Episode 34: Strategies for Self-Love

We’ve all heard the phrase or been offered the advice to “love yourself more,” but that can be easier said than done. By practicing self-love, you are appreciating your own well-being, worth, and happiness. Like building any muscle, loving yourself takes time and consistency, and it’s something you may have to revisit daily to strengthen. I know that there are days where I have to work a little harder or dig a little deeper to fully love myself. I hope this episode reminds you that self-love isn’t selfish and that prioritizing your self-worth is necessary and healthy.

Gotta love a DIY project! I had some matchbooks sa Gotta love a DIY project! I had some matchbooks saved, and then we were also gifted some vintage ones! For a first-time project, I think they turned out pretty well! 👏🏻 

Collect your matchbooks and get all the craft materials here: https://www.amazon.com/shop/thebetslife/list/2F6IQ1Q2X7X35?ref_=aipsflist 🛒 

- Mod Podge your matchbooks and matchsticks. You can use a small paint brush or a sponge brush. I found that I had some discoloration on the white/lighter boxes, so maybe do a couple of coats on those to be safe? Or maybe go for darker colors? I did one coat of Mod Podge on everything. I let everything dry out for a day (although, I don’t think you would have to wait this long).

-  Follow the instructions on the box of the epoxy resin. Wear gloves and mix equal parts, stirring together for a few minutes. I mixed in plastic red cups that I later disposed of. Fill the coaster mold cups halfway with the mixture. 

- I waited 1 hour until the mixture was a bit tacky and then I added the matchbooks. The matchsticks/books may move around a bit, and you can always use tweezers to reposition.

- I waited 5 hours and then filled the rest of the molds up to the top with more epoxy resin. Leave molds for 24 hours and then remove. The coasters should pop out easily! 

What do you think of these? Let me know how your coasters turn out too! Share this video with your DIY/crafty friends. 🥰

Episode 59: Pet Peeves and Secret Talents: Q&A Season Four Finale 🎧 

Season four of The Bets Life Podcast is coming to a close, and what better way to wrap things up than with my first listener Q&A? 🗳️

In this special finale episode, I’m answering your questions—everything from how I try to find balance daily to celebrity doppelgangers, skydiving stories, travel mistakes, and where I order my favorite queso. If you’re ready for some surprising stories and interesting facts about me, this episode will be for you! 😁

I’m also reflecting on what it means to move through life in seasons, what a day in my life looks like, and why I structure my creative work the way I do. From random rapid-fire favorites to deeper reflections on mental health and ambition, this episode is a little bit of everything—fun, honest, and full of gratitude. 🥰

Thank you all for tuning in this season and for being part of this community. Cheers to season four, and I look forward to being back with you all for season five! 💓
