Meraki Rebirth: Living With Intention Again

After soul restoring pause, The Meraki Podcast is back.

This season begins with a return to the heart of it all: choosing everyday to live with intention, even when it’s messy, uncertain, or quiet.


In this episode, I reflect on the power of rest, the lesson in the stillness, and what it means to begin again.

The Grass Is Always Greener Where You Water It


On today’s episode #50, I will be talking about the shiny object syndrome & how often people look for the next big thing. People become to blinded on what they don’t have and become so focused on what everyone else does have. Instead of focusing on & being stuck in a vicious cycle, appreciate what you already have. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side. Good things take time and love.

Let People Miss Out On You

On this episode of the Meraki podcast I introduce what it means to let people miss out on you. People are wants, people aren’t needs. We have to realize that we don’t own people, we experience people. If some people reject you, you help them close the door, not begging, they miss a blessing in disguise. Always going forward blessed with gratitude and love.

Staying Sane, Unbothered, & Productive

Hello everyone and welcome to the month of march where I’m introducing a new theme this month which is “The art of letting go”. I truly believe that moments & situations are not happening to us but happening through us and when we become the change we seek to experience, we will experience that change everywhere we go. The art of letting go teaches us that it had to happen so we could grow.

Just remember to surround yourself with people who:

empower you

Believe in you

Support you

Uplift you

Appreciate you

I May Be Cringe But That Makes Me Free

Today we will be talking about the amazing saying “To be cringe is to be free”. I realized that I wanted to talk about this not only because it is more of a light hearted topic but because as we all know Tik Tok was banned not that long ago for what about 12 hours and I’m sure most if not all people were devastated but then I realized that it truly is a unique app. The algorithm is different, the way that news is shared is different but also the creativity and openness that people have on there compared to other apps is so different & people truly can just be themselves. So just know that you’re not cringey, you just care too much about what people think!

It’s Okay To Change Your Mind

I've noticed something about myself or others - in periods of self-reflection, the hardest things to address are contradictions and inconsistencies. It makes sense why this is so uncomfortable to address, it's because i feel like the consistency between our beliefs and our actions gives us a sense of emotional stability. When you find a contradiction or an inconsistency, it rattles that piece of our foundation. Today, I'm going to discuss why I believe it's okay to change our minds
