Becoming a mother creates a huge change in our lives. Sometimes we’re just caught off guard, and at one point we don’t even recognize ourselves anymore... This is exactly what happened to Erin Girouard. She went through postpartum anxiety with her first pregnancy and got pregnant during the global pandemic. In both events Erin lost herself to motherhood. Until one day she decided to take control,...

As mothers, we have the tendency to give all that we are to our kids and our husbands. In the process, if not less there’s none left for us. That is how selfless we are.    But..this shouldn’t be the case.    We often think that taking care of ourselves is a selfish thing, it’s not. This is the mentality we should correct, the excuse we leave behind.   Head over to olgasway.com for full show notes...

I cannot tell you how many times the conversations in my coaching groups are around becoming confident. As a life coach, sometimes people put me on a pedestal and think I don’t know what it's like to not be confident. But the opposite is true.

Is codependency healthy or is it detrimental in a relationship?

Learning to cope with difficult people is key, as we're going to encounter many of those people at some point in our lives. In fact, I bet that you yourself have been a difficult person at some point in somebody's life, it's just nature.  A very common suggestion is to cut difficult people out of your life, but I think that's not always realistic. You can't avoid everybody who you find difficult....

Today's discussion focuses on body image, and we will get into what is the secret to a positive body image, and acceptance.  Self-criticism of one's body is so common among women as if we should be sending the message to ourselves.

As empaths themselves, Olga and Simi Botic talk in this episode about what it is like to feel all feelings and in such an exaggerated way. Being an empath can sometimes feel like a curse: we feel too much, we care too much, we don’t seem to be able to disconnect frequently enough, and we tend to ignore our beautiful selves all too often. How can I possibly feel less? This is a question many of Olg...
