    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this special crossover episode, I’m sharing something close to my heart — <em>Empathy in Action: Expanding Our Capacity to Care</em> — from my new podcast experiment, <em>Brave Moves.</em></p><p>Yes, you heard that right... This is my newest project, and I’m inviting you to come along for the experiment. <em>Brave Moves</em> is my journey of starting, launching, and growing a podcast from scratch, using the same tools, systems, and strategies I teach my clients every day. My goal is to show you behind the scenes what it looks like to take action before you feel “ready.”</p><p>In this episode, we’re diving into empathy, what it really means, why it matters, and how it changes the way we lead, love, and show up in the world.</p><p>I share a recent experience that made me reflect on how quickly we are to judge others and how assumptions can limit our ability to care. When I saw a post about helping people who lost their SNAP benefits, and the comments that followed, it hit me how much our empathy has to stretch, not just for those who “look” like us, but for those whose stories we don’t fully know.</p><p>This episode will remind you that empathy isn’t weakness, it’s a strength. It’s leadership. And it’s the heartbeat of confidence and connection.</p><p><b>You’ll learn:</b><br/> • Why empathy is a leadership superpower (not a soft skill)<br/> • How assumptions and comparisons shrink our compassion<br/> • Simple, grounded ways to practice empathy every day<br/> • How to take small, brave actions that expand your capacity to care</p><p>Empathy doesn’t mean doing everything.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Jay Williams, an international speaker, high-performance coach, and expert marketing coach, delves into the intricacies of personal growth, confidence, and the transformative power of perspective and action.</p><p>Jay&apos;s journey to becoming a high-performance coach is a testament to the power of self-discovery and the relentless pursuit of excellence. Throughout our conversation, he shared personal experiences highlighting the importance of identifying and transforming unconscious blocks—those hidden barriers that often hold us back from achieving our full potential.</p><p>One of the most profound insights from our discussion was the role of courage in building confidence. Jay emphasized that it&apos;s not just about feeling confident but about taking consistent action that leads to the accumulation of new evidence of our capabilities. This, in turn, forges new neural pathways in the mind, reinforcing our self-belief and trust in our abilities.</p><p><b>Marketing Realities and the Ideal Client Dilemma</b></p><p>In a candid moment, Jay expressed his frustration with the marketing industry&apos;s portrayal of the &quot;magic bullet&quot; solution. He debunked the myth of the ideal client avatar, acknowledging that businesses often attract diverse clients, not all of whom fit the perfect mold envisioned on paper.</p><p><b>Patience and Strategy in Business Growth</b></p><p>Jay, an achiever at heart, admitted to his own impatience but underscored the importance of giving strategies time to work. He outlined three critical questions he asks himself when evaluating any new decision or strategy:</p><ol><li>Is this right for me?</li><li>Is this the right time for my business?</li><li>Can I commit to this strategy for at least 12 months?</li></ol><p>These questions guide him in making informed choices that align with his strengths and the stage of his business.</p><p><b>Leadership and Integrity in Virtual Summits</b></p><p>Jay also touched on the importance of leadership in organizing successful virtual summits. He learned from past mistakes and now takes a more assertive approach in selecting speakers who share his values and are committed to promoting the event.</p><p><b>The Role of AI in Business</b></p><p>As we discussed artificial intelligence (AI), Jay cautioned against relying on AI without a solid foundation in marketing fundamentals. He shared his &quot;spear model&quot; and how he uses AI to streamline the creation of virtual summits, helping his clients expedite the process.</p><p>For those interested in learning more from Jay, he offers a free masterclass on virtual summits and runs a Facebook group for entrepreneurs. </p><p><a href='http://jaywilliamscoaching.com'>http://jaywilliamscoaching.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

He debunked the myth of the ideal client avatar, acknowledging that businesses often attract diverse clients, not all of whom fit the perfect mold envisioned on paper.</p><p><b>Patience and Strategy in Business Growth</b></p><p>Jay, an achiever at heart, admitted to his own impatience but underscored the importance of giving strategies time to work. He outlined three critical questions he asks himself when evaluating any new decision or strategy:</p><ol><li>Is this right for me?</li><li>Is this the right time for my business?</li><li>Can I commit to this strategy for at least 12 months?</li></ol><p>These questions guide him in making informed choices that align with his strengths and the stage of his business.</p><p><b>Leadership and Integrity in Virtual Summits</b></p><p>Jay also touched on the importance of leadership in organizing successful virtual summits. He learned from past mistakes and now takes a more assertive approach in selecting speakers who share his values and are committed to promoting the event.</p><p><b>The Role of AI in Business</b></p><p>As we discussed artificial intelligence (AI), Jay cautioned against relying on AI without a solid foundation in marketing fundamentals. He shared his &quot;spear model&quot; and how he uses AI to streamline the creation of virtual summits, helping his clients expedite the process.</p><p>For those interested in learning more from Jay, he offers a free masterclass on virtual summits and runs a Facebook group for entrepreneurs. </p><p><a href='http://jaywilliamscoaching.com'>http://jaywilliamscoaching.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this podcast episode, Julie interviews Mark Cheverton, a former teacher and author of 27 action-adventure novels for kids. Mark discusses his latest book, &quot;Facing the Beast Within,&quot; which addresses anxiety in children.

His son&apos;s experience inspired Mark&apos;s transition from teaching to writing with cyberbullying, leading him to self-publish a book set in the Minecraft universe.

Mark emphasizes the importance of taking risks and the therapeutic power of writing, both for himself and as a tool to help children cope with their struggles.<br/><br/>Mark&apos;s journey is not just about crafting thrilling tales; it&apos;s about touching lives.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of &quot;Casa de Confidence,&quot; host Julie interviews Stephanie, the founder of the Aziza Project. Stephanie shares her long struggle with gynecologic pain, which went undiagnosed by numerous medical practitioners until she met Dr. Corey Babb at the Haven Center. Stephanie&apos;s conditions included endometriosis, adenomyosis, and endosalpingiosis, which caused significant pain and affected her life and ability to work.<br/><br/> After successful treatment, she founded the Aziza Project to provide other women with access to quality medical care, funding for travel and procedures, and support. They discuss the project&apos;s goals, including raising $20,000 for 2024 to sponsor treatments for conditions like vaginismus and to support women&apos;s mental and physical health.<br/><br/> Stephanie emphasizes the importance of advocating for one&apos;s health and the need for more gynecological specialists. The Aziza Project seeks donations and business sponsorships to help more patients and plans to offer scholarships for medical students specializing in complex gynecological care.<br/><b><br/>Understanding Gynecologic Conditions<br/></b>During our conversation, Stephanie educated us on the various conditions she faced, including endometriosis, adenomyosis, and endosalpingiosis. Each condition brought its own set of challenges and pain, impacting her ability to contribute to her family&apos;s finances and overall quality of life.</p><p><b><br/>The Path to Diagnosis and Treatment<br/></b>Stephanie&apos;s path to diagnosis was fraught with missteps and frustration. It wasn&apos;t until she found an endometriosis excision specialist that she began to see a light at the end of the tunnel. The specialist&apos;s approach to excising endometriosis by the roots offered her an 80% chance of non-recurrence, a significant improvement over previous treatments.</p><p><b><br/>The Aziza Project&apos;s Vision and Impact<br/></b>The Aziza Project isn&apos;t just about financial assistance; it&apos;s about creating a ripple effect of education, advocacy, and support. Stephanie envisions a future where every woman has access to a vaginal specialist within a reasonable distance, where no one has to travel across the country for proper care.</p><p><b>A Call to Action: How You Can Help<br/>Donations and Sponsorships<br/></b>If you&apos;re moved by Stephanie&apos;s mission and want to contribute, the Aziza Project&apos;s website features a donate button for easy contributions.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>My journey began with a common misconception: multitasking as the pinnacle of productivity. Like many of you, I wore my ability to juggle tasks as a badge of honor. My days were a blur of back-to-back meetings, my inbox a never-ending stream of demands. I felt busy, indispensable even. But beneath that veneer of constant activity, I was struggling. Grant writing became a herculean task, and picking up new skills felt like wading through molasses. I was always tired, perpetually exhausted, and my concentration was in tatters. <br/><br/>It wasn&apos;t until I delved deeper into the science of productivity that I understood the toll my lifestyle was taking on my mental well-being. The truth hit hard: our brains are not wired for multitasking. Each time I switched between tasks, I wasn&apos;t being efficient—I was depleting my prefrontal cortex, the very engine of concentration and decision-making.<br/><br/>Breaking free from the multitasking trap wasn&apos;t easy. It required a fundamental shift in how I approached my work and life. I had to embrace mono-tasking, the art of dedicating my focus to one task at a time. The transition was challenging, but the clarity and efficiency that came with it were undeniable.<br/><br/>I encourage you to take these insights and apply them to your own lives. Experiment with mono-tasking, embrace time blocking, and give the Pomodoro method a try. The path to productivity is personal and ever-evolving, but with intention and the right techniques, we can all achieve a more focused, fulfilling, and productive life.<br/><br/>Get my BEST Resources here<br/><br/><a href='https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/quicklinks'>https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/quicklinks</a><br/><br/>Find me on the Socials <br/><a href=' https://www.instagram.com/julie_deluccacollins/'><br/>https://www.instagram.com/julie_deluccacollins/</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/goconfidentlyjulie/'>https://www.linkedin.com/in/goconfidentlyjulie/</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.facebook.com/jdelucca'>https://www.facebook.com/jdelucca</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@juliedcbusinesscoach'>https://www.tiktok.com/@juliedcbusinesscoach</a><br/><br/><br/><br/>Get my book here: <a href='https://casadeconfidence.com/book'>https://casadeconfidence.com/book</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

I&apos;ve just wrapped up an episode that&apos;s particularly close to my heart, and I&apos;m buzzing with excitement to share some insights with you that I believe could transform the way you approach your goals for 2024.<br/><br/>👣 Perseverance is Key. Remember that time I told you about my Camino de Santiago pilgrimage? Well, in this episode, I faced a real test of perseverance, especially when the path got tough, and my pack felt like a ton of bricks. But guess what? I kept going, and that&apos;s a powerful lesson I want to pass on to you. When the going gets tough, just put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward.<br/><br/>🌿 Beauty in the Present: I also discuss the importance of soaking in the beauty around us. On my journey, I was captivated by a magical forest and trails lined with red poppies. It was a reminder to not just focus on the end goal but to cherish the present moment. I want you to find your &quot;red poppies&quot; and let them fuel your drive.<br/><br/>🤝 Community Support: And let&apos;s talk about the power of community. I couldn&apos;t have made it without the support of my husband, Dan, and the friends we met along the way. I encourage you to lean on your community, too—whether it&apos;s friends, family, or our amazing Confidence Podcast family. We&apos;re here to lift each other up!<br/><br/>🔄 It&apos;s Okay to Restart Feeling like you&apos;ve fallen off track? No worries! It&apos;s perfectly okay to take a breather and start again. Your goals aren&apos;t going anywhere, and sometimes, a short pause can give you the energy to push through.<br/><br/>I&apos;m inviting you to join me in this conversation. Share your goals and your struggles, and let&apos;s support each other.

    <description><![CDATA[<h1>I&apos;m thrilled to share with you a recent conversation I had with Meredith Rhodes, a business advisor at Thryv . </h1><p><br/>I first met Meredith through networking, a practice I cannot emphasize enough for its role in business growth. Meredith works at Thryv, a software company that has evolved from the Nynex Yellow Pages in the 90s to a top-rated company with operations in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. It&apos;s been fascinating to witness the transformation of Thrive and Meredith&apos;s journey with the company.</p><p><b>The Evolution of Thryv  and Meredith&apos;s Journey<br/></b>Meredith shared that while Thryv &apos;s philosophy of helping small businesses has remained constant, the tools and processes have become more complex. This evolution mirrors the journey of many entrepreneurs, which can often feel like a lonely road without a clear path. However, Meredith&apos;s work at Thryv  is creating a direct path for people to advertise and put themselves out there.</p><p><b>The Power of Networking: BNI (Business Networking International)<br/></b><br/></p><p>We delved into the topic of networking, specifically BNI. Meredith shared her experience with BNI, which she discovered in August 2021. </p><p>We discussed the importance of having a presence beyond social media.</p><p>We also touched on the topic of financing for coaches and consultants. Thrive partners with WiseTech to provide financing options, allowing clients to get paid upfront while Thrive handles the collection process. This can give businesses a competitive advantage over others that don&apos;t provide this option.</p><p>Understanding your business&apos;s numbers and cash flow is crucial. I mentioned the &quot;ostrich effect,&quot; where business owners avoid looking at their financials, which can be detrimental. Using software like v can help businesses track their cash flow and make informed decisions.</p><p>Meredith admitted that she often works long hours but prioritizes a daily workout to counterbalance her sedentary work on Zoom.</p><p><b>The Importance of Networking and Communication<br/></b>We agreed that networking and communicating what you do is more important than having a website in the early stages of starting a business. A website alone is not the answer and should be part of a larger marketing strategy.</p><p><b>Connecting with Meredith<br/></b>Meredith takes the time to analyze the needs of potential clients and determine if Thrive&apos;s products or services are a good fit. She provides her contact information through her digital business card, allowing people to schedule a meeting using Thrive&apos;s software scheduler.</p><p>I admire Meredith&apos;s dedication to supporting individuals and value her as a trusted partner. I look forward to connecting people with her and reminding everyone to go confidently in the direction of their dreams.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>I&apos;m thrilled to share with you a recent conversation I had with Meredith Rhodes, a business advisor at Thryv . </h1><p><br/>I first met Meredith through networking, a practice I cannot emphasize enough for its role in business growth. Meredith works at Thryv, a software company that has evolved from the Nynex Yellow Pages in the 90s to a top-rated company with operations in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. It&apos;s been fascinating to witness the transformation of Thrive and Meredith&apos;s journey with the company.</p><p><b>The Evolution of Thryv  and Meredith&apos;s Journey<br/></b>Meredith shared that while Thryv &apos;s philosophy of helping small businesses has remained constant, the tools and processes have become more complex. This evolution mirrors the journey of many entrepreneurs, which can often feel like a lonely road without a clear path. However, Meredith&apos;s work at Thryv  is creating a direct path for people to advertise and put themselves out there.</p><p><b>The Power of Networking: BNI (Business Networking International)<br/></b><br/></p><p>We delved into the topic of networking, specifically BNI. Meredith shared her experience with BNI, which she discovered in August 2021. </p><p>We discussed the importance of having a presence beyond social media.</p><p>We also touched on the topic of financing for coaches and consultants. Thrive partners with WiseTech to provide financing options, allowing clients to get paid upfront while Thrive handles the collection process. This can give businesses a competitive advantage over others that don&apos;t provide this option.</p><p>Understanding your business&apos;s numbers and cash flow is crucial. I mentioned the &quot;ostrich effect,&quot; where business owners avoid looking at their financials, which can be detrimental. Using software like v can help businesses track their cash flow and make informed decisions.</p><p>Meredith admitted that she often works long hours but prioritizes a daily workout to counterbalance her sedentary work on Zoom.</p><p><b>The Importance of Networking and Communication<br/></b>We agreed that networking and communicating what you do is more important than having a website in the early stages of starting a business. A website alone is not the answer and should be part of a larger marketing strategy.</p><p><b>Connecting with Meredith<br/></b>Meredith takes the time to analyze the needs of potential clients and determine if Thrive&apos;s products or services are a good fit. She provides her contact information through her digital business card, allowing people to schedule a meeting using Thrive&apos;s software scheduler.</p><p>I admire Meredith&apos;s dedication to supporting individuals and value her as a trusted partner. I look forward to connecting people with her and reminding everyone to go confidently in the direction of their dreams.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In the latest Casa De Confidence Podcast episode, Julie welcomes the incredible Holly Frances to share her remarkable story of resilience, recovery, and reinvention. Holly&apos;s journey, chronicled in her book &quot;Life Support,&quot; is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the power of turning adversity into an opportunity for growth.</p><p><b>Holly Frances: A Brief Introduction<br/></b>Holly Frances, author of &quot;Life Support,&quot; is not only a mom in a blended family of five but also the force behind &quot;Holly After GBS&quot; on social media. Her inspiring recovery videos have touched the lives of millions worldwide. While she works in Human Resources, her true passion lies in Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) advocacy and fitness.</p><p><b><br/>A Sudden Turn of Events<br/></b>The podcast delves into the pivotal moment when, just weeks after giving birth, Holly went from a healthy 26-year-old new mom to being paralyzed and on life support in less than 72 hours. The culprit: Guillain-Barre Syndrome, a rare autoimmune disorder. This diagnosis left her trapped in her own body, unable to move, speak, or even hold her newborn daughter.</p><p><b><br/>&quot;Life Support&quot;: A Memoir and Resource Guide<br/></b>Holly&apos;s book, &quot;Life Support,&quot; not only narrates her personal struggle but also serves as a resource guide for those facing similar challenges. The memoir takes the audience through her 126 days in the hospital, highlighting the despair, hopelessness, and pain of recovery. Despite the dire circumstances, Holly found purpose in her journey, emerging stronger and more determined than ever.</p><p><b><br/>Rebuilding After a Decade-Long Marriage Ends<br/></b>A few years post-recovery, life threw another curveball at Holly as her decade-long marriage came to an end. Rather than succumbing to the challenges, she embraced them as opportunities for personal growth. Holly embarked on a journey of self-discovery, reclaiming her life with newfound strength.</p><p><b><br/>Fitness: A Path to Empowerment<br/></b>Refusing to be defined by her past struggles, Holly obtained a gym membership and fell in love with fitness. Her determination to overcome past weaknesses, including using a wheelchair and walker, fueled her journey to become a certified fitness trainer. Through grit and perseverance, she not only conquered her personal fitness goals but also found a calling in helping others discover their strength.</p><p><b><br/>The Podcast Episode: A Journey of Strength, Determination, and Hope<br/></b>In the podcast episode, Holly opens up about her experiences, sharing insights into the darkest moments of her recovery and the subsequent triumphs. Listeners will be inspired by her resilience and motivated to face their own challenges head-on. The conversation with [Your Name] is a poignant exploration of life&apos;s unpredictability and the transformative power of a positive mindset.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Janet M. Taylor is the founder of Totally Organized LLC.  In April 2018, Janet appeared on the Rachael Ray Show, where she was crowned the Clutter Free Queen. Janet has also appeared on HGTV’s Mission Organization.  She has also been a featured speaker for IKEA and the Philadelphia Home Show. In 2020, Janet’s organized home was featured in Apartment Therapy. In our recent conversation, we delved into the world of organization, discussing everything from personal habits to our emotional attachment to objects.<br/><br/>From Layoff to Launching a Business<br/>Janet&apos;s journey into the world of organization began when she was laid off from a job she loved. Rather than seeing this as a setback, she used it as an opportunity to launch her own business, Totally Organized LLC. Her passion for organization stems from her childhood experiences and witnessing the impact of disorganization on people&apos;s lives.<br/><br/>The Struggle with Organization<br/>I can personally relate to Janet&apos;s passion for organization. Like many, I&apos;ve had my own struggles with staying organized. I&apos;ve found that incorporating small habits into my daily routine has been instrumental in maintaining a sense of order. However, it&apos;s not always easy. I remember feeling embarrassed when a friend visited and saw the state of my home. Janet reassured me that people are often not as judgmental as we think and that relationships are more important than the state of our homes.<br/><br/>Other major things we discussed include: <br/><br/>Overcoming the Shame of Disorganization<br/>Practical Solutions to Organizational Challenges<br/>The Importance of Organizing Belongings and Time<br/>Emotional Attachment to Objects<br/>Taking Small Steps Towards Organization<br/><br/>Janet emphasized the importance of taking small steps towards organization, such as tackling a junk drawer or a corner of a room. She encourages listeners to donate, recycle, or let go of items that no longer serve them, knowing that it&apos;s a process and not an overnight transformation.<br/><br/>In conclusion, my conversation with Janet M. Taylor deeply delved into the organization world. It was a reminder that organization is not just about decluttering our spaces but also about understanding our habits, managing our time, and dealing with our emotional attachments to objects.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>WELCOME TO 200 Episodes! <br/><br/>This week, I enjoyed interviewing Dr. Leticia Wright, a media, business crowdfunding, and philanthropy expert. <br/><br/>Dr. Wright shared her journey of teaching people how to monetize their shows and raise business funds through crowdfunding. She emphasized that crowdfunding can be a game-changer, especially for women and people of color who often face challenges in accessing venture capital.<br/><br/>Dr. Wright&apos;s personal experience as a physician and her success in starting a TV show using crowdfunding is a testament to the power of crowdfunding in leveling the playing field. She highlighted the importance of crowdfunding in providing opportunities for underrepresented entrepreneurs to showcase their ideas and receive support.<br/><br/>Dr. Wright has run multiple crowdfunding campaigns and shared her experiences and insights. She emphasized the importance of testing ideas and generating income before taking on debt. According to her, crowdfunding provides market validation and helps entrepreneurs avoid financial risks. She advised entrepreneurs to consider alternative funding options and be mindful of their cash flow.<br/><br/>We also discussed the power of having a platform to amplify one&apos;s voice and generate income. In this episode, Dr. Wright shares her personal frustrations with the lack of support in their previous business venture and how they found success in the media industry. <br/><br/>Her TV show can be accessed through platforms like Amazon, Roku, and Apple TV, and she stressed the importance of regularly checking these channels for updates or issues.<br/><br/>Dr. Wright&apos;s passion for philanthropy was truly inspiring. She talked about her involvement in building apartment buildings for the elderly LGBTQ+ population and working with a project in Orange County that teaches at-risk kids about entrepreneurship. She emphasized the potential of these kids to become successful entrepreneurs and offered assistance through their website. <br/><br/>Today&apos;s podcast episode provided valuable insights and practical advice on crowdfunding, media, and philanthropy. <br/><br/><a href='https://www.facebook.com/DrLWright/'>https://www.facebook.com/DrLWright/</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@yourcrowdfundingexpert?lang=en'>https://www.tiktok.com/@yourcrowdfundingexpert?lang=en</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/drletitiawrigh'>https://www.linkedin.com/in/drletitiawrigh</a>t<br/><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/drwright1/?hl=en'>https://www.instagram.com/drwright1/?hl=en</a><br/><br/>If you are ready to grow your business find support and other like-minded entrepreneurs, join our <a href='https://goconfidentlyservices.myflodesk.com/confidentyoumastermind'>mastermind here. </a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Reina shared her personal experience of living through a traumatic event in Israel and how it affected her mental health. Simon, an Orthodox and pro-Zionist Jew, provided a brief history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and how it deeply affected him and his family.</p><p>Here are some key takeaways:</p><ol><li><b>The Lasting Impact of Childhood Experiences</b>: My childhood experiences during the civil war in El Salvador have shaped my views, values, and trauma. It&apos;s a reminder of how early experiences can leave a lasting impact on our mental health.</li><li><b>The Power of Empathy</b>: We emphasized the importance of holding space for each other and empathizing with others&apos; experiences. It&apos;s crucial to have open conversations and understanding rather than canceling people with different perspectives.</li><li><b>The Ongoing Conflict in Israel</b>: We discussed the current events in Israel, not to be political, but to create an open and honest conversation and to show respect for one another. We highlighted the ongoing atrocities and human rights violations happening today.</li><li><b>The Importance of Awareness</b>: Reina highlighted the power of sharing images and videos to expose the destruction happening in Israel. These visuals should serve as a reminder of the lives lost and the importance of taking action to minimize the suffering.</li><li><b>Protecting Children on Social Media</b>: We discussed the importance of curating and protecting children&apos;s content on social media platforms. Open conversations about important topics are crucial.</li></ol><p>I thank Reina and Simon for their invaluable contributions to this discussion. Their experiences and insights have enriched our understanding of these complex issues.</p><p>I encourage you to listen to this episode and gain knowledge, understanding, and empathy from our discussion.

Like me, many of the children affected will live forever with the current ramifications.<br/><br/>As of the release of this recording, Sunday 10/15/23 over 1300 Jewish people have been killed since October 7th.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>I recently welcomed Tilly Storm, a somatic safe sex and intimacy coach, onto the show. Tilly is also the host of the Multi-Orgasmic Millionaire podcast, which has gained recognition and a devoted following of over 330,000 listeners. She is known for her unique blend of wisdom, southern sass, and unapologetic authenticity.<br/><b><br/>A Journey Towards Sexual Empowerment<br/><br/></b>Tilly didn&apos;t grow up thinking she would become a sex coach. Raised in a Southern Baptist household, there was no talk about pleasure, relationships, or conscious communication. However, her curiosity led her to explore her sexuality at the age of 27, leading her to discover the Taoist practice called the Jade Egg.</p><p>Like Tilly, I also grew up in a religious environment that instilled guilt and shame around sex. It&apos;s a regret that many of us share, but it&apos;s also a catalyst for change and growth.</p><p><b>Overcoming Doubts and Pursuing Passion<br/><br/></b>Tilly&apos;s journey to becoming a sex and relationship coach wasn&apos;t without doubts. She had to consider the financial implications.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recently welcomed Tilly Storm, a somatic safe sex and intimacy coach, onto the show. Tilly is also the host of the Multi-Orgasmic Millionaire podcast, which has gained recognition and a devoted following of over 330,000 listeners. She is known for her unique blend of wisdom, southern sass, and unapologetic authenticity.<br/><b><br/>A Journey Towards Sexual Empowerment<br/><br/></b>Tilly didn&apos;t grow up thinking she would become a sex coach. Raised in a Southern Baptist household, there was no talk about pleasure, relationships, or conscious communication. However, her curiosity led her to explore her sexuality at the age of 27, leading her to discover the Taoist practice called the Jade Egg.</p><p>Like Tilly, I also grew up in a religious environment that instilled guilt and shame around sex. It&apos;s a regret that many of us share, but it&apos;s also a catalyst for change and growth.</p><p><b>Overcoming Doubts and Pursuing Passion<br/><br/></b>Tilly&apos;s journey to becoming a sex and relationship coach wasn&apos;t without doubts. She had to consider the financial implications. However, she knew deep down that this was her calling and couldn&apos;t ignore it.</p><p>I admire Tilly&apos;s courage in deciding to follow her heart and help others in the process. It&apos;s a common struggle to second-guess oneself and care too much about what others think. But it&apos;s crucial not to let external opinions keep you from pursuing your true passion.</p><p><b>From City Planner to Sex Coach</b></p><p>Before becoming a coach, Tilly worked as a city planner but was fired for breastfeeding her child.

I&apos;ve been working on my goal of walking 10,000 steps a day, and Megan Schmidt, one of our listeners, has kindly offered to be my accountability partner. This journey has led us to discuss the concept of kaizen, which emphasizes small, continuous improvements. It&apos;s a powerful tool that can be applied to personal goals, reminding us that every step counts.</p><p><b><br/>Empowering Women at The Village<br/></b><br/></p><p>I recently had the privilege of visiting The Village, an organization that provides financial literacy and support to women and families in need. I was moved by a story of how The Village helped a woman secure a deposit and furnishings for her home. I also had the opportunity to participate in the Empowered Women event, a partnership between Women United and The Village. We discussed relationship building, motherhood, and budgeting tips, all crucial aspects of empowering women.</p><p><b><br/>A Dose of Positivity and the Kaizen Story<br/></b><br/></p><p>I had an enlightening interview with Donna Malt from A Dose of Positivity. I highly recommend checking out the interview on Facebook or following me for more content.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In a recent episode of my podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Brenda Adelman, an award-winning actor, forgiveness coach, and a beacon of resilience. Brenda&apos;s journey from personal tragedy to forgiveness and healing is nothing short of inspiring. In this blog post, I&apos;ll share some of the key insights from our conversation.</p><p><b>Meeting Brenda Adelman<br/><br/></b>Brenda Adelman is not just an accomplished actor but also a recipient of the Hero of Forgiveness award. Her one-woman show, &quot;My Brooklyn Hamlet,&quot; is a testament to her life story of forgiving the unforgivable. Beyond her acting career, Brenda is a teacher and mentor for mission-driven performers and small business owners, helping them create successful TEDx-style talks and one-person shows.</p><p>I first met Brenda at her summit, where she was a gracious host. Her content led to incredible transformations for the participants, a testament to her ability to inspire and guide others.<br/><br/><b>Brenda&apos;s Origin Story<br/><br/></b>Brenda&apos;s life took a tragic turn when her father killed her mother and married her aunt. This defining moment could have led her to withdraw, but instead, she chose to move forward with forgiveness and healing. Her acting background helped her express herself and cope with the tragedy, leading her to create her one-woman show and eventually pursue a master&apos;s degree in spiritual psychology.</p><p><b>The Importance of Healthy Boundaries<br/><br/></b>During our conversation, Brenda emphasized the importance of setting healthy boundaries. She suggested using a scale of 1 to 5 to gauge one&apos;s feelings towards someone, with 1 being intense hatred and 5 being neutrality or even sending positive energy to that person. She also recommended tools like free-form writing and expressing anger in a safe and healthy way, such as through therapy or primal scream workshops.<br/><br/>Brenda shared an example of setting a healthy boundary with an abusive family member during the holidays. Instead of avoiding the family gathering, she suggested not staying in the same home as the abusive sibling or setting a time limit for the visit if negative behavior arises. This way, one can still show love and support for their mother while protecting their own well-being.</p><p><b>The Power of Forgiveness<br/><br/></b>Brenda&apos;s journey of forgiveness was initially painful but ultimately healing. She explained that expressing anger is crucial for forgiveness to occur. I shared my experience setting boundaries with my family and emphasized the importance of forgiveness in the process.<br/><br/>http://facebook.com/brendaadelman<br/><br/>https://facebook/com/groups/soulstorytribe </p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Recently, I had the pleasure of interviewing Leah Morrison, a trauma educator, coach, and healer. Our conversation was insightful and deeply personal as we delved into the topic of trauma, its impact on individuals and communities, and the journey toward healing.<br/><br/>Lea Morrison is a remarkable individual who has dedicated her life to bridging the gap between therapists and the coaching and wellness industry. Her journey towards reclaiming her well-being after childhood trauma led her to her current career. As we began our conversation, I couldn&apos;t help but acknowledge the crisis happening in Leah&apos;s community due to a recent wildfire, the McDougall wildfire, which has displaced many people in Kelowna, British Columbia.<br/><br/>Natural disasters, like the wildfire in Lea&apos;s community or the recent hurricane in California, can cause collective trauma. Lea explained that trauma encompasses big and small events, often called &quot;big T&quot; and &quot;small T&quot; traumas. She opened up about her personal experience with trauma and its impact on her mental health, leading to feelings of hopelessness and deep shame.<br/><br/>I believe it&apos;s crucial to normalize these feelings and spread awareness about available resources and support for those struggling with mental health issues. Trauma can affect the brain&apos;s ability to function optimally, leading to difficulties in problem-solving and making sense of things. It&apos;s like using dial-up internet instead of high-speed internet. The stigma and self-shame that often accompany these struggles further hinder one&apos;s ability to think clearly and seek help.<br/><br/>Lea shared her vision for the future, which includes launching a trauma-aware practitioner certification program. This program aims to provide wellness practitioners, coaches, and therapists with the tools and knowledge to support their clients better.<br/><br/>I encourage everyone to connect with Lea, explore her work, and show support. You can find more about her and her programs on her website. <br/><br/>Also, consider supporting organizations like Mamas for Mamas in Lea&apos;s community. Let&apos;s continue to spread awareness, support each other, and work towards healing from trauma.<br/><br/>Follow her on IG: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/leamorrison1?fbclid=IwAR244a9L4NkiCMrrJlbsk21iH4abM1o_DtNZtT4G2XOAp7eUXbHzIhbF3hs'><br/>leamorrison1</a></p><p>Her website: <br/><a href='https://www.leamorrison.com/?fbclid=IwAR30I_F1JKAxGihLKF2pTMlDfe1GzZJYBi4gEFlFZfNq48paqNtFlyx9cgw'>leamorrison.com</a><br/><br/>Help support victims of the fires in Lea&apos;s community:<br/><a href='https://www.mamasformamas.org/firesupport/'>https://www.mamasformamas.org/firesupport/</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In the latest episode of the Casa De Confidence Podcast, we had the privilege of sitting down with Jennifer Csedrik, the inspiring founder of Lip Positive Threads. Her journey is a testament to the power of daring to dream, following those dreams, and finding purpose in doing what you love.  Jen encourages individuals to embrace their uniqueness and spread positivity to the world.</p><p>Dare to Dream:<br/>Jennifer Csedrik&apos;s story exemplifies the importance of daring to dream. She followed her dreams passionately, translating her vision into reality with Lip Positive Threads. By daring to dream, we open ourselves up to endless possibilities, discovering our true potential and finding fulfillment in life.</p><p>Follow Your Dreams:<br/>Following one&apos;s dreams is not always an easy path, but Jen&apos;s determination and dedication serve as a reminder that it&apos;s worth the effort. By following our dreams, we align ourselves with our authentic selves, discovering what truly ignites our passions and drives us forward. As individuals, we must be willing to take risks, face challenges, and overcome obstacles to turn our dreams into reality. It is through this journey that we find meaning, happiness, and a sense of purpose.<br/><br/>Here is what Jen says about her business: <br/><br/>Lip Positive Threads was created by a stay-at-home mom of three from Connecticut.  These designs were literally pulled from dreams!  Screen printing and graphic design were all brand new.  <br/><br/>After a year of saving, the screen press was purchased. The barn was turned into a fully functional screen printing shop!  With the grace of God, an angel was sent to mentor, and the screen printing and graphic design began.  After this mentor left, it was a year of learning with black ink and emulsion EVERYWHERE! Almost four years later, Lip Positive Threads is a fully functional brand that inspires women to love themselves and support other women each and every day!<br/><br/>Our Mission:  Empower us girls to celebrate ourselves through self-love and self-care.  Each thread has a printed inspirational word and empowering message.  As you rock our threads, help us share our mission of shouting out positivity in everyday motion.  Our designs are printed on high-quality fabrics designed to empower you to be your best YOU!<br/><br/>Our logo combines the symbol for WOMAN with the Japanese/Chinese symbol for STRENGTH.  We are WOMEN STRONG! <br/><br/>Join our LIP POSITIVE MOVEMENT!  Help us spread the word to all of us girls out there that we are perfect just the way we are right now.  Embrace our uniqueness and remember just how foxy we are!  <br/><br/>We stand for women empowering women to speak out positivity to spread self-love and self-care!<br/><br/>Her logo combines the symbol for WOMAN and the Japanese/Chinese symbol for STRENGTH.  We are WOMEN STRONG.  The lips are a reminder to speak out with positivity!</p><p> Please check out Jen and her apparel shop here <a href='https://lippositivethreads.com/'>https://lippositivethreads.com/</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the latest episode of the Casa De Confidence Podcast, we had the privilege of sitting down with Jennifer Csedrik, the inspiring founder of Lip Positive Threads. Her journey is a testament to the power of daring to dream, following those dreams, and finding purpose in doing what you love.  Jen encourages individuals to embrace their uniqueness and spread positivity to the world.</p><p>Dare to Dream:<br/>Jennifer Csedrik&apos;s story exemplifies the importance of daring to dream. She followed her dreams passionately, translating her vision into reality with Lip Positive Threads. By daring to dream, we open ourselves up to endless possibilities, discovering our true potential and finding fulfillment in life.</p><p>Follow Your Dreams:<br/>Following one&apos;s dreams is not always an easy path, but Jen&apos;s determination and dedication serve as a reminder that it&apos;s worth the effort. By following our dreams, we align ourselves with our authentic selves, discovering what truly ignites our passions and drives us forward. As individuals, we must be willing to take risks, face challenges, and overcome obstacles to turn our dreams into reality. It is through this journey that we find meaning, happiness, and a sense of purpose.<br/><br/>Here is what Jen says about her business: <br/><br/>Lip Positive Threads was created by a stay-at-home mom of three from Connecticut.  These designs were literally pulled from dreams!  Screen printing and graphic design were all brand new.  <br/><br/>After a year of saving, the screen press was purchased. The barn was turned into a fully functional screen printing shop!  With the grace of God, an angel was sent to mentor, and the screen printing and graphic design began.  After this mentor left, it was a year of learning with black ink and emulsion EVERYWHERE! Almost four years later, Lip Positive Threads is a fully functional brand that inspires women to love themselves and support other women each and every day!<br/><br/>Our Mission:  Empower us girls to celebrate ourselves through self-love and self-care.  Each thread has a printed inspirational word and empowering message.  As you rock our threads, help us share our mission of shouting out positivity in everyday motion.  Our designs are printed on high-quality fabrics designed to empower you to be your best YOU!<br/><br/>Our logo combines the symbol for WOMAN with the Japanese/Chinese symbol for STRENGTH.  We are WOMEN STRONG! <br/><br/>Join our LIP POSITIVE MOVEMENT!  Help us spread the word to all of us girls out there that we are perfect just the way we are right now.  Embrace our uniqueness and remember just how foxy we are!  <br/><br/>We stand for women empowering women to speak out positivity to spread self-love and self-care!<br/><br/>Her logo combines the symbol for WOMAN and the Japanese/Chinese symbol for STRENGTH.  We are WOMEN STRONG.  The lips are a reminder to speak out with positivity!</p><p> Please check out Jen and her apparel shop here <a href='https://lippositivethreads.com/'>https://lippositivethreads.com/</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of &quot;Casa de Confidence,&quot; I welcomed supplement expert Kate Mahoney back to the podcast to discuss the confusing world of supplements. Kate shared her qualifications and expertise in the field and advised against buying supplements from Amazon due to the risks involved. She emphasized the importance of choosing trustworthy and reliable supplement brands, especially those only available through a practitioner or health professional.</p><p>We also discussed the importance of understanding the synergistic and antagonist relationships between minerals and taking a low dose of a balanced multimineral supplement to counteract any nutritional imbalances. Kate recommended Nordic Naturals&apos; Multi Minerals Ironed and Copper Free as her favorite supplement product.</p><p>Kate cautioned against taking melatonin supplements unless over the age of 45, as it can lead to dependence and negative feedback loops. Instead, she suggested natural alternatives like tart cherry juice and l-tryptophan, which is converted into serotonin and then melatonin.</p><p>We also talked about the importance of being mindful when it comes to choosing supplements and food and incorporating healthy habits into daily life. Kate emphasized the power of positive reinforcement in behavior change and celebrating small victories.</p><p>Lastly, we discussed the importance of honoring our natural circadian rhythms and surrounding ourselves with the right people, comparing it to taking the right supplements. Kate&apos;s one piece of advice for listeners was to drink enough clean water every day and pair the habit with an existing behavior or habit to make it easier to fulfill the goal.</p><p>Overall, this episode provides valuable insights and practical advice for navigating the complex world of supplements and improving overall health.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On this episode of the Casa De Confidence Podcast, host Julie DeLucca-Collins sits down with Katie Bramlett, the founder of WeShape.com. This wellness platform promotes a healthy and holistic approach to fitness.</p><p>Katie shares her personal journey with disordered eating and body dysmorphia and how it inspired her to create WeShape with the intention of advocating for people to prioritize movement, rest, and a deeper connection with self rather than solely focusing on the number on the scale.

They also touch on the role of mindfulness and meditation in self-care, the challenges of social media, and the power of vulnerability in building confidence.</p><p>This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to prioritize their well-being and embrace a more compassionate and intentional approach to fitness and self-care.

It is up to them to do the hard work of stepping out of their comfort zone. </p><p>As we celebrate Women’s History Month this week, I want to celebrate the tenacity I have witnessed my mom have amid incredible physical pain. I also want to remind you that to accomplish the difficult hard stuff; the NEXT best step is always the best option for all of us. </p><p>Focusing on the long road ahead is not easy and can discourage you. Instead, focus on the small wins, the little wins that add up to the progress you desire. </p><p>Today our guest is Dr. Melissa Bird.

When we give ourselves permission to feel the range of emotions, we can surrender to the knowledge we are not perfect, yet we are wonderfully made just as we are. </li><li><b>The book by Harvard-trained theologian Meggan Watters - Mary Magdalene Revealed. </b>In this book, she talks about how the body is the vessel for the soul, and we are here to have a human experience. We need to disrupt the narratives that this world creates for us. We need to be willing to step out of our comfort zone and change the living dynamic. </li><li><b>Action leads to clarity and confidence. </b>When we tap into our intuition and take inspired, intentional action, our clarity becomes inspired and intuitive, and our confidence can become inspired and intuitive.  This helps us to live in our divine purpose.</li></ul><p>Lastly, Dr. Melissa and I will participate in the International Women’s Day celebration on the TalkShopLive Network.<b> The show is on March 8 at 3:30 PM EST!</b></p><p><b>If you want to watch the prompt for the show, go </b><a href='https://talkshop.live/watch/TE0xI4_-dI-n'><b>HERE</b></a></p><p>Dr. Melissa Bird is a descendant of the Shivwits Band of Paiutes.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>How many times has fear paralyzed you into not taking action? <br/><br/>In March 2020, I was paralyzed with fear, and this was before the Covid lockdown. At the same time, I still worked for a company in NYC. Although it seemed, I was hugely successful from the outside; I was terrified that my life did not mean anything beyond my fancy title of Chief Innovation Officer and my work. </p><p>It was during that time I was reading the book Get Out of Your Own Way by Dave Hollis. When I read this quote, &quot;I am responsible for finding fulfillment in my job, for being happy with what I do, for knowing my value regardless of my title, the company I work for, the salary I make, or the way anyone looks at all of it.&quot; I found myself catastrophizing and being all in my feeling. </p><p>Over the next year, I was laid off and began to redefine my life. I participated in coaching with Dave Hollis and got to learn from him how he redefined his life and its meaning after leaving a successful career with Disney Studios. </p><p>I have often heard it said, &quot;People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.&quot; I will forever be grateful to Dave Hollis for helping me navigate my story and learn how to deal with my fear and internal dialogue that was not serving me. </p><p>In this episode, Dan and I begin paying tribute to Dave Hollis, who passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, February 11th.  </p><p>Here are other key points from this episode: </p><p>What did Dave Hollis say to me regarding what legacy he wanted to leave in this world and what I think about the legacy I want to leave behind. </p><ol><li>How fear fuels our cognitive distortions or the <b>internal mental filters or biases that increase our misery, fuel our anxiety, and make us feel bad about ourselves</b>. </li><li>We met our guest Lauren Nelson. Lauren wrote a children&apos;s book entitled &quot;SHEROES of the Bible,&quot; which tells the stories of 26 heroic women from the Bible who pushed past their fears and watched God do miraculous things because of their faith.</li></ol><p>Lauren says that fear has always been her greatest foe. She was sexually abused as a child, which left her with pronounced fear in her life. Because of her childhood trauma, Lauren has a deep passion and desire to minister to children and women who have been abused. Her book, SHEROES of the Bible, will help women and children conquer their fears and learn to intimately trust God, who loves them and who alone can heal their hearts.</p><p>You can find Lauren HERE: </p><p><a href='https://www.laurenlnelson.com/'>https://www.laurenlnelson.com/</a></p><p>If you want to learn how to overcome fear and the cognitive distortions that prevent us from living fully, download my mindful CEO Journal here:</p><p><a href='https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/quicklinks'>https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/quicklinks</a></p><p><br/><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Although it seemed, I was hugely successful from the outside; I was terrified that my life did not mean anything beyond my fancy title of Chief Innovation Officer and my work. </p><p>It was during that time I was reading the book Get Out of Your Own Way by Dave Hollis. When I read this quote, &quot;I am responsible for finding fulfillment in my job, for being happy with what I do, for knowing my value regardless of my title, the company I work for, the salary I make, or the way anyone looks at all of it.&quot; I found myself catastrophizing and being all in my feeling. </p><p>Over the next year, I was laid off and began to redefine my life. I participated in coaching with Dave Hollis and got to learn from him how he redefined his life and its meaning after leaving a successful career with Disney Studios. </p><p>I have often heard it said, &quot;People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.&quot; I will forever be grateful to Dave Hollis for helping me navigate my story and learn how to deal with my fear and internal dialogue that was not serving me. </p><p>In this episode, Dan and I begin paying tribute to Dave Hollis, who passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, February 11th.  </p><p>Here are other key points from this episode: </p><p>What did Dave Hollis say to me regarding what legacy he wanted to leave in this world and what I think about the legacy I want to leave behind. </p><ol><li>How fear fuels our cognitive distortions or the <b>internal mental filters or biases that increase our misery, fuel our anxiety, and make us feel bad about ourselves</b>. </li><li>We met our guest Lauren Nelson. Lauren wrote a children&apos;s book entitled &quot;SHEROES of the Bible,&quot; which tells the stories of 26 heroic women from the Bible who pushed past their fears and watched God do miraculous things because of their faith.</li></ol><p>Lauren says that fear has always been her greatest foe. She was sexually abused as a child, which left her with pronounced fear in her life. Because of her childhood trauma, Lauren has a deep passion and desire to minister to children and women who have been abused. Her book, SHEROES of the Bible, will help women and children conquer their fears and learn to intimately trust God, who loves them and who alone can heal their hearts.</p><p>You can find Lauren HERE: </p><p><a href='https://www.laurenlnelson.com/'>https://www.laurenlnelson.com/</a></p><p>If you want to learn how to overcome fear and the cognitive distortions that prevent us from living fully, download my mindful CEO Journal here:</p><p><a href='https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/quicklinks'>https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/quicklinks</a></p><p><br/><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Today I have a juicy conversation with one of the women I have grown to admire, Patty Dominguez. I was so lucky that Patty asked me to be a part of her show, the Positioning to Profit Podcast. <br/><br/> Her show is about setting yourself up uniquely in the marketplace because, let&apos;s face it, whatever marketplace you&apos;re in, there&apos;s a very high probability that it&apos;s super competitive. After getting to know her, I knew I wanted her to come to hang out at Casa De Confidence.<br/><br/>Patty Dominguez,  is the founder of Positioning to Profit, is a best-selling author, advisor, and contributing marketing expert. Her work has been featured on Smart Business, Investor’s Business Daily, NY Daily News, and American Express Open Forum to name a few. Prior to 2013, she worked in Fortune 50 and management consulting as head of Global Agency Strategy. She now helps service-based entrepreneurs claim their “Category of One” status based on their unique abilities.   <br/><br/>As I hear this conversation, I am reminded of a critical lesson I learned some years ago. We are never going to be everyone&apos;s cup of tea. <br/><br/>As the CEOs of our life and business, we must learn this key lesson to help us create a more significant impact and transformation for ourselves and others. <br/><br/>Patty reminds us of how to stand out in a crowded world. We need to have a clear brand promise, the thing that you promise, the transformation that you can stand behind, and to know that in good faith, you can lead people by being the person who really cares and is invested.<br/><br/>Our interactions with others should be more than just transactional. It&apos;s about being transformational in this world. <br/><br/>When you position it that way, you&apos;re not going to be for everybody. But you can help make someone&apos;s life better. <br/><br/>In this episode, we discuss how when you create expansion for someone and stand behind what you do, work from a place of integrity. You will have money but, most importantly, an immeasurable impact beyond what you can see. There is a ripple effect in the actual impact we create. <br/><br/>Lastly, in your journey, remember to stop &quot;picking up nickles&quot; and focus on the long term. Work with a coach that can help you generate and implement a plan that is not just for a quick win but for the vision you desire to achieve. <br/><br/>Find Patty on her <a href='https://pattydominguez.com'>website</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/thepattydominguez/'>https://www.instagram.com/thepattydominguez</a>/ <br/>https://twitter.com/PattyDominguez_<br/><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Today I am mad...<br/><br/>I am angry at what is happening in classrooms all over Florida. As a former educator, I have been disheartened to hear that teachers can face felony charges and even jail time for having books that feature LGBTQ themes and prominently feature people of different races and colors. <br/><br/>Developing a sense of identity is a crucial part of growing up. At every age, children learn about themselves. If these children don&apos;t see themselves in books, in art, or on television, they begin to form a negative perception of who they are and where they come from. <br/><br/> Of most books banned, 41% had LGBTQ themes or main characters, while 40% featured main characters of color. As a woman of color and Hispanic descent, I want my nieces and nephews to be represented. I hope you know I will use my platform to speak out against banned books and people being treated poorly. LOVE WINS always. Hate and fear do not have a home in my heart. <br/><br/>If you are in a state where books are being banned, you can join the Books Unbanned program from the<a href='https://www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned'> Brooklyn Public Library</a> and get a digital library card to access books you may not be able to read in your hometown. <br/><br/>Our interview today is with Mayi Lenz, a Personal Branding &amp; Fine Art Photographer, Speaker, Podcaster, and Philanthropist passionate about helping women lead unapologetically. <br/><br/>Her photoshoots are a personal and transformational experience.  While many people may know her as a photographer, they may not know that she’s also been on a journey to deeply understand how we, as women, perceive ourselves and our bodies and how we can learn to shift our mindset from negative emotions to positive ones.<br/> <br/>Photography has allowed her to have deeper conversations with women of all ages, body types, and sizes. This inspired her to host a weekly podcast delivered every Wednesday. <br/> <br/>She believes that we can all learn from each other’s experiences. The goal is to inspire and help women develop confidence and become unapologetically the best version of themselves.  Every woman deserves to be seen, heard, and appreciated.

    <description><![CDATA[<p> As we close out January, we have discussed goals, habits, and intentionality for the new year.</p><p>One thing we have yet to talk about is Manifestation.</p><p>Like many, the word manifestation made me uncomfortable. This was mainly because it felt like it was too New Age and pseudo-psychology for me. </p><p>When I first read the book Mindset by renowned Stanford University physiologist <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Mindset-Carol-S-Dweck-audiobook/dp/B07N48NM33/ref=sr_1_1?qid=1675017018&amp;refinements=p_27%3ACarol+S.+Dweck&amp;s=books&amp;sr=1-1'>Carol Dweck Ph.D.</a>, I began to uncover how my mindset&apos;s power can dramatically influence my success at work and in almost every area of my life.</p><p>For the first time, I learned Manifestation has real science and evidence behind it. </p><p>In some ways, like many people, I was brought up to believe that my abilities and talents were things I was born with and that I was incapable of changing over time.</p><p>I viewed failures as terrible things that defined me and that I should be ashamed of. In my personal development journey, I have grown to understand that my ability to do something can be improved with effort and learned behavior that we automate into habits.</p><p>Research suggests that if we genuinely believe we can achieve something and are willing to do the hard work, we can achieve it. Manifestation can also help us achieve our dreams because it helps us in reprogramming our brains. As humans, our brain is set to have a negativity bias. In other words, if we go for a nice date with our sweetie, our brain will focus not on the over-positive events of the night but perhaps the one rude waiter we encountered that evening. </p><p>This science-based approach shows us that if we truly believe we can achieve something, we are willing to <em>work</em> to achieve it.</p><p>Consistent habits, work, and belief that we can do it. Perseverance is critical because creating new habits takes time, commitment, and willingness to be uncomfortable and fail before we can see success and the desired outcomes we dream of having<b>.</b> In other words, Manifestation is not about the woo but about the work. </p><p>In this week&apos;s episode, I share my interview with Yolanda Boyrin, a money mindset and business coach for the driven entrepreneur ready to quantum leap. She is a certified coach, hypnotherapist, and Neuro-Linguistics Programming (NLP) practitioner. She helps entrepreneurs make and manifest more money, sales, and massive success that leads them to be completely fulfilled and live within their purpose. <br/><br/>Yolanda helps us learn more about manifestation, what it is and how to do it. <br/><br/>This interview is part of our Confident You Radio show, where we talk weekly with incredible individuals about what it takes to live in your purpose and how to help others do the same.<br/><br/> You can connect with Yolanda<a href='https://www.manifestmadmoney.com/'> here</a><br/><br/>If you want to listen to the Confident You Radio show, <a href='https://view.flodesk.com/pages/630e0b3ec861f3e7c8c818e8'>you can do so here.</a><br/><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> As we close out January, we have discussed goals, habits, and intentionality for the new year.</p><p>One thing we have yet to talk about is Manifestation.</p><p>Like many, the word manifestation made me uncomfortable. This was mainly because it felt like it was too New Age and pseudo-psychology for me. </p><p>When I first read the book Mindset by renowned Stanford University physiologist <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Mindset-Carol-S-Dweck-audiobook/dp/B07N48NM33/ref=sr_1_1?qid=1675017018&amp;refinements=p_27%3ACarol+S.+Dweck&amp;s=books&amp;sr=1-1'>Carol Dweck Ph.D.</a>, I began to uncover how my mindset&apos;s power can dramatically influence my success at work and in almost every area of my life.</p><p>For the first time, I learned Manifestation has real science and evidence behind it. </p><p>In some ways, like many people, I was brought up to believe that my abilities and talents were things I was born with and that I was incapable of changing over time.</p><p>I viewed failures as terrible things that defined me and that I should be ashamed of. In my personal development journey, I have grown to understand that my ability to do something can be improved with effort and learned behavior that we automate into habits.</p><p>Research suggests that if we genuinely believe we can achieve something and are willing to do the hard work, we can achieve it. Manifestation can also help us achieve our dreams because it helps us in reprogramming our brains. As humans, our brain is set to have a negativity bias. In other words, if we go for a nice date with our sweetie, our brain will focus not on the over-positive events of the night but perhaps the one rude waiter we encountered that evening. </p><p>This science-based approach shows us that if we truly believe we can achieve something, we are willing to <em>work</em> to achieve it.</p><p>Consistent habits, work, and belief that we can do it. Perseverance is critical because creating new habits takes time, commitment, and willingness to be uncomfortable and fail before we can see success and the desired outcomes we dream of having<b>.</b> In other words, Manifestation is not about the woo but about the work. </p><p>In this week&apos;s episode, I share my interview with Yolanda Boyrin, a money mindset and business coach for the driven entrepreneur ready to quantum leap. She is a certified coach, hypnotherapist, and Neuro-Linguistics Programming (NLP) practitioner. She helps entrepreneurs make and manifest more money, sales, and massive success that leads them to be completely fulfilled and live within their purpose. <br/><br/>Yolanda helps us learn more about manifestation, what it is and how to do it. <br/><br/>This interview is part of our Confident You Radio show, where we talk weekly with incredible individuals about what it takes to live in your purpose and how to help others do the same.<br/><br/> You can connect with Yolanda<a href='https://www.manifestmadmoney.com/'> here</a><br/><br/>If you want to listen to the Confident You Radio show, <a href='https://view.flodesk.com/pages/630e0b3ec861f3e7c8c818e8'>you can do so here.</a><br/><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, we have a great conversation with sleep and postpartum doula Patricia Grenseman.  <a href='https://www.patriciagrenseman.com/work-with-me'>Virtual postpartum doula cares</a> for families who want a more calm and confident fourth trimester.<br/><br/>Before we start the conversation, Dan and I discuss creating a spark for the new year. <br/><br/>We also shared the principles of the book &quot;Think and Grow Rich&quot; from Napoleon Hill. As a couple and business owners, we plan to adopt these principles to make this the best year yet. <br/><br/>The 13 steps to riches, as outlined in &quot;Think and Grow Rich&quot; by Napoleon Hill, are:<br/>1. Desire: Start with a strong desire or burning ambition to achieve a specific goal or outcome.<br/><br/>2. Faith: Have unwavering faith in yourself and your ability to achieve your goal.<br/><br/>3. Autosuggestion: Use positive self-talk and affirmations to reinforce your beliefs and goals.<br/><br/>4. Specialized knowledge: Acquire the knowledge and skills needed to achieve your goal.<br/><br/>5. Imagination: Use your imagination to visualize your goal and see yourself achieving it.<br/><br/>6. Organized planning: Develop a detailed plan of action to achieve your goal.<br/><br/>7. Decision: Make a firm decision to follow through on your plan and never give up.<br/><br/>8. Persistence: Keep working towards your goal, even when faced with obstacles or setbacks.<br/><br/>9. Power of the Master Mind: Surround yourself with like-minded people who support and encourage you.<br/><br/>10. The Mystery of Sex Transmutation: Use the power of your sexual energy to fuel your desire and drive.<br/><br/>11. The Subconscious Mind: Tap into the power of your subconscious mind to help you achieve your goals.<br/><br/>12. The Brain: Use your brain to analyze and plan, and to make decisions and take action.<br/><br/>13. The Sixth Sense: Trust your intuition and inner guidance to help you make the right decisions and achieve your goals.<br/><br/>In my conversation with our guest Patricia, I learned much about how she is helping couples enjoy new parenthood and how she supports them in navigating the critical few weeks after bringing a new life into the world. <br/><br/>Through virtual doula care, she&apos;s helped people waiting to meet their babies make plans and prepare for their upcoming birth and postpartum.</p><p>She helps new parents work out the basics of newborn care: when and how much to feed, how to bathe a baby, use a baby carrier, and learn sleep cues.</p><p>She&apos;s also helped new parents better reflect on their experiences, their expectations, and their goals so that they can take steps to look after themselves and meet those goals. <br/><br/>Connect with Patricia <a href='https://www.instagram.com/ppdoulapatricia/'>here</a> for her Instagram. <br/><br/>If you want to build a spark for your business in 2023, the time is now!

The Sixth Sense: Trust your intuition and inner guidance to help you make the right decisions and achieve your goals.<br/><br/>In my conversation with our guest Patricia, I learned much about how she is helping couples enjoy new parenthood and how she supports them in navigating the critical few weeks after bringing a new life into the world. <br/><br/>Through virtual doula care, she&apos;s helped people waiting to meet their babies make plans and prepare for their upcoming birth and postpartum.</p><p>She helps new parents work out the basics of newborn care: when and how much to feed, how to bathe a baby, use a baby carrier, and learn sleep cues.</p><p>She&apos;s also helped new parents better reflect on their experiences, their expectations, and their goals so that they can take steps to look after themselves and meet those goals. <br/><br/>Connect with Patricia <a href='https://www.instagram.com/ppdoulapatricia/'>here</a> for her Instagram. <br/><br/>If you want to build a spark for your business in 2023, the time is now!

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Did you know that executive function skills can help us thrive and succeed? <br/><br/>Sadly, these are not skills we are not born with and taught in school.  <br/><br/>These skills are crucial for success in school and our overall life. Executive functioning skills are mental skills that enable us to manage every area of our daily lives. <br/><br/>Attention, problem-solving, flexible thinking, working memory, self-control, and even emotional control are executive functioning skills that allow us to manage day-to-day tasks, stay safe, and get things done. <br/><br/>When executive functioning skills are lacking, we can have challenges with planning, prioritization, organization, and staying on task. <br/><br/>Behavioral inhibition or emotional inhibition is part of executive functioning too. <br/><br/>In this week&apos;s episode, our guest Caroline Sumner firmly believes empowerment isn&apos;t a one-time event but a continuous process. She is the founder of Empower Academic Coaching, an online ADHD and academic coaching for kids and adults. <br/><br/>Caroline Sumners is the Founder &amp; President of Empower Academic Coaching, where she helps middle and high school students and their families with customized strategies for learning and peacefully achieving their academic goals. Caroline is a former teacher with over 11 years of education experience, and she and her team members have supported over 170 families in their journey toward educational empowerment. Caroline lives in Savannah, Georgia, with her wife and 2 dogs.<br/><br/>Caroline finds that students aren&apos;t learning about these skills just one time; instead, she and her team reiterate these lessons again each time a student is ready to learn something new, explore a concept more deeply, or need a refresher on how that skill applies to a new situation.<br/><br/>Caroline, a former teacher, saw parents were frustrated because their child&apos;s school differed from their own experience. Most parents also found it tough for them and their children to juggle all assignments posted on different websites and platforms. Parents and students alike were finding the system difficult and frustrating. <br/><br/><br/>&quot;<b>All students deserve to feel confident about their abilities, and all families deserve a stress-free dinner together -- </b><b><em>without</em></b><b> arguments over homework.</b></p><p> Empower Academic help the students and adults they support believe that all students can succeed on their terms, both academically and personally. They use the coaching process to help students set goals, build confidence, apply strategies to their learning, and help families experience peace of mind. <br/><br/>They aim to help students have richer, more rewarding learning experiences through their commitment to empowerment, peace, and thoughtfulness. <br/><br/>You can connect with <a href='https://www.empoweracademiccoaching.com/'>Caroline and Empower Academic Coaching here.</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/empoweracademic/'>Instagram</a><br/><a href='https://www.facebook.com/empoweracademiccoaching'>Facebook </a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>For as long as I can remember, giving back has been a part of what is important to me. <br/><br/>Throughout my life, I have volunteered many hours to help in my community with organizations that are doing phenomenal work. <br/><br/>The truth is that I volunteer, not because I am a good person. I do it for very selfish reasons. Giving back reminds me how blessed I am and makes me feel good.<br/><br/>When I have been too focused on myself and not giving to others, I begin to focus on my empty cup and a life lacking the shine we sometimes feel it should have. In other words, I am living in the gap of life instead of the gain.<br/><br/>You don&apos;t have to look far to find someone who needs a friend, advice, or shelter. <br/><br/>Whether you&apos;re donating money or time, giving promotes happiness, increases our connection to others, and strengthens empathy. Wealth is a concept that, for me, starts inside of us. Being empathetic and sharing our blessings can help us feel good and increase our mental well-being. <br/><br/>As entrepreneurs, we tend to prioritize long-term goals. We also want to impact the world through our work alone. Giving back can remind us that what we are doing is also impacting outside our inner circle and keeping us on track to our goals. However, chances are good that we&apos;d never have the world-changing impact I hoped for. <br/><br/>In today&apos;s episode, I interview Eric Harrison, the United Way of Central and Eastern Connecticut&apos;s new President and CEO.<br/><br/>Eric is an experienced Chief Executive Officer with a demonstrated history of working in the non-profit organization management industry. Skilled in Nonprofit Organizations, Budgeting, Event Management, Volunteer Management, and Public Speaking. Strong business development professional with a Master of Business Administration (MBA) focused in Business Administration and Management, General from the Minnesota School of Business. <br/><br/>I had a lot of fun getting to know him and learning more about what drives him to lead an organization like the United Way. <br/><br/>I am so happy that we have an incredible visionary committed to helping create more robust, more prosperous communities. <br/><br/>In the last couple of years alone, United Way has stepped up to answer the call of those in need. Their mission is to engage and bring together people and resources committed to the well-being of children and families in our community. They have ensured that people&apos;s immediate needs are met while finding long-term solutions to challenges in our community.<br/><br/>In this episode, I share more about ALICE households.

For many, politics seems to be the one topic we all want to escape, yet we are surrounded by it. <br/><br/>Perhaps like the majority, you are a reluctant spectator in the past. However, there is so much at stake lately that I could not open up a discussion on this topic. <br/><br/>Over the course of the years, I have been fortunate enough to get a first-hand look at our governmental system.  During my career, I was asked to collaborate with Capital Hill Staffers to draft education policies and share a first-hand account of how these policies impacted our schools and students. <br/><br/>I have had the opportunity to watch individuals from both sides of the aisle work together successfully to make a difference in the lives of the people they represent.<br/><br/>If you believe politics are &quot;dirty,&quot; &quot;don&apos;t matter,&quot; or &quot;why should I care?&quot; This show is for you today.<br/><br/>I think that, at times, our limited understanding and knowledge of a topic keeps us from taking action or, in some cases taking the right action that can benefit us. <br/><br/>I know that we can often feel powerless and ineffective in creating change.  For this reason, I am sharing this interview with you today. <br/><br/>This week&apos;s guest is Claire Campos-O’Neal, mother to two young boys, daughter of a first-generation Mexican-American, and co-host of Go Behind the Ballot Podcast. In November 2021, she put her name on the ballot and ran for office for the first time. She hoped to be the next State Representative for House District-51, which covers much of southeast Austin and Travis County. </p><p> What pushed her to throw her hat in the ring was the regret I was sure I would feel if I stood back on the sidelines.<br/><br/>Before running for office, she worked as a real estate agent focusing on residential sales. While Claire didn’t love the grind of working real estate transactions, she was always eager to learn more about the trajectory of her city, the demographic trends, and what makes a place desirable. <br/><br/>After the race for HD-51, she took stock of that surreal experience and felt compelled to create a place for communal learning and growth. Claire and her co-host of the podcast Nichole Ab hope that ‘Go Behind the Ballot’ is that home for the curious, the courageous, the compassionate, and the kind.<br/> <br/>There is so much at stake in this election.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>This week&apos;s show episode shows us that &quot;Leadership is not about fixing employee problems. It&apos;s about cultivating relationships based on equality and a human connection.&quot; This quote is from Michelle Thompson. <br/><br/>Her journey started with being accused of covering up the death of a resident to creating her own consulting and coaching business that helped to emerge. Experienced leaders learn how to prioritize human connections more than bottom lines to create workplaces that people never want to leave. <br/><br/>Michele is a Registered Nurse with a Gerontology Specialist Certification with more than 25 years of clinical, strategic, and operational experience within seniors care. <br/><br/>She specializes in leadership, has partnered with private and non-profit stakeholders, and has worked with First Nations in British Columbia.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week&apos;s show episode shows us that &quot;Leadership is not about fixing employee problems. It&apos;s about cultivating relationships based on equality and a human connection.&quot; This quote is from Michelle Thompson. <br/><br/>Her journey started with being accused of covering up the death of a resident to creating her own consulting and coaching business that helped to emerge. Experienced leaders learn how to prioritize human connections more than bottom lines to create workplaces that people never want to leave. <br/><br/>Michele is a Registered Nurse with a Gerontology Specialist Certification with more than 25 years of clinical, strategic, and operational experience within seniors care. <br/><br/>She specializes in leadership, has partnered with private and non-profit stakeholders, and has worked with First Nations in British Columbia. Michele supports leaders to develop skills founded in the basics of human connections, which build trust, lead change and create respectful workplaces where shared values lead to exceptional outcomes. <br/><br/>Michele&apos;s unique expertise supports leaders to improve employee engagement by implementing her P.E.R.S.O.N.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this week&apos;s show episode, I speak to another friend I met through the No BS Weighloss group. <br/><br/>A few weeks ago, she shared on Facebook that she had signed up to do this vast adventurous experience. <br/><br/>I knew immediately that I wanted to have her on the show to talk about this more. Roxane agreed but told me she would be a guest after the event. <br/><br/>On September 22nd through September 25th, she and her husband David embarked on an incredible experience in Whistler, BC.   <br/><br/>The incredible adventure my friend had sign-up for involved 1 mountain. 36 hours. 29029 vertical feet. <br/><br/>This experience is called Eversting 29029. Event organizers rent a mountain, and participants have 36 hours to climb 29029 ft. This is the height of Mt. Everest. This is an adventure and not a race. This is an opportunity to challenge yourself and compete against yourself. <br/><br/>Many people are probably asking why would anyone want to do this. As someone who has challenged herself before, I can relate to the desire to do this since overcoming the challenges we set for ourselves change us significantly. <br/><br/>At times, facing these challenges show us what we are really made of. Combining physical, spiritual, and mental challenges shows us how strong we can be. <br/><br/>These experiences not only grow us but show us that no matter what life brings, we are made of solid stuff that we can tap into at any time. <br/><br/>Roxane embarked on this adventure, hoping to feel proud of herself. In addition, she pushed through self-doubt, even when her pace started to falter, and found the inner strength within her to conquer more than Everest. <br/><br/>Check out this conversation to learn about this extraordinary adventure and how YOU, too, can conquer the mountains we all face in our life. <br/><br/>Connect with Roxane on <br/><a href='https://www.facebook.com/roxanegray'>Facebook</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/roxgray/'>Instagram</a><br/><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/roxane-gray-175a224/'>Linked-in</a> <br/><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/29029everesting/'>Learn more about Eversting HERE</a><br/><br/>If you want to work on learning about <a href='https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/quicklinks'>what sabotages you, take this quiz here</a><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Back then, the No BS weight loss group was called PNP Tribe . We were about 100 members strong and forged solid and authentic connections even when meeting up with people on the internet was not as common. <br/><br/>Over the years, Emily has been a good friend I can count on for love and support. <br/><br/>I am so proud to have her in my corner as a friend. She is one of the most empathetic, kind women you could ever meet. Not to mention intelligent and generous of heart. <br/><br/>Emily was one of the first friends I told I was starting this show. She not only has been one of my strongest supporters, but she also gave me invaluable advice to trademark the name Casa DeConfidence. <br/><br/>After a successful career in a major law firm in Austin, she transitioned to working for our friend Corinne. <br/><br/>While working for NoBS, she discovered her passion for helping other women connect to their long-forgotten desires and go from being depleted and burnt out to thriving and fully reawakening their desires. <br/><br/>I am so proud that she is now a certified Sex Coach and is helping women who have spent years doing for others prioritize themselves and reawaken their desires and feel alive and at ease with their bodies. <br/><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/emily_young_co/'>Find Emily on Instagram here</a>.<br/>Make sure you sign up for her email list.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In today&apos;s episode, I shared the story of my apple tree. <br/><br/>Earlier today, Dan told me he mowed my apple tree by mistake. <br/><br/>He told me while we were outside doing some cleaning up from his yard work. <br/><br/>He nervously said, &quot;don&apos;t be mad at me...&quot; Before he could finish the sentence, I looked across the yard and noticed that the little apple tree I had planted was gone. <br/><br/>A rush of sadness hit me so hard and fast. I could not believe the wave of emotions. <br/><br/>The little apple tree I planted in the spring had overcome the odds. Being a city with a history of killing plants in the past was the first obstacle. The second obstacle was not being planted right away and beginning to dry out. Before its untimely demise, my little tree was thriving and showed such great promise. <br/><br/>For days, I watered the little stick in the hope that it would come back... and come back it did. <br/><br/>During our intro, Dan and I discuss the parallels between the tree and our life. I used this incident as a teaching moment on emotions, tiny habits, consistency, and resiliency. <br/><br/>Like my little &quot;Appy&quot; (the name I had given my tree), Oleg Lougheed has overcome many odds and challenges in his life.<br/><br/>He relinquished his parents&apos; rights at nine years old and entered the Russian orphanage. At 12 years old, he decided to be adopted into a new family, in a new country, halfway across the world, to start a new life. At 24 years old, he began his journey of helping others live the life they have always dreamed of, despite their hardships and misfortunes, by allowing them to recognize the uniqueness and worth within their own story.<br/><br/>Uncertainty guided him during a time of tragedy and pain.  Rejection affirmed his thoughts and feelings about the change that needed to take place. Fear gave Oleg the confidence to create the much-needed adoptee/foster care space. <br/><br/>He likes to say: &quot;Alone you have a story, together, we have a voice - Oleg Lougheed<br/><br/>Here is some wisdom and takeaways for me after speaking to him. <br/><br/>Oleg’s community creates space for others to be heard<br/>Everything is possible once you set your mind to it with convictions<br/>Instead of asking yourself ‘why me?” ask yourself ‘why not me?’<br/>Accept there is nothing in life you cannot do.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>I have struggled with weight for a long time. <br/><br/>My perfectionism is part of the reason why. <br/><br/> Perhaps you have struggled with being a perfectionist. By the way, there is no such thing. This is a concept I learned when I first worked with Jane Pilger on my journey to lose weight. Jane is our newest guest on the show this week. <br/><br/>I gained from Jane so much insight into how I could overcome these sabotaging behaviors that I applied her lessons to other areas of my life. <br/><br/>When I was about to do the Camino De Santiago in Spain and was less than ready physically, Jane reminded me that the &quot;currency for my dreams is discomfort.&quot; THIS QUOTE!!! Friend, it is a mantra I live by now, thanks to her. <br/><br/>I hope you enjoy this brilliant woman sharing candidly about her struggles with binge eating and her terrible bicycle accident that fractured her pelvis and almost left her on the sidelines of her elite triathlete career. <br/><br/>After tons of discomfort, she is back at it and on her way to Kona, Hawaii, to achieve her dreams of competing in the Supersapiens Ironman World Championships.<br/><br/>Jane has been coaching women on binge eating, food freedom, and body trust since 2013. On the outside, she has always looked like a very successful person - with many achievements and certifications to her name. <br/><br/>But inside, she felt like she had one very big shameful secret. That she was out of control with food. She spent decades trying to get her eating and her body under control.</p><p> Giving up on the quest for control and perfection was key to ending her bingeing. It took looking at what she was doing in a new way, understanding how she was setting herself up to binge and constantly working against herself rather than with herself. It took developing trust and turning shame and judgment into compassion and curiosity.</p><p> Whether you are a binge eater, someone who doesn&apos;t trust themselves with certain foods, or who just doesn&apos;t understand why they behave the way they sometimes do, she&apos;s got you. She will teach you how to understand your behavior, develop trust with yourself, and cultivate the support you need to navigate life. Her approach is rooted in the science of the brain and body, trauma-informed, and filled with compassion.</p><p> When Jane isn&apos;t coaching, she is either connecting with friends and family, pursuing finish lines, resting, or planning the next adventure. She strives to make a difference in those around her while living a life of love, trust, adventure, and growth.<br/><br/>Connect with Jane <a href='https://www.instagram.com/janepilgercoaching/'>on IG</a> or <a href='https://www.facebook.com/jane.pilger'>Facebook</a><br/><br/>Make sure you attend one of her upcoming Masterclass.

    <title>Ep: 135 Normalizing Anxiety, and Not Having it all Together as an Entrepreneur and Coach Susie Castellanos</title>
    <itunes:summary><![CDATA[The stress, fear, and anxiety you experience are getting in the way of your success in business and your personal life.   It was the middle of February in 2022, and I was beating myself up for staying in bed so long after waking up.   As an experienced business coach, I know the importance of a schedule, prioritizing tasks, and working on the plan, you create for yourself and your business.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>The stress, fear, and anxiety you experience are <b>getting in the way of your success in business and your personal life. <br/><br/></b>It was the middle of February in 2022, and I was beating myself up for staying in bed so long after waking up. <br/><br/>As an experienced business coach, I know the importance of a schedule, prioritizing tasks, and working on the plan, you create for yourself and your business. <br/><br/>On this day, like many others of the long cold winter, I was having difficulty getting out of bed. AGAIN.<br/><br/>I knew this resulted from mild anxiety, seasonal affective disorder, and a bit of depression. <br/><br/>I felt like a loser, a fraud, and so much more. This pushed me into a cycle of emotional eating and being overwhelmed. I dug deep into my arsenal of coaching tools, inspirational podcasts, mediations, affirmations, and journaling. Sadly, nothing was changing for me. Instead, I sank deeper into my vortex of negative self-talk and shame.  <br/><br/>Later this day, I got an email that changed many things for me. Earlier that month, I had been awarded a free coaching session by a fellow coach.  <br/><br/>I decided to reply back and take up my fellow coach on the free session. I knew it would help me talk things out and create a plan for moving forward. <br/><br/>This fellow coach, <a href=' https://www.lifecoachsusie.com'>Susie Castellanos, is a Mindset &amp; Empowerment Coach</a> who helps people feel better about themselves and their lives. She specializes in helping first-gen trailblazers reduce anxiety and self-doubt, increase confidence, and reach even higher levels of achievement. <br/><br/>Susie helps women like me who are considered “successful” (good job and salary, educated, middle-class lifestyle), yet don’t FEEL successful and keep striving to hit the next rung in hopes that we will <em>finally</em> feel secure. After our first session, I knew I needed a coach&apos;s support to help me manage emotionally challenging situations with family, coworkers, and clients with CALM and EASE without reverting to old patterns.<br/><br/>I knew that although I have had therapy, meds, and self-help books in the past, they left me feeling that some underlying issues were left unresolved. These resources gave me insights but no practical solutions and strategies that helped me stop feeling like a fraud.<br/><br/>In today&apos;s conversation, I speak candidly with Susie about how she works with others like me. Her personal journey as a coach, her personal trauma, and overcoming obstacles to live confidently helping others do the same. </p><p>Originally from San Diego, CA, Susie is a first-generation Mexican American, the first in her family to attend college, and an Ivy League Ph.D. Thanks to life coaching, she removed mental and emotional blocks that had held her back, quit her corporate job, and now gets to help others create lives they love as a life coach. She lives in Durham, NC, with her husband of 17 years, Bill, three cats, and an extensive collection of family and friends.<br/><br/>Connect with Susie here: </p><ul><li><a href='https://www.lifecoachsusie.com'>Web</a></li><li><a href=' https://www.facebook.com/lifecoachsusiehansley'>FB Page</a></li><li><a href='https://www.instagram.com/lifecoachsusiehansley'>IG</a> </li><li><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/susie-castellanos-hansley/'>LinkedIn</a> </li><li><a href='https://www.clubhouse.com/@lifecoachsusie'>Clubhouse</a></li></ul><p><br/>Working with a coach is one of many solutions we can utilize to help us feel better and manage our mental fitness and health.

Gail advocates for creating habits in those areas that help you live vibrantly. <br/><br/>Her goal is to change the narrative around aging so that younger people can realize that it&apos;s something to embrace and look forward to and inspire and motivate her peers never to take their wellness for granted. Vibrant, healthy life is achievable regardless of age! Age is a mindset-old is an attitude.</p><p> I love her belief that age should never affect how we dress, what we enjoy doing, and how we are portrayed in society. She is here to break down the barriers of institutional ageism and change how fitness brands, in particular, look at midlife women.&quot;<br/><br/>Growing to be &quot;wellderly&quot; is one of my goals. For this reason, I love surrounding myself with women like Gail.

    <description><![CDATA[<p> &quot;I am meant to empower and motivate women.&quot;<br/><br/>The quote above is from this week&apos;s guest, Lyne Frank. <br/><br/>I am so thrilled to have connected with this incredible lady.  Lyne Frank is a Global Sisterhood women’s circle facilitator, performance coach, and the creator of<em> Ignite in Circle,</em> a dynamic 7-week group-based personal transformation program that trains women to own their feminine power, cultivate self-worth, and ultimately, achieve what they authentically want in life. <br/><br/>In this episode, we talk about so much. Lyne spoke about how when the universe came knocking, it woke her from the social trance that many of us have our best life. Through her midlife awakening, she started to write a book to empower women.<br/><br/><br/>Two years into her project, a new editor (now a treasured friend) asked her to start over. After many tears and meditating, Lyne found the strength to keep going. <br/><br/>This experience birthed Ignite in Circle, a revolutionary program for women that combines the time-honored structure of women&apos;s circles with personal growth training. She quickly realized the women attending were those who could offer to spend money on self-development. <br/><br/>This reality hurt her heart, and her body nudged her to do more. She wanted all women to have access to what they needed to live their best lives, so she created a private Facebook group called Ignite in Community with no budget.<br/> <br/>When Lyne isn’t leading women&apos;s circles or speaking to women’s groups, she is often found chillin’ with Mother Nature. Lyne is known to dance around barefoot in her backyard listening to tunes by modern folk artists like Rising Appalachia, Ayla Nareo, and compilations by DJ Alexbird. Of course, when she does this, she usually envisions more women leaders rising as a collective to bring gender balance to a world, she believes, sorely needs it.<br/><br/><br/>Connect with Lyne here: <br/><br/><a href='https://www.lynefrank.com/start-here'>Website</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/lynefrank_actioncoach/'>IG</a><br/><a href='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvE95q6bK-n7RVz4SoO-aPg/videos'>Youtube</a><br/><a href='https://www.facebook.com/lyne.frank.100'>Facebook</a><br/> <b><br/><br/></b><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>One of my first Christmas memories is in Puerto Rico visiting my Paternal Grandmother&apos;s family. I don&apos;t have full mind movies of the trip but I have vague snapshots of the people and the food. <br/><br/>Over the course of my life, I have always wanted to connect with my paternal grandmother&apos;s heritage by learning all I can about the food. <br/><br/>For this reason, when I first met this week&apos;s guest, I was called to support her and help her in all I can to build and grow her dream. <br/><br/>Luz Nazario is the founder of NEDA’s Coquito and is a veteran educator with more than 25 years of experience preparing and educating the future game changers. While I haven&apos;t met Luz in person, we did meet at ClubHouse in the Amigos Club. Luz runs the book club in the Amigos Club on Clubhouse. She currently lives in Miami, originally from Puerto Rico...which brings us to COQUITO! <br/><br/>Four years ago, Luz decided to make some game-changing moves herself over Christmas as funds ran low because she needed to do something quickly to tide the family over until she returned to work. <br/><br/>Using the ingredients already at home, Luz created a unique coquito recipe that people simply fell in love with. In case you don&apos;t know, coquito means “little coconut” and is a drink typically served during the Christmas holidays. Simply delish!<br/><br/>Now, Luz is expanding to have a summer launch with different flavors! I know her determination and drive will help her be a success. I was so fortunate to have Luz as my client and I am proud of how she implemented the things I coached on like building her email list, creating a launch plan, attracting potential new customers, and nurturing existing ones. <br/><br/>Please check out her inspirational story and make sure you connect with Luz? <br/>- <a href='https://www.instagram.com/nedascoquito/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y='>Instagram</a><br/>- <a href='https://site.us7.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=92037b53682af867a834e5655&amp;id=1c85f77693'>Newsletter<br/></a><br/></p><p>If you want to learn more about coaching with me, <a href='https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/coaching'>you can check out my programs here</a>. <br/><br/><br/><br/><a href='https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/legalcode'>Creative Commons License for music </a>- Song: Hot Salsa Trip by artist <a href='https://freemusicarchive.org/music/arsonist/#contact-artist'>Arsonist</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In today&apos;s episode, I speak to the amazing Lisa Michelle. I am so glad that I have gotten to know her since we began working together. <br/><br/>Like many people, I have experienced my share of grief and difficult situations. This past week, our nation once again had to experience the shock and horror of another mass shooting. <br/><br/>This episode had already been scheduled to be released and I know that this discussion is more important than ever. <br/><br/>Lisa Michelle Zega is a Life Coach for Midlife Women of faith who are starting over after the death of a spouse or a divorce and are struggling with sadness and self-doubt. She helps them metabolize grief to retain all the nutrients, learning, and wisdom and release the waste, so they can begin again with joy and confidence. </p><p>She was married to a pastor, divorced after 23 years of marriage and her boys stopped talking to her for nearly 6 years. Zega later buried a fiancé 5 months before their wedding day. She now lives with her handsome biker hubby, adorable Jack Russel, and creative stepson outside of Los Angeles and enjoys a renewed relationship with her grown sons. <br/><br/>Here is the <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94UIIpBZ4as'>Candlebox song </a>Dan and I talked about in the intro<br/><br/>If you want to participate in <a href='https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfYmaJo4t_4UrFOYuul82lvk68ROuep2T1wDlvsS27rl1Wttg/viewform?usp=sf_link'>Peaceful You 2022</a> <a href='https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfYmaJo4t_4UrFOYuul82lvk68ROuep2T1wDlvsS27rl1Wttg/viewform?usp=sf_link'>(21 days of a daily mindfulness practice go here) </a><br/><br/>Connect with Lisa on<a href='https://www.facebook.com/lisamicamichelle'> Facebook</a> <br/><a href='https://www.legityou.com/'>Lisa&apos;s website</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/lisamichelle.legityou/?hl=en'>Lisa&apos;s Instagram</a><br/><br/><br/>If you want to check out my<a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@juliedelco2/video/7102969796630826282?is_copy_url=1&amp;is_from_webapp=v1'> TikTok of Dan dancing go here</a><br/><br/>If you want to read about my experience with grief after my dad&apos;s passing I talk about it in my book<a href='https://www.amazon.com/Confident-You-Simple-habits-imagined/dp/1737858401/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1653836732&amp;sr=1-1'> Confident YOU!

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Today I celebrate my mom and all the moms that I love. Motherhood is a job that comes with no manual or training. Today can look different for all of us.  I hope, dear friend, that you remind yourself that having a happy day is not about the cards, the gifts, or even the actions of others. <br/><br/>&quot;Happy&quot; can come from how you choose to think today. Perhaps you are missing your mom, your children are not with you, or like me, you don&apos;t have children who call you mom. I want to remind you to choose to focus on what you <b>do</b> have. Every day is an opportunity to find joy, live in gratitude, and be intentional with what you want to feel. <br/><br/>Like many who don&apos;t have children, I began to feel that mix of emotions that can come from a day like this one. A day where you can feel everyone celebrates the accomplishment of motherhood, and yet you seem to be left out. <br/><br/>As I began to allow my crazy emotions to rule my day, I began to think about the incredible opportunity for me to be the best auntie, the best coach I  want to be, and most importantly, a woman with a message, a podcast host. <br/><br/>It has been my goal since I launched Casa DeConfidence to share the inspirational stories of others. I have desired to normalize that our stories are the bricks that pave the way to our dreams and living the life we want. <br/><br/>I hope that rather than comparing yourself, the stories from our guests inspire you, motivate you, and help you in your journey of confidence. <br/><br/>Yes, I know that missing someone you love is hard, and not having the child you wanted for the most is hard. However, we all still have <b>this day</b>, and there is always a wonderful blessing waiting to be found. I wish you a joyous day no matter what. <br/><br/>Join me today as I share about my mom.  Today I want to share about her with you. We all have a story. Please check out her journey and how it made me who I am today. <br/><br/><br/>If you want to read more about other phenomenal stories of incredible women, <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Confident-You-Simple-habits-imagined/dp/1737858401'>you can do so here. </a><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

He made a video on TikTok detailing the plan and asking TikTok users to help him find Marissa. </p><p>The video actually made it back to the right Marissa, and she found out that her friends weren&apos;t true friends at all. It stung, but Marissa turned it into an opportunity with a follow-up video. </p><p>There was a massive outpour of support from TikTok users all over the world, offering to be her friend even if it was just online. Marissa ran with it and hosted a picnic in the park with an open invitation to anyone who just wanted to hang out and make new friends. </p><p>What she thought would be a 20 person max event turned out to be 200, which sparked a movement. Today, Marissa is running the No More Lonely Friends movement, where she hosts these open picnics worldwide. Countless true friendships have been made, and she is just getting started.  </p><p><br/>Want to connect with Marissa?

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What do you do when your friends turn out not to be real friends? This is what happened to Marissa, our newest podcast guest. </p><p>The story goes that a young gentleman overheard a group of girls conspiring to exclude their friend, Marissa, from a birthday party. He made a video on TikTok detailing the plan and asking TikTok users to help him find Marissa. </p><p>The video actually made it back to the right Marissa, and she found out that her friends weren&apos;t true friends at all. It stung, but Marissa turned it into an opportunity with a follow-up video. </p><p>There was a massive outpour of support from TikTok users all over the world, offering to be her friend even if it was just online. Marissa ran with it and hosted a picnic in the park with an open invitation to anyone who just wanted to hang out and make new friends. </p><p>What she thought would be a 20 person max event turned out to be 200, which sparked a movement. Today, Marissa is running the No More Lonely Friends movement, where she hosts these open picnics worldwide. Countless true friendships have been made, and she is just getting started.  </p><p><br/>Want to connect with Marissa?

As I am sure you can imagine, managing diabetes as a young teenager was a struggle. However, Melissa didn&apos;t let that slow her down. She took the time to learn about her body and what it needs. After finding her balance, she wanted to share that with other busy working women.   <br/><br/></p><p>​So, Melissa created the S.H.R.E.D. Framework, a foundation of 5-Key Intentions, easy steps to build your core health strategy.  Practicing these steps consistently has helped her thrive through diabetic retinopathy, menopause, empty nest, and life&apos;s curve balls, all while balancing blood sugar.  Here is what she said, <br/><br/></p><p>​<em>“I have lived with insulin dependent diabetes (type 1) for 39 years. Through personally understanding the daily challenges of this chronic disease, I decided to specialize in this area to help other women achieve full health. I love to support clients in balancing their nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle routine, in this crazy journey called life!”<br/></em><br/></p><p>I encourage you to join us on this week&apos;s podcast episode to learn more about balancing health and happiness, whether you are challenged by diabetes or not. <b>Her words of wisdom and methods is suitable for all levels of health and wellness, diabetes or not. <br/></b><br/></p><p>P.S.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this week&apos;s episode of the podcast, Julie chats with Tara Geraghty. Over the last 23+ years, Tara has been building community and developing leaders. She is a sought-after Top 5 Ted Ex speaker, author, and media contributor to Good Morning America, MSNBC, and Reader&apos;s Digest to name a few. <br/><br/>With a degree in Theater and a background in Improv Tara always assumed she would pursue a career in the arts. However, after starting a direct sales business at 20 years old she found herself immersed in the world of personal development. <br/><br/>She quickly rose to the top of her field, earning numerous accolades, company awards, and soon began teaching, mentoring, and coaching women from around the country on how to build successful businesses. <br/><br/>Then in 2008, Tara found herself in the midst of a Domestic Violence Divorce. Just when she thought she hit rock bottom she found herself in an emergency room a short nine months later with her only child and a High-Risk Stage 4 Childhood Cancer<br/>diagnosis.<br/><br/>Tara chose to rise above her circumstances to face cancer with fun and found gratitude in the process. She made sure her daughter never stopped fighting with a “Jersey Girl” survivor spirit.   Tara now shares those powerful tools, tips, and secrets to help parents navigate the scary world that is childhood cancer.<br/><br/>In the last year, using her skills in community building, she and her sister Carolyn Co-Founded The Hey Girl You Can club in Clubhouse. <br/><br/>Hey Girl You Can is a global community of over 38,000 women. Tara says that the club is founded on two guiding principles. &quot;That every interaction with HGYC leaves a woman feeling elevated, uplifted, inspired, and believing a little bit more...that she can! And that our community is a platform to give a woman space for her voice to be heard and honored. We are a community where women can find support, encouragement, friendship, and be reminded how significant and valuable they really are.&quot;<br/><br/>This week on January 14th, 2022 we will be celebrating the Club&apos;s 1st Anniversary.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Adopting a word for the year instead of a New Year&apos;s resolution has been a practice I first started in 1989! Yes, I am that old. <br/><br/>I was 19 and was not keen on resolutions. They seem pointless to me then and now. I remember being at my friend&apos;s NYE party and deciding that I was going to make 1989 the Year of &quot;What the Hell.&quot; <br/><br/>For the remainder of the year, I used the mantra to try new experiences, take risks and live my life fully. This is the year I took lots of risks, learn lots of lessons, and grew a great deal. Since then, this practice evolved into what I have been doing since reading the book the Desire Map by Danielle LaPorte. <br/><br/>For the past few years, I have picked one word that defines how I want to live and the mantra for my life. <br/><br/>The last couple of years my words have been:<br/>2017 - Acceptance<br/>2018 - Adventure<br/>2019 - Amazing<br/>2020 - Power<br/>2021 -Relentless<br/><br/>In helping me pick my word for 2022, I reflected on what I could use more in my life, what I needed less of, and what characteristics I wanted to embody.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Adopting a word for the year instead of a New Year&apos;s resolution has been a practice I first started in 1989! Yes, I am that old. <br/><br/>I was 19 and was not keen on resolutions. They seem pointless to me then and now. I remember being at my friend&apos;s NYE party and deciding that I was going to make 1989 the Year of &quot;What the Hell.&quot; <br/><br/>For the remainder of the year, I used the mantra to try new experiences, take risks and live my life fully. This is the year I took lots of risks, learn lots of lessons, and grew a great deal. Since then, this practice evolved into what I have been doing since reading the book the Desire Map by Danielle LaPorte. <br/><br/>For the past few years, I have picked one word that defines how I want to live and the mantra for my life. <br/><br/>The last couple of years my words have been:<br/>2017 - Acceptance<br/>2018 - Adventure<br/>2019 - Amazing<br/>2020 - Power<br/>2021 -Relentless<br/><br/>In helping me pick my word for 2022, I reflected on what I could use more in my life, what I needed less of, and what characteristics I wanted to embody. I also visualized how I wanted to feel at the end of each day, week, month, and the entire 2022. <br/><br/>In this episode, I shared some of the conversations from the podcast that helped me find my word. I looked back at speaking to Corinne Crabtree my coach and NoBS Weighloss woman. She and I talked about how we want to hang on to identities that don&apos;t serve us and make us play small. <br/><br/>MaryAnn Alda trademarked the term &quot;aging shamelessly.&quot; also gave me some wise words about learning to ask for help, learning to share my story, because in sharing our experiences we will see ourselves there and learn more. <br/><br/>JoD Livingston taught me that we don&apos;t have to get an organ transplant like her to get a second chance.

In the last few months, we have had one American Idol, one Olympic Skater, One multiple Grammy winner, one Emmy winner. <br/><br/>We have had recipients of a liver transplant, authors, health advocates, and the founder of the NoBS Weightloss program. <br/><br/>Our guests have been so gracious to share their stories and journies. The founder of Unstoppable Moms taught us the importance of self-care. Our delightful friend on episode 3 told us what it was to battle addiction that lead her to be an exotic dancer in Alaska. <br/><br/>Many of our guests have dealt with overwhelm, anxiety and yet they found their voice and purpose. <br/><br/>Despite many challenges, guests also shared who inspired them most. Here is a hint, in most cases, it was their mom. It is a true honor to bring all of these episodes to you. Dan and I are super excited for what is to come and what we have in store for our listeners. <br/><br/>In the coming weeks, we bring you a cook, a baker, and a candlestick maker. We also will share our second annual Holiday Shopping list with a special guest. <br/><br/>We humbly ask that if you have been enjoying the podcast,  you give us a review, subscribe, and share with anyone who you feel will enjoy the show. We are delighted to have you as part of our family. <br/><br/>Here is to many more episodes to come. <br/>Also, make sure you are following Dan, our #handsomehothusband and producer.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In today’s episode Julie is coming in live from location in Tennessee. She has been attending the women’s successful living PJ retreat where she got to be a speaker and have a grand old time with other incredible women. <br/><br/>Julie Ask some of the incredible speakers at the retreat to join her for a quick conversation with Dan.<br/><br/>Check out the incredible speakers and Julie’s Instagram post. <br/><br/>Being a mom can be a challenge! Juggling work, life, and raising a family is a full-time job…more like three full-time jobs. Add on the fact that many assume that parenting is inherent…when it&apos;s actually confusing, scary, and downright difficult! Today, we are addressing that in our newest podcast guest, Dr. Kristen Cook. <br/><br/>Kristen is a pediatrician, mommy, wife, author, and a strong believer that parents can change the world.

Mothers carry the weight of their family’s physical and emotional needs every moment of every day. When women become mothers, their branding becomes who they are. It’s much more than a job title or responsibility; it is suddenly everything. Literally all the things.<br/><br/>But what if we could look at motherhood differently? What if motherhood wasn’t all that you are? That is where Rachael comes in! In her business, she shares simple, actionable ways to find joy and confidence in the chaos of our lives, including recipes, tips, and ways to conquer the hard stuff in motherhood. She believes our behaviors and relationships with ourselves, our food, and our communities mold the way our children view the world.<br/><br/>We love Rachael&apos;s work because it is not meant to be daunting, or another pressure added to our plates. As Rachael says, “It is a powerful privilege to create the future.

On our last episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Jeff McMahon, ACM Award-nominated keyboardist and longtime touring and recording partner with Tim McGraw! It was from him that we learned about Maddye Trew!<br/><br/>Maddye has recently hit the music scene, wowing everyone with her sparkly and spunky attitude and incredible country singing. Jeff, who is now a devoted member of Maddye’s team, says “I love, LOVE her singin’. She’s so good, so soulful … and so real, which is refreshing. She knows who she is and what music she wants to make, and it was a thrill to play on this track with her.”<br/><br/>Coming on the heels of her debut release, “Only Sometimes,” the attention-getting featured performance of her cover of Patty Loveless’ “Chains” with Country Rebel, and recent opportunities to perform alongside established artists including Darryl Worley, Wade Hayes, and Jim Brown, the light is starting to shine on Maddye and it’s only getting brighter! AND she just released “That’s The Lonely Talkin’,&quot; which is available on all platforms! You can even see it on YouTube!<br/><br/>For a bit of info Maddye, was born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee, and began performing at a very young age. She sang “Walkin’ After Midnight” at the historic Strand Theatre at the age of ten, took on numerous roles in a variety of high school theater and musical productions while a student at Tipton Rosemark Academy, and eventually headed to Nashville to earn her Bachelor of Arts degree in commercial music from Belmont University. Since graduating, Trew has worked to hone her skills as a singer-songwriter and celebrated her first release, “Only Sometimes,” in December of 2020.<br/><br/>Since then, Maddye has been invited to share her songs at the historic Listening Room as well as other Nashville hotspots including The Local, Belcourt Taps, the Moxy Nashville, and Honeytree Meadery. Trew has also served as an opening act at the legendary Nashville Palace, and earlier this summer, she had the opportunity to join several artists including headliner Trace Adkins for the celebrated Memorial Day Mulefest concert event in Columbia, TN.<br/><br/>Maddye has a bright future ahead of her, and we hope that you will join us on this Casa DeConfidence Podcast episode and welcome Maddye with open arms!<br/><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/maddyetrew/'>https://www.instagram.com/maddyetrew/</a> <br/> <a href='https://www.facebook.com/maddyetrew'>https://www.facebook.com/maddyetrew</a> <br/> <a href='https://twitter.com/maddyetrew'>https://twitter.com/maddyetrew</a> <br/><a href='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNfClPHY-5L7d-mXMWRZdqg'>https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNfClPHY-5L7d-mXMWRZdqg</a> <br/> <a href='https://www.maddyetrew.com/'>https://www.maddyetrew.com/</a> <br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Women United is a global, growing force of 70,000+ women dedicated to creating a world of opportunity— for everyone. As part of WU, I have participated as a planning committee member for our signature event every year. This year is the 10th anniversary of the event and I was honored to be asked to Co-Chair the event. I did not hesitate and jumped right in. COVID-19 has affected us all. My local United Way has been working alongside community partners to respond to the consequences that the ongoing pandemic is having on members of our community, particularly those already walking a financial tightrope. Today I am hosting my Co-Chair Isabela Danielsen and our Key Note Speaker Lucinda Cross. During our conversation, these women and I discuss why it matters to us to impact this world and how our journey as dynamic women has lead us to support other women to be their best and be afforded opportunities that can be life-changing. I love coming together with girlfriends to talk about confidence, what inspires us and how we can create a legacy in the world.<br/><br/><a href='https://one.bidpal.net/pop10th/welcome'>https://one.bidpal.net/pop10th/welcome</a><br/><br/><a href='https://unitedwayinc.org/power-of-the-purse/'>https://unitedwayinc.org/power-of-the-purse</a><br/><br/><a href='https://activateyourvisionshop.com/products/thebigask'>https://activateyourvisionshop.com/products/thebigask</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.youtube.com/lucindacross'>https://www.youtube.com/lucindacross</a><br/><br/></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p> Happy Mother&apos;s Day to all the moms and mother figures in this world.<br/><br/> It was a sleepless night when I sat up in bed, and against my better judgment, I reached for my phone and began scrolling TikTok. I stumbled on a video of a woman saying, “Pain is the touchstone of spiritual growth.&quot; This saying got me… she - got - me. At this moment, I had been battling the effects of SADD. <a href='https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/seasonal-affective-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20364651'>Seasonal Affective Disorder Depression</a>. Over the years, I have been affected by this from time to time. It seemed like this past winter, the grips of this disorder kept pulling me down.Soon I was captivated by the positivity of this delightful woman. She was raw, open, and willing to share her story. She said that “pain is the touchstone to spiritual growth.” Tracy reminded me that to become stronger, I needed to go through feeling the feels. She reminded me gratitude is a touchpoint. Movement is key to helping your mind come through the fog. The road to putting SADD behind me is one step at a time. It is also about knowing that I needed to get help and prioritize MY well-being. I was elated to have the opportunity to speak with Tracy Kessler and share her success story with you!  Our conversation centers on the power of healing that comes from surrendering. We talked about the obstacles that we encounter in life that help us work on the “character defects” plaguing us. Tracy is open and honest about the tragedy in her life that leads her to her current life at the beach.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Happy Mother&apos;s Day to all the moms and mother figures in this world.<br/><br/> It was a sleepless night when I sat up in bed, and against my better judgment, I reached for my phone and began scrolling TikTok. I stumbled on a video of a woman saying, “Pain is the touchstone of spiritual growth.&quot; This saying got me… she - got - me. At this moment, I had been battling the effects of SADD. <a href='https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/seasonal-affective-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20364651'>Seasonal Affective Disorder Depression</a>. Over the years, I have been affected by this from time to time. It seemed like this past winter, the grips of this disorder kept pulling me down.Soon I was captivated by the positivity of this delightful woman. She was raw, open, and willing to share her story. She said that “pain is the touchstone to spiritual growth.” Tracy reminded me that to become stronger, I needed to go through feeling the feels. She reminded me gratitude is a touchpoint. Movement is key to helping your mind come through the fog. The road to putting SADD behind me is one step at a time. It is also about knowing that I needed to get help and prioritize MY well-being. I was elated to have the opportunity to speak with Tracy Kessler and share her success story with you!  Our conversation centers on the power of healing that comes from surrendering. We talked about the obstacles that we encounter in life that help us work on the “character defects” plaguing us. Tracy is open and honest about the tragedy in her life that leads her to her current life at the beach. She knows that we are all in the process of becoming what God wants us to be.  This episode is special to me because I found many commonalities in Tracy&apos;s story and my own. She is a New Yorker with a golden tender heart. Even with being busy running two companies, Tracy is an advocate for making the world a better place. She founded the “Kindness Grows Here” movement to enlighten the world that success can be achieved in parallel with kindness and that “Nice guys do NOT finish last.&quot;<br/><br/>Want to connect with Tracy?<br/><br/>Join her on these ClubHouse Rooms:<br/> Midweek Pep Talk; Wednesdays 10:30am EST<br/> Event Bites; Wednesdays 11:30amEST<br/> Sisterhood of the Traveling CH; Thursday 11amEST<br/> High-Performance Habits; Thursday 6pmEST (P.s.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Happy Birthday to Casa DeConfidence! Welcome to a special episode of the Casa DeConfidence Podcast. On today&apos;s show, we celebrate our 1st Birthday. Today we look back at our first year as a podcast. We have had some incredible guests join us at our Casa DeConfidence. Many of these individuals have shared their unique journeys with us. We have learned so much from our guest: Valerie Hager taught us the concept of being &quot;believing mirrors&quot; for one another. This concept is from the book Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype. From Katie Jeffcoat, we learned about Intentional Margins®, she is still running the coziest coffee shop on the internet, and  I love that she is my friend IRL now. Most of our guests have shared their moms have been the biggest inspiration in their life. I love hearing that the most demanding job on earth of being a mom continues to impact so many lives. Speaking of MOMs, Dr. Laura Jagget continues to help others by teaching them &apos;How to Life&apos; in her Mommanars on her Podcast and Youtube channel. Some of our guests have become dear friends. Mindy and the Passionistas, Nancy, and Amy.  Melissa Myers, a great supporter of the show, and Claudia Taboada and Michelle Cunningham have also written new books since being on the show. During this year, we hosted some of my mentors, like Corinne Crabtree from the NoBS Weightloss Program and Lauren D&apos;Angelo, who helped me get certified as a yoga teacher. During this episode, we also made a few major announcements: We have officially launched a standalone website for the podcast. <br/><br/>You can now find all things Casa DeConfidence at<a href='http://casadeconfidencepod.com/'>CasaDeConfidencePod.com</a><br/><br/>We are also launching a unique membership site just for Casa Insiders. This membership will bring you exclusive content like more episodes of Peaceful You, exclusive extended interviews with our guest, &quot;Ask Julie and Dan,&quot; Live episodes, and more. Your invitation to join us will be coming to your inbox soon. Lastly, we want to THANK YOU for being a loyal listener and helping us make this year one of the most memorable ones in our lives.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Before sharing the stage with today&apos;s most influential names like Russell Brunson, Tom Bilyeu, and Les Brown, Adrian found himself homeless and struggling to stay afloat. During our conversation, Adrian opened up about his troubled childhood. His life story could easily be a made for the big screen movie. He overcame childhood trauma, abuse, and homelessness. As a young man, Adrian fought his way out of a cycle of poverty and addiction. He used the seeds of faith planted in him by his grandmother to help guide him away from dark paths and find the road to success.  I was honored that during our interview, he shared something deeply personal that he said he had not shared anywhere else. Adrian shared his story so candidly because he knows that owning our past is the first step in healing and breaking the hold it has on our present and our future. Early in his career, Adrian&apos;s hunger to be the best led him to be mentored by more than four industry-leading titans. A decade later, his career has evolved from graphic artist and printer to a digital marketing trainer, coach, and speaker. Now, Adrian is a wildly successful and influential businessman. He has a wife and daughter he adores, but most importantly, he is committed to mentoring at-risk youth.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>It was late one night, and I could not sleep. They say that you should not reach for the phone because your device&apos;s blue light will keep you up. Despite knowing this, I grabbed my phone and opened TikTok.<br/>As I mindlessly scrolled through cleaning videos, cute puppies, and people pointing at words on their screen as they danced, my #foryoupage stumbled across a video from this young woman.<br/>When I first went to her website, I was captivated by this quote: “I think cheese and churros deserve their own food groups and La Croix, champagne, and coffee are basically the only liquids I need to survive.”<br/>I have found a kindred spirit. <br/>Callie Richards is a Southern California-based body-positive fashion and travel blogger who helps women discover style and travel that FITS their bodies and their lifestyles so they can live their best, most authentic lives! She test and then shares the products and experiences that respect diversity and inclusiveness so that you can shop and travel with confidence without all the research!<br/>I knew that her infectious positive attitude was something that I wanted to share with my listeners and the world.<br/>My initial instinct was not wrong. I may sound like an old lady saying this, but it is true. I wish that I had as much confidence, wisdom, and self-love as this incredible young woman at her age.<br/>Callie loves to travel, is devoted to her family, and her favorite color is glitter and her second favorite is pink. LOVE HER!<br/>I know that after you listen to this interview, you will fall in love with her as much as I have.<br/>I continue to be on the road to self-love, and this conversation has allowed me to continue to embrace myself at any size. It also reminded me that we should not wait to be our future selves, to love ourselves. We need to learn to love who we now. This is how we become a better version of ourselves in the future.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Happy Valentine&apos;s Day Welcome to this week&apos;s episode of the Casa DeConfidence Podcast! This week we had the pleasure of speaking with husband and wife duo, Courtney and Jennifer James! I recently read a quote from Courtney that said “Remember ... Follow your dreams, they know the way.” This simple quote can give a  glimpse at who our guests are. For a quick rundown on this epic pair, Courtney is an award-winning filmmaker; a writer, director, and producer. He has spent his career working on feature films, broadcast television, and in the indie film world. He has been writing stories, building content, and directing productions for 25 years and knows a thing or two about how to connect with one&apos;s audience. His latest project The Man from Toronto, featuring Kevin Hart, Woody Harrelson, Kaley Cuoco is scheduled to release in September 2021. Jennifer is a former Fortune 500 exec turned Mindful business coach. Like me, she spent many years in the corporate world. As a sought-after team leader and brand strategist, she has spent 20+ years transforming companies and their leadership including Marvel, Walmart, Hasbro, Skechers, Cott, and Loblaws. But now, she has left the hustle and bustle of corporate life behind to strike her own path with her hubby! Together they have created the Art of Mindful Storytelling, a program to help mindful entrepreneurs master their storytelling, create connections and skyrocket their brand. <br/><br/>You can learn more about Jennifer and Courtney James at:<br/><br/><a href='https://theartofmindfulstorytelling.com/'>The Art of Mindful Storytelling</a> <br/><a href='https://doublejlifestyle.com/'>Double J Lifestyle</a> <br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/doublejlifestyle/'>Instagram</a><br/> <a href='https://www.facebook.com/jenhope.james/'>Facebook</a><br/><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenjames1/'>LinkedIn</a><br/><a href='https://filmfreeway.com/courtneyjames'>Courtney James</a><br/><a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUg6myGG3eE'>Check out an example of Deep House music we discussed.</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Leveraging her materials engineering expertise, she solved technical challenges, provided failure investigation, and developed innovative technologies for the company’s aerospace and building industries. She has 11 technical publications to her credit, including the <em>Applied Physics Letters</em>, the <em>Journal of Materials Science</em>, the <em>Journal of the American Ceramic Society</em>, and <em>Additive Manufacturing</em>, and holds two U.S. patents. <br/><b>Trailblazer</b> As a self-proclaimed STEMinist, an active member of SWE, and a first-generation university student, Dr. Garofano is driven to empower and inspire women to pursue careers in engineering by sharing her journey. During her graduate studies, she was appointed education and outreach coordinator for the Center for Research on Interface Structures and Phenomena, a National Science Foundation-funded Materials Research Science and Engineering Center at Southern Connecticut State University, and Yale, broadening her reach in STEM advocacy. Dr. Garofano is also a community leader, past Chair of United Way Women United®, and presently a board director for the Girl Scouts of Connecticut, serving on the diversity, equity and inclusion committee. She is greatly involved in her local community, where she attends career fairs, outreach events to promote STEM literacy, and conferences to speak as an advocate for women in STEM, serving as a role model for the young women in attendance.<br/><b>Mentor,</b> She has been named one of Connecticut’s Women of Innovation® twice. First, as the recipient of the Collegian Innovation and Leadership Award in 2011 and, most recently, as a finalist in the Large Business Innovation and Leadership category for 2020. She was also named to the 2013 and 2015 40 Under 40 lists by Connecticut Magazine and Hartford Business Journal, respectively, for professional excellence and leadership. She was recognized as the 2018 The Future is NOW awardee by the Connecticut Women’s Education and Legal Fund for her work to advance women and girls in STEM. Most recently, Dr. Garofano was awarded the 2020 Petit Family Foundation Women in Science Leadership Award, which “recognizes a woman working in STEM who is a leader in her field, and who makes a significant effort to support other women and encourage girls’ interests in STEM.” She also is a recipient of the 2020 Spark Award for the Society of Women Engineers – her first national recognition – “for fostering long-term mentorship grounded in mutual empowerment; and for positivity and motivational drive that spurs others, especially women, to pursue success on their own terms.”<br/><b>Education </b>Dr. Garofano earned her B.S. in physics with honors from Southern Connecticut State University, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in materials science and engineering from the University of Connecticut.

Rishelle, a professional graphic designer, and Jessica, a work-at-home mother of three-year-old twins, strip the greeting card concept down to first principles; no sequins, glitter, or lace, just well-placed words that speak to real human sentiments. dapple + grey greeting cards are designed and packaged in Glastonbury, Connecticut, by two sisters with a passion for clean lines and the simple power of connection through the written word. When we were kids, our mom used to sing us a song, “All the Pretty Little Horses”. There’s a line that says “Dapples, grey”, but we sang it as “dapple and grey”. We wanted a name that meant something to us, and as I (Rishelle) was thinking about what it could be, I thought about our childhood and this came to mind. When I mentioned it to my sister, we both knew that it was right.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Stephanie was born with Cystic Fibrosis, a genetic disease that primarily leads to irreparable damage to the lungs. In spite of the considerable challenges, Stephanie continued her successful career as a designer all while being a devoted wife and loving mother. Unfortunately, CF started to have a greater impact on her life, forcing her to leave her career so that she could focus on her health. Through much introspection and painful self-acceptance, Stephanie made the courageous decision to begin sharing her story, reaching thousands through her platform, and has made profoundly impactful changes in the lives of others living with CF. After a battle with unrelenting pneumonia in 2019, Stephanie learned of a new &quot;miracle medicine&quot; that became available in the US. Unfortunately, this drug is not available in Canada, but this did not deter Stephanie. Stephanie was interviewed by local and national news stations; she reached out to her local members of government and even wrote to each executive of the pharmaceutical company. All that effort paid off when she learned that she was granted Compassionate Care by the manufacturer in January 2020, literally saving her life. Through unwavering faith and tireless effort, Stephanie was able to make her dreams a reality.</p><p>After this personal victory, Stephanie continued her advocacy work to help other CF patients fight for their right to breathe. Together with 3 CF patients that were fighting for their lives and the parent of a CF patient, Stephanie co-founded the volunteer advocacy group called CF Get Loud. The team’s mission is to elevate patients&apos; stories; empowering them to use their voices and educate families on the barriers that are blocking the accessibility of innovative medicine. Today, the movement has over 4300 members and is growing. Together, they continue to fight to save the lives of 4400 Canadians.<br/><br/><a href='https://linktr.ee/rosielifewithgrey'>https://linktr.ee/rosielifewithgrey</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/rosielifewithgrey/'>https://www.instagram.com/rosielifewithgrey/</a><br/><br/><a href='https://cysticfibrosisnewstoday.com/2020/11/13/trikafta-expected-soon-up-for-health-canada-approval-cyctic-fibrosis-canada-says/'>https://cysticfibrosisnewstoday.com/2020/11/13/trikafta-expected-soon-up-for-health-canada-approval-cyctic-fibrosis-canada-says/</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

Through unwavering faith and tireless effort, Stephanie was able to make her dreams a reality.</p><p>After this personal victory, Stephanie continued her advocacy work to help other CF patients fight for their right to breathe. Together with 3 CF patients that were fighting for their lives and the parent of a CF patient, Stephanie co-founded the volunteer advocacy group called CF Get Loud. The team’s mission is to elevate patients&apos; stories; empowering them to use their voices and educate families on the barriers that are blocking the accessibility of innovative medicine. Today, the movement has over 4300 members and is growing. Together, they continue to fight to save the lives of 4400 Canadians.<br/><br/><a href='https://linktr.ee/rosielifewithgrey'>https://linktr.ee/rosielifewithgrey</a><br/><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/rosielifewithgrey/'>https://www.instagram.com/rosielifewithgrey/</a><br/><br/><a href='https://cysticfibrosisnewstoday.com/2020/11/13/trikafta-expected-soon-up-for-health-canada-approval-cyctic-fibrosis-canada-says/'>https://cysticfibrosisnewstoday.com/2020/11/13/trikafta-expected-soon-up-for-health-canada-approval-cyctic-fibrosis-canada-says/</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

She works in the dentistry field, makes lip gloss, and is a recent graduate of Reflexology school. Her journey started in the spring of 2018. At this time, she was overweight because she self-soothed with comfort food. It was her defense mechanism that she believed could combat the heartache of multiple miscarriages. She had not yet learned how to recognize and handle her emotions, which resulted in consistent overeating. She began the No BS Woman&apos;s Journey and is well on her way to achieving her goal of losing 100 pounds! WOW! Her journey is forever evolving as she learns to let go of negative self-imagery and better handle her emotions.<br/><br/> Today, Tracy is the proud owner of Lewy Lew Collection, a magnificent lip gloss brand!

    <description><![CDATA[<p>I have heard it say that people come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. Our guest this week is someone who I first met in my 20&apos;s. Over 18 years later, she is Chief Operation Officer for <a href='https://www.ourhousenj.org/'>Our House Inc. </a>This phenomenal organization has a mission to provide healthy and stimulating environments for people with developmental and other disabilities by providing community residences, employment opportunities, social programs, and other supports designed to help them achieve their full potential for living meaningful and productive lives. Natalie is currently running for office!!! She aims at making an impact in the lives of students in the Ocean Township School District. As a candidate for the Ocean Township Board of Education! she was elected to and served a 1-year term for 2019. This year, she is running for a full 3-year term.Natalie spoke with us candidly about her journey with infertility. I appreciate her openness and honesty. If more women shared the difficulties they encountered in life, we would be less insecure about the difficult roads we sometimes encounter in our lives. These difficult journeys make us feel alone, and we tend to compare and despair, thinking we are the only ones struggling with these challenges. Natalie lives with her handsome husband, Mark, and her beautiful children.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi Friend, <br/>Establishing a mindfulness and meditation practice has been a gift in my life. It is almost one year since I became a Certified Yoga and mindfulness teacher. <br/>My mindfulness practice allows me to grow in self-acceptance and self-compassion. I am working on being less judgmental of myself and more of a coach for myself. <br/>Earlier this year, I decided that to grow fully as an individual and coach, I needed to deepen my knowledge as a Mindfulness teacher and Holistic Coach. For this reason, I decided to pursue additional certification as a Mindfulness Life Coach. <br/>My goal is to continue to learn to handle mental chatter and focus on the present moment.<br/>I have created a 21-day “Peaceful You” Course. <br/>I aim to help you learn how also to incorporate mindfulness and meditation into your daily habits.  <br/>If you are tired of being stressed out, frustrated, unable to stop negative thinking, and ready to live fully aware, awake, and alive, I invite you to take the 21 Day Mindfulness, Peaceful You Course I will be leading. <br/>All you have to do is grab the workbook by going to GoConfidentlyCoaching.com.<br/><br/>Hit the Resources Tab, and click on the Peaceful you.<br/><br/>or click here<br/><br/>https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/copy-of-self-carehabits-1<br/><br/>In addition to the workbook, you will get a lesson for the day, and access a meditation design to correspond to the day’s lesson. You will also get access to 3 live calls with me during August 2020, where I answer your questions and celebrate your success in this journey. <br/><br/>If you are joining after August… GOOD news, the content is still available for you. Just go to GoConfidentlyCoaching.com and get the book.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi Friend, <br/>Establishing a mindfulness and meditation practice has been a gift in my life.

I am working on being less judgmental of myself and more of a coach for myself. <br/>Earlier this year, I decided that to grow fully as an individual and coach, I needed to deepen my knowledge as a Mindfulness teacher and Holistic Coach. For this reason, I decided to pursue additional certification as a Mindfulness Life Coach. <br/>My goal is to continue to learn to handle mental chatter and focus on the present moment.<br/>I have created a 21-day “Peaceful You” Course. <br/>I aim to help you learn how also to incorporate mindfulness and meditation into your daily habits.  <br/>If you are tired of being stressed out, frustrated, unable to stop negative thinking, and ready to live fully aware, awake, and alive, I invite you to take the 21 Day Mindfulness, Peaceful You Course I will be leading. <br/>All you have to do is grab the workbook by going to GoConfidentlyCoaching.com.<br/><br/>Hit the Resources Tab, and click on the Peaceful you.<br/><br/>or click here<br/><br/>https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/copy-of-self-carehabits-1<br/><br/>In addition to the workbook, you will get a lesson for the day, and access a meditation design to correspond to the day’s lesson. You will also get access to 3 live calls with me during August 2020, where I answer your questions and celebrate your success in this journey. <br/><br/>If you are joining after August… GOOD news, the content is still available for you.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi Friend, <br/>Establishing a mindfulness and meditation practice has been a gift in my life. It is almost one year since I became a Certified Yoga and mindfulness teacher. <br/>My mindfulness practice allows me to grow in self-acceptance and self-compassion. I am working on being less judgmental of myself and more of a coach for myself. <br/>Earlier this year, I decided that to grow fully as an individual and coach, I needed to deepen my knowledge as a Mindfulness teacher and Holistic Coach. For this reason, I decided to pursue additional certification as a Mindfulness Life Coach. <br/>My goal is to continue to learn to handle mental chatter and focus on the present moment.<br/>I have created a 21-day “Peaceful You” Course. <br/>I aim to help you learn how also to incorporate mindfulness and meditation into your daily habits.  <br/>If you are tired of being stressed out, frustrated, unable to stop negative thinking, and ready to live fully aware, awake, and alive, I invite you to take the 21 Day Mindfulness, Peaceful You Course I will be leading. <br/>All you have to do is grab the workbook by going to GoConfidentlyCoaching.com.<br/><br/>Hit the Resources Tab, and click on the Peaceful you.<br/><br/>or click here<br/><br/>https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/copy-of-self-carehabits-1<br/><br/>In addition to the workbook, you will get a lesson for the day, and access a meditation design to correspond to the day’s lesson. You will also get access to 3 live calls with me during August 2020, where I answer your questions and celebrate your success in this journey. <br/><br/>If you are joining after August… GOOD news, the content is still available for you. Just go to GoConfidentlyCoaching.com and get the book. Details will follow after. </p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1035313/fan_mail/new">I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Friend, <br/>Establishing a mindfulness and meditation practice has been a gift in my life. It is almost one year since I became a Certified Yoga and mindfulness teacher. <br/>My mindfulness practice allows me to grow in self-acceptance and self-compassion.

    <description><![CDATA[<p><br/>Hi Friend, <br/>Establishing a mindfulness and meditation practice has been a gift in my life. It is almost one year since I became a Certified Yoga and mindfulness teacher. <br/>My mindfulness practice allows me to grow in self-acceptance and self-compassion. I am working on being less judgmental of myself and more of a coach for myself. <br/>Earlier this year, I decided that to grow fully as an individual and coach, I needed to deepen my knowledge as a Mindfulness teacher and Holistic Coach. For this reason, I decided to pursue additional certification as a Mindfulness Life Coach. <br/>My goal is to continue to learn to handle mental chatter and focus on the present moment.<br/>I have created a 21-day “Peaceful You” Course. <br/>I aim to help you learn how also to incorporate mindfulness and meditation into your daily habits.  <br/>If you are tired of being stressed out, frustrated, unable to stop negative thinking, and ready to live fully aware, awake, and alive, I invite you to take the 21 Day Mindfulness, Peaceful You Course I will be leading. <br/>All you have to do is grab the workbook by going to GoConfidentlyCoaching.com.<br/><br/>Hit the Resources Tab, and click on the Peaceful you.<br/><br/>or click here<br/><br/>https://www.goconfidentlycoaching.com/copy-of-self-carehabits-1<br/><br/>In addition to the workbook, you will get a lesson for the day, and access a meditation design to correspond to the day’s lesson. You will also get access to 3 live calls with me during August 2020, where I answer your questions and celebrate your success in this journey. <br/><br/>If you are joining after August… GOOD news, the content is still available for you. Just go to GoConfidentlyCoaching.com and get the book.

If I had to describe her, it would be passionate and dedicated. Yolanda’s passion for educating children and inspiring them to achieve was the driving force behind her decision to develop <a href='https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.teamtutor.com%2F'>Team Tutor</a>. An expert in her field, She spent more than ten years with the School District of Philadelphia. During her tenure with the Philadelphia School District, Yolanda was first exposed to the wide-spread need for accessible one-on-one instruction. With no assistance in sight, she decided that she would become the solution by matching students with tutors who could truly address each child’s individual needs. Yolanda’s mission is to offer the highest quality of educational instruction in an accessible manner. She believes all children can learn and should be given the opportunity for academic success. Though she may not be currently teaching in the traditional classroom setting, her goal is to help one child at a time through her company Team Tutor. Yolanda is a mom and has built a successful organization. Her husband now works with her as the companies CFO, and they are both enjoying the benefits of enjoying their business and being present for their children full-time. Yolanda LOVES <a href='https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.onepeloton.com%2F'>Peleton, </a>and she is a runner. Her daughters play basketball, and I love watching them grow up through the years since I met her.

Katelyn McCraken. Like me, Katelyn is a member of the</b><a href='https://www.phit-n-phat.com/'><b> #noBSweighloss</b></a><b> program from Corinne Crabtree. Like me, during her weight loss journey, she was looking for accountability. Katelyn and I, along with nine came together. We became the group known as the lemons. The group&apos;s purpose is to check in daily and be held accountable for doing the things you said you would as they relate to our weight loss journey.  </b></p><p><b>Over the 22 months we have been in our group, we have become a tight-knit group of ladies who come from all walks of life and backgrounds. We encourage and support each other. We challenge each other and, at times, call out the BS we come up with and try to believe.  </b></p><p><b>Being accountable to others is not easy. We first have to be accountable to ourselves. Second, we must learn to be vulnerable and know when to ask for help. Third, we must use grace to hear the things we may not want to hear.  </b></p><p><b>The #lemonmafia has proven to be a group that can circle the wagons around their members. Katelyn, the young one, as we called her, has grown to be the BOLD one. She is a marathoner, a crafty lady thoughtful friend, and mom to two boys. She married her college sweetheart and is proving by her life, that although you may not always feel confident, you can write the rules for your life, seek to have more, and move ahead despite the uncertainty.  </b></p><p><b>Katelyn is a prime example of tenacity, boldness, and ingenuity. She started a cottage baking business in her home. Katelyn began this side hustle to make a few extra dollars to pay off her son&apos;s hospital bills, and maybe in the distant future have enough money to put a down payment in her dream farmhouse. After paying the hefty hospital bill with the profits from her </b><a href='https://www.facebook.com/marigoldmacarons/'><b>Marigold Macaron</b></a><b> business, she is getting closer than ever.  </b></p><p><b>One of the things I love about this woman is how she keeps growing and striving for excellence. She has perfected the art of Macaron baking. She does this while caring for &quot;littles.&quot; She makes her business work for her. She offers a monthly selection of carefully crafted flavors and themed macarons. The key here is that she sells out within minutes of opening up the order for the month.  </b></p><p><b>She is defining her life and designing a business that works for her. Check out this conversation and find how you can work towards your dream and be present to those you love. It takes a bit of commitment, hard work, and a vision.  </b></p><p><b>Make sure you check out Katelyn and Marigold Macaron on.
