The Lively Show

Today’s Lively Show we are talking about how to achieve flow in your life - even if you have two kids (and a third on the way), a house, a business, 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a husband! Lively Show listener and Life With Intention Online member, Cass McCrory, has a business strategy consultancy (Capra Strategy) and has a lot on her plate with her growing family. So when I first started talking about flo...

Today on The Lively Show, we’re diving into an area that has been popping up for me personally over the summer (and in particular this past week) which many can relate to, as well. We’re going deep into our motivations to a) have the courage to ask (and follow) our intuition for guidance, and b) how to follow our intuition and be peaceful with its guidance/unanswered questions (aka: what I was not...

Today’s Lively Show topic is diving into Forcing things in our lives vs. Flowing, which we’ve been discussing in recent weeks, along with Forcing’s busy and uncertain cousin... Floating. Why? Because in some areas of our lives we may have the tendency to swim upstream, against the flow of our intuition, and in others we may find ourselves floating in one place staying so “busy” or “stuck” we can’t...

In honor of Life With Intention Online registration now being open (class starts this Sunday, September 18th), I have a special interview for you with Colleen Kavanaugh. Colleen is a Certified Caregiving Consultant over at TheLongestDance.com.

Today’s show is all about the surprising reality that hit me as I came back to London on the second leg of my adventure… The unexpectedly Fall-like weather in London, and the changing priorities of this journey. In fact, many of us may be going through a new season weather-wise, career-wise, relationship-wise, or other-wise… and if we are in the flow, it may catch us by surprise. In this episode,...

Today’s Lively Show is covering a wide of flow related questions many listeners have shared on Instagram this September. We’ll be diving into flow in regards to families, full-time jobs, fighting through difficulties, and super long commutes. I’ll be sharing how I think flow can be applied to each of these circumstances and more. Plus, I’m also sharing what I’d take with me on a deserted island, h...

Today’s show is all about the difference in lifestyle I’ve noticed between the new format of my life and travels, compared to how things were when I was living in my home in “life as usual” before this trip. For me, life now is simpler and more difficult, and before I left it was easier and more complicated. In the episode, I’m sharing what the difference between each way of life are, which versio...

In today’s Lively Show, I’m sharing the career shift I’ve been making over the past 4-6 months that has resulted in some amazing and effective results. I’m talking about making a shift from the “effort and action” mentality that is commonly spoken about in personal development and entrepreneurship spaces and replacing it with “alignment before action.” This episode is perfect for anyone who is int...

Today’s Lively episode is the first “Adventure” now that I’m back in the US! As I’m here once again, my ego wants to know where I’ll live, or at least when I’ll know where I want to live... ASAP. But the truth is: I don’t have any intuition about that right now. As I live in this murky place of uncertainty, I’m sharing the two biggest things I’m focusing on, which also apply to anyone else going t...

This is my first week back in the States! (Talk about “all the feels.”) Before leaving in May, I was most curious to know how this trip would “change me” - since so many people said extended international travel would do just that. Well, today I’m reflecting on the top 10 lessons I’ve learned - and what I think I’m going to do in my life (based on this experience) going forward. This episode is pe...

It’s time time again for… Questions + Answers... August edition! We are covering a whole bunch of “bits and bobs” (my new favorite Britishism) today. There are lots of travel questions, intuition writing queries, more international dating stuff, and more. So let’s dive in, shall we? This episode is perfect for anyone who wants to tap into their intuition more (and might be facing some resistance),...

Today’s Lively Show is going into a subject that I’m fascinated by: the connection (or disconnection) between circumstances and emotions. This is some new territory on TLS, we have touched on emotions briefly in this episode with Brooke Castillo, and today I’m going deeper into how we can chose to positively shift our emotions despite circumstances that would normally “dictate” otherwise. And, how...

Today I’ve got a fresh batch of “favorites” to share with you from July! I’m chatting about some recent jewelry purchases, the prettiest chocolate bars I’ve ever eaten (with inventive flavorings), the spiritual teachings I’ve been listening to all summer, and some favorite spots and cocktails from London and Edinburgh. This episode is for anyone who wants to hear about some fun new jewelry purchas...

Today’s Lively Show episode is inspired by a moment I had next to a set of crystallized coasters in an Anthropologie in Edinburgh, Scotland. Inspiration really can come from all sources, eh? : ) As I stared wistfully at the coasters, vintage inspired glasses, and brass bottle openers, I had a powerful realization about the ‘blend’ of things our lives, the power of imagination, and our limiting bel...

In today’s Lively Adventure episode I’m sharing what I learned from Dhanakosa, a weeklong Buddhist Meditation Retreat, that I participated in the Scottish Highlands last week. I’m sharing what the retreat itself was like, what I personally experienced during my self-reflection regarding relationships, and lessons learned from processing physical and emotional pain. This episode is perfect for anyo...

Today I’ve got a fun episode covering many questions asked in this July’s Q+A call out. I’m discussing a variety of subjects including: how I found my coaches, whether I’m feeling freedom (or boredom) from my travel capsule wardrobe, my advice for overcoming vices, things I miss about the US, my “must see” recommendations, and my experiences dating internationally. This episode is perfect for anyo...

Today’s Lively Adventure is about the empowering truth behind what happens when what you have in your life, like a job, home, relationship, or wallet is taken away from you - willingly or unwillingly. I’m sharing the mindset shift that helped me make the decision to peacefully give up what I spent 10 years carefully creating in the span of just a few days, as well as coming to terms with a few oth...

Today’s favorites episode covers a wide array of shopping, reading, and watching… from bikinis to Euro cup! I’ll be sharing the Portuguese swimsuit trend I can’t believe I’ve adopted(!), one of my new favorite clothing lines, a face mask that has helped tame the acne that has cropped up on this trip, and my favorite new scent. Plus, I’ll be sharing about a new book from a Lively Show guest I had t...

This week on TLS I'm sharing the real deal: I had a pretty disorienting week. I'm feeling a bit like a fish out of water - I’m not quite sure where I belong in the world and where I'll end up in the next few weeks, months, or years (as much as my ego would like to start gnawing on these questions and answers now). In the episode, I'll be sharing what I've learned from this...

Today’s Lively Adventure is all about what happens when the flowing in our lives… stops flowing. After 5 or 6 weeks of being in the flow in my life - and reaping the peaceful, fun, and surprising adventures that came from this way of living - this last week the “flow” slowed to a trickle. Okay, maybe not even a trickle. Today, I’m sharing what that experience was like, what helped (and what didn’t...

Today's Lively Adventure subject is one that is near and very dear to my heart right now: Internal Alignment vs. External Validation. This is something that I·ve been practicing in recent weeks and is very important to me as I share with you what I·m going through as it unfolds live. And it·s also a powerful practice that can benefit us all, no matter what our current circumstances may be. Th...

Today on The Lively Show I’m answering listener questions about all things travel, from how to talk to strangers and make new friends, to the lessons I’ve learned so far, and what European city I can see myself living in later this year. In addition, I’m also sharing the best advice I’ve ever received (which I still use today), my favorite nail polish, and more. This episode is perfect for anyone...

This week I’d like to share how I’ve used my two newest Values in my life and travels to give me a sense of direction and clarity over the past month. Though there are still tons of unknowns in my life, like where I’m going to live, when I’ll come back to the states, or where I’m going to go next 9 days from now... I have been surprisingly peaceful, present, and become even more grounded lately th...

Today’s May Favorites episode includes the fiction book that I can’t stop listening to, the tv show that inspires me every time I watch, and some items I’ve picked on my travels. In addition, I’m also sharing the popular fashion trends that I’ve noticed from women in France, Portugal, and London. This episode is perfect for anyone interested in hearing about what I’ve been loving in May as well as...

Welcome to  Season 3  of The Lively Show! Today I am SO pumped to share a  big  change in my own life that unfolded the week before I left for Europe and the process I applied to making that decision. In today’s episode, I’ll be sharing what it means to “put out a fleece” in order to make a huge life change. — I’ll be sharing where this idea comes from, how I used it in my own decision, and how yo...
