  <description><![CDATA[<p><b>Beautifully Unbalanced</b> is a podcast about becoming who you were meant to be. (formerly <em>Thym 4 Tea with Mikita</em>)</p><p>Life is messy, magical, unpredictable—and full of seasons where we’re asked to grow in ways we never expected. Host Mikita invites you into honest conversations that explore wellness, identity, relationships, resilience, and the art of evolving without apology.</p><p>Here, we talk about the chapters we rarely share: letting go, starting over, finding your voice, healing old stories, and learning to create space for the person you’re growing into. It’s real. It’s relatable. It’s you.</p><p>If you’re ready for transformation—with a little laughter, connection, and permission to show up imperfectly—pull up a seat.<br>&nbsp;<b>This is where your becoming begins.</b></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Personal Growth</p><p>Wellness</p><p>Self-Discovery</p><p>Motivation</p><p>Storytelling</p><p>Becoming</p><p><br></p><p><b><br><br></b><br></p><p>www.beautifully-unbalanced.com</p>]]></description>

I hear it, I see it, and I get the appeal… but let’s be honest—life doesn’t always give you the space to be soft.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome back to the Beautifully Unbalanced podcast—I’m Mikita.</p><p>In this episode, I’m getting real about this whole “soft life” conversation. I hear it, I see it, and I get the appeal… but let’s be honest—life doesn’t always give you the space to be soft. Sometimes you’re carrying a lot, you’re grinding, you’re holding things together—and comparing your life to someone else’s highlight reel? That will have you questioning yourself for no reason. What matters more is having real support—people who see you, not just the version of you that looks good online.</p><p>Then I get into what I like to call “wine, feelings, and bad decisions.” I share a story about Danielle—a woman who is always holding it down, always dependable. But one quiet night alone? Everything she’s been pushing down starts to come up—work, relationships, how she really feels about herself. One glass turns into a few, and before she knows it, she sends a text she wakes up regretting.</p><p>And here’s the thing—that moment isn’t weakness. It’s what happens when we don’t give ourselves space to process what we’re carrying. We get comfortable with chaos because it’s familiar, even when we say we want something different.</p><p>So I talk about the difference between trauma bonding and real support. Real support doesn’t just sit with you in the mess—it helps you process it, take accountability, and actually move forward.</p><p>I leave you with a few questions to sit with—about your patterns, your boundaries, and what it really looks like to choose yourself. And I tie it back to something that stuck with me from All About Love—love is not just about showing up halfway, it’s about effort and consistency.</p><p>Because at the end of the day, this isn’t about being perfect… it’s about being honest with yourself and doing the work to move differently.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1787178/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thyme4tea">Support the show</a></p><p>#selfdevelopment #Wellness <br/>#thym4teawithmikita #manifest #purposefulliving #liveunapplogectically #freedom #podcast #womeninpodcast #podcastlife #empoweringwomen <br/><br/></p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What if the recognition you&apos;re seeking isn&apos;t waiting on a stage somewhere, but right here in your own hands?<br/><br/>Recognition isn&apos;t just a trophy on your shelf—it&apos;s a form of rest. That sacred breath between survival and becoming. After four years of podcasting through empty seasons, echoing rooms, and uncertain words, I decided to give myself the damn award. No permission needed, no red carpet required. And it wasn&apos;t just celebration—it was interruption of an unhealthy cycle.<br/><br/>We often push ourselves far beyond reasonable limits, only acknowledging our need for rest when we&apos;re already operating in crisis mode. As the wise Olivia Pope once said, &quot;By the time you realize you&apos;re in crisis, it&apos;s already too late.&quot; This raw, celebratory episode explores what happens when we honor our journey before burnout forces us to pause. When we recognize that the work behind the work—the showing up, the consistency, the vulnerability—deserves celebration too.<br/><br/>You don&apos;t need panels of judges or viral success to determine your worth. The honest admission that you&apos;re doing your best is enough reason to celebrate. Whether it&apos;s taking yourself out for sushi, writing your own acceptance speech (thanking coffee and &quot;Beyoncé&apos;s internet&quot;), or simply pausing to acknowledge how far you&apos;ve come—these moments of self-recognition aren&apos;t self-indulgent; they&apos;re self-preserving.<br/><br/>Take this as your accountability partner&apos;s nudge: stop waiting for permission to slow down. Celebrate your journey not because you&apos;ve finally done enough, but because you are already enough.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever wondered what really happens behind the mic of your favorite independent podcasts? The truth might surprise you.<br/><br/>Welcome to a rare, unfiltered glimpse behind the curtain of Thym 4 Tea with Mikita. In this intimate first episode of my mini-series, I&apos;m spilling all the tea about what podcasting looks like when there&apos;s no production team, no fancy studio, and absolutely no playbook: just me, a microphone, and a mission.<br/><br/>From choosing themes based on what genuinely tugs at my heart rather than chasing trends, to the vulnerable moments of sitting with headphones on, wondering &quot;Does anyone even care what I&apos;m saying?&quot; – this journey has been anything but smooth. I share the technical nightmares (yes, I once forgot to hit record after a brilliant 30-minute conversation), the emotional rollercoaster of almost quitting multiple times, and the unexpected joy of having strangers yell &quot;Is it time for tea?&quot; across a store.<br/><br/>The podcast world often glamorizes the process, but the reality involves constant learning curves, battling insecurities, and figuring out how to create quality content without formal training or experience. Yet within these challenges lies the true magic: hitting publish on something you almost talked yourself out of, then hearing from someone who needed exactly those words.<br/><br/>Whether you&apos;re considering starting your creative endeavor or simply curious about the person behind the mic you listen to, this raw conversation offers a refreshing dose of reality paired with genuine encouragement. Remember, you don&apos;t need perfection to begin – you just need to start. And when you feel like quitting, ask yourself why. The answer might just bring you back home to yourself.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1787178/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thyme4tea">Support the show</a></p><p>#selfdevelopment #Wellness <br/>#thym4teawithmikita #manifest #purposefulliving #liveunapplogectically #freedom #podcast #womeninpodcast #podcastlife #empoweringwomen <br/><br/></p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Marie Malvoisin&apos;s transformative journey from Army officer to empowerment photographer reveals the profound power of reclaiming your authentic self. After serving 20 years in the military, Marie found herself emotionally depleted – functioning externally while dying inside, caught in an endless cycle of giving without receiving. The turning point came during a deployment when she discovered the revolutionary concept that &quot;no is a complete sentence.&quot;<br/><br/>Through her luxury boudoir photography studio, Bohemian Vision, Marie has created something far more meaningful than a photography business. She&apos;s built a sanctuary where women can safely explore vulnerability, often for the first time. What makes her approach revolutionary is her deep understanding of energy dynamics – many women operate predominantly in masculine energy as a defense mechanism when feeling unsafe in their environments. Marie&apos;s studio becomes the rare space where they can safely surrender to their feminine energy: creative, fluid, and powerfully vulnerable.<br/><br/>The session experience engages all senses – from carefully selected scents to textural elements like satin and velvet, creating an environment where clients gradually shed their armor. Marie describes the magical moment in each session when something shifts, and a woman sees herself through the camera and exclaims, &quot;That&apos;s me!&quot; with genuine wonder. For many clients, particularly those who&apos;ve experienced trauma, this becomes the moment they reclaim ownership of their bodies and stories.<br/><br/>Marie&apos;s philosophy of &quot;do it scared&quot; encourages women to push beyond their comfort zones, reminding us that true confidence comes from facing fears rather than avoiding them. Her work demonstrates that vulnerability, is our greatest source of power. Through her lens, women discover they are indeed &quot;that girl&quot; – the confident, sensual being they&apos;ve always been but perhaps never fully recognized.<br/><br/>Ready to rediscover yourself through Marie&apos;s transformative lens? Visit bohemianvisions.com or follow Bohemian Visions Photography on Instagram to begin your journey of self-reclamation.<br/><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1787178/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thyme4tea">Support the show</a></p><p>#selfdevelopment #Wellness <br/>#thym4teawithmikita #manifest #purposefulliving #liveunapplogectically #freedom #podcast #womeninpodcast #podcastlife #empoweringwomen <br/><br/></p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What if the key to a fulfilling life lies in small, consistent actions rather than grand gestures? Join me, Makita, on this episode of &quot;Time for Tea with Makita&quot; as we explore the transformative power of building trust and self-care through everyday habits. Drawing from Brene Brown&apos;s &quot;marble jar&quot; concept and James Clear&apos;s &quot;Atomic Habits,&quot; we&apos;ll discuss how simple acts like meditating, eating healthy, and practicing gratitude can accumulate over time, leading to substantial personal growth and self-love. We&apos;ll reflect on Aristotle&apos;s wisdom that excellence is formed by daily routines, and I&apos;ll share some heartwarming personal updates, including the joyful addition of a new cat, Turner, to my family.<br/><br/>In this episode, we focus on the concept of &quot;marble jar moments,&quot; where small daily actions contribute to building self-trust and care. I&apos;ll share how I adapted this idea to my life using a jar and colorful marbles as a visual representation of these efforts. The journey hasn&apos;t been without its challenges, but the process of adding marbles—representing acts of self-care—has been deeply fulfilling. Inspired by James Clear&apos;s principles, we&apos;ll emphasize the importance of progress over perfection, and how even small steps like self-reflection and gratitude can have a significant impact on our long-term goals.

Join me, Mikita, as I share my personal journey of living wholeheartedly, filled with moments of openness, authenticity, and sometimes, raw discomfort. Through my experiences, both triumphant and challenging, I unpack common misconceptions about wholehearted living and offer practical advice on navigating the discomfort of vulnerability. Learn why taking a step back to reset and recharge is essential, and discover the profound impact of letting go of the invisible chains that hold us back.<br/><br/>In this episode, let’s explore together why wholehearted living isn’t just about being perpetually joyful but about fully experiencing the spectrum of human emotions. I challenge the myth that we must face life’s journey alone and highlight the immense value that comes from building meaningful connections and seeking community support. By leaning into discomfort and allowing ourselves to be seen, we gain the courage to embrace life’s complexities with authenticity and purpose.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Are you among the many who believe sacrificing sleep might be the key to increased productivity? Let me, Mikita, alongside sleep expert Dr. Catherine Darley, unravel this misconception for you. In a culture where burning the midnight oil is often celebrated, we expose the truth behind the sleep-productivity myth and advocate for the counterintuitive approach that more sleep can mean better performance. We share personal experiences and the societal pressures that skew our perception of rest, making a compelling case for why your early bedtime might just be your secret weapon for success.<br/><br/>Dr. Darley and I delve into the revelatory impact that proper sleep can have on every facet of your life. With two decades of experience in sleep medicine, Dr. Darley provides invaluable insights into the transformative power of a good night&apos;s sleep on our relationships, emotional intelligence, and work output. We dissect the potential hazards of becoming too fixated on sleep metrics from wearable technology and discuss how a balanced view on sleep can prevent us from getting trapped in an unproductive cycle of sleep obsession and poor rest.<br/><br/>As we wrap up our conversation, we highlight the critical role sleep plays in self-care, emphasizing the necessity of consistent sleep patterns to harness the full spectrum of its benefits. Discover how aligning your sleep routine with your natural circadian rhythm can unlock a world of creativity, mental clarity, and patience. We debunk common sleep myths and stress the importance of waking up at the same time every day. Let this discussion guide you towards nurturing a healthier relationship with sleep and adopting the self-compassion necessary for a balanced and fulfilling life.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1787178/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thyme4tea">Support the show</a></p><p>#selfdevelopment #Wellness <br/>#thym4teawithmikita #manifest #purposefulliving #liveunapplogectically #freedom #podcast #womeninpodcast #podcastlife #empoweringwomen <br/><br/></p>]]></description>

Ever wondered how you can flip the script and start prioritizing your own goals for a change? Well, you&apos;ve come to the right place. This week, we&apos;re going to dive deep into the concept of personal success and how to claim it on your own terms. We&apos;ll explore the power of shifting your mindset, recognizing your own voice, and understanding the profound power of your choices.<br/><br/>As part of the journey, we’ll also delve into the impact of social media on our lives and how it can often steer us away from focusing on our personal goals. We&apos;ll discuss the importance of setting boundaries, reframing our perception of success, and how to manage the fear of missing out. We&apos;ll also reveal how you can turn the tables on the pervasive world of social media and use it to your advantage, rather than let it dictate your life. <br/><br/>Finally, we&apos;ll debunk the myth that being constantly &apos;busy&apos; equates to being productive. We&apos;ll shed light on the concept of intentional productivity, which emphasizes progress rather than a jam-packed schedule. We&apos;ll share some practical tips on how to set boundaries, understand the true meaning of success, and the power of saying &apos;no.&apos; It&apos;s all about creating a life that aligns with your personal values, desires, and goals.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Are you struggling with jealousy in your relationships? Do you feel like your jealousy is becoming toxic? Have you ever felt like you were an FBI agent in your own relationship? If so, it’s time to get some help. Join me as I spill tea with Shannon Bryant, certified life coach and host of the Jealousy Junkie podcast, as she shares her story of overcoming extreme jealousy and how to recognize when it’s becoming toxic in your relationship. Shannon Bryant will show you how to recognize when jealousy is becoming toxic and how to deal with a jealous partner. She will also outline the solutions and systems that she used to gain authenticity and confidence. Let’s start spilling the tea!<br/><br/><b>About Shannon Bryant</b><br/><br/>Shannon Bryant is a certified life coach and the host of the Jealousy Junkie podcast. Shannon is passionate about helping people redefine self-care and build their self-worth and has a unique perspective on how to address and manage feelings of jealousy. Shannon has been through her own journey of overcoming extreme jealousy and is ready to spill the tea on tackling these difficult conversations. Join Makita on Time for Tea with Makita as they discuss Shannon&apos;s journey and how to best deal with jealous feelings in relationships.<br/><br/><b>Why is it important to recognize when jealousy is becoming toxic in my relationship?</b><br/><br/>Recognizing when jealousy is becoming toxic in a relationship is incredibly important for maintaining a healthy and happy relationship. Jealousy can be a powerful emotion, and when left unchecked, it can have devastating consequences. It can lead to feelings of insecurity, possessiveness, and resentment, which can cause a strain on the relationship. By recognizing when jealousy is becoming toxic, you can take steps to address it before it leads to more serious issues. It is also important to recognize when jealousy becomes toxic in a relationship because it can lead to a lack of trust and communication between partners. When jealousy is allowed to take over, it can cause a couple to become suspicious and untrusting of one another, leading to misunderstandings and arguments. Additionally, it can make it difficult to communicate openly, as one partner may be afraid to share their true thoughts and feelings due to fear of the other&apos;s reaction. Recognizing when jealousy is becoming toxic can help to create an environment of trust and understanding, which is essential for any healthy relationship.<br/><br/>Here are the steps you need to follow:<br/>1. Acknowledging the root of jealousy and understanding its source.<br/>2. Recognizing the signs of extreme jealousy and seeking help.<br/>3. Creating an action plan to address the jealousy and take steps to move forward.<br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1787178/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thyme4tea">Support the show</a></p><p>#selfdevelopment #Wellness <br/>#thym4teawithmikita #manifest #purposefulliving #liveunapplogectically #freedom #podcast #womeninpodcast #podcastlife #empoweringwomen <br/><br/></p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Healing is the key to everything.<br/><br/><b>&quot;I just really want people to know that everything that they need is inside them already.&quot;</b><br/><br/>Carly George is a self-love coach and trauma specialist who helps women to heal from their childhood trauma and to practice self-care in a way that is healing.<br/><br/>This is Carly George&apos;s story...<br/><br/>Carly George is a woman who helps other women heal from trauma. She began her journey of helping others when she realized that the official health system wasn&apos;t helping people in the way she thought it should. Carly helps people to understand that everything they need is already inside them and that they don&apos;t need to go to an authority figure to get help. Instead, they should create practices that nurture and support them.<br/><br/>In this episode, you will learn the following:<br/>1. How our childhood trauma transitions into our daughter and how you and how all of us are affected by that 2. How we can practice more self-care in a way that is healing 3. How do you  move past suffering in your emotions, in your life<br/><br/><b>Resources:</b><br/><a href='https://thyme4teawithmikita.com/'>https://thyme4teawithmikita.com/</a><br/><br/><b>Chapter Summaries:</b><br/>[00:00:04] - Ms. Carly George is a guest on Carla&apos;s show today. We are going to talk about trauma and how it affects us. <br/><br/>[00:01:14] - Carly Jordan is on the path of helping other women to heal. She is inquisitive and she has always read loads of books. Carly believes that people are their own spiritual guidance, and healing is tapping into that spiritual connection to who you are and doing the hard work.<br/><br/> People are afraid of their feelings because they don&apos;t know how to listen to them. When they learn to reprogram their emotions, they can breathe through them in 90 seconds. It&apos;s hard work to do, but when they get used to the process, it&apos;s beautiful. Sometimes people get into toxic dynamics with people and they become their own abuses. People can&apos;t make you happy, and if that&apos;s what you&apos;re depending on, then you&apos;re never going to find the happiness that you&apos;re looking for. It&apos;s important to talk to yourself about what you want out of your relationship and then walk away. With each chapter, with each thing there you unlock a different part of who you are. They always should be a level of growth with each chapter. It&apos;s like you are like the seasons or the ocean. Not ever the same. Always moving, always flowing.<br/><br/> Carly is launching her first group coaching program for women at the beginning of October. It&apos;s going to be 8 weeks long, and it&apos;s about spiritual, emotional, physical, and self-care.

They always should be a level of growth with each chapter. It&apos;s like you are like the seasons or the ocean. Not ever the same. Always moving, always flowing.<br/><br/> Carly is launching her first group coaching program for women at the beginning of October. It&apos;s going to be 8 weeks long, and it&apos;s about spiritual, emotional, physical, and self-care. Carly is on Facebook under the name Courageously, and she has a group called Awakened Women reclaiming Emotional Sovereignty.<br/>Connect with Carly: <a href='http://facebook.com/courageouslycarly  https://www.facebook.com/groups/3067192570210928/'>http://facebook.com/courageouslycarly  https://www.facebook.com/groups/3067192570210928/</a><br/><br/><b>Other episodes you&apos;ll enjoy:</b><br/><a href='https://open.spotify.com/episode/4F2TdCL1lLHkUVpWnOXxye?si=2f5598bd86c04634'>Zavonda Parrish: How To Embrace The Past To Step Into Your Purpose</a><br/><a href='https://open.spotify.com/episode/3ZUw4ptmzR83Bp7I5aO3D4?si=AUICwp2HS_C5qb0QVDi1dQ'>Ayesis Clay: Recognizing The Symptoms Of Compassion Fatigue</a><br/><b>Connect with me:<br/> </b><a href='https://www.instagram.com/thyme4teawithmikita/'>https://www.instagram.com/thyme4teawithmikita/</a><br/><a href='https://RateThisPodcast.com/thyme4tea'>Rate this podcast</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1787178/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thyme4tea">Support the show</a></p><p>#selfdevelopment #Wellness <br/>#thym4teawithmikita #manifest #purposefulliving #liveunapplogectically #freedom #podcast #womeninpodcast #podcastlife #empoweringwomen <br/><br/></p>]]></content:encoded>

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How do you start the process of healing? Join the conversation on how to start your season of healing. There is no one size fits all when it comes to healing yourself or our relationships. We get tips, tools and resources that may guide us in the direction of healing. However true healing takes a vulnerability and a willingness to not just try but to do. <br/><br/>In this amazing conversation I sit down with Jackey Neyman Jones Author of (Growing Up With Manos: Hands Of Fate) as she describes what it was like to grow with a father who battled depression. The movie he produced and she starred in &quot;Manos: Hands Of Fate&quot; that was named the worst movie ever in history. Jackey also shares how she had to find her season of healing in order to mend the relationship with her father. Join the conversation and while your at it please share yours too.  The tea is getting hot as we dive into how healing starts from within. <br/><br/>Signup for my FREE Wednesday Night Cap relaxation space.

It is so easy to just make up reason for not applying for the job, or why you don&apos;t have time to put your health first.

So what if your knees are shaking  and your heart feels like it&apos;s about to jump through your chest. You got this. Self-care is about planting the seeds or growth, nurturing them into fruition then harvesting that positive energy and sharing it with the world. <br/>I am also letting go of situations, places, people, bad habits, food addictions that do not help me to grow into everything I was meant to be. No this will not be an easy process it takes small steps that eventually become bigger, bolder and more confident with each decision we make that brings empowerment. <br/>This is your year of healing.

Some of us work outside, at home, with nature, in a building, or travel for a living. Regardless of where your at the one thing that we forget is that self-care also extends into the work place. Join me and my special guest Anne Okafor as we talk about how self-care shows up in some of our non traditional workspaces such as construction. Learn how she is making a difference to change the cultural by redefining it to met the needs of the construction workers. Also let&apos;s talk about the many opportunities that are in construction that you may not know exist. We live in the age of technology yet some of us forget that every building we enter or admire was designed or built by someone then constructed by others.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Are you a are caregiver or know someone who is a caregiver? The truth is we are all caregivers in some form. A huge part of self-care is remembering that you can not fill from an empty cup. On this episode I have not one but two BESTSELLING AUTHORS Meriam Boldewijn author of Caregiver 2.0 From Burnout To Powerhouse and Ashley Jackson-Thompson author of Lost Travel Found: Turning Pain to Purpose.  Ashley is a graduate of Xavier University, where I studied Finance and Human Resources (HR). I then went onto receiving my master’s degree in Human Resources Management, which I have spent 10+ years of my professional career practicing. After my husband was diagnosed and beat a rare cancer in stage 4, I came to know my purpose in life. Timeless Dream Events mission and vision is to provide terminally ill people and their family members with a “timeless dream event” that will celebrate life and love. We plan various events, at minimal notice due to each unique and sensitive situation. I am humbled by being able to turn my own pain into being a blessing to others. These amazing women share their stories of pain, uncertainty, and hope while dealing with the burnout and stress. Some times as caregivers we think that we are in control and handling things so well but the truth is the body all ways tell the truth. Some of the signs of burnout can present in headaches, weight gain, total shut down, anxiety, stomach pains/ulcers. You can only pretend for so long then you have to face the music. In this heart found conversation we spill tea on how you can prevent burnout, and manage stress as a caregiver. You are never alone.
