All That Glitters

Maybe you're born with it... or, maybe not. Confidence is a skill, a habit. It's something that develops through experience and the things on which you focus. Feel as though you're lacking in this area, and could use a little boost? In this episode we discuss how to develop and maintain confidence, which includes taking control over your inner dialogue, tuning out negativity, and controlling your focus, among other tidbits of useful confidence-boosting tips.

And yes, there's a Giveaway! Tune in to find out how you can win a Blender Bomb care package and Optimum Nutrition Goodies.

Have you ever been so involved and focused on a project or an activity that time slips away, and the next thing you know you look up and are surprised to see numerous hours have passed without even realizing it? If so, you have achieved Flow State - the tapping-in to a mental state that allows you to achieve peak performance, engagement, and enjoyment. When you are "in the zone" you are fully immersed in the moment, and are in total control. In this episode we discuss the relatively new concept of Flow State, the best conditions that allow you to achieve this state, and 4 tips on how to more easily tap into the moment.

Let's be clear about one thing... wait, what were we talking about again? Oh, right... FOCUS! Over the last year our daily routines were upended and our attention was pulled in more directions than normal, so you may find that you've been having difficulty lately focusing on your tasks and goals. In this episode we discuss how to regroup, refocus, and get back on track so you are able to once again be productive, and hopefully even enjoy the journey along the way. Remember, where focus goes, energy flows!

Transparency is key in opening the door to truth and enlightenment. In this episode we interview a girl you might know to discuss the latest update on the legal battle that centers around her social media account in the hope it will help other young creatives better navigate their journey on the way to fulfilling their dreams.

We all want to eat healthier, but we don't always take the time to do so - and it can be hard to figure out exactly which foods are really best to incorporate into our diet. What's even harder? Starting a business in today's extremely crowded and competitive health food space.

In this episode we speak with Helen Hall, the CEO of Blender Bombs and the 80x20 Market, whose first product exploded onto the food scene in 2017. After crash and fad diets failed to keep the weight off, Helen created Blender Bombs as an easier way to add more healthy, plant-based foods to her diet. A Personal Trainer at the time, her clients loved them too, and before she knew it, a company was born. We discuss how she started the company, the steps she's taking to grow the business, what it's like working side-by-side with her fiancé (oh, and throwing planning a wedding into the mix), and what it takes overall to be an entrepreneur in the difficult-to-navigate, razor-thin profit margin food industry.

Giveaway Alert! Learn how you can win a Bomb Box of Goodies, AND how you can get 20% off your first order of Blender Bombs products!

2020 made us feel helpless in so many ways.

This past year has forced us to be resilient. It has forced us to adapt. It has forced us to figure out ways to stand up and take charge of situations that appeared, at first, to be totally out of our control.

And for that growth, that new-found strength, we are thankful. And so as we look to 2021, we choose to use our new-found resilience to not only survive, but to thrive. In this episode we discuss what the concept of resolutions means to us, the importance of coordinating resolutions with a purpose, and taking the positives of what we've learned over the past year into 2021.

Here's to a Happy New Year for All!

2020 has been rough for so many people, and unfortunately, it has been for us as well. We are so appreciative of all of the support we've received from our listeners, fans, and followers, and we know that we'll get through this ordeal - together. Although our emotions are raw right now and we are still working through everything, we are very optimistic and know there are brighter days ahead. We look forward to reconnecting with all of you on Instagram at @allthatglittersonthegram and on Facebook - All That Glitters Podcast.

Much love and gratitude to all of you out there listening. You mean more to us that you might ever realize - "Your All That Glitters Podcast Hosts"

A holiday season jam-packed with joyful outings with friends and family unfortunately isn't in the cards this year, so we thought it would be a good time to revisit a more carefree time (i.e. pre-mask days) so we could share a more nuanced story of our engagement! Picture this... January 2019 - Conrad covertly reaches out to Hearts On Fire to start the process of designing a custom ring for "A Girl You Might Know" From Conrad asking "A Girl You Might Know" dad permission, to the memorable trip to St. John where a videographer was staying in the same house without "A Girl You Might Know" even knowing - this is the story of our engagement :-)
