Life is ever changing and ever flowing.

With the tides come new beginnings, and also endings.

Today is the summer solstice and the two year anniversary of Wildfire & Flowers. P & V are so grateful to everyone for these past two years! There's been so much growth and a beautiful flower garden has bloomed in this community.
But, as the co-hostesses share in this latest (and last) episode, it is also a finale for Wildfire & Flower.

It’s been a beautiful journey. And just because we will no longer be on this platform, P&V are forever and we will be in our own flows, with our creative projects.

If you aren’t already, we highly encourage you continue to follow us on our personal pages:

Tara Brach said the first step to nudging fear out of our lives is to accept it.

That means recognizing it’s there and saying, “OK, but it is not taking over.”

It’s a moment to:
Pause
Breathe
Feel
Release

Easier said than done sometimes, right?

Our limiting beliefs come with a cost, preventing us from expanding and embodying our full potential as people.

Marianne Williamson, Author of A Return to Love, has written: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?"

As we get wiser and the years go by, we get settled in ways and that includes who we surround ourselves with. Circles get smaller and that is so welcome. But as we grow, we still seek to expand our knowledge, our communities, and make new connections.

If you've been craving new environments, new conversations, new minds, and new energy but don't know how to get there... This episode is for you.

With love, P & V

All things are temporary. 🌿

Everything around is in a constant state of change, which is the beauty of impermanence.

A flower, once picked, only lasts for a short period of time. Before long, it will wilt before our very eyes, turning to gray & dust. The impermanence of life can help us appreciate the present moment. When we understand that everything is impermanent, we are less likely to become overly attached to things or people. We recognize that all things are fleeting, and that trying to hold onto them only causes suffering.

Love is freedom.

What would it be like to truly appreciate and savour each moment? When we recognize that the present moment is all that we have, and so there is nowhere else to be than right here.

In Episode 43, P&V chat about the benefit of microdosing on impermanence, or being aware of this fluctuating nature of everything around us.

Maximizing efficiency in life with joy 🌹💥.

Productivity can certainly help you achieve your goals and feel more fulfilled, but the process you take to get to the end goal is just as important.

Where is the joy? The laughter? The pleasure in the day to day, while one is being efficient.

Episode 42 can be listened to with link in bio.

Episode 41: are we free people?

This is quite the grand philosophical question - one that we could talk about for hours on end.

But for right now: we dived into this topic as it relates to our individual autonomy and what is happening globally.

As V eloquently put it: I am not free until we are all free.

The anxious attachment style has been coming up a lot lately for your co-hostesses.  

Although the secure attachment style is ideal... we have what we have, and it's our responsibility to unpack and understand our way back to harmony, so that we can work towards what we want (which is to be secure in all of our relationships & attachments).  

In this episode, we discuss how even though you can be secure in yourself, there is still anxiousness in unmet needs. This is so real when we live in tandem and in community.  Sometimes this may lead to having difficult conversations, embodying frustration, lowering unrealistic expectations, and recognizing where you hyperfocus.

Energy goes where attention flows, so be mindful of who you breathe life into.

Grief, heartbreak, anger… there are always a range of emotions that are less than favourable to go through.

Perhaps it’s in your blind spot, or you always knew about this habit, but it’s possible to avoid feeling and going through the waves of such depths when we intellectualize our emotions.

At what point is simply talking about a situation productive or avoidant, when you don’t want to feel what is happening in your body.

As we always say, to feel is to heal.. but first, we must take a look at what is blocking us and why we choose not to feel.

Perhaps there’s a shift in the story..

In June 2021, we, Paula Dicu & Vanessa Demello, created a self development podcast, Wildfire and Flowers, a space where we seek to deepen our awareness of what it means to show up for yourself.

Commitment to self is an integral part of creating the routines that will help you strengthen your mind and create the life you enjoy waking up to every single day.

Take this as an opportunity to re-evaluate how you are optimizing your time in order to produce the high quality work and achieve those strong client relations.

In order to make this a reality, you need to observe your thought process and the actions (or inactions) you are taking as a result of it.

We have created a workshop: ‘Developing Discipline: Challenging Motivation & Increasing Vitality', where we invite you to build your creative confidence and strengthen your mind through a disciplinary framework.

Our goal is to leave you with various tools and strategies for everyday success so you can work smarter, not harder. It’s time to think beyond your limitations in your work and personal life.

We have many years of combined experience working in marketing & creative direction, and with an avid interest in self development, we have mentored and learned mindful and somatic based coaching techniques that can get you out of the vortex of your mind.

Attendees will leave with:
- Tools to strengthen the discipline muscle and navigate perfectionism.
- The recognition of personal roadblocks and awareness of the growth mindset.
- Knowing how to overcome ‘procrastination’
- The guide to dismantle limiting habits.
