      • 073: How to Overcome Fear of Rejection

        Welcome back to another heart-to-heart episode of Do Life Big! Today, I'm getting real about something that's probably touched all of us at some point – the fear of rejection.

        🤔 Have you ever stopped to wonder why we carry this fear like an invisible weight? Well, I've been coaching for a good while now, and let me tell you, it's one of those things that can really hold us back.

        So, in today's Do Life Big Podcast episode, I went deep into the layers of this fear.

        Have you ever thought about the connection between rejection and acceptance?🤷‍♀️ Rejection is the opposite of acceptance, and at the end of the day, that's what we're all chasing. I even shared a bit of my own journey, a time when the fear of rejection made me compromise who I truly was just to fit in and be accepted.

        But here's the thing – why do we crave acceptance so much? 🤔

        It all boils down to not fully embracing and loving ourselves. We took a journey from a carefree childhood to the conditioned selves we've become, shaped by societal expectations and probably a lot of parental influence. The conflict arises because our true selves resist accepting what our conditioned selves have turned into.

        🌟 Now, understanding all this is one thing, but what do we do about it?

        Take a deep breath; change isn't an overnight gig. I encouraged you to be on a journey of self-discovery, to reconnect with the things that used to light up your world. It's about bridging the gap between the carefree kid you once were and the grown-up you've become.

        And hey, this isn't a quick fix; it's a lifelong commitment to growth. I urged you to integrate joy and fun back into your life. 

        💖 Remember, the love and acceptance you're searching for from others? Turns out, that's what you truly want from yourself. So, put on your adventure hat, and let's tackle this fear together!

            • 071: What Childhood Challenges Taught Me? (My Personal Journey)

              Happy New Year! 🥳

              Today, I'm getting real about something we don't talk about enough – the challenges we faced as kids and how they shaped who we are today.

              Have you ever seen someone successful and thought, "They've always had it easy"? We forget the hurdles they overcame.

              So, let me peel back the layers of my past.

              Surprise! I wasn't always the loud, confident person you know. As a kid, I was shy, got picked on, and battled self-doubt.

              And it took me 30 years to realize I needed to work on myself!!! 😅

              The secret sauce? I embraced all the discomfort and struggles I had! I was like a butterfly breaking free from its cocoon. 🦋

              In today's Do Life Big Podcast episode, I spill the tea on how I raised the bar for my friendships, upgraded my standards, and learned not everyone needs to like me. It's about being me and attracting the right vibes.

              Personal growth turned me into a better mom, wife, friend, and entrepreneur. And guess what? The journey never ends. I roll with personal development, jam to inspiring content, and stay with those who uplift me. 🚀

              Always remember these things:

              • Am I listening to things that make my mind better and make me feel good? 🎧
              • What am I reading? Am I reading things that help me grow and work through areas I need to improve? 📚
              • Am I watching things that are positive, inspiring, and give me that feel-good feeling? 📺
              • Who am I surrounding myself with? What are those conversations like? How do I feel after leaving those situations? 🤔
              • Your past isn't a burden; it's a gift. So, what challenges are you still working to overcome?💪

                • 070: A Simple Life Hack for Everyday Joy

                  Happy Holidays, wonderful souls! 🌟

                  In today's episode of Do Life Big, I dove into a game-changer – a simple life hack for infusing everyday joy into our lives.

                  Ever find yourself overwhelmed, stressed, or just caught up in a wave of negative emotions? I get it; we're all human, and life's roller coaster can be a lot to handle. 🎢

                  In this episode, I spilled the beans on a simple life hack I learned from one of my mentors that transformed the way I navigate those tough moments.

                  🔍 Picture this: you're feeling stressed, and I challenged you to ask yourself, "What was the thought that caused me to feel this way?"

                  It's all about pinpointing those negative thoughts and, here's the kicker, replacing the 'I have to' with either 'I get to' or 'I choose to.' 🔄

                  📝 Here's a quick rundown of what I covered:

                  • "I have to create all this content" becomes "I get to create all this content."
                  • "I have to plan my project today" transforms into "I get to plan my project today."
                  • "I have to prep all my meals" turns into "I get to prep all my meals."
                  • It may seem small, but trust me, this shift in perspective, combined with a deep breath after each statement, is a total game-changer. ✨

                    The result? A calmer, more peaceful you, ready to take on the world with a positive mindset.

                    Don't forget to check in on yourself – you deserve that moment of self-care. 🌈

                    • 069: Two Tips to Overcome Fear and Pursue Your Breakthrough Year

                      Hey... How's your day?  ☕

                      Me... I am fueled today by a massive cup of Starbucks coffee – trust me, I need it after my wild birthday weekend with my dog's unexpected escapade. But hey, I'm here with loads of energy and a story to share. 🎉

                      In today's Do Life Big Podcast episode, I'm gonna dive deep into the power of beliefs and the stories we tell ourselves. As we approach the end of the year, it's not just about reflecting but also casting our vision for 2024. No wishy-washy words, no vague hopes – we're talking intentional, confident choices. 🚀

                      Join me on this journey as we explore what you're choosing to believe and why it matters. I'm even running a free five-day vision (starting today!) and goal-setting group, so check it out if you want to join the party! kathireuter.com/goals

                      Now, let me share two powerful tips that emerged from my own breakthrough experience:

                      1. Commitment and Responsibility: I declared my words for 2024 – commitment, responsibility, and playing full out. It's about owning my vision, showing up messy, and taking charge of my journey. 💪

                      2. Embrace Imperfection: I committed to showing up messy until I found success. No fear of imperfections or setbacks – just learning, growing, and persisting. It's time to ditch those BS stories that hold us back! 🚫

                      Speaking of breakthroughs, I'll even spill the details of my own vision for 2024, so buckle up! We all have fears, but the choice is ours – focus on the vision or get lost in those limiting stories.

                      Remember, you are meant for greatness, and it starts with what you choose to believe. Join me in looking within, acknowledging what's held you back, and painting your life's canvas with belief, passion, and perseverance. 🔥

                      • 068: Three Lessons from Taylor Swift's Person of the Year Interview

                        Just touched down from the most epic business event EVER – seriously, the best thing I've done in a decade! 🤩 And guess what? I wasn't flying solo! Over 900 entrepreneurs from every corner of the globe joined the fun.

                        Now, hold on tight... because today's Do Life Big Podcast episode is all about our queen, Taylor Swift! 💗

                        Can you believe it? Mind blown! 🤯

                        Any Swifties in the house? Or moms with Swiftie daughters? 🤭

                        So, I stumbled upon this interview where Taylor dropped some major wisdom bombs after snagging Person of the Year. 🏆 And let me tell you, the lessons are legit! But I'm not holding back – here are the TOP THREE takeaways:

                        • Lesson #1: Be a storyteller.📚 Taylor's a pro at this. She spills the beans on her lows, not just the highs. Embrace your story, especially the messy parts. Your lows and struggles are relatable and powerful – they connect you with others, building trust, and inspiring them. Remember, your mess is your message. ✨
                        • Lesson #2: Embrace the lows. Taylor says you gotta go through the downs to reach the ups. It's like a rollercoaster🎢 – can't enjoy the thrill without the crazy drops. So, don't let setbacks define your journey. Instead, view them as stepping stones to growth. Your breakthrough often follows the breakdown.
                        • Lesson #3: Celebrate the journey. 🎉 We often forget to be grateful for where we are right now. Yeah, we dream about the future but take a sec to pat yourself on the back. You're on your own unique journey, and even in your current state, you're someone's inspiration.
                        • There you have it – three rad lessons from Taylor Swift that you can totally rock in your life.

                          If you vibed with this chat, don't miss out on my free five-day vision goal-setting group starting Monday, December 18. We're gearing up for a killer 2024, and I want you on board.

                          • 067: How To Stop Feeling Overwhelmed

                            As we're cruising towards the end of the year and diving headfirst into the holiday madness, it's like life just cranks up the chaos, right? 

                            Tech buzzing, responsibilities piling up, and that to-do list? Never seems to end. But here's the deal – it's not just messing with your head; it's doing a number on your body too. 😅

                            So, I spilled the beans on this latest Do Life Big Podcast episode. I spilled about my own journey figuring out that overwhelm isn't some external villain but more like our own thought drama playing on repeat. It's all about the stories we cook up in our minds. 🧠

                            And guess what? I also threw in some practical strategies to shake off that overwhelm:

                            🌬️ Breathe More: Seriously, take a few minutes each day to just focus on breathing. Give yourself a mini vacay, like two to three minutes, to kick back and just breathe.

                            🎯 One Thing at a Time: Master the art of zeroing in on one task at a time. Sort that to-do list and hit up one thing at a time for some A+ time management.

                            💼 Boss Decision-Making: Organize your to-do list by urgency. Tackle those must-do tasks today or in the next couple of days. Level up your prioritizing and decision-making game.

                            🚫 No More Juggling: Practice saying "No" to stuff that doesn't match your priorities. Don't drown in too many commitments – it's cool to keep it real and not take on the world.

                            😊 Do What Makes You Happy: Find stuff that brings you joy and sneak it into your day. Could be a hobby, a sport, or anything that gives your brain a breather.

                            📝 Write It Down: Instead of juggling everything in your noggin, jot down all the stressors. Helps you get those thoughts out, spot patterns, and take charge of the stress game.

                            • 066: Mastering 6 Life-Changing Decisions

                              Another week, new conversation you don't want to miss!

                              In today's Do Life Big Podcast episode, I'll dive into some of life's most pivotal decisions, and why mastering them is crucial. So, grab a cozy spot, and let's get into it!

                              🌟 Step 1: Who do you surround yourself with? Ever noticed how your vibe syncs with those you walk with? It's not just pace; your heart and breath align too. 

                              🌎 Step 2: Where do you live?  Is your current city a catalyst for growth? I made a life-altering move from Massachusetts to Florida, and it revolutionized everything. Ask yourself, is your environment propelling you toward your best self?

                              💑 Step 3: Big M -- Marriage. It's YOUR life; who you marry matters. Don't settle; find someone who fuels your growth. Nick and I have been married for 17 years because we're a team, supporting each other's journeys. What kind of partner do you envision?

                              💰 Step 4: Money Matters.  Whether your passion is your paycheck or they're separate entities, choose wisely. Most divorces stem from money issues; sync up with your partner on financial goals. Are you doing something you love for a living?

                              👤 Step 5: Who do you want to be?  Define your values and character traits. Reflect on what you want people to say about you when you're gone. It's not about achievements; it's about your essence. Write it down; let it guide you every day.

                              🌟 Step 6: Dedicate Your Life.  What's your life's purpose? Don't just go through the motions – dedicate yourself to something meaningful. Whether it's family, business, or a cause, live with intention.

                               

                              There you have it, my friends – the six monumental decisions that shape your destiny.

                              I hope this episode resonated with you as much as it did for me. I appreciate each one of you. Until next time, keep doing life big!
