Your body is not being dramatic. It might be being brilliant.

I sit down with Cindy Costley, speaker, trainer, and creator of the Electromagnetic Body Desensitization Technique (EBDT), to talk about the hidden patterns our bodies carry and why symptoms often have a purpose. Cindy shares her lived experience of severe allergic reactions that began in her teens, years of functioning in survival mode, and the startling realization that what looked like random illness was actually a patterned protective response tied to stress and trauma.

We get practical and specific about trauma integration and nervous system regulation. Cindy breaks down the difference between releasing emotions and integrating safety, why “I am safe” can be more than a comforting phrase, and how restoration reconnects us with the truth that the body can return to homeostasis. We also explore her framework of the six frequencies of human regulation: spiritual, energetic, mental, emotional, physical, and behavioral, and why treating any one layer in isolation can leave the deeper pattern untouched.

Cindy explains what makes EBDT different from many mind-body healing approaches: we start with today’s symptom pattern, identify what it is trying to protect us from, and then trace it back to the moment the body first coded that experience as unsafe. Along the way, we talk about triggers as useful data, the “purposeful pause,” and gentle first steps for anyone who feels disconnected from their body or overwhelmed by chronic stress, anxiety, insomnia, or persistent physical symptoms.

As the day comes to a close, I invite you to slow down, take a gentle breath, and allow yourself to simply be.

In this first Stories for Unwinding – A Gentle Story Before Sleep, we begin with a few mindful moments to help your body soften and your mind become a little quieter. Through slow breathing and a simple Positive Intelligence® sensory exercise, you'll gently shift your attention away from the busyness of the day and into the present moment.

From there, I'll guide you along a peaceful path beside the ocean at sunset. Feel the sea breeze, listen to the rhythm of the waves, and let your imagination carry you to a place where there is nowhere to be and nothing left to solve tonight.

Before we say goodnight, you'll be invited to reflect on one small moment from your day that brought peace, joy, or even the faintest smile. Together, we'll pause to celebrate the quiet gifts that are so easily overlooked and end the day with gratitude, kindness, and self-compassion.

Whether you're looking to unwind after a busy day, calm an overactive mind, or simply create a gentle evening ritual, I hope these moments help you find a little more ease before sleep.

Thank you for spending this time with me. May you rest well, and may tomorrow arrive gently.

Confidence rarely arrives as a lightning bolt. More often, it shows up after you take one small, slightly uncomfortable step and realize you’re still standing.

I’m joined by Belinda Coker, an Australian hiker, writer, and educator who helps women in midlife rebuild confidence through practical adventure and responsible travel. Belinda opens up about the moment she looked in the mirror, didn’t like who she’d become, and chose movement as her way out.

We talk about why “action before confidence” isn’t a motivational slogan, it’s a trainable process that reshapes self trust through real experiences, from early day hikes to longer solo multi day walks.

We also get into the emotional side of hiking: how time in nature can calm the nervous system, loosen negative thought loops, and create the kind of mental clarity that’s hard to access in familiar routines. Belinda shares what people assume about solo adventures, what’s actually true about safety and fear, and how midlife transitions like an empty nest can become a fresh beginning instead of an ending.

Then we shift into a practical lifestyle tool that pairs freedom with stability: house sitting. Belinda explains why it’s ideal for slow travel, saving money on accommodation, staying in safer neighborhoods, and getting real cultural immersion by living where locals live. She also offers resources for getting started, including her free hiking safety guide “Hike It Right” and a discount code for her house sitting fundamentals course. (HSTRAVEL)

What Your Symptoms May Be Trying to Tell You. What if your symptoms are not your body failing you, but your body trying to get your attention?

In this episode of Connect Inspire Create, I’m joined by Beth Mielbrecht for a thoughtful conversation about women’s health, body trust, and learning to listen to the signals our bodies are sending.

So many women are told that everything looks normal, even when they still feel tired, anxious, achy, inflamed, or simply not like themselves. Beth invites us to look at symptoms differently. Not as something to fight, but as communication we can learn from.

We explore how practical health habits and energetic healing can work together, including bioenergetic testing, food-first support, sleep, movement, emotional stress, and the importance of noticing patterns before pushing through.

This conversation is an invitation to slow down, get curious, and begin rebuilding trust with your body one small step at a time.

If you’ve been feeling off and wondering what your body is trying to tell you, this episode will give you a gentle place to begin.

Mindset Matters: Sometimes You Need to Step Away to Move Forward

After a quiet month away from the microphone, I'm sharing a personal update from Portugal and what this season of slowing down has taught me about grief, restoration, and trusting ourselves one step at a time.

Sometimes the bravest thing we can do isn't to keep pushing forward. It's to pause.

In this episode I reflect on:

• Why I intentionally stepped away from the podcast for a few weeks
• A memorable horse-riding adventure through Portugal's beautiful Alentejo region
• What solo travel continues to teach me about confidence and self-trust
• The surprising gift of putting my phone away and simply noticing the world around me
• How movement, presence, and small moments of courage can gently support healing

Grief hasn't disappeared, but it is slowly changing. I'm discovering that joy and sadness can exist together, and that healing often happens in ordinary moments like sharing a meal, watching the sunset alone, cantering along a wide open beautiful beach, or simply sitting quietly with yourself.

If you've been navigating loss, change, or a season of rebuilding, I hope this conversation reminds you that there is no perfect timeline. Sometimes stepping away isn't falling behind or letting go, it can be what allows us to return with a little more strength, clarity, and peace.

Thank you for being here. I'm grateful you're listening.

Your podcast can be heartfelt and still be strategic. I’m joined by Jordan Blair, a podcast producer at Buzzsprout and co-host of BuzzCast, to unpack the real-world basics that separate podcasts that fade out from podcasts that grow. We start with something deceptively simple: your “why.” Jordan shares how clarity of purpose shapes everything from topic choices to guest selection to podcast marketing, and why listeners only return when they know exactly what they’ll get every time they press play.

From there, we get practical about podcast audio quality and listener experience. Jordan explains why “good enough” audio is mostly about removing distractions, and how modern tools can help indie creators sound polished without a studio. Then we move into the part most creators underestimate: engagement. We talk parasocial relationships, how to turn listeners into superfans, and how features like Buzzsprout Fan Mail can make it easy for people to reach you with feedback, questions, and even voice messages you can use in future episodes.

We also cover consistency without burnout, including giving yourself permission to take a break, how to communicate it clearly, and how Dynamic Content can place a timely announcement across your back catalog and remove it later. Finally, Jordan breaks down podcast monetization without the pressure, why listener support can beat ads, and how sponsorships can create stress if you’re not careful. If you’re starting a podcast, restarting after a slump, or trying to make your show sustainable, you’ll leave with concrete next steps.

Perfectionism has a sneaky way of turning a perfectly good life into a project you can never finish. I sit down with author, fiber artist, and motivational speaker Lorie Kleiner Eckhert to talk about reinvention, resilience, and the moment you decide that “good enough” is not failure, it’s freedom. Lorie’s newest book, Chai On Life (a playful nod to “chai,” the Hebrew word for life), becomes our jumping-off point for how to move through big transitions with more self-trust and less self-criticism.

We get practical and personal: why many of us wait decades to give ourselves permission to do what makes us happy, what divorce and midlife singlehood taught Lorie about independence, and how a complicated “perfect” chicken soup recipe captures the problem with overthinking everything. Lorie also shares how quilts became her visual storytelling tool on stages from PTAs to Procter & Gamble, and why returning to simpler, more durable creativity helped her come back to herself.

If you’re feeling stuck, Lorie offers a clear two-step reinvention plan: keep your healthy daily routine even when you’re hurting, then take one tiny step a day toward your new life and write it down in an accountability log. We also normalize therapy and counseling as ongoing emotional support, not a last resort, and we end with a favorite idea: being “flawsome” and giving yourself credit for the brave next step.

Subscribe for more conversations on personal growth, mental fitness, creativity, and navigating life transitions, then share this with a friend who needs a little lift and leave a review so more people can find us. What’s one tiny step you’ll take today?

Midlife gets labeled as “the beginning of the end,” but that story falls apart the moment you meet women who are building businesses at 80, traveling solo, starting podcasts, or simply reclaiming their strength after a hard season. I sit down with Heike Yates, midlife fitness expert, Pilates teacher, and author of Pursue Your Spark, to talk about why midlife is better understood as an upward turning point and how women can rebuild energy and confidence without extremes, shame, or the exhausting pressure to “start over.”

We dig into the mindset shift that changes everything: the idea that you must “let go of the old you” to become “the new you.” Heike pushes back, and I love her take because it honors every chapter you’ve lived. We talk about identity, roles, and what it means to integrate your experiences instead of discarding them. Her onion metaphor lands hard: peeling back layers can bring tears and grief, but it also reveals what’s true underneath and what you want next.

Heike shares the real story behind her book, including a caregiver client who finally returns from a break saying, “I feel like myself again,” not as a throwback to youth, but as a return to her power right now. From there, we walk through Heike’s SPARK framework (Scan, Plan, Take Action, Overcome Roadblocks, Keep Momentum) and why it works for midlife health goals, menopause seasons, career changes, and any moment where you feel stuck. We close with practical guidance on exercise consistency when you’re already exhausted: clear your plate, protect your energy, and let movement support healing instead of becoming another demand.

If you know a woman who needs a gentler path to midlife fitness and real momentum we invite you to share this conversation.

What if aging isn’t a slow closing of doors, but an expansion into a wider life? That’s the heart of this conversation with entrepreneur and longtime podcast host Ande Lyons, creator of Don’t Be Caged By Your Age and an outspoken advocate for thriving after 65.

We talk about how identity shifts as we get older, how internalized ageism quietly narrows our choices, and why “aging out loud” can be a form of leadership. This is positive aging without denial: we name the hard realities, then choose agency, purpose, and visibility anyway.

If you’re searching for healthy aging, reinvention after retirement, and motivation to start something new later in life, the throughline is simple: staying fully alive is a decision you can practice.

We slow down for a short Mindset Matters pause and reflect on why feeling stuck doesn’t mean we need to start over.

I share how staying in the process, taking breaks without quitting, and meeting grief with honesty helps us keep moving forward with more ease.

• bringing back short “bits and bites” style segments between longer guest interviews

• exploring why “new plan” thinking can create extra pressure

• practicing a gentler kind of discipline that leaves room for imperfect days

• staying consistent through seasons of stepping back and returning

• shifting the show’s focus to match life now, including widowhood and long-term grief

• carrying one question into the week to build awareness before change

If you’ve ever done “all the right things” for your mental health and still felt stuck, this conversation will challenge what you’ve been told to expect. I’m joined by Brisbane-based psychotherapist, educator, and author Yildiz Sethi, who makes a clear case for moving beyond coping strategies and symptom management toward deeper healing that actually changes the pattern underneath.

We talk about why the dominant medical model can quietly lock people into labels and long timelines, even as neuroscience, neuroplasticity, and epigenetics keep proving the brain and nervous system can change. Yildiz explains why so much therapy stays on the surface of the conscious mind, and what happens when you finally work with the subconscious instead.

We dig into two powerful sources of repeating struggles: generational patterns carried through family systems and epigenetic inheritance, and personal experiences that get repressed as protection and later show up as triggers, anxiety, anger, or persistent self-doubt.

Jildiz shares how approaches like family constellations and her trauma-informed processing work aim to find the root cause quickly and resolve it safely, not just reframe it.

She also adds an important safeguard: some severe mental health conditions still require diagnosis, medication, and specialist care, and this work is not a blanket answer for every case.

What if the clarity you’ve been searching for isn’t in another strategy… but already within you?

In this episode of Connect Inspire Create, I’m joined by Jennifer Zach, executive coach and author of Somatic Awareness: Leading with Body Intelligence. Together, we explore a different kind of leadership — one that begins in the body, not just the mind.

Jennifer shares her 3N Model™ — Notice, Name, Navigate — a simple, practical framework to help you recognize stress before it takes over, make more grounded decisions, and communicate with greater presence.

In this conversation, we explore:

• Why so many of us override our body’s signals — and what it’s costing us
• How to recognize stress in real time (before it spills into your work or relationships)
• A simple way to pause, reset, and respond with intention
• What it really means to lead with clarity and confidence

If you’ve been feeling stretched, reactive, or just a little disconnected from yourself… this conversation offers a gentle way back.

What if getting funnier could change the way you show up in your life… not just on a stage, but in your work, your conversations, and your confidence?

In this episode of Connect Inspire Create, I’m joined by Lynn Harris, founder of GOLD Comedy—a comedy school, creative community, and content studio where women and non-binary creators grow their voices and build meaningful careers.

Lynn shares how a moment at 16 shaped her understanding of comedy, confidence, and the extra layers many women navigate when stepping into visibility. What began as an observation became a lifelong mission: helping others claim space, be heard, and use humor as a powerful tool for connection and change.

We explore how comedy isn’t just about being funny—it’s about thinking differently, reading the room, communicating with clarity, and building confidence in ways that ripple far beyond the stage.

If you’ve ever felt hesitant to speak up, share your ideas, or take creative risks, this conversation might open a door you didn’t even realize was there.

In this conversation, we explore:
• Why humor is one of the most powerful communication tools we have
• How comedy skills translate into real-life confidence and leadership
• The role of community in helping us find and trust our voice
• What holds people back from being “funny” and how to move through it
• Simple ways to start building your creative confidence today

There’s something quietly powerful about laughter—it softens the edges, opens people up, and creates connection in an instant.

And as Lynn reminds us… when people listen, things begin to change.

The job search can sometimes feel like sending your résumé into a void.

Applications go out… and silence comes back.

In my latest episode of Connect Inspire Create, I sat down with recruiter insider Megan Applegate, who spent years reviewing thousands of résumés and sitting in hiring manager discussions.

Her perspective was eye-opening.

Many highly qualified professionals are filtered out long before a human ever reads their experience. Not because they lack skill, but because their résumé isn’t speaking the language recruiters and hiring systems expect.

In this conversation we explore:

• What recruiters actually look for in the first few seconds of a résumé
• Why the job search often feels like a black box
• The small mistakes that cause strong candidates to get filtered out
• How to position your experience as a solution rather than a list of tasks
• Why networking still opens many of the most meaningful opportunities

Whether you’re considering a career shift, supporting someone in their job search, or simply curious about how the hiring process really works, Megan shares a behind-the-scenes look that brings clarity to the process.

Transitions can arrive by choice. And sometimes they arrive without asking our permission.

In this episode of Connect Inspire Create, I chat with Ashley Jablow, founder of Wayfinders Collective and creator of Life Design School, to explore what it means to redesign your life during seasons of change.

So what is Life Design, really?

In our conversation, we explore:

• How Life Design differs from traditional goal setting
• How to begin when the ground feels unfamiliar
• How clarity and courage coexist with grief
• Why community matters in seasons of reinvention
• What real-life courage actually looks like

I also share, gently, that I am newly navigating widowhood — a word I am still learning to say. Some transitions are chosen. Some are not. Both ask something of us.

If you’re in a season where the old map no longer fits, this conversation may feel steadying.

Ashley is generously offering her free Clarity Kit — a 30-minute on-demand workshop to help you diagnose where you’re getting stuck and get clear about the change you want to make.

If you’re feeling stuck or at a crossroads, this is a beautiful place to begin.

Ever felt life quietly tilt beneath your feet — not in a dramatic way, but enough that you knew something had shifted?

In this episode, I’m joined by Brheanna Myers, who shares how surviving a near-death experience became the beginning of a deeply human spiritual awakening. Together, we explore what awakening really looks like — beyond social media narratives — including the grief, disorientation, and gradual reorientation that often come with it.

This conversation is grounded, compassionate, and practical. Brheanna offers gentle ways to reprogram the subconscious and regulate the nervous system while staying fully rooted in everyday life — work, relationships, and the ordinary rhythms that keep us steady.

In this episode, we explore:

• why spiritual awakening often destabilizes identity before it settles
• ego urgency versus the soul’s longer, quieter timeline
• the brain as an antenna — tuning into frequency rather than forcing change
• kindness as a ripple effect across the collective
• walk-in soul shifts and subtle identity changes
• simple, practical tools like handwriting journals and letters to past selves
• sleep affirmations and 21-day cycles for subconscious reprogramming
• grief as a natural part of awakening — and sensing ongoing connection

If you’re navigating change, questioning who you’re becoming, or simply feeling that something inside you is rearranging itself, this conversation offers reassurance, perspective, and a softer way forward.

In this episode of Connect Inspire Create, I’m joined by Lidia Axe. Coach, strategist, straight-talker, author, and four-time Camino de Santiago pilgrim.

Our conversation weaves together business, trust, consistency, and what it really means to move forward without pushing yourself into exhaustion or self-doubt.

Lidia shares how walking the Camino reshaped her relationship with focus, simplicity, and inner clarity, and how those same principles show up in her work with coaches who are “doing all the things” yet still struggling to gain traction.

We explore the emotional side of building a coaching business, including:

• Why so many capable coaches resist selling — and what they’re actually afraid of
• The idea that sales is service, not pressure
• How clarity (not intensity) creates consistency
• Why niching isn’t about limitation, but self-trust
• How accountability can feel supportive rather than harsh

This episode is especially for you if you:

• Want more consistency without burnout
• Feel uncomfortable talking about your work or selling your services
• Are craving a gentler, more grounded way to stay focused
• Know you don’t need more effort — just clearer alignment

Consistency doesn’t require intensity. Small, grounded shifts paired with honest accountability can create steady momentum.

Marketing that converts isn’t about louder posts or cut-and-paste avatars. It’s about words that work like assets—clear, human, and grounded in what buyers actually care about. We sit down with copywriter and strategist Rachel Allen, whose globe-trotting path from a Hong Kong hustle to a thriving practice shaped a no-nonsense approach to positioning, storytelling, and using AI without losing your voice.

We start by dismantling the half-page “ideal client” myth and replace it with psychographics and lived context—beliefs, pressures, and change moments that drive decisions.

Rachel lays out the four essentials behind every sale

right thing, right person, right time, right way

and explains why you only control a couple of them.

• shifting from demographics to psychographics
• the four rights and why control is limited
• positioning that states what it is and why it matters
• storytelling as a memory and trust tool
• AI as research and drafting support, not a crutch

Cheryl Einhorn is the founder of Decisive, a decision sciences company that trains people and teams in complex problem solving and decision-making skills using the AREA Method. AREA is an evidence-based decision-making system that uniquely controls for and counters cognitive bias to expand knowledge while improving judgment. Cheryl developed AREA during her two decades as an award-winning investigative journalist writing for publications ranging from The New York Times to Foreign Policy Magazine, Barron’s and Harvard Business Review.

Ever wonder why some people make decisions easily while you agonize?

• Seeking input from profiles different from your own can help overcome analysis paralysis

Dawn Krusch, organizational psychologist and leadership development specialist, reveals how mindfulness practices bridge the gap from separateness to togetherness by first understanding ourselves and our own needs. Through her personal experience of receiving a "download" during deep meditation that led to launching Psych Around the Globe, Dawn demonstrates how inner work creates the foundation for meaningful connection with others.

• Between 30,000-50,000 thoughts pass through our minds daily, each transmuted through our emotional center
• Connection begins with understanding yourself, your values, and learning to trust your inner guidance
• Active listening requires being truly present rather than simply waiting for your turn to speak
• Effective communication means recognizing others process your words through their unique experiences
• Self-doubt appears universally across cultures, often from thinking others are more focused on us than they are
• Vulnerability about our mistakes and biases creates pathways for others to connect authentically
• Empathy is a skill that can be continuously developed through practice and curiosity
• Psychological resilience builds in layers through daily practices and self-compassion
• All we truly have is this moment – be proud of yourself for navigating life's challenges

What if the patterns you keep experiencing aren't just coincidences, but signs of a deeper loop you're stuck in? Leadership strategist James Robbins had this revelation when he discovered he was living what he calls a "copy-paste life" – experiencing the same challenges, emotions, and even physical ailments on the same dates year after year.

Our conversation explores how we get trapped in these loops and, more importantly, how to break free from them.

At the heart of this discussion is courage – the courage to speak your truth and the courage to be authentically yourself, even when it means facing anxiety or potential rejection. This brings us to what Robbins calls an "appointment with your soul"—a concept inspired by Jungian psychoanalyst Dr. James Hollis. Our soul summons us to conversation, but most people avoid this appointment because it's easier to stay distracted with the busyness of life.

Take time today to ask yourself: What conversation is your soul trying to have with you that you've been avoiding?

• Discover how recurring patterns in life may signal a deeper “copy-paste loop” keeping you stuck.
• Learn why plateaus in business or personal life often reflect inner set points, not just strategy gaps.
• Explore the courage it takes to speak your truth and live authentically, even when anxiety arises.
• Hear James explain the concept of an “appointment with your soul”—and why most of us avoid it.
• Understand why anxiety isn’t a red flag but, as James Hollis says, “the price of the ticket to life.”
• Gain a practical first step: create quiet space in nature (or in daily stillness) to ask yourself what you truly want—without judgment.

Ever wondered what happens when women truly see themselves through fresh eyes? Liz Hansen, owner of Chicago Boudoir Photography, reveals the transformative magic that occurs in her studio every day.

"Is that me?" It's the question Liz hears most often when women first see their unedited photos during a boudoir session. That moment of recognition, seeing yourself as beautiful, powerful, and sensual exactly as you are has changed the lives of over 2,000 women who've stepped in front of Liz's camera since 2018.

What began as Liz's own personal transformation through a boudoir session has evolved into a mission-driven business that goes far beyond photography. With an all-female staff and a commitment to creating a safe, affirming environment, she's built not just a successful studio but a thriving community of over 10,000 women who support each other in embracing confidence.

Liz shares powerful insights about entrepreneurship that apply to any purpose-driven business: "Ready is not a state of being—it's a decision." Whether stepping in front of a camera or launching a new venture, waiting until you feel completely prepared might mean never taking that first step. Her approach of serving just one client per day ensures a "queen for the day" experience while maintaining a sustainable business model.

For women hesitant about trying boudoir photography, Liz's message is simple: you don't need to change anything about yourself to be worthy of celebration through beautiful imagery. And for entrepreneurs struggling with the challenges of building something meaningful, she offers hard-earned wisdom: "Starting a business is the work of a lifetime. It's like having a newborn baby and trying to get it to grow up and be self-sufficient."

Ever feel like something invisible is holding you back in business, despite your best efforts? You're not alone. In this enlightening conversation with spiritual coach and master healer Cheryl Stelte, we uncover how subconscious blocks silently limit our growth and potential.

Cheryl reveals that true transformation happens not at the surface level of mindset work, but by accessing the physical sensations and emotions stored in our subconscious. "Subconscious blocks are encoded in the right side of the brain through physical sensations and emotions, not through linear memories," she explains.

This understanding unlocks why traditional approaches often fall short for ambitious women entrepreneurs.

Cheryl Stelte, spiritual coach and master healer, shares how clearing subconscious blocks can transform both life and business by raising our "safety ceiling" and allowing us to step into our authentic power.

• Subconscious blocks are stored as physical sensations and emotions in the right brain, not through linear memories

• Many midlife women were conditioned not to process emotions properly, creating blocks that limit business growth

• Our "safety ceiling" determines how far we feel safe expanding our business and stepping into our power

• Full abdominal breathing changes brain function and creates a doorway to access the subconscious

• Client success story of a woman who finally launched her business after being stuck for 10 years

• When we heal ourselves, all our relationships naturally transform and improve

• Simple daily practice: breathe deeply into your lower abdomen for 6-8 seconds in and out, asking your body what's in your way

Have you ever noticed how certain words lose their meaning when we hear them too often? Kristan Swan calls these "wallpaper words" – terms like success, gratitude, and grace that become background noise rather than powerful concepts that guide our lives.

In our conversation, Kristan reveals how reclaiming these definitions for ourselves is the first step toward authentic living and sustainable business practices.

Kristan Swan shares her journey from landscape design to business coaching, revealing how childhood transitions shaped her ability to navigate different environments and recognize the "rules of engagement" in new situations.

• Reflecting on "wallpaper words" like success and grace that have lost meaning through overuse

• Exploring the importance of defining success for yourself rather than adopting cultural definitions tied to financial achievement

• Discovering your "spiritual autobiography" through reflective writing prompts that examine life turning points

• Using journaling as a tool for discernment without judgment to recognize patterns in decision-making

• Learning to say "may I get back to you on that" to create space between requests and responses

• Building self-knowledge leads to self-trust, which creates confidence and joy

• Understanding your decision-making style helps you operate with integrity and "do less harm

Sara Nay, CEO of Duct Tape Marketing, reveals how small businesses can break free from marketing overwhelm by creating focused strategies aligned with their business goals. Having consulted thousands of business owners since 2010, Sarah shares her journey from intern to CEO and how the company is evolving its approach in the age of AI.

• Small businesses often burn out trying to "do all things on all channels at all times" without proper tracking
• Marketing works when you have a clear strategy based on business goals and focus on manageable priorities
• The marketing strategy pyramid starts with auditing current efforts before planning new initiatives
• Work in quarterly sprints and allow time for marketing initiatives to show results
• Create "mountaintop metrics" to get a bird's eye view of performance before diving into details

Christy Cox, the Roaming COO, shares how she runs her business from an RV while traveling with her family and helps service-based entrepreneurs build intentional businesses that support their desired lifestyle. After exiting a seven-figure business that wasn't aligned with her family priorities, she now focuses on helping founders design client-centric systems that prevent burnout and create freedom.

• Most entrepreneurs build businesses reactively instead of intentionally, leading to burnout
• Intentionality starts with clarifying your vision for both business and lifestyle
• Client experience is often overlooked as a growth strategy, particularly in service-based businesses

Join us as I welcome my guest Madelaine Weiss, a Harvard-trained Licensed Psychotherapist and Mindset Expert, with an MBA and Board-Certification in Executive, Career, and Life Coaching, who shares not only her professional wisdom but also heartwarming personal stories.

As the bestselling author of “Getting to G.R.E.A.T. 5-Step Strategy for Work and Life,” a coauthor in the “Handbook of Stressful Transitions Across the Lifespan,” Madelaine recently released her personal development book for kids, “What’s Your Story?” The book aims to help young people build lives of resilience, performance, and overall well-being, making it a thoughtful gift for families. By incorporating the hero's journey and other engaging exercises, the workbook encourages children to explore their own narratives and develop a strong sense of self-awareness.

One of the core topics discussed in this episode is the GREAT strategy, a transformative five-step approach to personal growth. Grounding, Recognition, Exploring, Action, and Taming (T) are the pillars of this strategy, which helps individuals transition from psychotherapy to coaching.

Madelaine highlights the importance of grounding in belief and creating a supportive space for clients, enabling them to overcome personal obstacles and foster change. The discussion on action emphasizes the Goldilocks principle, encouraging listeners to take steps that are neither too daunting nor too insignificant, but just right to spur motivation and creativity.

By accepting individuals for who they are, leaders can create an open and trusting environment. Jenna also touches on the importance of body language in non-judgmental behavior, emphasizing that trust isn't just built through words but through actions and demeanor as well.

Emotional intelligence stands out as a critical component of effective leadership. Jenna and Carol discuss how emotional intelligence can be distilled into key elements such as warmth, understanding, and encouragement. These elements contribute to a sense of belonging and purpose, enhancing the overall meaning and fulfillment in one's work. The conversation also explores how reliability intersects with creating a supportive and cohesive team environment, further reinforcing the importance of trust.

My guest today is Dominiece Clifton, the founder of Move And Still, Nourish Wellness Collective, host of The School of Healing Podcast, and author of Hold Space to Heal.

Dominiece Clifton’s work lies at the intersection of connection, community, and change. She empowers women entrepreneurs to build aligned and sustainable businesses and supports organizations by offering tools to prioritize mindfulness and healing.

• Imagine a world where deep breathing was taught in all schools, and kids learned at a young age how to regulate their bodies…
• Imagine a world where mindfulness was incorporated into the workday and working professionals were encouraged to pause and regulate their bodies…
• Imagine a world where first responders and police officers paused to take a deep breath in the face of a fearful situation...
• Imagine a world where everyone had access to simple tools and resources to manage their physical and mental health more effectively…

In this enlightening episode, Dominiece shares her profound journey of self-discovery, spurred by a transformative meditation experience in 2017 when her late grandmother encouraged her to embrace her true calling. Together, we explore the importance of integrating mindfulness into schools and workplaces, and how ancestral guidance can help individuals reconnect with their gifts and navigate life's challenges with motivation and positivity.

Get ready to shift your mindset and tackle common hurdles like imposter syndrome and the scarcity mindset. Dominiece and I unravel practical strategies to maintain motivation and highlight the dangers of comparison and seeking external validation.

We also dive into the CLEAR goal framework, which stands for Cause, Level up, End game, Accountability, and Results, offering you a structured approach to goal setting and self-improvement.

From setting small, manageable goals to celebrating your wins, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you progress with confidence and a renewed sense of purpose.

What if you could let go of outcomes and embrace the present with confidence? Through the lens of the Positive Intelligence model, Carol shares her personal insights into managing personal saboteurs like the controller.

In this episode, I explore how to release the need to control outcomes and how letting go can lead to emotional freedom. By detaching from specific expectations and embracing uncertainty, we create space for growth, learning, and progress. I share a few practical steps for reframing outcomes, setting realistic goals, and building a mindset of adaptability and self-compassion.

• Ask yourself why a particular outcome is important, then set realistic plans to release the need for immediate results.
• Explore areas of your life where outcomes feel less critical and practice a relaxed attitude toward them.
• Shift your mindset by focusing on positive or neutral outcomes instead of fearing the worst.
• Affirm that your self-worth is not tied to external outcomes or validation.
• Embrace mindfulness, practice gratitude, and acknowledge that failure can be reframed as growth.

Action Item for Listeners: Choose one small area in your life where the stakes are low, and practice letting go of your attachment to the outcome. Try to focus on progress rather than perfection and reflect on how this shift impacts your mindset and emotional well-being.

In today’s episode we are going to chat about igniting your voice and finding your fire power with my guest Shā Sparks.

Shā Sparks is an energetic catalyst and fearless communicator who guides leaders to spark their voice through coaching, podcasts, and publications so they can go from fear to fired up about their life and business.

As the CEO (Chief Excitement Officer) of Sparks of Fire International, she is the host of her signature podcast called The Shā Sparks Show along with being a co-host of three other podcasts. She is also the author of How to Get Your Voice Back, a Certified Fearless Living Coach and Trainer, Master Practitioner of NLP, and the Co-Founder of the FIRESTARTERS Book Project.

We focus on the importance of stepping out of one's comfort zone. Routine and familiarity can create a comfort zone that often goes unnoticed until disrupted by new experiences or risks. Shā shares personal insights on overcoming fear. Vulnerability, she explains, is crucial for forming healthy relationships. Recognizing comfort zone limits and understanding the impact of childhood experiences are key steps in this process.

Shā's journey underscores the choice we have to either succumb to fear or embrace new opportunities for growth and healing. She emphasizes that fear is a natural response to new experiences, but it should not hold us back. Instead, we should view fear as an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.

In today’s episode our focus is on helping leaders and shaping organizational strategies with coaching.

I am joined by my guest Angie Alexander, a Professional Engineer, Leadership & Team Effectiveness Consultant, Speaker and a Certified Mental Fitness Coach.

After over 20 years in the oil and gas industry in Alberta, she realized that her technical background combined with her people-oriented approach to working with leaders and their teams was her superpower!

• Perimenopause and menopause
• HRT hormone replacement therapy

"I have never met a woman that does anything the same as another woman when it comes to women's health. So I just love really working with them and on a very individual very, very basic level and customizing their care and tailoring that care to them because there's so many different compartments and specialties and little parts to healthcare. So I always say that each woman is like a Van Gogh or a Monet or a Picasso painting so unique, that it really requires its own breath, throws its own colors. Everything needs to be so uniquely handled in the order that it's handled."

In today’s episode our focus is on the unique challenges (and gifts!) that women in middle and later life face in showing up and aging in the online world and being the face of their business. I am joined by my guest, Suzanne Rothmeyer, a well established brand and commercial photographer.

Suzanne's focus in the last several years has been on the unique challenges (and gifts!) that women in middle and later life face in showing up and aging in the online world and being the face of their business - while simultaneously being a huge force in both purchasing power and creating businesses that are passion+purpose driven. Women in their "2nd Act"!

Our conversation touches on:

• What are some of the roadblocks women have around getting in front of the camera?
• What are some of the myths/misconceptions about "authenticity" online?
• How do you go about telling a brand's story visually?
• Ways you can use branding photos as visual conversation starters on social media.
• How does a prospective client know it's time to do a brand shoot?
• The importance of relatable, storytelling imagery for your website and socials.
• How brand photography helps clients make buying decisions.

*What is branded photography - Suzanne share that it's professional imagery that's unique to you and your business versus say stock photography. So it's really very curated to you, your business, your why and your how of your business. And it's geared to telling that story to your ideal clients.

It's looks a little different for every business, but basically that's what you're doing because you're trying to make this connection. First of all you need to know who your ideal client is. That's the most important first step. Once you know that then you can start crafting this narrative that you are telling to your ideal client to guide them through the process of understanding what it is you do, how it can help them, how it can solve a problem for them, how it can bring something into their life that they need or want and help them and guide them all the way through to that buying decision so that by the time they're excited and they want to do business with you.*

In today’s episode our focus is on "doing less, better." My guest, Donna Dube understands that success isn't solely dependent on piling up tasks and responsibilities; it's about identifying what truly matters and channeling energy into those areas for maximum impact, evolving as an entrepreneur from overwhelmed to empowered.

Donna helps business owners go from solopreneur to confident CEO without sacrificing their life, health or relationships.

Topics we discuss include:

• Discovering how to cut back on spending too much time working "in" your business rather than "on" it.
• Consider how to identify tasks you delegate and which ones to retain for yourself.
• Key habits that successful CEOs incorporate into their weekly routines.
• Creating a weekly roadmap that aligns with long-term business goals.
• What is a CEO power hour!

"So the weekly roadmap starts with what I call the CEO Power Hour, which is a name I gave for basically a CEO date. So if you think about big corporations, that CEO is meeting with the board or meeting with the VP of Sales and Marketing and the different departments to get a handle on what is happening in the business, we need to do the same even though we don't have all those VPS. So we're meeting with ourself. And it's a time each week, one hour set aside on your calendar, recurring at the same time every week. So whether that's a Monday morning for you, or a Friday afternoon, or Sunday evening, whatever that looks like, but have it at the same time every week. And it's non negotiable, meaning you don't book anything else at that time. It's like a meeting that you have to attend, right. And during that hour, you spend time reviewing and reflecting what's happening in your business now, where is it going? And what are your going to be your top three priorities for this next week. And then, after that, a little bit of self care and support. So what do you need as business owner, either from home or from your team to help you will be successful this week?"

Corrie LoGiudice is a business strategist, coach and a professional keynote speaker.

And when you hear her story you’ll understand why she is helping audiences activate extraordinary action in their business and life, no matter their circumstances.

A 4th generation entrepreneur, Corrie spent over 15 years as SVP of her family’s regional distribution business. Following a series of traumatic, pivotal life events over a span of 5 years including miscarriage, abuse, divorce and suicide loss, she made the difficult decision to step down from her role and go into business for herself.

After starting her company Corrie Lo & Co LLC, within weeks she landed paying clients, and in less than a year she was a TEDx speaker.

No one should feel like a failure for not keeping up. Overwhelm is actually a positive sign. It means your strategy needs to be pivoted to accommodate your current reality.

Remember this if you’re constantly stressing yourself out over every decision

Aside from the decision to become a parent, no other decision you’ll ever make in life has to be permanent.

It's safe to trust your intuition, the timing doesn’t always have to be perfect, and it’s always better to have tried something and it not work out than having not tried and regretting it forever.

• How do you push past fear of failure (and learn to enjoy it!)?
• How do you deal with analysis paralysis?
• Why is it so difficult to recognize your own talents.?
• What are the most effective ways to motivate someone to make a change?

Before becoming a book coach and award-winning publisher, Nancy Erickson had a wide array of business expertise. She formerly worked for both IBM and Oracle Corporations, selling high-end software solutions to Fortune 500 businesses. Faced with a family crisis in 2006, she changed her career direction, went back to school to get a Masters degree in Writing, taught at the university level, and started the award-winning nonfiction publishing house, Stonebrook Publishing.

In 2011, she developed a step-by-step process to help entrepreneurs, business owners, coaches, and speakers expand their business by writing a nonfiction book that can be repurposed into other revenue-producing products. The book establishes that person as an expert in their field, increases their credibility, helps attract a following, and is the launchpad for expanding their business. Since then, she's helped hundreds of authors achieve their dream and grow their business.

What does nurturing your own wellness look like? I wanted to take a moment to remind you about the importance of nurturing your own wellness. It is essential to explore what self-care means to you and find ways to incorporate small, loving steps into your daily routine.

For me, I'm taking a well-deserved break to recharge and hit the pause button on both my coaching business and podcast. My family and I are so excited to be preparing to celebrate the marriage of our daughter and her fiancé in Portugal this July. I want to be fully present in the moment and want to cherish the weeks leading up to it. (along with not getting overwhelmed with the preparation!!)

As I temporarily step away, I encourage you to reflect on your own self-care journey . Remember to be kind to yourself above all else. Take this time to prioritize self-care.

I will be back in August with new episodes and as well as with an exciting new coaching package designed to help you overcome over-striving and find balance in your week.

So until August, I'm wishing you an incredible period of reflection, growth, and success while I'm away. Above all make sure the person you are the kindest to is yourself! May you find the balance and happiness you seek.

New episodes in August will be published weekly on Thursdays.

Today we are focusing on finding peace in your week by theming your days.

Before we get into theming your days for a more peaceful week I wanted to share a coach training programme that I am currently wrapping up and to let you know that there is an opportunity for coaches to sign up for the April cohort. The link will be in the show notes. This certainly is an incredible opportunity and I encourage you to see if you are eligible and apply for the grant,

Positive Intelligence is the framework taught by Shirzad Chamine and in the grant programme you are able to explore in great depth and detail what this framework is first for yourself, and then if you wish to continue, there is more learning available about the model to bring this into your coaching practice.

What benefits can you expect when you theme your week?

• Boost productivity
• Improve focus
• Reduce stress
• It helps you work on-purpose, and avoid working by accident, perhaps reacting to other people's agenda.
• Promotes a better business and life balance
• Another great benefit of a themed week is that it can help you to grow your business. As you accomplish things, it will free up your time so you can spend working on your business, ie coaching your clients !

5 simple steps to batch your days

1. Make a list of tasks that need to be done at least weekly.

2. Group them together into categories or themes that make sense to you.

3. Assign each category a dedicated day of the week.

4. Try out your schedule.

5. Assess and tweak as necessary.

Accountability is a combination of mindset and the right tools and systems that work for you in alignment with your personal capacity.

We do need to discover the path that suits our learning style and personality. It can take trying a few different methods as it’s certainly not one size fits all!

My method of the 4C's:

• Clarity - clarity creates the flow of creativity, it can replace confusion with peace and confidence. Once you have clarity you can develop your strategy and then - it's time for action and once you get moving you can celebrate the small steps that you are taking.
• Commitment - you need to first break things down to decide how and what you want to commit to. Start with making a list of where you are spending your time for a week. Include everything you are doing for self, work, others.
• Community - Decide what works for you - is it a Facebook group, LinkedIn group, a mastermind, clubhouse or somewhere you can connect with others that are on the same journey and that you resonate with, that you can feel supported and heard.
• Coaching

[00:01:19] I think as a small business owner, it's really important to look at what systems. You can put in place to be able to make the experience that your customers have enjoyable and efficient. So being aware, I think is the first place to start of just how important it is to have to give reflection, to think about what is the experience that my clients have when they work with me and something that it's.

[00:02:16] This pleasant experience, having the customer journey be one that they remember is it helps you create or present a strong professional image for your business. And I think that's so important cause it gives people confidence to want to work with you. If they feel. You don't have to have it all. You don't need to know it all, but I think presenting a strong professional image definitely conveys a feeling of confidence.

[00:04:44] With that small business. One of the other things that I like to encourage you to do is to think of the different ways that clients can communicate with you.

[00:09:06] And still maintain boundaries. So that is still part of the customer service, but you are entitled to maintain your boundaries. So you could set and stick to clear hours of operation that customers can see on your web presence, in your newsletters, on your social media, perhaps when you are not available, you could create an away message for email inquiries that come in after hours.

[00:09:32] So customers. I have something else on my email signature, where I only like to check emails once or twice a day. And if they're urgent, I will give back to them. Otherwise I prefer a window of time to be able to respond so that I'm not permanently distracted by every single email that pops in. You could have a voicemail message that specifies your hours and when you'll be calling.

[00:09:56] But one thing I do want to leave you with is don't ever skip a meeting [00:10:00] or a consultation with your client without at least giving them some advanced nuggets. So thank you for listening. If you have enjoyed this episode, I'd love for you to share it with your friends. Leave me a review. And as our podcast says, connect, inspire create.

[00:10:17] I encourage you to step into exploring new. Of connecting, inspiring and creating this week. You'll find all our episodes on connect, inspire, create, and I'd love to connect with you on LinkedIn.

The idea that every choice we make in our lives, big and small, leads to the next outcome, the next experience that becomes the story of our life! As well as how each of our choices affects everyone around us, and vice versa. An ongoing ripple effect is created literally worldwide - through the simplest and most mundane of choices we are making every day.

Ask yourself these questions:

• Thinking back over a few of your life choices - what would be different had you chosen a different path
• With hindsight might you have made a different decision?
• What brave risks did you take, and can you remember what made you do it, did it work out OK?

We cover mind mapping in this episode.

It was developed as an effective method for generating ideas by association. To create a mind map, you take a nice big blank white sheet of paper - an open canvas! - and in the middle you start with a central theme or a main idea - you write this down in bold ink. From there you work your way outward in all directions like a beautiful spider’s web and you begin to create a growing diagram or MAP of all the keywords, phrases, concepts, facts and figures spinning out from that key central theme. It’s very free-form thinking; a very visual form of brainstorming but with greater structure and visually connecting the dots. You are walking out a plan for that central theme. The possible steps to accomplish it. That’s a mind map in most general terms. Career, personal life path, breaking through a life challenge or setback, new life transitions, breakthrough to greater general wellness, both physical and emotional.

Remember friendships and business connections require input, effort and active steps to keep these relationships thriving and growing.

How to be patient in a world of instant gratification. Here are some tips we shared.

• Watching the urges and allowing a pause/delay - put some space in between.
• Each decision is best made consciously, instead of just trying to gratify our desires.
• Learn over time. There will be many times when you give in to your urges — that’s OK. We all do it. There’s nothing wrong with giving in sometimes, but the key is to see how that makes you feel afterward, and learn whether the decision was a good one or not.
• Acknowledging the time actually needed to reach certain goals can be helpful when you’re feeling discouraged.

There are several strategies you can work on that will help you increase your ability to wait for delayed gratification. Start small. Delay gratification for only a short amount of time, then increase the time incrementally. You can also make rules regarding purchases, such as giving yourself a “waiting period” between when you see something you like and when you buy it. Finally, don’t forget to practice gratitude and remind yourself of your goals – there’s a reason you want delayed gratification.

If we don’t stick with something through the impatience and the anxiety and the self-doubt and the self-sabotage, we’ll miss the gift of the process! We’ll miss the actual gift of the OUTCOME! Our dream as it were… Also that knowing when it’s time to just stop and set our pride aside… THIS is a courageous decision itself. To know we’re not progressing and to stop not necessarily knowing what our next dream or plan is.

When you’re feeling especially anxious or impatient - whether it’s not meeting a weight loss goal as quickly as you’d like, being passed up for a promotion or - as in my own case, hitting the one year mark on my home-building project - I love to ask the question: “What is true?” The idea is to look for the gifts in the process itself. In spite of feeling impatient, what gifts has the journey or process revealed? In what ways have you grown, and what have you learned in the process?

It might seem paradoxical, but we ourselves can also be a reason for being stuck. Being aware of different aspects of yourself is part of your self-awareness, an ongoing journey.

Healthy habits can also help you to feel more energetic, motivated, inspired, organized and more self-dependent. These positive changes can give you a strong push to get unstuck and move forward with your life.

So here are some ideas I’d like to share

Get Unstuck by 

• finding a new thing to learn
• choosing gratitude
• by decluttering your digital space
• by making planned time for your business
• by taking one step to keep moving forward

In this episode we are going to take you behind the scenes of both of our coaching businesses.

Trish and Carol both offer accountability coaching. Benefits range from focusing on current goals, making progress with intentions and starting fresh habits to move forward and get "unstuck".

Favourite coaching tools include Google docs, Trello for project management, Paperbell for coaching and client management and time blocking on your calendar.

Gretchen Rubin has a framework called Four Tendencies which are:

• Upholders meet both inner and outer expectations.
• Questioners question both inner and outer expectations.
• Obligers resist inner but meet outer expectations.
• Rebels resist both inner and outer expectations.

They usually say a lot about how clients will respond to accountability coaching.

• Obligers generally to get the most out of accountability coaching, as they thrive on outer expectations exclusively.
• Upholders often take on too much, and they often find that an accountability coach can help them prioritize.
• Questioners can get a lot out of accountability coaching, but only if the coach’s approach makes sense to them.
• Rebels don’t care about any kind of accountability, so they generally respond best to “sounding board” type coaching.

Curious? You can take and interpret the Four Tendencies Quiz

This week we are revisiting a popular episode from 2021 on concepts to choose to react or respond.

Consider the following :
A reaction is about the moment whereas a response is about the outcome.

Understanding how my emotions drive my decisions will improve relationships, productivity, and possibilities.

Tips from Trish
Mirroring:

• Starts with listening CAREFULLY to the other person.
• Or if you’re the first to speak, as a “learning” question to warm them up.
• “It’s obvious you’re upset. Can you tell me what’s wrong?”
• If they become angry or hostile, we can schedule a later time to talk.
• If they offer a calm response, we can take a slow deep breath and say,
• “Let me see if I’ve got that… you are angry because…” and then we ask “is there more?” They may have more, may not. We summarize and ask “have I got that right?”

BETTER LISTENING is really at the core with this example of reacting and responding in a way that can more successfully manage or control our emotions in the moment.

"Forgive and forget” as the old adage goes. But it rarely feels so simple, does it? In this Bits & Bites episode, Trish shares how she learned about “forgiveness with boundaries” when a friend breached her trust. With some distance and forethought, you can address uncomfortable subjects with integrity, and move on!

• Step away after the encounter
• Take time to process
• Forgiveness can include healthy boundaries

In many ways, we’ve lost touch with the true meaning of gratitude. It requires reflection and stillness, two things that can be difficult in our busy, overstimulated everyday lives. As a result, we’re also missing out on the benefits of gratitude, which may be greater than many people realize. As it turns out, the effects of gratitude can be important for our overall well-being for several reasons…

• Improved mental health
• Improved physical health
• Stronger social bonds
• Resilience

We are joined by our guest, Angela Mulrooney who is a retired dentist turned personal branding expert.

How did that happen? Listen to this episode as Angela explains

"I had built a referral-based, niche dental practice that allowed me to do the dentistry I loved on clients I loved while earning more and working less. I had it all… until I didn’t.

Overnight, I lost everything after sustaining a career-ending injury that killed my ability to drill.

I had two options:

• I could keep my practice even though I would never be able to drill again
• I could sell my practice and find a new path.

I chose option b.

Given the major events of 2020 and into 2021 that have without question impacted us ALL in some way, our guest and the work he does is as relevant today as it’s ever been.

As some of you might remember, Dr. Don Wood is the creator of The Inspired Performance Institute. He has helped survivors of the Boston Marathon Bombing, the Las Vegas concert shooting, as well as professional executives and athletes to heal from traumatic events.

After years spent researching how atmospheric conditions affect our minds and impact our lives, Dr. Don now helps people from ALL walks of life overcome stress and anxiety with a cutting edge neuroscience process called TIPP or “The Inspired Performance Program”. Since 2015, he’s been applying this revolutionary approach to help people heal from the limiting effects of trauma.

“The Inspired Performance Institute was built on this simple phrase, “There’s nothing wrong with you, there’s nothing wrong with your mind.” During your lifetime some events and experiences have created some glitches and error messages for your mind, and all you need is a reboot.”

How's your happiness?

I like to call it the ness of our happy (happiness)

• Schedule some time in your week to take 10 minutes alone.
• Take a few deep breaths.
• Clear your mind and ask "what does happiness look like to me"?

Hygge - a quality of cosiness, that engenders a feeling of contentment or wellbeing.

This week on episode 32 we reflect back on 2021, and share a few of the highlights, in the form of short soundbites, from a few selected guests! We met so many interesting businesswomen - and men too! And both Trish and I agree we’ve learned so much from these brave solo-preneurs, about everything from…

• How our mindset affects our views, our outlook, and our ability to realize successes in our lives.
• How to brand yourself and your business with clarity.
• How to show up on Zoom and other virtual platforms with confidence and realize greater business success.
• We heard from experts in finance (“power money moves for women'') and marketing, social media and startup advice. And we covered diverse subjects like “how trauma affects our lives” and learned how a single mom on welfare became a powerhouse spokeswoman and advocate on “purpose-driven change” - as well as the founder/CEO of a leading eco-friendly pest control company!
• And of course we discussed the big elephant in the room - the pandemic: the various ways it’s impacted our lives and up-ended some of our businesses, and shared some creative tools and resources to face these hurdles and try to stay on track with our business and our lives in general. To essentially “remain afloat” through the storms of a surreal 2020 and 2021.

I’m Trish Kinney and I am a certified life coach with a focus on what I call “life moderation” - how each tiny choice we make every day - what we eat, who we spend time with, how often we get outside, even when we turn on and off our devices - is directly affecting our general happiness and state of mind. My next “Small Circle” groups kick off the 3rd week in January 2022, and the new topic is: “The Brain/Gut Connection: Choose your Food: Change your Mood!” Each group includes just 4 women, who share 5 sessions and learn a few SIMPLE practices that when added to their days will start them on a gradual path to a more peaceful, healthier, and happier life!

Romana grew up in a village near Salzburg, Austria. The "natural born writer" began to write stories for newspapers and magazines at the age of 20.

In 2020 she founded the Facebook group "Happiness reloaded" and started to organize online networking meetings and online workshops to support people who got affected by the Covid restrictions. "Stay social!" is her main answer to social distancing.

Romana was a long term traveller up to 2020, in "normal years" she travels three to four months per year in her old Volkswagen Camper and supports people to be brave and just travel. Up to 2021 Romana has published eight books and is working on her 9th.

" In 2003 I had a bad accident in Skydiving and this was the first time in my life I realized that life can end within a moment. I talked a lot to people who are afraid of this topic afterwards and realized, that I can give support and ANSWERS.

Within my astrological and psychological studies, I found out a lot about fears, crises and change. That's why I specialized on "Happiness Mindset" and "Tools for crises" in my work."

RomaDrama Live! is the brainchild of best friends and entrepreneurs. Gabrielle Graf Palmer, (an entertainment and sports sponsorship executive), and Sara Lunsford (the “spreadsheet queen and number cruncher” and an ace management consultant). This colossal event was birthed not only in the midst of the pandemic but also at a time when Graf Palmer and Lunsford were experiencing devastating personal losses.

Graf Palmer and Lunsford, who met by chance 26 years ago at the airport in Atlanta when they happened to be dressed identically from head to toe, share a deep bond that has helped them pull through. “I had to lean on Gabrielle to keep the business going and she shouldered much more than her share of the responsibilities,” says Lunsford. “That's what true friendship is. I don't know what I would do without her.”

Suzanne Glover has been teaching in the professional TV and film industry for over 20 years. Now that there is such a heavy need, she’s been reaching out to audiences outside the film industry to succeed in this new “zoom era” that’s putting so many more of us into the spotlight to lead meetings and presentations online.

In her book Be A Video Influencer: Reinvent Your Life & Business As A Midlife Movie Star, Suzanne explains how influencing through video can dramatically change your life and make you feel like the “celebrity of your life.” And she’s also created the virtual program How To Sell On Video, a step-by-step formula to influence successfully on video - overcome camera anxiety, be engaging and persuasive, and use video strategically to market online.

Suzanne is creating a movement where video can be used to enhance life instead of distracting from it.

The $10K Club is looking for a special kind of Queen, and you could be her. Join here

I started on this journey for myself in June when I joined the $10K Club.

(I’m proud to be an affiliate because I believe in her teaching method and coaching smarts. If you join the club I get a commission.)

The 10-day Motivate Mastermind Wellness Retreat for Women in Portugal is designed for women in the early stages of their business journey who are overwhelmed with the opportunities in front of them and feeling stuck. The retreat is a combination of switching things up, getting out of our heads, and setting up the next steps for our businesses.

This includes 3 days of Mastermind Group time with HOT SEATS for each participant to brainstorm and get creative input from your peers and find fresh solutions.

As your mastermind facilitator, I will help you to discover the root causes of overwhelm and learn how to step away from busyness, so you can make real progress on your business goals.

We'll also pinpoint the actions you can take to feel like you're making your best progress ever.

And after you’ve designed your action plan with support from your peers, we'll relax with 3 days at a countryside Quinta just outside Lisbon with time for reflection and self-care.

Welcome to our show, Connect Inspire Create. I am Carol, a digital marketing coach helping women aspiring to simply start the business and take their dreams to plans along with my co-host Trish, a professional certified life coach who helps determined people navigate their big life hurdles and come out stronger on the other side.

We share conversations for women entrepreneurs from around the globe who appreciate travel, a healthy lifestyle and are eager to learn tools and resources to grow their business and thrive in their lives.

This week we are exploring the journey of being an entrepreneur and thoughts on simplifying the journey. Do you offer too many services or products that your clients feel overwhelmed?

The asking: anyone starting or in the thick of a new business, or new goal - must start with these questions:

1. What problem am I solving with this new goal or business?
2. How much money do I first “need” than “want” - to earn?
3. What’s my deadline to achieve this personal or financial goal?
4. Unless you have a multi-year timeline or can hire a team of support staff, this WILL be a full-time commitment at first. Are you able and willing to take on a full-time job? Or is this a “hobby”?

We share conversations for women entrepreneurs from around the globe who appreciate travel, a healthy lifestyle and are eager to learn tools and resources to grow their business and thrive in their lives.

In this episode:

We are chatting with Dr. Don Wood, from the Inspired Performance Institute who will be sharing his expertise on the topic of how trauma affects our lives. We do hope that this episode will change how you view the impact of trauma in your life and how you can start moving forward today.

An introduction to our guest today:

Dr. Don Wood developed the TIPP method after spending years researching how atmospheric conditions™ affect our minds and impact our lives. He went back to school later in life to get his Ph.D. in clinical counseling and psychology, to learn how to heal his daughter’s Crohn's disease and his wife’s autoimmune disease..

The results have been impressive. Dr. Wood has helped trauma survivors from the Boston Marathon bombing attack, the Las Vegas shooting, to highly successful executives and world-class athletes perform at their best.

Dr. Wood has written two books about his research including the science about how our minds work and why we experience our own unique perspective of the world. Both books, You Must be out of your Mind and Emotional Concussions, are focused on how we can all make the desired changes by allowing our minds to reset and reboot.

LINKS:
Sign up here to get the 1st chapter of "Emotional Concussions" and learn how to

• Fall asleep faster & with less anxiety every night
• Put an end to anxiety and panic attacks
• End anxious & intrusive thoughts
• Feel more joy & connection every day
• Perform at your best everyday

Don’s Website, Facebook & YouTube Channel

Thanks for listening if you have loved what you have listened to today about learning more about how trauma affects our lives, we would love you to share it with your friends.

Welcome to mindful bits and bites from the co-hosts of Connect Inspire Create.

I have found what I need to host my courses and products after testing a few and decided that Podia works for me.  It is simple to use, plenty of automation, 0 fees for processing payments and tons of customer support.  I attended a free webinar to walk me through the product and that was what made me decide! Here is a link if you want to explore Podia yourself.  You do get 14 days free.

As Mel Robbins said “Confidence is a skill I’ve built over the years by practicing acts of everyday courage.”

That’s what I did with this free worksheet that I uploaded into Podia. It’s motivating me to take the small steps for my new project that I would like to launch by the end of summer.  Perhaps you’d like to use it to plan next week What can you put it out for your audience next week?

Conversations for women entrepreneurs from around the globe who appreciate travel, a healthy lifestyle and are eager to learn tools and resources to grow their business and thrive in their lives. Join Carol and Trish as we share a variety of topics related to just this!

This week we are exploring concepts to choose to react or respond.

Consider the following :
A reaction is about the moment whereas a response is about the outcome.
and
Understanding how my emotions drive my decisions will improve relationships, productivity, and possibilities.

Tips from Trish
Mirroring:

• Starts with listening CAREFULLY to the other person.
• Or if you’re the first to speak, as a “learning” question to warm them up.
• “It’s obvious you’re upset. Can you tell me what’s wrong?”
• If they become angry or hostile, we can schedule a later time to talk.
• If they offer a calm response, we can take a slow deep breath and say,
• “Let me see if I’ve got that… you are angry because…” and then we ask “is there more?” They may have more, may not. We summarize and ask “have I got that right?”

BETTER LISTENING is really at the core with this example of reacting and responding in a way that can more successfully manage or control our emotions in the moment.

**This week Carol and Trish talk with our guest Rhian Williams from In My Sober Skin.

Rhian quit alcohol on Saturday 14th March 2020 after 15 years of worshipping wine. She became a sober coach because she found the lack of support available frustrating. As a woman, and more specifically a mother, she felt she couldn’t talk to anyone about her drinking problem and felt very ashamed.**

**As an IHPM approved practitioner her mission is to now provide women with a safe, open and non-judgemental environment to talk through their issues and empower them to make positive changes.

In Rhian's words - I work with women who are questioning their drinking habits, by breaking the stigma of having a ‘drinking problem’ and giving them tools and strategies to cut down or quit drinking so they no longer feel ashamed.**

Conversations for women entrepreneurs from around the globe who appreciate travel, a healthy lifestyle and are eager to learn tools and resources to grow their business and thrive in their lives. Join Carol, Katalin and Trish as we share a variety of topics related to just this!

This week Carol, Katalin and Trish talk with our guest Mary Kate Gulick about4 mindset blocks that keep entrepreneurs from putting themselves out there with content creation (and how to overcome them)

Sharing a tip from our guest, Mary Kate

Stop overcomplicating things. When it comes down to it, your marketing as an entrepreneur needs to accomplish two things: 1) FIND YOUR PEOPLE. 2) TALK TO THEM. That’s it. There are a million ways to accomplish this, but it’s not about the tactics. It’s about accomplishing those 2 simple things.

Free masterclass: Expert Status Unlocked! Learn how to create a compelling online brand based on your unique expertise. https://learn.marykategulick.com/expert

Programs offered by Mary Kate

The Content Goldmine Club: 12-week high-touch group program where participants write their business book, get it to #1 on Amazon, and then break down all the content in the book to fuel 12-18 months of their online content. In the end, they’ll have the MOST authority building piece fo content available (a bestselling book), and they’ll never have to ask “what should I post today?” again. Enrolling again in April.

The Expert Brand Building Blocks mini-course: $37 - Nail down all the basics of your unique expert brand by creating a messaging strategy you can use to differentiate yourself and tell your one-of-a-kind story.

Instant Expert Content Clarity Blueprint online course: Self-guided, comprehensive course to build your own lead-generating, expertise sharing content marketing program.

1:1 Real Deal Expert Experience: 8-week coaching experience where I’ll work with you to create your content and marketing strategy, we’ll build your flagship content piece together, and map out your 12-month content calendar, so you’ll be SET for online content and can focus 100% on your business.
