Trying Not to Care

What if the things you wanted so badly didn’t work out because you would have ended up hating them? In this episode, we’re talking about rejection, redirection, divine timing, and learning to trust that things are working out exactly how they’re supposed to. From relationships and friendships to career opportunities and major life milestones, sometimes we’re so attached to the idea of something working out that we fail to see it might not actually be what’s best for us.

We’ll talk about letting go of what isn’t meant for you, finding the go...

HAPPY NOVEMBER!! 🤎 In this episode, we're talking all about taking care of yourself this month, without feeling like you need to be constantly productive or disciplined. From being more intentional about our mindset and not letting the little things ruin our month, to finding ways to move your body that you genuinely enjoy, prioritizing rest, nourishing yourself, and making more time for the little things that bring you joy. This is your reminder to slow down, romanticize your everyday life, and make the most of the season we're in instead of wishing it away. Here's to no bad days in...

What’s scarier than Halloween? LOVE BOMBING. 👻 This week, we’re talking about the difference between genuine interest and love bombing, the red flags we overlook in the talking stage, and how to stop falling for someone’s potential instead of their actions.

In this episode, I’m talking about the Cornell 7, the “not all men” conversation, and the reality of living as a woman in a world where we’re constantly taught how to protect ourselves, yet so often questioned when something happens to us.

This episode isn’t me saying that every man is dangerous. It’s about why so many women feel like we have to be cautious all the time, why we don’t always know who is safe, and why somehow the blame so often ends up being put back on us. 

I know this is a...

In this episode, I talk about why people will always have opinions about you and why you shouldn't care. From projection and insecurity to outgrowing friendships, setting boundaries, and putting yourself out there, we’ll get into why being authentic and ambitious sometimes mean being misunderstood.

You can’t live a life that’s true to you while constantly worrying about how it looks to everyone else.

Being kind doesn’t make you a pushover...being kind without boundaries does. 😐 In this episode, I talk about the difference between having a good heart and abandoning yourself to keep everyone else comfortable.

I also break down 5 practical ways to be kind without being a pushover:
1. Being kind without needing to sacrifice your boundaries
2. Give because you want to, not because you feel obligated to
3. Be soft in tone but firm in substance
4. Be interested without becoming responsible
5. Match effort instead of constantly compensating for other people

I’M MARRIED!!! 💍🤍 After almost 10 years together, Josh and I finally got married!

As I step into a new chapter of my life, I’ve been thinking a lot about how much pressure I put on myself throughout my 20s to have everything figured out. In this episode, I’m talking about the anxiety that comes with feeling behind...whether it’s your career, money, relationships, or just not knowing what you’re doing with your life. I’m sharing some of the things I wish I understood earlier, like why changing your mind isn’t failure, why experiences aren’t a waste of time or money, and why you don’t need a 10-year p...

4 years ago, I almost quit podcasting because I felt like I was wasting my time and no one was listening. Two weeks later, I had an idea to promote my podcast on TikTok, and that one video completely changed everything.

In this episode, I’m taking you guys behind the scenes of how I went from working a job I didn’t love to quitting, becoming my own boss, starting Trying Not to Care, and eventually turning social media and podcasting into my fu...

Friendship breakups can be just as painful as romantic ones (sometimes even more painful.) We're taught to look out for the red flags in relationships, but we don't talk nearly enough about the red flags that show up in unhealthy friendships.

In this episode, I'm breaking down four types of friends you should look out for..
1. the friend who resents your growth
2. the friend who turns everything into a competition
3. the friend who constantly talks badly about their other friends
4. the friendship "love bomber"

As I enter into the last year of my 20s, I want to talk about the fear and pressure that can come with aging. In this episode, I talk about society’s obsession with youth (especially for women), romanticizing past versions of ourselves, and how confidence, self-worth, and what actually matters evolves with age. If you’ve ever felt like your value has an expiration date, I hope this conversation leaves you feeling more at peace, more confident, and maybe even excited to grow older. 🌷🫶🏻💭

Some people aren't looking for a resolution...they're looking for conflict. Instead of constantly defending yourself, over-explaining your boundaries, and engaging with someone who thrives on fighting, choose to walk away. Protect your peace over trying to prove a point.

Today's episode covers...
❤️‍🩹 Some people are committed to misunderstanding you
❤️‍🩹 There’s no point in arguing with someone who’s ego is more important than your relationship 
❤️‍🩹 The difference between someone who wants resolution vs. someone who wants to win

What if the thing people call you "cringe" for today is the very thing that makes you successful tomorrow? In this episode, I talk about why pursuing the unconventional route often comes with criticism, judgment, and very little support at the beginning. People tend to make fun of others who choose to live their lives differently, but the truth is: people often mock what they secretly wish they had the courage to do themselves.

If you've ever felt judged for putting yourself out there, posting online, chasing a creative dream, or choosing a path that people around...

Welcome to your post-Valentine's Day clarity episode 🥴 If the past month has had you randomly thinking about your ex and wondering if you actually miss them… consider this your sign that you probably don’t miss them, you’re just lonely.

In this episode, I talk about how nostalgia can trick us into romanticizing the past, why missing someone doesn’t always mean you want them back, and how loneliness can blur the line between love and familiarity. You don't miss THEM, you just miss having someone.
