Welcome to the 9th episode of the podcast! Today is a special day because I have one of my most treasured + best friends as a guest. We have known each other for a huge portion of our lives, which means that we have seen a lot of ups and downs, experienced a lot of firsts, and we’ve basically grown up together. In this episode, we’re going to discuss what friendship means, how it evolves as we grow older, and how relationships, in general, stand the test of time and distance.I am not a doctor or therapist and do not diagnose by any means, but rather aim to be your guide in a journey toward a more mindful life.

In this episode, I thought it would be great to do a "get to know me" episode where I will answer some questions about my personal life, my background, and get into my personal self-care routine living with a chronic illness. Just to preface, I am not a doctor or a healthcare professional by any means, I am simply here to tell you my story and how I have chosen to better myself. If you are seeking professional help, please consult a professional. This is based on my opinions and experiences only.

I have found that a great way to distract myself from questioning my decisions and get more excited about the big changes that are happening is to get creative. When I say get creative, I really mean use that brain and do whatever it is that gets your imagination going! You don’t have to be an artist or an expert by any means, you only need one essential tool: passion.This podcast is hosted by Kayleigh Maes.  You can check out the blog/website at www.mindfulandmade.comI am not a doctor and do not diagnose by any means, but rather aim to be your guide in a journey toward a more mindful life.

Slow living looks different for everyone – for some, it’s spending a whole day binging Queer Eye in your sweats. Guilty. For others, it’s taking a hike in nature. Slow living might even mean twenty minutes spent chatting with your loved ones about their day when you would have normally spent that twenty minutes working your butt off. When we slow down, beautiful things happen. We recognize change and beauty. Most importantly, we recognize ourselves again! This podcast is hosted by Kayleigh Maes.  You can check out the blog/website at www.mindfulandmade.comI am not a doctor and do not diagnose by any means, but rather aim to be your guide in a journey toward a more mindful life.

Welcome to Episode 2 of the podcast! In this episode, I am going to be talking about how we can nurture our spirits, especially during times like these, filled with so much uncertainty and tension.

This is the Mindful & Made podcast, a short-form podcast centered on mindful making, doing, and living. We will be talking about self-care, creativity, and so much more. Super excited to have you all here. As you may know, my beloved friend Gabi and I have another podcast called wherever you grow, which is where we get to have more of a conversation about related topics. This short-form podcast is meant to be a short and sweet guide through mindfulness in everyday life – specifically for those who want to slow down a little and live a more mindful life. In this episode, I want to jump into a topic that means a lot to me, which is being your most “you” self. I thought, what better way to start this out than by talking about finding your center and letting your true inner light shine.This podcast is hosted by Kayleigh Maes.You can check out the blog/website at www.mindfulandmade.comI am not a doctor and do not diagnose by any means, but rather aim to be your guide in a journey toward a more mindful life.
