Take Control of Your Happiness with Megan Gallagher (128) Jun 23, 2022

Show notes

Isn’t it time to (finally) get serious about investing time and energy into YOUR wellbeing? If you want some serious inspiration to prioritize yourself in the midst of your many competing obligations, this episode featuring Megan Gallagher, a 26-year-old, two-time TEDx speaker, four-time best selling author, on-camera host and mental health advocate is for you! Together we discuss how when you decide to take responsibility for your happiness, eat healthy and get in shape, not to mention cut out toxic people in your life, you'll notice how much better life gets! Megan also gives specific, step-by-step advice on how to overcome some of the traps we fall into. For example, she advises when you find yourself comparing yourself to someone else, you can ask: Step One: Have you met the person you are comparing yourself to in person? Step Two: Have you seen where and how they really live? Step Three: Have you spent 24-48 hours with them in person? The answers to these questions are likely no, no, and no. So it’s an easy reality check to remember that you can’t compare your life to someone else’s highlight reel. (And she even reveals some of the sneaky ways people appear way more affluent than they are!) In the end, Megan encourages listeners to take their power back and not allow any circumstances or people to decide their destiny. It’s a must listen to episode whether you are feeling a little down in the dumps or if you are on a determined trajectory to fulfill your fiercest potential! About Megan Gallagher Megan Gallagher is a 26 year old 2x TEDx speaker, 4x best selling author, on-camera host & mental health advocate. After struggling with mental health issues as a teenager, she decided to leave College and pursue her own dreams. While speaking at schools, she realized how healing this was for her life journey. Over the past eight years, she has spoken at over 750 schools(middle schools, high schools and colleges). Megan is on a mission to inspire the world with her story.

Get Out of My Head with Andrew McConnell (127) Jun 16, 2022

Show notes

In this episode I have an amazing discussion with Andrew McConnell, author of the newly released Get Out of My Head: Creating Modern Clarity with Stoic Wisdom. Bombshells, you are going to want to listen to this one TWICE, take some notes, then order the book and download the free workbook, stat! Andrew outlines how to go from being a "mind tenant" to a "mind owner." He says we spend far too much of our lives giving away our headspace to people who don't deserve it, and leave ourselves renting the remnants as mental tenants. Our mind is our most valuable possession, Andrew says, so becoming a mind owner is the single best investment you can make. Of course, we have a conversation that opens us both up to our personal experiences like how and when we’ve rented our headspace out and when we’ve been determined not to. One of the many reasons I just love Andrew is because he is both real and intentional, and I think you will find yourself lost in this conversation as you consider how many of your thoughts you own versus how many you surrender to others or even “other versions of yourself.” (Yeah, that one hit me in between the eyes, too! I SO do that sometimes! You’ll have to listen to find out what that means!) It is true that our thoughts lead to beliefs and then action. So personally, I’m always a work in progress, but I can attest that when I have applied these principles, I have had much more success in managing my mind AND the outcomes in my life. So tune in now on your favorite listening app or watch it on YouTube to take back full ownership and occupancy of your mind!
