Fear is a normal part of life. But in this episode Brianna discusses that many times her fear was multi-faceted. All in all, this is a very real episode about why having REAL CONVERSATIONS is important to making an impact, *actually* overcoming your fears to move forward AND why allowing good things to come to you is more important than forcing yourself to always help others

Julie is a mom with Type 1 Diabetes and the owner of RepeatedRhythms.com (her handmade headband side business)!

We talk through what it’s been like for Julie to watch her business grow ORGANICALLY:

- From sewing pants for her daughter to being asked from other parents to make their clothes for their kiddo's as well

- AND THEN having requests come in from adults to make headbands for them (and not the kids)!

We also cover:

- What being a Type 1 Diabetic has taught Julie about life

- What Rest & Relation "R&R" means for her (this is super awesome advice)

- Some things she's writing in her upcoming book (brutally hilarious, honest stories about growing up with a chronic disease)

I'm an Author! And a One-Year Resident of Florida! Talking about how slowing down this last year in Florida ("stay-cation'ing") actually helped me to speed up. I give you a snapshot of the next 5-6 episodes of my podcast: 1) Age doesn't matter, 2) Momhood with a Creative Identity, 3) Intermittent Fasting, 4) The Capacity of our Energy, and 5) From Sewing Hobby to Side Business.

Here's some of what this past year has taught me:

1. Slowing down is sometimes speeding up (and an encounter with a stranger that verified the same)

27 hours, 66 episodes and 5,000 downloads later, I am celebrating by interviewing myself.

If the old Me, the Me from 1 year ago (starting this podcast), had a chance to interview the Me I am today (the one who is still podcasting 365 days later)... she would ask her 7 questions. And those 7 questions ARE this celebratory episode!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LISTENING ON THIS JOURNEY WITH ME!

If you've never left a review, you can do so on the Apple Podcast app by visiting my show's homepage and scrolling to the bottom where it says "Write a Review!" - I LOVE YOU GUYS

"Your brain doesn't communicate with your ovaries"... Did you know this happens when you're on birth control? I DIDN'T!

This is an exceptional conversation about women's menstrual cycle's, PMS, period pains and how women NEED to listen to their bodies! Pirita (Menstrual Coach & Yoga Teacher) taught me more in this 50 minute conversation than I ever learned back in Sex Ed Classes...

DO NOT MISS THIS EPISODE, Ladies. Your period doesn't have to suck. The more you know about the 5 phases, the more conscious choices you will make to ease the process.
