We grew up surrounded by people who claimed their way of life was the ONLY way and judged anyone who strayed from the path. If you weren’t having kids at 20, you were a failure. If you weren’t a stay at home mom you were a sinner.

There’s a difference between following a religion and sticking with old cultural traditions.

I can be a business woman and a believer.

Travelling and investing in experiences doesn’t make me a sinner.

It’s sad that a community who claims to know the love of Christ is so skilled at making people feel unwanted. It’s even worse knowing that there are total ‘heathens’ out there who are better at showing love than you.

For me, the problem was never religeon, the problem isn’t Christianity. God never let me down, it was the people I grew up with who claimed to be Christians. It’s the specific community I grew up in that made me bitter.

If I get hate for this post I’ll still be content knowing that I spoke the truth. If I get disowned, just know I disowned you first.

I walked away because you made me feel unwanted. During that time, I’ve built a community around myself that genuinely loves me. Some of them are Christians, some of them are not.

Religion was never the problem, you were.

I speak out not to spread hate, but to show others like me that they’re not unlovable, they’re just looking in the wrong place for love.

People don't just break the mold for the sake of breaking the mold, it's usually because it's holding them back from something greater, or more aligned with them. 

This episode is rather short and to the point, but we're going to be covering two things:

1. What is your vision for your life?

2. How will breaking the mold get you closer to it?

In today's episode, I'm going to talk about my journey through the foster care system and how it triggered my battle between hyper-independence and people-pleasing. 

My hope is that you walk away from this episode with some ways to combat people pleasing in your life through establishing your own set of values and unbreakable rules.

Every entrepreneur needs a vision, but when it comes to ADHD there is a reason why you can't afford to miss this step. 

Your vision is what keeps you from turning your business into another hyper fixation. There is nothing worse than pouring time and money into something, only to realize that you're no longer interested in continuing on. Now, you might think this is typical of all entrepreneurs. We all get the ups and downs in our business, but hyper fixation is something you can't control. 

I know what it's like to go to bed with racing thoughts about my business and then wake up with absolutely no desire to continue on.

I think it's something all ADHDpreneurs fear: "What if my business is just another hyper fixation?"

This is why having a vision is so important. If you can discover the reason why you started your business in the first place, it can help overcome the hyper fixation. 

Let's talk about it in this episode!

It's something everyone wants, and it makes you wonder if there's enough of it to go around. I'm talking about standing out from the crowd, or success, as we like to call it. 

If you're like me, you'll go through Instagram looking for inspiration, and you'll come across these accounts that have thousands of followers. "How the heck did they do that?" you wonder. 

After all, you have literally tried everything and nothing seems to be working. 

Here's the thing though. 

You need to stop using other people's strategies to grow your business and stand out. 

You can't stand out by doing what others are doing. 

This is why you need a mission statement, to help you define who you are helping and why you are different.

If you're having a hard time motivating people to engage with your offer, then this one is for you! 

Sometimes, we can get so caught up in the logistics of what we are selling that we forget to see the bigger picture. 

What I need you to do is take a step back and see it from your ideal buyer's point of view. What are they looking for? Do they understand how your offer will get them to where they want to go? 

In today's podcast, I'm going to walk you through how to tweak your offer so that it looks more compelling. If you're thinking to yourself: "this sounds great, but my offer is too complicated to make it interesting" then this podcast is exactly what you need to hear right now!

This podcast is all about authenticity and why you need it to stand out from the crowd. 

Gone are the days of highlight reels and looking perfect online. 

People are sick of it. 

They want honesty, raw emotion, and someone/ something to relate with.

Social media has made us one of the loneliest and most discontented generations that have ever walked this earth. 

Yes, we may have it good in terms of technology and medical advancements, but that doesn't change the fact that we are constantly looking for validation from people we have never even met before. 

When we don't get the likes and comments we're looking for, we immediately begin to wonder what is wrong with us. 

If you want to break through the noise, stop posting for validation, likes, and comments. 

Create posts that inspire others, and give them a place where they feel respected validated. 

Show them your frustration with running a business. 

Show them that you don't always have it together and how hard you try to keep it together when the rest of your life is falling apart. 

Check out this podcast episode to learn how authenticity can help you stand out from the crowd!

“If There Is No Struggle, There Is No Success” - Frederick Douglas

Nobody likes to struggle. Nobody chooses to deliberately put themselves in a situation where they know what's going to be painful or uncertain.

But unfortunately, life has a way of doing that for us. If you are an entrepreneur, you deliberately choose that kind of life and continue to chose it every day. When you started your business, you knew it wasn't going to be easy.

Maybe you didn't know it was going to be as hard as it is, but you still chose the difficult route. For that, I say, kudos to you. You chose to take an already difficult life and make it harder, just so you could come out the other side all the better.

I get it though. It’s really tough, and sometimes you need a little (or a lot) of motivation.

Check out today's podcast episode for some motivation for the year ahead!
