80. What Are Healthy Ways to Support Yourself Through Seasonal Depression?
How do you know if you’re experiencing seasonal depression? This is my first time sharing that I have been feeling this emotional shift every fall for seven years now. In this episode, I dive into how your history can influence your emotional responses to seasonal changes, factors that affect your mood, and coping strategies. I also share how you can turn unhealthy coping mechanisms into healthier ways and why you should build a support system. Remember, these feelings won’t last forever and you are NOT alone.

78. How Do You Know You’re Fully Alive?
How do you know that you’re alive today? A recent conversation with my grandpa, who is at the end of his life, sparked something in me that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about. It made me realize how many of us go through life on autopilot and afraid to fully live. In this episode, I share how this question has shaped my new daily mantra, the shifts I’ve been navigating, the choices I’m weighing (like another baby, a career pivot, or a whole year of travel). I also have some big announcements, including a brand new podcast format, an upcoming retreat for our community, and the changes coming to Healing Her. Tune in to learn how to intentionally step into a life that feels fully alive.

80. What Are Healthy Ways to Support Yourself Through Seasonal Depression?
Published 4 Mar 2025 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Okay, one way to support yourself is adjusting your routine. Is there a way that you can adjust your routine so you get the maximum daylight possible where you are able to get outside right away in the morning? Studies show that if you can get right away outside in your first half an hour waking up in the morning, it helps you increase your happiness for the rest of the day. Boost your serotonin gives you, you know, that sunshine that you need and it significantly impacts how you feel throughout the rest of the day. So something I tried to do is get outside within the first 30 minutes of waking up and this is something that actually is really good for your kiddos also. […]
