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

We have all done this. It’s a new year with big expectations and intentions and we jump in with ALL resolutions. And then halfway through January we’ve already forgotten what those resolutions were because we tried to do all-the-things at the same time. 

And the activation energy required to get going again when life inevitably happens is too great, and so we end up quitting…again.

That’s why I’m a firm believer in small, doable shifts over time via purpose-aligned habits rather than these giant unsustainable changes. So that’s why today we’re chatting about systems and habits that you can layer into each day which will move you closer to achieving those big goals. 

Say it with me now, consistency compounds!

Join me as we walk through:

✨ The 4 top benefits of habit tracking

✨ My 3 pronged-approach for sustainable habits

✨ The power of habit loops & habit stacking formula

✨ And finally the importance of self-reflection and celebration of your goals

🥳 Join the habit tracking party and download my FREE Habit Tracker here! 🎉

Pop in your ear buds, press play and let's move towards sustainable habits that lead you to loving yourself even more, crafting the life of your dreams, and achieving your goals - together.

Welcome to Joyful Corner! Our mini episode each week where we choose to look for and celebrate the good that already surrounds us. I hope these episodes leave you feeling lighter and brighter after each listen! So let’s hop into this gratitude practice, together.

This week I’m grateful for my new evening routine! Instead of getting overtired and going to bed too late, I'm taking a more proactive approach to the part of my day after my kiddos are asleep and before my own bedtime where I'm enjoying my skincare routine, brushing and flossing my teeth, and then reading, journaling, and / or meditating in bed. This slower, screen-free, and peaceful part of my day is setting my morning routine up for success the next day and is allowing me to even more fully live by design and not by default!

And friend, I’d like to personally invite you to join our free Facebook Group Community of Live By Design Podcast Insiders, because every week we come together to practice Joyful Corner together, and we’d love for you to join us in this joy-centered, gratitude-focused practice!

So if you too are ready to pause your day, look for the good, and feel the abundance that comes with cultivating joy and practicing gratitude, then pop in your earbuds, press play, and let's do this!

How often have you found yourself in a destructive cycle of negative thoughts? Where you’re thinking unkind, critical thoughts about yourself…and you know you want to shift that inner narrative but you’re not sure how to do it. 

What if you could break that negative mindset and shift into positive thoughts? And no, we aren’t talking about toxic positivity here, but about intentional thinking. 

Which is exactly what my guest Eva Rodriguez did. Eva is a certified life coach, personal trainer, and advanced certified weight loss coach. After several devastating losses in her life that led to overeating, overspending, and putting her needs and health last, Eva realized she was choosing to be miserable through self-destructive thoughts and behaviors…and she had her enough is enough moment. She decided that she would make intentional decisions that would lead to a happier and healthier lifestyle. And she did just that!

Today Eva walks us through her “4N Framework” on how to leave our negative thought patterns behind so we can choose to create the life and the results that we want. 

So friend, pop in your ears buds, press play and tune in to learn how to change your think-act-feel cycle with making intentional thought decisions.

It’s a new year and with it comes excitement and new possibilities! 

Today I’m embracing that excitement and am sharing a Yung Pueblo inspired meditation with you. It’s my hope for you in this new year that you stay in touch with what’s in your heart, that you embrace the goals and vision you have for 2023, and that you make time for what feels important to you!

And as we meditate together - either sitting or even as a walking meditation - let’s reflect on Yung Pueblo’s insights as he writes, “The energy for 2023 is feeling good about saying no often. So you can focus on what you actually want to do. If it doesn’t click with your intuition, it’s not for you.”

So friend, what are you saying yes to in 2023, and what are you leaving behind for 2022? Let’s meditate together and embrace the fresh start of a new year together.

Past Episodes Referenced:

• Did you listen to episode 178 where we reflected on the past 12 months and the lessons that we learned as well as what we want to release and leave behind in the new year? You can listen to that here!
  
  
  
• And episode 180 where we talk about leaving into habit-based goals and calling your shot for 2023 - you can listen to that here.
  
  
  
• And last but not least episode 181 where we dive into how to create a vision board for the New Year that’s goal-based and habit-focused which you can listen to here!

Chose to shift your mindset towards growth.

Chose to say yes only to what feels abundant and aligned.

Chose to practice self-love.
