It is such a joy to be back with you after a month's hiatus. This month, I'm going to dare to do something a little different—my vision is to take you through the Shine Retreat by recording my thoughts during the retreat. Think of it as an "audio journal" of my journey through a new and exciting challenge. I am excited to have you guys on this journey with me.

Hello, everyone! August has been a month full of Transition and Change. Oftentimes, we go through transitions with our eyes outward. It is so easy in these vulnerable seasons to tend to compare ourselves to others. The comparison is a dangerous beast, and it often leads to despair. So how can we combat that tendency to compare and despair?

Welcome to another week of the Her Life Unscripted podcast. We are a community of women doing amazing things to show up and change the world. This month has been all about transition and change for Ana, and this week was no exception! During times of rapid change, it is easy to feel beaten and broken down. How can we show up when we feel broken? From where can we draw our strength?

Welcome back, everyone! August is a month that brings forth change and transition, for better or for worse. Moms, in particular, know this feeling well, because August means back to school, back to routine, and back into the same patterns that might have left you feeling "stuck" in the past. Ana learned this week through life's very unscripted moments that feeling "stuck" really sucks, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a negative thing.

Feeling out of control is just that, a feeling. The beauty of our emotions is that they inform us about our environment. Life has slowed you down and forced you to pause, so use that time! It is in those moments of stillness that we can begin to understand our feelings.

During this month of August, we are doing a series on choice, transition, and change. This topic is, as always, personally relevant to Anna and her current life situation. Most people tend to show up in the world in a way that is pulled together, with the right answer and a positive attitude, but Anna reminds you that this podcast is really about the exact opposite. It's about showing up just as you are, raw, unfiltered and unscripted. Listen in to find out more.

Anna would love to say that she always shows up in a composed manner, however, the truth of it is that she can't. When she's in the throes of trying to figure something out, she has to show up being honest and transparent, because that's the whole point of this project. It is really all about coming together and owning the parts of yourself that are hurting and fragmented and being able to put words to that and to know that you're not alone. When things happen to you, that are totally out of our control, you have to go through a period of putting words to expressing quite how bad it really is.

With the Shine Retreat fast approaching, and the promise of kiddos starting school in the fall, Anna realizes that seasons of transition and change are about to begin. It can be startling to know that life might be passing you by. Instead of facing change and transition, we tend to let it overcome and overwhelm us. When life seems to hand us more than we can manage, do we really have a choice to thrive?

Anna's conclusion? A resounding YES! We can make ourselves open to change and open to the lessons that life's transitions can teach us. Is this change a positive one, or a negative one. Perhaps it's all about how you let it define you. Let's face it: you might be in a place right now you never wanted to be. Instead of feeling despair, be grateful to know that you have been presented with a choice to live wholeheartedly. Join Anna this week as she dives into a new month of embracing change and triumphing over transition!

As we wrap up our session of Freedom, it is time to settle ourselves in for some Real Talk. This week, Anna tackles the very real weight of comparison that seems to sneak in unnoticed. Anna realized that we learn to compare. It's not an innate reaction. Now is our chance to learn how to stop comparing, or at least lessen its sting.

In the spirit of the 4th of July, this month on Her Life Unscripted is all about Freedom. This week, Ana dives deep into what it means to be freed from expectations. Yes, those creeping, uninvited guests who wrinkle relationships and ruin plans. Life is full of unmet expectations, whether that's for a dreamy office space, your idea of a perfect vacation, or even what you expect from a relationship. During this season of celebration, it is tempting to be let down when our expectations aren't met. So how do we combat that?

How often have you planned something, only to have your plans thwarted by some unforeseen occurrence? Anna points out that we're constantly learning lessons and the universe is constantly showing us that we're really not in control. This can be a hard lesson for some people. It was really hard for Anna when she found out that she has to move her office from the place that she's been really happy and where she managed to create the kind of sanctuary that makes both her and her clients feel safe and held. Through this, she discovered, contrary to what she used to think, that she really does not enjoy the change in her life. Yet, change is inevitable. Anna finds it almost incredible to see how the topics that she chooses for each month really tend to align with what's going on in her life. So, still talking about freedom, in the month of July, Anna is finding freedom from the expectation that she's going to change. Listen in to find out what she has to say.
