About the episode:     Ahhh! So excited! Fasten your seat belts because Lily and Alecia shared SO MUCH on today's podcast episode about spirituality! Today, I interviewed two special people in my life about the topic of spirituality. These ladies broke down the concept on how to get started with spirituality while also debunking the myth that spirituality == religion. We talked about the hardships that come with inner work and reconnecting with yourself, while also discussing how important this journey is for your life. Spirituality doesn't need to be an abstract concept that gets shoved to the way-side. It's time to get WOKE, am I right?

About the episode:   Hi there, I'm so excited! Today I interviewed Stephanie, a friend of mine that I met in the online space, who specializes in helping busy women stop dieting, end binge eating, and increase their confidence. She has gone through her own journey of dealing with her own disordered eating habits and now coaches other women in the healing process. We talked all about binge eating, emotional eating, how we can ground ourselves when we feel ourselves spiraling, the importance of being present with your food, and also using sensory methods to increase endorphins when we feel the urge to binge eat.

About the episode:   Today I talked all about engaging with your dog! How do you build a better bond and strengthen your relationship with your dog? Get off the phones and Netflix and start to be present in SIMPLE tasks. I opened up a little, too, about my relationship with Luna after almost a year and a half. Exercise, play, and structured training are huge ways to engage with your dog. Incorporating this time into your day will ripple effect into other areas of your life, and other areas of your dog as well! I end the podcast discussing different engagement games you can play with your own dog. I also wrote a blog post about the examples for these engagement games on riseandrealize.com. ------------------ Connect with my dog account: Instagram: @thelovablepack ------------------ Connect with me:  Instagram: @soaringwithsarah Facebook Community: The Release to Realize Community Website: riseandrealize.com

About the episode:   Today I brought Bridget Nicholls to the podcast to discuss all things green and clean in our lives! Bridget has a BRCA gene mutation and with this has come a journey of discovering toxins in our day-to-day lives- all starting with a chemical in her make-up. We talked all about greenwashing with chemicals vs. natural products in the stores, making your own cleaning and self-care products at home, and tips to become a more informed consumer against big industry. We also discussed how to make small changes in your life without becoming overwhelmed and how to use the knowledge that you have at your fingertips. Finally, we talked more about using essential oils!

About the episode:   Oh man... The raw... The real... The honest look inside of my head, after a full year of internal struggle is finally being released. I feel that I can finally be myself without any fear of judgment, without any insecurity, without any doubt or shame. Nothing. No burden to bear. No weight to carry. Just me in my full self. Today on the episode, I present the unfiltered, unedited, jumble of emotions discussing this big shift in my life. I haven't told many people about this yet (not even my parents, folks). I have been struggling to find the wording to describe the nature of it all. And really, it's simple yet SO c o m p l e x. Because I've made it out to be hard on myself. Just listen. Listen for who I am, why I chose this life, and what I'm going to become from leaving my comfort zone.   ------------------ Connect with me:  Instagram: @soaringwithsarah Facebook Community: The Release to Realize Community Website: riseandrealize.com

About the episode:   Ah! I'm so excited. Today, I'm bringing to the podcast my first interview with Jessica Keith. We talked about so many things, including social anxiety, human connection, and talking with strangers. It's interesting how we go about day-to-day without interacting much with each other. What if we flipped that script and decided to actually talk to each other? Listen more to learn more about Jess's story and how she's combatted fears of talking with people to build a deeper connection with others. Also, listen for lots of giggles, lol! ------------------ Connect with Jessica Keith: Instagram: @jessicamariecoaching Facebook: The Happy + Full Collective ------------------ Giveaway Details!

About the episode:  Everything dog training. In today's episode, I begin with talking about my journey working with over 10 dogs. Then, I go on to discuss 3 training topics that I think will most benefit dog owners right off the bat. Those include: Free-shaping and luring when introducing a command. Examples used are sit and touch/paw/shake.  The importance of saying a command one time and how to handle distractions surrounding commands. Also, why they might not listen to what you're asking! What motivates your dog? No seriously... it might not be food! Also, you get to hear me try to figure out the word "repetition" from "reputation". Lol. I have a cool announcement at the end of the episode that I think you all will love and benefit from! This one is for those who want to learn more about commands/tricks and want to learn NOW. ------------------ Mentioned in today's episode: Pupcakes Training in Champaign County, IL Illini Service Dogs: https://www.illiniservicedogs.com/  Luna & Atlas: @thelovablepack ------------------ Giveaway Details!

About the episode What does your identity mean to you? Do you feel that you cling to your profession as who you are? Do you bounce back and forth on who you are? A graduate student who's stressed, broke, and busy. A stay at home mom that's either having it easy with home life or living in complete chaos.

Your identity is sooooo more than your career. So find out what works for you and SERVES you! Be more open to different ways of doing things instead of operating status quo. Because in the end, we truly know ourselves the best. ------------------ Giveaway Details! Subscribe, download, and share this podcast episode on your IG story or FB for an entry in a giveaway!
