Do Life Big

Did you know: I used to be a MAJOR people pleaser for like, the first 30 years of my life? Yup, it's true!

I would make so many decisions based on what others expected of me (or even what I assumed they expected!)

And I remember one day, almost 10 years ago when I first started my health & fitness business, coming face to face with how people pleasing shows up: 

I had decided to start that business for just one reason: to continue stay home with my little kids who were 3 years old and 18 months at the time. 

And when these comments happened, as painful as it was to hear people who supposedly care about me, downplay what I wanted to do; I knew I had to make a choice.

For me, the choice was easy.

And since then, I have gained so much personal power. I make decisions now based on what I want to do, and not what others expect of me. And that feels freakin' AWESOME! ❤

In today's podcast, I talk all about my own story but I also give you my TOP 8 actionable tips you can use RIGHT NOW in your own life to stop people-pleasing!

Also, wanted to send a BIG THANKS to DD Daily for her review on iTunes. She says:

Have you ever had that voice in your head that's thought, "Why does it seem so effortless for everyone else?" 

Especially when faced with a challenge, so many of us (without even knowing it!!) give those challenges or setbacks a meaning about what is possible for us. 

Whelp, I've got an AWESOME episode for you today!

You will learn that when you create is a negative meaning about a situation, then it becomes impossible to grow or get past it.

The meaning becomes a ❌ ROADBLOCK. 

You probably already know this though, right?

For example, let's say you are trying to eat healthier and make better choices with your meals, but then you go to a friends birthday party and have a few Captain & Cokes 🍸, a slice of cake 🍰 , and some eggrolls 🥢. 

You've blown it for the night! 😱

So what happens next? You can interpret that a few different ways. 

✔ You can choose to make it mean you failed, and just let this totally derail you from your goals. You knew you didn't have the willpower to avoid the food, and this just reinforced it. I'm destined to fail! 

✔ OR, you can choose to just isolate the story to that day. Hey, it was a birthday party, I ate and drank more than i planned, but today is a new day and I'm going to move forward from here. It's about progress, not perfection. I'm not perfect, but I am doing my best, and just because I overindulged doesn't make ME a failure! 

Which story, about the same situation,  is going to move you in a positive direction? 

Today's episode dives into this with lots of examples and tips. High performers know how to REFRAME situations so they can GROW from it, instead of shrink!

I know this episode is going to set off some light bulbs for you! 

Also, wanted to send a BIG THANKS to Lindsal196 for her review on iTunes. She says:

Most struggling entrepreneurs make the mistake of thinking that all they have do is work more, and work harder, to finally hit that six-figure success in their business they are dreaming of.

What they don't realize is that all the hard work in the world won't make up for a belief that literally puts a CAP on what is possible for them! 

Over the past nearly 9 years, I've worked with thousands of entrepreneurs, helping them bust through lifting beliefs so they can finally achieve the success they dream about. 

Today's podcast is a SUPER POWERFUL one because I share the TOP 5 most common limiting beliefs that I hear from my students all.the.time. 

If you are anything like my students, you may have thought some of these yourself! 

There's more though! I don't just share the limiting thought, I also give you a reframe - a new thought you can "substitute in" for the limiting belief that will  actually empower you and SMASH that invisible ceiling that is keeping you stuck! 

BUT WAIT! There's More! 😂

I've also thrown together a FREE resource for you - a downloadable PDF called, "Think This, Not That". 

This quick sheet will give you even more common limiting beliefs - 19 in total - that I hear all the time, PLUS a blank template where you can list out some of your own limiting beliefs and then reframe them into something that will actually help you get your business out of a rut and back into growth mode! 

So click on over below and download it right now:

Imagine if every time you had a fear that made you freeze like a deer in the headlights, you knew how to push through that fear and do what you know you SHOULD do? 

How much would your life change? How FAST could you accelerate your success if you just wrote that email, called that person, or made that post on social media? 

Last week, I attended a virtual 3-day business event .... and it was really amazing. There were almost 300 people on it live and I learned SO much I can't wait to put into action this year!

At one point though, the Zoom training suddenly broke into small group workshops with 5 - 6 other people.

Up to this point, I was happily sitting on my computer in my yoga pants with my earbuds in, taking notes, ya know, anonymously.

But now I was going to be thrown into a virtual room, camera ON, with strangers, to talk about successes in our business, with no notice at all! 

I panicked. 

I quit zoom and shut the lid to the laptop. It happened so fast, I didn't even know I had done it! A complete fight or flight response 😏

After a few seconds, I gathered my thoughts, and I knew what I had to do.

I took a deep breath. 🧘‍♀️

I opened the laptop. And I joined the discussion. 

Here's the thing - when you FEAR something, it's a sign it's something you should LEAN INTO. 

Fear can be conquered, and your next-level in your life is always on the other side of that fear. 

So go ahead and take a listen now!

If you have set goals for 2023 or more importantly, if you DIDN'T set goals for 2023 because you already figured you wouldn't hit them anyway, then this episode is a MUST-LISTEN! (and it's only 15 minutes! 🕝) 

In today's episode, I talk about my own experience missing goals in my own business. If you have ever missed a goal yourself, then you can probably relate! It felt so bad, and I created a negative meaning about my own capabilities because of it, that I completely skipped setting a goal the following year.

And it took me YEARS to come out of that negative cycle, because I didn't even know I was in it!

But what if YOU could catch and change this belief, now? Then you don't have to wait for years, like I did. You can take the shortcut! 

Seriously -- your goals are too important to let them just linger. I want you to DO LIFE BIG and that means going after your goals - and it doesn't matter if you fell short on them before!

In today's podcast, we are going to tackle HAPPINESS!

So many of us are stressed out and constantly filling our heads with worry, doubt, and fear. We  may have a hard time just living in the present moment! 

If that's how you feel, then this episode is for you! I give you three quick tips you can use right now to live more in the moment! 

First, I teach you how to become aware that you are the one putting the negative thoughts into your mind in the first place. 

Secondly, I help you get the negative thoughts out of your head and (literally) BURN 🔥 them.

Finally, I give you some strategies to help you make things more simple, instead of more complex. One of the things I hear from my students all the time when the lightbulb goes off is that it was so much simpler than they expected... they just had to get out of their own way!

Happiness and joy doesn't have to be this elusive thing "for other people". Listen in to today's episode and make sure to DM me @katherinereuter after you put these tips into action!

Have you ever felt like you just can't stay on top of all the things? If you are anything like me, then you have definitely felt this way! 

I LOVE the holiday season ... but it's also a time of so many things happening at once! For me, it's not just Christmas and New Year's - but also the season of both of my parent's birthday and my daughter's birthday. School events, decorating, getting together with friends, it's like non-stop! 

Does this already make you feel overwhelmed? 🤪

🎙In This week's podcast I talk about how it's OK to slow down sometimes to shift focus in different seasons of your life, and how it's also OK to say "no" to certain things!

For example, I used to bake these amazing Christmas cookies that were delicious, but they would take the entire day to make! So now I make a simple recipe that still gives me enough time to sit with my husband and kids and watch a holiday movie! 

Remember - slowing down does NOT make you lazy, or a slacker! There is always time to speed up again!

 Are you ready to finally make the new year, YOUR year? The year you stop giving yourself excuses and start giving yourself the results you've been wanting?

🎙In This week's podcast I talk about manifesting YOUR best year ever in 2023! 

Whatever you have been focusing on in your life, that is what you are going to get more of. So if you are filling you mind with self-doubt and limiting beliefs, then you will produce more self-doubt and build more limitations! 

But if you become aware of this and learn to master your inner dialogue, then you can use that power to help create a positive focus in your life and put your attention on things going RIGHT!

Have you ever felt like you wanted to create something in your life so badly but it's just not happening? 

A lot of times we THINK that we are focusing on that thing that we REALLY want, but without even realizing it we are focusing on what we DON'T want. And a lot of times, we don't even know we are doing this! 

An example of this is if you want to go on a vacation with your family but you don't currently have the money in the bank. You know you really want to go on this vacation, but you are subconsciously focused on the fact that the money for this trip doesn't exist. You subconsciously have on repeat, "I can't afford this." or "I am broke."

What happens here then is that you are focused on the lack of resources to make this vacation happen - and when this happens, you actually attract MORE lack into your life! 

Instead, shift your focus on what you CAN DO to earn more money, or how you can save more money. Focus on the strategies to solve the situation, and then see it happening in the future vs putting your attention and focus on the problem! 

In this week's podcast, I talk all about this concept - including my dad's battle with Leukemia and how his focus and attention was one of the major factors in his getting through his war with cancer!

Have you ever really built something up in your mind, and then when things don't go as planned, you get bummed out, stressed, or maybe even a little angry? 

Last week, I went on a cruise with my family, and boy do I have some GREAT stories to share with you about how things went! 

Without giving away too much, in just the first 45 minutes of getting on the ship my 3 year old:

😵 Had a meltdown getting his photo taken for his boarding pass
🌊 Threw his blanky over the balcony railing, 
🤮 Vomited all over the floor in our cabin

As you can imagine, this did not start Day #1 of our "relaxing family cruise" 😆 off the way I had imagined it!

🎙In this week's podcast, I talk all about what happens when you have missed expectations, and ways to deal with those missed expectations! 

Because the thing is, life will NEVER go as you have it planned, but that's also OK! There are always things to be thankful and grateful for, even when things go a little (or a LOT) sideways!
