Probably my most vulnerable, transparent + chaotic episode yet - hahhahahh! But honestly, I think it is VERY fitting for an episode where I wanted to talk about this feeling of "needing to have it all together" or be super "happy and positive" whenever we show up online, creating content or actively pursue sharing our authentic + real selves and passions with others. Here is me showing up when I was having an anxious, overwhelming kinda day but wanting to be transparent and real!! Thank you so much for your support of the pod + this community! I hope you like this one even though it is a bit of a mess. LOVE YOU ALL <3 XO, ERYN

Today's episode is all about breaking up with the "timelines" we create for our own life! We talk all things embracing our own journey, living in the present + shifting to be more comfortable with the unknowns!! I feel like this episode is SO relevant to my life right now as I'm in a season of life and at an age where everyone around me seems to be living out major life event/highlight reels right now! Let's reflect on how we are ENOUGH and no matter how close our life is to a "timeline" - we are good enough + it's still amazing!! <3 XO, ERYN

thanks for previewing the break up with better podcast! I can't wait to share the podcast with you very soon! Episode 1 will debut on Tuesday July 6th @ 5 am! it will be a very vulnerable, unscripted conversation where I share with you what the podcast will be about and a little bit about my story and why I want to start a podcast!
CC: Hi, I'm Eryn + I am so glad you're here! Are you ready to Break Up with Better? We've all been there. Convinced we want or need to be a "better" version of ourselves... better job, better hair, better skin... a "better" life. Since the global pandemic happened, I’ve been unpacking and unlearning a lot of the harm that “hustle culture” and “toxic-positivity” have caused me. I want to help you break up with hustle culture, step outside of toxic-positivity and reconnect with the things you actually want to be doing. Follow along with me as we learn how to be kind and compassionate towards ourselves and approach our daily life with non-judgement and curiosity. I'll share my own experiences, conversations and interviews, tips and actionable steps you can implement right now. Join me every week as we rip off the bandaid and break up with our need to be better. We are already more than good enough right now.
