Hey there!

Today's podcast episode is like that cozy chat you'd have with a good friend while wrapped up in a comfy blanket, sipping your favorite tea.

Why?

Well, because I'm going to share my raw and unfiltered experiences with you as I dive into the world of menopause and perimenopause.

Now, here's the deal: I'm not a doctor, a therapist, or any kind of medical pro. Nope, I'm just a regular person like you. But you know what I can do? I can talk about it in a way that makes sense, especially when those pesky menopause brain fog moments hit.

Menopause and perimenopause aren't talked about nearly enough, but that's changing, and I'm here to tell you why. We Gen Xers, like myself, weren't exactly handed a manual for this stuff. But now, we're all about sharing what we know and keeping it real.

No sugarcoating here.

Oh, and a funny side note: if you're in the perimenopause/menopause club, you'll relate to how objects seem to disappear into thin air.

We'll explore the joys (itchy ears, anyone?) and not-so-great stuff like brain fog. But here's the thing: with knowledge, even the not-so-great stuff becomes manageable.

Embrace the emotional clarity that comes with this journey. It can be a catalyst for open communication and empathy in your relationships. Talk to your loved ones, friends, and partners about what's going on inside your body and mind. It's a game-changer.

Throughout this episode, I'll share some practical tips, including advocating for your health and practicing self-care. I've also discovered some supplements that helped me along the way, but remember, I'm not a doctor, so consult a healthcare professional.

Join me on this adventure as we navigate the waves of menopause, discovering self-love, authenticity, and a renewed sense of self.

You're not alone, my friends, and this journey is a beautiful opportunity for growth and self-discovery. Let's ride the menopause wave together!

Hello there,

I hope this episode causes you to think and assess your life. I delve into the distinction between living a full life and merely living a filled life. I share some of my self-discovery and reflection, inviting you to explore your own lives through a deeper lens. We are in this together!

Especially in our fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in busyness, but it challenges us to consider whether our lives truly feel full of meaning, purpose, and joy or are merely filled with endless ta-da lists and obligations.

Through personal anecdotes and insights gained from years of coaching and introspection, I'll encourage you to embrace the beauty of both sides—living a full life and experiencing a filled life.

It's important to acknowledge the challenge of finding space for self-reflection and personal growth in a world that seems to move ever-increasingly fast. Emphasizes the importance of celebrating even the smallest achievements and moments in life (Hello, laundry being put away; I'm talking to you!), recognizing that they contribute to the richness of our experiences.

Join me in this engaging exploration of what it truly means to live a full life and discover how to prioritize authenticity and meaning in your own journey.

#businesscoach #intuition #intuitivecoach #personalgrowth #personaldevelopment

Hello Dear,

In this episode, I delve into a word that used to irk me to no end. It was one of those words that seemed overly used, lacking context, and left me wondering why it bothered me so much. But a few weeks back, I made a decision – I decided to explore my aversion to it. 

That word is "authenticity."

Authenticity is deeply intertwined with self-awareness, intuition, and living a life that's in alignment with who we are at our core. But lately, it seems like people throw around the word without understanding its complexity. "Be authentic with me," they say, but when you are, they might reject that version of you in favor of their own idealized perception.

This misuse of authenticity frustrated me, but it also prompted introspection. I've always believed that if something bothers you, you should contribute positively to its resolution. And interestingly, the theme of authenticity kept emerging as I explored different aspects of my coaching model.

Authenticity, to me, is more than just being true to oneself. It involves understanding one's values, actions, and how they align. It's about recognizing the various layers of ourselves and embracing them in different contexts. It's about consistency in being who we are, whether with close friends or strangers.

As I've worked on being more authentic in all areas of my life, I've learned that it's not about being liked by everyone. It's about liking and being proud of who I am. The journey is ongoing, and as I continue to evolve, I welcome the challenges and joys that authenticity brings.

So, if you're questioning who you are, celebrate it! You're embarking on a journey that will last a lifetime. Authenticity is about knowing yourself, facing challenges, and growing through them. It's a process that leads to deeper connections, meaningful experiences, and a more aligned, fulfilling life.

Embrace it.

Here is the website and lovely Accountant I talk about in this week's episode, Carol Leblanc from Love Your Numbers Now: https://www.loveyournumbersnow.com/

Hello, dear soul.

Today, we're diving into a topic that is close to my heart and, I believe, long overdue for discussion: finances.

You see, I didn't have much guidance when it came to money matters while growing up. My parents weren't big communicators about finances, and the topic was simply swept under the rug. My father's health issues led to financial struggles, and I had to figure things out on my own as an adult.

Recently, I had a meaningful conversation with my 17-year-old granddaughter, Kenzie, about colleges and savings. It struck me how important it is to have these conversations and provide insight into the energy of money. I realized that many successful people, including my clients, lack a solid grasp of financial concepts.

In my work, I've discovered that the lack of budgeting or prosperity planning skills is a common challenge. I've developed a system that reframes budgeting as a prosperity plan, so it feels like you're investing in your abundance rather than restricting yourself.

Education and learning are essential, so I encourage you to read books or take classes to develop these skills. Tracking your spending using apps or spreadsheets can help you become more aware of your habits and make conscious decisions.

Remember, you deserve financial freedom and a life free from the pressures of consumerism. Align your energy with abundance, and you'll be amazed at the positive changes it brings.

If you need guidance, I'm here to support you on your journey to financial empowerment.

Let's work together to align your life with prosperity and joy.

This episode is all about taking a break from self-help. 

Now, I know what you might be thinking. Isn't self-help supposed to be a good thing? Well, it can be, but like anything, too much of it can have its downsides.

Let's talk about the signs that you might be overdoing it with self-help. First off, excessive self-analysis. It's great to reflect and learn from our experiences, but constantly overthinking and analyzing every little detail can lead to exhaustion and mental burnout.

Next up, the pursuit of perfectionism. Perfectionism is an illusion, and the idea that we must always strive for perfection can be detrimental to our well-being. Success comes from progress, not perfection.

Remember, you are your own expert. Trust in your own intelligence and intuition. You don't have to be perfect or have it all figured out. Embrace your imperfections and learn from your successes and failures.

So, don't forget to take breaks from self-help pursuits.

Hello there!

In this business-focused edition, I'll be delving into the idea of success and how it varies for each one of us. Success isn't just about financial achievements; it encompasses a harmonious blend of the nonphysical and physical aspects of our lives. We'll explore the significance of ethical and heart-centered business models, as well as the practicality of moneymaking endeavors that contribute positively to our lives and those around us.

Throughout my 23-year journey in this field, my definition of success has evolved. At first, it revolved around meeting financial obligations and supporting my family. But over time, I realized that true success comes from pursuing what we genuinely love and aligning with our soul's purpose. It's about finding joy in our experiences and connections.

Defining success on your own terms is vital, as it guides you on the path that resonates with your values and aspirations. This approach rejects the notion of comparing yourself to others and embracing your unique journey instead. Remember, success can manifest in various forms, and it's essential to stay true to your own vision.

Remember, this is your journey, and defining success is your prerogative. Take a moment to connect with your values and aspirations, and let that serve as your compass towards a fulfilling and joyful life. Let's embrace the journey together!
