This episode is unlike the others, and once you listen, you will understand why. As you listen, you will see how easy it would be for her to keep quiet and not share. However, her vulnerability an honesty are quite admirable. Here is what Corinne has to say:

"My life looks drastically different than I imagined it would when I was in my early twenties. Which is definitely a product of my story being shared here. But when I take a step back, all I see is blessings and God's hand on every step of my life. Currently, I have been married to my best friend, Josh, for 8 years. We have two boys, ages 5 and 2. Getting to be a wife and a mother is something I was unsure of happening in my life and I'm beyond thankful for all the memories and life lessons.After a few career changes, I am now Co-founder of GalFunction. A community where local women in business gather to forge meaningful connections and elevate their ventures in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Creating community is at the core of who I am today because I have seen first hand the importance of being surrounded by others who love and support each other. "

Infant loss has been a taboo topic for too long. My guest today is breaking the silence and giving voice to her son, Derrick.

"My name is Alexandria! I’m the founder and President of Derrick Stone Safe Sleep. I started spreading safe infant sleep awareness after the sudden loss of my son, Derrick. He has brought so much awareness into this world. He left a mark on me, and I have learned so much from him. He is my hero! I hope that you feel his light shine through me. I have learned so much through my trials, and I hope that what I have taken away from situations, you may apply into yours. Perspective is everything, and I couldn’t do this without the Holy Spirit."

Season 2 kicks off with this transparent conversation with Marie Lovett. This mother of two tells her story of growing up in a home that was anything but stable and the struggles that she has experienced as a result of her environment. But her story doesn't end there...she decided to create a life worth living!

Marie Lovett is a closet-extrovert, enneagram 6 (she'll always worry and wonder if she said the wrong thing!), and coffee-loving mom + wife living a dream life she never expected to have. She is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™  and personal finance coach, and loves to use her passions to help educate and empower others, especially women. You can find her on instagram at @brewwealth

Season two takes on a whole new look! This series is a passion project that led me to talk with nine women who have all been through various forms of trauma. And each one of them decided that their trauma was not going to define the end of their happiness...they have leaned on resources, including their own inner strength, to create a life they love! These are stories of strength, grace, determination, and love. I hope you find hope and encouragement as you join us this season for some conversations over A Cup of Happy.

FRIENDS!!! This is the LAST episode of the first season of A CUP OF HAPPY! I've learned so much, and I'm so grateful that you continued to show up and press play. Get ready, Season 2 is going to be INCREDIBLE!!

In this episode, I have a conversation with Susie Q, AKA the Reinvention Warrior. We talk about life transitions, particularly as a woman. The conversation is transparent and vulnerable, and anyone who listens is likely to find a piece of her story relatable.

Ready to quit your job? Susie Q is an expert coach at helping women transition from the traditional 9-5 into a life and career of their own design. Her book, published and released in 2023, is called "Corporate Exit Planning: The Ambitious Woman's Roadmap to Leaving Her 9-5." The pages are full of helpful insights and strategic planning guides to help you gain confidence in who you are and the timing of your exit.

Overcoming trauma takes intentional action. Building a life that feels good takes intentional action. Creating a life you love takes intentional action. Acheiving your goals and dreams requires intentional action.

Do you see the pattern? Intentional action is key to your happiness. Take it from me.

In this episode, I share an interview that was recorded in Aug of 2023...before A Cup of Happy was an actual podcast. Liza Hippler, the host of Create Beautifully, invited me on as part of her miniseries on starting a podcast. We talk about all the things, from starting a podcast, my reason for wanting to do a podcast, and I share my story of how I got to where I am today.

This perfectly aligns with my group coaching launch set for Feb 1, 2024. Dream. Decide. Do. is the foundation of that program.

I hope you enjoy this episode as you learn a little more about me.

In this episode, I talk about the three parts of goal setting. And then I dive into the main obstacles that prevent us from achieving our goals.

At the end of this episode, I make an announcement about my new group coaching set to launch on February 1, 2024.
