It's a new year! After the rollercoaster that was 2020 we need all the new, feel-good vibes. Many of us are looking for ways to find balance in our lives, relationships, careers and within ourselves. Maybe you've been overthinking, overreacting, or overperforming, and the concepts of peace and calm seem just out of reach or unfamiliar altogether.

If you're anything like me, you always welcome some sage advice, and our first guest of 2021 did just that! Dr. Gimel Rogers, Psy.D., ABPP is a licensed therapist and is Board Certified in Clinical Psychology from the American Board of Professional Psychology. We got the opportunity to discuss all things mind, body and spirit in the name of finding your center, getting grounded and living your best life (on your terms) in the new year..

On this episode, we talk about:

The 4 signs someone lacks centeredness and share helpful tips to regain your center and discover balance again
The importance of putting your mental state first and what taking care of your mind, body and spirit ACTUALLY looks like
Strengthening your mind to strengthen your discipline so you can become more intrinsically motivated to do the things you love
Identifying the big vs. small bags in your life and knowing what's worth your energy (Spoiler alert: Ms. Badu already told us, all you must hold onto is you)
Responding vs. reacting and staying centered when people or circumstances are seemingly getting in the way of your greatness
Why saying affirmations out loud can have a greater impact than simply reading them to yourself
