A podcast where you can expect to hear all things about the realities of life that you may or may not go through, but can definitely still learn from. Your host, Mikayla Smith, discusses all the wonderful and terrible and crazy things happening in life in her early 20s. This podcast will serve you as a work-in-progress guide and answer (or at least try to) all the questions you have about living a lifestyle you thrive in and the questions that we all have about adulting. Welcome to the party, we are so glad you're here.
This episode is all about how to have intention, motivation, an d discipline when it comes to reaching your goals. You may not always have all 3 at the same time, but if you ever have none it's time dive deep and find them within in. Thank you so much for being here :)

"Don’t let the 31st of December or 1st of January stress y’all out, friends. Every day is a new year. Every moment is. If it’s cold where you are, maybe you can hibernate and keep warm. Manifest every new thing in your own time or save it for the spring when every other living thing decides to bloom, too." - Zazie Beetz

In this episode Mikayla reflects on her past year of podcasting and talks about a realization she made while reflecting. We are stronger than we think. When you think about life situations that you have gotten through, it was not by accident. It's because you were strong and kept going. We all have some fight in us, it's time we realized it and fought back against the world when it throws its punches. Thank you so much for being here on this journey :)

This episode is about the inevitable falling off track from your goals, habits, and lifestyle and some ways to work towards getting back on. Falling off is the most common thing that happens when working towards a new goal or lifestyle change and it’s okay that it happens! What’s most important is allowing yourself the rest and reset you need and then getting back on and continuing to push yourself to be a better you. Nobody’s perfect and everyday is a new day and a fresh start to try again. You’ve got this!

This episode is about getting closer to your dream life through the use of vision boards! I discuss the basic foundation for manifesting (which I’m still learning about), the use and benefit is of vision boards, and how to create one of your own! They’ve been nothing but beneficial to me and I know they’ll at least be fun for you to do :) if you’ve ever wanted something so bad you dream about it, creating a vision board moves you towards turning those dreams to reality! You don’t know if something works until you try.

This episode is about the importance of creating a schedule for yourself, especially during summer break when you feel like you don't need to. Without a schedule it is easy to lose sight of your goals and your purpose when you could be making the most of your free time! I take the time to go through the steps I plan to follow to create a schedule that works for me and makes me feel good and I encourage you to do the same. You may not stick to it the first few tries but you will notice a difference the times that you do :) Thank you so much for being here.

This episode is about the joy you can find in being alone despite what you may think. We often see being alone with ourselves as a bad thing but it doesn't have to be! Being in your own company can lead to endless discoveries about yourself and will aid you in this journey of life. If you're scared, don't be! You may be alone physically, but you're never really alone and I hope this episode makes you feel better about it :) Thank you so much for being here.

This episodes discusses the importance of knowing when and how to prioritize yourself. Something that is so easily overlooked can make a big difference in your mindset and your life overall, so why do we forget about it? It's easy to get wrapped up in other peoples' lives, especially when it's people you care about, but you're doing more harm than good when you forget to put your needs at your forefront. You should be most important to you, give yourself the attention you deserve! Thank you so much for being here :)

This episode is an introduction to one of the most important life skills you can have, goal-setting. You may not always reach them, but having the ambition and motivation to try is what you need to continue to set them and eventually crush every goal you have! Setting goals is often overlooked and when it is seen, it looks like a very daunting and time consuming task but this episode is all you need to get started and set even the tiniest of goals (which are still important!). Remember that you're not alone and you got this! :)
