      I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to actually say the thing, even when it feels scary.

      After listening to Carty & Raka’s story from @Hinge’s No Ordinary Love audiobook, I found myself reflecting on all the times I’ve struggled to say how I really feel in relationships - and what I’m learning about trusting my own voice.

      Their story was a reminder that sometimes, being honest and saying the thing you’re afraid to say can be what opens the door to a deeper connection with the right person.

      Carty & Raka’s full story, along with the other real couples featured in No Ordinary Love, is available to listen to for free on Spotify.

    Listening to her intuition changed everything… motherhood, questioning societal norms, holistic living, and the beliefs she had to unlearn This week, my sister Vayla is on the podcast! We talk about how becoming a mom really pushed her to start listening to herself and questioning so many of the things she had always been told were “normal.” We get into her home birth, motherhood, holistic living, the beliefs she’s had to unlearn, and what it’s looked like to stop following everyone else’s rules and trust what actually feels right to her. We also talk about how that journey led her to start Belle Balm, her own handcrafted skincare company. I’m so excited for you guys to get to know my sister and hear more of her story. I hope this episode encourages you to listen to your own voice, even when it leads you somewhere different than you expected.
