Mood: spiritual, cosmic, manifestation, self development Today, January 11 (1/11 or 11/1, depending on where you live and how you write dates!) is the “111 portal.” You may have seen some advice on TikTok about manifesting and calling in what you want on this energetically charged day, but our master astrologer, celestial teacher, spiritual hygiene expert, numerologist, and moon mama Shannon Aganza is here with some DIFFERENT advice. Yes, manifesting is coming… but we need to check on some other things first! This is our first episode diving into the world of numerology. To figure out your personal number (based on your birth date and year) and your personal YEAR number (which changes yearly on your birthday, and provides you a theme for your year!), we have some materials below. Consider this your episode guide, and have your numbers ready and in the back of your mind! CALCULATING YOUR PERSONAL NUMBER AND PERSONAL YEAR NUMBER Personal number numerology:  Add the individual digits of your birth date together (for example, Jan 1, 2000 would be 1+1+2+0+0+0 = 4) If you’re left with a double digit number, add those digits together — UNLESS (!!) it’s an 11, 22, 33, 44, etc. (for example, September 29, 1980 would be 9+2+9+1+9+8+0 = 38, 3+8 = 11 ; August 21, 1991 would be 8+2+1+1+9+9+1 = 31, 3+1 = 4) Personal YEAR number:  Now, use your birthday without the year, and add in the year of your most recent birthday. For instance, it’s January 2024 now, but if your birthday is in March, use 2023 to calculate which year you’re currently in (this will change on your birthday this year). March 1, 2023 would be 3+1+2+0+2+3 = 11 year. You’ll change in 2024, on your birthday, to 3+1+2+0+2+4 = 12, 1+2= 3 (3 year).  Shannon’s big lessons for today’s numerology (11!) and 2024 at large (8)... Find a mantra or word for your energy this year “What do I need to feel whole without the addition of something outside of myself?” Moving into balance within a world of polarity Do money and possessions own YOU? What’s your relationship with money and possessions and materials?  Turn your energy inward for better, more conscious manifestation energy Self accept, don’t overthink Step into receptive energy (soft girl life!)

Mood: validating, personal development, reflective, fun What do you want to be when you ‘grow up’? Here’s a fun concept: you don’t have to just be one thing your whole life.  Your style may change, your preferences may change, your appearance may change, your interests and passions and hobbies and careers… you get it. You have your own ERAS. Different life chapters. Seasons. You can live a dynamic life! As Oscar Wilde once said, “If you want to be a grocer, or a general, or a politician, or a judge, you will invariably become it; that is your punishment. If you never know what you want to be, if you live what some might call the dynamic life but what I will call the artistic life, if each day you are unsure of who you are and what you know you will never become anything, and that is your reward.”  Confidence and Mindset Coach Jenny Gaither, Creator of Brave Babe Glow Up, joins us for a chat about our personal evolution, our personal “Eras Tour.” What era are you in? Are you leveling up, glowing up, evolving?  Jenny tells us, “life is a progressive glow up.”  And if you’re ready for a new era, a new glow up, a personal evolution… whether you’re quitting your job, leaving a relationship, moving to a new country, or simply cutting your hair or changing your clothes… let us (Jenny) help! She walks us through the “anatomy of a glow up” and a Glow Up 101 (take notes!). Get ready for your best era yet… and a validating chat about not knowing what you want to be for the rest of your life (it’s a good thing, we promise).  💫Get your Brave Babe Glow Up Guide from Jenny here! 💫 Journal prompt: What is your glow up leading you to? If you could wave a magic wand right now and you had everything you wanted, what would it be like? Get really creative and specific… don’t hold back.

Mood: therapy, mental health focused, upbeat, validating WELCOME BACK! It’s been a (longer than anticipated) minute since we’ve last chatted, but This Is Fine! Podcast is back in action after Dominique moved to Paris (salut de la France, tout le monde!).  Perhaps over this past summer (and start to autumn) you felt a little bit of FOMO, or got jealous of someone’s vacation updates on TikTok and Instagram. Maybe you haven’t gotten promoted yet, or saw that everyone in your age group has begun to buy a house. Have you gone to one too many baby showers and thought, this is not where I thought I’d be at [age redacted] years old?! Don't worry, we called the therapist for you. Dr. Kevin Gilliland, PsyD, our trusted on-call (literally) clinical psychologist is here to talk about the BS of the ‘societal timeline’ (the milestones you’re ‘supposed’ to meet, and when)... plus the idea of FOMO, comparison, and searching for what we really want in life. Sound good? Prepare for some validation. You can find more of Dr. Gilliland on his podcast, Struggle Well, Live Well, Worry Less (on Spotify and Apple), and our own episodes 27, 24 and 2. Resource mentioned in episode: Word of the year PDF (Unravel Your Year by Susannah Conway) We’ll be back soon with updates from Paris! What do you want to hear next? How did you like today’s episode?

Join us for a special announcement... a new (French) chapter is about to begin!

Mood: educational, empowering, validating, insightful, mental health Has TikTok diagnosed you with ADHD? Have you actually been diagnosed with ADHD? If you're female, there's an extra hurdle for you. The gender gap in research and diagnoses leaves many women and girls undiagnosed and untreated... sometimes for their entire lives. This episode takes in four accounts of adult women who were diagnosed with ADHD at different stages in their lives, from their 20s to their 60s. We interview Terry Matlen, MSW, psychotherapist and acclaimed ADHD expert. Terry has a clinical and personal perspective: she and her adult daughter both have ADHD. Terry is also the author of The Queen of Distraction and Survival Tips for Women with ADHD: Beyond Piles, Palms & Stickers — check these out if you've been recently diagnosed or are pursuing a diagnosis! Accounts from Lori (diagnosed 65), Jenny (diagnosed 32), Caroline (diagnosed 28), and Avery (diagnosed 31) will provide personal context about what life was like before and after diagnosis.
