Have you found yourself privately saying, “I don’t get it, I don’t have imposter syndrome, and can’t relate to people who say they have.” Our next guest, Sheila Buswell, can in fact relate to you if you’re a human who connects with that statement. At least she could, until she couldn’t… Once the CEO and Co-Founder of Buswell Biomedical, and veteran of the US Army, got perspective on where the feeling of “not enough” showed up in a specific area of her purview, everything changed. Today, Sheila’s an author, sharing her personal experiences with imposter syndrome alongside a diverse group of other accomplished humans who struggled with self-doubt in her book, Is This Seat For Me? Overcoming Imposter Syndrome in Everyday Life and Business.

For years, Sheila both had success in her career and also endured a tremendous amount of sexism. She left her job in 2019 to found Buswell Biomedical, a company based off the device she invented which is controlled by Machine Learning.

In this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast, we step behind-the-scenes on why the boldest are embracing their inner lazy overachiever to create true balance personally (and) professionally.
Taking a personal dive by addressing feedback received from the BBP listeners who have expressed a desire for more of my professional insights, a new complimentary podcast will be airing soon and I couldn’t be more excited. Podcasting since 2012 before it was “cool” has taught me a thing or two about embracing all your parts, the new videocast style show is my way of sharing one more of mine out loud.
The BBP aka Balance Boldly for Ambitious Women in Business (and a few brave men) is here to stay! The TLO aka The Lazy Overachiever is our new addition, and you’ll want to subscribe to both.
What to expect in today's BBP episode:
-Introducing the new podcast: who are The Lazy Overachievers and why should you care
-Why being “intentionally selfish” is not about being led by your ego
-The importance of honoring your rest as much as your productivity
-BTS about the TLO show and how it will differ from the BBP
-How vulnerability and honesty still matter in the 21st century

This week, the Balance Boldly Podcast and host, Naketa Ren Thigpen has the pleasure of holding sacred space with the multi-threat in the sports industry, female broadcaster for the NFL Network, Las Vegas Raiders, (and) the Tennis Channel, Erin Coscarelli.
Holding nothing back as she opens the curtain and takes you through her experience of deep guttural grief, balancing work highs, robust schedules, and learning to breathe her way into a new space. Erin’s calling herself out and choosing to show up fully with reflection and celebration of life.
As a brilliant, competitive athlete, (and) vivacious woman in a male dominated field, Erin’s journey to arrive at this hour of personal revelation to finally gift herself the right to be vulnerable was no easy feat.
What to expect in today's BBP episode:
Owning your way to do, be, have as your superpower
The dark side of compartmentalizing
Seeing the humanity in those we’ve made into superheroes
The power of keeping it simple with one question
Competing with the old version of yourself vs other people
Untethering from conditioning and scripts that no longer serves you
More about Erin Coscarelli

In this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast sitting with Naketa Ren Thigpen let’s welcome Alyssa Davies, she's a content manager for Zolo and a published author living in Calgary, Alberta. She is the founder of the two-time award-winning Canadian Personal Finance Blog of the Year, Mixed Up Money.
More about Alyssa Davies
As of 2022, she has over 80,000 followers across social media. Through her work, she has been featured in many notable publications, including The Globe and Mail, CNBC, CBC, and more. Alyssa is a freelance writer and enjoys writing about personal finance, homeownership, and more.
As a personal finance lover who has taken leaps and bounds with her own money, I’ve found a way to connect with millennials and break down financial jargon that is frankly, boring, and turn it into something fun. Writing is a great passion of mine, which is why my tens of thousands of readers keep coming back for more "this-isn’t-that-scary-after-all" information. After completing a degree program in journalism, and working in marketing for several years, I’ve found a great place to share my talents. Talents that can come full circle with your needs.

Welcome back to the Balance Boldly Podcast for ambitious women in business and a few brave men, so, usually we have a guest most of the year and this is no exception, except for today's guest is "me", and all of the transparency that I can give to you, in this particular episode in honor to our 11th year anniversary, can you believe it? 11 years full time 100% committed in every single way.
In this episode, I share with you what I had to learn to grow through patients and clients that I worked with that empowered me to shift people in 30 minutes faster than it used to be. I've learned to really gain a higher level of mastery that would have had me work with clients for multiple years to get that same paradigm shift that we can get to literally in less than three months at this point.
So, if you want to break through some next level of yourself stay tuned and keep listening all the way through till my last comment on this podcast.

In the month of Women’s History Month and Social Workers Month where women are to be honored, exalted on this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast I would like to highlight the Benefits of Being Intentionally Selfish.
I'd like to partner with you along your personal development journey to delete old programming and reimagine life after you've moved beyond barely surviving the burnout of work-life and love into one where your old emotional wounds are healed. And you are fully optimized, self-actualized, and thriving.
Across the globe, something came up for quite a few of the people that are in my ecosystem, in all these conversations, and I'm talking about people from Japan to the Middle East, to South Africa, to multiple places in the United States and everything in between. “The concept that it's not okay to be selfish” bear with me down this 20 mins and I’ll share with you what it meant for me.
What you will learn
· What it means to be intentionally selfish.
· That there is a spiritual connection to a lot of the physical diseases that we experience.
· What you need to do in order to come out of your own traumas.
· Why it is so important to go on therapy to move forward.
· It’s not selfish to choose you, to put you in front of other things but to think on yourself.
· If you are a giver, to understand why it’s healthy to give until I'm energetically broke.

The Luminaries Edition of the Balance Boldly Podcast is a dedication to outstanding WOMEN who inspire, influence, and ignite a better tomorrow with the courageous work they implement today!
In this episode of the Luminaries edition seating with Naketa Ren Thigpen, let’s welcome Lekeshia Angelique, she is an Army Veteran, Mom, Coach, Taco Aficionado, and creator of safe spaces to educate folks. The key to change is knowledge and empathy.
And she has deepened into the mission to empower not only black women but every human to have a powerful voice and an equitable seat at any table they desire to be seated at.
There’s a quote that you wrote or were inspired by on Facebook, that sat with me so deeply “The best leadership starts with the best conversations” [Naketa Thigpen 2:58]
What I found in my own journey to leadership was that people just want it to be heard. And that's what made me a lot different was that I listened and then took action instead of taking action without listening. [Lekeshia Angelique 4:41]
More about Lekeshia Angelique
My unique educational background has also led me (unknowingly) to be in the position I am in today, owning my own business doing exactly what I love. I completed a year under the mentorship of the Diversity and Inclusion Executive at Colgate, where I gained valuable lessons and practical, hands-on experience in a large corporate setting.

In this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast seating with Naketa Ren Thigpen let’s welcome Jen O'Donnell, she's a business and mindset coach for team leaders in network marketing and women entrepreneurs that are scaling their businesses, right? Trying to avoid all the mistakes and all the noise that is happening in network marketing, which I know has its own caveats because there is a lot of companies that don't think network marketers actually make money and Jen is proof, living, walking, breathing, vacationing, every month proof that you can in fact do that.
What you will learn
· The importance of mindset over skills
· You can gain momentum but if it is no supported with the right mindset it won’t last.
· Have you ever felt like going backward and that nothing works?
· Did you know that your mind really does control whether you're successful or not?
· You will learn that what you value is how you show up.
More about Jen O'Donnell
After being in the industry for many years & sitting at the feet with some of the industry's pioneers, she learned the importance of mindset over skills. She watched many people go through skills training & a little mindset work to gaining momentum & then going back because nothing in their mind, self-image, or longer-term habits had changed. She watched leaders fall away as quickly as they came, not because they did not know what to do, or their why wasn't strong enough, but because they didn't know how to maintain a strong mindset.

In this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast seating with Naketa Ren Thigpen let’s welcome Jeanie & Ross Coomber, they are amazing human beings, the absolute definition of a power couple as I have defined it. Power couples, although they can be celebrities and high profile, that is not the core characteristic that I define them by.
I describe a power couple as two people with strong what I call IPA that's being influential in their chosen industry or expertise, their philanthropic, not just financially but energetically, they're not afraid to roll up their sleeves and dive in. And let's put this in the parentheses. The final part of that IPA is they have to be strong advocates for causes that impact disproportionately affected groups of people.
That's super important because power couples give back. And they're not just giving from little extras, they're giving from a space of sacrifice and time, energy, and resources, which is super important. They also love each other. They are in it to win with their forever love. They believe not only in the potential of themselves, but the potential that they have together when they unite as a power couple.
What you will learn
This and more on this amazing power couple conversation.

The Luminaries Edition of the Balance Boldly Podcast is a dedication to outstanding WOMEN who inspire, influence, and ignite a better tomorrow with the courageous work they implement today!
Today, Naketa Ren Thigpen welcomes Luminary Kenya Hunt, Author of Girl, Gurl, Grrrl and Fashion Director of Grazia UK. Kenya's career spans working for some of the media world's most influential women’s titles on both sides of the Atlantic from her post-graduate days as an Assistant Editor at the seminal magazine, Jane, to her years as Deputy Editor of ELLE UK. Her writing has appeared in The Guardian, The Evening Standard, Vogue and other publications. In addition, she has made a number of appearances on BBC Woman’s Hour, Sky News and more. An American based in England, she lives south of the river in London with her husband and two sons.
Against the backdrop of this rise in visibility of black women, I was watching us go from milestone to milestone when to win headline-to-headline, magazine cover to magazine cover, but at the same time encountering so many incredibly inspiring women through my work. “I wrote this book as a love letter to us” [Kenya Hunt 3:31]
Key takeaways:
· I wanted this book to really send her (black woman) joy, as if I wanted to send her the joyful aspects of being who we are, as well. Therefore, I mean, I really just hope that women will read it and feel seen and recognized, but just really reflect on the particularity of their own experiences. Kenya Hunt [6:12]
· I wrote about the idea of black girl magic and black excellence in the chapter of my book called bad bitches, and how there is sometimes this perception of black girl magic being twinned with exceptionalism and excellence and that drive to be the headline makers. And there's beauty in that and there's power in that. Kenya Hunt [9:06]
· There is a real power in recognizing the black excellence and the black magic in the every day. So if we did not just wake up in the morning in a global pandemic, manage to get our kids dressed for school, and get them off for the day. That is a moment of excellence and that's, that is worth really celebrating too. Kenya Hunt [9:36]
More about Kenya Hunt
In her new book, Girl Gurl Grrrl, Kenya Hunt (an American who moved to London and has called it home for the last decade) - unpacks what it means to be a black woman and girl. It's a timeless celebration of what it means to be a Black woman in today’s world.
As a collection of essays, the opening essay discusses the variations of the word “girl”, how and why it’s used, and especially in relation to how Black women use this word.
Kenya Hunt also takes an interesting angle as a fashion writer and unpacks the fashion industry as it stands through the eyes of a Black woman, and how being in the fashion industry often means she is the only Black woman in the room; and one of the few select women who can offer hope and wisdom to other women of color in the industry — and writes frankly about the exhaustion, and hope, that this brings.

In this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast with Naketa Ren Thigpen, we meet Brandi Bernoskie, a blogger and the founder of Alchemy+Aim. She opens up about new ventures, growing a business organically and the importance of intentionality.
What I have noticed is that there is sometimes, this lie that we tell ourselves that our meaning, like our meaning as individuals comes from doing, and that is not the truth. So, you can get absolutely lost in that space if you keep buying into that and think that your meeting your value, your worth is in the doing, is in the achievement, and in all of those details, the awards and accolades and milestones and goals you've reached. But we are so much more than that. – Brandi Bernoskie [14.02]
What you will learn

· How she creates a buffer period after an intense work period.
· How life's meaning does not always come from action, awards, and milestones.
· The way we often do things to project a favorable appearance.
· Not everything needs to be captured by our phone for it to be captured in our heart.
· Why she took the bold decision to eventually move away from blogging.
· The concept of "pivoting."
· How it doesn't hurt to be Jack of all trades if it gets you closer to your purpose.
· The Sunday ritual that helps Brandi to be more intentional.
More about Brandi Bernoskie
Brandi Bernoskie began her career as a blogger, teaching herself the ins and outs of WordPress before her friends began to notice and asked her for help with their own websites. When she found herself hiring her first assistant after freelancing for a while, she knew she had something special. She founded Alchemy+Aim in 2013, naming it for the transformation that takes place when the science and technology of web development meets the human aspect of what those websites were designed for.

One thing I –Naketa Thigpen- am sure about is that the current season we’re in is leaving no one unaffected whether in our relationships, businesses or other sides of our lives.
In today’s episode I want to find out what it would be like if, instead of trying to shift and change things during this intense time of COVID19, we would manage to find the magic that it takes to guide us, increase confidence and impact?
To help me elude this question who better than Jenny Fenig? Former successful public relations executive and now award winning transformational coach and consultant who helps people using their intuition to take transitions and new directions when they need it.
Jenny tells us how the loss of her young sister helped her, even years later, to find out how changing the form of a relationship can bring us peace. Sharing a conversation about the magical way this pandemic is bringing us closer to our family, children and ourselves.
I asked her to reveal how she got from a survivor stage to a stage of overflow that allows her to love, guide and be a leader for her family and community. And as the show is all about balance, she’ll give us clues on how to balance the desire to help people with our commitment to care for ourselves.
Jenny will confirm that there is power in the pause and that living a mindful life is helping us keeping a look at our own patterns in an uplifting way.
Hit play now to start finding the magic!

During a pause between The Retirement Years on Profit Boss® Radio episodes, host, founder of Hendershott Wealth Management, a leading financial advisory and wealth coaching firm for women, Hilary Hendershot joins me, Naketa R. Thigpen on the Balance Boldly Podcast for Ambitious Women In Business (and a few brave men)
When Hilary isn’t offering her guests inspiration and actionable advice through her podcast, she’s creating cash flow and researching better investment opportunities for her clients.
I was extremely thrilled and honored that Hilary carved out time to share her personal journey from over $600,000 in debt to where she is now as a multi-millionaire business owner and investor. Talk about a bootstrap on steroids! Hilary’s tenacity and focus to make sure other women didn’t have to endure what she did to get where she is, in short, is nothing less than impressive.
Heartfelt and Gutsy is how I’d describe this woman who refused wallowing on her way to wealthy.
More about Hilary
Hilary Hendershott’s mission is to motivate women and their loved ones to be financially empowered, and to thrive. Her wealth coaching programs have enabled participants to finally take control of their money, learn healthy financial habits, and grow their individual wealth by millions of dollars.
In addition to being the host of The Retirement Years on Profit Boss® Radio, she’s also a TEDx speaker, and has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, NBC, ABC, FOX, DailyWorth, Forbes, and Investopedia.
Hilary was recognized as a Top 40 Under 40 Entrepreneur in Silicon Valley and in 2018, Investopedia named her one of the Top 100 Most Influential Advisors in the US. Hilary has an MBA from Santa Clara University, and is a Certified Financial Planner.

On this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast with Naketa R. Thigpen, there was an urgency to speak to someone with a mind to not only do good work, but someone who does that work with both high integrity and a full sense of self.
All too often, great people with good intentions, show up to their work with only half of themselves. Often feeling like they need to hide portions of themselves for fear that the clients or even teammates simply wouldn’t understand them. Perhaps they’d even judge them for being so enthusiastic, optimistic, or upbeat.
Not this guest! Our featured expert this week is Kirsten M. Toler, a Tax Senior Manager with Friedman LLP. She has over 25 years of combined experience effectively balanced between public accounting and private industry, focused mainly on client service and tax. Kirsten is also energetic, informative, and true to her core.
Kirsten takes us inside her journey with a look at a unique professional career path that led her to incorporate her passion for understanding and strengthening emotional intelligence. Her intention to bring her full self to work and avoid exhausting herself with over compartmentalizing her gifts, helped to decrease the stress that goes with the joys of mothering teenagers and being a doting wife on top of her full investment in clients at work.
Tune in and hear how to stay true to your core and maximize your potential!
More about Kirsten
Kirsten has a diverse background and is known by some as a Rockstar CPA and Strategist. When she’s not spending her time working with clients, loving on her husband, children, and family; Kirsten makes room to speak at the Girl’s Career Institute, as a Mentor on the Gail Bierbaum Rider Women’s Leadership Council, and Subject Matter Expert Panelist for UBS ‘Monetizing Your Life’s Work’ program.

We are in season 17 of the Balance Boldly Podcast for Ambitious Women In Business (and a few brave men) and it’s, 2020 the beginning of a fresh new decade. Do you hear me? So, if you are sitting in a place where you felt like there was the woulda-coulda-shoulda anvil hanging over your head because you get didn't get something done yesterday or last year, it's okay, breathe easy. Today is about how to celebrate small wins!
Most of the high-achievers I speak with are feeling exactly like you, like there’s not enough time, the new year’s already flying so fast and there’s so much to do. It’s hard to turn it off, but you can turn it down. Give yourself a little permission to pause and appreciate what you did get finished or at least framed out.
On this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast with Naketa R. Thigpen sits down with Christina Gatteri, Certified Financial Planner and Advisor who loves spending time outdoors hiking, gardening, or at the beach when she’s not helping people plan smart for what they want most.
Tune in and hear how Christina broke free from the traditional ways of the corporate machine and stepped out into a brave new adventure to be more human in how she helps!
This podcast episode is chock full of work/life nuggets that can help you in your personal and professional life, if you’re willing….
More about Christina,
For years, Christina and her partners worked under a terrible broker-dealer. After some tiring years, they decided they wanted to break out of the corporate machine as they disagreed with the policies and prices. By breaking out, they were able to do business with integrity and within the purview of their own system. Christina and her partners’ main goal is to put the ‘human’ back into financial planning. Since then, Christina is living the life she always wanted while still being true to herself and her clients. She is able to do a job she loves while still spending time with the people she loves.
Christina’s passion is helping young families realize financial success – regardless of the unexpected turns, their life may take.

On this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast with Naketa R. Thigpen, the reformed politician Rebecca Thompson breaks barriers and walls as she walks us through her imperfectly powerful transformation.
Rebecca Thompson - At just 14 years old, Rebecca served as an intern for a county commissioner in her hometown of Detroit and that is where she caught the politics bug. Rebecca is a graduate of the Women’s Campaign School at Yale, EMILY’S List, VoteRunLead and numerous other leadership programs. She has appeared in the Washington Post, New York Times, Essence Magazine, and was recently named one of the American Association of Political Consultants’ Top 40 Under 40 award recipients.
Rebecca highlights how politicians are taught to be perfect which looks great when for her portfolio, public facing and public speaking optics but can do more harm than good when you don’t realize how much you’re struggling behind the walls you’ve built. Holding nothing back, Rebecca tears in to her past as a control freak in her career, intimate partner relationships, and friendships which kept her from showing up as her full self.

On this latest episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast for Ambitious Women In Business (and a few brave men), we take a deep dive into Season 16: The Freedom and Fury of Balancing Love and Career.
Our season themes have layers, and go beyond whatever box your mind might try to put the connected contact in, which is why we have so much fun developing them!
The featured expert, Patricia Romboletti, Author, TedX Speaker, and Career Coach sits down with Naketa R. Thigpen and puts the proverbial bullets on the table. Patricia opened up and told us all how bulletproofing your career adds balance to your life!
Patricia's corporate background and experience sitting on both sides of the table, shaped not only her life, but how she decided to show up in the world after renegotiating with her future-self on what her existence and impact would be moving forward.
More about Patricia Romboletti:
Pat Romboletti is the founder of the Bulletproof Your Career Methodology, a 4-phase coaching system for senior executive leaders, and the author of Bulletproof Your Career: Secure Your Financial Future and do Fulfilling Work on Your Own Terms...for LIFE”
After 18-years’ experience as a retained executive recruiter, Pat switched sides, and exposes the secrets behind the hiring curtain, using her Bulletproof Career Coaching methodology to gives her clients an unfair advantage against a rigged and frustrating hiring system. Her four-phase system - Clarify, Eliminate, Prioritize, Accelerate, gives her clients a bulletproof mindset, a shortened search and a lifetime of financial security, and personal ownership of their career and destiny.
Patricia’s TEDx talk was a wake-up call for corporate executives, urging them to stop living in complacency and denial and to disrupt themselves before they are disrupted. Her advice — “think and act like a gigger.”

Sheri Kurdakul is a business owner, professional consultant, and the founder and CEO of VictimsVoice. Driven by the desire to give back and honed by over 5 years of working with startups, she specializes in coming up with effective solutions to complicated issues. She has spoken and written at length about her experiences and areas of expertise. She has used her learnings from 29 years of domestic abuse to become a figurehead in helping victims - whether male or female - to take control of their situation, rebuild their lives, and hold their abusers accountable.
Sheri joins me today to share the story of how VictimsVoice came to be. She discusses how her daughter turned an unpleasant experience at school into an opportunity to learn new skills and make a major difference in the lives of abuse victims. She explains the challenges of dealing with domestic abuse, why it is a pertinent issue for both men and women, and how culture affects the way we handle such problems. She also shares her own experiences with domestic abuse and why enabling victims to take control of their healing process means so much.
“When you are a victim of domestic violence, that’s something very, very personal.” - Sheri Kurdakul
This Week on the Balance Boldly for Ambitious Women In Business Podcast:
●How and why Sheri’s 10-year-old daughter developed an anti-bullying app
●The “big miss” or critical mistake of many anti-bullying apps
●How the personal nature of domestic abuse makes it hard for us to speak out when we’re on the receiving end
●Why it’s important to give domestic abuse survivors the power to talk about their experiences if and when they want to
●The difference between our culture and other cultures in handling such sensitive issues
●Her personal experiences with domestic abuse
●How finding an old journal that she tucked away showed her just how different she is now from the person she used to be
●Why abuse is not just a female problem
A Little Permission to Pause:
●I stick my hands in the dirt and garden like crazy. I love to garden and I wanted to learn the science behind it. In the winter, you’ll find me sitting somewhere with a glass of wine, reading.

Whitney Nicely is the Queen of real estate investing in East Tennessee. She is an expert property investor, speaker, and real estate coach whose career initially began while living on her parent’s couch and working a desk job where she made $24,000 annually. Deciding there were better options and possibilities waiting for her, she decided to take a leap of faith and begin her real estate journey.
In less than three years, she built her real estate empire to an impressive $2.5-Million in assets - acquiring 19 homes, 19 apartment units, and seven lots of land. Today, she coaches hundreds of women how to use no money down, no credit, and no banks to finance real estate deals through her REI Rock Star and First Deal Done Fast programs.
Whitney joins me today to share how creating an alter-ego can help you manage your mindset, improve your mental health, and combat burnout and impostor syndrome. She explains how she handled negative comments and lack of support from her significant other while beginning her journey into real estate and entrepreneurship and how she found her “custom fit balance” to building her business while maintaining a long-distance marriage. She also explains why she believes the key to success in life and business is to maintain strong mental health.

According to Google, a white lie is “a harmless or trivial lie; especially one told to avoid hurting someone's feelings.” There are many reasons why we justify lying to others and ourselves. Sometimes we think that doing this will avoid awkward confrontations. Many times, we’re just not ready to handle the truth.
Today, I’m going to share my health problem -- a rare autoimmune condition that I like to refer to as my “superpower” -- that led me to justify lying to my husband and myself. I’m going to share the possible reasons why you justify lying, how justifying lies apply in business, and how to break free from this compulsion.

There is a hot and trending issue about the sexual assault case filed against the producer, director, and Miramax co-founder Harvey Weinstein. Wherever you are in the world, sexual assault is a grave offense that is mostly left unreported, especially if the aggressor is a very powerful and influential person. Sexist language and victim blaming are some of the unfortunate natural responses of the society that make most victims withdraw and suffer in silence rather than endure more shame and criticism by others.
Today, I’m going to share the truth about the shamelessness of power plays, which is a means to satisfy people’s cravings for power. I also explain how the shame and powerlessness of the victims affect their balance and relationships - both personal and professional - and how the support of others for the victims or potential victims play a significant role in helping stop or prevent this abominable misconduct.

When on a plane, it is a rule of thumb that you first put on your oxygen mask before helping others with theirs. By prioritizing your own need for oxygen, only then will you have the ability and the strength to help someone else. This is the same principle that we’ve been discussing all throughout Selfish September to help you understand the redefinition of selfish, become aware of what avoiding bad confrontation can do for you, and knowing how you can protect your “me time.”
On today’s episode, I share why you should be your unapologetic self, and how to use your passion in finding your purpose. I also explain how you can dig to find your ultimate purpose and eventually do better and be better in your relationships and your business.

Many people complain of burnout because of busyness but refuse to make time and prioritize their “me time.” Allotting exclusive time to yourself allows you to recharge and refuel so you can be the best you in your life, your relationships, and your business. To be able to do this consistently and effectively, you have to be strategic and deliberate when establishing good boundaries to protect your me time.
On today’s episode, I’m going to share the different ways to create boundaries so you can do and accomplish the things that matter the most. I also discuss a system you can use to gauge any diversion and differentiate distractions from urgencies. Since you can’t change anyone but you, I also share specific practices you can try to protect your “me time” at work and at home.

Stress plays a major role in everyone’s life. We all experience high levels of stress at various points in our lives, but how we deal with it can be critical to our health. Stress has been proven to lead to - or worsen - a number of health conditions, including high blood pressure, heart disease, depression, and even Alzheimer’s disease. That’s why many doctors warn people to avoid stress-inducing activities.
It’s the concept of avoiding by confronting.
On today’s episode, I’m sharing this concept with you and how you can avoid stress-induced illnesses by identifying and confronting the triggers of your stress. I’ll also share how confronting burden and competition can play a role in your stress levels and what you can do to avoid them.

There is a tendency for people to assume things about us by the way we look, and they try to put us into a little box, but there is always so much more to the picture. As with the case with my guest expert today, The Puppy Mama! We give you the most creative ways to push through those assumptions and become a healthier, more fulfilled version of yourself by breaking those boxes and expectations boldly.

Tune in now and learn how to close #TheLeadershipGap
Do you find yourself feeling one sided while among a certain group of people that only know you as the person you used to be? Now that we have added an extra layer of success to ourselves, we have to break those expectations and start seeing things from different perspectives.
The shame that comes right before the success of many entrepreneurs is embedded within our perception of how we view the complexities of our lives while we work towards our goals. Although we understand that success isn’t over night and there will be a curvy and often steep road others view our endeavors as less socially acceptable. For example, when someone asks you about your business venture, the first thing they ask is, “How much money have you made?” Versus, the socially acceptable action, attending college, people ask, “How is school going?” They never ask about your failures like they do with entrepreneurs. With perspective we find that both situations offer valuable learning experiences, but I have to tell you with my 12+ years in college, I learned way more in the first 6-8 months of being an entrepreneur.
Joe Pardo joins us today as we talk about adding perspective to his family business, his past life experiences and going and being Super Joe without shame.

In this final episode of season 1 of Commitment Challenges, we take a look at the recipe you need to be committed to the most important part of you, including your inner goddess and higher spiritual self. More and more people are struggling with what it means to long for something and extremely uncomfortable with what others perceive as their awkwardness. Today, I say, get a little awkward! Our featured expert, Sacred Walker and I discuss what it means to state your desires and be unapologetic about getting what you want?

Are you tired of not pulling the trigger on things you have planned for so long? A paraphrased recommendation from Tony Robbins is to learn the importance of asking quality questions that lead to actionable answers. Instead of focusing all of our energy on the problems we are having, we are better off redirecting our energy towards the solutions. Join us as we discuss inviting change into our lives and what it means for the people who we are connected too.
More often than not, we do not ask ourselves the right questions because we are afraid that the answer will mean we have to commit our time and effort to getting things done. Today we are taking a deep swift dive into the possible reasons you’re afraid to open the door to the change (or change agents) you need. Let’s avoid questions that lead to answers that are rooted in fear and ultimately set you up for failure and ask, the hidden questions that unlock the path to our success. What are those changes that you're going to have to make in order to make room for the success that you want? Who are you giving the keys to your future and happiness?
Thank you for listening.
