Hi there. This is the first episode of season 02! Yay! I had no intention of recording an episode but here I am. The best way is always to start. In this episode I talk about my fear of turning 30, breaking the seal and adjusting to loss and realising some flaws within myself. A personal episode, basically if you enjoy me talking about myself then maybe this is for you. And for that dear listener, I am truly grateful for. Also of you know what 13 going in 30's slogan was about turning 30, please let me know coz I literally butchered it lol.

Checking in mentally and the lowdown

I am feeling anxious and out of touch with reality. In this episode I havr a general discussion about how I'm feeling in the present and how I'm trying to heal the parts of me that I have been avoiding. I am also reading two poems written by Grace Storm from her first collection of poems called With Time and Light. Regardless of how trapped I occasionally feel inside my head, there is always light that shines through, no matter how dim.

Trying to understand, a personal story

I believe that our friends are replicas of ourselves. Life has taught me a lot about the people I surround myself with. I am grateful for my connections with beautiful souls. As well as the teachable moments that have presented when things don't work out.

What life has taught me about friendships

Howzit! The tabs were open in my mind. Talking about my vaccine registration and first jab, covid 19, Devilsdorp, gratitude, books, hair - Basically a mix of whatever I was thinking whilst recording.

In conversation with myself

Sharing what's been happening the past two months. Inspiration from Nightbirde, Oprah Winfrey etc and references to Grace Storm and Thandiwe Nqanda. A message of choosing to be Happy!

Maltese Cross Hike

A vocal record of experiences I lived through as written in my journal. In this episode I share two stories.

Journal Stories

This episode is more personal. I identify as a feminist. I've also experienced casual sexism within my everyday life and professional life. All opinions shared are my own. I make reference to 'We should all be feminists' written by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and femism. I also made a mistake, National Women's Day is celebrated on 9 August in South Africa. And International Women's Day is celebrated on the 8th of March. So I made a mix-up.

My experience with Casual Sexism

I've been feeling disoriented, hopeless and sad. But there are always ways to change that. Recommend watching Mandy Saligari' Ted Talk called Feelings: Handle them before they handle you.

Things can Change

Welcome to Eelox Frequency! I share personal stories on this platform, it differs from episode to episode. I am an outdoor enthusiast, social media obsessed millenial and lover of all things creative. It's where my inspiration comes from. The main objective is to live with no regrets and to truly experience life with all its thrills and nulls.

I climbed a mountain, a literal mountain. I feel grateful for this. I feel grateful for mobility. The going was tough, quite literal actually. When I started with my hiking team, I thought it was just a normal trek. The mountain stood above me, and I hovered for a moment internally. Like was I going to be able to complete this?I realised then the symbolism of doubting before setting path on the goal.I starting doubting my physical strength and my mental stance. But I told myself quite loudly that I could do this. That I could and will complete this mountain, see the waterfall amd dip into the cool mountain water. And that’s what I did.For nearly two hours the mission was upwards. Looking up occasionally to see how far you still have to go. I weighed my options telling myself “you can still go down, but look how far you’ve come already”. And then proceeded to step further, listening to my feet as I strode.When we reached the waterfall, I couldn’t hide my excitement any longer. The ethereal beauty of the mountain rage, it truly humbled me. I did in fact swim in the water. I felt pure bliss. The reward was greater than the test. And the walk down was actually fun too, filled with excitement for the next challenge.We all face mountains in our lives. Some mountains are bigger and more difficult to climb. The going doesn’t get easier. But don’t give up when starting. Along the way you will come to see extraordinary things, you will learn about yourself, you will become aware of the paths you walk on. Once you reach the top; You’ll see the power that is within you!
