Thursday Murmurings
Whoopi Goldberg, true crime and betting on yourself.
Happy Thursday, ya beauties!
Kicking it off this week with Whoopi Goldberg, who announced recently that she’s launching a TV channel dedicated to women’s sports. YES! It’s about damn time someone did this. I love that women are finally leading the charge in women’s sports and taking the steps to amplify and elevate it to the level it deserves.
More of this please!
Things that caught my eye this week
I was lamenting to a friend the other day how sick I am of true crime podcasts (because look, none of them are ever gonna top season one of Serial and they need to accept it!), and I do actively try to avoid them. With that said, I randomly stumbled across an old episode of the Crime Show and when I say my jaw was on the floor for most of it, my goodness. Twists, turns and curveballs, lemme tell ya! A story of corruption unlike any other I’ve heard. Definitely worth your time. Check it out here.
Food for thought
All that energy you put into your counter-argument, all the reasons it’s not gonna work, it can’t happen, you’re not ready - what if today, you just decided to rest that voice? Put all your energy into the part of you that says ‘fuck it, I’m gonna try anyway.’ Flood that part of you with belief that it’ll go better than you could ever imagine. Because that party pooper side of you is really killing the vibe. You’re allowed to be great. Let yourself.
You should upgrade to the paid version of The Murmuration because…
On Monday I’ll be talking about why I’m savouring slower movement in my 40s and just how important it is to let yourself feel into the natural shifts, ebbs and flows that your body feels at this age. I’ll delve into how this has taken some deprogramming and has been a bit confronting, being part of a generation raised in the harder, faster, more, go-to-extremes type of fitness, but this finally feels like I’m on the right path.
Upgrade your membership for just $5 per month to read all the Monday goodies.
Your weekly Biggie Smalls (P)update
This week, Biggie would like to remind you to check in on that friend you haven’t heard from in a while. Yup, schedules get busy, we don’t wanna bother people, yada yada yada. But sometimes, the bothering is welcome. A quick check in can really brighten someone’s day. Just let someone know you’re thinking of them today.
Over on Studio Bangs…
If you haven’t checked out my wellness platform, Studio Bangs, yet, HOLY MOLY! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!
I have over 100 workouts on there now (Spin! Pilates! Weights! Mobility! Stretching!) and have migrated my personal development coaching onto that platform too, so if you’re looking for a coach, that’s where you can find me.
I have a big Black Friday sale happening next week, so you’re gonna wanna keep an eye out for that so you can grab the goods!
Head on over there and have a browse.
Until next week; smile at strangers, spread good vibes, be nice to people.
Ok no shade but Seriel was a problematic podcast and certainly not the best by any means- True Crime Bullshit, Ghost Story, Southern Fried Crime and if you dont want TC - Obitchuary, Gossips Bridle, Mordid's Listener Tales and the BEST and kinda TC related True Crime Obsessed- also Golden Girls Deep Dive Podcast is SOOOO FUNNY and informative.
