The holiday reminders we all need to hear
I love the holiday season, like maybe a little too much. But it comes with some baggage. Today, we're talking about things to keep in mind before the festivities start. Things like how to deal with family, and their politics, how to appreciate what you have and appreciate where other people are in life.With love, LexiKeep up with me here, too:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lexxhidalgo/?hl=enMoments IG: https://www.instagram.com/themomentspod/?hl=enTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lexxhidalgoYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZpEdIqyesP-XZn89i0yNpQAnd order the journal that sparked it all, so excited for you to experience the moments journal too 💖 https://themomentspodcast.com/pages/journal Learn more about your ad choices.

Lexi's bag: Reading listener journal entries
Today is a very special episode! I asked if you wanted to share journal entries with me to read on the pod and so many of you did. The idea is that yes, we can all feel alone, but it also feels so much less lonely knowing that we all go through similar struggles. So let's not waste time and get into it! In this episode, we'll talk about:
Feeling lonely or lacking friends, especially when it comes to big life changes
Swimming through feelings of being stuck in life
Help! I just got to college and I lost my identity :,)
And then, a moment of gratitude from a listener!

Is your partner a walking red flag? Ask yourself these questions
If you're looking for a man instead of a boy, what questions should you ask yourself? I could talk about this topic F O R E V E R. Why? Because I've dated all the bad ones. So, here are some questions you should ask yourself when you start a new relationship with a partner. In this episode, we'll talk about:
Why it matters where and how you met
Why it matters who their friends are
Why it matters how they treat their family
Asking if your morals align (yes, it even matters if you vote similarly)
And, pretty basic stuff but, do they respect you?!

A few things I never thought I would grow out of
There are things about me that always stood out that everyone would comment on...like my freckles. They probably didn't know how much I used to hate them. But something changed over time and now I see them as a beautiful thing.I want to share some other things that I've grown out of (mindsets, body acceptance, horrible boys) and how. In this episode we'll talk about:
Working through insecurities
Dealing with the desire to impress
Understanding my need to prove myself to adults and older people
And, growing out of the need to always be happy

Lexi Life Update: The trials and tribulations of the last few weeks
Sometimes life is a fun trip or photoshoot with friends. Easy going and lots to enjoy. Other times, it takes everything inside of you not to just collapse. For me, these last few weeks have been a CHALLENGE. And today, without dumping too much, I want to share what's been going on and how I've been getting through it. Some of the things we'll talk about:
How living in Florida this month has been terrifying (hurricanes AND tornados?!)
How to care for animals during storms and what you can do
My journey to fostering dogs
My journey to being traumatized by fostering dogs
And, hear about the lovely, and difficult, story of 'Chicken'

Changing my relationship with alcohol with Dr. Jessica Leon
Something you may not know about me is that I've been alcohol-free for the past three months. It hasn't been easy. Basically, I started paying attention to my body and how I felt the days after I drank -- anxious, sad and just no energy. I've taken breaks before but I would always come back to drinking. So to better understand my relationship with alcohol, I brought on one of the smartest people I know onto the pod, Dr. Jessica Leon.Some of the things we get into here:
A judgment-free conversation about (legal) drinking
How exactly alcohol became so unavoidable
How binge drinking steals our peace...and how it also steals our sleep! And our money :,)
What exactly alcohol does to our bodies
And, Dr. Jessica provides a checklist for questions we can ask ourselves to see if we're ready to change our relationship to alcohol

It's ok to talk about trauma with Charlie Webster
There are things I hate to talk about. Things that I'd literally rather do anything else in the world than unpack. But I've learned the hard way that if I don't talk about the hard things, the challenges I've faced, I stay stuck. Charlie Webster is an author, podcast host and superstar journalist, and she says not only is it ok to talk about those hard things, but you have to! Some things we'll talk about this week:
How to make space to process your trauma
How your critical voice is a roadmap to the things keeping you stuck
Her upbringing, which was difficult but made her the woman she is today and why she shares her story
And, all of the other surprising things she's done with her platform

Your questions, my advice
I asked for your questions and they have been piling up in my DMs. Today is the day we start to dig in and answer them together! These honestly are my favorite episodes because, as you know I'm not a therapist, but I am someone who's gone through, and is going through, a lot of the same things. And sometimes you want to hear from people who can relate to you. Some things we'll talk about this week:
How to deal with friendship jealousy (of all kinds)
Making friends as an introvert with social anxiety
Tips on relationships, like moving from a crush to a LTR or knowing what your boundaries are and sticking to them
And, advice for both freshman and seniors!
