She Finds Joy

This is the last episode of the Mindset Series. We’ve covered the Happiness Mindset, the Self-Care Mindset, the Belief Mindset, and the Manifestor’s Mindset. Now we bring it all together in the System’s Mindset.

People feel frustrated when they can’t take the actions they need to make sustainable progress in their lives. It’s not that we lack the ability or the willpower to make healthy changes in our life—it’s that we don’t have systems or blueprints to follow. We need accountability and a vision for who we want to become.

Take a look at the stats. According to The American Society for Training and Development, of people who...

• Consciously decide to set a goal, only 25% achieve their goal.

We gravely overestimate the effect of tiny, small changes in our lives and we give up way too easily because we aren’t seeing results fast enough. Believe it or not, you don’t have to take massive action to get massive results. In fact, you can treat your life like compound interest and stay laser-focused on an area of improvement, taking small actionable steps to create a ripple effect in your life. Becoming the best version of yourself requires you to continuously extract your old beliefs, and to download a new set of beliefs that match up with the reality you want to create.

• Why it's not your willpower that’s preventing you from reaching your goals.

Most of us create our lives by default. We haven’t learned how to manifest our desires through the magic of the Universe. We haven’t learned how to access the power of our thoughts and our mind. Ever wanted to know the secret to not just settling, but actually ACHIEVING your BIGGEST goals without working yourself to the ground?

In today’s episode, Kim discusses the Law of Attraction—the idea that everyone has a unique vibration that attracts other people, circumstances, and opportunities with the same vibration. If you want to change your life and empower yourself to create an amazing future, then you need to understand your role in the Law of Attraction. Tune into this episode to learn the secret to living life intentionally, to create your future by using the magic of the Universe, and to harness your thoughts to build a life you truly love.

To put it bluntly: if you don't have an internal belief system that supports your goals, you won’t be able to achieve those goals. Your beliefs are always driving what you can and cannot achieve in life.

Most humans have approximately 70,000 thoughts running through their minds on a daily basis. And from the research, we know that 5% of how you show up in life comes from your logical, thinking mind and 95% of how you show up in life comes from your subconscious mind. Your beliefs reside in your subconscious mind, but most of us aren’t even aware of those beliefs because they were formed before we were even six years old.

The good news is you can extract old, limiting beliefs and download a new set that will serve every part of your life going forward.

Many of us feel overwhelmed and defeated by life. And we certainly don’t feel like we have the time to even think about our own needs. Loving ourselves is a foreign concept for too many of us. Why can we so easily love our children, our parents, and our dogs, but we struggle to love ourselves?

Yet, the most important relationship you will ever have is the one you have with yourself.

Without adequate self-care, we’re unable to handle the stressors that come our way when we're depleted by physical and emotional exhaustion. On the other hand, we’re more resilient and capable when we feel our best both physically and emotionally.

In today’s fast-paced, high-demand world, it’s harder to just stop, breathe, and live in the moment. With the right tools and some simple strategies, one has the power to greatly decrease the negative effects of stress and increase personal health, happiness, and wellbeing. This workshop will investigate burnout, how to prevent burnout, and happiness and wellbeing strategies to help you create work-life flow.

• Why you are worthy of self-care

All of us want to be happy, even if we don’t want to admit it or we feel like it’s a frivolous thing to talk about. Some of us want professional success, to find the right partner, spiritual fulfillment, and others yearn for passion and purpose in their life. However, what holds true among almost everyone is that our culture looks at the happiness formula backward. We think, “If I get that job, then I’ll be happy,” or “When I get married, then I’ll be happy.” It’s a backward mindset.

See, when we take the time to recognize the opportunities, abundance, and blessings in our life, we begin to attract strong, better relationships. We begin to grow in our personal lives and our careers. It’s important that we let go of the unhealthy, deep-seated assumptions about what happiness looks like and start focusing more on what makes you happy in the here and now.

We need to make happiness a priority in our lives. To put it at the forefront of everything we do.

Many times we think we are overwhelmed… when in fact we are also underwhelmed. I believe burnout comes from both. When we feel underwhelmed, we feel lost from who we used to be, we no longer know what our hobbies are, or the dreams we want to pursue. Feeling underwhelmed keeps us tied to a job that sucks our soul or stuck in a relationship that continues to bleed us dry.

Which is why it’s time to step into the Arena of Bigness.

The Arena of Bigness is scary. It’s where you will fail. It’s full of uncertainty and risks. It’s where you fall face down in the dirt and wonder, “Will I ever get up again?” But, it’s also where you find your true gems, your true potential. It’s where you step out with courage and allow yourself to get uncomfortable because you know that’s what it takes to get where you need to go. On the other side of fear, vulnerability, risk, and uncertainty, lies greatness.

It’s time to step into our bigness, together.

If you don’t step forward with confidence, believing in the power of your dreams, you risk sitting on the sidelines your whole life. You risk never seeing your dreams manifest into reality. Playing small does not serve the world. The world needs your magic.

Burnout is a kind of exhaustion that seeps into every aspect of your life. Even though I travel around the country teaching teachers, business people, and more about how to overcome burnout, I can tell you that I, too, have been experiencing it lately. For me, burnout looks like:

• The inability to shut work off, even when I should be enjoying time off

I recently asked others in my Facebook Group what burnout out looks like to them and got these responses:

• Knots in my stomach the closer I get to work, despite LOVING my job.

You are allowed to have heavy emotions. It’s important to give ourselves the grace to feel the way we do and practice some self-compassion.

Even though I sometimes enter the burnout stage, I recognize the signs of when it’s coming on, and I have a set of habits that get me out of the gutter quicker. You are not alone in the struggle. I am there too.

• How to identify burnout when it’s first setting in.

Nicole is a board-certified, practicing OB/GYN and mom of two girls who empowers first-time moms to feel supported and prepared for pregnancy and birth. Over the last 15 years, she’s helped more than a thousand babies come into this world and has demystified pregnancy and childbirth for thousands of women through her 5-star rated All About Pregnancy & Birth podcast, her free online birth plan class, and her signature online program - The Birth Preparation Course.

Interviewing Dr. Nicole Rankins was such a pleasure. I mean, she’s delivered over a thousand babies! Can you imagine? Dr. Rankins authentically shares her own experiences with her two daughters and how the trauma of her first baby’s birth informs why and how she shows up to support, nurture, and educate expectant mothers.

Dr. Rankins is also an integrative health coach, which means she supports mothers from every aspect of their lives: physical, relational, spiritual, emotional, and financial. Honestly, these are the pillars we should all take a reflective look at in our own lives.

On top of delivering babies and coaching women, she is a high-achieving, career-oriented woman who desires to serve in a very big way. But, she is also a mother and a wife. She explains some of her favorite tips for juggling all of her roles, while also honoring and loving herself in the process.

Cassie provides her top tips for creating sustainable, healthy eating habits that can help boost your metabolism. She explains why maintaining your blood sugar levels throughout the day can help you feel satisfied, energetic, and happier. Plus, she shares a seven-minute video for strength training that can be done anywhere!

How many times in your life have you tried to lose weight using restrictive diets such as keto, Weight Watchers, the no-carb diet, and so on? How many times have you told yourself, “I’ll start again on Monday?” How many Januarys are you going to restrict yourself from carbs and cookies? For the majority of the people, this never works. Fad diets and diet culture deliver false promises and show us testimonials of former clients on Day 28, but they don’t talk about what happened on Day 31.

In this episode, Kim and Cassie discuss why women need to do the inner work of understanding and nurturing our bodies and how to get off the struggle bus when it comes to achieving our wellness goals. Cassie's approach is centered around not counting calories, not stepping on a scale daily, and not restricting ourselves from certain food groups. Instead, she offers us a healthy, feel-good solution to achieving our optimal health and wellness goals. She explains why we must stop utilizing a “one-size-fits-all” approach when trying to lose weight and instead create a sustainable lifestyle that truly fuels us.

Tune in to learn more about:

• Why it’s important to dissociate diet with body image and body size.

“Are you truly building lifelong, sustainable health habits or are you finding a quick fix diet for 30 days, and on Day 31, you run out to grab a box of doughnuts because you’ve completely restricted yourself for the last month? This approach doesn’t work.” - Cassie Riley
