What do you say about yourself when no one is watching? If you're anything like me, it's not very nice.
Today, I am sharing 3 ways we can change the way we talk to ourselves to be more positive and up lifting.

A couple of weeks ago, I flew to Columbus, Ohio, to attend a women empowerment conference called Next Level You LIVE, put on by my friend and mentor, Jenna Klopfenstein!
It. Was. Hands. Down. Life. Changing. 🔥
She challenged us to think about WHO is the Next Level YOU… What does she look like? What does she sound like? How does she dress? Who does she hang out with? Who IS she?
Today, I share with you the ONE word that kept coming up for me and what that means for me going forward.
I also want to challenge YOU to think about WHO the next level YOU is and share her with me, so I can root you on!

Girl! I am sooo excited you are here today for this amazing back porch chat…
I look up to this woman so much and am pumped to bring her to you to share her wisdom all about finding who YOU are because if the dream is in you, it is for you, all while creating boundaries with your work and mom life because BOTH are sacred.
I’ve had the opportunity to see her speak live twice, and I’ve had the honor of meeting her both times, and she is incredible. She is such a calm and strong presence and breathes life into the people around her.
Amber Lilyestrom's accomplishments are BIG, but most importantly, she is a Mom of two, and her superpower is balancing it all in a graceful and soul-honoring way.
Prepare your heart, my friend… She brings the fire and all the love.

As busy moms, we’re constantly on the go. We take care of our families, work, and household chores, leaving very little time for ourselves. And when we do finally have a few moments to relax, it’s common to feel guilty for not using that time to be productive.
But here’s the thing, it’s okay to take a break and do nothing. In fact, it’s essential for our well-being. Today, I want to share some tips that have helped me let go of the guilt and fully relax.
I can't wait to hear your biggest takeaway!

When was the last time you've tried something new?
The majority of my life, I have been scared to start anything new for fear of looking dumb, what would people think, etc... But honestly... Does that way of thinking serve me?
I've been wanting to go to an adult gymnastics class for months, but 1. I was too afraid of looking dumb on the floor to even try to find one... BUT one day, one fell into my lap.
I sat on it for a few days, in fear. My body is sooo much different than it was the last time I was in a gym and the last time I tumbled... What if I can't do anything anymore? What if I get hurt?
Today, I am taking you inside my thoughts as I wrestled with the idea of taking a gymnastics class almost 30 years since the last one I took.
What did I decide to do? How did I feel about that decision? What is the next step?
I am also encouraging and empowering YOU to do those things that God has placed on your heart, even if you're scared to start!
I can't wait to hear what you think!

Start Scared is the podcast for busy mamas who love their kids but feel like they've lost themselves in the chaos of motherhood. If you're ready to rediscover the woman you are outside of…
Together, we'll tackle the lies we tell ourselves, smash through the excuses holding us back, and gain the clarity we need to start showing up for ourselves unapologetically. Because, Mama, you matter—not just as a mom, but as the incredible woman God created you to be.
It’s time to take that first step toward finding yourself again. Are you ready to Start Scared?
