How To Rewrite Your Stars

Welcome, this week's guest Traci Bakenhaster!

Traci is the Founder and CEO of Design & Renew Career and Finance Coaching, the Break the Cycle Podcast, and the Design & Renew Tribe a membership community for those looking to break out of the cycles they find themselves in to have lasting change. She uses her diverse background, professional and personal experience, and passion to help others live the life they were called to live. Links below!

Traci and I jump right to the meat of it, we start by having Traci share her story, from having 10 different credit cards (most of them maxed out) at one point and tons of student loan debt to being a successful business coach. Part of her journey was helping young college students figure out what they wanted to learn and where they wanted to go after college. As she was working with these students she found that most of them had no idea what they wanted to do, so she started to address it and grew from there. We address a couple of big issues that aren't usually covered, from how to manage your money to whether to go to college or not. I share my 32nd Vision Board success and we talk about how it relates to choosing what you want to do with your life in little steps.

In this season I'm talking with my guests about their story and how they've been able to "rewrite their stars" in their own life. Then after they've shared their story we transition into talking about vision boards for a little bit and I share one of the successes that I've had. Again, why I'm sharing my successes with you is to show that you can do the same thing, to use a vision board yourself and that you can rewrite your stars in your own life.

Also, if you want to be a guest on my podcast, then be sure to fill out this questionnaire so that we can see about making that a reality. Because there are so many stories of people rewriting their stars, and I want to share them! https://forms.gle/obKbT739sukbrWWE6

Welcome, this week's guest Jason Hewlett!

Jason Hewlett started his career in Las Vegas as a performer and entertainer for a huge company; put together a one-man show built for Vegas, was offered Headlining opportunity to have own show on the Strip; turned that down. Then he went after his career on his own until he damaged his voice; transitioned to Keynote Speaking and now has founded The Promise Institute after having written "The Promise To The One". Links below!

Jason dives right into talking about how he discovered and started to utilize his gift as well as realizing he could use his gift to propel his career. I ask him about how he started out and he also covers how he went from free to paid gigs. Then we transition into talking about how one can find their unique gift and he shares his famous ICM process that explains a simple, yet powerful way to do that. He talks about The Promise and what it means and how it helps us become who we are and who we want to be. I ask him to share another powerful story where The Promise was born and he shares that story of him and his son. We both share a lot of our gifts with each other and with you, doing a little bit of impromptu singing. I then share my 31st Vision Board success and Jason then goes ahead and shares an amazing success he had through the power of intentionality. We wrap up by talking about the Promise to the One and what that means for each of us.

In this season I'm talking with my guests about their story and how they've been able to "rewrite their stars" in their own life. Then after they've shared their story we transition into talking about vision boards for a little bit and I share one of the successes that I've had.

Welcome, this week's guest Stephenie Zamora!

Stephenie Zamora is a life and business coach, the author of Unravel and Awesome Life Tips®, creator of the five-phase Journey Mapping Process, and host of the Tales from the Journey podcast. Her work merges the worlds of personal development, energy healing, intuitive coaching, writing, and mixed media to help individuals rise up and come back from their most challenging chapters. Stephenie guides her clients through the process of reorienting to themselves, their lives, their relationships, and their work in a way that’s fully aligned with who they’ve become in the aftermath of grief, trauma, depression, and big life transitions such as divorce, job loss, relocation, and more. Links below!

Stephenie shares her story of how she was able to discover her path to her purpose and how she's helping others do the same. She talks about some of the stops she's had on her path and we talk about being able to find your path and how it's different for everyone. We also talk a lot about how science has yet to catch up with a lot of the "woo woo" topics that come up frequently in the personal development world; and how the more you learn about anything, the more you understand how it relates to everything. We talk about how 1-star/bad reviews and getting hate mail and how if there's not someone out there who doesn't agree with you, then you're not being 100% authentic in some area of your life. We bring things full circle by going back to purpose and how we all have unique purposes in life. I share my 30th Vision Board success after I was done with Stephenie because I was so engrossed in the conversation that I forgot about it! However, I tie it into what we talked about before.

In this season I'm talking with my guests about their story and how they've been able to "rewrite their stars" in their own life. Then after they've shared their story we transition into talking about vision boards for a little bit and I share one of the successes that I've had.

Rebecca has long been a creator of stories, dictating her first book at three years of age. She is now a full-time author with one novel, a serial web novel, and several modules and supplements for Dungeons and Dragons now published. Links below!

It was fun being able to have my sister on as a guest for this week's episode! Rebecca starts by talking about some of the beliefs that she had about being an author from young to now, and how that affected her decision to become an author professionally; as well as how she was able to overcome some of the limiting beliefs she had held. She also shares about a surgery that she underwent within the past year and how that has affected her in multiple ways. Then a little real-life surprise happens and we tie it right into the discussion as we talk about how to make the things that happen to us affect us for our benefit. I share my 29th Vision Board success which ties right into the topic as we wrap things up.

In this season I'm talking with my guests about their story and how they've been able to "rewrite their stars" in their own life.

She is part woo woo, part sciencey, and part crazy (well, who isn't?) Links below!

Wow! Lisa's story is incredible! A little bit intense, but wow can you learn a lot from her about how to overcome your personal demons. Lisa starts out talking about her childhood and what it was like to live in what she describes as a cult where she had next to no contact with the outside world. Then she goes on to tell the part of her story where she was in love with a man living a triple life. As she tells her story I add a couple of points and ask some questions, but Lisa covered a lot of ground very beautifully. I share the 28th Vision Board Success that I've had and tie it back to the conversation a little bit. We talked a lot about deciding for yourself to overcome your inner demons and about loving yourself despite it all.

In this season I'm talking with my guests about their story and how they've been able to "rewrite their stars" in their own life.

Kyla starts by talking about how she came to understand what her mission is and the story behind how she came to understand it. We then talk about how to find your purpose and mission in your own life and why people become mentors and coaches to help others find those things within themselves. I share the 27th Vision Board Success that I've had in the middle of the episode as I tie it into the conversation and we talk a lot about vision and goals. Then we continue talking about how to actually achieve your goals and how each goal doesn't necessarily have to be reached in order to reach your vision. There were lots of amazing nuggets sprinkled throughout the conversation with Kyla this week!

Welcome, this week's guest Rob Tull!

Rob is the creator of the Path2 Program, which has appeared in 3 international best-selling books. Rob is an author, speaker, success coach, as well as an executive, thought-leader, professor, and single father. Links below!

I jump right into the meat with Rob this week, we start out talking about hitting up the things we want to do in life and viewing them as waypoints instead of end destinations. We also talk about perceptions and expectations that frequently surround us and how they can make it difficult to do what we actually enjoy in life, this is where Rob shares his story. I was honestly really amazed at Rob's story, both how terrible it was and also how he was able to find a way out of the drudgery he was in, even if it cost him a lot. We end up talking about altruism and how to identify the attributes that make up ourselves and how that's what Rob helps people with now so they can actually do what they want to and hit up the waypoints they want to. I share the 26th Vision Board Success that I've had and tie it into the conversation and then we wrap things up.

Welcome, this week's guest Gary Arndt!

In March 2007 Gary sold his house and has been traveling around the world ever since. Since he started traveling, he has probably done and seen more than he had in the rest of his life combined. He lived on the road, traveling non-stop for 9 years. In 2016 he finally “settled down” and got an apartment so that he had a base he could return to between trips. Today he's still traveling for about 3-5 months and visiting upwards of 20 different countries each year. Links below!

Gary starts this week by sharing how he got into travel and the first year of travel that he did. As we talk about travel in general, we also talk about the amazing things that you learn about the world and even about yourself when you travel and a couple of pointers for someone wanting to start traveling. We talk about how you learn a lot more by actually going to a place than by just reading about it. I share the 25th Vision Board Success that I've had and Gary brings up a couple of interesting points related to it. Experiencing the world is part of life and it's worth experiencing. You can also draw a metaphor between traveling to a physical place and traveling to a place within yourself to learn more about yourself; travel is awesome!

In this season I'm talking with my guests about their story and how they've been able to "rewrite their stars" in their own life.

Kate is a transformational business coach. She works with purpose-driven service providers to help them find their zone of genius, find their own path and move from overworking and underpaying themselves to leading their own business and living their one big juicy life. Links below!

Kate starts by sharing her journey through many different fields of work, many "rebellions" against what she thought she should do because of the opinions around her and how she began living her "one big juicy life". We talk a lot about social expectations and being excited about waking up in the morning as well as finding your "why". We have a little tangent about puppies and bring it around to talk about how to forgive yourself and continue forward even when you fail. We talk for a little bit about vision boards and I share the 24th Vision Board Success that I've had as we wrap up. Kate had some amazing insights about how to live the life you want to; because after all, we only get one shot at living our big juicy life!

Big life financial is focused on removing the mystery and misinformation surrounding money and financial strategy so people can live their biggest life. He believes each person has something unique and valuable to contribute to the world, but that most people are never able to express that gift due to fear, doubt, or worry related to money. His mission is to eradicate that fear and fundamentally change the way that people think about and utilize money within the next generation. Links below!

Derick starts out by sharing some of his story of when he moved out on his own and took a commission job because that way if he did well he'd be paid better. Then he goes on to tell more about what he's learned in the years since and more of where he's at now and how he helps people with their money. We go on a tangent about how RPG video games relate to life and give a plug for books and how awesome they are! We talk a lot about vision boards and creation statements as I share the 23rd Vision Board Success that I've had. As we wrap up I ask Derick to share his top tips for someone wanting to learn more about how to take care of their money and he shares his top 2 as we finish up.
