There is not much that Shea Fisher-Durfey does not do! She is an Australian born Singer/Songwriter, Cowgirl, Fashion Model, Fashion Designer, Fitness expert, Jewelery Designer, and rodeo champion. She is also a wife and mom of two adorable girls.

In 1998 her family moved to America, where Shea was first introduced to Country Music. She signed her first record deal at only sixteen! She has had four #1 songs in Australia and a CMT Top 20 song in the U.S.

After her record company folded, Shea started her buckle company, her jewelry line, and later Shea Baby boots.

She still competes in Barrel Racing, and recently released a brand new pop-country single called 'Imagine".

Shea says this is the season for music. This inspirational lady wants to show her daughters that whether you're a mom or not, and regardless of age, you can be successful as a woman.

We talk about how the road to her success wasn't always smooth for her. There are still lots of ups and downs along the way. Shea is one amazing woman we know you will be inspired by her journey!!

Shea loves the quote, 'Failure is one step closer to success' She says, "I have never been afraid to fail, I would rather try something and it not work out then not try it and think, what if?".

Christmas is just around the corner so download the single and grab yourself a copy of her new album. Check out Shea's websites for some fashion inspiration.

Self-Care is so much more than just getting a pedicure!

Physical, emotional, spiritual, social, personal, home, and more.

This time of year things can get crazy and especially in 2020. We have to take care of ourselves so we can also take care of others.

We chat about the mental load we as women take on and what each of us personally do to stay in a good place.

When it comes to fashion really all have the same problem... Closets full of clothes and nothing to wear! Right?!!

Wardrobe stylist Delee taught us what slow fashion is and how to implement it in our lives and closets.

Slow fashion is a mindset shift. Look at your closet. How do you wear your clothes? How do you care for your clothes? AND how do you discard those clothes? Do you consume consciously?

We talked about 3 ways to find our personal style like Stacey London:

1. Comfort. What makes us feel comfortable in our skin what works best for your body and lifestyle.
2. Style. How to make proportions work for our body style things in a while to look current and stylish.
3. Self-expression. What message do these clothes say? Embrace your body and there is beauty in being yourself.

Who is ready to overhaul your closet now?

You can find more of Delee over at @thestylistnextdoor_ut

Delete also recommends watching the documentary the "True Cost" on amazon prime to learn even more.

We will also be adding a list of all her favorite places to shop sustainable fashion in our private Facebook group.

Can Journaling be therapeutic self-care? YES!

In this episode we talk about our experiences with journaling and how life changing it can be!

Pen in hand, writing out all the thoughts, the dreams, & the heartache can be very cathartic. Who would have thought putting thoughts on paper could be so powerful?! When we write things down they become true.

Journaling has been shown to reduce stress, increase memory, and keep thoughts and memories organized. Being able to look back on your growth can be exciting and rewarding.

Journal your LIFE into existence!

We'd love to hear your experiences! Do you journal?

Shauna Sauer is a Mom to 5 and Nonna to 3 grandkids with 2 more on the way. She has experienced much in her life including the divorce of her parents, losing her dad to suicide, becoming a step-mom, starting her own business with her husband, and graduating college with 3 small kids. All of these experiences prepared her for her biggest challenge, which happened in 2012 when she lost her oldest daughter in a texting and driving accident. Taylor Sauer was headed home from college when she decided to start texting and posting on social media. Her final post read, "Driving and Facebooking is not safe, haha." The accident got a lot of media attention, which in turn helped the Sauer Family change the laws about texting and driving in Idaho with the state recently passing a Hands Free law. Since the accident Shauna has shared her story with hundreds at schools, companies, driver's ed classes, church groups, and many others. She continues to share the story of how Taylor's decision to use her phone affected her family and hopes to change how people both young and old view this deadly addiction. Texting and driving creates a ripple effect...But Taylor's story also has created a positive Ripple Effect by Shauna sharing her story and saving so many lives. We were so honored to hear Shauna and Taylor's story and hope you share this with others and remember to "PUT IT DOWN" Don't let your send be the end...

Dannie is a mom of 3 boys, divorced and remarried, a breast cancer survivor, barre3 instructor, an artist, an areola micro pigmentation specialist specialist and a Christian. All of these things have come together and created the opportunity to empower breast cancer survivors-and all women-to rebuild after trauma (whether from cancer or other circumstances). She is Idaho's first areola micro pigmentation specialist! She has seen over 350 patients and started a non-profit Tit For Tat Collective aimed at helping breast cancer survivors with all aspects of recovery and treatment, also providing services to those who cannot afford the procedure.

Through Dannie's experience as a Barre3 instructor over the past 2 years, she has learned that many women (not just cancer survivors) are at odds with their bodies. Her goal is to creat a safe space for ALL women to begin to put themselves back together so that true, meaningful and lasting healing can begin and flourish. This begins with self-love for everyone.
