Self trust with hard decisions can feel… well, hard! Learning how to trust yourself to make decisions, & trusting yourself to make the RIGHT decision, is an essential step to learning how to live with greater ease, freedom & fulfillment.
There are many types of trust yourself exercises that support you to foster self trust. Today, I’m sharing five journal prompts to foster self confidence. These questions can be reflected to foster self trust when full of doubt, illuminate how to believe in yourself and have confidence, or utilized with specific circumstances such as fostering self trust for women business owners.
Walk through each question with curiosity & compassion. You are exactly where you need to be, there is always opportunity to grow, & you can always begin again.

Trust yourself to make decisions.
Self trust with hard decisions can feel nearly impossible if you can’t stop your mind from spinning. Overthinking is a common theme amongst my clients as a life coach for women. Learning how to build self-trust and foster self trust is vital to build self confidence for women - and therefore, stop overanalyzing and trust yourself to decide.
There are multiple videos on this channel that talk about self confidence for women and self trust for women - including trust yourself exercises, trust yourself motivation and self trust for female business owners specifically.
Today, we expand the topic of self confidence for women to cover how to believe in yourself.
It’s okay to feel full of doubt, and - it is my mission to empower self confidence for female business owners and self trust for women business owners; I believe our world is a better place when more women own their worth and confidently step into their greatest potential.

This guided meditation for work and business success supports you to stop overanalyzing so you can get unstuck in business.
Rather than overthinking or overcomplicating your current season by asking HOW to stop overanalyzing everything (which, oftentimes, leads to more analysis rather than less), use this meditation for business owners to stop your racing thoughts and return to the present moment.
As a life coach for women, I am excited to support you and my clients with this morning meditation for entrepreneurs. Use this as a meditation for business growth, or as a “get out of my head meditation” - also commonly searched as a stop ruminating thoughts and anxiety meditation, stop thinking meditation, and stop complicating meditation.
Take a deep breath and enjoy.

Calum Scott blew audience members & judges away with his bgt audition Dancing On My Own. Dancing On My Own by Robyn has a far different feel than what Calum presented at the Britatins got talent auditions.
Britain’s got talent has some fabulous auditions supported by Simon Cowel, David Walliams, Alesha Dixon & Amanda Holden. To date, however, Calum Scott’s golden buzzer audition may be the best.
Join me as I share my bgt reaction video of golden buzzer Calum Scott with bgt best auditions.

As a life coach for decision making, one of my clients’ most common challenges is how to overcome self doubt and fear.
When facing self doubt, you may immediately wish to combat doubt - but if you try to control doubt, rather than build a relationship with it, you miss vital information such as the values your doubt is trying to share.
In other words, learning how to manage doubt is different than learning how to get over doubt; it is learning how to trust yourself to change.
When you are doubting yourself, utilize these 7 questions to overcome doubt and foster trust. Today, I am your life coach for self doubt and trust.

I may regret this decision in the future…
Have you ever had that gut feeling? Or questioned: “Am I making the wrong choice? Am I making the wrong decision?”
If you’re already asking yourself, “Will I regret this decision?” - I have good news: you are close to finding your answer.
What I’ll regret in 5 years (or how to know if you’ll regret it) starts with one prediction: predict what I’ll regret.
You may question the validity of a simple prediction, but that’s where this gets even better: the answer to “What will I regret in my future?” is likely the same as your answer to “What am I regretting now?”
Don’t do something you regret. Ask these 5 questions today, & decide to live a life you’re proud of.

I thought of YOU as I watched this video.
Dylan Zangwill’s America’s Got Talent audition is a representation of what’s possible when we overcome doubt, step into the most full version of ourself, & hit our own golden buzzer.
This may be one of the best America’s Got Talent Auditions of 2021 - & they didn’t even press the agt golden buzzer! Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Sofia Vergara & Heidi Klum applaud Dylan Zangwill as a brave 14-year-old who got up on stage with humility & courage to share his version of Somebody to Love.
I shared a life coach reaction video with Nightbirde’s It’s Okay America’s Got Talent Golden Buzzer audition a few weeks ago - & I am excited to see you loved it! So, I’m back to react to Dylan Zangwill’s audition this week.
I thought of all of my clients, members, & the Yes& community (including every subscriber here on YouTube & Instagram) - because Dylan is a representation of us all.
Enjoy my Dylan Zagnwill reaction video for America’s Got Talent 2021.

As a life coach for professional women, I’ve heard a theme in my one-on-one & group coaching sessions lately: normal feels scary. I hear my clients questioning what to do after covid quarantine. “I don’t know what to do with my time.” “How do I return to normal?” & “Should I make a change?” have surfaced multiple times.
It can feel overwhelming to figure out how to navigate life transitions. On top of change overwhelm, however, there also seems to be a pressure to use covid to change your life.
“Choose your life, don’t settle for it,” is a beautiful motivator… or heavy weight, depending on your current circumstance. The truth is, we have all endured some level of trauma over the last year. Thus, for most of us, now is a time for compassion rather than unnecessary stress & pressure to make the most of a situation.
Today, I walk you through 5 questions to navigate your post-pandemic world. We’ll answer your questions such as “What to do with my time off?” & “Should I take this opportunity?” I will guide you to mourn what is lost, & excitedly anticipate what is to come. Throughout it all, we will remain compassionate rather than pressured.
You may be in a unique opportunity to make a change, but that doesn’t mean it has to be stressful.

How can you REALLY trust yourself to make decisions, even when you’re full of doubt?
This week, I’m walking you through one of my favorite trust yourself exercises so you can trust yourself to decide and foster self trust for whatever is to come. (Plus, it’s EASY & FUN!)
How to build self-trust is a tricky challenge if you’re looking for self trust when you’re already full of doubt. Trust yourself motivation videos only get you so far when doubt feels like a speaker booming in your mind.
Self trust with hard decisions comes before the hard decisions & self doubt appear - ideally. No matter where you are in your journey, however, today’s exercise will help you feel more trusting & confident now - while setting yourself up for future successes to come.
This exercise can be applied to anyone, & is particularly geared to build self trust for women and self confidence for women. Further, as a life coach for professional women, this practice will enhance self confidence for female business owners.
Thank you for tuning in!

Whoa - not the answer you were expecting?

From one perspective, you may refer to this activity as mental clarity journaling or a journal to clear your mind - but this is far more entertaining than writing words on a page. This activity invites you to journal for focus by considering what CHARACTERS live inside your head. Before you think, “Marin, that’s far too weird…” - let me assure you, this is easily one of my coaching clients’ favorite activities.
By creating caricatures of the voices inside your head, you will feel excited to journal to organize your thoughts; you will journal to unscatter not only for a clear mind and to make a well-informed decision - but to find compassion & laughter with your wonderful self.

What happens when you follow your heart? The reality of achieving your dreams looks different than I predicted it would. Younger me had no idea what to expect when you pursue your dreams - & more specifically, what to expect when you quit your job in pursuit of said dreams.
If I could travel back in time to give advice to my younger self, I’d share what I wish I’d known before quitting. I’d share what happens when you follow your heart… what to expect when you pursue your dreams...
Younger me believed the reality of following your heart was happiness & bliss. It turns out true life change includes another important component - something no one warned me about.
I cannot travel back in time. Thus, I provide you with the motivation & life coach advice I wish I’d had.

Is life coaching worth it? This life coach reacts video is a response to “why life coaching is a scam” - a short clip published by “Get The Picture?” Get the Picture’s video shares a life coach review that is, well... not all positive. The video talks poorly of the coaching industry and bashes Tony Robbin's life coaching in the process.
I film this reaction video to provide another perspective about what life coaching is - & what life coaching is not.
As a life coach myself, I am biased in my own right. I have experienced expansive success working with a life coach to foster true life change personally & professionally - & I witness life-changing transformation with my clients every single day. (Hear their stories in my testimonials playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMK3v-cazXqUxpYck9yt9ZlUMuD-NhDk4)
Within this work as a life coach for professional women, one of my cornerstone beliefs is that, ultimately, only YOU know what is best for you. Thus, as you watch today’s weekly spark, I encourage you to feel for your own truth: Should I get a life coach? Is it a scam, or is it absolutely worth it?

How to achieve your most ambitious goals without stress or burnout. Top tips for goal achievement include creating SMART goals, writing down your goals, building a plan & sticking with it through increased focus, a don’t give up mentality, new habits, and going ALL IN.
Notice how many of these tips are ACTION focused. This isn’t a bad thing, per se, but if we don’t find balance between the motivation for hustlers mentality and the importance of setting goals in the first place (to experience fulfillment and happiness), following action-focused tips to achieve your goals faster is a recipe for burnout.
Today, I’m sharing how to achieve your goals and dreams from a new perspective. Because you can change your mindset and achieve anything - without compromising your health or wellbeing in the process.

Practice these four essentials & you, too, will feel not only inspired & clear about your goals for 2021 - but self-efficacious with the tools to achieve them in real, sustainable ways.

Every morning, I spend 30 minutes journaling with the same five prompts.
Five prompts that focus my mind, actions, & energy. Five prompts that foster greater self-awareness. Five prompts that get me unstuck from a negative, hamster-wheel headspace. Five prompts that propel my greatest life.
So, what are the five prompts?
What am I grateful for?
What dreams & goals am I focused on?
What do I need to let go of to achieve these dreams & goals?
What am I open to receive?
What is my ONE thing?
On this Tuesday’s Weekly Spark, I’m sharing why these five prompts are so powerful to live a life of expansive alignment, & how you can utilize them (even during holiday weeks like this one!).
Earlier this year, Annie purchased 6 months of coaching for herself (exactly when it made no "logical" sense to make that large of an investment).
Today, she's sharing her vulnerable story with you.
Her coaching journey was NOT a 180 degree transformation. Rather, Annie shares her experience with coaching as one of subtle, internal shifts that fostered her ability to:
- Start a cooking course & build confidence that it's possible to make money outside of an energy draining, misaligned job,
Set boundaries that foster deeper connections with those around her (& unearthing connection as one of her greatest values), and
Shift her perspective from a lifelong resistance to rejection to proclaiming rejection as the KEY to her growth.
Watch Annie's gorgeous story unfold, & invite yourself to question: "Is this a gift I'm called to give myself?
What would be possible if, just like Annie, I showed up for myself to shift the trajectory of my story moving forward?"

Are you wanting structure, while totally rebelling against structure? You love creating lists & feeling productive by checking one item off at a time…. yet at the end of the day or week still feel like you haven’t accomplished anything? Today, I’m walking you through a 4 step framework from my group coaching program to provide you with everything you need to create a schedule that is productive & efficient - & FEELS that way, because it’s based on your true goals, priorities, intentions, & energy giving activities.
If your personal & professional life feels scattered & without direction - pressing you to continue getting it all done while inching you closer & closer to burnout with each box checked - you’ve likely missed the shadow. Today, I’m sharing what essential step you must take BEFORE you plan, & a mini how-to guide to implement it.

Panelists, including alignment coach Marin Laukka, discuss mentoring & advising companies along with understanding Psychology as a positive force to better their businesses & better the good they’re bringing to the world.
I don't have to be the one to tell you 2020 has been a whirlwind, but whether you are starting a business, you're navigating a marriage, or you have a big goal in front of you, perseverance is a quality that many of us aspire to have, & can oftentimes feel like a challenge.

"There’s part of the Alignment process that you are afraid of - & thus, currently avoiding. Don’t feel bad - I’ve avoided it in the past, as well, & so have all of my clients. Furthermore, our entire world has been invited to experience this part of the journey in real time - yet very few of us have embraced the opportunity. Which is a bummer, because this part of the process holds power & magic for those who are courageous enough to say, “yes.”
What I’m speaking of is the in between,
& Reader, it's magic."

Many of my clients over the past week expressed confusion in such dichotomy: not wishing for our current circumstance… while admitting they had longed for it. Potentially our answer is, “yes, &…”
I, for one, am a firm believer that when we follow what brings us joy & love & freedom - we foster others’ ability to do the same. On the contrary: if you force yourself to suffer & blame & dim your light - right now, especially - there would be one less hero in a story that needs you most.

Is an automated 8am Wednesday newsletter the life or death of it? I missed my self-imposed deadline to send you The Weekly Spark at the normal hour this morning. This insignificant event prompted me to re-center with my “why,” & support you to do the same. What if lessening the stress in your life was as easy as choosing not to care about things that don’t matter? How might this choice be the most productive, expansive, & life-giving action you make this week? & although this isn’t guaranteed, will you dare to try, nonetheless, knowing there is a chance at something greater?

If you’re feeling scattered & overwhelmed, it is not because you don’t have the answers - it’s because you’ve focused on the WRONG answers. The answers you've followed thus far benefitted you to a certain point. Why it’s no longer working, is because you are no longer a child; You are in a new stage of development & up-leveling - which requires a new level of understanding & learning.

At some point, we all walk into the arena; We step confidently into the waters’ edge with heads held high, though our heart races, slightly naive to the true magnitude of what is to come. And how beautiful: to be ready enough.
I want to share an image that reminds me of you.

You work so damn hard… & you are exhausted.
But even more, you are motivated to do what is right.
I have good news, & I have bad news.
The bad news will be a hard pill to swallow...
The good news is magic, & will lead you to the life you’ve chased for years.
Are you ready?

For me, the realization hit in the midst of graduate school. I began to question how a path that was full of stress & "grind" mentality could lead to what I imagined success would feel like: happiness, ease, expansion…. Today, it is my honor & mission to give you the same permission I gave myself years ago.
If you've "achieved success," will you dare to ask if this is what you thought it would be? Or do you feel, in your gut, there must be something more?

Because bold, loud, nearly unfathomable dreams require bold, clear, unwavering support. Do it today, or do it later - Whenever you do, your dream will follow.
In those times when I had a coach by my side, my dreams manifested; I felt supported, confident, & had the space to dig deep for clear, direct, aligned action. Alternatively, in times when I declared powerful desires & longed-for shifts but did not have a coach by my side… I acted out of fear, felt lost, & ultimately postponed the inevitable: necessary support.

I take away a little bit of the New Year spectacle to diminish some of its weight - to return that weight where it belongs: to you. & if that already feels heavy, please know I am with you - ready to support as well. You are capable of anything you desire. & you are also still you - even though the year has turned over. Embrace YOU as you walk into just another new year.

This holiday season, shine light upon the incredible that surrounds you - no matter if it looks different than you thought it would; no matter if you long for something else, looking forward. Share what lights you up, & remain unapologetic about following your truth.
If your inner dreams are met with resistance, draw boundaries. Draw boundaries to safe harbor your light, & draw boundaries to allow it to shine even brighter, where it feels best - to foster its existence, & your trust in it.

Can you hear it, too?
Your voice is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. It has already changed lives. It has healed & celebrated, & offered mind-opening insight in offices & dining rooms. Your voice is one of the most important sounds I have ever heard. Please. Hear it. Trust it. Use it.

My heart broke when I heard you dismiss the quiet, daring voice that radiated from your core. Because later is never guaranteed, “later” almost always feels exactly the same as the present, & NOW is the perfect time to begin.
“Maybe in this life,” reader. “Maybe, now.”

Dear reader, where did you get the idea it had to be a certain way? When did you decide what was “right,” what you “should” do, what’s not allowed? What if you are making it harder than it needs to be? What if you simply allowed yourself to do what feels good? What does that look like for you?

I love you, Reader, & because of that I don’t care about your EXCUSES, I care about YOU. Today, you are either going to say YES to showing up & finally pursuing what has been yours all along. Or. You’re going to say “No.” What will it be?

My name is Marin Adele, and I am the business owner of Yes&, LLC. As a coach, I endorse an important balance between the utility of research and data with authentic experiences and wisdom. A Master’s degree in positive developmental psychology established my foundational, research-based understanding of the practices and outcomes that constitute a life of flourishing and wellbeing. Professional training in the field of evaluation revealed the importance of accountability and data-driven decision making, and provided me with a unique skillset to utilize in the development of Yes& programs and client work. Moreover, certifications in yoga and life coaching cultivated my ability to ask powerful questions, hold grounded space for reflection and exploration, and guide myself and others toward a full, authentic life.
I believe it is paramount to maintain a healthy work-life blend. Rock climbing is my latest active adventure, and I will always make room for chocolate peanut butter ice cream. Of utmost importance, I also have an overwhelming love for dogs.
Through Yes&, I offer one-on-one coaching packages, workshops, and an annual client retreat. One of my favorite parts of the job is jumping on the phone with a client for the very first time; I am consistently awe-struck by the capability & courageous transformation of people, and I would be honored to share this experience with you.
