Curious Mind in Progress
Louiza Maxime
An insight into my 22 y/o, curious, female mind in 2023, that is questioning different subjects and reflects on life with all its beautiful and challenging experiences. I aspire for this podcast to be a platform where everyone feels welcome and can relate to some of the things I talk about as we all just try to navigate life as best as we can. I post whenever I feel the need to share something! Socials: Instagram: @curiousmindinprogress / @louiza_maxime Youtube: @louiza_maxime cover credit: @cara.wanderer
Dieting, and Other Ways to Waste your Time
Starting 2024 off right, by talking all things concerning diet culture and myths around dieting! This time I invited my friend Kerstin onto the show, who is a trained Dietitian and who will provide all kinds of interesting information. As we delve deep into unhealthy myths and standards that have been floating around for centuries, around how and what we consume, how we view ourselves and others, and what is considered a healthy and balanced diet, we discover ways to better one's own relationship with food and our own bodies, in order to spread awareness around all the misinformation that is on the internet! Trigger Warning: We discuss body image-related issues, weight, food, and more. If you feel uncomfortable with such topics, this episode might not be for you! (Or maybe it can help you despite its triggers <3) If you like what you heard, make sure to follow me on all social media platforms to not miss out on new episodes! Can't wait to hear you next time!

Just Being
In this episode, I share and reflect on how in the western world, productivity is often linked to one's self-worth and how that influences how we set goals and view structures in life. I also discuss a little bit why goals can also be a hindrance and first and foremost share why I stopped making episodes for such a long time. Stay connected if you liked what you heard!

Episode Seven: "Its really about getting up everyday and choosing who you want to be."
In today's episode, my Dad and I speak about why it's so important to trust in yourself and love yourself and how to find your own vision career-wise (or support other people's visions).  I realized that I interrupt my Dad A LOT and I'm very sorry in advance and hope you can learn from his knowledge and enjoy nonetheless. I definitely learned that I have to work on not interrupting and getting my thoughts out as soon as possible, but rather respect what the other person is saying. I've linked everything we spoke about here:  "Atomic Habits" by James Clear - https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habits "The Golden Circle" by Simon Sinek - https://simonsinek.com/commit/the-golden-circle Thank you so much for being on this Episode and sharing your experiences Dad!
