Are you living in faith or fear?
I really believe there are two ways to live your life...in faith or in fear
I think with all that’s gone on this past year, this has been illuminated even more. There is a huge divide in our society right now, in my opinion.
A divide between those who want to live in freedom & faith, and those who want to live subservient lives of fear & control/direction from others.
Because you cannot live in faith & fear at the same time...you must choose one or the other.
When I say faith, I mean fully trusting & having hope for the future, no matter what is currently happening or what has happened in the past.
And when I say fear, I mean fear created from past experiences or fear of bad things happening in the future.
Ask yourself this - how would you live your life if you had no fear or failure, judgement, death...or any of the big things that most people are afraid of?
Don’t you think you’d show up differently if you weren’t afraid or those things! To me, that’s what truly walking, embodying and living in faith looks like.
Being open to new opportunities and possibilities is a huge part of living in faith over fear.
Again, I always come back to that faith means hope & a deep feeling of confidence in the future being happy, fruitful and positive.
When we have faith and hope for the future, we are open to receiving new opportunities in our lives.
When we live in fear, we are closed off to receiving new things because we are often cynical and don’t believe that there’s anything better out there for us.
A lot of what is pushed in mainstream society today is division, hate & fear.
Ask yourself, why would that be pushed onto us?
Because it is much easier to control a divided, hateful and fearful society.
If people in a society are living in faith, love & unity...they are not easy to control.
I encourage you to really take a look at the social media accounts you follow, the other media you consume, the podcasts you listen to, the government...and ask yourself this question...
Are these people pushing fear, negativity, drama, hate and division?
Or are these people encouraging faith, love, unity & hope?
That is honestly how I determine a lot of what media and information I consume today. I look at the positioning of how the information is being presented.
If they’re being dramatic, fear mongering, dividing & spreading hate (even if it’s done in a not so obvious way such as social justice for worthy causes), I do not consume that type of information and media.
Living in faith is a conscious choice that we must make every single day.
It takes awareness and effort.
But it’s absolutely worth it!
Living in faith for me equals happiness, peace, joy, confidence and love.
Hope you enjoyed that episode!! Can’t wait to catch you on the next one!
Cheers,

Hey guys, welcome to Episode 6 of the Freedom Seekers Podcast!
As we move into a new year, I encourage you to ask yourself…
Am I avoiding what’s hard in life & always taking the easy path?
This can show up in your relationships, fitness, business, your parenting, etc & it can permeate all areas of your life. And we are all guilty of choosing the easy route sometimes.
But I think the even more important question to ask yourself is, do I choose the hard, more fulfilling & better choices more often…or do I choose the easy, lazy non productive choices more often?
We are all humans, we are not machines or robots that can perform perfectly with no flaws day in and day out.
However, if you have big goals you want to hit, or you want to change something about your current situation (whether that be financially, your physical body, your relationships, etc)…you’re going to have to do the hard things and put in the work consistently over a period of time.
You can’t expect to always pick the easy and comfortable choices, & still get the results you’re looking for.
I love the saying “the results you want are found in the work you’re avoiding”. It’s very true. Many of us avoid hard work.
Enthusiasm is common but endurance is rare.
Lots of people can start something new & get excited about it for a while, but very few actually have the endurance to follow through and execute long term.
As humans we naturally crave comfort and will revert back to that unless we consciously make the decision every day to go against that wiring in our brains, and force ourselves to do the hard things.
Our reptilian brain holds us back because it wants to keep us safe and comfortable. When we are trying to do things that make us uncomfortable or are outside our comfort zone, our brain tries to stop us.
I also recognize that we live in a society of instant gratification. We want things NOW and if it takes too long, we get disinterested or we think it’s not working.
This type of mentality is detrimental when it comes to achieving your goals. It is imperative that you play the long game and reach for long term results.
I also love the expression “pay now or pay later”.
To me what this means is, make the easy decision now and pay later. Or make the harder choices now (aka pay now) and then reap the rewards later.
Ultimately the decisions we make daily are what add up and create the outcomes of our lives.
As miniscule as those daily choices can seem…they are what will determine if you hit your goals and create the life of your dreams, or if you continue to do the same thing year after year.
“If it’s to be it’s up to me!”
Let’s make 2021 your best year yet!!
Hey guys! Welcome to Episode 5 of the Freedom Seekers Podcast!
In this episode, I share key mindset shifts to help you stop letting the opinions of others rule your life. I think this is a huge challenge for a lot of people, so I’m hopeful this episode will be helpful!
I’ve always been a people pleaser, that’s my natural personality. So I used to be highly focussed on the opinions of others, wanting people to like me, wanting people to approve of what I’m doing, etc.
This made starting a business online really challenging for me. I was terrified that others would judge me, think I’m weird or that I was “that girl” now…
I’ll be honest, I’ve let the fear of judgement hold me back from starting things along my journey. It’s something I’ve had to battle with and still battle with daily!
I see this a lot in other people too. Many people let the opinions of others hold them back. Whether it’s friends, family members, a spouse, coworkers...we want to be liked and approved of by others.
But at the end of the day, sometimes those other people in our lives don’t see things the way we do, they don’t know our feelings, our personal thoughts, and they also don’t know what’s best for us. Only we know what’s best for ourselves.
These are some mindset shifts that have helped me stop letting the opinions of others control me:
Lots of people who want to start a business online or already have started a business online have mindset challenges around what others will think about them when they start showing up on social media, doing go lives, insta stories, etc. When I start to feel fear around showing up inside of my business online, I tell myself “those other people judging don’t pay your bills”. The truth is that my online business has helped me create more income so I’ve paid off debt, been able to work less and have a clear plan to achieve my financial & personal goals. If people don’t like what I do, it doesn’t matter to me because those people aren’t paying my bills, they aren't paying off my debt and they aren’t going to create financial freedom for me. They’re opinions are irrelevant! The opinions of judgemental people have nothing to do with you and everything to do with them. They have issues going on internally, that they project onto you when you’re doing something that highlights their issues within themselves. If someone is judging you for doing something that’s helping you grow & making you better...they are doing much less than you and that’s why they have the time and energy to judge you. Someone who’s going for their own goals will never look down on you for going for yours. It’s always those doing less than you that will judge. Another important shift is to take action! It’s pretty hard to judge and condemn someone that’s winning and getting results. Use those judgemental people as fuel to your fire. Prove them wrong. Stick it out, start to win & get results!! That’s honestly the best confidence booster...when you start to see your hard work pay off and those opinions of others didn’t matter at all in the grand scheme of things. Lastly I want to talk about the types of people we choose to keep close to us in our lives. So my question to you is, do you really want to let judgemental & unsupportive people have access to you and your feelings? Are you going to give them that power? I personally have weeded out certain friends or people in my life because they weren’t supportive of my business and other things I was doing. I have big goals and I don’t want those kinds of people in my life anyways! Positive vibes only please!
I hope this episode is helpful & gives you some good mindset shifts to stop caring what others think & do the things you truly want to do in your life!
Thanks again so much for listening!
Catch you on the next episode!

Hey guys welcome to episode 4 of The Freedom Seekers Podcast!
In this episode, I’m going to be sharing how learning the skill sets of high ticket sales and paid online advertising can transform your life.
So let’s define high ticket sales. From my experience & what my mentors have taught me, any sale that pays out a commission greater than $1000 is defined as a high ticket sale.
Majority of online opportunities today are low ticket sales that typically pay out $50 - a couple hundred dollars per sale.
However since I promote a high ticket offer, I’m able to earn $3300+ per sale inside of my business currently.
Many people who start or want to start an online business have income goals. So let’s say your income goal is to generate $10,000 per month inside of your business.
If you’re promoting a low ticket item that pays you $100 in commissions per sale, you’d have to make 100 sales inside of your business.
However for me, since I promote a high ticket item, I only have to make 2.5 sales in a month to reach that monthly income goal. Which is more achievable than having to make hundreds of sales. This is why I’m such a big believer in high ticket sales!
Now let’s talk about how paid online advertising makes scaling a business much easier. Most people starting an online business don’t have a huge social media following/audience to sell & promote their products and or opportunity to.
This was the case for me. Before starting my business, I rarely posted on social media and did not have any sort of following. I also didn’t want a business where I had to constantly show up on social media and be talking about my business, products, etc. That just wasn’t the business model for me!
So when I found out I could use paid online ads to generate customers and business partners, I was intrigued! I was passionate and eager to learn about this.
The online education platform I use (the RPL method), taught me how to launch, test and run my paid ads. There’s a link at the bottom of these show notes to check out a 30 minute webclass to learn more about this education platform it you’re interested in getting educated in the skill sets of high ticket sales & online advertising.
The beautiful thing about paid ads is once you get them running, they can generate leads and sales for you 24 hours/day, on your behalf, using automation.
Ultimately most people want to start an online business to create more time freedom for themselves. But if you’re constantly having to be posting on social media to grow your business, that can be very time consuming and often doesn’t give you the freedom you’re desiring. But if you use paid ads, as well as have funnels & systems in place, it creates time freedom for you because there’s automation & things running on your behalf.
With organic/free marketing (essentially posting on your social media to acquire sales), unless you have a large social media following, your organic pool of interested people will eventually run dry. And at that point, it becomes hard to continue to scale & grow your business.
But with paid ads, you can keep reaching more and more people! Your audience is unlimited!
The possibilities are limitless when it comes to high ticket sales and paid online advertising. After doing tons of research, I believe it’s the best business model in the online space.

Welcome to Episode 3 of The Freedom Seekers Podcast!
In this episode, I am going to be chatting about the power of celebrating your small wins. The big project in our lives and businesses is us, ourselves. We will dictate the outcomes of our lives! And there’s a certain amount of growth and expansion necessary, to advance yourself to the next level in life and business. Where you’re at in life right now is relative to how much you’ve grown yourself and your mindset. Ultimately if you were thinking like a person who runs a 6-7 figure business, lives a freedom lifestyle, etc...you’d already be earning that amount of money and would be living your dream lifestyle. So if you’re not quite there yet, you have some more growing to do first.
In life, we get to decide what we define as a win. For example, financial results are just one way to measure a win. In the beginning of any journey (business, fitness, etc), it’s imperative to focus on the process first, not the results or outcome you want to achieve. The law of delayed returns states that your life today is the result of your past thoughts, actions and habits. If you’re unhappy today, you really should be looking at the last 6 months, 12 months, 2 years. Because all the little tiny decisions you made in your recent past, have accumulated and got you to where you are today.
If making these small bad decisions compounding over time is what it took to get you to the unhappy place you're in now, the same is also true for the other way around. To get you to the point where you’re free & living your dreams is also going to be this little daily process of forming better habits, making better decisions and taking action. These good decisions will accumulate over time to help you reach the happy, fulfilled, wealthy version of yourself.
To get into the momentum of celebrating small wins and into the mentality of winning, you need to shift your perspective on what actually is a win. This can be done simply by shifting your day, by doing the little things. For example, reading 2 pages of a book is a win, making your bed is a win, doing a post on social media is a win, drinking 2L of water in a day is a win…When you focus on these small wins, you can stack them all together and celebrate your progress.
When you’re so focused on the outcome or result you’re wanting to achieve, if you don’t achieve it fast enough, you feel like you’re losing not winning. But if you shift your perspective and focus on completing the daily tasks within your process, you’ll feel like you’re winning and ultimately you are making progress towards the results you're wanting.
In the beginning stages of building a business, or even if you’re starting a new fitness journey or any new venture, you have to set yourself up to win frequently and focus on the small wins. As you get a little more advanced, the little wins you used to celebrate have become routine and second nature. This is when you can really start shooting to hit some big financial goals or results based outcomes. Only start focusing on this once you’ve got your daily process and good habits totally dialed in!
I hope this episode helps you reposition your priorities and shift your perspective on what you need to do to create the feelings of success in your life, by getting yourself into positive momentum, through setting up a good process, celebrating your small wins and then eventually shooting for specific targets & outcomes!
Thanks for listening!
Catch you on the next episode!

Welcome to Episode 2 of The Freedom Seekers Podcast!
I have a question for you...have you ever felt any of these things? “If just one more thing goes wrong, it’s going to send me over the edge! I’m at my breaking point! I can’t take it anymore! I’m too discouraged and overwhelmed as it is. I’m just so done.” If that’s you right now or maybe has been you in the past or potentially in the future, this episode is for you.
I also think this topic is so fitting right now with all that’s going on in the world. Our world as a collective is going through a very hard time, and many of us as individuals are as well. Mental health is dwindling, lots of anxiety..depression..anger...violence is on the rise...financial pressures...family struggles...lots of challenging situations are happening right now…
I discuss in this episode how to go through hard times and come out stronger on the other side. Because at the end of the day, hard times in life show you what you’re truly capable of. As horrible as some situations can be, they are happening to us for a reason. We are meant to learn, grow and eventually be grateful for these hard moments. You cannot grow and learn to be a courageous and brave individual, if only wonderful things happen to you. Sometimes it takes those gut wrenching moments to show us what we’re made of and force us to grow into stronger versions of ourselves.
So if you are going through a really tough time right now, just know that it’s happening FOR you and not TO you. There’s a reason why you’re going through it, and it’s up to you to figure out why, learn from it, and grow to be better. Your grit, persistence, confidence and resilience is built during hard times, not good times. You are becoming stronger each and every day you persevere through challenges.
I truly believe we are capable of so much more than we think we are. Sometimes it takes these super challenging experiences to show us how resilient and strong we truly are.
In this episode, I also share with you 5 tangible ways to help yourself get through tough times and grow to be stronger on the other side!
I’m going to leave you with a quote that I’ve always loved - “Tough times never last, but tough people do”. If you’re in a season of challenges, heartbreak, loss, pain, grief...know it won’t be like this forever. Just like any other season, it will pass.
Enjoy this episode lovelies, I hope you like it!
Welcome to the first episode of The Freedom Seekers Podcast! I’m so glad you’re here!
Listening to podcasts daily for the past couple years has totally changed my mindset, my business and life overall. I’ve learned so much from them and have wanted to start my own podcast for quite some time now! I have been craving more connection, realness & authenticity, so I am excited to bring that to my podcast. I truly want to help and serve other hard working professionals who are wanting to get involved with, or are already in the online space! If you work a regular job and want to start an income earning project on the side, this is the podcast for you.
Inside this episode I briefly dive into some background info about me, my personal life, my education history, my career as a nurse, why I started my online side hustle, my goals & my top values in life.
I also explain what sorts of topics I will be talking about in my future podcast episodes! I will be focusing mainly on the topics of mindset, as well as starting and growing a successful online side hustle.
Mindset is so important and will dictate the outcome of your life. So many people want to skip over the personal growth work, but it is honestly the most essential to your success in all areas of life. It doesn’t matter if you have the most amazing opportunity in the world, if your mindset isn’t in check, you will not be successful. On my podcast I want to provide education, resources, tips and my own personal experience on growing and developing your mindset, so you can integrate this into your own life and show up as the absolute best version of yourself!
By now if you’re interested in this podcast, you know it’s no secret that I’m extremely passionate about people building a side hustle alongside their job. That’s one of the main focuses of this podcast! Starting an online side hustle alongside my full time job as an RN was a game changer for me, and allowed me to create so much more freedom and flexibility in my life! I’m going to be sharing my tips along with what I’ve learned and implemented in my own business online. Many people have a negative opinion or mindset when it comes to online marketing, digital businesses, network marketing, whatever you want to call it! I want to work on busting through those false perceptions and sharing the truth about the online space and what it really looks like to run a digital business! I truly know how life changing starting a business online can be from my own experience, so I’m going to be sharing the real facts on what it takes to successfully start and grow an online side hustle..and why it’s the best thing you could do for yourself now and for your future.
I want this podcast to be a fun, safe space where ambitious, like-minded individuals come to learn, grow and get tangible takeaways to apply to their own life and businesses. I am so excited to be able to have this platform to help others and share my learnings along the way.
I have embarked on my own personal journey to freedom and happiness, and I am so pumped to take you along for that journey! I want to share my journey with you in hopes that it inspires you to continue or embark on your own journey to personal freedom and a beautiful, abundant life.
My goal is to release a new episode weekly, every Tuesday, so make sure to subscribe and check back each week for new episodes!
Thank you so much for listening and I can’t wait to chat with you again next week! Bye for now!
