"The Leader Who Had No Title" by Robin Sharma is the book of the month for April!  It is a quick and easy read with a lot of great inspiration.  I just love how we really don't need to wait for a title to be a leader.  We can build ourselves, and relationships, and serve those around us at whatever stage of life/career we are in!

We all have challenging experiences in our lives.  I believe they come to us to make us into the person we are meant to be for ourselves and for the world.  Sometimes in those experiences we become the victim, the thing is, is we don't have to stay the victim forever.  We have the power to change our lives and move forward with the new found knowledge to better the world.

Hello there!  Have you ever felt jealous toward someone or a situation?  I have many times.  Instead of letting that negative feeling put me in a bad mood or let that fester up more frustration I sat with it, and analyzed why I was having those feelings.  Sometimes it was just pure envy, and I needed to remove myself from that, but more often than not, I was feeling jealous because my heart was telling me I needed to pursue something that I wasn't.  Once I start taking consistent action towards things I once felt jealous about, I wasn't jealous anymore.  Hear more of my thoughts in the short podcast episode!

Do you think being jealous can be a good thing?

Brandie Brown has been teaching Zumba and Yoga for years!  This is her journey and tips and advice on going for your dreams, working through your fears and just going for it! 

Chelsea met Brandie when she lived in Centerville, Iowa when shestarted going to her classes!  This interview is very special to her because Brandie is the FIRST interview she ever recorded for Confidence in Business.  Brandie is such a sweet, kind, genuine person and is such an inspiration and a role model.  She is someone to look to for confidence in just going for it, and realizing that you can figure things out along the way.

This episode is the most raw one to date!  I had a baby 3 weeks ago, and recorded this late and night with babies sleeping, but I'm okay with it! 

This book talks about how it is okay to be vulnerable, how to work towards authenticity, and creating a wholehearted life. 

I would love to know how you are being brave with your life and how are choosing to be authentic.

Have you found yourself not accomplishing anything or pursuing something because you feel it never will be perfect?  I'm here to tell you to do your best, but DONE is always better than perfect.  You have an important work to give the world, and it's okay that it is not perfect.  We need what you have to offer no matter whether it is perfect or not (which perfect doesn't exist, so do your best and move on).
