A Bit From Within Podcast

Every week Felicia shares ‘a bit from within’, the ups and downs of daily life, what’s working, what’s not, and what’s helping on the path to deeper self love and personal transformation. Listeners say it feels like a weekly coffee chat with a friend, giving so much to relate to as well be inspired by.

Latest episode of the podcast: How looking back can help us move forward- especially in the places in life we’ve been a little stuck. It also helps when you’ve got the time and space to do so. #feelingstuck #movingforward #givemesomemotivation #downtoearth #podcastsforwomen #podcastsforperfectionists #perfectionistrecovery

Ever feel like you're dying to just move forward i

Ever feel like you're dying to just move forward in an area of your life you've been stuck, stuck, STUCK?
I've felt this so much over the last few years. Life's obstacles like a pandemic and the ripple effect of how it effected our personal life, social life, work life, bank account, etc.. That was REALLY stressful, and it's still stressful because that ripple effect keeps moving outwards. Perhaps we coped with stress through food, or escaping. Or we had to pour so much more of our energy into an area that left us without resources that support OUR needs.
I know MANY of you are trying to get back on track right now. I'm right there with you- that's why this week on the podcast, I'm opening up about the ways I'm looking back into my past to find missing pieces that can help me move forward. Specifically I'm talking about my relationship with food and my body, but this also relates to any area you might feel stuck right now. Check it out if this topic resonates with you right now- link in bio! 💕❤️

If you know me at all, you know I am fiercely passionate about self growth. But constantly feeling like you need to "improve yourself" is actually more of a trauma response than a virtue. We are not broken. Yes we can change, yes we can grow in ways that make us better than we used to be- but we should choose our growth for ourselves, not be bending ourselves to be better for those around us or for who society wants us to be.
This and some special insight into the first full moon of the summer are at the heart of this week's episode of the podcast! Wherever you listen to podcasts. <3 Link in Bio 💕

Thank you to everyone who reached out and wished m

Thank you to everyone who reached out and wished me happy birthday last week! It was the start to a very busy week and honestly I've just been "in it" in all kinds of wonderful and challenging ways since then.
I will say that the older I get the more comfortable I get with discomfort. I feel like I'm starting to learn how to breathe through temporary struggles- from big things like relationship hardships and financial difficulties all the way to small things like having a week with no free time and to do lists that feel super heavy.
That is much of what I am diving into this week on my podcast, I wanted to share my real thoughts on giving space to life's darkness- and how meeting yourself with a different expectations when you're really depressed or even stressed is so important. We can't expect ourselves to always respond to things the way we do when we're "good." It's vital to our wellbeing to have more self compassion and meet ourselves where we're at.
Also- at the beginning of the episode I'll share a little about this week's first New Moon of the summer and ways you can use it to set new intentions!

These days were very often being sold ways to crack the code- whether that be for weight loss, money management, passive income, becoming an influencer, etc. You name it- there's someone out there trying to sell you can easy solution to have more of what you want in your life.
The truth is that underneath our desire to have more is often A LOT of fear. Rational and irrational fears that often hold us back and keep us towards inaction rather than going for what we want.
This is the heart of today's episode of the podcast, featuring energetic and intuitive business coach, @aubriannakay. She shares her story, including how she had to break through and overcome debt and limiting beliefs to get to where she is now- and that it wasn't an overnight process.
We talk about the true magic that happens in your growth when you take things down to your foundation and work from there, and ways to move through imposter syndrome or information bypassing that can hold you back. And mostly, we talk a lot about fear- and how to honor your fear as part of your process instead of running away from it.
I know you'll be inspired by our convo. Listen in now wherever you get your podcasts! The link is in my bio 💕

This is a bit of a detour from my normal blog post

This is a bit of a detour from my normal blog posts, but I've been thinking quite a bit about the importance of our friendships- and how important it is to have friends who truly just listen to you.
In the last few years we've all been through so much- and while collectively it's been really hard, it's easy to brush the long lasting effects of that off and expect one another to be on the up and up once again.... and yet many of us aren't. We're struggling.
This post is not only to encourage those who feel the heavy weight of life right now, but also serves as a reminder for those who have maybe forgotten just how important being a good friend and listener is. Now's not the time for advice, game planning, or passing judgment. Now more than ever, we can use genuine support and empathy.

Struggling with burnout? 🙋‍♀️ Trust me, I

Struggling with burnout? 🙋‍♀️ Trust me, I've been dealing with it too. And the thing is, it seems like everywhere I turn there's more and more people talking about the exhaustion, the kind that's not going away as fast as it used to. So many of us are struggling to "bounce back."
That's why today on the A Bit From Within Podcast I'm sharing some real talk about getting out of burn out- including the reminder that it takes time! Healing takes time.
For so long we've lived with the idea that fast is best. Getting things done quickly is good. ASAP is standard. So slow must mean bad. Taking your time, bad. And time spend resting? Definitely bad. We may *know* that's not true, but we sure hold ourselves to those standards.
Tune in for some real encouragement in this area, or share with someone you know who could use that boost of support for their stress, anxiety, and fatigue. ❤

"Your darkness is just as important and valid as t

"Your darkness is just as important and valid as the most shining, joyful, and light places in your life." So often when we're struggling or things feel hard we start to question whether we've done something wrong to deserve it. We've been conditioned to feel good things happen to us because we are good, so bad things must be happening because we are bad- but this couldn't be farther from the truth.
For every peak there is a valley. For that is heavy, there can also be lightness. On this week's episode of the pod, I'm sharing about just how hard it is to live in a world where all we see from everyone else is the highlight reel, and the struggle of not wanting to seem like a negative person or a downer when you're going through real tough things in life.
I feel this is an important message to share because of how many of us are unnecessarily beating up on ourselves because our life's not perfect. Perfection is an illusion. Perfect shouldn't be the goal. So instead, let's allow ourselves to just be real, be honest, and to know that it's all a part of the process.

When everything starts going wrong one of the best

When everything starts going wrong one of the best things you can do is PAUSE. For many of this feels wrong. Like our lack of control will spin us out and permanently destroy our lives- but actually the pause is an act of acceptance. Whether you hang up the phone, take a few breaths, crawl into bed, order take out, cry it out, or even just go to sleep- when you have time to have space you’ll find your way again. #advicefromaperfectionist #perfectionists #struggling #discouraged #takeabreak #giveyourselfabreak #showgentleness #abitfromwithin #stopandsmelltheroses #selflovejourney
