Blocking the laundry man from stepping into my apartment (#boundaries), being crabby with the coworkers again, my girl crush on comedian Jen Kirkman, and other stuff that I can't remember because I recorded this a week ago and I'm sooo sleepy rn!

Literally too tired to add my theme music to this. GOODNIGHT!

I'm a little feisty today. :)

But don't let that stop you from inquiring about my helping you reach your biz/creative goals in May! :) Email me at [email protected] if you have something you're working on and need some structure, mindset help, and accountability. Let me know what you want to create and why the time is NOW that you must (and WILL) do this!

Nude fishnets I bought (I will rock these!) I was wrong - must've been another link that had the pic of stockings + the cool hand/arm chain!! In any case..:

Today I'm coming to you from my floor on my yoga mat with a foam roller.

Back pain is owning my life today and I'm musing on how this could have all been avoided if I had shown my bod a little more love this week by stretching and moving around more. It's all good - just something to think about. :)

If you're interested in learning more about my upcoming program for driven artists and entrepreneurs who want to enjoy the process of doing what they love and checking the stress at the door, shoot me an email at [email protected]  and/or lmk on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/erica.horowitz.90) so I can send you some info when I have it fleshed out. :)

Have a lovely day! Take care of yourself!

As I always say, let's support our legends while they're/we're here! This was mucho dinero for a concert, AND it was a life experience I'll always treasure.

Go do what you love, keep making your "art", whatever that may be, and surround yourself with those who believe in you and wanna see you thriving alongside them.

Thank you for listening!

Throwing caution to the wind. Just showing up in my element and having fun.

What are you creating today?

Peace and love,

Erica

Wow. It's been a LONG time, huh?

Lots of pauses in this one. Talking slow. Not caring. Self-expressing.

This is one of my favorite pieces of content to make.

How can you decide NOT to suffer, starting with even a day?

Who would you give up your subway seat to?? What are your rules for this?? Is it rude to offer a seat to an older person unless they look physically weak?

Hey, CGs!

Want money? Power? Respect?

Listen to Lil Kim and the Lox.

Jk.

Actually not, jk. Go listen to that song.

BUT seriously…

I believe that to get the big amazing things we ALL want like money, freedom, opportunities, good health, great relationships, career fulfillment – we must be the FULLEST expression of ourselves. So in this episode we spend a good amount of time talking about getting over our fear of self-expression, and all the benefits doing so brings.

In this episode I also share a few easy breezy tips to save money AND time at the SAME time, no matter what city you live in.

I’d like to add to that portion regarding getting your workout in during the day – every time you get up to pee..do like 2 minutes of standing crunches, leg lifts, squats, arm raises - whatevz – in the ladies room. (When no one’s there of course.) Before you know it you’ve done some decent strength training and didn’t have to make more time for this before or after work. J

Got tips on how to save time/money in your city? Please share over on Facebook or in the comments here on Podbean!

The questions for that “one holiday wish” at the end of this episode…

1) What is one holiday wish you want to come true for yourself over the course of the next month or year?

2) What is one holiday wish you want to come true for the world?

3) What can you do to make these so/bring them to fruition?

Varidesk is the sit/stand “apparatus” I was thinking of that you can put on pretty much any desk. Make your employer pay for it! And if you work for yourself – hello, tax writeoff! J

This is the YouTube video I mentioned I had posted about making sure you're not sabotaging your efforts by taking in TOO much inspiration. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=br6uxvmnGyE&t=44s

As mentioned in the episode, if you are looking to start a business or creative passion on the side of your fulltime job, but don’t know where to start or maybe even exactly what it is you want to do, I invite you to a *complimentary* 30-minute breakthrough call with me. You know you’re not meant to work a 9-5 forever. Let’s get you started embracing your fullest self-expression NOW so we can get you out of there SOONER.

Just shoot me an email at [email protected] with the subject “breakthrough,” and share with me where you’re at/where your goals are. We’ll find time to schedule the call and get you set out on your path. There is absolutely NO pressure to continue working with me. I just wanna get you MOVING.

How I'm accomplishing so much with LESS time and giving myself the space to do NADA and explore my other interest.

My love for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade rages on. Lmao.
