Coming Clean : Episode 26 Building A Personal Brand 101

In this episode, I discuss the concept of building a personal brand, what I’ve learned from others and from my experiences. I break this info down into these 4 layers:

Visual - What does your online presence look and feel like?

Message - What message are you trying to convey and why?

Connection - How can you develop a real connection with your audience?

Growth - How can you reach more people?

Questions -

Q: Could you tell me how you controlled yourself from picking up the junk food and cracked down on yourself? I really struggle with that because I have severe anxiety and find myself stress eating a lot! - Stephanie

Q: Was wondering if you can touch on how we can pick ourselves up from such a dark place? Like us feeling stuck in what we are doing. I try to say to myself, "it could always be worse", but often focus on that specific thing that is weighing me down. - Natascha

Q: I know from watching your Insta stories that you drink the bullet proof coffee daily, do you have any other recommendations on something similar to drink, I am not a coffee drinker at all, but have heard of the great health benefits of this. - Natascha

Q: What’s a healthy drink to make my kids to get their healthy fats and nutrients? - Sarah

Q: What do you eat during family occasions and holidays? Do you eat clean? Do you ever eat cake and ice cream for birthdays? - Sarah

Q: Ok it's an honest question. Alcohol...how much and what is the lowest calorie one to have if out or cooking out? I love my beer but want that skinny, healthy body. - Natalie

Q: Kombucha is made with sugar. It’s supposed to be healthy. Do you drink it even with it containing sugar? - Sarah

Q: I eat very clean throughout my weekday (meal preps) and seriously look forward to cheat meals on the weekend--I love ice cream and it's the only real dairy I consume--and I usually have a burger and pancakes. Any suggestions on ways to not be so attached to cheat meals?

Let’s face it, according to surveys, (as well as simple observation and conversation) we can gather that most of us are struggling with or have struggled with some sort of digestive issue in our life.

Although the causes may be complex and vary from person to person, I have found some pretty consistent improvement in my personal symptoms by avoiding specific things, and by introducing others.

In this episode, I get pretty real with you about my personal experiences and I also share very specifically what has helped my healing, and what tends to hurt my progress.

So, if you’re ready to talk all about poop (& how to improve yours) grab a notebook, a big glass of water, & enjoy!

My boyfriend Dalton Bullard is back on the podcast to answer some questions with me.

Recently I have been watching tons of “Relationship Theory” videos [ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8qcvQ7Byc3PpWeT4JayOSlIZA5K5zg95 ] where power couple Tom Bilyeu and his wife, Lisa Bilyeu, discuss every aspect of their relationship and provide advice to their listeners.

The questions we answer in this episode are just 9 of the 26 “Relationship Revelation” questions that Tom & Lisa offer here - http://info.impacttheory.com/relationship/?utm_source=Website&utm_medium=Hello%20Bar&utm_campaign=relationship_revelations_hello_bar&utm_content=relationship_revelations_hello_bar

These questions are meant to help you get even more clear on the intentions of your relationship, the needs and desires of yourself and your partner, as well as develop a stronger bond and deeper connection in your partnership.

If you’d like to listen to a previous episode with Dalton, find Episode 5.

Enjoy!

In this episode I invite you to explore your relationship to your body. How do you see yourself right now? Have you ever felt happy with your physical body in the present moment, or only in hindsight? Do you have goals for your physique that you feel you never really reach?

It’s time to rethink your “body image” and your relationship to it. Imagine that you had no goals other than to feel good inside of your own skin. Well, guess what? That IS our only goal when we really get to the core of it all.

So, join me in discovering how we can begin working with our bodies, instead of against, and finally get to the root of what we’re actually longing for.

I share real life experiences I’ve faced regarding my body image and what it has taught me about the irony of my efforts to reach perfection. I also provide suggestions on how we can start to join forces with our bodies and how doing so is the only path to self-love and true confidence.
