The Simplifiers Podcast

Thrilled to present another all-star episode from The Simplifiers Podcast vault, this round, we are talking all about how to make more time in life. Yes, please! Now more than ever, we need this… kids are going back-to-school, the world is reopening again, and we're organizing our lives in a new way. It's all about re-prioritizing your schedule and dusting off the routines that keep you thriving.

My special guest today is Nache Snow and she's simplifying how to organize your life and make more time. We spoke in September 2020 and so much of what she shared back then is incredibly relevant to us all now. It's time to get back to the basics, do less, and give ourselves permission to (truly) rest more to recharge and flip the script on productivity altogether.

Here's how.

We tackle all aspects of it, including:

• what's working for her with time management through the pandemic and with life being so upside down this year

• how to take an inventory of where your time goes through this week ahead

• why batching your tasks will help you make more time in your life… here's how to do it

• what happens every time you look back on your day and say, "that task took way longer than I expected!!?" - what's going on there?

• …and ultimately, she shares the very best, practical tools she uses to help her stay accountable to her daily schedule and keep on track.

You're doing a great job. Keep going... and remember what brings you joy and helps you remember who you are, deep down inside. Focus here first and when you make time for these experiences, your life expands exponentially as well.

It's time to #DoTheThing!

Stepping back out into the world might require a supercharge of your self-confidence. Things are opening back up again (ever so slowly) and the world is finding its pace once again. But are you?

Thrilled to present another all-star episode from The Simplifiers Podcast vault, this round, we are talking all about how to supercharge your self-confidence featuring a recent conversation with author Kate Eckman. We spoke in April 2021 and that conversation really stuck in my mind for ages afterward. She believes that when we take good care of our inner world, our outer world takes care of itself. All of this is rooted in research-backed strategies in neuroscience and whole-person coaching, with a specific focus on all three parts equally: mind-body-spirit.

Here's how.

We tackle all aspects of it, including:

• Why she believes we are prone to a lack of self-confidence these days, especially as women… What's underneath it all, hidden away and keeping us from what we really want in life

• Society puts such an emphasis on our physical bodies, to lose weight and stay healthy… why she believes it's time to focus on "shedding excess emotional and spiritual pounds" instead

• What "The Full Spirit Workout" is and the ten steps that'll supercharge your self-confidence from the inside out:

• Stretch your comfort zone

• Lift yourself up

• Feel the burn

• Strengthen your core confidence

• Build your emotional muscles

• Boost your mental metabolism

• Step up your spiritual stamina

• Embrace your endorphins

• Rock the freedom freestyle

• Cool down with inner calm

• How to strengthen your core confidence through trust and the 5 Ps

• Presence

• Patience

• Purpose

• Preparation

• Practice

• …and ultimately, how to boost your "mental metabolism" to help you shift through any mindset blocks and help you see opportunities where you once saw insurmountable hurdles.

I'm so thrilled if this is the first time you've heard of Kate Eckman and her work because I'm willing to bet you'll really resonate with her story and what she's learned along the way.

If you've struggled with the feeling of "not enough-ness" in your work or life, my hope is that you find the answer to break free from that vicious cycle today. And more importantly, that you remember, the key to everything you desire and the ability to supercharge your self-confidence is actually within you right here, right now. It's closer than you think…

If you've been in a rut lately, maybe it's time to rewire your thinking patterns. Our brains are a fascinating thing… We are so quick to believe that our thoughts are all real. That what swirls in our brain is the truth that your entire perception of your life experience is built upon. But what if it isn't fully true?

My special all-star guest today is author Thomas Sterner and he's simplifying how to rewire your thinking patterns. You'll gain a better understanding of your conscious and unconscious thinking to open your mindset to new ways of perceiving what's happening in your life and all around you.

Here's how.

• Why humans are "victims of automated thinking" vs realizing that we are the master creator of our thoughts.

• How to better understand the language of your subconscious thoughts.

• What "deliberate thinking" is and why he believes it can give us emotional freedom.

• How to tell the difference between a reaction and a response.

• …And ultimately, he shares a concept called "Heartmath" and how it can help you to effectively communicate with others.

When you peel back the layers of the onion, you realize that how you perceive what's happening to you in your life is literally affecting every other aspect of how you move through life. Even the notion of "what's happening TO you" vs "what's happening FOR you" is one to take a moment to consider. Are you always on the defense, with your guard up and very rarely letting people (and opportunities) in?

Today, we are talking all about how to harness your inner power - what it is, how to tap into it and how it'll help you gain more confidence no matter what situation you are in. And I mean, really… who doesn't want more of that, right??!

My all-star special guest today is leadership coach Wendy C. Williams and she's simplifying how to harness your inner power. She advises businesses all around the world, training leaders to tap into their own source of personal power. Through this practice of understanding that "everything is energy" - her clients have gained confidence, learn how to show up with authenticity and as a result, they build and lead highly productive teams.

Here's how.

We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:

• How she defines what "inner power" is and is NOT - she busts the misconceptions some have about power and goes much deeper than surface level

• spoiler alert: authentic power is not about dominating others… it's time to deprogram the patriarchy, friends!

• What she means by "acquiring energy eyes" in order to read the room and also read yourself, energetically and how you show up in a space

• One super simple, practical way you can harness your inner power when you are about to do something big and scary in your work, such as a big pitch meeting or having a tough conversation

• …and ultimately, what the difference is between your ego and your soul and how to communicate between the two for greater alignment and a foundation of inner strength.

This conversation was such a delight! And about halfway into it, she led me through an exercise where I needed to get a bit vulnerable and share a question I've had on my heart for a while now to gain deeper clarity in my own work trajectory…

I decided to leave this bit in because well, we're all human and I hope seeing a little bit behind my "Wizard of Oz" curtain was of value to you, especially if you're contemplating the same. Friends, we learn together and so, if you're here now, it means you and I were put together in perfect, Divine timing. So, I hope this episode provides a fresh perspective for you, especially if you've been feeling a little stuck lately or have lost your mojo somewhere along the way.

Here's another all-star episode that I love so much and wanted to share with you today. As we round out this month's theme of "self-discipline" I think this topic is the perfect one to help us bring it all home.

Today, we are talking all about how to finish that next big project… no, really. Done, finished, tick it off the list, stick a fork in it, and be DONE. But the problem is… most projects we start, we never finish them! Why is that??!

My special guest today is author Bridgit Dengel Gaspard and she's simplifying how to finish that next big project. You see, she's got a theory that the reason we mysteriously stop within sight of the finish line is actually because not all parts of you want what you think you want. In fact, these sub-personalities inside you have a distorted loyalty to your core negative beliefs and that's what is keeping you stuck.

Here's how to squash all of that.

• Why driven, go-getter, type-A kind of people tend to lose steam just before completing a big goal in their life

• What the "Final 8th" is and how to overcome any self-sabotage when you're working towards your goals personally or professionally

• How to speak to your inner selves for clarity and insight through a technique called voice dialogue

• Why it's just as important to uncover our "core negative beliefs" as well as your core values to get at the root of things

• … and ultimately, what the key difference is between a person who achieves their goals easily vs. those who don't.

If you've ever bought a book or an online course you haven't finished… invested in a mastermind and then fizzled out halfway through… or started a DIY project and left it to collect dust, my friend, this episode (that originally aired in September 2020) is especially for you.

You have the power to create the life you really want to live, if only you simply remembered what's possible… and make Bold Asks for what you need, want, and desire. Today is a fresh start and a new beginning.

You can do it, I believe in you… it's time to simplify!

It's time to #DoTheThing
