PSYC 101

 So, you might have noticed I've been a little quiet this year. I haven't been creating many videos, sending emails to you all, or posting much on my social media. There are several big reasons for that.

I explain it all in this video, but here's the rundown.

I've always had way too many ideas and directions I could go in, so picking what I devote my time and energy to is a constant struggle. However, in mid-2017, I made the decision to start a new business with one of my closest friends. That suddenly became my main focus. Most of my waking hours were spent trying to make this a success...and it was. We started consulting with social media and other marketing for a wide variety of organizations until just a few months ago. We both realized this wasn't what we wanted to build for our lives, and decided to move onto different ventures.

During all of this, I needed a place to put the thoughts I couldn't get out of my head, so I created the Communicate with Confidence podcast which I posted daily on for the first couple months (now it's down to only three times a week ;) I began doing one-on-one coaching to share the knowledge that I've acquired around pursuing my dreams in life, and it's now become one of my favorite things to do.

But wait, there's more.

I also built an online course teaching anyone with a passion how to become a public speaker, am finishing up a book, and workshopping some show ideas that will be premiering sometime early next year. All while reaching over three thousand people through my talks as well as thousands more through social media and the website.

So that's why I haven't been doing a whole lot with U Can't B Erased. I've been figuring out where I'm going and learning along the way. Now, I've got a more stable schedule and view for 2019, and I can't wait to journey with all of you through it. 

Zoe Klein joins me today to talk about her experience suffering from an eating disorder and what you can do to understand and help someone overcome theirs.

Now meet Zoe:

Zoe started her career in the field of education, where she gained extensive experience working with children and adolescents struggling with a host of learning issues and mental health challenges. It was there that she realized that her true passion was counseling. She now works in a private practice setting as well as a hospital and counseling agency.

Mallory joins me today to discuss how she went from sitting in a group trying to overcome her anxiety and self-worth challenges to speaking to that exact same group just a little while later. Now meet Mallory:

"Mallory Gothelf is a writer, speaker, and passionate mental health advocate. Deciding to put purpose to her illness, she has taken to stepping out of the shadows of her disease, and into the proverbial light, to bring a face of hope to those still in the throes of this battle."

 We all want to be a leader in one way or another. Well, here's how to actually do it.

Come on. We all know that making huge New Year's Resolutions won't last. So how about instead we make small changes in our lives that can have a huge effect down the road.
