Owning Her Authority Podcast | For Ascending Women Ready to Boldly Amplify Their Impact

As we come to the end of The Goals With Soul Summit, I'm thrilled to be joined by Business & Holistic Life Design Coach, Sasza Lohrey, for a conversation about how we find a balance between working towards your goals and enjoying the present moment.

In this final episode, Sasza shares with us how our goals can serve as our "north star" and provides a direction for us to pursposefully move, without sacrificing our enjoyment of life and the unexpected twists and turns it may take.

We'll ask ourselves questions such as:

• What story do I want to write?
• How do I invest in the present moment while planting seeds for the future?
• How will I allow flexibility in my journey?

As you wrap up your summit experience, I invite you to think about the bigger picture of your life and your goal-getting endeavours and explore how you might choose to balance both the present moment and what the future may look like for you personally.

As we dive into the topic of Desire and Vision today in the summit, I want to take a moment to encourage you to trust yourself to take the next right step on your journey. So often there's this idea that we "should" know exactly where we're headed, but what if instead we followed our own personal north star and trusted ourselves and our intuition to take one step forward after another - allowing for both commitment to our goals and the unfolding of the magic of life.

In today's episode I'm taking a more personal approach and sharing my own journey of connecting to my inner guidance, listening to little nudges from the universe, and trusting myself to take just one step at a time - and it's my hope that in sharing these stories you too choose to trust yourself and approach growth and goal-getting from the perspective of curiosity and kindness towards yourself too!

Welcome back to the final episode of our Overcoming Overwhelm Special Series on the Live by Design Podcast!

Throughout this special series, we've delved into strategies to tackle overwhelm and feel empowered in our lives. Today, we're wrapping up with a grounding exercise designed to keep us present and centered.

According to Calm.com, the 54321 Method is "a grounding exercise designed to manage acute stress and reduce anxiety. [...] It leverages the power of your five senses—sight, touch, hearing, smell, and taste—to redirect your attention away from distressing thoughts and emotions. By focusing on sensory experiences, the method aims to ground you in the here and now."

Grounding Exercise: The 54321 Method

👀 5 Things You See: Notice and name five things in your surroundings
🖐️ 4 Things You Touch: Identify four physical objects you can touch
👂 3 Things You Hear: Tune in to three sounds around you
👃 2 Things You Smell: Engage your sense of smell and name two scents
👅 1 Thing You Taste: Find one thing you taste

This exercise is about mindfulness and presence. Whether you practice it daily for grounding or use it in moments of overwhelm, the 54321 Method brings you back to the present moment, reconnecting you with your senses.

Our journey in this series has focused on awareness, acceptance, action planning, and now, activation. Let's empower ourselves to live by design, embracing ease, abundance, and joy.

💗 These strategies can ease overwhelmed feelings. But it's important to note that many of the symptoms of overwhelm overlap with mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety. If life still feels relentlessly stressful after implementing changes, or if those changes feel impossible right now, please reach out to your healthcare provider.

Let's dive into the third episode of our Overcoming Overwhelm Special Series! Overwhelm affects over 60% of us, and in this episode, we explore ways to tackle it in-the-moment. Together we'll explore how to:

🌬️ Pause & Breathe: Take a breather before reacting. Close your eyes, place a hand on your heart, and take purposeful breaths to come back home to yourself.

🗒️ List It Out: Organize your thoughts on paper. Let those ideas flow and then systematically tackle what's feeling overwhelming you.

📵 Digital Disconnect: Step away from those devices. Put down your phone, step away from the computer, and create some space from electronic noise and notifications.

🏃‍♀️ Physical Movement: Time to get moving. Whether it's a quick walk or a yoga session, engage your body to release tension and reconnect with yourself.

🌈 Change of Scenery: Switch it up! Move to a different room, workspace, or even a favorite coffee shop to shift your perspective and ease overwhelm.

Which of these coping strategies resonates most with you? Let's connect via email at [email protected] or via IG @mskatehouse - I'd love to know which of these 5 approaches connects with you!
