Welcome our guest today Judy Kane!
Judy helps people identify and release subconscious beliefs that keep them repeating unhealthy, stressful patterns. Her clients experience shifts which allow them to achieve their goals —with ease and comfort. She is the author of Your4Truths: How Beliefs Impact Your Life. Judy also hosts workshops and presents in group sessions, conferences, and podcasts. Originally from Richmond, Virginia, she lives near Tampa Bay, Florida, usually with a rescued cat or dog (or two) as part of her household.
Today we help you understand what subconscious beliefs are and how to discover if they have any that are limiting them. Most subconscious beliefs are acquired by the time we are seven years old, and many don't support our conscious goals now. Identifying them and knowing that they can be changed is critical to living the life you want to live.

Have you tried using a vision board or whiteboard to help you focus on your goals? They can be helpful tools for visualizing what you want to achieve, but if you're not acting towards achieving those goals, they might not be as effective as you'd like.
One reason this might be the case is if you don't have a specific plan in place for how to achieve your goals. Simply creating a vision board or whiteboard and looking at it every day isn't going to make your goals magically come true. It's important to have a clear and detailed plan for how you will work towards your goals and take consistent action towards achieving them. This may include setting specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals, identifying the steps you need to take to achieve those goals, and setting deadlines for when you want to achieve each step.
Another reason why vision boards and whiteboards may not be as effective as you'd like is if you're not holding yourself accountable. It can be easy to get sidetracked or lose motivation when working towards a long-term goal. Having an accountability partner or a coach can help keep you on track and provide support and guidance as you work towards your goals. This could involve setting regular check-ins to review your progress and discuss any challenges or obstacles you may be facing.
So let’s get into a little more detail here:
-
Define your goals clearly: Think about what you want to achieve in 2023. What do you want to accomplish personally, professionally, or in other areas of your life? Make sure your goals are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART).
-
Break your goals down into smaller steps: Once you have your goals defined, break them down into smaller, more manageable steps. This will make it easier to focus on what you need to do each day or week to move closer to your goals.
-
Set deadlines: Assign deadlines to each step in your plan. This will help you stay on track and ensure that you're making progress towards your goals.
-
Identify any resources or support you may need: Think about what resources or support you may need to achieve your goals. This could include things like education, training, financial resources, or support from friends and family.
-
Create a schedule: Once you have your goals and steps defined, create a schedule that outlines when you'll work on each step. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you're making consistent progress towards your goals.
-
Review and revise your plan regularly: It's important to review and revise your plan regularly to make sure you're on track to achieve your goals. This will allow you to make any necessary adjustments to your plan and stay focused on what you want to accomplish.

Leadership is critical to the success of what we accomplish in our lives, whether it’s being a leader for our family, our work team, or ourselves. With that being said, I thought this would be a nice subject for this week’s newsletter because this is something that I’m extremely passionate about.
We all have experiences with great leaders (those who have left an impact for the good) and some less-than-ideal leaders (those who have left an impact for all the wrong reasons).

Today I welcome Lindsay Stead from Guilded Blooms Communications, where we discuss saying, "Bye Felicia!" to Comparisonitis.
Listen to Lindsay and me as we share insights around making change happen, feeling the fear of change, and diving feet first into entrepreneurship.

Lindsay Stead is a trailblazer when it comes to the coaching industry; having built her entire career around the belief that your success is inevitable as long as you keep going and forge genuine relationships.
Lindsay has supported entrepreneurs looking to leverage their digital marketing and uplevel their business. When you work with Lindsay you get a dose of accountability, strategy, support, friendship, cheerleading, and everything in between.
Building genuine relationships online didn’t always come easily to Lindsay; a true INFJ, Lindsay has always valued her privacy and alone time, often needing it to recharge. This genuine understanding has enabled Lindsay to support fellow introverts and shy-leaning entrepreneurs build their businesses without being in that constant state of burnout.
Building a business that aligns with and empowers entrepreneurs is at the core of Lindsay’s coaching; you can often hear her telling her clients:
“We all have fears and insecurities but you have a choice: you can either double down on them and stay exactly where you are, or you can acknowledge them and move forward anyway. The choice is yours.”
Change - Even when you least expect it!!!
Here are five questions that I suggest you rate yourself on a scale of 1-10 on to see where you’re at.
Question 1:How often do you try new things? - when is the last time you tried something new?
Question 2: Are you always looking to improve on many areas of your life?
Question 3: Do you fear change? - Do you avoid it?
Question 4: Do you know what needs to change in your life, do you have clarity here?
Question 5: Are you ready for change?
I like to ask myself those questions each month to keep myself accountable for my personal growth, and to quite frankly keep challenging myself. I also allows me to reassess…
Is the change still relevant to achieving my goals?
Is the change challenging me?
And what actions do I need to commit to for the next 30 days…am I focused or losing focus?
Get to know me and what Living Life with Wendy is all about.
If you're a woman in business, a professional, or into personal development, then this is for you!
