Live Alive

Our focus and attention is often dragged off into unintended areas, leaving us later wondering where, or how we fell short on time and achievement. Where we spend our focused time and attention may be one of the largest impacts to living out our best lives. On today’s episode, we talk about what it means to take back your focus and shift from existing to living.

It’s true, nothing changes if nothing changes. So if change is required, how do we push forward towards growth? On today’s episode Anisa and Jordan spend time exploring tools we can all use to help push through discomfort, and take real steps towards both the small and large accomplishments we’ve set our sights on.

Growth, progress, goals and really anything you’re trying to accomplish requires change, and change is not comfortable. Most of us realize the initial steps we need to take in order to try something new, but we avoid those steps at the first hint of the slightest inconvenience. In other words, we avoid the discomfort. Join us as we take a look at why it’s valuable to get a bit more used to pushing through that discomfort.

Plenty of people quit their goals just after getting started or when things get difficult. It can be counter intuitive to take a beat and acknowledge your progress. But celebrating your small wins and the progress you’ve made can affirm that you actually do have what it takes. In this episode, we talk about how celebrating your small wins can expand your view of what’s possible and give you fuel for the remaining road ahead towards your goal.

Fear can be crippling when it comes to living our fullest potential and achieving our goals. If you find yourself stuck at start when it comes to your dreams, fear is the likely culprit. Hear how fear manifests itself and what actions you can take to work through it to live your most intentional, purposeful life.

Do you know what you want to be known for? Knowing who you are impacts how you show up. Your identity can be as much a compass for life in getting you to your desired destination. If you’re letting your environment and society shape your identity, it’s time to decide what you want to be known for. In this episode, Anisa and Jordan visit some recent college football rivalries to explore the power of identity and how walking in that identity can make significant impacts on your life.

On the path to accomplishing anything, deciding is the first step. Deciding unlocks your potential and gives others permission to be the help you may need along the way. In this episode, Anisa and Jordan use the lens of a historical reference, “burn the boats” to set a fire under all of us to make the decision and step forward towards what we aim to accomplish.

Our belief systems power the way we see ourselves and even the way we approach the world. Belief systems have the power to propel us into our next level or they can immobilize us and cause us to shrink to a lesser version of ourselves. This episode examines where these belief systems can come from, how to deconstruct the negative ones and reframe them to empower us to be the best version of ourselves. If you’ve been struggling with self-sabotage or continuing to fail at a goal, it’s time to evaluate your belief systems to see if they’re serving you, or if they’re just B.S. Listen in.

Confidence is one of the most misunderstood human emotions. Many believe you either have or you don't. This assumption can cost you your success. If success at anything has a cost, then confidence is the currency.  Confidence is something you can create, perfect and utilize to achieve your goals. Listen in to hear how sowing confidence can reap a wealth of benefits.

Do you have a process? Goals are forgotten and left behind every year by too many people to count. It’s the icing on the cake - the stuff everyone loves to think and dream about. Today, we take a look at the less glamorous ingredients - The Process. We believe the process and the work makes all the difference and more of our energy should focus there rather than the goal alone. Anisa and Jordan break this down for us.
