Life is - with Neil and Veronica

Welcome back! We have missed being here and having our chats. With a calendar year changing over we discuss how focusing on YOU and making updates to the great you that you already are is a great mindset to have & how the word new is not what we want to use.

No matter the season or chapter we find ourselves currently in. No matter how amazing or hard it is. In the end not skipping chapters will be what is best to help you grow and move onto the next chapter. YouTube: https://youtu.be/B67qgSz474I Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lifeis.podcast

We have said before but it is worth repeating. Words matter And when we choose them with intent they can carry us through our day, a season and even an entire year. Join us as Veronica and Neil choose their word for 2024 and discuss the meaning behind them. YouTube: https://youtu.be/ipPtAdZUOHk Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lifeis.podcast

Big or small. Temporary or permanent. Sure or unsure and anywhere in between. Adjustments are a daily occurrence in life and when things that are not in our control come around, these adjustments we choose are part of the control we do have. Embracing, owning and learning from them is what we most recently learned from our life experiences. YouTube: https://youtu.be/ymQb3wpa5Ds Linktree: https://l...

When we think about a plate of food it can represent a number of different things when we look at what we take on in our lives. It can represent a boundary for what you can do or not but it can also start to be how you take control of what YOU add or don't add into your life. Unapologetically of course. Veronica and I take the time to discuss a quote and this analogy while also weaving in some act...

Sometimes we can get our thoughts and feelings all mixed up especially when we are going through negative feelings. But sorting our feelings from our thoughts and setting our thoughts on the right track can propel our feelings back to an ideal state.

When we look at self-confidence at where it comes from. It's not from our accomplishments, our professional designation or anything external. It actually comes from all the promises that we keep to ourselves. And when we can stack one by one these promises we keep, than our true confidence begins to shine.

It is something that we cannot avoid in life but we can change how we feel & think about it. When we focus on making decision for us we will inevitably disappoint someone and that is ok. If you can honestly answer that you did your best with the time that you have, then you can let the disappointment of others go. While this is easier said then done just know that this is a process and you can...

Sometime we can't see the progress we are making from our daily actions just like each strike on a piñata. Until that one time, that one more try that breaks the whole thing open and the reward comes flying out for you and all your supporters to enjoy. So keep going, keep consistent and one day that "one more try" will make all the difference. YouTube: https://youtu.be/TS0qdDCkEkQ Linktree: https:...

Inside or outside. Within yourself or within someone else. Beauty has so many different facets and when we are able to admire the beautiful qualities we bring into this world, everyone benefits from it. YouTube: https://youtu.be/LA9ugO4V4nQ Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lifeis.podcast

When we observe and not watch our world around us, our gratitude and fulfillment will naturally become greater. It seems like such a simple change but has such a profound impact on our happiness. YouTube: https://youtu.be/NT5cN0P0iXY Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lifeis.podcast

Whether it is throughout your day, daily, weekly or any other length of time, taking the time to refuel is a necessary and important part of looking after ourselves. Whatever it is that you need, whatever it is that fills you up, be sure to refuel yourself to continue to move forward and even propel yourself ahead. Because you are important and you need it.

Depending on WHERE you are and WHO you are with our value can feel different. When we know what we are worth and which person, place or thing makes us feel that value, it is such an amazing thing. So be sure to know your worth and seek those who value you that in you! YouTube: https://youtu.be/E6JOfO4jQag Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lifeis.podcast

When we write our own story, we are also able to make changes for the next page or chapter. And if we happen to have set a precedent in the past, we also have permission to change that at any point. YouTube: https://youtu.be/nntijEUuu1I Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lifeis.podcast

Being bold isn't a bad thing. In fact when we are bold enough to take action, make a change or even speak up, it allows us to grow and learn who we are and what we want for ourselves. YouTube: https://youtu.be/rP7ka4Lx7yM Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lifeis.podcast

Spring time brings the season of change and fresh beginnings and along with it the thought of clearing space. Whether it is your closet or your to do list, when we clear out the things we no longer need it lifts a weight off of us we didn't know was there.

From our personal experience, getting stuck in our thoughts and spiraling into thinking that our decision is all or nothing can have an impact on our personal mental well being. When we begin to isolate a decision or event and realize that all the other the dominos aren't going to tumble over then we can begin to end the spiral.

This amazing thing called life and the time we have, is spent most with this one person....YOU! And so when it comes to what you do, what you choose or what fills your cup the only person that matters in the end is you, because life is yours and no one else's.

Big, small or in-between we are all faced with decisions daily. And the outcome of these should be separated from what we made as a good decision for us at the time.
