#32: My friend Katie Rollins in the epitome of what it means (to me) to be our most aligned, authentic selves. She knows what it means to "put in the work" on yourself in order to live a life you're proud of and happy in, all while keeping a fresh and real perspective about this one wild life we each get.

She is uber successful in her various online businesses, yet through it all, she prioritizes the "unsexy" work of boundaries, mindset, and healing that it takes to be unapologetically herself. She gives some great tangible advice throughout this conversation and is relatable and hilarious while doing it!

Here are some of the ways Katie mentions that you can get in her world and work alongside her:

#31: The conversations surrounding pivoting, making changes, or what to do when something no longer serves you has been a hot one, so I keep it rolling here today!

Here are some previous episodes that I mention in today's talk:

Episode 29: My upcoming career changes

#30: My friend Krystal and I are both approaching phases of change in our lives, most notably with our work, so we wanted to talk about it with all of you. We both are multi-faceted women who are involved in multiple things as hobbies, careers, and sources of income. Today we wanted to normalize the need to make changes in our lives, to edit or modify what isn't working for us, to make decisions based on logistics and pleasure, and that it's ok to be in a place of unknown while learning about ourselves and figuring out what's next.

If any of this sounds like you, then you are definitely going to want to listen in!

#27: Sometimes in life, we need reminders and permission to do the things we know our soul is craving, yet we have a hard time acknowledging and listening to. Even as a Therapist/ Coach, I'm here to tell you it's ok to not engage in personal development activities every. single. day. Sometimes the most nourishing and rewarding things we can give ourselves is the freedom to rest, be lazy, laugh, play, and seek joy over productivity. Also, being curious to ask ourselves questions over self-criticism, is much more likely to help you tune in to your intuition, wants, and needs SO much more effectively!
