Note to Self Diaries
Hey Love, Remember when we couldn‘t wait to be grownups because we thought being grown meant staying up late, eating whatever we want, and doing whatever we want? Now that we‘re heerree, we‘re realizing that there‘s more to being an adult than going to bed at 2am and having cake for breakfast. It‘s also: unpacking past trauma, having tough conversations, staying committed to doing THE WORK, all while curating a life we‘re proud of and happy to call ours. I don‘t have all the answers, but as I learn, my goal is to share with you my experienced, and borrowed lessons on navigating the highs and lows of adulthood with the hope that each episode will inspire you to be, do, and have better! Grab your wine, coffee, or tea, have a seat... and let‘s talk.

S1S43: ”Why Aren‘t They Supporting Me?”
Wednesday Jul 21, 2021
Wednesday Jul 21, 2021
Support isn't guaranteed just because they're you're friend or family- I know it sucks when Mom and Dad aren't the first purchasers of your new product, or your best friend isn't liking, commenting, or sharing every new podcast or YouTube episode you upload. Sometimes, there are other reasons why you're not receiving the support you're expecting.
In today's session of Note to Self Diaries, I share 5 reasons why people may not be supporting you and the one thing you're doing that may be a turn off.
I would love to hear your feedback on today's episode, or about a lesson that really stood out to you recently.

S1S42: Don‘t Engage
Wednesday Jul 14, 2021
Wednesday Jul 14, 2021
This week's session comes as a reminder to protect your peace .
The text, the call, the snarky comment- you don't have to give the sender of the bad vibes the satisfaction of knowing that they touched a nerve by reacting negatively AND prolonging that negative feeling by allowing what they said or did to fester within us hours, days, or weeks.
You're the gatekeeper. You control who takes up space in your world. I hope this session reminds you to take control.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on today's session; you can email me your comments or voice notes at alicia@notetoselfdiaries.com, or you can DM me on IG @notetoselfdiaries. With your permission, your comments/voice notes will be featured in the next session of Note to Self Diaries.

Wednesday Jul 07, 2021
Wednesday Jul 07, 2021
Ever desired something, and in the same breath, questioned yourself and asked, "Who do you think you are wanting that?!" Why do we fight ourselves on OUR OWN DESIRES?

S1S38: How Meditation is Helping My Career
Wednesday Jun 16, 2021
Wednesday Jun 16, 2021
Who would have thought that the answers I've been looking for, in connection to my career path, would have been wrapped up in meditation? Certainly not me.
In today's session of NTSD I share with you a common misconception about meditation amongst believers, the benefits of meditation, and what I'm learning so far after 7 days of consistency.
I would love to hear from you! If you'd like to share a lesson that stood out to you this week, or what you connected with from this session, email me at alicia@notetoselfdiaries.

S1S37: Ask for the Help You Need
Wednesday Jun 09, 2021
Wednesday Jun 09, 2021
I thought I knew how to ask for help...until I had to. As much as we think we can, there are some things we can't do on our own and reaching out to a mentor or confidant and seeking their advice/opinion on something we're struggling with isn't an act of weakness, but rather, an act of strength.
In today's session of NTSD I share with you the lessons I learned from putting my pride aside and asking for the help I need.
