So this time, I turned on my recorder and turned it into a bonus podcast for you all.

Why do we overcomplicate so much? 

Keep things simple. Sounds like that should be an easy task, right? But so many of us struggle with simplicity because we are not designed for it, or rather, we are, but it is ingrained in us to overcomplicate almost everything. Because if it seems too simple, we must not be working hard enough. And if we are not working hard enough, how can we measure success. And if we can’t measure our success, that must mean we are failing. And if we are failing, we must not be good enough. By the way, none of this is true. In my opinion, it is a big reason why most days we feel like mad hatter madness going on in our mind, body and soul. It has been beaten into our minds that we must hustle, work hard, and burn ourselves out if we want to achieve our goals.

If this is resonating with you, I have been there too. But it doesn't have to be this way. Listen and begin to make simplicity your new norm.

In today's episode I'm answering a couple of questions from listeners. I am talking about worry, fear and doubt, and how to deal with these totally normal emotions Contagiously Positive girl style. 

In today's podcast I'm talking about how becoming hyper focused on your goals and desires helps you remove any negative labels that other people give you. Meaning, when someone labels you as something, instead of letting it become a limiting belief, flip it around and reframe it. For example, "Too Happy = In Your Purpose" and "Only Talks About = Focused" . These are two labels that I get that needed a reframe and I talk about it in this podcast. 

Listen in to learn a few steps you can take today to become hyper focused on who you want to be, and what you want to do and have. UNAPOLOGETICALLY!

“Guilt is to the spirit what pain is to the body.”

-Eldar David A. Bednar-

In today's episode I am talking about releasing guilt and shame. Shame is like emotional termite for our soul. If we let it in it will eat away and take down the structure of our home - our mind, body and soul. 

The person we guilt and shame the most is ourselves. I see many people holding themselves hostage to a mistake they made. 

To fully unleash our inner contagiously positive, we have to accept ourselves.  And that means examining things about ourselves, like the judgements we have of ourselves, like shame. Shame is one of those things that holds us hostage to our past. If we are shackled to our mistakes and the should’a, could’a, would’a of our lives, how can we expect to feel free?

In today's episode, I'm sharing one tool that I use daily to remind myself to be present and not freak out about the future and all the things I want, but are not here yet. 

When we become overwhelmed by all our goals, and start to stress out when things are not going according to our plan, we tend to hold on so tightly that we become paralyzed by fear. But when we practice letting go of our timing, we are able to allow more positive energy to flow towards us, which then allows us to achieve what we want with less effort. 

What do you do when you don’t get what you need? 

In today's podcast episode, I'm talking about how I reacted when I needed something and I didn’t receive it. Because I didn’t receive it, and I didn’t understand why, I sort of – kind of – definitely reacted in a way I wished I hadn’t. 

In this episode I am breaking down what I believe I could have done differently to process my emotions in a less pressure cooker is about to blow way, and actually have both of us leave the conversation getting what we need. 

I talk about...

Recognizing your triggers.
