E129: YOU are where the heart is. So let's celebrate!02 Jul 202000:09:01

I don't have to tell you that 2020 has been far from perfect. But you've made it this far, through COVID and quarantine and phased re-openings. Maybe you lost your job, or even worse, a loved one. You became besties with an app named, Zoom.

Or maybe you haven't felt like celebrating at all. And that's understandable. Life wasn't meant to be lived like a real-life version of The Sims. You had plans. And those plans were tossed out the window. But that's why it's more important than ever before, to find your own light.

The runners gliding through your local park might be enough to motivate you to head out on the road yourself, or maybe you're just looking for a way to be more active or lose weight. But no matter why you want to start running, it's time to lace up and enjoy every step, well, maybe not every step, but you'll get there.

And even if running never crosses your mind, something does. Something that u have wanted to try or succeed at, that until this point has eluded you. Keep listening, because there are some gems in today's episode for you too. Practices and philosophies you can apply to whatever goal or item are on your to-do list.

E113: How to Practice Gratitude for the Holidays26 Nov 201900:16:08

There is never a wrong time to practice a little "thank you." They say the Holidays are the MOST wonderful time of the year, but between the little things like Christmas, Hannukah, and Kwanza shopping,  perfecting cooking recipes, and navigating holiday travel or the big things like missing loved ones, deployment overseas, or little money in the bank, this time of the year can be downright STRESSFUL. 

When you are operating from a place of stress, it ain't always easy to remember gratitude. But there are easy ways to take the pressure off and still find time to say, 'thanks.'

In this episode we discuss: 

  • Gratitude and discontentment can live in the same space - there's room for both!
  • How to remain grateful in the midst of the chaos, sadness, and frustration
  • Is it possible for you to be happy NOW and still strive for your long term goal?
  • CALL FOR LISTENER FEEDBACK: Have there been any experiences you lived through that now, one, five or ten years later, you can be grateful?

E111: 5 Hacks to Sleep Better Tonight13 Nov 201900:19:00

Sleep affects almost every type of tissue and system in the body – from the brain, heart, and lungs to metabolism, immune function, mood, and disease resistance.  Research shows that a chronic lack of sleep, or getting poor quality sleep, increases the risk of disorders including high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, depression, and obesity.

On today's show:

  • A quick quiz to determine if you're getting enough sleep
  • Why your brain (not just your body) desperately needs sleep to properly function
  • 5 tips to a longer and more restful sleep from a sleep expert
  • The podcast I use to beat insomnia

E110: Is Work - Life Balance a Myth?06 Nov 201900:22:24

We spend a lot of time on YOU WANNA DO WHAT?! talking about side hustles, bucket list items and achieving goals - from mindset to health and everything in between. I often tell people that YOU WANNA DO WHAT?! is about being more than your day job. but what if you love what you do AND keep the things you value - family, fitness, and fun - top of mind? What if you designed your days to fit all of it?

 

Danay Escanaverino, is the CEO of LunaSol Media and is known as a Multicultural Marketing Growth Hacker. I first met Danay through social media where each morning I would welcome her daily posts. She runs nearly every morning, is a mom to two boys, a wife... but to me, Danay's big YOU WANNA DO WHAT?! truth is... not apologizing.

We discuss: 

  • The "aha moment" that changed her life (hint: her son was only 2 years old when it happened)
  • Work-life balance
  • Why community is embedded in her work to help Hispanic and Latinx thrive
  • Opening yourself up to new experiences

E109: TEDx Talk - The Flipside of Loneliness30 Oct 201900:26:35

Is there a solution to cure loneliness? Loneliness comes in many forms job loss, deployment, divorce, death, illness, or moving to a new city. For me, grief was the catalyst. When I was 16, I suffered a traumatic loss that forever changed my life. I found myself alone, lonely. Chronic loneliness is an epidemic. Half of Americans say they feel alone and in Britain, it's 1 in 3 people. 

If you have the courage to confess that you're lonely, most people reply with well-intentioned but unhelpful pieces of advice like, "Reach out and connect, make friends, here's a great quote."  As if you hadn't seen the "Just Hang in There" cat poster before.

In my TEDx talk, "The Flipside of Loneliness", I share my formula for navigating loneliness, including the 3 ways to embrace the 'lone' in lonely.

E107: Alicia Menendez on Why Likability is a Trap09 Oct 201900:48:33

Why fit in when you were born to stand out? Times have changed. With over 7 billion people in the world, a changing business landscape, and the competitive job market, fitting in is failing out. 

This week's guest is Alicia Menendez. Alicia is a journalist and multimedia storyteller. Named "Broadcast Journalism's New Gladiator" by Elle Magazine, "Ms. Millennial" by The Washington Post, and a "Content Queen" by Marie Claire, Alicia has quickly become a force in American media.

As you listen to episode 107 ask yourself these questions:

  1. Have you lived a conventional life?
  2. Have you ever felt like an outsider unwelcome in your environment?
  3. Are you fighting to fit in and playing small at home, work or in your relationship?

Celebrate a special 100th episode of YOU WANNA DO WHAT?! 

In 2013, I bought my first microphone, but it wasn't until 2017 that I began podcasting. What if I hadn't chickened out? What if I hadn't talked myself out of starting? That was nearly 6 years ago, and it got me thinking about what else I would do differently.

What advice would I give my younger self? What advice would you give yours?

With the help of friends, listeners and former YOU WANNA DO WHAT?! guests, I'm sharing 9 pieces of advice I would give my younger self with the hopes that I wasn't too much of a stubborn kid to take it.

Plus the motto I've lived by for over 20 years. You can USE it today and every day going forward.

E97: Confidence as a Young Woman in STEM22 May 201900:31:44

Were you ever asked the question, "what do you want to be when you grow up"? Today's episode will remind you of who your teenage-self used to be. If you feel lost, stuck, or unsure of what to include on your bucket list, which goals to chase and what dreams to pursue, listen to Karina's story.

Karina Popovich is determined to have her name listed alongside other STEM giants such as Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk. At 14 she founded the company, Connect with Tech, to give students of underrepresented backgrounds the opportunity to deep-dive into the world of technology through coding workshops, speaker sessions, and tech programs. In a few weeks, she'll graduate from the prestigious Brooklyn Technical High School in New York City before heading to Cornell University to pursue a degree in Business and Engineering. 

We discuss: 

  • Why she unapologetically calls herself an engineer 
  • How life as a first-generation immigrant influenced her work ethic
  • Confidence as a young woman in a male-dominated field of STEM 
  • Apprenticeship with Girls Who Code 
  • Ways her parents' support and encouragement has influenced her
