Today’s episode of The Being Human Podcast I’m sharing a previous episode I recorded on the Spiritual Boss Babe Podcast with Stephanie Bellinger where we talk about how to truly uncover parts of yourself and turn that mess into your magic. 

I wanted to share this with you because this episode truly touches on some of the struggle we face when it comes to defining our purpose and taking action in a way that feels good for us. Stephanie and I speak at length about how living in misalignment can severely threaten your quality of life, business, and mental health, and we dive into the imposter syndrome that threatens your success.

This episode truly shines a light on how our darkest moments and the things we don’t want to share can be what changes the world and your life.

Today’s episode of The Being Human Podcast I’m talking with Mel Frontino, owner and Head Flower Chick at The Flower Social in Austin Texas, about her gorgeous uplevel that came from getting support as an entrepreneur.

Mel has dedicated her time to creating a space where flower lovers can explore their creativity within floral design, but after getting support, she was truly inspired to shift her focus to help other women start their own floral design businesses through her Become A Floral Designer in Two Days Course. 

In this episode we’re diving into the truth behind why every entrepreneur - especially solopreneurs - need support to grow, sustain, and truly feel aligned, and to find support in whatever form that feels right to them. We’re discussing how coaches, therapy, memberships, communities, your team, and other support systems beyond your friends are the defining difference that makes a business truly sustainable, both personally and professionally.

This episode of The Being Human Podcast is about one of the core things we, as entrepreneurs, need to be successful in our lives - to know yourself.

Authenticity is a buzzword nowadays - rightfully so - because our audiences are attracted to who we are, not what we sell. If you don’t know who you are, your people will be able to feel it and your business will fail, which is why I highly recommend a means of therapy on your self-discovery journey.

Therapy was once taboo, but now the healing journey has become as critical to your success as your marketing plan - and in my experience, even more so.

I’m going to walk you through some common themes I notice in entrepreneurs that slow them down or stop their happiness altogether, along with how working with a therapist can help.

Let’s dive in.

I don’t know about you, but there’s not much out there about the female cycle and productivity. Most of the time, as women, we get lost in the ebbs and flows, the constant ups and downs that are our hormones, but Kate has figured out how to use her monthly cycle to her advantage.

Her work has been featured by The Today Show, The New York Times, Harvard Business Review, Yahoo! Finance, Forbes, Women’s Health, Glamour, and more.

She’s committed to supporting ambitious women to light up the world without burning themselves out, and teaches data and soul-driven time and energy management practices that result in saving time, making more money, and experiencing less stress through her Do Less Planner, her programs, and her books, Do Less and Money: A Love Story.

I cannot wait for you to use the best practices she has around your monthly cycle so you can skyrocket your success, feel better overall, and truly create a schedule that works for you.

Let’s get to it.

Today’s episode of The Being Human Podcast I got to sit down with Ruby Warrington, the voice behind the term “Sober Curious,” and we really dug into the topic of alcohol.

As you all know, I’m a recovering addict, about to be 2 years sober, so this topic is near and dear to my heart.

Now Ruby is the author of the 2019 book “Sober Curious” and her work has spearheaded a global movement to reevaluate our relationship to alcohol, which made her perspective so powerful to hear. She’s the founder of “Now Age” lifestyle platform The Numinous, and with 20 years’ experience as a lifestyle journalist, Ruby is also a sought-after speaker, book doula, podcaster, and brand consultant, and is known as a true thought leader in the modern wellness space.

In this conversation, Ruby and I get really personal about our relationships with alcohol and how it’s often used to numb deep-rooted pain, along with how to truly explore the ideas behind alcohol use and the things we suffer from that make us want to use it.

This sobriety discussion is seriously illuminating.
