Worthfull Project

"If there's one thing I know, we all have something to contribute."

Well here we are, all trying to figure out how to be. Me included. Earthquake wake-up calls, quarantining, economic ???, and more.

I've felt the call to slow down. To contribute. To connect. To isolate. And above all to be compassionate and worthfull at a whole new level.

This solo episode is my contribution for the week - some thoughts I've been having about how we care for each other and ourselves and why owning our worth is as important now as ever. Much love!

"The expression of beauty is called freedom."

I've been looking forward to sharing this guest episode for weeks. If you're a long time listener of the podcast, you already know Jenna from episode 3, where she shared her powerful story of growing up in a cult and owning her worth as a extremely successful makeup artist.

In the last 2 years since that recording, Jenna has expanded into a whole new world of worth and beauty. A year ago, she decided to pivot into working exclusively with clean, sustainable beauty brands and become an ambassador for green beauty.

It has been amazing to watch her teach, educate, and radiate in this new calling and since beauty is one of my personal favorite topics to explore, I was so excited to have her back on the show to talk about it. In this conversation, Jenna shares insight into what it means to cultivate our beauty and how that is a beautiful reflection of our worth.

• How to feel safe owning your beauty (3:35)
• What it means to be the source of beauty for yourself (13:25)
• What it means to cultivate versus replicate beauty (19:15)
• How to shift your perspective on what beauty is (28:25)
• The brands that Jenna recommends to shift into clean, sustainable beauty products (34:43)
• How our self-worth is affected by how we cultivate our beauty (50:15)

"We live in the state of what we already want."

If you've been feeling a spot of overwhelm or doubt lately, you're in great company. Me too.

Everyone says being engaged and planning a wedding isn't easy, and it's not. It's also not all bad, but I've definitely had a full plate between that and building my business and planning a move.

So today's episode is all about reconnecting to the truth - that it's all going to work out. And no matter what and when that looks like, my worth is intact regardless.

"My results changed; that's a fact. But my worth didn't; and that's also a fact."

I've been reading, listening, and watching several things lately about the difference between self-worth and self-confidence. I love this conversation and it's not one I've often brought up on the podcast. Or is it? Haha, I don't know, all my thoughts run together on this.

Today I went to the DMV to get a new drivers license and register my car. It felt like I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro (not quite Everest-level, but close). I had a big surge of self-confidence after I finished because I had created new, hard-to-achieve results. But my worth didn't change.

I came home and recorded a solo episode on the marriage between self-worth (important) and self-confidence (also important). I think a worthfull life comes from honoring both.

"Our bodies know the truth."

I took a trip down memory lane this morning flipping through the pages of my childhood photo album. It was so fun. I was giggling and smiling from ear to ear.

It reminded me of all the good of my childhood, all the things it's easy to forget, and of course, how worthfull I have always been.

I recorded a solo episode about why I was looking at childhood photos, what I'm learning about being the sole adult authority figure in my life, and how coming home to myself starts with remembering my childhood.

"The most important part of owning our worth is just being."

I did a little check in with myself this morning. It's about six weeks into the new year and I have been PRODUCTIVE. Really getting things done. Busy, full, focused, intentional.

I noticed recently that I've also been having a little trouble falling asleep. I've not been doing as much of the things that bring me joy. I've been spending more time on my laptop.

I remembered the truism from self-development, "Be. Do. Have." It always starts with the being. And I've been pretty focused on the doing. So today is a little re-calibration of myself to center back on the being worthfull and trusting that all the doing will lead to having - but it starts with me being.

"If you aren't vulnerable, there is a lot less pain but a lot less love." - A Man Frozen In Time

I spent the weekend in St. Louis for a best friends high school reunion girls trip. These 3 ladies have known me since I was a teenager, and we still have the best time when we get together.

I wanted to record a solo episode about what I'm learning regarding owning my worth in friendships - how to create worthfull friendships and how to maintain them.

It's something I'm always learning and improving on, but it feels especially important the older I get.

"I've changed in order to love you in the ways you need to be loved."

Well here it is - the episode where you get to meet my  fiancé  Michael and hear about our relationship from his own mouth.

Per popular request, I asked him if he'd be willing to come on the podcast to share some of his insight into building a worthfull kind of love in our relationship. Of course, this is really a treat for me more than anything.

You get a front row seat to our process as we are learning daily what this looks like. In our conversation we talk about what we are both learning about worth and love, partnership, honesty, and how each person needs to be loved for who they are.

• What Michael is learning about loving me in my full worth by being honest (3:37)
• How you can prepare someone to receive your love (14:32)
• What Michael has learned about the ways I need to be loved (16:08)
• What I have learned about worthfull love from dating Michael (30:02)

"What could be more of a homecoming than claiming my sovereignty, my birthright?"

I met and had a wonderful session with a top-notch healer this week. It was the kind of meeting that I knew was perfectly timed and I was ready for it.

She talked to me about my body's alignment, misalignment, how that is a reflection of my inner world and workings, and what I get to shift to become fully empowered and healed. And she also worked out quite a bit of tightness in my neck and shoulders, bless her.

One thing in particular that she pointed out about my posture and current status struck me. She talked to me about survival archetypes and how many of us stay stuck in the child self when what we are meant to become is sovereign. I was all ears and am already learning what this means in my body and life. I shared my current thoughts on this in the solo round episode for this week. I can't wait to share more as I learn more!

"For no other reason than that I feel it, I feel the need for extra joy and pleasure right now."

I've been really good at journaling in the morning so far this year. What came up for me this morning was that I'm experiencing a dip in my daily pleasure and joy. And that gets to be fixed!

I've been so good at being productive, focused, and getting stuff done at the start of this new year, that I've let my priority of experiencing joy and pleasure daily slip down to tenth place.

This solo episode is my recommitment to putting daily joy and pleasure at the top of the priority list and seven ways I've learned to do this. As my intention to come home to myself leads the way, I'm going to practice what I preach and create a joyful, pleasurable space inside myself every day.
