have you surrendered to love today?

04/02/2022

will you listen to the discomfort or will you keep settling?

03/02/2022

just a little friendly reminder 💕 i know i can forget this sometimes!

28/01/2022

it’s okay if yesterday wasn’t your day. it’s okay if today isn’t your day. and it’s okay if tomorrow isn’t your day, either. the hope is that you’ll try and make it better through the little things that ultimately give you hope that one day it is going to be your day. if anything, one day it’s going to be the best day ❤️ keep trying and don’t lose hope!

26/01/2022

you are worthy of loving yourself regardless if you have become the version of yourself that you aspire to be. you will always be a work in progress, so why not embrace yourself and your progress while doing it?

25/01/2022

i have a challenge for you. well, it’s not really a challenge. it’s more of a task.

to yourself. wherever you are. i want you to say to yourself all the things you are proud of yourself for. sometimes there are things that we don’t like about ourselves, but there sure are a hell of a lot of more things that we like. so say them. make a list if you have to.

be proud of who you are! i sure know i’m proud of you ❤️

23/01/2022

your shoulders are looking a little tense there.

breathe, refresh, and restart. life is too short to live with a clenched jaw… you wanna have good oral health, don’t you??

have you heard our most recent episode on validation? out now on Spotify and Apple Podcasts! 🎉🥳

in this episode, mariana and i continue to speak vulnerably on the impacts of validation in our own lives. to seek validation is completely normal, and as humans, we are bound to feel things about ourselves that are unpleasant and that’s okay. but where validation becomes tricky is when we start to tie it to our self-worth.

you are beautiful. you are powerful. you are intelligent. you are compassionate. and you are so much more than a scale, a grade, and a hurtful comment. repeat it, reaffirm it, and believe it! there’s no need to tell you something you already know wholeheartedly ❤️

19/01/2022

daily affirmations ❤️✨

1. i am a boss.
2. i am fierce.
3. i am wildly attractive.
4. i am beautiful (inside & out).
5. i am considerate.
6. i am an incredibly hard worker.
7. i am POWERFUL!
8. i am worthy.
9. i am strong.
10. i am compassionate.

17/01/2022

you keep giving your love and trust to others… but are you pouring from an empty cup for yourself?

16/01/2022

i used to beat myself up for feeling any ‘negative’ emotion. “why am i sad right now? why am i mad right now?” so i would push them down as far as i could, so that i wouldn’t feel them anymore.

but here’s the twist. they would come back even stronger and completely tear me apart. so my tip for you: don’t push emotions aside and tell yourselves that you shouldn’t be feeling them. it’s normal to have these emotions, and it’s important that for our health and safety we deal with them accordingly.

1. recognize that you’re feeling upset, confused, angry, or whatever it may be. tell yourself, “i am feeling *insert emotion(s) here*”.
2. understand why you are feeling this way. what happened that is creating these feelings and emotions.
3. process, process, process. sit in these emotions and process the situation. rather than ignoring your emotions, put them front and centre to get a good look at them.
4. and finally, do whatever you need to do to let these emotions pass, whether that be going on a run/walk, popping on a face mask, meditation, or lighting a candle.

the more we push emotions aside and tell ourselves that we shouldn’t be feeling them, the more inadequate we end up feeling, and let me tell you, you are anything but inadequate ❤️

- cheers, christine

our newest episode on all things ‘validation’ is out now on a multitude of platforms, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify! 🎉✨ go have a listen! we hope you enjoy 😊

10/01/2022

Remember: it’s about the process, not the end destination. Spend more time doing, less time thinking.

10/01/2022

i’ve said it before, and i’ll say it again. everyone’s journey for growth is different, but no matter who you are, it will still be a process.

let’s all take a deep breath. i want you to take it all in, and enjoy the process ❤️

07/01/2022

do not feel guilty or selfish for taking rest days. hell, if you feel like you need rest WEEKS, take those weeks and feel like a boss! you deserve those days off, and you deserve the rest.

sometimes, i compare myself to others and think, “oh, those people are working real hard… am i wasting my time today?” NO! no more, brain! you can’t trick me anymore! i worked hard yesterday, and the day before, and the day before that. every break and chance i get to relax, are deserved.

you are your own person. we each have our own journeys. you deserve a break, when you decide to take that break.

it’s a slow learning process, but definitely one that i am taking with me during this new year in 2022! remember: you are not selfish, when expressing your needs ❤️

01/01/2022

HAPPY NEW YEAR 🥳 let’s rejuvenate our souls this 2022! start off strong by listening to our newest podcast episode, out on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!

have an amazing year ❤️

29/12/2021

hold on to your horses, because our newest episode entitled, “2021: the highs, the lows, and lessons for the new year”, is being released this morning at 8AM!

yes the new year is coming and that can be very exciting, so-much-so that we’re willing to drop this past year like it didn’t even happen. we felt like it would be important to reflect on our 2021, and we hope this inspires you to do the same! join mariana and i as we discuss the noteworthy, and not-so-noteworthy, mentions of the year, and the lessons we will take with us for the next.

we can’t wait to share this honest episode with you all! thank you for an amazing year! we love you ❤️

26/12/2021

you are smart
you are kind
you are powerful
you are worthy
you are loveable

and the list goes on… and on… and on.

23/12/2021

and it is not your job to prove that you are happy. and it is not your job to defend your island. live your life, and enjoy the beauty that it offers.

i’m constantly trying to prove my worth and defend my island. “i’m happy here, i promise.” “trust me, i’m great!” but i’m doing so much defending and not enough living.

you are loveable. you are deserving. go live that truth. there’s no need to prove it to people.

20/12/2021

keep living in love, keep being love, and keep being open to receiving love. you are worthy of affection, care, respect, safe spaces to be vulnerable, and kindness. don’t forget it ❤️

17/12/2021

wherever you are. whatever you’re doing. keep going. don’t give up. life may be tough, but you sure as hell are too ❤️

13/12/2021

finding yourself is a returning. a coming home to the person that you are capable of being… not the person that you have to strive to become. it’s about unearthing ❤️

09/12/2021

i hope so too ❤️

07/12/2021

word of the day! did you do it?

comment your sentences down below!

listen to our latest episode “full disclosure: it’s time we get comfortable with the uncomfortable” to hear some great conversation, but also to hear me REPEATEDLY mispronounce “transcendental” 😂🤷🏽‍♀️

07/12/2021

read that again: nothing is permanent. the you today is different from the you of yesterday which is different from the you tomorrow. keep going and striving for change.

05/12/2021

good morning, everyone 🥰 i hope you have an amazing day!

03/12/2021

everyone struggles, but your reactions to those struggles is what sets you apart from others.

when times are tough do you run?
or do you face them head on?
are you learning from those struggles to become a stronger, more beautifully complex being?

be beautiful. be kind. be brave. live your truth ❤️

5% of the things we do on a daily basis are conscious. the other 95% of our words and actions are subconscious in nature, from a place of autopilot. this is our nurture; the beliefs that have been instilled in us by the people around us since we were young. as generations progress, we clash with our parents and grandparents due to so many things, the largest being arguably the beliefs and values that we have learned to develop that differ from what our predecessors were given. this cultural shift can be huge, harming many of our closest familial relationships. one of the take-home messages from this episode is: forgive those around you for the behaviours that are instilled in them outside of their conscious awareness. you are allowed to be free of what beliefs your family raised you to have and develop your own. be patient and try to educate them on your position if they are willing to learn; and even if no one listens, all that matters is that you stand in your upmost integrity and stay unconditionally yourself.

new episode just went LIVE 🥳 in this second part of our feminism 101 series, we talk about creating spaces for men in the fight towards male and female equality, why the term “toxic masculinity” creates more harm than good, and why terms like this are only creating more divide and shame between us. listen now on spotify and apple podcasts!! 🥳 and let us know what you think: do you agree? 👇🏼
