Have you ever taken someone else’s actions or something they said personally? Made assumptions about their intentions? We often think things are about us when sometimes they are not. In this episode, I dive into why we do this and examples that we can all relate to. This is another thing that creates unnecessary clutter in our mind and while we may not be able to control the initial thought, we can control how long we let it stay. I share how I shift my thoughts to remove this clutter from my mind.

A lot of people are excited about 2020 being over but what is really going to change at midnight? In this week’s episode, I share how I’m using this New Year’s as a checkpoint for 3 things to help me go into 2021 pumped and with a recharged mindset. We can’t make life go back to how it was before the pandemic but we can still create change for ourselves in this upcoming year. Listen in as I unpack how to make sure 2021 doesn’t become a repeat of or a dragged out 2020 for all of us. The only thing that changes at midnight is our mindset.

Do you ever feel like some of the Self Love stuff on Social Media is too cheesy or fluff or annoying? Ha - I have! In this episode, I cut through (not “the”) cheese to get to what truly matters and how a lot of things in our life revolve around this topic. It’s easy to ignore, dismiss or go on auto-pilot with this topic but being aware and intentional about self love can help create positivity in so many areas of our life. I talk through the real-life application of loving yourself & how it can manifest in our life.

We have all had minor interactions with people that make us ask “why did I do that?” or “why did I say it that way?” Maybe you said or did something without really thinking it through. We all do that. Have you ever replayed the tape of you doing that “thing” to the other person 10, 20, 30 times in head? Beating yourself up everytime? Yes, yes and yes! In this episode I talk about why it doesn’t need to be this way and how we can remove this negativity that takes up space in our mind quickly.

This year I have witnessed one too many people I love deal with really hard hard things. Years ago I had explored the question we all have asked at some point - “why do bad things happen to good people” but lately I have been feeling my faith get shaky. I knew I needed to remind myself of the beliefs I have held around this question for many years. In this episode, I revisit my beliefs & how we shift from the “WHY did this happen” to “how do I want to choose to respond & react in this moment.”

On the surface deflecting compliments may not seem like a big deal. Many say it’s just about a way to show humility. That’s what I thought for years until I sat down and unpacked this. This becomes an important topic when you realize that how you respond may actually reflect what YOU think of yourself. I talk through why it’s important to receive compliments with open arms and how this can be a tool to help us see parts of ourselves that we haven’t embraced yet.

In this episode, I talk with my former CEO who took his start up from a garage to being worth a little under $1B by always keeping people & positivity at the forefront. We talk about conscious leadership where uplifting others and seeing them on a “soul” level yields much more long term success than focusing on profits. We talk about the current consciousness level in the business world. We touch on how meetings, reacting to mistakes & motivation can look a lot different when leading with love.

You may be confident in all aspects of your life but somehow parenting can manage to bring out self doubt. Have you ever wondered why that is? In this week’s episode I talk about why this happens to us. It is normal and we all feel it as parents. I share what I have done to help shake the insecurities & temptation to compare because I don’t want to spend 20 years of my life in a place of fear. I’m sure most parents would agree!

If believing in ourselves starts with others believing in us, does that become unreliable? I don’t think so. In this episode, I share how others believing in us can help us find more confidence in who we are. We all need this external support to clearly see who we truly are & I will help you reflect on how impactful this has probably been for you in your own life. I also talk about what happens when we do this for others & how we should never underestimate the power of our compliments or encouragement.

Isn’t it funny that every single person makes mistakes yet we are so hard on ourselves as if we are the only ones making them? Mistakes are a part of our lives - at work, at home, with our friends, with our kids. Our mind makes us think we should keep our mistakes safe with us but in this episode I talk about all the reasons why taking responsibility for our mistakes & fessing up is the better route. Our mistakes don’t define us but how we respond can.
