BOLD POINTS:

Birthdays are blessings!

Be aware. Waste no time in finding awareness that you are enough as you are. Each of us is enough as we are.

Remember that we are not alone in our journeys.

Start each day saying, “Something great is happening today.” Go find the treasure and be open to receiving it.

Everything on the outside is a result of what we’ve felt on the inside. When you know better, do better.

Learn to be silent and still.

Find joy in where you are. Find peace in where you are. Find the gift in your current situation. (Listen for more bold points in the episode)

GUEST WELCOME: Mare is a fellow podcaster and is the founder of Conscious Connections Circles™, a practice of intentionally showing up to witness the lives of women who create meaningful connections and navigate life's accountabilities. Participants share their hopes and dreams, support each other, and receive support for their own aspirations. She initially began this practice almost 30 years ago as a way to balance her responsibilities while pursuing a college degree, building a career, and while also being present for her family's important life moments. Mare's commitment to fostering a supportive community of women has led her to help others start their own Conscious Connection Circles to support other women’s dreams. Her podcast is the Connect Project 360. Connection matters!

Think about who you invite into your inner circle.

If you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room.

Some top character traits to develop are being truthful, loyal, professional, and having some common sense. Learn to be confident in yourself.

The only constant in life is change. Learn to adapt and pivot. It’s all going to be okay. We can adapt.

The perfect job/career exists for you. Find the right fit. It’s out there.

Work somewhere where you are respected, valued, and heard.

If you want to level up or do something different in your career, don’t take no for an answer.

If it’s something you want, keep working at it. Figure out what you need to do to level up and just do it. What have you got to lose?

If making a career change, highlight the common needs and be confident that you can do it and figure it out.

Have hope that things can get better.

Be there for the people you love.

Remember you can’t please everybody.

Be in alignment with your true self.

Think through things differently sometimes.

GUEST WELCOME:

Jen Underwood has spent 20+ years hiding in a basement working in public service. A book-writing project aimed at sharing her words of wisdom with her soon-to be 18 year old son took a surprising turn that caused Jen to awaken. It took her nearly 40 years to finally WAKE UP to living her life with purpose, passion and authenticity, and now says she can’t go back to sleep. She is on a mission to not only live her life the way she was meant to, but to also help others do the same. She recently started the Shake Me Awake podcast with the goal of speaking to others about how to show up authentically and live their lives with purpose and passion. She is determined to live life on HER OWN terms!

BOLD POINTS

Try to find your happiness in this world. Show up as your true self.

Ask yourself a lot of questions. Who am I? What are your life lessons? How would you like to live? Who do you want to be? What are your true gifts? What are you passionate about? What’s your personal purpose?

Do some soul-searching and discover what you want out of life. How would you live differently if you knew your days were numbered? Time is short. Start taking steps in that direction and the universe will start lighting your path.

If you have lots of ideas and need to find a focus, ask yourself what is most in alignment for you, what do you want, and what do you hope to get out of it. Ask yourself what your goal is.

Allow yourself wiggle room and schedule in what you want to do and need to do.

Stop caring about what other people expect of you or think about you.

Remember that we are our own gatekeepers to our own success and in living the life we want.

When doubts creep in, find ways to encourage yourself and pump yourself up.

Try writing little messages of encouragement to yourself.

Seek out supportive circles.

Choose the content you’re consuming.

Live the life you’re meant to live and the life you want to live. Try to find your happiness and don’t apologize for what that looks like for you.

Show up how you want to show up in life. If it lights you up, if it’s your purpose and passion, show up and do it.

Shake yourself awake. Stop sleepwalking through life.

JASMINE’S BOLD POINTS:

Follow your interests and you’ll probably discover your purpose.

When faced with a challenge and you don’t know how to execute it, research and figure it out. Challenge yourself to learn and grow. Learn some different tools and find new resources.

So you don’t burn out, take care and adjust what you do.

Find inspiration your way. What do you like? What do you enjoy? Do what energizes you.

Get outside, take a walk.

Don’t follow all the rules and trends. Do what makes you happy and makes you feel good. Go for what your dreams are. Do your passion.

Be comfortable in your clothes. Be in your own lane.

To stay motivated, it helps to be inspired by your space. Organize so that it makes sense to you.

Ask yourself what you want to achieve? Then make a list and check in on it.

If you ever feel defeated, keep going. Be resourceful to get what you need.

When changes happen, get good at pivoting. A new area might open up for you.

Reach out to people doing what you’d like to do. Learn from them.

You’ll always be criticized at some point; be prepared for that. But if you’re in your calling, continue doing what you know is true to yourself.

Don’t let other people’s opinions deter you from what you want to do. Stay true to yourself.

Go after your dream. Go after what you want. Don’t let anything stop you from doing that. No matter what the circumstances are, don’t let the dream die. Keep going forward.

What is brewing in your soul? Are you listening? It could be transformative. —Guest Amy Renaud

KEY WORDS: Entrepreneur, business, growth, learning, potential, challenge yourself, focus, trust your gut, start small, therapy

TODAY’S GUEST: Amy Renaud, Entrepreneur,

After years of self-reflection, Amy’s pursuit of personal growth finally found fertile ground around the age of 40, a period when she doubted the possibility of real change. This marked the beginning of her journey as a self-proclaimed late bloomer. She has overcome challenges such as ADHD, a lack of confidence, and the burdens of growing up too fast, all which led Amy to embark on a new path. Driven by a desire to serve her clients more authentically and be free from corporate agendas, she left behind a comfortable job and embraced self-employment. For seven years, Amy has dedicated herself to supporting K-12 school clients with their websites through her business, edTechnoggin. She is a life-long learner, continuously seeks growth and blends her creative and technical talents. Amy's journey is not just one of entrepreneurship but also of personal transformation….

BOLD POINTS:

Follow what’s deep down and brewing in your soul.

If you need freedom and flexibility, consider doing your own business.

Challenge yourself and utilize your potential.

Go to therapy.

Take advantage of various training opportunities and events. You might just get inspired.

There is growth in discomfort.

You’ll get through it.

You don’t just want to survive; you want to thrive.

Set aside some dedicated business support time.

Listen to and trust your gut.

Get a hobby, meet a man.

If you want to start a business, do the groundwork and balance the facts, get proof, start small in a safe space, but don’t overthink it.

Always move forward. Be okay with where you are, but look forward and keep hope that things will get better.

GUEST: Jen DeVilliers is a nutrition, fitness, and wellness coach dedicated to helping women to look and feel their best. For this episode, we discuss Jen's journey in the health and wellness industry, her early experiences, to becoming a certified personal trainer, and eventually a triathlon coach. She also talks about how a severe hip injury led her to explore alternative healing methods, and she discusses finding strength and hope through difficult times. Her passion for helping women feel their best and overcome their limiting beliefs is a central focus of this conversation and her work. She believes in your ability to shine.

BOLD POINTS:

It’s never too late, and you are not too old. You can feel wonderful in your body, and know this—you *can* dramatically change your body.

Remember that small steps add up to massive change. Set intentions and goals with shorter timeframes. If you’re just beginning, tell yourself that you’re worth it.

Never ever give up. You’ve got grit. Fitness is for everyone.

Find gems in the hard times. Find hope and create a vision for yourself that can help pull you forward.

All of us are capable of so much more than we give ourselves credit for.

Find your determination within. Wake up and say to yourself, “enough is enough.”

Find sparks of joy throughout the day.

Get good sleep, good nutrition, do strength training and check your mindset for transformation wins.

Replace your limiting beliefs with empowering beliefs.

Develop a growth mindset. Ask yourself, “How can I learn? How can I grow? What *can* I do?”

Surround yourself with a supportive, positive community.

Get on a plan of radical self-care. It’s time for you to shine and live your life to the fullest. You are worth it.

She is a wonderfully creative artist, who makes participatory art and printmaking; she’s a retired librarian, and a deeply thoughtful, and caring soul with an extensive exhibition history. She earned her Bachelor’s Degrees in Art and Art History at the University of Maryland, and earned her MFA with a focus on Printmaking at California State University, Long Beach. For this talk we spoke live from her newest exhibition called Perspectives—Reflections on/of Self at the Pacific Grove Art Center in Pacific Grove, California. I invite you to join us with an open mind for exploration, and with a sense of curiosity, play, and imagination. Let's celebrate International Women’s Day today with some art appreciation.

If you are in the Monterey Bay Area in California now through April 25, 2024, please stop by the Pacific Grove Art Center to see the show and to participate in Barbara’s ongoing, long-term participatory art exhibitions.
