Fear is a normal (and important) part of the human experience - but it can also hold us back from doing the things that we truly desire. This week I am joined by  Life and Empowerment Coach Lyndsay Hume for a conversation on how we can become our future self, without letting fear and excuses keep us stuck. 

In the episode, Lyndsay and I talk about:

• How to visualize your future self
• Taking small steps to embody your future self
• Why time & money don't have to hold you back
• The role people-pleasing often has in keeping us stuck
• The function of fear in humans & what we can do to overcome it

A little about our guest:
Lyndsay Hume is a trained therapist turned certified Empowerment Coach for women who want to live out their purpose, create extraordinary lives they love AND make an impact in the world. She believes that the world is in desperate need of healing right now, and that we are in a state of chaos and that there is a huge shift happening - she sees women playing a large role in creating a better society than the one we have right now. Lyndsay knows that when women pursue their purpose (or, the thing they were gifted to do on this earth) they are in alignment with their higher self and their true desires and therefore they create abundance not only in their own life, but in the world. They inspire and impact other people and that ripple effect continues on and on….

We all have needs - but sometimes, figuring out what needs are going unmet can be a challenge. In this episode, I'm sharing my own experience discovering of learning how to check in with myself about my needs, and helping you do the same. What it comes down to: Moms need time for themselves.

When our needs are met, we are able to not only show up as fuller versions of ourselves for our children, but we also live more fulfilled lives. Checking in with yourself matters. Your needs matter.

This one is for the mom who is wanting more, whatever that "more" is to her. I am joined by Nadine Stille, a recovering stressed-out mama who supports moms who want to ditch the daily grind and bring more joy into their lives - both at home and at work. We are talking about how to become more energized in motherhood and lead a more fulfilling life. 

In this conversation Nadine and I talk about:

• Wanting "more," and what more means to different moms
• Why movement towards goals and dreams can feel scary as a mom
• Learning to listen to the whispers of your heart through the noise in your head
• Deciding which balls can be dropped
• Cultivating more energy into your motherhood & life

A little about our guest:
As a recovering stressed-out Mama who was constantly trying to balance society's expectations to be a perfect mom and an ambitious career woman, Nadine Stille walks alongside moms who realize that they are taking care of everyone else 24/7 but not themselves, aren’t confident in their abilities, battling with Imposter Syndrome, and who's negative emotions like stress and guilt have taken hold of them. The pressure that moms feel is relentless, unique to moms, and is definitely unsustainable, draining moms of joy. Nadine is here to show moms a more balanced and joy-filled way. She helps busy moms realize how powerful and amazing they already are. Together, they'll focus on what works for them specifically for long lasting, sustainable changes that make for a joy-filled life and a fulfilled career. Together with her kiddo and hubby, she lives in Vancouver, Canada. She's lived all over the world, in fact, Canada is her 6th country and she just can’t get enough of these mountains and ocean views! When she's not having fun playing with (or running after) her Little One, you might find her taking a moment for herself with a romance novel.

There's a trend I've been seeing in the online space among mom influencers about how we should stop talking about how hard motherhood is because it makes it feel harder. As someone who has studied the sociological context of motherhood and built a platform based in part on conversations about the challenges of motherhood, I am responding with my own thoughts.

I'm sharing why we actually should continue to talk about how hard motherhood and parenting can be, as well as some of my own experiences of how openness about the challenges can be freeing. Plus, I'm giving a little behind the scenes about how bedtime & sleep is currently going at my house (and I'll give you a hint: it's not great).
