Radical acceptance of who you are as a person and how it can shift your life into greater happiness.

In this episode I go solo and talk about radical acceptance. I've found that by accepting who I am, where I am at mentally, and how my body is feeling physically can help shift and move thru so much. The more you lean into acceptance of the place you're at, the faster it can be turned into a catalyst for more goodness, and an up level in life. This has been such a game changer at allowing myself to have more self compassion, and also cultivate a more beautiful space in my mind.intro music by the talented Lee Rixson find him on insta @leerixson Find Marla @_marmo

Matt joins me to talk about how we make our relationship work!

In this episode, my partner, Matt, joins me in talking about how we make our relationship work by communicating, understanding each others needs and desires, and by just being silly. We feel so fortunate to have such an amazing relationship, and I feel some of it was just lucking out, but a lot of it is work, and deep discussion. We focus on the positives within each other and know how to best serve one another in emotional times. Tune in for some silly banter, bucket hat talk, and lots about sea creatures.intro music by the talented Lee Rixson find him on insta @leerixson Find Marla @_marmo
