Dreams and Daybreak: Taking Things Slow

Everyone knows the concept of breakfast being the most important meal of the day, but sometimes mornings in general are the most important PART of your day. Setting your mornings up for success means setting the rest of your day up for success, as those crucial hours following the minute you wake up will truly set the tone. This is all a part of maintaining a healthy work-life balance, especially when days can become stressful and unpredictable. It’s important to make time to focus on yourself, applauding the small wins and promised moments you prioritize. 

Darkness of Night: Winding Down for the Day

In addition to a slow morning, a purposeful nighttime routine is also vital when it comes to maintaining a schedule. Whether it be keeping up with your skincare routine or watching a few episodes of your favorite binge-worthy series, your nighttime rituals are a key part in getting a good, rested sleep. When put together with a calming morning routine, the stresses within these time periods can feel like less of a burden, especially when you have moments to look forward to.

What’s in a name?

Sometimes names can be a great representation of who you are – or are they? In this episode, we speak about reinventing your image through name changes and nicknames, and how a simple label can define how you come across to others. We also discuss the difference of names across cultures, and depending on where you come from, this dictates how short or long your name could be.
