Hobbies! | Bear With Me S2 E4

Send us a text
Hey friends! This episode is all about hobbies. The ones I’ve picked up, the ones I’ve dropped, and the ones that somehow stuck around. I share what I’m into right now, the funny side of trying (and failing) at new things, and how hobbies keep me inspired and balanced.
We’ll talk about why it’s okay to have a “graveyard” of past hobbies, how self-compassion plays a role in creativity, and the joy of simply doing things for fun.

In this mini episode of The Bear With Me podcast, I share what's been on my mind this week. My current obsessions, sources of inspiration, and a peek into my creative journey. I talk about my newfound love for tangerine juice (seriously, you have to try it!), my obsession with Gracie Abrams' song "Risk," and why the color orange is giving me all the good vibes lately.
I also reflect on Taylor Swift's recent podcast appearance and how it inspired me to keep going with my own show. Plus, I open...

Embracing Solitude: The Surprising Benefits of Doing Things Alone
Hey, it’s me, Anna. My puppy, Carolina also pops in to remind you that she runs this household. 🐶
Today we’re talking about something I used to be terrified of: doing stuff alone. Like, eating by myself at a restaurant? Nope. Sitting in silence with my thoughts? Absolutely not. But plot twist: spending time alone turned out to be one of the best things I’ve ever learned how to do.

Bear With Me – Season 2, Episode 2: How to Start a Podcast (When You Have No Idea What You’re Doing)
Season 2 is here, and I’ve upgraded the show with a new co-host: my puppy, Carolina. She doesn’t talk much, but she’s great at interrupting recordings with loud yawns and chewing noises, so… a real asset to the team.
In this episode, I walk you through how I started this podcast with zero experience, minimal planning, and a dangerous level of confidence. We’ll cover my questionable d...

Moving and Life Updates 🚚📦 | S1 E7

Send us a text
In today’s episode, I’m catching you up on life lately — the move, the chaos, the weird middle space of figuring things out. We’re talking about packing, overthinking, what it’s like to live in transition, and a few ways I’m (very imperfectly) practicing patience during change. If you’re in a season where everything feels a little unsettled, you’re definitely not alone.

Rest for the ~Restless~ 🚀| S1 E6

Send us a text
I tried to rest. On purpose. It was harder than I thought.
In this episode, I’m talking about what it looks like to practice Sabbath in a world that glorifies hustle. From setting boundaries to learning how to slow down with God, this is an honest look at rest as something sacred—even if it’s messy.
Whether you’re craving peace, structure, or just a nap, this episode is your permission slip to pause.
Thanks for bearing with me. 🐻🕊️

This one’s for the creators, the overthinkers, and the brave souls who post things into the void hoping someone is out there.
In this episode, I’m reflecting on what it feels like to start something new (like a podcast) when your audience is still small, your brain is spiraling, and the algorithm is giving you nothing. I also share a little life update, what’s been on my mind lately, and why I’m still showing up — even if I’m talking to myself in a microphone with no witnesses. It’s part pep talk, part confessio...

Starting a Podcast with No Experience 🤯 | Bear With Me S1E1

I finally did it—I started a podcast! 🎉 But here’s the thing… I have no clue what I’m doing (and that’s exactly why I’m recording this). In this episode, I talk about:
✔️ Why I decided to start this podcast (and why I almost didn’t).✔️ The mental hurdles that stop people from starting creative projects.✔️ My super professional setup (spoiler: it’s not).✔️ What this podcast will actually be about—creativity, storytelling, and funny internet chaos.✔️ Why your "dumb idea" is better than someone else’s "great idea" that nev...
