Hello my lovelies!

Sometimes it can be hard to let go. Actually most of the time it is. Maybe we were holding onto someone or an experience or an opportunity, thinking this was it. But then it wasn't.

And we can have such a mixture of feelings. It's all ok. There can be anger and sadness and frustration while also feeling peace, happiness, relief, etc.

I tend to cry when going through all of this. I was crying right before recording this episode.

And while we can be grateful for the experience and the lessons and grow through it all, we can also be grieving it. Feel all the feelings. Accept it. Allow it. And move through it. It's all ok. You are doing amazing. And leaving this old chapter makes way for the new. You've Got This!

It is the end of 2024 and beginning of 2025. Sometimes people talk about how much they've accomplished and/or what new things they will accomplish. That's great if it works for them. But for many people, that can seem so daunting to even think about. Maybe for you, just getting out of bed was all you could do. That's ok. You are worthy and important no matter what. You are worthy and important because you are YOU. You've Got This!

On today's episode, I welcome 2x international best-selling author, podcast host, award-winning professional artist, coach, speaker and activist, Catana L. Malinowski. Her latest book, "Why Are You Happy?" is a heartwarming story about a little blue whale named Happy who gets caught in some challenging situations but remembers to remain calm and through it all, he learns how to be more resilient.

Catana and I discuss blockages, the conscious and unconscious mindsets and energies like fear, judgment, perfectionism, etc. that can keep us stuck and prevent us from moving forward in life. Catana shares a lot of her own story and how she was able to keep going and break through many of her own blockages by becoming aware of what they were, being curious, open, and willing to challenge herself and adapt. Learning to love ourselves is key to overcoming those barriers and blockages in our lives.

"I learned to love myself which is probably the best gift ever because that also unloaded many blocks. I walked through the shadows. I went into those dark spaces of mine from the past that I was afraid to ever talk about and I gave it love and I gave it acceptance because it was about getting me to here; keeping me safe, protecting me. No judgment, no right or wrong. I was learning where I was seeing those as weaknesses and finding the strengths in there."

Catana mentioned our mutual friend, Katie, who helped her realize her creativity block with her art for the past few years.

Katie loves to help people clear their creative blocks.
