Summary

Episode 142: Happy New Year to the realest listeners out there! Natalie couldn’t think of a better way to ring in the year and start off 2022 strong than by hopping on the mic. Not going to lie - 2021 was a bit of a blur and time feels like it froze back in 2020, but there is a lot of hope for the year ahead. Natalie is back for a solo episode to reflect on the previous year and share her highs and lows in her career and personal life as well goals and ambitions for 2022. She opens up about the challenges she faced in moving to Miami and how she felt incredibly lonely in the beginning. She also shares her experiences with social media burnout and pressure, her hesitancy to complain, and how this year is going to involve a lot more rest and relaxation. We hope this episode inspires you and encourages you to reflect on this past year as well!

0:04.0	Welcome to the Real Real, where I take you behind the Instagram reel and into the real lives of
0:16.1	entrepreneurs, content creators, and anyone who inspires me and may inspire you too.
0:21.1	I'm your host Natalie Barboo and let's get into it. Hello, hello, hello everyone. Welcome back to the podcast. Welcome to the
0:35.9	real podcast. Today I am recording a solo episode and I wanted to start this
0:41.4	year by chatting just one-on-one with you.
0:44.0	I cannot believe that it's already 2022.
0:46.4	It feels like it's still 2020.
0:48.9	Like I feel like time has permanently frozen at around 2020 March to be specific but no seriously
0:55.5	after that everything has been a blur I feel like the years have gone on so

1:29.0	something I say literally every single year next year I'll be saying the same thing. You can count on it. But I know that there are probably a ton of
1:36.5	podcast that you're listening to about the new year and about goals, but I really do hope this one is a little bit different and I hope that this
1:43.0	what encourages you to reflect and also inspires you for the new year that's
1:48.1	coming. I wanted to start off this podcast by giving my highs and lows which is a
1:52.1	very frequent segment that I do on almost every episode but instead of doing
