This is a super quick one about my theory about meditation and cold plunges shrinking a cyst in my boob. It’s October which means cooler weather, cold plunges, breast cancer awareness month, and Dr Joe Dispenza on repeat in my meditation. Today I talk all about all of these things, even though they seem like they wouldn’t go together, but in my life they do! Also, I tell you a little story about how we met Michael Phelps this summer, and how he convinced my husband, that cold plunges really are the real deal!

Today I have the most wonderful conversation with one my favorite therapists of all time! Not only is she adorable, cool, love the beach as much as me, and funny as hell, she also specializes in helping clients work through their shadow and begin feeling grounded and more present and good in their lives. She talks to us today about how you can change your way of thinking and learn to react well to your triggers and find solutions to face your triggers with calm and reasonable behavior. She also explains how social media is impacting our children and gives tips to help moms navigate the field. She also has some fabulous teen and Mom groups that should be mandatory for all of us as we move into the holidays, so that we can approach this sometimes triggering time with fun, ease and joy. This is a must listen!!

{17:30} Reacting well to your triggers 

{30:05} setting limits on social media with little kids 

{35:00} All about Mom group

 All about Caroline: The ocean is my happy place and where I reconnect and rejuvenate. One of my self-care practices is getting back to Maui and the Hawaiian Islands at least once a year. This allows my soul to reconnect with the island and the Aloha I discovered and enveloped years ago when I planted my roots in Maui and lived out my 20s. After years of traveling and living in different states and climates, I planted my roots in Oregon and have been here for the past 16 years. There is no denying the Oregon coast and the Hawaiian Islands are both majestic and healing in their own unique, breathtaking, and beautiful ways. I often tell my clients to find a place or activity that feeds their souls and revisit that space as often as I can. Whether that is physically, mentally, emotionally, or visually. Or all of the above! I love spontaneous excursions and exploring new places and faces with my partner, and our two love-filled, wild & free, compassionate & courageous sweet boys, our much-loved puppy, and dear friends. We all enjoy taking time out of the daily responsibilities of life every so often to enjoy a mental health day together. If you haven’t incorporated mental health days into your life/work/balance routine… get started now! We all need mental health days. Children, teens, parents, professionals… all of us! Take one, you won’t regret it. Finding the balance between helping others and self-care is where I flow and continue to grow. As most of us know, self-care isn’t always easy, especially for caregivers and those in the helping field. But, it’s essential to show up for others feeling grounded and present. I am always learning and building upon my self-care practices so I can continue to support others and help them connect with their inner harmony.

Have you ever heard the term "manic manifesting"? It's something that people in the spiritual and self improvement community don't discuss much, but I think it's a very important thing we need to bust the myth on. I can't wait for you to get this little bit of my two cents on how to manifest beautifully and easily and also how to keep from manic manifesting. And, if you do catch yourself in this trap, I give you a few steps on how to release the manic and bring back the beautiful, synchronistic manifesting we all crave.

Are you ready to ditch the yoga pants every day? I know it's a hard thing to do, especially if you are a stay at home mom, but this interview with the fabulous Alison Lumbatis of Get Your Pretty On is all about that. It's so important to take the time to spend a little time feeling better every day, and what better way than to get dressed. She has an amazing online community devoted to this alone, and she has also written a fabulous book that details the step by step process and makes it so easy. Alison joins us today to encourage all of you pretty ladies to get out of your yoga pants and get your pretty on! As mothers, we can embrace whatever stage of life we are in and still look hot. Alison shares some tips to help you get started on the journey to get your pretty on. She even talks about fall trends, what to spend money on and what to save on, and why it's so important to get dressed every day. I think you're really going to enjoy this one!

Conversation Highlights:

{06:20} Alison’s favorite thing

{10:00} Embrace the Empty Nest

{15:20} Alison’s Journey to find her pretty

{20:00} Outfit formulas

{31:00} Alison’s Fall events

Alison’s Bio:

I’m Alison, the mom of three and recovering yoga pants addict behind Get Your Pretty On. To be honest, I started GYPO from a place of not taking very good care of myself.

Because on some level, I didn’t feel like I was worth it.

After starting to work from home a few years ago, I lost all accountability for getting dressed. I didn’t leave the house some days, so I stopped making the effort because I felt like it just wasn’t worth it.

My rut deepened and started to affect more than my appearance but also my motivation, mood, happiness, and health.

I realized that something had to change, and it was as easy as taking one small step in the right direction. Here’s what turned it all around for me:

I got up, got dressed, and got ready for the day – and I did it just for me.

My motivation came back, and my mood turned around. That one small action created big changes that still have ripple effects to this day, including setting an example for my daughters.

Many women come to GYPO feeling the same way – stuck in a rut but not quite sure where to start. Here you’ll find easy ways to get dressed every day and feel pretty again.

This is a real life quickie about really getting back into alignment and slowing the F down. I needed to reset after a major crazy three months of travel and changes and chaos and it was so wonderful to get back into slowing down and feeling great. It's amazing how much life can get easier when you decide to stop hustling so much and relaxing into all the good things life has to offer.

This is a real life quickie about how I used manifestation and visualization techniques with my client to manifest her dream buyer at the dream price. I cannot make this stuff up. I think I even made a believer out of my client! Take a listen. Also, don't forget to give me a call if you ever want to buy, sell or fix up your home now. My husband and I are passionate about helping people live in their dream homes, and we love to make that a reality!

What’s the difference? I dive into why we should add some feminine energy to our lives and not only focus on masculine energy to get things done. Pretty fascinating to see how these together can make magic happens. But you need both.

Amazing songs to move energy:

Sara Bareilles "She Used to Be Mine" from Waitress

Rascal Flatts "God Bless the Broken Road"

"This is Me" Keala Settle in The Greatest Showman

This is such a fun episode that I cannot wait for you to hear! My friend, Jo Dodd, is an amazing author, mom of four boys, with the yummiest, most wonderful way about her that is cozy and fantastic (not to mention her dreamy British accent!) I loved talking with her about how she became an author of children's book and her latest book which is actually a fantastic, funny and fabulous picture book for Moms "Mama Bear with the F'd Up Hair". So easy and quick to read, but with such a powerful message for all of us! She talks about the corporate world to motherhood women, and how women have a lot of plates to juggle.  Jo talks about the importance of finding your passions and stepping away from the role of super mom. Her newest book launches this week, so check out the link below to purchase your very own copy!

Jo Dodd Bio:

For 25 years, Jo worked in Corporate America in various roles for a Fortune 500 company. On the surface, she appeared confident and put together, but she was completely overwhelmed. She felt like she was failing in every aspect of my life.

In 2020, Jo was furloughed from her job, and it was then that her world began to change. She’d always had a dream of writing children’s books. For the first time, she allowed herself to explore that dream.

Today, Jo is living life by her design, working as a motivational speaker, author & coach, spending more time with her children, and enjoying every moment.

Conversation Highlights:

{03:45} Jo Dodd’s favorite things

{06:04} Inspiration behind Jo Dodd’s books

{13:40} Finding new passions after your children are grown and out of the house

{21:00} Stepping away from Super Mom

{25:08} Learning to be still

{28:40} It’s O.K. to celebrate your accomplishments

Jo's favorite breakfast recipe:

Milk of your choice

Flaxseed

Oats

Catalina Crunch dark chocolate flavor

raspberries

Enjoy!
