But how do you just START? Sometimes we're so paralyzed by fear that we don't even realize we're in our own way most of the time. It's time to embrace the fact that you don't have it all figured out but this is your permission slip to know you DON'T NEED to have it all figured out. Because surprise! We all don't know what we're doing most of the time. The key here is that you just have to start. You have to start your blog, your podcast, your side gig, your book, your weight loss journey, your small group. Whatever is on our dream list- it's never going to get done by waiting for the "perfect time" or by thinking about it. In this episode we talk about what it means to walk in the unknown and why thats a normal thing.

We've all been in that "funk"...you know, where you might be procrastinating or pushing off that project you said you wanted to start; or getting back into the gym, or getting together with your old friend; or meal prepping for the week. The motivation just isn't there! So, the big question is- how do you stay motivated? Where does motivation even come from? And HOW do I make it last forever? Well, this episode is for you! But you might be surprised at Arissa's answer because she tells you NOT to rely on motivation all the time. Tune in to hear what works even better that motivation.

So you've been waiting, hoping, wishing, asking for something and....nothing. Feels like you've been patient and the thing or season that you want to happen so bad just isn't coming as quickly as you want or expected. I've been there- and it doesn't feel fair and that might lead to feelings of disappointment and frustration. In this episode, we talk about how to make the most out of your waiting season and search your heart to remember the waiting season is just as important as what you're hoping for. Arissa talks about how to even check your intentions around what you're asking for because being present in your current season might offer you so much more if you're open to experiencing it.

Live to work or work to live? How about ENJOYING LIFE while ENJOYING what you do?! Sounds too good to be true, I know. Work is something we all have and it can be easy to attach out identity and sometimes our self worth to. How well we are performing, how fast we can get promoted, how much we get paid, etc. But in this episode Arissa talks about putting purpose back into your work, getting creative with your projects by utilizing your gifts, and how to remember you are valued so much more than by what your job title is. It's important to work hard and have personal and professional goals but you also have one life to live and this episode is a reminder to not let that pass you by.

Do you feel like sometimes you get stuck in comparison? There is this fear that takes over from you doing that thing that you've always wanted to, or you don't speak up because you're afraid of what people will say, or you're stuck in not taking action because there is a lack of confidence you don't know how to shake off. You're not alone. And I completely understand feeling fear take over isn't fun. In this episode Arissa walks you through how to get out of this limiting mindset. Because you can gain the confidence, security, and boldness to get out of your head and into your life!
