Happy Hour with Gretchen Geraghty

Wow, can you guys believe this is episode 30 of happy hour!! Can't believe I have 30 of these episodes out there! Anyway, kind of a random topic right now, but one that I've always wanted to talk about. I talk about my journey through injury and recovery personally, and also touch on what I've learned from that and through close family and friends. A physical injury affects way more than your body- it can be very challenging mentally. I hope this can help any of you that have dealt with injury and know that you're not alone, and that I'm cheering for you over here. Love your body, take care of yourself, and find joy in your physical activity (if you can of course) as well as other hobbies + passions!

I dedicated this episode to talk all about self care, loving yourself, and putting yourself first. It's something we all work on + will continue to work on. It's definitely not always easy, and can be easier said than done, but is an essential part in our wellbeing and happiness. Self care I think means something different to each of us, but I talk about what it means to me. I also talk about ways I know I'm loving myself and how to realize if you aren't. And lastly I talk about how to prioritize advocating for yourself and your best interests/ put yourself first.

Today I talk all about receiving negativity being a social media influencer. It can also be translated to receiving any kind of negativity, even if its not through social media. I talk about growing up and getting negative comments starting at 15 years old and how it would affect me then, versus how I deal with it now. I've gained a lot of confidence and a thick skin from negative comments, so in a way I'm grateful for them. I also talk about how I've noticed at times with an overwhelming negative response, it can come with grains of truth. And that they're times of good learning experiences and reflection.

I finally decided to dedicate an entire episode to why I'm so happy and positive and how I think I got to be that way. A lot of it is how I think I just am, and how I am from my happy childhood, but I discuss different areas of happiness, positivity, and optimism and where I think they come from. My biggest tips and things that help me are finding the silver lining in things, being thankful for difficult situations that teach you lessons, learning to love yourself, prioritizing your mental health, and having gratitude and recognizing your privilege.

Short but sweet this week with some realizations I've had during quarantine. I talk about how I was quite sad, anxious, frustrated, and discouraged at the beginning of all of this. And I still feel these emotions here and there due to our current circumstances. However, I had a shift in my mindset of how we have the privilege of working on ourselves in this moment. To be the best versions of ourself, taking care of ourself, and going after what we've always wanted to. There are no more excuses since you can't leave your house and you have all the time in the world to dedicate to things you've always wanted to do, whether that be start a new side hustle, read more, get back into running, etc. Whatever IT is you can do IT now!

I've wanted to talk about losing my Dad in a podcast episode for a while now but I didn't know how and I didn't feel ready. I realized I don't think I'm ever really ready to talk about him, how much he meant to me, and how badly I miss him. But the reason I pushed myself to make this episode is because I know how many of you have dealt with loss and I just want to help in any way I can. I'm sure you can understand why this episode is all over the place and emotional, so bare with me. I talk about the moments leading up to losing my Dad and the moments right after. I touch on grieving, but I definitely want to make an entire other episode for that as well. I talk about signs he's sent me from heaven and things that make me feel better and how I cope. I wish so much health and happiness upon you your family, and friends, but if you find yourself in a situation with loss I hope this can help you. Lastly, I love you all and I hope you're staying safe and healthy right now. Be sure to check out my YouTube channel

One of you suggested I cover this topic and I thought it was such a good idea with spring break season being right now and getting into the spring and summer. I recorded this before COVID-19 had escalated to this extent, so I understand that many travel plans have been cancelled or postponed. That being said, I share my advice on how to stay on track with your healthy living lifestyle while traveling and especially being on vacation. Even if this can't apply to you right now, hopefully it can in the future. I catch up a bit on my life and how I was feeling about turning 23 this year for my birthday.

In this episode I sat down with SoulCycle instructor Maddy to hear about how she does it all! I've been so excited for this episode and I know you guys have been too. Maddy tells us about her journey to become a SoulCycle instructor, her motivations, and her favorite and least favorite parts of the job. She also gets real with us on what she eats day to day to fuel herself, how she recovers and deals with being sore, and what her favorite leggings and spin shoes are to ride in. Maddy is a huge personal inspiration for me on and off the bike, as well as an inspiration for the Boston community. I always describe her a blonde little energizer bunny on a bike and you really can't understand how incredible her classes are until you go to one. We discuss most of your questions and I can't wait to hear what y'all think!

I've thought about this idea for awhile and just wanted to share my favorite luxury purchases. I was hesitant to record this episode due to the stigma that can often surround the world of luxury. However, as materialistic as it can sound, some of my luxury purchases are my most favorite things that bring me joy. They tie me to certain experiences and travel that I will never forget. So if you want to hear about my favorite designer shoes, bags, jewelry, etc. this episode is for you!

These are topics we all face at one point or another. Feeling lost in your purpose or sense of direction in life is something most of us face and I discuss how I deal with it. Making friends and specifically best friends that you can share everything with and will always be there for you is something we all want. I know making friends, keeping in touch + building deep connections can be challenging, but it's something thats completely worth it and I talk on my experience with friends.
