The Well Aligned Life Podcast // LIFE LESSONS & BUSINESS BREAKTHROUGHS for FEMALE ENTREPRENEURS

Wrapping up Season 2 of the pod! YAY! Great guests and looking forward to Season 3!

Season 3 will resume towards the end of April and we will begin with a discussion about creating a Side Hustle. If you have any interest in creating a Side Hustle for PT income or transitioning the SH into a full-time gig -- listen in!

Now back to the title of this episode. This past weekend my husband and I went back to Iowa to visit family for the holiday weekend. Over the weekend, we went to see a theater production of 42nd Street at Drake University. Shout out to Drake University Bulldogs!

If you are ever in the Des Moines area and seeking great entertainment check out Drake University's theater production calendar    /https://www.drake.edu/theatre/productions/

The weekend became very eye-opening when I decided to go to a Tai Chi class with my 80 y/o mom. Over the last several years she has stepped out of her comfort zone and I'm thrilled for her! 

Tai Chi has always been on my list to try and it took my mom pushing me to go. The outcome was that I loved it and plan to take classes in Colorado where I live. 

There is no age limit on learning something new - never!

Lastly, I will be offering 1:1 coaching beginning in late spring/early summer as well as group coaching. Details soon!

Start sooner and it's never too late to start! 

     

Thanks for listening!

Don’t resist the upgrade! 💜

As I look back on life situations and how I’ve repeatedly responded in life and resisted surrendering, resisting the upgrade.

It’s shown up in every area of my LIFE. Even most recently I catch myself resisting the upgrade. How many times has this happened to you?

We keep pressing forward even when the path says “no”. Get it y’all that surrendering to the natural flow of life allows the magic of natural flow to move through your life.

Sit with the surrender and don’t resist the opportunity to upgrade your LIFE! 🤩
This allows you to show up differently to situations and can have an impactful effect on your life.

And remember, all situations in LIFE are temporary and impermanent. Follow your intuition!

Thanks for listening!

Need TIPS for creating a POSITIVE tone in your day?
 
Frequently, the element of "play" tends to slip away from our adult lives. In our childhood, play held a central role in our daily existence, but as we age, the demands of achieving more often take priority.

I encourage you to integrate "play" into your daily routine. PLAY can manifest in simple activities like painting, drawing, or taking an alternate route to work. Anything that introduces novelty and allows you to observe differences in your surroundings qualifies as "play." This practice opens up your creativity and enhances your INTUITION.

Another crucial reminder is to embrace moments of quietness in the morning and establish a routine that doesn't involve checking your phone, email, or social media. Starting your day with negative news can set an unfavorable tone for the entire day!

Thanks for listening!

Well, it's often said you should learn from the best, following the path of the SUCCESSFUL FEMALE entrepreneur, and I have the perfect podcast guest for you today!

Carla Abate from REBEL ROOTS NUTRITION is a Nutrition Therapy Master board certified in holistic nutrition (BCHN), BA in Psychology from Naropa University, Master's in Counseling from the University of Phoenix, Postpartum Doula Certification through CAPPA https://www.instagram.com/naropau/
https://www.instagram.com/ntischool/

 
The path to HOLISTIC NUTRITION for Carla came the way it often does for so many practitioners in the WELLNESS FIELD, as a result of her own health journey and skepticism around the adequacy of the standard medical model to address her concerns. The rebel in her business name Rebel Roots implies this questioning of the status quo and conventional medical paradigm which often fails us by ignoring the role of nutrition altogether. Sometimes we just have to lean into our inner rebel and push the boundaries when something does not add up or make sense. We need to become our own advocates, do the research ourselves, and challenge the established "norms." 

Now, I want you to listen in about halfway through the episode where we discuss the strategy of GETTING STARTED SOONER with your new CAREER journey. No matter the path, try a beta test method, and share the idea with a few friends and family members, 6 months to a year will go by no matter what - utilize that time to try out the idea that keeps coming back to you!

We also discuss saying "YES" more to things within your career scope. This opens up new pathways so you don't get STUCK in the same patterns of thinking! Follow your path of INTUITION.

Topics covered:

• Saying Yes to more
• The importance of networking
• Getting started sooner in your career journey!
• Marketing your business

 
Carla shares MARKETING tips that she uses in her business to make it a thriving business model.

Hello, friends!

This EPISODE is jam-packed with valuable insights!!

Gina Oliver is a former 3rd grade teacher turned nomadic entrepreneur. As the co-founder of Wave Enterprise Co, she helps FEMALE-OWNED WELLNESS brands elevate and share their message online. Drop by and say hi to her on Linkedin or Instagram!

Why I love this episode so much on CAREER TRANSITIONS...

Gina shares that it is important to try things that scare you, even if you choose just one scary goal for the year.  Sometimes you need to take a step even though it may not be your dream step, but take a step to get to the dream.  This includes saying "yes" to things you may not typically want to do when it pertains to making a career transition.

The one other nugget of insight on today's episode is when Gina talked about researching grants for women when seeking to fund a new business, What a great reminder for us all!

Have you considered turning a yoga practice into a full-time career or SIDE HUSTLE?

On today's episode, we talk with Heather Lindemann. Heather shares her insightful journey of her path to becoming a YOGA teacher.

Heather Lindemann, is an Ayurveda Wellness Coach and yoga teacher who is passionate about tending the sacred spaces of our lives. Whether it’s the body, mind, or our living spaces, where we dwell allows us access to wisdom and healing. And when we lovingly tend our dwellings with care, nourishment, and delight, life becomes beautiful.

She earned her yoga certification with Erica Kaufman, who she considers one of her yoga  mentors,  https://lilayoga.com/about-erica-kaufman/, and restorative teacher training with  https://www.judithhansonlasater.com/, along with studying Ayurveda Wellness where she earned her Ayurveda Wellness Coach certification at The Shatki School  https://theshaktischool.com/ayurveda-school/

She advises when beginning your yoga career to focus on finding a 200-hour Teacher Training that applies the basic foundations, and from there see what LIGHTS YOU UP about the practice and let those areas of the yoga practice become your wheelhouse of expertise. 

We also discuss MARKETING TIPS that could be utilized by any business owner, such as creating a newsletter with "snackable" content that doesn't overwhelm your followers.

At the end of the episode, we discuss our shared love for a beauty product, the Heritage Store Rose Water Spray, https://heritagestore.com/products/rosewater which I refer to as my stress-free spritz in a bottle!
