A look into my journal. I hope you 20-somethings can relate to this one <3
Here’s to 24, and here’s to 2024.
With love, Vivi

Yes, we can pivot and change at any point in our life, but I really do view this decade of our 20s as the building stage. It’s the building of our personal growth, our mindset, our health, but also our relationships and careers.
Today, I have the perfect guest to join me for Episode 5 of “20 something in my 20s” - say hello to Miss. Reyna Pizarro! She is in the last year of her 20s and has so much wisdom to share. Tune in for ~20 lessons we’ve come to learn in our 20s.

I don’t have my people, but that’s okay.
Even though I’m still in the phase of doubting, I just know they’re out there for me, and I know that they’re out there for you. For all my introverts - for all those who question whether they're worthy of true friendship, this one's for you.
With love, Vivi

Many still believe that the goal of medication for mental illness is to 'zombify' the person taking it or to change who they are. Some even imply that those who take medication are just not trying hard enough to overcome their condition, that taking medication signifies weakness or an inability to work through tough times.
In today’s episode, I’m accompanied by my good friend, Nicole. Nicole shares her story on taking medication for her anxiety, and despite any opinions, she takes matters into her own hands. Now, she is the most expressed version of herself. She did not let her mental struggle get in the way of her living her best life!
Whether the solution involves medication or not, do not let your mental disability/disabilities, get in the way of you living your amazing life. You are inherently worthy.
All opinions are our own!!
With love, Vivi

Our early 20s: We’re just figuring out who we are. We want to have fun, but we also want to be responsible. We want to set ourselves up for the rest of our lives! We want to leave the legacy we want leave and make the impact we want to make. It’s a confusing AND stressful time.
I’m continuously learning more about myself and life, and in this series, I will get into about 20 things I’ve come to learn in my 20s.
Let’s get into it :)
With love, Vivi

One of the hardest decisions we have to make is what we hold onto, and what we let go of. I think a lot of us can agree - relationships in our 20s can be tough. This can be romantic relationships, friendships, and even relations with family members.
Today, I am joined by my lovely friend, Natalie Ludwig. Natalie is known for her food and fitness content, however, for those that know her personally, she’s someone that exudes light and love in all relationships she builds. Today won’t be informational as much as it is casual and conversational. If that’s the kinda vibe you’re feelin, would so appreciate if you stick around!!

Let’s create a life we can’t wait to wake up to. Let’s tap into our excellence and that highest version of ourselves. Let’s build confidence and stay focused.
No matter how you’re doing at the moment, I want to remind you that you deserve to have the best year of your life. You are brave enough to start. You do have the courage to go after it. Even if you just can’t seem to hold it together right now…that’s okay. I see you trying. I’m so proud of you, and you don’t even know how happy I am that you exist. Please give yourself some extra love & kindness this year <3 Whenever you’re ready - you’re healthy mentally and physically, your life is waiting for you.
With love, Vivi

I know the holidays are known to be a joyous time, but it’s also one of the hardest and most emotional times for me. If you feel like you’re ending this year just going through the motions, fighting against so much resistance…you’re not alone. This one’s for you <3

Here is me vocalizing the mess that is my thoughts LOL - Welcome to Episode 3 of “20-something in my 20s!” This is a series on the pod where I talk through all the things I’ve come to learn in my early 20s.
To those that have read this far: I understand that this decade can demand a lot of you, but be proud. I’m proud of what you’ve done and who you’ve been through navigating life’s complexities. I hope you leave this episode knowing that you are strong, supported, and inherently worthy of all that you desire.
With love, Vivi

I think this is the most honest episode I’ve put out. It’s scary, but also, freeing.
It can be hard to be vulnerable, and it’s hard to embrace the discomfort in healing. I know that not everyone will understand - but it’s not about creating a message that resonates with everyone, it’s about sharing parts of my story in hopes someone feels less alone in theirs. There's so much more I could have said and ways I could have condensed, improved, and perfected this episode, but I like how scattered and raw and authentic it is.
I’m always trying. I’m trying my best, and sometimes, my best doesn’t feel like enough. I recognize my opinions are ever-changing, but as of today, in November 2023, this is what I have to say. Here’s my real, imperfect self - she’s not for everyone but she is for me :)
Wherever you’re at today…you are okay. You can just exist. You are enough. I am proud of you for trying no matter how much resistance you feel. I want to say goodbye to this chapter of my life, and maybe you want to say goodbye to some things too. We got this <3
With love, Vivi

Comparison can ruin moments of joy because someone else arguably has more or has better. We may find ourselves ruminating on our faults and flaws, feeling unworthy and not enough. Comparison can surely undermine our self-esteem, but when healthy, it can be a source of motivation and inspiration. We’re determined to improve ourselves. It gives us direction and purpose.
When you stop the toxic comparing, measuring, and overthinking, and you start accepting, reflecting, and forgiving…you start true healing.
With love, Vivi

Welcome to Episode 1 of “20-something in my 20s” - a new mini-series I’m introducing to the podcast! In these fun (and insightful) rapid-fire episodes, I will talk through around 20 things I’ve come to learn in this decade of my 20s.

My goal is for us to make the most of these formative years. We will be faced with challenges. We will be confronted with tough decisions. It will indeed, be stressful :’))
BUT, I hope that with these episodes, you can escape your mind for just one moment, be reminded of what you innately know, and see everything you deserve. You are inherently worthy - worthy of all the love, joy, and peace in the world.
If you’re reading the show notes today, I just love ya!!

Maybe you’re going through a season of change right now, or maybe you aren’t ready to make the changes you know you want to make.
Whatever’s happened, whatever path you think you’re on…it is okay to restart. It is okay to make changes. It is okay to let go of people, places, and things that don’t serve you. It can be so hard to detach from what’s familiar, but you know that it’s okay to let go. I’m just here to remind you.
With love, Vivi

I’ve been ashamed of my past, anxious about my future, and absent in the present. I’ve had unhealthy, but also healthy views of these three states of being, and I’m sure you have too.
In my experience, living in the moment is the best place to be. I’m aware, I’m mindful, and I’m fully present - present with the people I love, and present to experience the world as it is.
It’s cliché, but the present is truly all there is. Don’t feed the past and future fictions led by your mind. You deserve happiness and peace, now. Let’s get into it.
With love, Vivi

My insecurity led me to believe that what I want out of life is only for the most intelligent, the most fortunate, and the most talented.
The truth is that there is so much more to a person that makes them well-established and world-class at something. You’ve heard the phrase before: Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.
Working hard is a given. Why do we spend so much time focusing on talent, and so little time developing character? We all want to be the talented ones, yet talent is limited. Increasing your character is virtually unlimited.
If this is a topic that interests you, I hope you stick around. And if you’re reading this, I just love you!
