In this EpisodeSometimes the things that we have to glow through are things that we cannot control. When COVID struck and Adriana and Mariah - like everyone else in the world - were trapped inside, it obviously came with a lot of emotions that were difficult to process. The candid phone conversation in this episode comes on the heels of life shutting down for the entire world, amidst still struggling through our own personal and professional struggles.
Some of the difficulty in quarantine and living through the pandemic comes with the confusion and juxtaposition of feeling lucky and grateful to be alive and healthy, but also feeling frustrated with the uncertainty of the world around us. What we’ve tried to realize throughout the pandemic is that everyone is entitled to their own feelings about their personal, or even worldwide situations. The validation of our feelings and emotions is what ultimately helps us get through them and process them.
It’s also important in this time of uncertainty to recognize that we cannot control everything. There are some things in life that will be aggravating, that will feel unfair, and that will take away the things that we love to do. But, sometimes, these are things that we cannot control. So, we have to learn to accept it, and trust that at some point, everything will make sense to us. We will be able to look back on this time and see why we had to go through it.
And while we can’t control everything, and we can’t always plan for the future, there are some things we can control. We can control how we react to situations, we can control our emotions, and we can control our mindsets. And hopefully, by starting with what we can control, we’ll be able to glow through the things that we can’t.
