Love At Home

You know those times when you're having a rough day, and you feel downhearted, and then there's this nagging voice that tells you, "You shouldn't be sad! You should be grateful!"? And then all of the sudden you're cured??? Yeah...me neither because that NEVER happens. We hear that little voice, and it puts us even deeper in pain only now we've added shame to the mix. In this episode, I share why telling yourself to be grateful isn't a cure-all and why it hurts more than it helps. I also share what does help! Tune in!

It used to be that you only hadd your small circle to compare yourself to. Fast forrward to now in our digital age where we see people and homes from all over; what they're wearing, eating, doing, how they spend their time and money, what they're listening to, watching, reading and we compare ourselves to this endless stream of information and feeling miserable. While we can't stop the media we CAN learn a healthier mindset!

I've been on a minimalist journey this year - not so much in my physical space, but I'm talking more so in my mental space. We "collect" a lot of thoughts, biases, and beliefs that at one point seemed to make sense (to your brain at least), but now it's just creating a lot of mental clutter, fear, and adding to our insecurities. In this week's episode, I teach the importance of adopting a mental minimalist's stance and share 6 thoughts, you must say goodbye to in order to create a more confident life!

You know them when you see them, those people that just radiate light and confidence, and you wonder what their "secret" is. You might think, "how can they be so certain of themselves while I'm struggling just to feel a glimmer of that?" You don't have to wonder anymore. On the podcast, I'm sharing the top 10 ground rules that confident people live by and that you'll want to start incorporating into your life too. Tune in!

It can feel easy to feel confident when life is smooth, and everything seems to be going right but what about the times when life isn't easy, and things aren't going the way we think they should? Everyone has had times in their lives when it seems like their confidence takes a hit, and it's a tough road to try and build that back up. In today's episode, I'll walk you through the doubt and out of the darkness so you can feel the warmth of true confidence again. 

In each of our lives there are times when we've wanted something so bad that the wanting felt heavy, sore, and almost unbearable. It can be difficult to talk about and when you do it's even more difficult because most people don't (can't) understand. This leaves you feeling alone, misunderstood, and acutely discouraged. In this episode I walk you through the pain and guide you to the other side of peace, certainty, and above all, confidence.

As a society, we tend to focus most of our efforts on finding the ANSWERS, the solutions, the tips and tricks to figure things out so we can move on but what if instead of looking for the "how," we stopped to ask ourselves some beautiful questions? Berger says, "one of the most important things questioning does is to enable people to think and act in the face of uncertainty." Learning to ask the right questions leads to a life of confidence amidst ever-changing outside circumstances. Tune in!

Sometimes we can feel like we're at the mercy of our circumstances. We don't know what the day will bring (especially in 2020), and so we wake up each day hoping that things will go smoothly, but the second we hit a stumbling block or obstacle, we crumble. It can take quite a bit of mental energy to pull yourself out of these negative emotions and even feels like it takes over your entire day. But there is something you can do ahead of time that will help. There are decisions you can make ahead of time to keep you moving forward, keep progressing and keep creating the life you want to be living. Tune in with LDS Life Coach Hannah Coles to learn how to pre-decide your day!

We are constantly colliding with others. We are born into families and surrounded by people. We go to school with others, work with others, marry, have kids, and even with all our years of practice we still struggle to see people and ourselves as we really are. In this episode, I offer you a way out and a way up so you can leave the doubts, discouragement, and insecurities behind.

Have you ever found yourself asking, "at what point do I...?" Like, at what point is enough enough? at what point do I leave? at what point do I realize it's just not going to happen and I need to give up? I hear this from clients often and when I do it's when they're at their edge and feeling exasperated, discouraged, and frustrated. They NEED something to change, but they're not sure they're ready for THAT change and every single time I tell them each the same thing. It's something that helps them get to clarity, certainty, and confidence. Want to know what I tell them? Tune in!
