One Outfit One Hundred Days with Julia Mooney
How to Stop Caring About What Other People Think
For a very long time, I cared a LOT about what other people thought about me. I cared what they thought about how I did in school, how I looked, how I spoke, how I acted in a group, what my beliefs were… the list goes on. Don’t get me wrong, it still comes up […]
On Sharing Your Voice with Miranda Krogstad

Forgiving the Unforgivable (and the A’s to your Q’s)
I’ve wanted to talk about forgiveness on the podcast for a while. I’ve touched on it at different points, but we’ve never done a deep dive, and let’s be honest, forgiveness requires more than lip service. Forgive (verb) Stop feeling angry or resentful toward someone for an offence, flaw or mistake. That’s the core definition. […]
