In this episode, I discuss the common feeling of "I'm in a funk!" and how to get out of it.   We all have periods of time where we feel off or in a funk.  The part to know, however, is that you can teach yourself how to recover faster and feel better faster vs. staying stuck.   I believe feeling low/down can happen for several different reasons, and it's helpful to know what triggered your funk in...

In this episode, I talk through the specific fears I hear from others when starting something new.  It's amazing to me how similar all our fears are, and they usually boil down to:   "I'm worried about what others will think" (please refer back to Episode 8 for this entire topic! - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-8-im-too-worried-about-what-other-people-think/id1561020036?i=100052287...

In this episode, I discuss about 5 not-so-talked-about realities that I've experienced in my last 6 years of creating my business from the ground up.   Being your own boss comes with responsibility, work ethic, and self accountability to show up and do what you need to do, when you need to do it.   With this business model, I am the creator of my results. I am paid based on a reflection of the num...

In this episode, I talk about a concept called the knowing-doing gap.   Most of us know exactly what we need to do to make something happen, but yet we simply don't do it.  It's not a knowledge gap, it's an execution gap.  The book "12 Week Year" by Brian P Moran & Michael Lennington breaks this down so well   This is why so many Americans are obese despite the surplus of information around health...

"But what if I fail?"..... The only sure way to fail is not to start.   In this episode, I discuss the "fear of failure" that holds so many of us back. What I know to be true is that we all have fear; it's simply our decision to move through it and take the first steps.   The only way to move through the fear is to do the thing!   The Terror Barrier is the feeling of fear & anxiety that you experi...

"We live in a crockpot society with microwave dreams."   Have you ever wished things would happen faster for you?  Do you feel like you are "doing all the things", but you still aren't where you really want to be?
