I'm so excited to have Lara Gieske on the podcast this week talking about celebration and lifting the pleasure cap.
Lazz is a healer, podcast host, author and self leader. Lazz inspires Walnuts to feel confident & love themselves by being a Walnut (noun) A person who decides to be brave. She is the creator of Walnut Wednesday which started as a podcast but has since evolved into a movement and safe haven for those who feel like a 'peanut' to begin their evolution into the walnut.
In this episode we explore all things celebration!
“You say to someone… “Yay! Celebrating you!” Like, what does it actually mean to celebrate someone? And when I Googled celebrating, it was to have an event in terms of something special, and I was like, what makes something special? And I came to realize that my definition of celebrating is my action of celebrating is to hold a moment.”
“I have done everything with Walnut Wednesday the complete wrong way around. I started the podcast, I did not tell a single soul really. I started my group with nobody in it. I started a Walnut Wednesday business page on Facebook and never invited anyone to it. I am a big believer in baby steps. And while those baby steps were actions in complete and total like pooping my pants fear. I still was just doing them. Because deep down if I took away all the embarrassing anticipation anxiety was following a butt smack.”
“It's okay to want more. I'm grateful for what I have, and I am excited for more. And I think I really embodied that over my birthday, where I actually celebrated pretty much the whole month of December because I wanted to, because I could, and that's not that I was ungrateful for the moments that I was having now, but I was simultaneously excited about the moments that I was going to have for the rest of the month, because I deserved them.”
