Today we are hearing Robyn's story. She became a mom at a young age but the entrepreneurial spirit was always a part of her so she kept going towards her dreams. We talk about the how to receive support (that can be hard, especially for women and mothers), and keeping in mind that the next generation of girls are watching us as motivation to keep going.

I'm chatting with Brand Astrologist Leslie Tagorda about using our star power, in particular your sun, moon, and rising signs, to create a bold and magnetic business.

Chatting with Leslie gave me lots of clarity on who I am meant to serve and how to reach them through my messaging and she offers you tips and suggestions for leveraging your star power to do that too.

I've got some stuff to tell you.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Did that sound like "we need to talk?" LOL I promise it's actually good news!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The podcast is not only my fav thing that I do (and yours too! from the looks of it) but it also encompasses all of what I have to offer and love to teach.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I've been putting myself in a box.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The experts out there say "do one thing and serve one kind of person".⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But that's not me. I'm multifaceted and I want to help more than one kind of person. And if you know me, you know that once I feel like I'm in a box, I will get a fiery passion to burn it down (I didn't do well in retail LOL)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But I also can't weight all of my many facets equally, so I am reprioritizing my focus. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'm making some changes to do business MY way and in turn serve MORE of you:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. My main channel of content creation will be the podcast with new episodes once a week.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. The podcast is not just for mompreneurs, and you'll notice in future episodes that we are covering topics of wellness, fulfillment, and confidence with a less niched down lens.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 3. I'm available for 2 kinds of coaching: mompreneur confidence coaching at vibrantmompreneurs.com and body confidence coaching at bodyconfidentcoaching.co , with most of my energy being channeled into body confidence.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 4. The podcast has its own website now at becomingvibrantpodcast.com⠀⠀

Today we are talking about self-care and support for stepmoms! It's a topic I hadn't even thought about before, and that's part of the issue here. Stepmoms don't get nearly enough support. When I came across our guest and learned about what she does, I was excited because this work is so needed.

I talk a lot about self-care for mamas on the podcast, with guests and just me, but I never thought about how stepmoms have a unique set of challenges they face and need support. Whether you are a stepmom or your kids have a stepmom or you know a stepmom, this episode is for you.

This is a Monday Motivational Mini. I create these MMM episodes to give you the support you need from a confidence coach (like me!) right in your pocket in less than 10 minutes for a quick pep talk to get you back on your feet.

This one is for when you are feeling nervous about going live. Here's what I want you to know most of all: EVERYONE GETS NERVOUS. It does not mean that you are not good enough or that you are going to mess it up. Nervousness is a normal human feeling. Hit play on this episode to get you out of panic mode and into the best energy for showing up live.

This episode is for you if you've experience infant loss, preterm birth, miscarriage, birth trauma, or any difficulty in pregnancy, birth, or postpartum. It's also for you if you are currently pregnant or trying to conceive and you're experiencing high stress.

It's also such a good one if you're a human. This episode completely changed the way I understand stress and I use the information I learned from our guest all the time. The way most of us understand stress is just not scientifically accurate and it leads to us struggling to reduce stress in an effective way.

Our guest today is Parijat Deshpande. She is in the same business coaching group that I'm in, and I had seen her posts about her work and thought to myself "thank god she's out there doing this work, it's so needed!"— so of course I had to have her on the podcast!

This is a Monday Motivational Mini. I create these MMM episodes to give you the support you need from a confidence coach (like me!) right in your pocket in less than 10 minutes for a quick pep talk to get you back on your feet.

This one is for when you are feeling burnt out. I have definitely been there and I know how brutal it can be. In this episode, I give you 3 things to dig deeper into so you can get your energy back.

This episode is the first of a new series I'm doing on the Becoming Vibrant podcast. We're having guests on, not as experts in their field who give us tips and information, but as fellow mompreneurs with a story to tell.

Here's why: as a mompreneur myself, I've experienced a hell of a journey to get to where I am. The thing is, I used to think it was just me, and that really struggling meant I wasn't cut out for this.

This changed for me when I joined the business coaching group that I'm in that is around 1700 women entrepreneurs. In that group, women were posting their stories and their struggles openly and vulnerably and I started to feel so much less alone as I read through them. I realized that the journey can sometimes be really hard, but we can still build something amazing.

Today, we're hearing Alison's story. And I'll tell you upfront that she had me crying more than once. My younger sister was born with special needs and this episode hit me right in the heart. Alison is the mama to a little boy named Carter who has special needs. She is also the creator of a program that helps students connect with others who might be different than themselves. She also helps empower nonprofits to make the world a better place. She's an amazing badass mompreneur making a difference and I'm honoured to share her story with you.
