How often do you use “having a busy schedule” as an excuse not to prioritize mindfulness?This morning, I woke up with a knot in my neck. I have been staying up later than normal, have a lot to do, can’t shut off my brain, and haven’t been feeling as energized as usual.When this happens, I know immediately that something needs to change. I notice that I start lying to myself as to why I can’t prioritize self-care even though I have control over my schedule 75% of the week.This typically means swapping my first hour of computer work for stretching and yoga. Swapping any “extras” on my calendar for time at home. Swapping expectations of finishing an endless to-do list for getting the bare minimum done so that I can slow down my pace.This week’s episode is for those of us who are TOO BUSY to spend 4 hours every day spent in self-care which, tbh, is most of us.Submit your episode topic recommendation to me at intentionalwithmaria@gmail.com.

How much of your life do you spend complaining?One of our listeners, Meggen, shared her word of the year (from episode 60). In this week’s show, we’re diving into how to squeeze the most joy out of our lives in simple ways despite the chaos and BS of everyday life.A good place to become aware of how often we complain. It’s completely normal for things not to be sunshine and rainbows all of the time, but when we become aware of our thoughts, words, and actions, we are faced with the reality that we are currently creating.When you think, speak, and act in accordance with positive energy, you create more of that around you.When you think, speak, and act in accordance with annoyances/complaints, you affirm them and therefore, create MORE of that.Submit your episode topic recommendation to me at intentionalwithmaria@gmail.com.

In today’s episode, I wanted to begin the conversation about feeling less stressed and more joyful during holiday season.
I remember when I was a kid and this time of year meant watching movies, classroom parties, decorating cookies, and feeling so excited for Santa to visit my home. My intention with this episode is to bring back some of that nostalgia and less on the obsession with materials that constantly fill our social media feeds.

One month ago, my friend Nikki & I hosted a sold-out workshop focused on helping attendees go from the busy chaos of summer to feeling more balanced and centered into fall.
The most ironic part of this experience was just 2 days before, we had a big storm in Northeast Ohio where both of us lost power for a few days. Preparing for an event is stressful enough, on top of being thrown off routine and some not-so-great nights of sleep? #Godspeed
Today, I’m sharing a recap of the success of our workshop which included beginner yoga, guided meditation, yummy bites, local vendors, and a teaching-style keynote I gave to help attendees build an action plan for when they get to a stress level that feels unmanageable. Instead of encouraging you to slow down and say yes to less (even though those things are true), I’m taking a unique approach to sharing tactical advice for those of you juggling a thousand things and how to find sanity in the midst instead of always taking the easy way out.
As the old saying goes, “A jack of all trades is a master at one, but oftentimes better than a master of one.”

Most people think of exercising as a chore- Just another thing added to your to do list stacked on top of 20 things that you already don’t have enough time in the day to get done.
I have a different perspective given that fitness has been a major part of my routine for the last 12 years. In fact, it’s the center of my grounding routine as the quality and effort that I give during my workouts determines the quality and effort I give to every other area of my life.
I truly don’t believe movement is something you have to dread. Actually, quite the opposite. I’ve found the easiest way to stick to self-discipline is to trick yourself into enjoying the activity, at least for a little while until you genuinely find yourself looking forward to intentionally moving your body each week. This episode will teach you how.

Do you know the feeling of being burnt out and unmotivated when nothing sounds as good as binge-watching Netflix on the couch?
This episode is for those of you who want to get back in the swing of things and feel inspired to wake up and soak up the most joy out of each day!
This was one of my favorite episodes to record because it’s something I went through very recently, so I hope you find as much joy in listening as I did recording it.
You might be thinking today’s episode will include a laundry list of ways to junk up your free time with mile-long to-do lists and unrealistic expectations of how productivity in your limited time spent not working.
But you’ll be pleasantly surprised to hear my perspective on how doing nothing / traditional “time-wasters” can actually be a blessing in disguise if you’re doing what you love!
And if you are genuinely looking for better ways to spend free time to avoid the endless Tiktok doom scroll, there’s also a handful of practical tools for you.
Today’s episode is about releasing the guilt of “being lazy” and enjoying the practice of just existing, a lost art that we need a reminder of every once in awhile.

Today I’m sitting down with my girl Alexa whom I met last year after reading her first published book. I saw that she was a Cleveland local, and was enticed by the title. As soon as I cracked it open on the plane ride to vacation last October, I immediately had a lump in my throat as it led off with her experience of unexpectedly losing her father at a young age.
Alexa is a healer, speaker, and author. She is Cleveland-made but adventure-grown. A full-time feeler, powered by love and hugs. A grief advocate and the stranger who will be your best friend in 30 seconds. She is the author of the book Your Permission Slip: To Self-Acceptance, Forgiveness, and Letting Go and her first book Livin’ the dream … today because tomorrow is not promised and the host of the forthcoming podcast me / you / us / we.

These 5 tips don’t require much time or resources, only the desire to soak up the most joy out of each day. I feel the most joyful when watering each area of my life like plants in a garden.

Today’s podcast episode walks you through how I workshop my thought process in a journal when I hit a plateau in reaching my goals. This is how I coach myself to shift perspective away from feeling like a victim to being solution-oriented in finding the root of the challenges presented at each new level of success. Listen to this when you feel like you’re failing, everything is going wrong, or that you can’t figure out how to gain momentum toward reaching your goals!
In today’s episode, I’m sharing mindset hacks to set yourself up for more energy, clarity, and focus. We’ve all heard the overdone “eat healthy, drink water, get enough sleep” advice, and while it’s tried and true, sometimes that 3 p.m. slump just gets ya!
This episode is packed with nuggets of productivity and mindset shifts, so prepare accordingly with your notebook and paper to jot down ideas. I’m on a continuous journey of trial and error of tricks to feel more energized because I have a high standard for my work and like to accomplish it in a timely manner to still have some left over to give to my fiance and workout each evening!
This episode is perfect for those of you looking to maximize your time and energy to feel more clear-minded and proud of the work you do and life you live.

Today, my intention card pull read: I choose to believe in my inner strength. My gratitude card said: I’m grateful for self-confidence.
I felt inspired so I quickly grabbed my iPhone to record this as I’ve been struggling with self-confidence these past few months while feel defeated by challenge after challenge.
And you know what?
I’m better because of them. I couldn’t see it at the time (cue laying in bed staring at the ceiling wondering how to continue forward when all I want to do is quit my business and sleep all day), but I wanted to share some thoughts on why you should not give up even when you feel like there’s no way you have the energy or motivation to continue pursuing your dreams, personal growth, and living the best life you possibly can.

You know how they say when you make plans, God laughs?
In today’s episode, we’re discussing my go-to prayer when I’m not sure what the next right step to take in life is. It allows me to kick back with popcorn in hand while waiting for The Universe to drop the next project into my lap vs racing around like a chicken with their head cut off, burning myself TF out unnecessarily.

It’s absolutely wonderful that so many of you in this community are small business owners, aspiring entrepreneurs, or creatives in general. It’s even more wonderful that I’ve received messages asking for advice and feedback on how I’ve grown my own business to help you on your journey.

You know that song by Christian French that goes “Thank God what I wanted back then isn’t what I have now?”
When Tony (my fiance) and I were looking for our first home last spring, my entire Facebook feed was FULL of people buying beautiful homes. We had all of our ducks in a row, visited 30+ homes, got denied on 3 offers (over-asking, mind you), and left feeling broken-hearted that what got a person a starter home in 2019 did not, in fact, apply to the housing market in 2022.
All I could dream about last year was finding the perfect place. I look back now and sing this Christian French tune with deeper gratitude that I did not get what I thought I wanted.
Today’s episode is for those of you who have ever dreamed of how amazing it would be to try living in someone else’s shoes.
The grass is greener where you water it.

It is my belief that our intuition (our soul) guides us throughout our lives because it already knows the direction we are meant to head in toward well-being, peace, & harmony. This can be incredibly helpful when we are faced with a decision by asking ourselves logically if this makes sense and also if this decision feels good / will lead to a more fulfilled existence.
While this valuable information is always available to us, it can be difficult to access our intuition when society & the media pressures us to live conventionally based on being successful by chasing money, material, and status.

On this week’s episode, we are talking about routines that set you up for success.
If you asked me 2 years ago, I would have shared a detailed list of what I accomplish before work back when I woke up at 5 a.m. everyday.
While that served me in my early 20s, my days look much different now that I’ve leaned into prioritizing hormone health & matching my energy with the natural circadian rhythm. I no longer wake up at 5 a.m. nor do I accomplish much before starting work each day.
Now, I’m much more present and focused on getting the most out of each moment– being instead of doing. Instead of rushing to post on Insta, I focus on eating my breakfast slowly and chewing each bite. Instead of forcing myself to read, I practice deep breathing and positive mantras.
I was afraid that if I didn’t have a detailed morning routine, I’d be lazy & my business would fail. To find out how this unconventional method works and helped me actually GROW my business & lower my stress levels, tune into today’s episode!
This week, I’m sharing my experience in choosing to create my own experience vs believing someone else’s idea of how we should experience our lives. I believe that raising your vibration can help you feel good, achieve your goals, and enjoy your life if you choose to allow it.
I share a few ways to accomplish this in the most simple way possible. A few of the most helpful tools include:

In today’s episode, you’ll learn my favorite tool for grounding.
Practicing grounding helps you to exhale, relax your shoulders, and focus on the present moment. It helps you activate the side of your brain that lowers the volume of the judgmental voice- The one that criticizes your every move, overthinks, and creates unnecessary drama.
Most of us want to feel less stressed & more mindful as to not miss the small moments (that are actually the big ones). Yet we move too quickly trying to chase an end goal that is way less impactful than the kind of people become on the journey…
So where do we begin? How do we fit one more thing into our already too-busy days to feel less stressed?

For those listening for the first time, I’d like to introduce who I am and what I do! Im a wellness blogger who helps women achieve their health goals and enjoy the journey through 3 different venues- social media/blog/podcast, motivational public speaking, guided wellness journals
Mission: is to provide women (and a few good men) a weekly dose of wellness tools + motivation improve their self confidence through a solid foundation of taking the best possible care of themselves.
3 main topics this podcast will cover, as I shared in the intro is motivation through pep talks, healthy habit building tools through my guided journals, and tru self care through peronal experience, stories, and recommendations.
It will mostly be solo episodes because my favorite podcasts are the ones where the hosts talk about their routines, habits, and thoughts so that’s what I want to provide.
