Happy New Year everyone! A relaxing meditation to let go of what no longer serves and ignite our transformation. Enjoy!

Full episode! We discuss the difference between being disciplined and control. We often suppress emotions or project at people as a means of control, rather than disciplining ourselves to observe the thoughts generated by our mind. We are often conditioned to give up our power to authority. We give up authority to the thoughts that run through our head because our ego minds need to give power away to something. This realization is a game changer! Being disciplined means we can take action to take our power back from the thoughts and stories in our heads. What power do you give up to others or to yourself? What stories do you tell yourself to feel in control? Join us for this jam-packed episode! We discuss a lot and would love to hear from you.

Enjoy this half episode trailer where we discuss the differences between discipline and control. In an effort not to be considered "controlling" we often do not discipline ourselves to stop our mind and allow it to run away with our thoughts. As we've mentioned before, being able to pause and reflect, rather than allow our triggers to pull us into reaction, is one of the key ways we can discipline ourselves and learn to stop the mind. It's an ongoing process. Sharing our experiences and insights. Full episode available soon! Happy New Year!

An addition to my last podcast and an intro to a new one that Kelly and I will do together which was sparked by a conversation I had with a friend regarding suffering and whether or not it is a choice. I feel we have the power to choose and it takes a lot of digging into our darkest corners to be able to hold that space for ourselves. Sharing my thoughts and I'd love to hear yours too!

There were so many titles I could have chosen for this episode of Kellie's Shorts, I had a hard time choosing! As I moved through some physical pain that brought on emotional releasing, I wanted to talk about how we can become aware of when we are holding onto pain and how to let go. It's a process and no two people do it alike. People can validate our pain as easily as parking, but do we want to stay there? I've learned to ask myself - how long do I want to be hurt? When you ask that question, it can be a game changer. Thanks for tuning in!

We sat down for an impromptu podcast since we were all sitting around discussing things we were processing anyway. Our conversation centres around actively participating in what we are creating in our life, and how we are creating it with the thoughts we think and taking note of what our mind is doing. Alyssa joins us for the bulk of the episode, but we have others cooking and such in the background. Such is life when we decide to do an episode on the fly!

Another of my short episodes where I reminisce on the times in my life where I've often said yes to other people for a variety of reasons - to keep the peace, to be liked and accepted, to not make anyone upset - and the list goes on! It's a topic I know a lot of people can relate to. Saying yes to yourself means you can feel out what is best for you and not miss out on the opportunities you are able to provide for yourself. If you've experienced something like this, share with us.

This week, we sat down with Kellie's children and talked about the process of becoming better communicators, working through ego triggers, and what it meant to learn to hear ourselves. Hearing ourselves, meant we could be better listeners to those who came into our lives. As we continue to consciously work through things as a family we've had to learn what direct communication means, how not to take it personally, and address our own inner issues. This is a jam-packed episode with lots of laughs! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

This week, I share another one of Kellie's Shorts and I'm talking about parenting, popular jargon, and what it meant for me to become aware of myself and my issues while I parented over the years. My kids vetted this before I published it, so I could get their feedback. We will be uploading our family podcast soon, so stay tuned! 

Today, I'm sharing something that resonated with me about being authentic and how it can mean different things to different people depending where you are at in your life. Would love to hear your thoughts!
