Feeling inadequate is unfortunately more common than many realize.

But you are amazing, fully capable, and completely worthy.

If you have ever felt this way or struggled with this, know you are not alone - and I hope this episode brings you encouragement and value on your journey.

XO,

Shannon

You don't have to be in the medical field to save a life.

The work medical professionals do is amazing and admirable, but you can save a life in your every day relationships by being present and supportive and walking the hard roads with people so things don't feel so heavy and they don't feel alone.

XO,

Shannon

You are responsible for your life.

Others' expectations can be heavy, especially if you're a recovering people-pleaser, but you are responsible for your life.

Are You Who You Want to Be?

Energy is something we constantly wish we had more of to increase productivity and just feel better.

While there are lots of options on the market, most don't support your healthy goals of honoring your body.

There are good options for supplements, but also natural ones that we can control with both our movement and nutrition.

XO,

Shannon

Spring Forward is often a stressful time because most of us are already overtired and stressed.

There are ways to help adjust to new routines while honoring your priorities without burning out.

Let's talk about the choices that affect our health, physically and mentally, during this time and any routine change that can help us make the shift successfully.

Overwhelm and stress are sneaky, and will always try to work themselves into our life.

Although we can't completely avoid them, having the tools to recognize and quickly work through them is powerful.

Healthy habits are for more than just nutrition and fitness, but working to have a high EQ (emotional intelligence) for yourself and others and being intentional with your choices to work through hard times will help you to feel calmer, more in control, and maintain a healthy balance of stress in your life.

Decluttering is common for our closet and drunk drawer, but it's also necessary in our life.

Identifying what is causing you to feel stressed, overwhelmed, even less than enough needs to be addressed in a healthy way so you can be your best self in all areas.

Not always an easy task, but definitely necessary for focus and growth - this will help you to lighten your load and show up better in every area.

XO,

Shannon

Being "always on" or available is not healthy.

People love it because it serves them, but I would argue it does more harm than good - for others and yourself.

You need to know it's ok to have healthy boundaries, and the more you level-up and stop people-pleasing, the more you will be able to perform at a high level because you are taking time for you.

XO,

Shannon

Multitasking sounds good, until we realize the time and value it costs.

We can't do multiple things well at the same time, so learning to group tasks, protect our time, and limit distractions all help us do more and a better job while avoiding burnout.

Forgiveness and unforgiveness are a choice that is yours.

It's empowering and also scary, but the choice affects you, your life, and those in your life.

Whether you ever tell anyone or not, forgiveness is necessary for you to truly heal and life a full life, free of bitterness and resentment. It isn't easy, but it is worth it.

Shannon
