We Made It episodes

  • 1: Alison’s Issues: ADDICTION
    I recorded this episode several days ago and thought about not uploading it. Reading an article where Aetna CEO Mark Bertolini shared his experience with addiction and mindfulness gave me the added push to share.
    Getting sober young.
    The ugliness of addiction.
    Common mindsets of addicts.
    Lying in active addiction.
    Recovery.
    Being on a Spiritual Path.
    Asking what I can do for Spirit instead of what Spirit is or isn’t doing for me.

  • 10: Season One Finale. How and When to Walk Away
    I used to be scared to walk away from relationships, jobs and cities I lived in because I have a restlessness of spirit and I know that sometimes my desire to cut and run comes from that restlessness.
    Over time I’ve gone to the other extreme and stayed in negative situations too long.
    In this episode I discuss how I navigate walking away and my process for the next stage of my life experience after the change.
    Season Two will be unedited and an uncensored look into my ISSUES.
    Stay tuned. Share. Comment. Like. Review. Keep grinding ladies.

  • 8: Comparison, Momming and Owning Your Power
    In this episode I discuss why you need to stop comparing yourself to other moms, other businesses, other coworkers, other competition in your field. 
    You’re never going to be them. You may never beat them. But this idea that “they” have it easier is an idea that we need to destroy before it destroys our own dreams. 
    Happy Hustle, Mama’s!

  • 7: When Women Act Catty/Tony Robbins/#MeToo
    In this episode I recount a time when another "successful mommy blogger" told me that I was relying on my looks for relevance (or something like that). She honestly didn't put it that coherently, but...alas...that was her response to something I messaged her about. 
    The Tony Robbins #MeToo foot-in-mouth about "attractive women" being a liability or a distraction for powerful men in the workplace inspired me to share this pod that I recorded about a month ago. 
    Ladies...don't EVER dim your light because it may make someone uncomfortable. Also...self-care from the inside out or outside in is all fair game for me. In fact...acting my way into right thinking has always worked way better than thinking my way into right action. 
    Just let us live!

  • 4: Time, Doubt & Haters
    In this episode I dig into what it's like to manage time when you're a working mom. How do you find (create) time to pursue your passion projects, go back to school, get in shape or do something *extra* when you already have so much on your plate. 
    How I use a sales tool "activity standards" to do basic human things for my son and I. And how I respond to people who don't understand what I'm doing with my projects. 
    Love you mom's so much!
