Unsolicited Advice With Ashley And Taryne

Today's episode is all about the need to talk things through with friends and family, and how that can lead to crucial help and healing. Whether it's compulsive behavior that requires professional guidance, or a distinctly The Office-esque love triangle that should be nipped in the bud before things get messy, we all need to approach that one person we trust to spill our guts and ask for help. It's only then that a truly healthy response can be initiated. Stay informed, stay safe, and stay healthy out there, folks!

As we get closer to New Year's Eve and we reflect on the year that was (or largely wasn't, in the case of 2020), we focus today on borders and boundaries. Whether they be self-imposed, or inflicted upon us by sheer circumstance, it's paramount that we identify those things which may be hold us back in 2021 and devise a game plan to blow them up (metaphorically-speaking), so we can live our best lives and strive to be our best selves. From all of us here in the UA fam, we wish you and yours a healthy, happy, and prosperous new year! Stay informed, stay safe, and stay healthy out there, folks!

In this, the last episode of UA before Christmas, we bring you stories focusing on two of the most challenging, beguiling, and stress-inducing (yet ultimately rewarding) things we all have in our lives: family and friends.

Today's episode is all about opposites. In one scenario, you desperately want to relax and be around family and friends during the holidays, yet an invisible foe is preventing it from happening. In a second scenario, you are forced to be around a specific person, but would do absolutely anything to avoid that human being at all costs. This, our friends, is 2020 in a nutshell. No matter what you want or need, a compromise is oftentimes necessary. As we prepare for the holidays, take solace in the fact that no matter who you are, this year is likely going to be different, difficult, and slightly dysfunctional.

Safety and balance are two concepts that may seem unrelated, but are in fact inextricably linked. Safety can eventually lead to good health, which can then guide you to balance. Balance, in turn, can lead to a healthy lifestyle and therefore a feeling of safety. Therefore, no matter what problem you may be facing, you should always maintain a baseline level of safety and always strive for a feeling of balance. If both are found, you're likely already well on your way. Please don't forget to send in your scary stories for our October Series!
