This time of year can seriously leave you feeling hungover...even if you haven't had one sip of alcohol! Last year around this time, this was one of our most popular episodes, so we decided this was the perfect time to release it to you again! 

Right now, there are so many commitments and things to get done "perfectly" that it can drain you physically, mentally, AND emotionally. The key is to be mindful about this...How can you avoid letting this time of year really hinder your progress? 

We've all experienced that feeling of "starting over" in the new year, and we're here with our best tips to help you get back on track in the most simple way. We're sharing some of our clients' limiting beliefs in this episode because we're fairly certain you'll be able to relate. 

What false beliefs are holding you back from really ending the year on a strong note? Listen to this episode and let's work together to find out!

PS: Our Fit + Social 1:1 coaching program will be open for enrollment soon! We're planning to resume consultation calls in January. To learn more and join the waitlist, click HERE!

*Calling all entrepreneurs* 

This week, we're taking you through the launch process that we teach to all of our WOVM (Women on a Virtual Mission) business coaching clients. We'll teach you how to effectively warm up your audience so that they know who you are and what your coaching program is all about, then we'll guide you through the entire 4 week launch...all the way through the final "Man up or Miss Out" phase! 

If you've ever struggled when it comes to getting clients to sign up for your program, then this is the episode for you. We'll go over all the do's and don't's, and you'll leave with a solid plan of action for your next launch! 

To learn about our full Women on a Virtual Mission online business coaching course where we teach all of this in detail, click here. (We'll be opening up a couple more spots in early January!)

Comparison can be a real b*tch. One minute, you can feel totally on the right track! You can be feeling extremely proud of the accomplishments you've made, and you can be in an incredible mood! But then - WHOOSH - just like that, those feelings are gone, replaced by feelings of inadequacy, self-judgement, and even jealousy disguised as admiration. 

It's actually pretty unreal just how quickly that shift can happen, and we're here to give you our best tips to avoid that mental trap. In this episode, we give you several things to STOP doing on the regular, and several things to START doing! You're going to leave this episode with a whole new perspective.

It's time to re-release another one of our most popular episodes! We're talking BOUNDARIES, and why it's absolutely necessary for you to set them! It may feel uncomfortable at first, especially if you're typically someone who spoon-feeds those around you and you normally drop everything you're doing to help someone else. BUT - you need to get real about this...for your own sanity.  Get ready to feel confident saying "NO" to the things that don't serve you, and "YES" to the things that bring you life!

In this episode, we're talking business! Hopefully you're familiar with the dog in the movie Up when he gets frequently distracted by the squirrels...well, unfortunately, that "squirrel syndrome" can also apply to your business!

This episode is for all of our entrepreneurs: Specifically, this goes out to those of you who have so many ideas floating around in your head but you just can’t seem to nail anything down.

We talk about the difference between "pivoting" and "shifting" when it comes to big ideas, and how and when change can break trust with your audience. Our hope with this episode is that we can guide you to narrow down your focus and truly work with the clients you're excited to work with instead of chasing the next shiny (or furrry!) thing.

If you take one big idea away from this episode, let it be this: A Confused Audience Never Buys!

In this episode, we're diving headfirst into guilt and motherhood. We've talked to so many moms who really struggle with mental demons when it comes to putting themselves first. It's easy to fall into the habit and routine of waking up and starting your day for others, but in the long run, everyone benefits the most when Mom starts her day for herself! We're not saying it's going to be easy, but we do give you some tips and takeaways to reframe your thinking. We also explore some pretty interesting data regarding kids' brain development from ages 0-7 that we think will really help you see the big picture and start to make those small daily shifts. 

In this episode, we're keeping it raw and real with Lauren's birth story. She talks you through her "planned" c-section that didn't quite go as planned, and she shares how her first 7 weeks postpartum have gone. We give some tips and advice when it comes to prioritizing you and becoming self-aware when life changes threaten to throw you off your game. 

We also talk about our free "5 Days to Mindful Eating" email series that will help you jumpstart your own nutrition journey. To learn more and opt in, click here! 

Today we're re-releasing one of our most popular episodes! This was our first podcast episode recorded entirely through Zoom. In this episode, we're sharing the audio from a live webinar we hosted when COVID first became an apparent part of our lives this past spring. We talk about how to process changes and create healthy habits even when life is messy and throws some curveballs your way. We hope you listen to this episode and then take immediate action...that is truly what will help you grow!

After the webinar, we talk about our "Basic Needs Bootcamp" online course. If you'd like to learn more about it, you can click HERE! 

In this episode, we're talking straight to our control freaks! And, we can do this, because we've been there too! Releasing the need to control situations can be extremely challenging, but when you're able to truly trust in the universe and follow your intuition and your gut reactions without overthinking and overanalyzing, it will really help you feel less anxious and more aligned with your true path in life. 

We're guiding you through this process in this episode: How to truly listen to your body and lean into what you need in the moment, and how to accept that you can't control everything. True freedom comes when you're able to ask for help and communicate openly and honestly with those closest to you!

Have you ever quit in the middle of something? Talked yourself out of making changes because it "wasn't worth it" or it was "too hard" or "things really weren't all that bad before" ...sound familiar?

Here's some good news: There's actually a psychological reason why this happens, and it's a cycle! It's called the "Emotional Cycle of Change," and when you understand more about each of the 5 stages, you'll also understand how to leverage that knowledge and push through your doubts and fears.

If you've been known to quit on yourself in the past, this might just be the episode you need to hear!
