New Year, Same You? Tackling Blue Monday, MLK’s Legacy, and Life’s Potholes
Podcast Show Notes:
Welcome to Season 2 of the Not Vanilla Podcast with your favorite mother-daughter duo, Roxana and Dominique! 🎙️ We’re kicking off the new year with a blend of reflection, motivation, and real talk.
In this episode, we’re diving into a few things that might be on your mind:
✨ Happy New Year: Is it really “new year, new me”? Or can we embrace who we are while making space for growth? We discuss our thoughts on this timeless question.
🌨️ Blue Monday: The third Monday of January is often called the “saddest day of the year.” We unpack why it feels that way and share tips to beat the blues—stay present, journal, and keep the holiday spirit alive all year long.
✊🏾 Honoring MLK’s Legacy: We reflect on Martin Luther King Jr.’s message of unity, equality, and hope, and how his words continue to guide us in challenging times.
🛞 Getting Over Life’s Potholes: Life isn’t always smooth sailing. From financial stress to the winter blues, we discuss how to tackle life’s setbacks with resilience, self-care, and a healthy dose of humor.
We’re also excited to announce that Season 2 will be a biweekly podcast, and we’re bringing you a new format! Get ready to meet our friends, hear new perspectives, and get to know us even more. We’re ready to share our journey with you and bring you along for the ride.
