30. My Infertility Journey Apr 25, 2022

Show notes

**Trigger Warning**

I'm sharing my infertility journey with you to let you know you're not alone. If you're silently struggling like I was, have LOTS of conflicting emotions when it comes to trying again, seeing your friends get pregnant, or handling the well intended advice from others who have no idea what you're going through, this might help.

**IF YOU'RE NOT IN A PLACE WHERE THIS WILL BE HELPFUL, PLEASE TUNE INTO MY NEXT EPISODE.*** Reach out privately if you'd like an ear to listen or come back when you feel more ready.

I want you to know that your feelings are valid and real and ok and I love you.

I also 3 thing NOT to say to someone struggling with infertility or pregnancy loss and what to say instead. We know you mean well and we appreciate you, these words don't help though.

ANNOUNCEMENT

I'm hosting a giveaway next week in honor of Mother's Day AND my birthday! Make sure you're following me on Instagram for some teasers and more details coming this week!

27. WWID? What would I do? Apr 05, 2022

Show notes

How many times have you replayed scenarios over and over and OVER in your head kicking yourself for something you did or DIDN'T do? Did you know that getting stuck in those experiences actually hold us back from improving to gaining the courage and confidence to go out and create NEW ones? You are SO much more than your past and it does NOT have to dictate your future. Let's have a little chat about exactly HOW to do this in your day to day!

Takeaways:

1. Your past does not dictate your future.

2. Get clear on your vision for your life - short and long term. DREAM FUCKING BIG.

3. Get off auto-pilot! Become aware of the thoughts/stories playing on repeat in your mind.

4. Acknowledge them and do so without judgement.

5. Ask yourself "What would I do if I was feeling/thinking/living my very BEST?" Make decisions from THAT place, not the past.

6. Your progress is directly related to your willingness to get uncomfortable.

7. What have you been unintentionally choosing because you're not intentionally changing?

Show notes

Are you constantly drained and finding yourself aimlessly scrolling? Have you ever been around someone who makes you feel lighter and brighter after you leave? Energy is a big deal.

25. One Degree of Change Mar 22, 2022

Show notes

If you get overwhelmed when thinking about starting something - a fitness goal, career change, LAUNDRY - gross, break it down. You DO NOT have to do everything right now. Baby steps are where it's at. Taking smaller bites of something makes it more digestible and although we don't see the different right away, one day, it'll reach the boiling point and you'll look back and be able to see all the difference each day made.

Let's chat more!

24. Unrealistic Expectations & Choices in Motherhood Mar 14, 2022

Show notes

It seems as though the moment we find out we're expecting, we're bombarded with opinions and advice coming from our mothers to do this and our friends to do that and let's not forget whats thrown at us from social media - woof. How many times have you endlessly researched what the right day to sleep train or start feeding or handling tantrums is? How many different viewpoints have you found? How often do you feel pulled in a million different directions? What about guilt and fear over choosing the "wrong" way or f*cking your kids up for life? Let's chat about all this shit and how dangerous it can be for our mental health and how to move forward in motherhood without letting the pressures of the outside world break us down. Takeaways: 1. Lower your expectations. There is no professional or book or Instagram Influencer who knows how your child is going to react or respond to ANYTHING. Give up the idea that we can control the outcomes when trying something new with our kids. 2. Give yourself permission to learn and grow with them. Remind yourself that it is VERY unlikely that one single decision is going to fuck them up forever. "Mistakes" can be great opportunities to learn together how to sit with uncomfortable situations and feelings, which in itself, is a valuable life lesson. 3. Get Clear on what you really want and align your actions with it. Shut off the world for a minute, get quiet, and see what feels right for YOU.

23. Live Coaching Call! Mar 07, 2022

Show notes

Meet Ann-Marie! She was drowning in motherhood and the only place/time she felt worthy was at her job. She felt hopeless and like where she was at 6 months ago was where she was going to be for the rest of her life. Fortunately, we connected on Instagram and the rest is her story to tell! Listen in on her growth and how she's transformed into a completely different version of herself using PCA and the tiny baby steps we worked on together. She found more freedom with food, changed her default mindset, and is even working on launching her own blog to share the hilarity and real life moments with her 3 little girls.

Enjoy!

22. Expectation vs. Reality Feb 28, 2022

Show notes

Do you fall into the all-or-nothing mindset? You expect perfection and when it (inevitably) doesn’t go as expected, you throw in the towel. Tune in for a bite-size episode full of tips to help you get back on the wagon once and for all!

Takeaways:

1. Set a goal and get clear on what it will take to reach it. THEN Ask yourself if you're truly willing to do those things.

2. Envision the unsexy daily things that it's going to take vs. just the end result.

3. If you're have a hard time giving yourself grace when things don't go perfectly, apply the situation to someone else you love and start talking to yourself the way you'd talk to them.

4. Focus on the action, not the outcome.

5. Get comfortable and ok with all the happy consequences that will come from taking action toward your goal.
