LOST IN THE LABELS

Lindsay Blount is commonly branded as a ‘regular, white suburban mom’ or just a ‘military wife’. However, if you made the mistake of generalizing her into one of these categories, you’d be missing a woman with incredible courage and achievement. Lindsay has many labels: she’s a wife, a mom, a doctoral student, an assistant to a Dean, a writer, and a photographer.

Recently, she had her identity completely uprooted when she took a 23andMe DNA test during the pandemic and found out some shocking news. In the last year, Lindsay has taken a deep dive into identity and it’s meaning down to the root. She challenges everyone to consider identity has something that is not a fixed part of your being, rather it is something you can learn and relearn. Lindsay is currently writing her first book on identity shake ups and she hopes her story will inspire everyone to rip out the roots of their own identity and start creating a more true and authentic one.

Her story is captivating and unfolding. We are lucky enough to have her bringing us along her journey as she’s stepping through it. You’re not going to want to miss it.

Confidence isn’t a tag. What do I mean by that?

Think of confidence as a tag on a tag, like if you were to go into a consignment store and find a little orange sticker placed on top of the manufacturers label. You might get in the habit of calling yourself a ‘self-conscious’ person and sometimes you have multiple areas of struggle in your life that will make you feel the overwhelming weight of insecurity and struggle. However, the truth is that you have areas of your life that you show up with confidence and areas where you may feel deficient.

Today’s episode will reveal how self-confidence is built and just how easy it is for experiences and relationships to wilt away the confidence inside of you.

Many of you set intentional goals when a New Year arrives that surrounds a specific interest or area of your life. I’ve noticed many fitness, health, nutrition, self, spiritual and even boundary goals. However, it’s rare that you hear about couples setting intimacy goals. Last year was extremely taxing on your relationship with your partner due to many different factors and unfortunately, we are seeing a major influx of divorce as well as break ups because of the stress that your relationship had to weather.

Today’s episode will inspire you to set intimacy goals for February 2021 and think intentionally about what sex and intimacy means to you and your partner.

Today we are celebrating our 61st episode! Why would we celebrate such an odd number?

Yesterday’s episode talked about the need for me to tear out the tag ‘inconsistent’ as I am faced with the challenge of producing a daily podcast episode… E V E R Y D A Y! As far back as I can remember, I struggled with follow through so starting a daily podcast felt like a big step outside my comfort zone.

Sometimes we find words that are more valuable to our growth and movement then what we originally would think. I talked yesterday about attaching the tag ‘consistent’ or ‘execution’ but today I realized that the tag I want to attach to myself for 2021 is ‘cadence’. Cadence is the rhythm of your life, the clicks of success. My friend, John Stange, is getting prepared to release his newest book on May 25th. He’s written over 20 books, has 3 successful podcasts, is a gifted pastor, brilliant blogger and generous giver. When I met Paster John, I thought to myself, how does he do ALL of this?!

The answer is simple, he has achieved all his success through cadence. Every single step he takes leads him closer to his life’s mission and purpose, with rhythm. To learn more about Pastor John Stange, his books, his podcast, and his blog visit www.desirejesus.com.

My quit lives in the dip! That might not make any sense to you right now, but it will make sense when you listen to today’s episode. My motivation is fueled by momentum so when my momentum is interrupted, often I will find my ‘failure’ tag in that dip. Now that doesn’t mean that I’ve failed if I would just continue on with forward motion but often, I’m so hard on myself about losing momentum that instead of a dip it turns into a cliff edge.

You need three things to do this work of tearing out your tags.

1. The ability to visualize your tags and where they’re located in your body.
2. Physically tear the negative ways that you feel labeled in half, or to shreds if you choose. I recommend sticky notes.

1. Affirmations, you must verbally affirm the work that you’re doing, it will help move you more quickly through this work.

If you’re wearing the tag ‘inconsistent’ like me, decide what area of your life you’re inconsistent in and what you’d like to attach in place of that tag once you tear it out. I’m removing ‘inconsistent’ and attaching ‘consistent’, ‘resilience’ and ‘intention’.

How often do you start something new without ‘intention’?

Or rather… with intention and then forget what that was when the new gets difficult?

You may be so burdened by that tags that you’re wearing that you have lost sight of the fact that you “should” be wearing the tag intention as you tackle most, if not all, of the actions, thoughts and relationships that you encounter on a daily basis.

Today’s episode should challenge you to ask yourself, am I taking action in my life without intention OR is my intention not clear and vocalized before starting something new?

Intention is a tag that I’m adding to my work for 2021 as I don’t always act with intention and my intention starts to become muddy as the NEW becomes difficult.

Do you remember my story about my metaphorical climb to the top of a 14,000ft. mountain after my divorce? If you didn’t get the chance to hear that episode, I’ve linked it for you here.

Tear Out the Tags, The Podcast - #emboldened

Today’s episode will push you to attach the tag #resilience in the lining of your body. I was lucky enough to take an assessment a few years ago that revealed my lack of resilience. Again, I had this tag mis-labeled within me because throughout my life I had been called a #dramaqueen, #toomuch and #emotional. It turns out that I have a good balance of analytical thinking and emotional thinking within me but struggle with getting up when I get knocked down.

Would you consider yourself a resilient person?

Do you wear the tag patience?

We are taught to have big goals, but as the world gets bigger it seems more and more intimidating to have really BIG goals. The reason we’ve been wired to want success and achievement overnight is because the world of technology has trained us to believe that everything moves quickly.

Often what you miss when chasing your big goals are the baby step that get you moving on the journey. When you skip the small achievable goals, you’ll find yourself stuck, in analysis paralysis. You’ll find yourself wearing many tags, including:

#impatient

#overthinker

#unworthy

#imposter syndrome

Today’s episode will encourage you to attach #patience as you chase your dreams.

Today is the conclusion to the story behind my #stagefright tag. You’ll learn that I had the tag mis-labeled inside of me, leaving me helpless in moving forward because I was working so hard to overcome the wrong tag.

My husband, my cousin Chelsey, my neighbors Gary and Robin and Michael Port all helped me re-attach the tag authority that I had given up years prior. I hope that this will encourage you to explore the way that you label your tags and how they are defined within you. The worst thing you can do is work hard to tear out the tags that are holding you back only to find that you’ve been removing the wrong element.
