18 Jul 2023my summer reflections ~ the fear doing things alone, career choices and should I move out of my parents home? 00:20:00

Hey twentysomething! Welcome to episode 18 of the Twenties Detox (S1.E18) ~ where we talk about all the struggles of early adulthood and develop better mindsets for growth and healing. But wait! SUBMIT YOUR QUESTION FOR FINAL EPISODE This week, I've made a decision to present an episode that's more authentic and open, diving into the thoughts that have been occupying my mind recently, along with a few current stressors I'm navigating. The months of summer have always been a time of introspection for me, and despite sharing advice to my fellow twentysomethings – I'm also still figuring things out myself! We all have our own struggles in life, and I believe it's important to be transparent about them to really overcome them. (Of course, you don't have to create a podcast episode about it, though, haha!) I hope you enjoy the episode, and at the very least, feel less alone. xoxo.

Welcome back, twenty somethings! This week on The Twenties Detox, I got cozy for a nighttime recording session to bring you an episode that's all about diving deep into the world of self-love. We're talking the four essential pillars that will transform how you view yourself even when you're feeling insecure.

Then, we move into Self-Care—because taking care of yourself starts with truly knowing yourself. Next, we tackle Self-Worth. We're relearning what it means to truly value ourselves, not just based on external achievements or validation. Finally, we wrap it up with Self-Compassion. Learn to support your self-esteem by seeing life objectively and separating your self-worth from fleeting moments of self-esteem.

So grab your favourite drink, get comfy, and join me for an episode that’s packed with insights, revelations, and a whole lot of real talk. Don’t miss out – hit play and let’s detox those twenties together!

Hold onto your hats, Twenty-Somethings, because The Twenties Detox is back with a vengeance! After a brief hiatus (we missed you too, trust us), your host Bianca is hitting the mic once again to dish out all the tea on navigating the tumultuous journey of your twenties.

In this highly anticipated Season 2 premiere, Bianca gets real about where she's been, what to expect from this season, and dives deep into the tantalizing topic of romanticizing your life.

We've all heard the phrase "romanticize your life," but let's be honest, in today's world of curated Instagram feeds and FOMO-inducing TikTok trends, it's easy to lose sight of what it really means. Bianca shares her epiphany moment at a 6LACK concert, where she realized that some people were more fixated on capturing the perfect shot for the 'gram than actually soaking in the magic of the music.

But fear not, because Bianca is here to set the record straight. She'll guide you through the maze of modern distractions and show you how to reclaim the lost art of cherishing life's simple pleasures. From savouring your morning coffee to getting lost in a good book, Bianca lays out the blueprint for rediscovering the joy in everyday moments.

Welcome back to The Twenties Detox. Let's make this season one for the books!!

26 Jun 2023how to "go with the flow" and let go of rigid routines00:30:02

Hey twentysomething!

Welcome to episode 16 of the Twenties Detox (S1.E16) ~ where we talk about all the struggles of early adulthood and develop better mindsets for growth and healing.

To begin, Bianca starts off by telling us all about her trip to Florida with her friends as well as her Italy trip. She was so excited to explore the great lakes and visit her Nonna's hometown, but guess what? Total bummer alert—her luggage didn't make it to Italy :/ Ever had that happen to you? You buy all these cute outfits, all ready to show them off, and then bam! Disaster strikes. But hold up – Bianca had a realization.

She was like, "Hey, in 20 years, who the heck cares what I wore in Italy? I'll remember the amazing conversations I had with the people on the tour, the overwhelming emotions I felt seeing Nonna's childhood home, and the sheer beauty of those lakes and mountains. That cute dress? Not gonna be a memory worth keeping." And just like that, she moved on.

In the past, going with the flow (which always involves change) felt impossible to do. As a person so used to rigid routines conditioned from school and work, "letting go" was one of the hardest things to do for Bianca. In this episode she will share the revelations she had along the way to develop this better mindset, as well as the 4 main benefits of how to improves our life in our 20s by going with the flow of life.

Sit back and relax, and I hope you enjoy.

30 May 2023retrospective reflections | the secrets to finding happiness with my 85-year old gran 00:35:22

Hey Twentysomething! 

Welcome to episode 15 of the Twenties Detox (S1.E15) ~ where we talk about all the struggles of early adulthood and develop better mindsets for growth and healing.

Today, we have another retrospective reflections episode! You may remember the episode I recorded a few months ago with my great aunt Reena, where we discussed overcoming life's challenges through perseverance and faith. Today, I am honored to have someone who possesses the same level of strength and determination, as well as the Norwegian grit that runs in our family. Mary Brown is Reena’s younger sister, and despite growing up in the same household, their personalities couldn't be more different! Mary has always been someone who has shown me what it truly means to live life to the fullest. She even has the sign “carpe diem” hanging outside which is  a latin saying to seize the day. Her unwavering positivity and infectious laughter have brought immense light to my family, and in a world that can often feel overwhelming, her example provides invaluable lessons on how to lead a long, healthy, and happy life. So, without further ado, I am thrilled to welcome my wonderful grandmother, well we call her Granny Mary, to the podcast.


Sit back and relax. Hope you enjoy!

xoxo

10 Apr 2023how to get out of a rut & feel like yourself again [VIDEO]00:23:39

Hey Twentysomething!

Welcome to episode 10 of the Twenties Detox (S1.E10) ~ where we talk about all the struggles of early adulthood and develop better mindsets for growth and healing.

In this episode we're talking about how to feel like yourself again and get out of a rut. Bianca begins by explaining the concept of emotional frequencies, which are the different levels of energy that our emotions carry. By understanding emotional frequencies, we can learn to identify the emotions that are holding us back and work on shifting our energy towards more positive emotions. She also talks about the role of neuro-associations, which are the connections our brain makes between emotions and situations. By changing our associations with certain situations, we can learn to feel more positive emotions in those situations.

So, if you're feeling stuck in a rut, tune in to this episode for some practical tips on how to hack your emotions and start feeling like yourself again.
