  • Taking the Shame out of Starting Over with Dawn Brown

    To wrap up this month's focus on Failure and Failure Recovery, I invited a woman whom I have personally seen fail and recover, bounce back when plans didn't work out and STILL keep growing, thriving and showing others how to do the same!

    This conversation is both encouraging and entertaining and I KNOW you will be inspired listening to Dawn's story.

    Dawn Brown is De People's Coach

    She is a firm believer that we are all here on this Earth for a reason. No EXCEPTIONS; and because of that, she encourages women to make it a priority to find out what that reason is, and to go after it with full intensity!

    As she is pursuing her purpose, she is sharing what the journey looks like along the way…

    You are in for an absolute treat. Make sure you listen to the end.

  • How to Bounce Back After Failing

    "Part of the reason why we feel so rocked by our failures is that by nature we are OVERACHIEVERS in our minds.  We usually think we are better  than we actually are. We don’t often consider that fact that we might not get things right on the first try."

    This week I am giving you a practical explanation on how to prepare for your next failure.

    I’m also going to share with you a list of 6 things you can do to recover well after a failure.

    Near the end of the episode I quickly be walk you through an exercise that I use with my coaching clients; it involves a bit of imagery and squeezing...I know that sounds a little SUS, but you'll have to listen to the end to make that make sense.

  • Can Planning REALLY Prevent Failure?

    Hey Sis...
    Did you know that the fact that you have to set a goal denotes that you don’t have EVERYTHING you need to be successful YET and the reality is that success lives on the other side of many failures?

    This week I'm discussing the following questions:

    1. When are we considered failures? *I know that sounds uncomfortable, at least for me, but we are going in today Sis.
    2. Does failure serve a purpose?
    3. How can we properly process failure?

    Listen all the way to the end for some SUPER encouragement and some of the things I tell myself when I am recovering from failure.
