Totally Fine: Navigate Life with Love

Join longtime techie and current life coach Christina Bogatsky as she explores how we can lean into greater love and compassion with ourselves while life continues to throw curve balls. After 20 years of corporate roles in tech, digital media, and finance, Christina found herself as a stay-at-home mom in the middle of the pandemic trying to figure out what life would look like next. Totally Fine: Navigate Life with Love is a series of monologues and conversations looking earnestly and honestly at who we are, being kind to ourselves, and finding deeper meaning in our days on this planet.

6. Vanity, Plastic Surgery, and Celebrating Differences in the Face of Raising Daughters

I share my thought process surrounding my decision to get plastic surgery after having my two kids. I touch on how I broach not only my upcoming surgery but also aesthetic topics more generally with my daughter. I feel strongly about the need to encourage more open, less shame-based discourse about the female body. We start this by discussing and honoring our decisions and helping support earlier generations in embracing differences and loving themselves. Specifically regarding my approach in ma...

1. Punt the Ego and Do a Podcast

Welcome to the Totally Fine podcast: where we discuss navigating life with love 🫶🏽 In my inaugural episode, I talk about the series of events that led to what I call my “unbecoming.” I share my most significant observations and learnings as I transitioned (what seemed like overnight) from a longtime corporate employee to a stay-at-home mom and why these learnings are relevant to so many of us. It all comes down to one theme: Life may be a little better and gentler with us if we are gentler wit...

4. Facing Holiday Inertia: When to Resist vs. When to Give In

The holidays can be wildly overwhelming!

2. Harness Growth When Times Are Dim: The Dark Night of the Soul

The Dark Night of the Soul is a concept of struggle and rebirth known also as ego death, an existential crisis, and the process of hitting rock bottom and overcoming. In this discussion, I use “The Dark Night of the Soul” as coined by St. John of the Cross to describe the meaning and value in letting go of certain attachments (to beliefs, norms, habits) in order to better understand who we are at our core. You may replace my use of “detachment” with surrender, letting go of, purging, releasing -...
