TIME is the number one reason people tell me they can’t get things done or can’t do stuff that they enjoy. And now that we do in this time of crisis, we’re finding different reasons for why we still can’t do things now. 

In this episode, I’d just like to highlight how we tend to use time as our scapegoat. We often say we don’t have the ‘time’ when we mean it is not just our priority. 

Now that we have this change in time and structure, it would be wonderful if we use this as an opportunity to look at our lives, set new intentions, and plan for our new goals.

Other life-changing stuff you will learn in this episode…

• Using this time to evaluate things in your life that align with your values and those that are not
• Assessing outside expectations versus what your actual priorities are
• How to declutter your mind and surroundings
• Creative ways to use this time for personal growth
• PLUS some home schooling tips
• Activities for your family and kids during quarantine

There’s so many many wonderful things can rise after this if we make the conscious effort to improve our lives. And I am looking forward to seeing your rise above this situation, too.

So tell me, where do you want to focus your life right now?

At this time, each of us has different situations, and each of us are having a hard time. But let me tell you this: no matter the situation, focusing so much on what’s ‘hard’ is dangerous.

If you keep telling yourself the situation has been hard for you, it’s going to keep being hard for you. And if you can cultivate the grateful attitude, you’re going to see more of that.

So instead of focusing on what’s ‘hard’ in our situation, why don’t we see the opportunities we can gain from this?

• Ideas on how to find opportunities in losses
• Things we could be grateful at in our current situation
• What you could adjust in your family routines for each of your personal development
• Why slowing down is important at this time
• Using this time to realign yourself to your values and what matters to you
• Using “social distancing’ to your advantage

With the state of the world right now, this meditation is a helpful resource for you to come back to over and over again to ground and calm yourself. 

Remember, you might not be able to control the circumstances but you can maintain your inner grounded state.

Loving yourself is probably the most common advice given to us women, but is also the most difficult to follow— especially when your body size and other features do not fit well to the ‘social standards.’

And because of our self-limiting thoughts, we also limit ourselves from doing the things that we want to do. I invited self love coach Shafonne in this podcast to give us reminders for when we feel insecure about our bodies or our image in general.

• Dealing with your loud, inner mean girl
• How you can easily accept and love your flaws
• The surprising ripple effects of your confidence
• Step by step layers towards loving yourself
• Overcoming social ‘standards’ and others’ opinions
• How to love your image without looking arrogant (differentiating arrogance with confidence)
