Do you ever feel pressured to do it all and all at once? It can even feel like there’s no room to drop anything because you’re the one responsible for getting it done. The truth is, we’ve been conditioned to believe we don’t have the option of choosing what we get to focus on. In this week’s episode, guest Kristyn Weeks talks with Mariah Chante about how she has learned to say “no” to doing it all and how it has helped her not only enjoy life more, but live well! This episode will encourage you to connect to what is most valuable to you and calm your fears when it comes to choosing a few things to focus on rather than trying to do it all. It’s time to stop sacrificing our health and wellbeing because of unrealistic societal pressures!

Ever feel like you have been working on the same health goal for years?
I remember a time where whenever I was getting back into my workout routine, it centered around losing weight. I would go through periods of gaining weight and losing weight and got to the point where I accepted that that’s what working out was there for…it keeps my weight in check. But then I asked myself, why I could never seem to stay at a comfortable weight? Why wasn’t my progress something I was able to maintain? In today’s episode, host Mariah Chante discusses how you may be struggling with seeing your health and wellness goals through. It can be easy to get caught up in the progress you have or have not made, but it’s important to remember that that’s not where the journey ends. Watch for some insight and tips on how you can see your goals through!

Does self-love just sound like a buzzword?
That’s probably because the way we see self-love represented on social media tends to focus on glamorous investments and external things. While this is one way self-love can be represented, actually loving yourself is much deeper than “treating” yourself. In today’s episode, host Mariah Chante discusses why self-love culture is misguided! We talk through what self-love actually is and how you can be better at loving yourself!

What's more important, liking your job because of the work you do or how your job makes you feel? In today's episode we dive into what occupational wellness is and how it really is the key in choosing a career path that you enjoy.
Whatever you do for work, a 9-5, work as an entrepreneur, or are a stay at home mom, knowing what exactly it is that you like and dislike about your job and how it's impacting you is important. Occupational wellness is just one of the 8 dimensions of wellness, but like any other dimension, it can impact all the other dimensions if you're not mindful and intentional about your work.

Today we’re talking about something that could be getting in the way of you being able to stay committed to your health and wellness goals, and it’s probably not what you think it is!
If we are unable to look at our life with a decent amount of clarity, that is going to affect how you show up.
I learned that this clarity is affected by what I believe about myself. And how I act when it comes to achieving my goals is directly related to what I believe about myself.
This begs the question, what do you actually believe about yourself?

Ever feel like you are always starting, stopping, and starting over again with your health and wellness goals? Well in this episdoe, I talk about my story and how I learned that taking care of myself was more about the internal work! Going through my struggles has led me to where I am today and for that I am grateful, because it's allowed me to show up authentically! Learning what works for you isn't a linear process, but it is worth it to keep going.
