February 29, 2024 47. Less Stress in the Kitchen with Kathy Davis
Cooking and eating are daily tasks-- but not always enjoyable for all, and can even be stressful for some (Me!)
In this episode, we chat about a 4 step meal planning process to be more intentional and have less stress with meal prepping, planning and cooking. We also dive into incorporating more plants into your meals-- even with other picky eaters.
Kathy Davis is a plant-based lifestyle and mindset coach, a Meal Planning Expert, the CEO of VegInspired, and the author of three cookbooks and a co-author of one personal development book.
Kathy is on a mission to educate, inspire, and empower others about the power of plant-based eating in living thriving and successful lives. She operates on two primary mottos: 1) Eat More Plants and 2) Intention over Perfection.

Kathy has been eating and creating vegan meals for more than nine years. Over the past 4 years, she shifted her daily habits to follow a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. She experienced amazing results: renewed energy, 50-pound weight loss and maintenance, a newfound sense of joy, and a healthier mind and body! One tool that she used consistently to make plant-based eating a sustainable way of living was meal planning. She founded the Meal Plan Accountability Club to help others become efficient and effective meal planners.

Kathy is dedicated to providing women (and men) with the resources to Eat More Plants. She is eager to guide others on their journey so that they can make a more significant impact in the world.

February 15, 2024 45. Love vs. People Pleasing
Unconditional love is telling someone the truth and loving them no matter how they respond and loving yourself no matter how you respond.
People pleasing is lying to yourself, being inauthentic and/or lying to other people-- and that is not love.
Listen for more on how to distinguish between love and people pleasing and how to reduce the people pleasing tendencies and have more love in your life.

February 08, 2024 44. Feeling Love and Being Loveable
Feeling love, like other feelings is an inside job. It's about YOU.
It's also a skillset and a choice to choose to feel love, regardless of what others are saying or doing. Why would you choose unconditional love? Because YOU want to feel love inside of you.

I invite you to listen with an open mind as I talk about those loving feelings and how you can bring more love into your life- regardless of other people.

High achievers, people pleasers and perfectionists are often looking for others to notice, appreicate and validate their words and actions.
When that doesn't happen, or doesn't happen as often as you would like, it's common to feel unnoticed, unappreciated, frustrated or even resentful.
This episode will help you find ways to feel appreciated-- regardless of others.
(Hint: Your feelings come from your thinking, not what others say and do.)

January 11, 2024 40. No One Else "Makes" You Feel
Did you grow up hearing (or saying) "don't make mommy mad," or "you made me so sad?" Or some phrase where someone else made you feel a certain way. It's pretty common-- but it's not true and not helpful.
Your feelings come from how you interepret words and actions and the same is true for others. You are responsible for how you are feeling-- and that's a good thing. Because you have the ability to shift to different feelings then too.
This is a tough concept for people pleasers-- who believe they make others feel a certain way and will turn themselves inside out trying to make others feel a certain way.

Listen in for where this comes from, how you can begin owning your feelings and why this is a key awareness for shifting away from people pleasing thinking.

December 28, 2023 38. Values Based Goals & Resolutions
When it’s time to choose a resolution that will actually work, we need to use our values & priorities to guide that process. This is likely different from what you have tried before because normally we think of what we need to do better or how we need to be better and usually that means we’re actually navigating from lack, guilt or shame.
When your goals and resolutions align with your values you are more likely to stick with it and actually make progress towards it or achieve it. Listen to this episode for a new way to choose and plan for a successful New Year’s Resolution, or any goal.
