"How To Transform Your Anxiety Through Awareness 1" is part 1 of 2 with my guest, Transformation Success Coach, Tiffeny Town! After a long career in the financial and accounting industry, Tiffeny was constantly seeking her life's purpose with a focus on how to help others. She’s followed many paths—from network marketing, career coaching, and the medical field. She gravitated back to the recurring theme of coaching, mentoring and inspiring other women, specifically with removing emotional and mindset blocks so women could create the life desired.

Tiffeny’s story is an inspiration itself, and—in my mind—establishes her credential for turning her personal struggles into an altruistic mission. She uses her life experiences of being an adult child of an addict/alcoholic, overcoming abusive relationships, surviving financial hardships and bankruptcy, divorce, infertility, and having the courage to launch her business —as a foundation of her coaching practice. She’s done her share of working things out internally with her Life Coach. She’s gotten “serious about stepping into my own power and serving my purpose.”

"You Are Enough Just As You Are!" (Part 1 of 2) features my conversation with licensed psychologist, author, and clinical supervisor Dr. Tara Sanderson. Our conversation is relevant for those who struggle with perfectionism, overachieving, anxiety, depression, and “the inner critic.” 

“Through intentional choices, you are enough just as you are.”

“Be non-judgmental, on purpose, and fully present.”

“This juxtaposition of feeling like what you are going through, who you are, and how you navigate the world is too much. And yet you’re not enough at the same time.”

“It’s not because of intentional choices or because you’re working really hard that you’re enough. You take off all those chains and those shackles of ‘too much-ness’ and ‘not enough-ness’ by just feeling confident and comfortable with the decisions you are making. You are enough.”

“The Mindfulness ‘SOBER’ tool = Stop. Observe. Breathe. Examine Options. Respond.”

“Take time before your decision, pause your auto-pilot to match your decision with your values.”

This is a special International Women's Day episode made for Resonance FM. It features excerpts from my interviews with 4 creative women for Your Creative Chord Podcast. These creative women share: 

their unique approaches to creativity

the crucial rejuvenation of 'time on the shelf,'

what we can do to progress opportunities for more women, 

how art expresses the feminine power of a fully free woman, and 

how creative works tell our unique stories. 

They share their journeys to establish themselves as creators, despite oppression, mental wellness struggles, few to zero role models, and starting their careers based on sheer gumption.

I'd like to thank each of my guests for sharing their creativity with my audience and for continuing to shine their artistry for the world:
