Is it hard for you to celebrate your wins? Does it feel weird to say you are proud of yourself? Why is it so much easier to commiserate than to celebrate?

In this SPARKE SNACK (shorter episode) @Betsyhoo and @HalcyonPink share some of the ways they practice highlighting achievements - and why it is so important.

In this episode of Stay Sparked, we dive into the often misunderstood world of meditation. If the word itself makes you feel like you’re “not doing it right,” you’re not alone. We’re breaking it down and lifting the pressure, exploring how meditation isn’t about silencing your mind — it’s about creating space to notice, feel, and reconnect.

We share personal stories, unexpected approaches, and ways to bring mindfulness into everyday life (even if you can’t sit still). Whether you’re brand new to meditation or looking to deepen your practice, this conversation offers gentle encouragement and a spark of inspiration.
