The Amber Lilyestrom Show: Recent Episodes
Amber Lilyestrom
The Amber Lilyestrom Show is a podcast for the visionary, the dreamer, the disruptivator and the passionate soul on a mission. We do not follow someone else's formula for success, we trust the pull of our souls to take bold and inspired actions steps to create the lives and businesses we were created for. We intentionally cultivate a career and life journey that tells the bigger story, serves a higher purpose and, most importantly, fulfills us from the inside out.
There's something shifting in the way we connect and create in both our lives & businesses right now, and I believe the people willing to go deeper into their own truth are the ones who are going to feel it the most.
Today's episode is all about the power of nuance, depth, and creating a business and brand that actually makes people feel something. We're in a renaissance moment where the perfectly polished, follow-the-formula way of doing things is revealing its cracks, and what's working instead is truth, specificity and connection. I hope this episode serves as an invitation to stop managing other people's perception of you, to take some risks in your creative expression, and to lean into the things that make you, and the people you're here to serve, feel fully alive.
I can't wait for you to listen.

What if the thing standing between you and the business you're dreaming of isn't what you think it is?
In today's episode, I'm talking about the difference between hypothetical growth and the kind of wisdom that only comes from full-send living. We explore why it's impossible to just think your way into confidence and what happens when you stop trying to "get it right" before you ever even begin. The truth is, no one else can walk your miles for you. The growth, the clarity, and the business you're building all live on the other side of taking the next step- even when you don't know exactly where the road will lead.

I'm recording this episode live and in technicolor detail from the middle of what I am now lovingly calling a pain portal.
After two weeks of unexpected physical pain, I've found myself in a deeper conversation with my body, my stories, and the places where I've been unintentionally shrinking myself.
In this episode, I'm exploring what pain has the capacity to reveal when we stop fighting against it and start listening. Because sometimes the moments that feel the most uncomfortable are the ones that invite us into the deepest levels of honesty & growth.
We're talking about scarcity versus abundance, the stories we carry about who we're allowed to be, what happens when we stop apologizing for our power, and the invitation to fully step into the creativity, dreams, and aliveness that are already within us.
This is a conversation about telling the truth, trusting the wisdom of our bodies, and asking ourselves: What is this moment here to show me?
I can't wait for you to listen.

What if the biggest thing holding you back isn't your strategy, but the story you're running underneath everything you do?
In this episode, I'm talking about the reality codes we unconsciously live by and how they shape everything from our businesses to our relationships. I share a coaching conversation that illustrates how quickly we can slip into old patterns, and more importantly, how to consciously shift into new ones instead.
Plus I share how to identify the emotional code you're operating from, why your limits aren't as fixed as they seem, and the simple practices I use to intentionally create the life and business I want to experience.

I've spent this summer thinking a lot about joy- the way we're taught that' its something we need to earn, instead of something that we get to practice.
In today's episode, I'm sharing the idea of "joy maxing" and why I think it's one of the most important practices we can lean into right now. We talk about slowing down enough to actually experience the life we're working so hard to build, finding joy in the little moments, and letting that shift the way we show up in our relationships, our businesses, and ourselves.
I can't wait for you to listen.

In today's episode I'm unfolding a question that has been coming up everywhere in my work lately: What if the thing you're feeling is actually the invitation?
I dive into our tendency to avoid our more difficult emotions, and what becomes possible when we stop trying to fix, numb, or bypass them. There's freedom that comes from telling saying the real thing- and I hope this episode is an invitation for you to expand your range, embrace the full spectrum of your humanity, and trust that every emotion, every trigger, and every uncomfortable truth is pointing you toward greater freedom.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
In today's episode I'm answering a question I get all the time: How do you create so much content while also coaching clients, raising a family, and living a full life? I pull back the curtain on what my business actually looks like behind the scenes; from recording podcasts on walks and creating content in real time to balancing motherhood, coaching, creativity, and the everyday demands of life.
This episode is about more than productivity, though. It's about commitment, consistency, and most importantly, the love of the game.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
In today's episode I'm diving into the conversation everyone seems to be having right now: the Yap Challenge. But instead of talking about algorithms, tactics, or whether the trend is "good" or "bad," I want to explore what I think is actually happening beneath the surface.
I share why I believe the success of the Yap Challenge has far less to do with a tiny microphone and far more to do with courage, authenticity, repetition, and the willingness to be fully seen.
This episode is an invitation to stop obsessing over what everyone else is doing and start owning your own medium, your own message, and your own version of "yapping," because the real magic isn't in the trend. It's in the courage to be as fully YOU as possible.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
In today's episode I'm talking about what I'm calling "Steady Summer." It's a softer, slower, more intentional way of approaching business and life during this season that we've all been waiting anxiously to get to. I share some behind-the-scenes reflections on entrepreneurship, parenting, nervous system regulation, and what it actually looks like to build a business in the middle of a very real, full human life.
This episode is equal parts pep talk, permission slip, and reminder that your business gets to support your life - not consume it.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast. In today's episode I'm sharing a real-time reflection on nervous system patterns, creativity, and the stories we carry around our businesses and safety.
I talk about what it looks like to interrupt those inherited survival patterns, soften our grip on constant striving, and reconnect to expression, presence, and the real reason we share our work in the first place.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
In today's episode I'm reflecting on the stories we inherit and unconsciously pass down about money. I talk about how beliefs around it shape not only our businesses and lives, but the language, energy, and patterns our children absorb in real time.
This episode is an invitation to look honestly at your relationship with money, the narratives you've accepted as truth, and the ways those stories may still be running your decisions, your business, and your nervous system.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
Today's episode is about a truth I've been carrying, one that I'm finally ready to look at and face head on. I'm sharing about the decision to close a chapter of my life, and the story that has lived underneath it all of this time.
Today's conversation is an invitation to walk toward your own truth, even when it's painful or dismantles the story you thought your life would follow. I talk about the cost of living inside untold stories, the freedom on the other side of radical honesty, and how our fulfillment, joy, and success are directly tied to the truth we're willing to see and hold.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
In today's episode I'm joined by my longtime friend + colleague, Megan Hale, for a powerful conversation on money, business design, and what it really means to build something sustainable.
Megan Hale is the CEO and Founder of DreamMoney™ — a financial visibility platform helping Solo CEOs lead their businesses with strategic clarity and financial confidence. A former therapist turned financial business strategist, she spent 10+ years building a methodology that doesn't just teach founders to know their numbers; it rewires how they think about money, helping them clarify their vision, build sound financial strategy, and lead sustainable growth that brings it all to life. What started as three ugly spreadsheets is now a $100M vision to help over 150,000 women build wealth-generating businesses on their own terms.
We explore how our relationship with money shapes every part of our business- from our capacity to receive, to the way we price, plan, and grow- and why true financial confidence requires both inner work and practical skill-building.
I hope this episode serves as an invitation to stop avoiding the numbers, redefine success on your own terms, and build a business that actually supports your life.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
In today's episode I'm exploring the idea of the "sacred third," the path that may not make logical sense - especially when it comes to marketing!!, but feels right, and how choosing that path requires us to fully step into our authentic expression.
I am also sharing how this new model - the sacred third as I am referring to it lead to a $50K launch last week and how using this new Creative Operating System is blowing my mind and how you can learn and implement it too.

Welcome back to the Homeward Podcast.
In this week's episode, I'm sharing reflections from our family's month-long stay on the Gulf Coast of Florida, a vision we set last year and brought to life, as well as the powerful insights that emerged from my recent ELEVATE retreat.
I talk about how changing your environment, your daily patterns, and the conversations you're part of is essential if you want real, sustainable change in your life and business. Plus, I share my Money Codes framework and explore how our businesses are often born from our earliest wounds and survival stories- and how those same patterns can subconsciously create our current money and business challenges.

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast.
In today's episode, I'm joined by Celi Arias for a deeply real conversation about what it takes to build a healthy, sustainable business in a world that's constantly selling you a formula. Celi and I talk about the urgency of this moment- how fast technology is moving, how easy it is to get swept up in the "quick win" hype- and why learning the actual rules of business can be one of the most regulating, empowering things you ever do.
We dig into right-sizing your business around the life you want, the difference between borrowed strategies and aligned strategy, and the sneaky ways self-judgment keeps entrepreneurs stuck, especially when you're trying to figure out something new and convincing yourself you "should" already know how to do it. Celi shares her journey from scrappy, immigrant entrepreneurship to building a framework (and software) designed to help people succeed without copy-pasting someone else's blueprint, and we close with an edgy question that will help you identify the "one thing" in your business you're afraid to change… and why that might be the exact place your next level is hiding.

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast. In our final episode of 2025, I'm dropping us right into the heart of the work: the frequency we repeatedly choose becomes the reality we live in.

In this week's episode I'm sharing my own process for how I navigate myself and the world around me when I'm feeling out of alignment. It's all about getting honest with ourselves, getting back to first things first, and asking for what we need from the people we love who surround us.

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast.
I am honored to share today's conversation with the incredibly wise + paradigm-shifting David Bedrick.
David Bedrick, JD, Dipl. PW, is a teacher, counselor, and attorney. He grew up in a family marked by violence. While his father’s brutality was physical and verbal, his mother’s denial and gaslighting had its own covert power. This formative context introduced David early to the etiology of shame and instilled an urge to unshame.
Professionally, he was on the faculty for the University of Phoenix and the Process Work Institute in the U.S. and Poland and is the founder of the Santa Fe Institute for Shame-based Studies where he trains therapists, coaches and healers and offers workshops for individuals to further their own personal development.
David writes for Psychology Today and is the author of three books: Talking Back to Dr. Phil: Alternatives to Mainstream Psychology and Revisioning Activism: Bringing Depth, Dialogue, and Diversity to Individual and Social Change. His new book is You Can’t Judge a Body by Its Cover: 17 Women’s Stories of Hunger, Body Shame and Redemption.
Today's conversation serves as its own masterclass in unshaming. You'll hear David help me tease out my own inner critic and walk us through the unshaming process to find the flower (the gift) in our pain.
I can't wait for you to listen.

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast.
In today's conversation I'm sharing what I learned over the weekend after a pretty serious hack attempt on an old account, and what it opened for me as a lesson underneath.
Plus, I talk truth about the words: if the dream is in you, it's for you. How it isn't just a nice phrase, how it's the ultimate truth, and why you must trust that knowing in you + walk toward it with all your power. Nobody can do it like you can.

Welcome back to the podcast. I am honored to share this conversation with one of my greatest teachers, Mark Nepo, as the first interview of Homeward.
Mark is a poet and spiritual teacher whose work has accompanied seekers for decades, including his #1 New York Times bestseller The Book of Awakening. He has published twenty-six books and recorded fifteen audio projects, with his newest, The Fifth Season: Creativity in the Second Half of Life (July 2025), inviting us to live from the inside of the one life we’re given.
In this conversation, we explore how wisdom ripens across time, what tenderness asks of us in the face of pain, and how creativity becomes a practice of becoming- especially in life’s later seasons. Mark shares stories from his journey, including lessons forged through fear and uncertainty, and offers his perspective on meeting each day with presence, courage, and care.

In today's episode, I'm sharing my take on the notion that someone else out there knows the "right way" for you to share about... YOU! In this information-overload culture, it's easy to think someone else has the exact answers on marketing and messaging- but the way you speak to your community is always about what feels right and authentic to you. Today's conversation is about helping you find your path back to yourself, and ways in which you can find support that centers YOUR vision, instead of someone else's. I can't wait for you to listen!

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast!
Today’s conversation is one I’ve been so excited to share with you. I sat down with Kaitlyn Carlson, the founder and CEO of Theory Planning Partners - a boutique wealth creation firm for top female entrepreneurs. Kaitlyn is one of those rare souls who has taken everything she’s lived through (including some incredibly difficult experiences in the finance industry) and turned it into a mission to change the landscape for women and wealth.
We talked about why the traditional wealth management model just doesn’t work for most business owners (especially women) and how Kaitlyn’s approach is about creating a “work optional” life that’s rooted in freedom, purpose, and deep personal vision. Plus, we explored the emotional side of money, the shame and pressure so many women carry around finances, and how reclaiming our seat at the table changes everything - not just for us, but for our families, communities, and future generations.
This episode is an invitation to think bigger, softer, and more powerfully about what’s possible when we let ourselves be fully resourced.

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream podcast!
Today’s conversation is all about calibrating from your own inner wisdom- rather than calibrating to someone else’s.
It’s easy to believe that someone out there has the perfect 5-step formula for your success. But the truth is, no strategy will ever work the way you want it to if you’re following it from a place that feels inauthentic or misaligned.
Let this conversation be an invitation to remember that nobody knows what path is best for you- you are the way.

The incredible Amina AlTai is back on the show today to share the deeper meaning beneath her newest book, The Ambition Trap: How to Stop Chasing and Start Living. (Released TODAY!)
"Drawing on her work with Fortune 500 leaders, Olympic gold medalists, start-up founders, and former “girlbosses,” AlTai guides you through the process of reconciling your ambition, starting with healing the core wounds and insecurities currently driving you. Along the way, she introduces actionable strategies for aligning your work with your deepest “why,” leaning into your most natural gifts, nourishing yourself in the long-term pursuit of your goals, setting a sustainable pace, and allowing contentment to guide the way." - Maria Shriver
In today's conversation Amina shares why redefining "ambition" has been such an integral part of her work, how ambition fatigue can stop us from showing up for our deepest desires and what we can do to shift + work with our own personal rhythms to live a life filled with more meaning and purpose.

I'm so excited to share today's conversation with my dear friend, former coaching client + all around genius human- Kari Jean!
Kari is a mindset mentor for high-achieving, soul-searching humans who are tired of doing everything “right” and still feeling unfulfilled.
After years of chasing success and checking all the boxes, Kari hit a breaking point and decided to redefine what a meaningful life actually looks like. She now helps others do the same by guiding them to uncover what they truly want and build a life that aligns with who they really are.
By day, Kari heads up partnerships for Mastermind.com, the platform co-founded by Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi, helping to shape the future of the knowledge industry. By night (and let’s be honest, sometimes by morning too), she shares her own message through her podcast This Feels Important, her coaching work, and her debut book Fck the Hustle*.
Her work lives at the intersection of ambition and alignment, blending personal development with real-life practicality.
We dive in to the inspiration behind Kari's book, why she decided to step out of hustle culture + how we can use our hardest seasons to help us become the version of ourselves we've always wanted to be.

This week's episode is all about allowing ourselves to ask for HELP, and the ways in which we block ourselves from receiving it. If you're someone who feels like you should be able to do it all alone, or like admitting you need support is a sign of weakness, my hope is that this conversation serves as your permission slip to lean in and lean on the people who can help.
We can't do this thing alone- so why should we try?

On today's episode we have the brilliantly inspiring, Elizabeth Ralph- AKA: the Spiritual Investor.
Elizabeth is a high-level wealth strategist and intuitive investor who retired at the age of 39 in order to teach others how to reach financial freedom through non-traditional ways. She is the founder of The Spiritual Investor and the host of The Spiritual Investor podcast, the place where entrepreneurs transform from unsure investors to effortless wealth creators. Formerly a financial executive and energy trader, Elizabeth shifted her focus entirely in 2012 while feeding Cheetos to a kangaroo on a beach in Australia. She realized that in order to fulfill her purpose of saving unwanted horses from slaughter she needed to break free from the confines of the corporate world. So right then and there, she decided to go “all-in” and set up a strategy to achieve financial freedom within 10 years. Since then Elizabeth has helped countless spiritual entrepreneurs to create their own strategies for financial freedom through The Spiritual Investor framework.
In this conversation we talk all things money trauma, how to rewrite our stories + why making our choices from love instead of fear will always bring us the abundance we seek.

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast!
I am absolutely geeking out over today's podcast guest, Leslie Zane- genius marketer and trailblazer of over 30 years- talking about my very favorite topic: the subconscious mind.
Known as the pioneer of “Instinct Marketing,” founder of the first female-led brand consultancy that still exists today, and author of new book “The Power of Instinct,” Leslie Zane is a renegade. She is revolutionizing how organizations shape consumer decision making by focusing them on changing instinctive behavior – the decisions that consumers make on autopilot.
Zane’s perspective defies traditional thinking. She maintains that what consumers say is unreliable, that indirect cues are more effective than direct persuasion, and that successful ideas, brands, and political candidates have multiple associations, not just one defining identity trait. But, like many unconventional thinkers, her ideas were dismissed for years. With a chuckle, she admits, she’s had a 25-year head start practicing what behavioral science theorists are beginning to explore and consider today.
We talk about all things brand identity, marketing and how to catalyze growth in our businesses. Today's episode is a masterclass in marketing, so grab your favorite journal + a pen and let's dive in. I can't wait for you to listen!

She then went on to start an online fitness business growing it to a multiple 6 figure business in less than 6 months, climbing to the top of a network marketing company,building an SEO business for Insurance Professionals and starting their sales training organization: Weaver Sales Academy to bridge the gap between corporate training and what it takes to be successful as an insurance professional.

In 2021 after spending years chasing plastic trophies and external validation Courtney and Michael decided to make it a mission to not delay their dream life and start sharing with more high performers the importance of adventure and fun while building their empires.

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast!
In today's episode, I share my conversation with the courageous and inspiring Katie Arnold.
Katie is an award-winning journalist, longtime contributor to Outside Magazine, and author of the acclaimed 2019 memoir Running Home. A Zen practitioner and champion ultrarunner, Katie teaches writing and running retreats exploring the link between movement and creativity, wilderness and stillness. Her writing has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, ESPN The Magazine, Runner’s World, and Elle, among others. Her new book, Brief Flashings in the Phenomenal World: Zen and the Art of Running Free (Parallax Press, April 16, 2024), is a spiritual guide, a classic adventure tale, and a philosophical quest into the ultramarathon of life. Much more than a guide to how to run, Brief Flashings in the Phenomenal World is an exploration of how to be. Learn more at katiearnold.net
We dive in to the power of "beginner’s mind” and how Katie entered into a relationship with it to heal from a potentially career-ending wilderness accident. Plus, Katie shares the "why" behind her new book, incredibly important safety tips, and what it means to lean into what you're called to. I can't wait for you to listen!

I am so excited to share today's conversation with you with innovator + disruptivator, Leah McDermott!
Leah is a former Master Educator turned radical unschooling advocate, and mama of three boys. She is the owner of Your Natural Learner and Bridge Academy, where she provides resources and community for natural learning and homeschoolers around the world. After years spent in the public school classrooms, Leah recognized the disconnect between what we know to be true about how learning happens and what we were doing to our children in the system. In 2011, after having her first child, she made the decision to step away from the public learning system and began her work in encouraging and supporting homeschooling families to raise a new generation of confident and passionate lifelong learners, and today focuses on helping parents shift their mindset to trust that their children are capable of learning what they need when they need it. In today's episode we dive deep into what it means to "unschool," the challenges our children face within the current school system and what can happen when we trust our children's natural learning instincts over society's current models.
I hope this conversation serves as an invation to expand + shift your perspective if you feel called to do so. I can't wait for you to listen!

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast! Our final Encore Episode this month will be of the epic conversation I had with the one and only Gabby Bernstein back in 2022!
For over 16 years, Gabby Bernstein has been transforming lives. She's a number one, New York Times bestselling author that has penned nine books, including the Universe Has your Back, Super Attractor and her latest book, Happy Days.

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast! In this week's ENCORE EPISODE we're bringing back one of our community's favorite Why Are We Like This? episodes: Money Edition.
In today’s world, at the forefront of most of our worries and the root of many of our conflicts is one thing: money.
It’s no secret that money is essential to our ability to live, to provide, to give back and more; and that so many of us feel trapped below a glass ceiling, or living paycheck to paycheck, always slightly out of reach of financial freedom.
But what if it’s not the external world that’s keeping us from that freedom? What if our beliefs surrounding money + abundance are keeping us stuck in the same patterns of struggle + strife?
In this conversation Kristen and I dive into our own money stories + programming, and how we’ve come to change them over time to allow more abundance into our lives at every turn.

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast! This week's encore episode probably won't come as a surprise to any of you... I'm re-sharing one of my favorite conversations with beloved author, poet, friend and mentor, Mark Nepo.
Mark and I had this conversation in mid-2020, during the height of the pandemic when the world was going more than a little stir crazy. I thought it would be powerful to go back and re-listen to the wisdom shared with new eyes and an even softer heart.
With over a million copies sold, Mark Nepo has moved and inspired readers and seekers all over the world with his #1 New York Times bestseller The Book of Awakening. Beloved as a poet, teacher, and storyteller, Mark has been called "one of the finest spiritual guides of our time," "a consummate storyteller," and "an eloquent spiritual teacher." His work is widely accessible and used by many and his books have been translated into more than twenty languages. A bestselling author, he has published twenty-two books and recorded fifteen audio projects. In 2015, he was given a Life-Achievement Award by AgeNation. In 2016, he was named by Watkins: Mind Body Spirit as one of the 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People, and was also chosen as one of OWN's SuperSoul 100, a group of inspired leaders using their gifts and voices to elevate humanity.
Mark and I went straight for the good stuff during this conversation to talk about what it means to BE during this global pandemic, his new book, Book of Soul: 52 Paths to Living What Matters, and how our habit of distraction can keep up from living our lives to their fullest expression.

Today's episode is with absolute magical unicorn, Nicole Meline, who entered my world via an online exercise class. I was literally running on the treadmill WHILE taking notes about the things she was saying during the session.
Nicole mentors leaders in body and spirit to amplify their creative genius and heartward vision. She weaves movement, breath, music, poetry, and the unexpected into practices that expand the heart. Her ALTER movement and meditation practices are sanctuaries of sweat and revelatory stillness to recover joyful creativity. She is the author of the Envision Planner and Integrate Journal, celebrated workbooks for refining purpose and plans, and her digital courses are potent frameworks for transformation. Nicole is also the host of the beloved ALTER Podcast and ALTER Journeys soulful adventure retreats.
An ironman triathlete and eternal student with four masters degrees, Nicole celebrates the art of balancing hustle and flow, engaging work as creative, sustainable, sacred offering.

Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast! Today’s episode is all about the life lesson that was handed to me on a silver platter a few weeks ago when I found myself with bronchitis and lost my voice completely.
In this episode, I invite you to look at your own energy and the ways in which you could be spending (and recharging) it in a way that’s more fully aligned to your own design. Our energy IS a renewable resource, but when we’re not in tune with our own expenditure of it, it’s easy to find our tanks on ‘E’ with no re-fill in sight.

On this episode of the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast we have the miracle worker and physical healer extraordinaire, Missy Bunch.
Missy is a multi-certified movement therapist who has been educating and coaching for over 13 years.
As a young professional dancer, she battled many injuries over her career and one day she found someone who studied neurology (the study of the brain and nervous system). After one session with this person, her 4-year knee pain was completely gone. She knew she wanted to teach this approach to the world.
The importance of brain function and using the nervous system to rapidly “debug” movement patterns, decrease pain and increase performance, has led her to teach and create lightning-fast improvements with people from all walks of life.
In this episode we dive into the personal work I’ve done with Missy and the incredible results I’ve already experienced, along with going in depth on the ‘how’ and the ‘why’ behind the life-changing work she does.

Have you ever been sold a limiting belief about yourself that you bought hook, line and sinker? Or perceived yourself to be "less than" or "not enough" in some way shape or form when it came to achieving the life of your dreams?
In this week's episode of the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast, I share a mindset shift that literally shattered a limiting belief I've held since my early twenties to pieces.
New levels and new ways of being are always available to us. The question is- will your current belief system allow you to step into them? My hope is to open up a whole new world of possibilities for you by simply shifting your perspective on how you see what you identify as your weaknesses.
Are you ready? I can't wait for you to listen!

Today's episode of the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast is about a word that feels a bit more like a 4-letter word in personal development spaces: contentment.
I'm breaking the myth that satisfaction and contentment mean there is nothing left to dream of or work toward, and why basking in the joy of what is NOW in your world can actually call forth more when you're ready for it.

Welcome to May’s episode of Why Are We Like This?: Anxiety Edition
In this month’s episode, Kristen and I share on a topic that’s been popping up for both us, and for our clients + community: anxiety.
Each of us has our own experience of what it feels like to dance with this feeling, and with what stirs it up in us. This episode is all about our own personal exploration of it, along with the shifts we’ve made in our own lives to help navigate and/or relinquish it where possible.
As the world around us becomes even more overwhelming, we’ve both found the importance of managing our nervous systems, controlling what we can, and finding acceptance with (and letting go of) what we can’t.
We hope you enjoy the conversation and if you find some piece of it useful, we’d be honored if you shared and tagged us: @amberlilyestrom and @kristenhubbardwrites over on Instagram!

If you’ve ever struggled with your relationship to your body or to food, today’s conversation is a powerful one for you.
Toni Marinucci is the owner of Tips with Toni, teaching people how not to diet. Her team of Registered Dietician’s provide online nutrition coaching to help women break free from the ‘all or nothing’ mindset and encourage balance instead. Toni's mission is to end restrictive diet culture by providing simple tips to healthy living while incorporating the foods you love. She recently gave a TEDx talk and wrote a book titled Once Upon a Diet, where she discusses the parallels between dieting, dating, and romantic relationships, and how we treat them the same.
In this episode, we discuss the parallels between dieting and how we treat our bodies, our relationships, and our businesses. We also discuss the ways in which we withhold from ourselves, we disassociate, and the ways in which we perpetuate old patterns. This is such an expansive and encouraging conversation, that I hope will serve you well.

Lauryn shares a very personal part of her story, and it may be difficult for those who are healing to listen to such stories in this season of life. So, for our listening audience and family's sake, I just want to put that very sensitively. I also urge you to listen to this conversation if you're feeling up to it, because Lauryn is a gift, and her teachings as a somatic business coach and as someone who is here to help women create businesses that allow for real life to happen, are a profound blessing.

In today’s world, at the forefront of most of our worries and the root of many of our conflicts is one thing: money.
It’s no secret that money is essential to our ability to live, to provide, to give back and more; and that so many of us feel trapped below a glass ceiling, or living paycheck to paycheck, always slightly out of reach of financial freedom.
But what if it’s not the external world that’s keeping us from that freedom? What if our beliefs surrounding money + abundance are keeping us stuck in the same patterns of struggle + strife?
In this month’s episode of Why Are We Like This? Kristen and I dive into our own money stories + programming, and how we’ve come to change them over time to allow more abundance into our lives at every turn.
As we walk deeper into 2022, I’ve been feeling called to shift the way I show up on the podcast, and in my world. Today’s episode is sharing that shift with you- and also the invitation to explore the possibility that there is NO right way to do… anything.
One of the biggest expanders for me in my life has been to release the need to “get it right,” and instead follow the nudges and desires of my soul. What happens here is nothing short of miraculous, and the good news is- you couldn’t possibly get it wrong.
In This Episode:
- My intention for today’s episode and the shift in the podcast for 2022 [ :50 ]
- Letting go of our perfectionist beliefs [ 4:00 ]
- The thing that has saved me from seeking perfection [ 7:41 ]
- Understanding my own energetic home base [ 9:30 ]
- Riding the wave of our own creative musings [ 12:15 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “There is no such thing as the right way.”
- “There is nothing common or average about you.”
- “Let the energy inform the actions. The way that I feel directly correlates to what I do.”
- “It’s not about right or wrong; it’s about being moved from within by the sensation of your soul.”
- “It’s impossible to be wrong at being you.”
“Authenticity” is a word I’m hearing in all of the places and spaces these days- which is a beautiful thing to witness; but what happens when we don’t feel firm footing in what our authentic self looks like, lives like, and feels like?
Today’s bonus episode is my exploration of this word and work- and my invitation for you to deepen your journey with what it means to be your own fully authentic self.
You may plan and know where you are going, but how the experience will turn out is unknown, and that is the often the most beautiful part of the journey.

This week’s episode is all about how I’m moving through that in this season of my life and business as we expand and open the doors to our brand new program LEGACY, and beyond.

Today’s conversation is one of the most deeply meaningful and transformative ones that I’ve ever had on the podcast, and I am beyond honored to share it with you.
Today’s guest, Xavier Dagba is a trauma informed transformational life coach, shadow work facilitator, intuitive healer and EFT practitioner.
He loves to think of himself as an emotional alchemist. It is his firm belief that personal freedom can only be achieved when we allow ourselves to welcome the wisdom hidden within every emotional state, good or “bad”.
Xavier's own transformational journey brought him to dive into the universe of shadow work and he tends to think that only when you are willing to integrate your shadows, can you fully claim your power.
He feels alive the most when he helps people shed their limitations, heal, claim their power, live a life of purpose and tap into their full potential.
Xavier and I go all the way in on topics like surrender, reclaiming our victim, self-unity, the inner critic, and more. His perspective and ways of communicating his wisdom are unlike any other thought leader I have learned from, and I can’t wait for you to soak in all of the healing he offers here today.

Are you ready to get in touch with who you are at the core, using human design?
I am so excited to be joined by one of my dear friends and amazing clients, Emma Jensen. In 2018 Emma Jensen was introduced to Human Design through a coach. Beginning to learn and understand who she was at her core permitted Emma to be herself. Not who others wanted her to be or what she thought she was supposed to be, but who she truly was underneath all of the thoughts and belief patterns that were laid down by other people.
Emma became a student and curious about Human Design, and it wasn't until 2020 that she truly stepped into sharing Human Design with others. It is a passion that Emma loves to share with all people because of the tremendous impact it can have on not only the individual life but the lives of those around them.
Emma has been a lover of animals her entire life. They have been a source of comfort, reassurance and have taught Emma so many vital lessons throughout her life. It wasn't until she joined a coaching program in late 2018 that Emma discovered she could communicate with animals.
Before then, Emma didn't even realize Animal Communication was possible and something that someone could do or achieve with an animal. Once Emma embraced this newfound gift, her life completely transformed. For years, Emma wanted a career that helped animals, and Animal Communication brought clarity to that vision. It was through many animal reading that Emma was intuitively led to include energetic healings as well. Emma continues to learn so much from each animal she communicates with.
In this episode, Emma reveals exactly what human design is, and we dive into the different human design types. When we learn about our own design, we can understand how to live up to our most real + authentic self. Emma gives loads of tips and strategies around communication depending on our human design type. Tune in as we discuss the not-self themes, how to make money using our energy type, and we dig deep into our charts.

Are you ready to fully understand your soul’s purpose?
I was lucky to be on my good friend and client, Chris Yonkers’ podcast, The Secret Thoughts of CEOs. He is a lifelong student of human potential who embraces a uniquely collaborative approach to professional and personal development; one that encompasses the principles of leadership, classical sales training, and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).
He works with senior executives, entrepreneurs and highly motivated salespeople who aspire to top levels of performance and achievement. His gift is in helping people define their improvement initiatives, set realistic goals for executing them, and align their natural abilities with their core values to create extraordinary outcomes, both in business and in life.
Early on, Chris was impressed by the variety of ways in which people addressed challenges in their lives, handled pressure, or overcame adversity to achieve their goals. Whether he is addressing the qualities that make great athletes excel on the field of battle, drive musicians to the top of their craft, or motivate businesspeople to step up and reap greater rewards for their work, Chris tailors his message of achievement.
Having recognized and maximized his own breakthroughs, he knows how to set people up emotionally for success. He excels at establishing an environment of mutual trust in which his clients can find their “zone” and stave off professional burnout.
He is a highly sought-after speaker and workshop facilitator whose programs are engineered to meet the demands and exceed the expectations of high-end achievers. An accomplished martial artist and practitioner of yoga, Chris extracts valuable business lessons through Sanchin-Ryu karate—in which he holds a 7th degree black belt—and Ashtanga yoga philosophy.
In this episode, Chris and I go in depth on gender in the workplace and mom guilt. We talk about the mindset of women as business leaders and CEOs. We peeled back all sorts of layers to better understand the dynamics and factors that most men don't have to think about that women have learned to adapt to, paradigms holding entrepreneurs back from true success + fulfillment and what we can do about it.

Each week Cathy encourages thousands and thousands of listeners to find more purpose in their life and get paid to do what they love full time.

How do we create a life that is a true expression of who we are?
Today, my soul-sister Sarah Jenks joins the show for an incredibly powerful conversation. Before Sarah had kids, she devoted years of her life to being at peace with her body. The freedom and joy she experienced birthed her international program, Live More Weigh Less, where thousands of women have found freedom from emotional eating and fallen in love with their bodies. Live more weigh less was celebrated in publications such as Forbes, Success Magazine, Health Magazine, Parenting Magazine and Martha Stewart Living.
After Sarah had her first child, she felt like all of the freedom, magic, and sparkle of her life and soul were sucked out of her. Being a mother was so all-consuming, and she realized she was falling into the trap that so many women get stuck in. The trap of putting everybody’s happiness before our own.
Sarah spent many years in a tireless search for her soul through working with shamans, coaches, spiritual teachers and traveling to many sacred sites. This helped Sarah land in a life that feels like a true expression of who she is. Sarah rarely does things that she doesn’t want to do + she feels fully supported by her husband in their home life.
Sarah has an incredibly deep connection with her kids, husband, soul, nature, and the magic that exists in the world around us. Now Sarah stands for women to end the pattern of taking scraps after everyone in their lives has feasted.
In this episode, Sarah Jenks and I talk about navigating the internalized ways the patriarchy gets us stuck and how women need a sacred feminine practice to understand their life and the world. Through Sarah’s transformational work, she teaches us how to reconnect with our relationships with ourselves, our marriage, our motherhood and our nature.
In this Episode You’ll Learn:
- All about today’s guest, Sarah Jenks [ 1:20 ]
- How Sarah grew into the woman she is today [ 5:50 ]
- The ways Sarah found her divine feminine [ 11:00 ]
- About our ancestral fears [ 18:50 ]
- How to navigate mom guilt as an ambitious woman [ 26:40 ]
- Why our children will not feel internalized patriarchy [ 35:25 ]
- How to take responsibility in our marriages [ 44:25 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “Feel permission to be yourself.”
- “Experience who we truly are.”
- “We have everything we need within us.”
- “When we look at life as a mystery school, we can have more compassion for our lessons.”

Are you making consistent income selling your services?
Jereshia Hawk, is an income strategist, business coach, and preacher of Truth. She teaches service-based business owners how to sell effectively, serve impeccably, and finally create consistent income to crush it online.
Jereshia was a full-time corporate career leading multimillion-dollar engineering projects. Jereshia would go to meetings, and people assumed she was the assistant; it wasn’t uncommon for people to ask her to grab them coffee.
A mistake is a mistake, and that’s no problem, but this is part of a bigger picture. The lack of representation of women of color in leadership is APPALLING, and it’s a BIG part of the reason Jereshia is here doing this work today.
While still in corporate, Jereshia started her coaching business, and Jereshia got more and more clear on who she served, how she helps, and what the benefits were. After three months of consistent income and a serious conversation with God, Jereshia quit her job and stepped fully into her business.
Now, Jereshia lives a life of freedom. Jereshia lives a life where she doesn’t have to look at her bank account to decide what kind of experience she will have. Instead, Jereshia decides the experience she wants and works backward from that. Because reverse engineering is what having a business allows you to do– it will enable you to choose what you want, embrace who you are, and create the life you desire.
In this episode, Jereshia brings the HEAT. We have a robust conversation about selling. (Spoiler alert: You do not need a sales page to sell!) In reality, you need to create connection + conversations. We dig deep into the unique barriers that women and women of color face in corporate settings. Plus, we speak about why we need to be willing to do the work and how Jereshia utilizes ad campaigns and selling through direct messages.
In this Episode You’ll Learn:
- All about today’s guest, Jereshia Hawk [ 0:45 ]
- How to sell without sales pages [ 6:25 ]
- Why we need to sell high-ticket items [ 9:05 ]

- How women + women of color do not have a voice in corporate settings [ 24:50 ]
- Why we need to be willing to do the work until it works [ 31:00 ]
- How to not only make money but make profits [ 39:40 ]
- The ways that Jereshia utilizes ad campaigns [ 43:20 ]
- Tips for selling through direct messages [ 48:20 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:

- “Faith is a verb – it is something that we do.”

What is holding you back from the life you want?
Today’s guest, Christine Hassler, is a best-selling author, keynote speaker, master coach, and podcast host who is committed to guiding people and organizations into their highest potential. She left her successful job as a Hollywood agent at 25 to pursue a life she could be passionate about . . . but it did not come easily. After being inspired by her own unexpected challenges and experiences, she realized her journey was indeed her destination.
In 2005, she wrote her first book 20 Something 20 Everything and then The 20 Something Manifesto in 2008. Her latest best-selling book Expectation Hangover: Free Yourself from Your Past, Change Your Present and Get What You Really Want is the guidebook for how to treat disappointment on the emotional, mental, behavioral and spiritual levels.
Today, she supports individuals in answering the questions: “Who Am I, What do I want, and How do I get it?” Christine is a master coach who combines life coaching with the principles of spiritual psychology. She is passionate about supporting people out of suffering and limitation and into fulfillment. Her superpowers of intuition and compassion help people breakthrough challenges that at one time seemed insurmountable. Bottom line: she helps people get “over it and on with it!” with love.

Tim Storey, a man I am honored to call a dear friend and one of my greatest teachers, is a perfect example of this. Tim leads with love and faith in all things, and offers such radical empathy in the face of all that he has experienced as a Black man in this country.

In what feels like the mass and collective chaos of today’s world, it can be easy to keep our focus on everything and everyone else.
It is no secret that we are living in a different world today than we were 3 months ago- one that is more awake, more vigilant, more aware and more activated + polarized than ever before. It’s easy to keep our focus outward on the problem, but doing so is not a way to get to the solution.
In today’s solo episode, I’m speaking on what it means to get to the ROOTS of change, and why radical personal responsibility is more important in this moment than it ever has been.
I truly believe that we can’t enact change in our external world, if we don’t first begin with seeing what needs to be changed in ourselves.
Be sure to grab some paper and a pen for some journal prompts at the end of the episode (or look ahead in the show notes for them!) The world needs us now, in this moment, to show up for it- let’s get started.

- Things we all need to be reminded of right now [ 23:57 ]

- What triggers are arising for me today and where are they tethered?
- Why am I trying to over control this?
- What do I believe the control is going to save me from?

In light of the current social justice movement + Revolution for the liberation of Black American’s, I have decided to re-release some of the most impactful and enlightening conversations I have had on the podcast with Black women and men.
These are conversations that have educated and inspired listeners over the years, and my hope is that now that an even brighter light is being shone upon the issues covered in these conversations- they will continue to deepen our understanding of the current tasks at hand.
As many of you know, Jeanine Staples is a force to be reckoned with, and a woman I have called a friend and teacher for years. She was one our most talked about 2019 Ignite Your Soul Summit speakers, and the work she is doing in the world is unparalleled.
We had this conversation back in 2017, and white supremacy and white privilege were two of the many topics we covered back then, making this a really powerful discussion to bring back into the light today.
Jeanine stunned the world (and me) with her TED Talk, “How To Die Peacefully”, when she challenged the notion that humans are born, they live and then they die. No- Jeanine believes we are born and then we die a thousand tiny deaths. She claims, we can only learn to live, when we learn to die those deaths peacefully.
… and this is just what I learned before our conversation.
Dr. Jeanine Staples is the Associate Professor of Literacy and Language, African American Studies, and Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Penn State University. She is the founder of “The Supreme Love Project” , a movement which seeks to embolden marginalized people to heal their souls and liberate themselves.

Soul Shifting Quotes: * “My generation of terror was so complete and so huge, I didn’t have that ability to bide my time and create a status quo. I had to break.” * “I was at what I thought was my bottom. And the voice of God, the Holy Spirit said… “Go deeper.” * “There’s so many of us who run from pain. It’s suffering that we need to cease, not pain. Suffering is this long term uninterrupted source of despair without hope. That’s what we need to move away from. But pain, pain is actually what we need to generate bigger emotional muscle. To grow the capacity to go deeper.” * “Let your child get attuned to their body. Because their bodies are instruments for their emotionality.” * “Our salvation and our liberation project would not exist, unless there was something we were in bondage to. And that bondage is your pain. Best to become really enamored with it.” * “You can only be satiated from the inside out.” * “Do I feel real? Or do I feel like I am wearing labels and descriptions that had been given to me.” * “I had to really do the work of saying, I am not the woman I want to be. I am not the woman I say I am. And I want to be congruent. I want to BE that person, and not perform that person. * “Your interior life is the precedent to any other exterior attachment or endeavor that you want to take part of.”

In today’s solo episode, I talk today about the invitation + the series of openings that are happening for all of us during this chaotic time in our world.
While this time can be used as an opportunity and a blessing – it does not diminish any aspect of negativity from COVID-19. The truth is, friends, we can suffer and still be okay at the same time. Even in the midst of so much uncertainty, there can still be something that pulls us forward on this beautiful path. We can accept the invitation we’ve been given to look deeper and more closely at something we have missed all along - the simplicity + beauty in our lives and businesses.
Now is the time to also understand that the strategies we’ve been using in both of them will not work until we are consciously ready to employ them. If our self-concept is not aligned, our plan will not work. In this week’s episode, I share what it means to rewrite your story + redefine your success.
(Hey, we’re all stuck inside- no time like the present!)
In this Episode You’ll Learn:
- About how I am sending love + gratitude for those impacted by COVID-19 [ 2:40 ]
- Why this time is an opportunity + a blessing [ 7:10 ]

- How to find opportunities to grow in a sustainable model [ 16:15 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “Humanity always comes together.”
- “In some ways, we have never felt more connected.”
- “Find the roots.”
- “Our businesses' lack of success has everything to do with the belief in our success."
- “Try softer + love bigger.”

I want to also extend my appreciation to our healthcare workers, grocery store personnel, first responders and beyond who are on the front lines in battling this virus and also taking care of us.
As small business owners, there are a lot of moving parts afoot with our immediate need to now be working from home and also taking care of our kids (read: homeschooling them, as well). I don’t know about you, but in our first week of self-quarantine and social distancing, we rode the waves of emotion and this new normal in our own way..
But over the weekend, I took some time to recenter and recalibrate.
I woke up feeling really aligned and energized with the call to stand in my own personal leadership.
This message is feeling exceptionally important for us as business leaders and the leaders in our homes at present.
In this episode, you will learn: * What assuming your personal leadership role really means. * Why the choices we make in any given moment make a significant impact on our emotional state and our business results. * What Radical Personal Responsibility (RPR) has to do with it all. * How to focus on what is mission critical in this moment and pivot to support your audience’s needs. * How to diffuse anxiety and overwhelm.
I am sending you LOVE LOVE LOVE in these trying times. We have a FREE Facebook community called Better Toget(her) where I am hosting daily conversations and support for visionary entrepreneurs just like you.

As we navigate the days ahead with the complexities of the coronavirus impacting the US and countries around the world, mastering our own ability to access peace of mind is going to be more important than every before.
I recorded a guided visualization experience as a gift to help you soothe yourself during the days ahead and remember that while they will be everything BUT perfect, they also come chocked full of the stuff so many of us have been craving all along: full presence in our own lives.
I am inviting myself in these weeks ahead to roll my sleeves up and ask myself WHY about every single uncomfy experience that lands on my path.
This is a PRIME repatterning opportunity for each and every one of us....a hard reset + invite to recommit to what matters most of all.
This is what evolution looks like, my friends.❤️
Do the right thing. Take care or yourselves + one another. Call each other everyday. Show up LIVE for your community.
Meditate. Breathe. Hydrate. Sleep. Write. TRUST.
We can do this.

Celebrity holistic health coach, internationally recognized yoga teacher, author, and speaker Koya Webb joins me for a soul-defining conversation. Koya’s core mission is to promote daily self-care, oneness and eco-friendly living to combat some of the world’s biggest challenges including mental health, social injustices and global warming.
Koya is the founder of Get Loved Up, an international lifestyle community and Yoga School that inspires mental, spiritual and physical health through an app, online courses, retreats, in-person yoga teacher training events and the Get Loved Up Podcast.
She is the author of LET YOUR FEARS MAKE YOU FIERCE: How to Turn Common Obstacles into Seeds for Growth, which addresses daily self-assessment and mindfulness, understanding how to make fear your friend, and using the power of holistic health to heal – all messages she promotes to her devout Instagram following of over one million followers.
As a former competitive track and field athlete training for the Olympics, Koya first got introduced to yoga after a debilitating track injury. Once recognizing the physical and mental benefits of yoga, she shifted her focus to yoga, personal training, and life coaching -- combining the work ethic of an athlete with practical holistic health practices that anyone can follow to live a healthy and active lifestyle.
Through Get Loved Up, Koya aims to dramatically decrease the number of people who suffer with chronic diseases associated with an unhealthy diet and lifestyle through daily self-care, plant-based nutrition and eco-friendly living. The Get Loved Up app features various yoga flows, sculpting workouts and meditations, along with vegan recipes, progress charts and a community board to help users achieve and maintain their wellness goals.
In this episode, Koya speaks about how fear is simply feedback and why self-love is the most significant act we do for ourselves. It is once we fully love ourselves that we are able to help others, and then go on to impact the world. And that when we get under the belly of fear, we understand that it is simply giving us information on where we need to pivot.

As 2019 is nearing its close, it’s easy to look back over all the things we “didn’t” get to, or “didn’t” accomplish. What I’ve realized over the last 12 months is that so many of us live from a place of constant doing, and still somehow we feel like we didn’t get it all done.

In today’s episode, I am sharing a mini-coaching session with you through my 4-part process to help you connect even deeper in to understanding your past and integrating it with your biggest vision for your life.
I addressed the importance of making peace with our pain head-on in order to transcend the stories that hold us in bondage.
And I also share a story of a conversation with a loved one that changed my life. I uncovered how standing in our TRUTH changes things and the notion that people pleasing is equivalent to lying to the people that we love.
Yet, the problem that most of us face, however, is that we’ve had so many examples of moments in which we have spoken our truth and the people we love left us or refused to accept us.
In the story I share today, this actually didn’t happen(!!) and the learning that I received as a result was a total game changer that is perfectly poised to support you during this Thanksgiving week here in the US.

Have you ever found yourself worrying so much about the outcome that you can’t just enjoy the journey?
In this week’s Focus Friday I’m looking back at this time last year when I was right in the middle of my home expansion project- one that felt way harder than I ever anticipated it would.
A year later, I’ve had some massive realizations about the patterning and programming that often leaves us feeling anxious and worried, and the ways in which we can reframe and let go of the worry- so we can lean into and be present with the joy.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- A little Black Friday teaser about the Ignite Your Soul Summit [ 2:27 ]
- How easily do we give away our joy? [ 3:51 ]
- The outdated pattern that needs to be changed [ 7:10 ]
- What actually causes our greatest suffering [ 12:20 ]
- What happens when we look back on our lives [ 13:25 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “All of the things we’ve ever worried about have always worked out.”
- “Our biggest challenges are not actually the problem. What is causing our suffering is our patterning.”
- “It is always working out for me.”
- “What if we lived into the solution, rather than living in the problem?”
- “Our physical experience is a reflection of our inner condition.”

In this week’s Focus Friday, I’m inviting each and every one of us to live in the NOW.
Life unfolds in this. very. moment; however, how often do we let the present slip away from us?
I share my own personal story about how I catch myself imagining losing my beloved cat, even though he is sitting right on my lap. The lesson in this, for me, is that finding this moment is about learning how to slow down, be in the present, and listen. The greatest gift we can receive from another is their presence, which means it’s also the greatest gift we can give to ourselves.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- What happens when I remove myself from the present moment [ 2:50 ]
- How to slow down and be in the moment [ 6:10 ]
- Why stopping to listen can rescue us [ 8:15 ]
- Fully immersing ourselves in the now will set us up for more beautiful experiences in the future [ 13:30 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “There is no discernment between what we desire and what we focus on.”
- “At times, we can find ourselves being swept away from all of it.”

Why is it so challenging to overcome the fear of loving yourself?
Today's guest, Paul Fishman, is behind the "self-love is the best medicine" movement, and he wants us to know that each and every one of us matters. Paul’s work in the world is centered around utilizing self-love as our greatest strength, and using that strength to accomplish our goals.
At the age of 25, Paul came out of the closet after years of living in fear and feeling as if he needed to hide his truth. He found himself 75 pounds overweight, $75,000 in credit card debt and suffering from severe depression. In overcoming that, he was able to discover that his love for himself was the missing piece to the equation that changes everything.

Are you looking for simple ways to balance your mind, body, and soul?
Today's guest, Dr. Elson Haas, approaches diagnosis and treatment with the maxim "Lifestyle first, Natural therapies next, drugs or surgery last."
His unique integration of Natural, Eastern, and Western medical approaches, which he calls NEW Medicine, is built on restoring proper body physiology and supporting healthy cells and tissues to promote healing. It recognizes proper nutrition as the cornerstone of health and also includes elimination diets and detoxification practices, often with a seasonal focus.
Dr. Haas has practiced this philosophy for more than 40 years in his work as an integrative family physician, incorporating these practices within an insurance model at his clinic, the Preventive Medical Center of Marin in San Rafael, CA, where he and an extensive team of practitioners and staff have provided care to their patients since 1984.
In this episode, Dr. Haas explains how, as humans, we are on this planet to learn and grow. When we block that growth, we create resistance in the body. Traditional Chinese medicine sees this very quickly, things need to flow through our bodies.
Dr. Haas reveals the 5 keys to staying healthy:
- Nutrition: eat wholesome foods, avoid junk + chemicals.
- Exercise: finding something that we actually like to do.
- Sleep: we need to sleep to recharge ourselves + get energy.
- Stress: learn how to get along with people + how not to get along with people.
- Attitude: what is our approach to the world + ourselves?

Have you ever felt drained by spending time with people who gave off negative vibes?
In this week’s Focus Friday we are talking about staying in our lane + creating sacred boundaries.
The common theme around boundaries is building fences to keep people away from us. To me, that is not very sustainable because we would have to be on border control 24/7.
We must empower ourselves to make the choices that are best for our hearts + souls, and honor our own beat to realize what is in our best interest.
In This Episode:
I have a weird relationship with boundaries [ 3:40 ]
Back away slowly to create a buffer [ 7:00 ]
Ditch the rules + zoom in with our own [ 8:35 ]
Giving ourselves a release [ 10:20 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
“I’m not here to breathe in your fumes.”
“Be responsible for how we uphold our own vibration.”
“Create sacred boundaries to allow both of you to spread your wings and soar.”

Many of us have created our own businesses to give us freedom from the lifestyle we were formerly living…
But there is a key to creating a business that offers you that freedom- and it’s all in our mindset.
Today’s guest, Emily Williams is a success coach, entrepreneur, and author with a seven-figure business who, at one point, couldn’t get a job at Starbucks.
After experiencing a quarter life crisis, she moved from Ohio to London (where she knew no one!) and in 2014 launched her business, I Heart My Life.

What would our lives look like if we weren’t always working for our own worth?
In this week’s Focus Friday, and we are talking about something that always lands in my inbox and a topic I hear from others so often: worthiness.
At the end of the day, worthiness is an illusion. We are ALL worthy of our big dreams. Once we live in the abundant now, we recognize how worthiness is a faulty premise we build our lives upon.
Worthiness can keep us from greatness + the doubt that we feel about our own personal worth is what stops us on the trail to truly living.
In This Episode:
- Worthiness is an illusion [ 2:15 ]
- Our children are worthy of unconditional love [ 4:30 ]
- Stop waging wars with ourselves [ 7:15 ]
- What would our lives look like if we were not working for our worth? [ 8:50 ]
- Permitting ourselves to pursue [ 11:20 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “Take a leap, connect the dots, and add up the miraculous equation of a near-death experience.”
- “There is nothing to prove here. Stop fighting the battle against yourself.”
- “It’s in this place and this space where we can stop working for worthy and instead live into the fullness of who we really are.”
- “I don’t have to work for love because I know how to love unconditionally.”
- “Our fear is what makes us so much more alike than we are different.”
- “Recognize that worthiness is simply an illusion, not the truth.”

I know I’m not alone in saying that sometimes it feels like everyone else has got it all figured out, while your own life feels like one big perpetual ‘work in progress.’
Which is why I needed to have this conversation with you; because there are days (like today), when I’m right there with you. Some days (weeks.. months.. seasons)- don’t quite go along with the plan; and I’ve finally learned that this is actually part of the plan (whether I want it to be or not)..
Today’s Focus Friday is all about honoring you and whatever season of your life that you’re in. It’s about stepping into the sacred space that is this moment, and it’s about making room for what’s yet to fill it in the next.
In this episode you’ll learn: * Being in the season that you’re in in your life, business and relationships [ 0:41 ] * One of my biggest day to day challenges as a mamapreneur [ 3:07 ] * What happens when we get stuck “doing” instead of “being” [ 10:01 ] * How can you carve out time to have a daily conversation with yourself? [ 17:20 ] * How to use our visions to inspire us rather than defeat us [ 18:15 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes: * “If I can’t be in alignment for myself, then you better believe I’m not going to be in alignment for the people I love the most.” * “I want you to stop racing and competing with people who are in a completely different race.” * “Be on the start line of your own race; be in your own lane. Remember why you chose what you chose for this life and practice being in it.” * “We have to stop using our dreams and our desires as a weapon against this present version of ourselves- and allow them to be something that inspires us rather than reminds us of how far we are from where we want to go.” * “Make room for the inspiration that’s going to lead you to the creation of what’s next.” * “I’m here for the expansion, I’m here for the love, I’m here for the growth; and the pace at which I do that is going to be different from the pace at which others do that- and there’s nothing wrong with that.”

Today’s guest, Irene O’Garden, has won or been nominated for prizes in nearly every writing category from stage to e-screen, hardcovers, children’s books as well as literary magazines and anthologies.
O’Garden’s critically acclaimed play, Women On Fire, starring Judith Ivey, was twice extended and played to sold-out houses Off-Broadway at the Cherry Lane Theatre. It was nominated for a Lucille Lortel Award for Best Solo Show and is published by Samuel French. Two of its monologues are published in Best Women’s Stage Monologues.
Her new play, Little Heart, about artist Corita Kent, won her a Berilla Kerr Playwriting Fellowship and was awarded full development at the New Harmony Play Project.
In this episode, Irene and I embrace the paradise of a writer’s mind. Although writing is a solitary process; the impulse is communicating with others.
Irene shares many tips for those of us who are newer writers on the path + committing ourselves more deeply to our writing practice. Especially ways in which to write in the landscape of a busy life.
Later, we immerse ourselves in Irene’s book Risking the Rapids + how she wrote about her family members. Irene then weighs in on victimhood, taking inspiration from others, and the inquiring consciousness.
In This Episode:
- Today’s guest, Irene O’Garden [ 6:25 ]
- Writing is a safe place of healing expression [ 9:15 ]
- Spontaneity creates order [ 11:20 ]
- Navigating the fullness of life + finding the time to write [ 17:20 ]
- Risking the Rapids [ 27:45 ]
- Write what you must write + decide the destination [ 30:40 ]
- Victimhood is an unpractical way to live [ 38:55 ]
- Should we read another person’s work while trying to write our own? [ 42:55 ]
- Writing is a process + needs no maintenance [ 47:00 ]
- Find a therapist to help you talk about family struggles [ 52:20 ]
- The inquiring consciousness [ 56:00 ]
- Irene’s most beloved writers [ 57:30 ]
- Irene finally got a pet canary [ 60:30 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “The kindness part is important too; that you’re around people who are treating your dream with kindness.”
- “So often we are afraid to look within ourselves. It is actually within us where that universal energy, love, power, and healing takes place.”
- “Noticing within myself something is knocking on my heart; it wants to be written down.”
- “If you can train yourself to relax in any situation, you can feel what is going on inside of yourself in a very loving way.”
- “There is nothing that affects us more than the family that we were brought up in.”
- “What we want to do is enlarge our vision, scope, and heart to include what is going on behind the behaviors of the people we love.”

This is a PSA for all of my sisters out there who have been waiting for permission.

In This Episode:

- Telling our stories [ 5:30 ]

Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “These men will throw money, time, and energy at their growth. They will stop at nothing to grow their brands.”
- “We show up to play pass; we don’t show up to win.”
- “We aren’t giving anyone the opportunity to like what is ours.”
- “I want every one of my soul sisters to be incredibly wealthy. Millionaire-status girlfriends.”
- “Let’s get on the field, put on the cleats, and score the goals because we are here to win the game.”

In today’s Focus Friday, I’m reminding us all (myself included) that we are more than worthy of support from our friends, families, and supporters.
When we dare to ask for it, it’s impossible for our lives to remain stagnant… because when we do, a new Universe is opened up to us.
We know what we need to do + we understand what it is going to take. If the answer is no, it does not have to mean we are unworthy... it is simply just the next step on the path.
My hope is that this episode will serve as the nudge you need to find the courage to ask for whatever you’ve been waiting on.
In This Episode:
- Feeling unworthy of support [ 1:15 ]
- Have the courage to ask [ 4:15 ]
- Asking Mark Nepo to be on the podcast [ 6:40 ]
- Everyone is just a person working on their deepest emotions [ 9:10 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “Getting ready to be ready. Who is the one who decides when you are ready?”
- “99% of the conversations that have been on this podcast would not have occurred had someone not had the courage to ask.”
- “Be unattached to the outcome. Remain unattached to the person’s answer.”

Sharing today’s interview with you is quite honestly one of the greatest gifts I could have ever dreamed of giving my listeners. It has been a lifetime in the making + a dream come true, and I couldn’t be more honored to have had this sacred soul-conversation with the one, the only- Mark Nepo.
Mark Nepo moved and inspired readers and seekers all over the world with his #1 New York Times bestseller The Book of Awakening. Beloved as a poet, teacher, and storyteller, Mark has been called “one of the finest spiritual guides of our time,” “a consummate storyteller,” and “an eloquent spiritual teacher.” His work is widely accessible and used by many and his books have been translated into more than twenty languages. A bestselling author, he has published twenty books and recorded fourteen audio projects. In 2015, he was given a Life-Achievement Award by AgeNation. And in 2016, he was named by Watkins: Mind Body Spirit as one of the 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People, and was also chosen as one of OWN’s SuperSoul 100, a group of inspired leaders using their gifts and voices to elevate humanity. In 2017 Mark became a regular columnist for Spirituality & Health Magazine. Mark is the author of twenty books, his most recent is More Together Than Alone: Discovering the Power and Spirit of Community in Our Lives and in the World, published by Atria Books in July 2018.
Friends, you are going to want to grab a pen + paper for this one; every word was full of deeply profound wisdom, and I encourage you to listen again and again. I hope you walk away feeling as grounded and present in your life as ever, leaving with the knowing that, as Mark so eloquently stated- there is no other place to go than HERE.

One of the most common reason we hear from potential clients who make the decision NOT to move forward in investing in themselves is because of a loved one.
This reasoning is so common, I can’t help but roll my eyes. And I say this not to be insensitive, but to bring AWARENESS to a newfound perspective. The dreams we are being called to pursue are not there by accident…they are the taps from the deepest parts of ourselves to step in to our own greatness.
When we do this, the life-changing bi-product impacts the people we love the most, even those who are gripped by fear and voice their concerns when we are ready to take big leaps in our lives.
In this episode, I share what happened when my biggest dreams came true and how those results dramatically impacted my family in a life-altering way.
I also delve in to the ways I’ve built my belief in myself and learned how to create space to not only invest in myself, but to do so with excitement and joy (the complete opposite of fear).
If you are ready to make a big leap, yourself, and are struggling with resistance and, perhaps, are finding yourself blaming your beloveds for why you can't take the next step. This episode is for you.
Need help? We’ve got you covered… Click here for your breakthrough call
In today’s Focus Friday, I invite each of us to visualize our dreams and examine the resistance that’s pulling us away from them.
It doesn’t matter how much money we have or how many people follow us; it will never make us feel as worthy as our confidence in ourselves can.
It is my hope that by the end of this episode, you will remember why it is that sweet dream of yours is in your heart to begin with, and you will be able to envision what is possible for you when it finally does (because it will) come to life.
In This Episode:
- The final stretch of my home improvement project [ 2:30 ]
- Visualize our dreams + examine the resistance [ 4:20 ]
- What brings us to our knees? Open the doorway… [ 8:00 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “Whatever resistance is coming up and meeting you in the midst of that dreaming, I want you to recognize how connected it all is.”
- “We are being invited to detach from all the extraneous external things that we have told ourselves a story about.”
- “Remembering why I want my dreams in the first place- It’s always and forever about how the achievement is going to make me feel.”
- “Dreams are here to remind us of who we really are and make us feel more alive.”
- “If the dream is in you, it’s for you.”

Ben and I sat down to dial in to our 2018 Year in Review. I shared these exercises with my community earlier this week (you can download that guide here).
This has fast become one of our favorite rituals to round out the year and orient ourselves as we walk in to the next one…and this New Year’s Eve celebration did not disappoint.
For the first time, we took the day and went to a coffee shop to go through the process of reviewing each month, looking at what was accomplished, how we felt during those seasons and how it all rolled up at the end of the year.
We spent time looking ahead and grounding ourselves in to the ways we want to feel and our increased focus on how we want to BE (which is a worthy challenge for these Virgo DOERS).
In this episode we shared: * A 2018 recap on how much has changed. * Our internal work and what has resulted from committing so deeply to it. * What a full year of homeschooling has taught us. * The commitment we’re making in our marriage. * What shifted for us in our money mindset. * The mega-project that changed our lives from the inside out. * What we’re most excited about walking in to 2019 together. * Our areas of focus for the New Year in our family and careers.
Thank you for your continued support and being a part of our sacred community. We appreciate each and every one of you and look forward to continuing our growth and collective expansion together in 2019!
Happy New Year!

Have you ever heard the saying, “If you argue for your limitations, they’re yours to keep”?
This holds true in all things- for scarcity, for our unhappiness in our lives, for our lack of self-love.
In today’s Focus Friday, I ask the very simple question: What are you fighting for? In hopes that it will ignite a spark in you that helps shine the light on the fact that you are worthy of so much more than you have fought for…
That at any moment, should you choose to do so, you can stop the fight and simply step in to the fullness + magnitude of who you truly are.

- “If I believe that we live in an abundant Universe, living in a place of scarcity is contradictory.”
- “I’m not going to fight with you about whether you’re worthy or you’re not- I just hold that belief consistently.”
- “We are all born worthy. We all come in to this life with the invitation to be loved by others simply because of our being.”
- “Your worth is presupposed; it has never been a question.”

Sustainable wealth isn’t about what everyone thinks it’s about. It’s not about buying all the designer clothes you want, or the size of your home or the make on your car (though those things are all bonuses too!)… it’s about so much more.
Sustainable wealth is about creating freedom in your life + your business, so that you can get along with the business of LIVING. It’s about building a bigger container for that great big work you’re meant to be doing, and magnifying the impact you are able to make.

-
1: Know your numbers [ 2:42 ]

LORE: the generational passing down of knowledge by story, myth or legend. It is the way through which our lenses are formed, and it is through it that our entire belief systems come to be.
Today’s guest, Jeanette Schneider, knows all too well about the power our own stories have over our lives. She has set out to help women rewrite theirs- and to help them pass new stories down to the daughters + sons that will go on after them.
Jeanette Schneider is the founder of Lore Advocacy, a network of professional women whose goal is to inspire women to change the world through a gender lens of equality, self-actualization and the fearless shattering of glass ceilings. Jeanette stated Lore and Little Things (https://loreandlittlethings.com/) in 2015 as a platform catering to women who want to be part of a conversation that is positive, present and offers no advice other than trust yourself and harm no one. Her debut book, Lore: Harnessing Your Past to Create Your Future was released in September 2018.
I am honored to share this beautifully moving conversation with you today. My hope is that it will spark you to uncover and rewrite the damaging stories that have been handed down to you; so that the little ones we will one day send out in to the world won’t have to. In this episode:

Each of us has rules set-up in our lives that were designed, in some shape or another, to keep us safe.
But at some point those are the same rules that hold us back, that allow us to believe that we have limitations...and that keep us from taking the leaps and incredible risks that are the keys to living a life we’ve always dreamt of.
In today’s Focus Friday, I share my own method to understanding where my own rules came from, how to determine if they are ours or someone else’s, and how to let them go when we’re ready to.
In this episode:
- The construct that is lending itself to our own perceived limitations [ :41 ]
- The difference between rules and principles [ 2:01 ]
- An exercise to help you understand your own rules and who they truly belong to [ 3:51 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “Our rules have been given to us from other well-intentioned people who wanted to keep us safe.”
- “What do you want to keep, and what rules are you ready to let go of?”
- “Your life belongs to you and only you- it is yours to create and design.”

I left my corporate job behind 5 years ago in an effort to have the chance to watch my daughter grow up + to be present for the moments, the milestones + the memories.
Unfortunately, what I didn’t get to leave behind, though I didn’t realize it at the time, was mom guilt- the innate feeling that lies in all of us moms (human + fur alike) that tells us that we’re not doing it right, not there enough or (insert your chosen guilt here.)

Somewhere along the line- maybe it was in grade school, or maybe it was in my corporate career- I was taught through experience that trusting others + letting them in just wasn’t safe.
Needless to say, when I left that corporate career, the thought of sisterhood felt scary. But over the last 4+ years, I have built the deepest relationships and forged the most powerful bonds with the women I’ve dared to open up to.
In today’s Focus Friday, I introduce you to some of my most sacred sisters, dive in to how trusting one another has transformed our lives (+ businesses), and why we’re so much stronger when we have a power posse standing behind us cheering us on.
In this episode:
- The sacred bond of sisterhood + the incredible women in my Maine Mastermind [ 1:58 ]
- What we need more of in our lives + businesses [ 9:00 ]
- Why we need each other [ 12:03 ]
- My invitation to you + your sisters [ 12:50 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “One of the most incredibly invaluable by-products of launching my business has been the sacred friendships that have resulted.”
- “We are better together than we are apart.”
- “Telling the world about another woman’s light does not dim our own- it helps us to all shine brighter together.”
- “I do not believe in competition. I believe in collaboration, I believe in cheering each other on, I believe that there is enough to go around- and that the world needs more of our voices.”

In light of what’s been occurring in our country over the last few weeks with Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and her testimony of her sexual assault in front of the entire country… I thought it was important to re-share this powerful interview.
There is nothing more profoundly healing than having the ability to share your truth- your hard, messy, scary and sometimes inconvenient truth- with someone, and have them look you in the eyes and say, “I believe you.”
This podcast expresses the importance of those 3 words, and more-so the importance of using our voice + sharing our stories in a world that has spent centuries trying to keep them silenced.
Your story matters, YOU matter… and I hope today’s episode reminds you just how true that is.
Najwa is an author, a poet and a motivational powerhouse who has used the act of sharing her truths to liberate herself, and to help millions of others do so as well in the process. Her books “Mind Platter” and “The Nectar of Pain” will rock you to your core. Through her own suffering, Najwa learned how to unload the burden of her shame by finding her voice and using it to speak up and speak out. She is unapologetically real, and encourages you and I to join her in that movement... and wouldn’t you know, that is music to my ears!
This conversation brought us both to tears once or twice, and I have no doubt it will do the same for you. Make sure you grab some tissues for this one (I guarantee you’re going to need a few) and get ready to be moved by this small but fierce woman!
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How looking outside of ourselves for love will leave us feeling empty and “homeless” * How to climb our mountains of struggle, instead of carrying them * Why anyone’s opinion of our story should never deter us from telling it * The 3 most important words we can say when someone is brave enough to tell us their truth * How to be a more present parent and bear witness to our children’s struggles so they don’t ever have to feel alone. * Why our own voice is the most important voice we will ever hear
THINGS I ASK: * At what point of your journey did you decide to engage in the most intimate relationship of your life; the one with yourself? * As parents of sensitive children, how can we better witness and support our babies so that they don’t have to feel the aloneness that you felt? * What is your definition of “home” and how has that transformed for you? * How have you found the strength to share your story in such a courageous way? * What do you say to those who are on the verge of sharing their story?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “I believe that we have so much depth within us, that we are afraid to stir it up.”
“These struggles aren’t meant to live with me. I’m not meant to carry them everywhere I go. I’m meant to get rid of them.
“Love should help you grow. It should empower you. It should add to your life, it shouldn’t complete your life. It should make your life better, not good.”
“Healing comes in stages. We tend to believe that those stages are fixed. But some days you take ten steps ahead, and some days you go back. That’s normal.”
“Sometimes, I look at myself in the mirror, and I tell myself, “I believe you.”
“I was hearing all of these voices from every single direction, and the only voice missing…was my voice. So, I had to ask myself the question, “What’s the purpose of pleasing all of those people…if my voice is buried?”
“You don’t search for a home in someone else. You build a home inside of you.”
“What if you kept your love, and your value, and your self-worth inside of you, so, at the end of the day, you came home to yourself?”
“As long as you have that story inside of you, you’re going to have that mountain on your heart. And when you’re carrying a weight, as light as it is, the longer you carry it, the heavier it becomes.”
“My writing was, always will be, forever, until the last letter that I write; to liberate myself.”
In the process of building our dream home, I’ve been faced with countless questions that I didn’t know the answers to, because, well- I had never been asked them before.
In this week’s Focus Friday, I share with you the game-changing question I ask to save myself time, energy, and to enlist the knowledge + expertise of the amazing souls the Great Big U has surrounded me with.
It’s easy to think we should have all of the answers… but in today’s episode, I dive in to the reasons why it’s perfectly okay when we don’t.
In this episode:
- Managing our time efficiently [ :50 ]
- The question I ask others to save myself massive amounts of time + energy [ 1:49 ]
- Entrusting others to support us on our journey [ 7:36 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “There is nothing that feels as good as knowing that someone else trusts you to support them on their journey and to breathe life in to their dreams.”

5 years ago this week, I stopped breathing on the operating room table as I was about to give birth to my daughter, Anni.
In the moments & spaces between new life and the unknown, understandings and knowings of truth washed over me...and I, myself, was reborn.
In today’s episode, I share the reflections + lessons I have learned over the last 5 years since those uncertain moments; and the biggest takeaways that my own brush with death taught me about this precious and magical life that I have been given the gift of living.
In this episode:

What could happen in our lives if we stopped waiting for happiness to come to us, and started finding it within ourselves?
I have a tendency, when I’m caught up in the swirl, to place my happiness in the future- when the event happens, when the book launches, when the program begins… What I’ve come to realize over time, though, is that happiness is not at some finish line- it’s in the moments, the steps and the breaths it takes to get there.
This week’s Focus Friday is all about creating our happiness in the NOW, because, truthfully friends, that is the only place it can ever possibly exist.
In this episode:
- What I discovered about my own expectations around happiness [ 1:30 ]
- Why living in the present moment brings us joy [ 6:35 ]
- The only time in our lives that we have any influence + control [ 12:55 ]
- What happens when we don’t honor our own needs [ 15:45 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “When we are operating from a place of needing external circumstances to be ‘just-so’, that inevitably opens the doorway for dissatisfaction and unhappiness.”
- “When we live in the future, that’s the definition of anxiety; when we live in the past, that’s the definition of depression; when we live in the present- that’s truly the definition of joy.”
- “My goal in my work is to only share in the way that I want to share; not as a reaction to someone else.”
- “What is going to make me happy right now? It’s not the finish line, it’s not the bank account balance, it’s not the things that we think- it’s freedom.”
- “Our world becomes so narrow when we are only doing things in a way that feels aligned with how someone else is doing it.”
- “I own the power to make myself happy.”

It's no secret that money is one of the #1 stressors in our society.
But what if it didn't have to be?

What if it was our natural birthright to feel and BE abundant during our time here?
In this episode, I dive in to some of the principles I teach in my book Master Your Money Mind and what I've learned on this life and entrepreneurial journey that has changed the way I manage and feel about money.
I am also sharing more about my latest program, Master Your Money Mind, a 6-week experience to help you totally transform your prosperity patterns and perspective.

This week’s Focus Friday is one that is near and dear to my heart. It’s one that I recorded so I could keep it close by, to remember the reasons why I choose faith in the moments when all I want to do is give up. My hope for you is that this episode will inspire you to do the same.
I share a story with you about the gift of keeping the faith, and how even in situation where it seemed like there was no reason to keep trying- I did. What happened next was nothing short of a miracle, one that I can’t wait to tell you about.
Warning: For all of my fellow cryers who are listening, make sure you grab your tissues- this one is definitely going to bring out the tears.
In this episode:
- I share a story (you get to hear it here first) about keeping the faith even when it seems like all is lost [ 1:03 ]
- How to trust the unfolding of life [ 10:00]
- The miracle moment [ 12:20 ]
- The biggest lesson I learned about love and faith [ 18:45 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “I’ve learned enough in my life, that when things are supposed to happen the way they are, when we really trust the lessons and the Divine nudges of our life- miracles happen.”
- “All is not lost, and sometimes we just have to hang on a little longer than we want to to get to that moment of the miracle... of the magic that is waiting for us on the other side of our faith.”

Ben and I sat down to celebrate our wedding anniversary and the one-year anniversary since he left his police career to come home and work in the business and our home.
It has been a powerful year of learning, reflection and discovery and one in which we've experienced quantum leaps in our own personal growth and connection.
IN THIS EPISODE, WE SHARED: * What we've learned about ourselves and one another in working together so closely in the business and home. * The growth we've witnessed in each other. * How we've been able to honor our bigger missions/values through these conscious choices. * What we've learned now that we're not plugged in to traditional health care benefits and the system of a corporate "boss." * How we structure our time together as a family so we can still get work done while homeschooling our daughter.
We hear all of the gurus, speakers and coaches say it- but do we ever ask ourselves what they really mean? What does it look like to be in true alignment...and how can we know when we’re out of it, so we can ease ourselves back in?
In this week’s Focus Friday, I share a story about my own alignment, and how it allowed me to zoom out and connect the dots between what was going on in my physical body and what was going on in my life.
If you’re feeling a bit “out of sorts”- today’s conversation raises the questions to show you the reasons why, and help you find the shifts and adjustments that lead you right back home to yourself.
In this episode:
- The adjustment that inspired today’s episode [ :45 ]
- How our physical bodies relate to our energy and our lives [ 4:10 ]
- The point when something in our lives is out of alignment [ 5:10 ]
- Covering up the problem instead of getting to the root of it [ 7:52 ]
- The reason I was covering up [ 10:50 ]
- This week’s journal exercise [ 11:57 ]
Soul Shifting Quotes:
- “I was living from the outside in, instead of the other way around.”
- “I’ve had to make quantum leaps, adjustments and shifts to stay in the space of work that feels aligned with my true calling and my deeper purpose.”

Courage. Merriam-Webster defines it as mental or moral strength to venture, persevere and withstand danger, fear or difficulty.
Notice that it doesn’t say to do so in the absence of danger, fear or difficulty?
Today’s guest, Kate Swoboda, is leading the charge on courage and making a massive impact on her clients (and the world) as an author, a coach and a teacher. Kate’s book, “The Courage Habit” will help you identify what no longer serves you, find out what your most courageous self truly wants, and help you align your life with your desires through learning and practicing the habit of courage.
Kate and I unpack what it means to be courageous, how to listen to our fear, and how to show up for ourselves- even when everything within us wants us to lock the door and shut the shades.
If you’re ready to start taking inspired and courageous action in your life, and to start making it a habit- this one’s for you.
IN THIS EPISODE: * iTunes Review of the week [ :43 ] * This week’s guest, Kate Swoboda [ 1:55 ] * Kate and I talk about the word “courage” [ 3:54 ] * We talk more about what it means to feel afraid and dive in anyway [ 6:25 ] * What lead Kate to “The Courage Habit” and how we can apply it [ 9:03 ] * How to recognize our fear based habits [ 13:50 ] * Kate discusses her own story and how she built her own courage habit [ 19:20 ] * What Kate says to “non-cryers” and authentically feeling our emotions [ 30:17 ] * How Kate is sharing the courage habit in her business [ 38:17 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “I think of courageous living as being a place where who you actually are on the inside, is how you truly are living on the outside.” * “I think there’s a quiet courage that often goes underlooked that’s required in our day to day lives, to really create lives where we feel fulfilled.” * “Fear is not logical- we have to deal with it in the body.” * “If you’re shutting down your sadness, you’re shutting down your joy.”

SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “When you become obsessed with what it is you’re doing- it literally doesn’t matter if you mess up.

We are all meant to change the world… some people just get to working on it sooner than others.
Today’s guest, Molly Hayward has felt called to speak up for and take a stand against social injustices since she was just a little girl- and since then she has never stopped.
Molly is the visionary founder of Cora, a lifestyle brand giving women a modern method for managing their periods. Cora gives body-conscious organic tampons and sustainable menstrual products to girls in underdeveloped countries for every package shipped, using her business and her voice as an opportunity to speak for women who don’t have the chance to speak for themselves.
Molly Hayward is changing (and in many instances creating) the dialogue about women and their periods- one that has been hushed beneath shame and cultural norms- on a global scale. I am honored to have her on the show today, so get ready- this conversation is going to change the way you see your body, your global sisters, and yourself.
IN THIS EPISODE: * Today’s guest, Molly Hayward [ 0:48 ] * iTunes Review of the week: [ 3:10 ] * How I found Cora and began using their amazing products [ 4:15 ] * Where Molly’s desire to help others came from [ 5:11 ] * How Molly turned a spark of inspiration into a thriving business [ 13:03 ] * The startling truth about what’s happening to less fortunate women in our world [ 18:05 ] * Honoring the seasons of our bodies and our lives [ 26:45 ] * Why it’s so important to give back in our businesses, and to work with others who want to do the same [ 29:15 ] * The story behind Blood + Milk [ 32:58 ] * How to create a dialogue around what we’re experiencing during our periods [ 46:40 ] * Why switching to organic products and respecting your body’s cues can help stop severe cramps [ 50:00 ] * The most surprising thing Molly has learned on this journey [ 55:33 ] * All you need to know about Cora [ 59:30 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “It felt so deeply ingrained inside of me that I had to do this; that I had to feel the fear and do it anyway.” * “The reason why it has taken this long for there to be a consciousness among women about this experience is because there has been this overriding stigma about it that has been ingrained in girls from an extremely young age.” * “There is that moment in the deepest part of winter when the seeds for the next spring are germinating underground. What our society does does not honor- is that moment.” * “You don’t devote your life to something for a paycheck; you do it because you know that it has meaning and it has greater purpose.” * “Having severe pain, having severe discomfort, having a negative perspective on this experience is not natural. This is learned- this is culturally ingrained.” * “Honoring my intuition and maintaining a positive perspective on everything is what moves this train forward.”

The Universe is always weaving in opportunities to teach us lessons about ourselves and how we can better balance the ebb and flow of our lives (and our businesses.) The question is, are we willing to pay attention?
In today’s Focus Friday, I take the Divine downloads I received after playing in my own championship soccer game (we won!) and zoom the focus way out to show you how what I learned about myself on the soccer field translates into how I participate in this game called life.
IN THIS EPISODE: * Takeaways from my championship soccer game [ :40 ] * Learning how to ask for what we need so we can be successful [ 2:00 ] * The invitation to practice your composure [ 3:55 ] * Striking the balance between offense and defense [ 7:52 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “Where could you start asking for people to play to your strengths?” * “The scenario really doesn’t matter, it’s about the energy that we bring to the situation that matters the most.” * “How are we playing on the defense, rather than getting on the offense, and sharing our creativity, our spirit, our light, our joy, our fun- with our tribe.” * “If the dream is in you, it is for you- and what I do best, is helping you find your way to it.”

When I was just starting out on my journey as an entrepreneur, today’s guest was one of the women who inspired me to launch my dreams forward and chase them with reckless abandon. Later on on the journey, the Universe thought it would be a good idea to make us Greatness Mastermind sisters and instant friends (thanks U!)- which is why I am beyond excited to introduce Jasmine Star on the show today.
Jasmine Star is a photographer, business strategist and social media genius. She dropped out of law school to pursue her dream of becoming a photographer; and has since built an internationally recognized and award winning business.
Jasmine’s story began the moment she realized she didn’t want to waste another moment settling for the life she thought she “should” have, and she’s been writing the rest of it ever since.
We talk everything from fear and determination, to some insanely helpful social media strategies… so be sure to grab a pen and paper for this one and get ready to be blown away and humbled by this incredible woman.

What will you do to make the most of what you have now?” * “It’s time to make a decision: are you going to live, or are you going to thrive?” * “Goals have been a really powerful way for me to continue striving without attachment.” * “So much of my life rests squarely in this idea that God has called me to pursue what I’m intended to pursue and put forth effort; but I am not tethered to the result of the effort.” * “I believe that I’ve been called to empower the underdogs to succeed- despite the odds stacked against them.” * “If you’re only a commercial on behalf of your business, people don’t know how to engage with you as a person- and that’s what social media is about.” * “I think that people like to have opinions- I have just decided to remove myself from them.”

What’s next may never come. What’s next may not be better than what you have right now.” * “Be there as an example, and be strong enough to change the people’s lives, who are already in yours” * “Money is a form of commitment.” * “Whatever you want to attract, you have to be willing to give.”

How many times in your life have you been pushing yourself towards a goal, and just kept saying to yourself, “If I only had more discipline…”?
In today’s Focus Friday, I want to sit down with you for some real talk on why that discipline our society celebrates could actually be holding you back. And why, deep down, it’s a form of punishment that’s shaming you towards your goals rather than inspiring you to them. I share exactly what you can trade it up for that will elevate your experience- allowing you to rise up to the next level of greatness that you’re destined for.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: * Don’t miss out on this life changing opportunity because of F-E-A-R [ :48 ] * Why your discipline isn’t working and what you can trade it up for [ 2:23 ] * What, exactly, is discipline? [ 2:48] * The alternative that could change your life [ 7:18 ] * Who wrote the rules, anyway? [ 10:28 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “Discipline is woven into our culture, and we use it against ourselves.” * “We are punishing ourselves with the thing that is allegedly supposed to be helping us rise up to that next level.” * “It feels like I am fighting something, rather celebrating what I’ve been called to.” * “Why are you punishing yourself into creating greatness?” * “Devotion is about love, it’s about loyalty, it’s about enthusiasm, it’s about worship, observance, prayer; it’s about the divine sacred gifts and invitations that we’ve been asked to step into in this lifetime.”

Have you ever had that feeling where you wanted to just spontaneously burst into song or dance even in moments when it wasn’t really appropriate to do so?
Have you ever found yourself craving more expression in your life, business and relationships? You’re not alone, soul sister. The feeling of pure and unfiltered joy is ALWAYS looking to express itself through your body.
But most of the time, we hold ourselves back from allowing it to move through us, for straight up fear of who might be watching.
Today’s episode is all about giving ourselves permission to dance, sing, leap, laugh and love in whatever way our hearts desire, despite who is around. To dance like everyone’s watching; because you never know who’s waiting for you to dance your dance- so they can have the courage to dance their own.
IN THIS EPISODE: * The stories behind today’s conversation and why it matters [ 0:53 ] * Questions to ask yourself about where you’re holding back [ 9:26 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “So much of what really connects with my audience, is the moments in which I decide to just dance.” * “We care so much about what other people are going to possibly think, that we don’t even allow ourselves to dance.” * “I want you to be the ballerina. In your life, your business, your relationships; and most of all in your relationship with yourself.”

It’s hard to know what any of us would do in the face of immense adversity and loss, but today’s guest is an example of how to move through it with dignity and grace- while using it to expand your heart and deepen your sense of self in the process.
Lauren Scruggs Kennedy is the author of 2 books, Still LoLo and Your Beautiful Heart, founder of “Stranded”- a dry shampoo company, curator of her lifestyle blog, founder of Lauren Scruggs Kennedy Foundation AND hosts a yearly retreat with Bethany Hamilton for young women who have lost limbs.
In 2011, Lauren suffered a tragic accident that resulted in the loss of a limb and her left eye, along with severe brain damage at the time of the incident. Not only did she come back stronger than ever, but Lauren also used her struggle as a way to grow, connect with others and give back to a community of people who often feel entirely alone. In today’s episode, Lauren shares with us exactly how she found the strength and courage to do that- and how each and every one of us can too.

It’s part of my story and it’s developing my character in a deeper way.” * “I have a mission to help people live fully and freely in their lives.”

What would happen if you stopped doubting your right to claim the things that called to you- and just started claiming them?
Today’s episode is all about eliminating uncertainty and the questioning of our paths, and, instead embracing + declaring our worth. When we can do that, it’s easy to see- we can do anything.
It’s time to trade that question mark in for a period- and I’m about to show you how.
IN THIS EPISODE: * A mantra and intention for today [ 0:49 ] * The vibration of a question vs. the vibration of a solution [ 1:43 ] * What lives beneath the question mark [ 3:56 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “This is what’s calling me and this is where I’m going. Beneath that, is a solid foundation.” * “I hope that you’re ready to trade in your question mark for a period. I hope that you’re ready to make a declaration and stop questioning what you already know is for you- and watch what happens next.” * “You could never possibly know who needs you to say “Yes” to yourself today. You could never possibly know who’s waiting on you to be courageous- so that they can be too.”

It’s not everyday that I cross paths with a woman on my journey who hasn’t allowed feelings of unworthiness to hold her back from rocking those dreams that have been calling to them in some way shape or form.
So it was such an awesome experience to dig in with this week’s guest, Cameka Smith, and really dive into what it is that has allowed her to never let fear or doubt stand in the way of her divine life’s purpose.
Cameka is the epitome of a BOSS; a business development mentor, founder of The Boss Network, one heck of an inspiring speaker and a lifetime entrepreneur. Her faith and her vision have driven her to change lives in a deeply connected and massive way, and believe me when I say, friends, she is just getting started.
Get ready to feel enlivened and recharged with this week’s episode and to learn how to step into and own the role of boss and CEO in your own life, whatever way that means for you.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: * How to navigate fear and doubt so you can pursue your dreams * How to discern if entrepreneurship is right for you * How Cameka used her life’s circumstances to build herself up and stay motivated * How to find mentors in your industry * The importance of quality over quantity
QUESTIONS I ASK: * How do you know that it is time for you to launch your own business? * What is the best way for someone to reach out to mentors and people in the industry you want to learn from? * What kind of support do you have in your life to create balance and get what you need? * What is a defining moment on your entrepreneurial journey where you felt you were exactly where you were meant to be? * What are your daily non negotiables?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “I have come to realize that there is not one person in the world that is more worthy than me, or I’m more worthy than them. We are all worthy of all the abundance and all of the greatness that God has in store for us.” * “Wherever you are, there’s always room to grow.” * “I wanted to believe in me more than anyone else believed in me.” * “Don’t get caught up in what other people are doing, because that’s the easiest way to set yourself up for failure.” * “The best way to step out there is to volunteer. You serve your way to success.” * “If you’re in the room, that means you belong there. * “What comes from the heart reaches the heart.” * “This is the year of the womanhood, it is our time...we don’t have to be anything but us.”

I know I’m not alone in saying that sometimes it feels like everyone else has got it all figured out, while your own life feels like one big perpetual ‘work in progress.’
Which is why I needed to have this conversation with you; because there are days (like today), when I’m right there with you. Some days (weeks.. months.. seasons)- don’t quite go along with the plan; and I’ve finally learned that this is actually part of the plan (whether I want it to be or not)..
Today’s Focus Friday is all about honoring you and whatever season of your life that you’re in. It’s about stepping into the sacred space that is this moment, and it’s about making room for what’s yet to fill it in the next.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: * Being in the season that you’re in in your life, business and relationships [ 0:41 ] * One of my biggest day to day challenges as a mamapreneur [ 3:07 ] * What happens when we get stuck “doing” instead of “being” [ 10:01 ] * How can you carve out time to have a daily conversation with yourself? [ 17:20 ] * How to use our visions to inspire us rather than defeat us [ 18:15 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “If I can’t be in alignment for myself, then you better believe I’m not going to be in alignment for the people I love the most.” * “I want you to stop racing and competing with people who are in a completely different race.” * “Be on the start line of your own race; be in your own lane. Remember why you chose what you chose for this life and practice being in it.” * “We have to stop using our dreams and our desires as a weapon against this present version of ourselves- and allow them to be something that inspires us rather than reminds us of how far we are from where we want to go.” * “Make room for the inspiration that’s going to lead you to the creation of what’s next.” * “I’m here for the expansion, I’m here for the love, I’m here for the growth; and the pace at which I do that is going to be different from the pace at which others do that- and there’s nothing wrong with that.”

In this week’s Focus Friday, I’m answering a listener’s question about what it feels like when others take our power away and worrying, correction: obsessing, about what other people think about us.
Been there, done that, right?
If you’re in the habit of placing everyone’s opinions + everyone’s needs over your own, or maybe you’ve caught yourself dimming your sparkle because you’re too busy worrying about how others will see you...click on that “play” button below right now, because I am speaking to YOU.
It’s never too late to begin prioritizing ourselves, and in this week’s episodes, I break down some of the ways I, myself, have found more space and more love in my life for the one person who has ever had the power to change it…me.

SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “No one can take your power away, especially as high functioning, compassionate adults. But we can give our power away, very readily and very easily, because of patterns that were laid as children when our power was, indeed, taken away from us.” * “Your big goals, your big vision, cannot come to life without prioritizing the delivery system-the channel. And you know who that channel is… it’s you.” * “My big vision cannot happen if I don’t pick myself for my own team.” * “You have to prioritize a daily conversation with yourself because this is how we build our belief.”

FEBRUARY 1, 2018
I learned so much last weekend in LA with Lewis and his crew at the Greatness Mastermind retreat, but the biggest realization came from reflecting on what it took to get me there.
It wasn’t money. It wasn’t time. It wasn’t having someone to look after my little one.
It was the courage to get on the plane, itself.
I know you know what I’m talking about.
The showing up is always the hardest part.
That first moment when we walk in to the room of rock stars. That physical CLAIMING of our dreams that takes place when we tell the people we love we’re diving in head first.
When we DO show up, when we get on the plane, buy the ticket....signup- for our dreams...our lives are dramatically changed.
When we say YES to the invitation to up level our experience here… magic always happens.
In this Focus Friday episode on the podcast, I talk about the 5 reasons why getting on the plane will make a massive impact in your life and in your business in some surprising ways you may not expect, and why taking the long walk down that jet bridge could be the most game-changing walk you ever take.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: * An invitation to get on the plane in your own life [:46] * What it means to “get on the plane” [ 3:16 ] * Why getting on the plane helps you dream bigger [ 8:25 ] * How we grow our tribe by surrounding ourselves with other [ 11:02 ] * How showing up refocuses you on what leads to results [ 13:40 ] * How consistency is the way [ 15:23 ] * How getting on the plane helps you become the person you need to be to get to the next level [ 18:51 ]
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “We are being called to give birth to something bigger and we are being called to trust and have faith in that process.” * “The only way that anything is ever going to happen is if we have the courage to actually dream it.” * “Being in the room with people like the folks at this Mastermind experience, we realize that we’re no longer separate. We’re more alike than we are different.” * “Get on the plane. Sign up. Say YES. Step up to your own greatness.. You couldn’t possibly know what waits for you on the other side of your fear.”

Did you look at the title of this podcast and think, “but what if I’ll never succeed”
Or…“I don’t even know what success means.”
Good news! This one’s for you.
Success is not a predetermined destination or a place that only the lucky ones arrive at. Success is whatever you decide it is.
What a relief that we get to choose our own success trajectory.
Today’s episode is about reverse engineering our success and defining for ourselves what it is in life that would bring us the most joy; and it’s also about living with that joy… in this very moment.
Grab a pen and some paper for this one, I’m about to ask you questions that dig right in to the heart of your desire and help you understand what success looks like for you, and how you just might find it.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: * How to define success for yourself * The questions to ask yourself to help you move into total alignment * What it means to bring the joy with you
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “We can create a life and a journey to align with what our definition of success is.” * “We don’t get what we want because we’re desperate. We get what we desire because we’re inspired.” * “We cannot operate from a place of ultimate conditions. We need to operate from a place of unconditional success.” * “Are you preparing with, or for, your joy?”
Do you ever find yourself scrolling through your Facebook feed or checking out someone’s Insta story, only to close the app on your phone and somehow feel a little...less than?
Whether consciously or not, chances are you’ve got a little bit of comparisonitis going on, and could find yourself in the “compare and despair” mode. Sound familiar?
Today’s episode is all about that feeling we get when we believe that who we are, as we are, isn’t enough. It’s about the beliefs we hold true that trigger us to think that we don’t have within us what it takes to be epic; that who we are somehow isn’t enough.
Grab a notebook and pen, because I ask some questions in this episode that are gonna get you digging deep in reflection to begin unraveling those lies you’ve been telling yourself.
Guess what, fam- I’m calling BS on all those little lies today...and I’m showing you how you can too.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: * What is “comparisonitis” and how does it hold us back * The question I asked myself that changed how I will look at myself forever * Questions for you to journal and reflect on to help you move into alignment and total self acceptance
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “When we spend a lot of time comparing ourselves to other people, it stops us from moving forward on our own missions.” * “So many of us live our lives trying to fix ourselves, rather than focus on, simply, improving.” * “We are coming to the work presupposing that there’s something inherently wrong with us, rather than just stepping into the truth that we are good enough as we are.” * “I am not here to fix me, I am here to accept me.” * “You can witness someone that you admire and see them as a reflection of what is already great within you.”
Today’s episode hosts one of those conversations that goes straight for the heart and reminds us of the truth: that we don’t need to prove anything to anyone to be worthy.
In the words of Dr. Maya Angelou, our crowns have already been bought and paid for, we just need to wear them.
And... in the words of my dear friend and today’s rockstar guest…we are all queens.
From the moment I met Karin Haysbert at Brendon Burchard’s Expert’s Academy, I was drawn in by her spirit and captivating energy. We became instant friends and spent the rest of the weekend sitting together in sessions ( when you meet a soul sister, you just know).
I beyond blessed to have her on the podcast today and to share her wisdom with my tribe.. Karin is the author of Queen Arise: 40 Days to Liberating the Queen Within You, an incredible speaker and, as she so beautifully states, a Queen for Christ.
For the parts of you that feel unworthy, the parts of you that feel like you’re a mess… and most importantly, the part of you that’s ready to accept and step into the Queen that you’ve always been, I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: * How to see our trials as beautiful and necessary for growth * What it means to be a Queen * How having more compassion for yourself helps you have more compassion for your partner * What practices Karin uses to help retrain her thoughts * How Karin views money mindset and body image
THINGS I ASK: * How did you begin sharing your message the way you do now? * What do you say to women who are holding themselves back? * When you were suffering, what made you surrender and move forward? * What do you say to someone who wants to hold onto their “victim” status * How do you define the word “Queen”? * How have you approached your challenges and fears around money mindset?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “We’re holding ourselves in bondage. We’re holding ourselves in these patterns that God has forgotten about, but we’re still remembering.” * “People could not hear my voice because I would not open my mouth.” * “The truth is, if you’re still here, you still have purpose. You still have destiny. There’s still a lot of great things for God to use you in and do through you.” * “If I continue to hold onto the past, I am enslaving myself. You are the jailer and you are the one who can open the lock and let yourself out.” * “Nothing that happens to me diminishes my worth and value.” * “Love is giving someone what they need, even if you don’t.” * “Being a queen means that you know who you are. You know what you’re sent to do. And you’re willing and able to say ‘Yes’ to that assignment.” * “I just need to believe. The ‘how’ is up to God, and God will reveal it step by step.”

Through the sifting and shifting that has occurred in my world over the past 365 days, I’ve had the pleasure of finding myself drawn closer and closer to my own soul’s purpose. It has been a joy watching my life and business transform before my eyes.
In this first episode of 2018, I invite you to roll your sleeves up to dig in and unearth your own calling.
Inside each and every one of us is a truth that was designed and assigned for us alone. It is our job to learn to hear the call and answer it, and today I want to help you figure out how.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How to shift from strategic planning to living in daily alignment * How to know when it’s time to ask for help * How to align your career with your calling and to notice the whispers nudging you on * About the soul shifting passage I read that helped me understand why I am exactly where I need to be
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: * “The work that we’ve been called to is the work that aligned with our souls.” * “When I left my corporate career I wasn’t running away from anything;I was moving towards my truth.” * “Each and every one of us has incredible gifts that are locked inside of us that need to be shared.” * “We get so far ahead of ourselves that we forget to be where we are.” * “This is your divine journey that you have been lead on. Believe it and you will see it.” * “The only way that we can discover what we are being carried towards, is through creating enough space in our lives to listen.”
When I think about welcoming in a New Year, it makes me all kinds of giddy.
I am especially excited for the "8" because it represents infinity, harmony and balancing the material and unnatural world. This is, basically, code for spirituality taking center stage in the more conscious realm of our lives.
2018 is a year for awakening and greater enlightenment, as well as, abundance and expansion when coming from a place of balance.
For me, 2017 was about laying the groundwork, testing new waters-so to speak.
It was all about growth and getting on the track of my personal spiritual journey.
SOME OF THE HUGE MILESTONES AND CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO THE SUCCESS OF 2017 WERE: * New and deepened relationships with dear friends and soul brothers and sisters. * A deeper connection to my own soul purpose paired with the language to support that connection. * A greater impact and ability to serve others. * Consciously cutting cords and clearing blocks that kept me small and scared of my own potential. * Greater clarity and connection in my marriage. More time together to work through the bumps and get clear on our collective and individual dreams and needs. * A more present relationship with our daughter. * Improved relationships and connections with my beloved parents and family. * Growth in our teams...network marketing and in the coaching business. * Tripled our annual income * Gave over $10,000 to charity. * Was selected as one of the Top 20 Young Professionals on the Seacoast here in New Hampshire. * Sold out Soul Fueled Summit - first one! * Grew the podcast to 50k downloads per month. * Had my first six-figure launch and $80K month.
Traveled and trained with top industry pros.

- Transitioned from a solely 1:1 coaching model to group coaching and very limited 1:1 coaching offerings.
- Launched + hosted MM retreat and am now accepting applications for our Feb. 2018 retreat!
THE MOST EXCITING PART OF 2018 FOR ME IS THAT IT FEELS LIKE A SPRINGBOARD INTO A WHOLE NEW REALM OF OPPORTUNITY. 2017 was solid and 2018 now gets to be an amplification of what we did and learned there.
My word for 2017 was Trust.
And trust I did, leaned in to discomfort and relaxed my grip.
2018 is all about EMBODIMENT and RADIATING all that I've learned and what I feel deep down inside.
I feel ready to lean in to my own Divine Feminine wisdom and sensibility.
2018 feels like Trust 2.0:
- Honoring my body and her needs.
- Trusting myself as a parent, wife and businesswoman.
- Letting intuition and information lead.
- Welcoming in more play, creativity, allowing others to help hold structure in place so I can be at my best.
- Remembering the #1 reason I launched this business...
TO BE MORE PRESENT FOR MY LIFE AND THE PEOPLE IN IT.
What's your word for 2018?
What are some of your favorite rituals?

This week I was inspired by one very simple thought.
I was taking a break from the madness that can sometimes be the reality entrepreneurship and spent a few moments looking at my life. I saw the home and the spaciousness I have created in my world, the beautiful family I get to do each day with, the incredible friendships and students I get to connect with each day and the thriving business I have given life to… and as I looked, I had this epic realization...
No part of this has been a solo endeavor.
Nope. In order to craft this epic life I am leading over here, I needed my sisters, my husband, my daughter, my family, my mentors and you.)
Each and every one of my listeners, clients and students has helped me to rise up and keep marching onwards to meet the life that has always been waiting for me. You help me remember to remember WHY I do this sacred work in the world and you push me to keep growing even on the days I feel tired and start questioning myself.
Today, I want to dig in deep and discuss what I believe it TRULY means to say, “it takes a village.” And I invite you to spend a few minutes with me.ake off your “solopreneur” hat, or uncross your “I’ve got this” arms and hear me out as to why I believe we are stronger together than we could ever be apart.
You might be able to do it all on your own, sister, but at the end of this Focus Friday I will have one question left to ask you: do you really want to?
In today’s episode, I offer you a sneak peek at the blueprint I used to triple my income over the past 12 months and level up in a massive way. And, bonus... not only do I invite you to dream bigger...today, but I am going to show you how.
2017 was the year of expansion...and it was my most prosperous year to date. Not just in the realm of finances; but also in terms of the abundance that I welcomed into my life through relationships, experiences and personal growth.
I want to be clear, though, none of this happened on a whim. The expansiveness of this year was a deliberate choice I committed myself to making on a daily basis. It was a choice to upgrade my mindset and consciously participate in my life on a level that the former version of me didn’t even know was possible.
It hasn’t been all sunshine and rainbows, but I can tell you it has been completely worth it and will continue to be as I’ve made a pact with myself to be here for all of the peaks and valleys ahead. And guess what, my dear sweet friend?
You get to make this same pact.
Let’s not wait another moment, game changers and light seekers.
Let’s make 2018, your most epic year yet. Your future self is ready and waiting!
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How to upgrade your main operating system: your mindset * How to identify what is keeping you from reaching your fullest potential * Why our money blocks are holding us back * Why the world needs YOU to level up and dream bigger
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “What you have achieved in 2017 is a result of the mindset that you’ve had.”
“I am now a person that is willing to bet on herself...all of the time.”
“The greatest investment you could possibly make on this planet is in you. Your potential is exponential.”
“I want to help you create a life and a business that changes the world, and most especially, it changes your own.”
“It is exponential the impact we can make on the lives of others.”
It’s that time of the year again. You know, the time of the year when you have a to-do list that somehow only seems to keep getting longer: The magical and, often, overwhelming holiday season. You have gifts to buy, cards to send, newsletters to write, parties to attend content to create, launches to plan and a million other things to get done…I feel like crawling back into bed just thinking about it all.
And if you’re anything like me, sisters, this tends to send us into overwhelm city.
Suddenly, you are looking for the panic button and are so consumed with everything that needs to get done in the future, that you just ignore and fall out of alignment with what’s best for you and your life right in this very moment.
We forget the stuff that works because we’re so busy getting to work.
This Focus Friday is all about helping you find ways to break that pattern of overwhelm and step back into the flow of your beautiful and purpose-driven life.
I invite you to slowly back away from the panic button. Put Ben and Jerry back in the freezer and take 15 minutes to gift yourself a way out of the chaos that is overwhelm. I promise you, friends, we can mindfully and consciously create spaciousness for all of our important work, without sacrificing our peace of mind in the process.
This episode is all about how.
Ben and I sat down today to catch you up on all the momentous movement that has occurred in our lives since we retired him from the police force and brought him home to the Team 5 months ago.
Life is all about evolution, and ours is no exception. We get into some real talk about what we’ve been up to, how our roles are changing and our hopes for our family in the coming months and years, as we become more and more attuned to how we feel most deeply called to show up in our world.
Plus, Ben also talks about his newest entrepreneurial venture and we get to answer some hard hitting questions from our listeners!
We are excited to share this one with you, friends…There is nothing quite like doing your life’s work with the one you choose to do life with.
What do CrossFit and my business have in common? In both of them, I have to show up, do the work, meet them where I am at, and not worry about what the girl next to me is doing.
So often in our lives, we allow our fear of needing to do something perfectly, stop us from doing it at all. But we do ourselves a huge disservice when we do this, and in this Focus Friday, I am explaining to you exactly what that disservice is.
This episode is all about learning to step forward, however unprepared we may feel, towards our greatest visions and dreams. It is about doing it imperfectly instead of never doing it at all.
Not sure how to do that? Have a listen friends, I’ve got all the experience on this one, and now I’m sharing it with you.
Bottomline: Progress often does not equal pretty.
Friends and fellow mamapreneurs, if you’ve ever wanted to see a living and breathing example of stunning dignity and grace in the most difficult of circumstances, you’ve found it in today’s guest.
Heather Crabtree is a mama, a wife, a friend, a daughter, and yes- a rockstar entrepreneur. But 8 months ago she found out the devastating news that her 9 year old daughter had Stage 4 cancer, and ever since that moment, she has been on a journey to remain grateful, hopeful, and immensely clear about what it is that matters most of all in her life.
(Hint: It isn’t the 6 figure months and a growing business.)
Her message isn’t just for people in time of crisis, though, it is for YOU and me, sisters, right in this very moment. It is a call and an invitation to get really clear and intentional with how you spend your precious time, and the things and people that you give your energy to.
It’s not every day we get to see such courage and an example of grace-filled dignity, and I am beyond honored to share this beautiful conversation with you.
Sit down in your favorite space, grab some tissues + tea, get comfy and open your hearts for this one. Today, my sweet friend Heather is going to remind us about what really matters.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * Why it’s okay to change your mind and change your course * How to know if you’re making decisions in your life in business based off of fear * Why it’s important to put family first * How to move through the fear about “what’s next” when it comes to our families and children * How we can be of greater service to families who have sick children
IN THIS EPISODE I ASK: * What are some of the challenges and greatest takeaways you’ve learned in the process of the evolution of your career? * What was the moment that made you finally understand that you have to do what’s right for you? * What are the top 2-3 lessons that you’ve learned by going through this experience with your family? * What do you want people to know about families that are going through this, and how can we be of greater service? * What is the greatest lesson that your little girl has taught you?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “I don’t need to prove myself to anyone. I’m here, and my family comes first.”
“With any big tragic thing that happens, you go through these stages. So this past year has been about recognizing those and just really digging into what matters.”
“We make these moments count, because we don’t know what’s next.”
“I don’t have a problem with money. What I have a problem with is thinking that that’s what’s going to bring you happiness.”
“Your business should fit into your life, and we try so hard as entrepreneurs to fit our life into our business.”
“I think the more you can share and open up, the more that you inspire people and allow them to feel like they’re not alone. “
“Every moment counts. Give the most you can to the people that you love.”
WE ALL KNOW HOW IMPORTANT GRATITUDE IS, BUT DO WE EVER THINK ABOUT WHAT PURPOSE IT TRULY SERVES IN OUR LIVES? In the United States we just celebrated Thanksgiving, the time of year where people spend a little extra time and attention on what they’re grateful for.
This Focus Friday, however, I am calling you to welcome that practice into your lives each and every single day. We’re not just talking about a morning practice or nightly devotional, but as a way of being.
This one is all about tuning ourselves to the things we truly want, by expressing overflowing gratitude for the gifts we already have.
THIS IS A PRACTICE THAT CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING FOR US. So be sure once the audio ends, to take a moment and reflect on all the gifts you’ve been given, and then feel free to share them in a comment below. I’d love to join in your joy with you.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING FRIENDS, I AM OH-SO GRATEFUL FOR EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU.
Each and every one of us has gifts that we have been given and seeds that are meant to be sewn.
What matters isn’t that we have them; what matters is that we cultivate the courage to plant them...and find the willingness to get our hands dirty in the process.
If you’re looking for some guidance on how to do just that, my friends, look no further; Lara Casey has one heck of a green thumb.
Lara is the inspirational powerhouse behind PowerSheets: the “grace filled goal setting planner”, author of the epic book Make it Happen: Surrender your Fear. Take the Leap. Live on Purpose, founder of Southern Weddings Magazine, mother of 3, wife of 1 and devoted mother and wife.
What is most magnetizing about this woman, however, is not on her list of accomplishments; it is her willingness to share her journey with us in full transparency. We are not drawn to her success in all of it’s sparkly-ness just because; we are drawn to it because of the message that’s woven into it. And, as you’ll find out in this episode- the path to our message almost always begins... with our mess.
This conversation has been a long time in the making, and I couldn’t be more excited to share Lara’s genius with each and every one of you.
So get ready to plant some seeds and water the soil, sisters- this one is all about tending to the business of our souls.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How pride can become our greatest hinderance * How to keep faith even when your journey doesn’t seem to make much sense * Why purposeful goals are important * How Powersheets came to life * What mindful parenting actually looks like in practice * Lara’s secret to a strong and faithful marriage
IN THIS EPISODE I ASK: * How have you found your voice and the courage to share it? * What has lead you to this part of your story? * What is your favorite flower and why? * What is the story behind how Powersheets began? * What is your “Mama Mission”? * What is the constant theme that you’re being tasked to do your deepest work around? * If you could go back to any former version of yourself, what would you say to her?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “I was chasing all the wrong things, and I was chasing them because I thought that they were attached to my worth.”
“Anything can change with careful nurturing, tending and getting our hands in the dirt...because good things grow in the dirt, not despite it.”
“No matter how small you perceive your pool of influence is; it matters.”
“It really is those points of pain we experience, that might just be the very things that bring us the deepest connections with other people.”
“Even when you can’t see it or feel it, there is life below the surface.”
“You can’t do it all and do it well.”
“The pursuit of my life is to hopefully serve people.”
You know those moments we’ve been preparing for our whole lives?
The ones that we do the work for, so that when they show up we are able to handle them with dignity and grace? The ones that matter?
Yes- those ones.
On this Focus Friday, I share with you a conversation I had to have with my sweet daughter this week, that was precisely one of those moments.
I invite you to sit down and listen to this one, with an open heart (and maybe a tissue or two), as I welcome you into the sacred interaction that was shared not only between a mother and her daughter, but also between a 36-year-old woman, and her former self.
This one is for all of us, friends- to help us remember that the most important thing that we may have forgotten along the way.
PS - You. Are. Magic.
What does celebration mean to you? Is it the birthday parties, the weddings, the engagement dinners or the anniversaries? Is it the cakes, and the centerpieces and all of the sparkly gifts?
But, what if the celebration, itself, IS the gift?
What if we reframed celebration as a way to give (and to receive) love… and a vital part of the foundation that you could build an entire empire off of?
Are you wondering what in the world I am talking about?
You’re going to want to stick around for this one.
In 2012 Kristen Ley didn’t just “start a business”. What she did was find a way to make a living celebrating others by simply trusting her passion and following some truly Divine guidance.
Starting with an $800 letterpress and a yearning for something more, Kristen gave birth to her company Thimblepress; a lifestyle brand contributing magnificently designed and crafted products to the world. Products that not only tell a story; products that help people tell and celebrate THEIR story.
Thimblepress has evolved from a garage housing an old letterpress that was collecting dust; to a team of 15 souls, retail in over 1500 stores, and 2 brick and mortar shops. Kristen Ley has used her passion, her faith, and her vision to celebrate not only the BIG moments in life, but more importantly, the seemingly tiny and often missed moments that are oh-so worth honoring.
If you’re wondering how to build a business that gives more than just a product... if you’re wondering how to learn how to use your stumbles as stepping stones... and if you’re wondering how to stay true to yourself and your beliefs, while simultaneously creating an epic brand that is an extension of who you are; look no further.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * What is celebration and how important is it to make it a part of our lives * How you can use your “love languages” to do your sacred work * What she is REALLY selling to people (Hint: It’s not just confetti) * Why you don’t need to have a big vision right away to start a business * How to turn your weaknesses into your greatest assets * How trusting God has played a pivotal role in creating her business, and building a team of people she loves and honors * Where Kristen gets her inspiration from and why she will never step away from designing and creating
IN THIS EPISODE I ASK: * Why does celebration play such a central role in your life and in the sacred work you do? * Where did that level of intentionality come from for you? * Did you imagine Thimblepress being what it is now? How did you make a beginning? * What has continued to pull you forward? * What has been most challenging about the growth and what has been the most surprising? * How do you go from being the person who does it all by herself to bringing in team members in a way that feels really good? * Are you still doing every single design that comes through? * What are some of your non-negotiables? * Where do you get your inspiration for your designs?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “Celebration does not just mean a birthday party, or a wedding…there are so many different ways we can honor each other and celebrate each other, little and big. And I want to be a part of that in people’s lives.”
“I was surrounded by so much love as a child. I see what encouragement can do for you not only as a child but as an adult, and you can encourage through celebration.”
“Weaknesses manifest into the best qualities that make you up.”
“When you start a business you either go into knowing you’re starting a business. Or you have a passion for something…and that passion becomes a business.”
“I wouldn’t have been able to continue this business, if I didn’t have faith. Because I believe worry and fear stop so many people from doing what they were meant to do. “
“It’s so hard, when we’re in a season of little fruit, to see that that season isn’t going to be forever. And to also accept that time we have to breath…”
“I want people to feel honored and celebrated that work here, because…at the end of the day, I see these people more than I do my family.”
“I need people that are different than me- that bring different thoughts and different opinions to the table. I need people that will challenge me to grow this brand in a bigger way.”
“Sometimes it’s the prayers that we don’t want to pray…that God says, “Alright, I was just waiting on you.”
“The happiness and the environment that I want to cultivate with my team is a non-negotiable.”
“Take time to cultivate the roots of what you’re doing and take time in your decisions, even through quick growth. But don’t take too much time to feel like you have to have things perfect…that you don’t leap.”
Have you ever watched someone on stage, playing out on the field or in the middle of a creating a work of art? They just have this poetic and captivating way about them...lost in concentration, seemingly unaware of anyone else’s opinion of them. Watching them connect so deeply and beautifully to their art and in complete service to their heart’s expression is one of my favorite things to do.
I am eternally fascinated with musicians, athletes and performers who allow themselves to completely surrender to their craft.
This weekend, I had the honor of watching my friend Chris Lester performing his craft twice over the course of 2 nights. In this episode, I will share the story with you of what it felt like to witness him in two very different settings and what I learned in watching him.
This Focus Friday is your permission to surrender to your own genius, soul sisters...so listen on up, the world is waiting.
Every now and again, if you are lucky enough, you get to connect with people whose words are SO powerful- they just knock the wind right out of you.
Jeanine Staples, my friends, is one of those people.
She stunned the world (and me) with her TED Talk, “How To Die Peacefully”, when she challenged the notion that humans are born, they live and then they die. No- Jeanine believes we are born and then we die a thousand tiny deaths. She claims, we can only learn to live, when we learn to die those deaths peacefully.
Oh, I KNOW; and this is just what I learned before our conversation.
Dr. Jeanine Staples is the Associate Professor of Literacy and Language, African American Studies, and Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Penn State University. She is the founder of “The Supreme Love Project” , a movement which seeks to embolden marginalized people to heal their souls and liberate themselves. Not to mention, she is a genius, a soul excavator, a humanist and an all around “Be Your OWN Hero”, kind of Wonder Woman.
I am beyond thrilled and honored to share this conversation with you. I just know that these words will touch you in a way that could literally shift the way you live your life, today- if you let them.
So, grab a notebook for this one, sit down, and get ready to let it all sink in to your soma (how Jeanine refers to our bodies). This one’s a game changer.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How our to heal our soul terrors and begin our own Personal Liberation Project * Why seeking external affirmation can only lead to suffering * What it means to “Go Deeper” * The truth about our conditioned fear of experiencing pain * How to teach our children to understand their body and their pain * How your unconscious beliefs about money hold you back from being free * What it means to own your womanhood * What your “lover identity” is * How to begin to stand up for social injustices and become a voice for for the voiceless
THINGS I ASK: * How did you heal your emotional break and move forward? * What are the side effects of a life commitment to suffering and avoidance of pain? * Why are we so afraid of experiencing pain? * How do we meet our children right where they are to support them on their journey? * How does this work help bring in more abundance and wealth? * How do we start exploring and rebuilding our womanhood? * How do we, as white privileged woman who have businesses, who want to say something, who want to stand up, begin? What do we do?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “My generation of terror was so complete and so huge, I didn’t have that ability to bide my time and create a status quo. I had to break.”
“I was at what I thought was my bottom. And the voice of God, the Holy Spirit said… “Go deeper.”
“There’s so many of us who run from pain. It’s suffering that we need to cease, not pain. Suffering is this long term uninterrupted source of despair without hope. That’s what we need to move away from. But pain, pain is actually what we need to generate bigger emotional muscle. To grow the capacity to go deeper.”
“Let your child get attuned to their body. Because their bodies are instruments for their emotionality.”
“Our salvation and our liberation project would not exist, unless there was something we were in bondage to. And that bondage is your pain. Best to become really enamored with it.”
“You can only be satiated from the inside out.”
“Do I feel real? Or do I feel like I am wearing labels and descriptions that had been given to me.”
“I had to really do the work of saying, I am not the woman I want to be. I am not the woman I say I am. And I want to be congruent. I want to BE that person, and not perform that person.
“Your interior life is the precedent to any other exterior attachment or endeavor that you want to take part of.”
Inspired. To be in spirit.
This is the place with which I choose to operate from at all times and the driving intention behind the reason why I threw out my vision board.
Not that there is anything wrong with vision boards (because there isn’t), but because I came to find that I couldn’t be in an inspired state of freely becoming, if my gaze was always fixed upon immoveable and specific things I wanted to become.
But, let’s be real here… you know me.
You know how much I believe in the massive power of manifestation and aligning ourselves, and envisioning all the sparkly feels of what we are called to breathe life into…
So you know I came up with a way to call out to my dreams and my visions, while also allowing for a change in trajectory and a change of heart.
Want to know how and why I did all of this? Then listen up, girlfriend, I can’t wait to share this one with you.
If there is one man that understands how to achieve Greatness, it is this one.
But- not only does Lewis Howes know how to achieve it for himself, he has made it his mission… his life’s purpose... to help as many people as he possibly can, do the same.
When I met Lewis in person for the first time at his Summit of Greatness Mastermind event, I felt called to share with him how grateful I was and how deeply connected our stories were on a soul level. Our pasts and our journeys share this incredible synchronicity, and even now- here is a man helping me to give life to my dreams, while I help game-changing women and mamapreneurs (like you) breathe life into theirs.
So, you know, what an honor it is to bring him here for you and to dig in deep on this conversation. Today we are breaking the code and unlocking the secrets that will help you take off that mask that you’ve been wearing to live in alignment with your truth, so you can manifest your dreams into reality.
Lewis has built a game changing empire around one simple word: Greatness. He has forged a path and given us the map to stepping into what we are afraid of and creating the life we know we were meant for. Whether it is through his podcast, in either one of his books,The School of Greatness and his newly released The Mask of Masculinity or in one of his live events; he is constantly urging us to break through our old barriers and set our eyes on the sky.
Friends- I am inviting you to slip out of your masks for the next hour, open your hearts, and get ready to download some powerful insights from a man and friend who has devoted his life to creating maximum impact. This one will not only leave you feeling inspired and motivated; it will leave you feeling capable and ready to do the same.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How your work in the world can align with the healing journey you’re on * How we can use pain to break through our physical and mental barriers * How our masks keep us from being seen, and how vulnerability can become the key to healing * How women can use his book, “The Mask of Masculinity” to help them understand the men in their lives * How to build the superpower of self trust * How to recreate a “stadium environment” in your own business * How gratitude, growth and giving have allowed him to live out his dreams * Why YOU should be your favorite brand
THINGS I ASK: * What are you most grateful for? * What have been some of the most painful emotions that come up frequently for you? * When did you start to consciously connect with the concept of the mask of masculinity? * When did you start dreaming? * What has been the podcast experience been like for you? * What is your mission of every conversation on your podcast? * What do you think the people listening to RIGHT NOW need to hear from you? * What have been your favorite podcast episodes? * What are you working on, emotionally, right now? * What is the core message you make sure you get to live out? * How would you say your choices in your youth served you today as an entrepreneur? * What do you advise for women who are powerhouses, but lack confidence? * What do you want more of in life? * What would you say to younger Lewis about the big vision, so he can keep moving forward? * Who are your favorite brands?
SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “I go to a place in my mind when the pain comes to see how much farther I can push it. What else can I do to strengthen and expand. I know when I feel pain, if I stop right then, I’m not going to break through.”
“I think a lot of us are weak minded and we’re afraid to feel uncomfortable. So I try to be as uncomfortable as possible whenever I can.”
“I think the biggest disservice to yourself and the world. is to try to put on a mask and fit in.”
“So many men are holding onto these masks, they’re unwilling to reveal themselves. And when we start to share about the things we’re most afraid of- that’s when we can begin to heal.”
“ I want to create something for myself that is a reminder everyday to improve and be grateful.”
“I want to make sure I honor the feelings that I have. But also honor someone else’s feelings and the commitments that I make. “
“I want to be a catalyst to show people that their dreams are possible. And that their dreams matter because they matter. “
“My goal is to make the maximum impact on the people I can, today. Because this is all I have- this moment.”
“I believed in myself every day more and more when I showed up and gave my all on what I said I was going to do.”
“It’s hard to go after a big dream when you don’t believe in yourself.”
“Focus on gratitude. Focus on growth. Focus on giving.”
Last week, I shared something very sacred to Ben and I, on a very public platform. I told the story of our recent miscarriage on my Instagram profile.
In the wake of losing the child we had just conceived, I opted to lean in by opening up, instead of just blocking everything out.
I opened up my most private thoughts to the world, and what I received was a waterfall of love and support from rockstars far and wide. What I received was the affirmation from those of you who have experienced your own sadness and sense of loss that by sharing our truth, we allow others to meet us right where we are. It was an amazing reminder that our souls are stronger together than they may ever be alone.
What I also received was the invitation to be completely and utterly present in the experience of my “now.” And in the unfurling of what was happening, my sweet husband and I were able to find acceptance in what life was handing us in that moment. Instead of running from our pain or pretending that it didn’t exist, we did quite the opposite: we welcomed it with open arms.
And in that welcoming, we became willing to let life guide us to what’s next, wherein we became willing to say, “Maybe it’s okay to change the plan.”
I recorded this episode for you in hopes that it could perhaps inspire you to do the same for yourself.
This one goes deep for me friends, and I hope that in it, you too, can find your invitation to get entirely present in your moment, your pain and your story, so you can more readily become open to moving through it.
Thank you for honoring me through this process, now let me help you honor yours.
When I saw Najwa Zebian speak on stage at the Summit of Greatness last spring, I was just completely entranced. As you’ll hear in this episode, I often say that I live my life on the verge of tears, and here was a woman who was bold enough to step into her vulnerability and do the same. (In front of a LOT of people.) I felt such a deep connection to her story, to the parts of her that had struggled and triumphed, to the way she poured herself out into her words, that I just KNEW I needed to have this beautiful and courageous warrior on the show!
Najwa is an author, a poet and a motivational powerhouse who has used the act of sharing her truths to liberate herself, and to help millions of others do so as well in the process. Her books “Mind Platter” and “The Nectar of Pain” will rock you to your core. Through her own suffering, Najwa learned how to unload the burden of her shame by finding her voice and using it to speak up and speak out. She is unapologetically real, and encourages you and I to join her in that movement... and wouldn’t you know, that is music to my ears!
This conversationbrought us both to tears once or twice, and I have no doubt it will do the same for you. Make sure you grab some tissues for this one (I guarantee you’re going to need a few) and get ready to be moved by this small but fierce woman!

SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “I believe that we have so much depth within us, that we are afraid to stir it up.”
“These struggles aren’t meant to live with me. I’m not meant to carry them everywhere I go. I’m meant to get rid of them.
“Love should help you grow. It should empower you. It should add to your life, it shouldn’t complete your life. It should make your life better, not good.”
“Healing comes in stages. We tend to believe that those stages are fixed. But some days you take ten steps ahead, and some days you go back. That’s normal.”
“Sometimes, I look at myself in the mirror, and I tell myself, “I believe you.”
“I was hearing all of these voices from every single direction, and the only voice missing…was my voice. So, I had to ask myself the question, “What’s the purpose of pleasing all of those people…if my voice is buried?”
“You don’t search for a home in someone else. You build a home inside of you.”
“What if you kept your love, and your value, and your self-worth inside of you, so, at the end of the day, you came home to yourself?”
“As long as you have that story inside of you, you’re going to have that mountain on your heart. And when you’re carrying a weight, as light as it is, the longer you carry it, the heavier it becomes.”
“My writing was, always will be, forever, until the last letter that I write; to liberate myself.”

Back to school is such a swirly time period with new schedules and getting ourselves sorted, but it's also an amazing opportunity to buckle down on new endeavors and really hold ourselves accountable to our big goals as we shift in to the fourth quarter.

I cannot wait to dive in to this with you and I shared this particular episode with you from the water, actually IN my kayak on the lake and reflected on this huge moment in time my family is experiencing in retiring my husband from his 11-year police career this week!
Lots of exciting things are happening in the business and here on the home front and I give you a glimpse in this quick episode and highlight one of my most favorite business activities that helps me celebrate abundance. This one will definitely surprise you!

“If you cannot sit with yourself and look at the truth of where you are now, you won’t be able to get where you want to go.”

“Entrepreneurship is about being it for the long game, so don’t force yourself to do something that will burn you out.”
“How can I provide value, but also entice someone to join? It’s all about trying to get people to sign up in a way that’s helpful.”

“We’re not separate and all of our fear comes from that. Our coming home is the realization that we aren’t separate at all.”

I felt a download coming this morning in response to some questions being asked over in The Why Warrior Tribe (my free FB group, join us!) so I grabbed the mic and threw down a quick podcast.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How to manifest your deepest desires * How to shift from creating experiences that you would like to avoid * The mindset tweak that helped fast track manifesting the things we want * How we rinse and repeat this process over and over again
On May 21, 2017, I had the honor of hosting the sold-out Soul Fueled Summit live event right here on the New Hampshire seacoast. It was a life-long dream realized and when I walked out on to that stage, it felt just like I had imagined it would. It was a beautiful way to experience the sweetness of the physical manifestation I had been waiting for.
In this episode, I will give you a full recap and download on what I learned as a result of realizing this dream and hosting this epic day for the souls who found their way to join us.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * The powerful difference between choosing what you can and "should" do * The gift of inviting others to collaborate and bring themselves to enhance the experience * The unexpected magic of reflecting and celebrating life-long goals realized with others * How to trust yourself to take the next step on your life & business journey * The power of taking the leap, making the deposit and taking massive action to pursue your goals. * Plan an epic soundtrack.
MAKE IT SO EPIC THEY HAVE TO SEE IT TO EXPLAIN IT!
Tori Sullivant is a joy seeker and trauma thriver. This strong woman has countless reasons to define herself as a victim and keep to the sidelines of life, but she instead, she has chosen to look at life as an opportunity to learn and to give. I’m honored to share her story with you and to amplify her light that still glows after so much darkness.
Tori watched tornados destroy two towns she’s lived in, she survived a terrorist bombing and lost her baby son just hours after he was born. She has battled severe PTSD and anxiety, and ultimately found a way to rise through the pain and darkness to serve the lives of others and create a non-profit in her son's name.
Tori has presented us with an opportunity to find a new perspective on the trauma and challenges in our own lives through her inspiring story.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How to change your perspective on challenges through your reaction * How speaking out about your grief will make a difference * How faith and alignment helped Tori move through grief * Why Tori never self-identified as a victim * The importance of sharing your truth and your story
TORI’S STORY: * Targeted by Somali terrorists in Uganda * Lost her son to congenital heart disease * Had her best business month and started a non-profit during her darkest time * Now coaching women to find joy through grief
WHAT I ASK: * What has helped you unravel and move through suffering? * What motivated you to never self-identify as a victim? * How has your story changed your life and business? * How do we learn to value ourselves and our story?
SOUL FUELED QUOTES: “I reached a point where surviving wasn’t cutting it anymore. Clearly, I’m here to do more than just breathe and walk around if I’ve survived all these things.”
“We don’t know what’s going to happen, but we have so much power in our ability to react.”
“So many people get stuck on their healing journey because they don’t allow themselves to feel.
“It was survival for me to find joy and hope in life. It was pure defiance. It’s very easy to throw in the towel. I didn’t want that.”

From spending a ton of quality time with amazing soul sisters to learning from a whole host of amazing trainers to loads of dancing and holding hands with Celine Dion (!!), I had an incredible time at my network marketing company’s Global Training Conference.
It was my first time in attendance and not only was I incredibly inspired, but I was affirmed in the divine recognition that I have been guided to this choice…to the creation process of two thriving businesses that support my big vision and make way for a legacy of love, growth and exponential contribution.

Hello friends, welcome back! This is a quickie! I’m on the road and I’ve been inspired with a new idea, from my friends on The Beautiful Writer’s podcast. Their recent episodes with Anne Lamott and Glennon Doyle Melton have touched my soul and called me to share these words with you.

“I’m never going to get the love that I so deeply desire from others in the way that I can give it to myself.”
“If we don’t serve ourselves, we cannot serve others.”

In this Soul-Fueled CEO Masterclass, we cover topics like anxiety, self-worth, taking the leap in business, and so many other things. We dissect the power of The 5-Second Rule, and how you can apply it to your own life to kickstart massive transformation with small, powerful changes.

What was the course of action you took to get out of it? * Can you use the 5-Second Rule to hear the praise and positive affirmations people are trying to say to you? * Are there any moments when the 5-Second Rule hasn’t worked for you and do you give yourself consequences when you don’t do what you should do?
SOUL-FUELED QUOTES BY MEL ROBBINS: “Behind any success story, there’s at least 10 years of suffering.”
“You can always control what you say, what you think, and what you do.”

Laura Thompson Brady and I met at our beautiful Maine Mastermind, a sacred circle of women entrepreneurs and soul sisters that meet monthly. Laura joined our group a few months after its inception; but, it's almost as if there was a space in the circle waiting just for her.
This conversation had to be one of my most favorites on the podcast to date as we went deep in to her story and what lead her to making a declaration her work that sharply contrasts her background in academia. We dove in to the presence of sacred cycles in nature and in our lives and how leaning in to them is a process of allowing that many have yet to experience.
Perhaps my favorite quote of the whole episode was when Laura said, "Allowing myself to do what I was called to do was where the magic awaited me...to simply BE who I am was my pathway to freedom."
Laura Thompson Brady, Ph.D. & founder of The Nourished Home, believes that your life is meant to be a joyful, soul-stirring adventure. She’s on a mission to help you awaken your Inner Wise Woman so that you can transcend your fears and come into an enlivened state of joyful leadership.

Laura guides the Mama on a Mission Movement, a collective of visionary women who are stepping “outside of the box” and leading the way to greater harmony, freedom, healing, and joy for their families, the communities they serve, and the larger world we call home. Laura lives with her husband and two girls in Maine.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * How to create more harmony, peace and trust within yourself and your work. * What it means to be a joyful change-maker. * How Laura built her successful, world changing business from scratch as a mama to two little ones. * How to create an offering that provides healing and meets the world's urgent need inside our businesses. * How the intersection of the cycles in nature and in our bodies and hearts is the missing piece in today's modern business world.
I had the gift of meeting Danielle through a mutual friend on Facebook. Danielle was offering free 10-minute conversations and to be honest, I do not even remember what the offer was, I just knew that I needed to speak with this woman.
In less than 2 minutes, she had pinpointed an area of my life that felt like a deep, burning hole of sadness that I had been glossing right over. I was in tears and feeling seen in a way that I couldn't see myself.

I met Chris Fraize almost a year ago after a friend referred we seek his help with training our sweet (and wild) dogs. I met with him for a consultation at his headquarters, Canine Solutions Training Services. Needless to say, it was clear we had A LOT of work to do.
What struck me the most was how Chris pinpointed some of my biggest insecurities and struggles in the session and pointed them out to me with a proverbial laser beam. He has a deep love for dogs and recognizes that by helping their people be the leaders in their lives and families, he is also changing the lives of their dogs.
He is a former standup comedian and has been approached by multiple reality TV networks for his very own shows; but, he has chosen to forgo those opportunities because they did not feel in alignment with his core message.

I can't wait for you to listen to this epic conversation and to also take away some great tips for working with your dogs, as well.

There is no doubt that I am a recovering perfectionist and control-freak. It's an on-going evolutionary process that has taken all the years of my life to unwind. Now that I have pin-pointed this knee-jerk tendency, I have spent loads of time not only trying to identify the places in which it pops up most, but to also make conscious choices to move swiftly in the opposite direction.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * My top 10 radical ways to feel free right now. * How my wild experiment of 24-hours of freedom will help you change your life. * Why cracking open your calendar and drawing beautiful boundaries in the proverbial sand will make you feel more free instantly. * What my garden taught me about freedom. * Why we've made annual vacations a new family tradition and a total non-negotiable. * Why buying a pair of hot new boots transformed the way I feel about myself and what's possible in my life.

Adrea Peters is an author, mentor for writers and co-creator of Storytelling Ink writers retreats. Adrea is launching a new arm of her business called Feed Your Flow that includes travel services and ways to fuel your body, mind, spirit so you may become the stories you long to be.
In this episode we discuss how to feed the energy that feeds your flow and how a story is the way we connect the dots of our lives.
Adrea and I discuss how every entrepreneur can overcome resistance (it has to do with grace and ease), along with how to live a life of presence now.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: * What Adrea does to get into the healthy, thriving, in-your-body-and-soul-kind-of-moment that is her flow. * Why Adrea says we are always the heroes of our own story (and how that relates to everything)! * The universal 7-point storyline and how to use it to connect more fully to your tribe (Adrea says it’s part of our DNA). * Amber’s story of the mind-blowing meaning behind her Jurassic Park writer’s retreat with Adrea in Kauai. * Adrea's #1 ingredient to creating time for herself to do what she loves. * Adrea’s Golden Ticket question to writing (and to life).
ADREA'S 7 POINTS OF STORY OVERVIEW 1. An Image of You Now.
This is that warning or perfect-feeling place you may or may not be paying attention to right now. It could be a beautiful snapshot of you creating a gorgeous floral arrangement in your new office, or tossing a new mound of clay onto the wheel, or making dinner reservations for you and your sweetheart. It is a literally a “before picture.” The image in our minds we always go back to when we start our stories. Just before “that” happened.
2. Where Things Are: The Essential Background.
This is where you are at in your life, as it relates to the image from the previous moment. You have a day job. But you want to do your art full time. You are dating, but you want to be married. You make mugs for your friends, but don’t sell them.
3. Inciting Incident: A Trigger. A Shock.
This is that moment when things change forever. The phone rings. Someone wants your photos for their gallery. A space has opened at the farmer’s market. Your lover wants to talk. You fall. You’re fired. You get an email from an old boyfriend.
4. No. Way. Will. I. Change. Leave me alone. I can’t do it.
This is where fear kicks in big time. We do the opposite of the opportunity before us. What if you fail? Or worse, succeed? Then what? You said yes to the gallery, but have no prints, no frames, and no money, and your confidence is running out the door. He asks you marry him, but you want to go to law school with your ex-boyfriend. An agent calls, he wants your manuscript, but you don’t send it so the agent can’t reject you. You know you need help, but can’t take it. We know better, but we sabotage ourselves anyway. It’s safer to fail, to keep it a hobby, to hide our words, and our longings.
5. Okay. What do I have to do?
At some point—sometimes within seconds, sometimes it takes decades—we shake off our fear enough to dip into the new life we wanted all along, only to discover we have a lot to learn. Not knowing everything is a good thing. This is the MIDDLE of your story. It is filled with messing up, losing, failing, and flailing until we learn what we need to, and develop our skills, our backbone, and let our confidence return to us in order to ready ourselves for permanent, lasting transformation.
6. No. Turning. Back. Now.
It wouldn’t stick if we didn’t have to fight for ourselves. There is inevitably one last BIG thing we have to overcome before we are triumphant. We have to apologize. We have to forgive. We have to let go of the old ways. We have to quit that job or take out that loan or leave someone or something behind that we don’t want to. Often this is the moment of certitude: I will not turn my back on my dream any longer. Nothing will stop me from making my art or marrying this man or healing these wounds or selling my work.
7. The New You Emerges
The dust settles and here is another moment, another blip of you as the new you. Where are you now? What do you look like? You send that manuscript. You greet guests at that exhibit opening. You walk down the aisle. You hug the person you forgave. Your body is not the same. Your mind is clear. Your heart is open. You are a new you.

It's 8:30 pm EST and my daughter is turning her bedroom lights on and off. She is reading every book on her bookshelf and she is most definitely not asleep.
These 2 hours are my sacred time. It's her wind-down, quiet time and it's my time to catch up on emails, to work on my manuscript and veg with a cup of tea.

In this week's episode, I share a behind the scenes look and the lessons I garnered after a decade-long career in collegiate athletics and how it relates to running my own business.
As a former Associate Athletic Director for the University of New Hampshire marketing department, I did everything from design mascot characters to build culture-shifting programs to engage the student body and alumni-alike.
I worked at hundreds of athletic events, sang the national anthem at center ice and even got to wear those mascot costumes on rare occasion.
It was a thrilling first "real world" job and one that absolutely prepared me for the jungle of entrepreneurship (especially as a work from home mama!). I shared a great story about an on-field run-in with one of my favorite coaches (and most intimidating people on the planet) and the lessons I learned as a result of having to roll my sleeves up and hit the bleachers for post-game clean up crew.
WELCOME TO THE SOUL FUELED CEO™ PODCAST! I am so thrilled to welcome you to my newest adventure and to this incredible outlet to connect, share and expand together! The Soul FueledCEO concept was divinely inspired after a incredible conversation with my friend Mike Watts in a group call a few weeks ago.
He was really emphasizing the power in valuing ourselves as the number one business and life strategy for success. He was giving the women in the group credit for being mothers, for birthing babies, for going through one of the most challenging physical and emotional experiences known to mankind and I could see the glow on the faces of the women as his words touched their hearts.
I left the call feeling inspired and pulled to dig deeper, to create something from a place I hadn't been able to touch just yet...and I woke up with the words "Soul Fueled CEO" on the page during my morning writing practice.
This podcast is for the visionary, the dreamer, the disruptivator and the passionate soul on a mission.
We do not follow someone else's formula for success, we trust the pull of our own souls to take the bold and inspired action steps necessary to create the lives and businesses of our dreams.
We intentionally cultivate a career and life journey that tells the bigger story, serves a higher purpose and, most importantly, fulfills us from the inside out.
WE ARE SOUL FUELEDCEOS. Check out the episode #1 to learn more about what it means to be a Soul Fueled CEO and about the 10 core components that make up the foundation of some of the most incredible leaders I've ever known.

On the show we talk about the power of authentic friendships and what a game-changer ours has been to our lives and businesses. Rachel shares how the story of her life has lead her to the work she does today and what trusting the tug of her soul has taught her.
