Part of the problem when it comes to self care is that you are too scattered and when you have some time to yourself your brain is still going a million miles an hour and then you never actually get to rest, relax and recharge because you spent the whole time thinking about what you could do for self care and then your time was over. But don't worry! I’m actually going to walk you through how to create your own self care menu.

Most of the time the things we say that we’re frustrated about and are picking fights about isn’t even the real issue. It’s usually something else that we didn’t deal with, that then piles up and then we snap over the most ridiculous things which had nothing to do with what we were actually frustrated or upset about in the first place. When you find yourself in these moments, where one frustration leads to another, and to another: When you have big emotions that feel like they’re taking over and you’re spinning out of control - remind yourself that you have a choice.

Let’s talk about overwhelm. I’m choosing this is because it’s something I have been struggling with this week. And what I have found is that if I’m struggling with something in my personal life chances are there’s a lot of other people who are struggling with this too. I keep it real, I keep it authentic and I’m never going to come on here and pretend like I have my life all together because I don’t. BUT I have learned how to manage stress, overwhelm, and big emotions so they don’t take over my life. The first thing and I think this can be the hardest sometimes is realizing that overwhelm is a choice... If I'm stepping on your toes by saying that then this is exactly what you need to hear.

Today we are going to travel back in time and revisit some things from childhood. When we bring awareness to our past we can heal, and then thrive in our future. I’m gonna be honest with you guys, I’ve been sitting on this episode for a few weeks now, constantly making tweaks to my notes and I kept postponing it because it made me nervous to record it. So I want us to take a deep breath together and let's dive in!

I think we’ve all heard the Tim McGraw song, Live like you dying. No one is guaranteed tomorrow. Every single day is a gift, but do we actually live that way? When we take tomorrow for granted we tend to fight against the current blessings that we have, but when we live like today is a gift, we will fight FOR our current blessings.
So this week I want you to evaluate some things in your life, and if there’s something that you feel like you would regret doing or regret not doing, make a note of that and start to change.

The same water that softens a potato hardens the egg... but what if there is a third option?
When we have challenges and hardships we want to take those lessons that we’re learning and we want to take it a step farther, so we can influence those around us for good. So we can help bring others UP with our positivity and not drag them down with our negativity. Are you choosing to see the bad, and focus on the negative. Or are you choosing to grow, are you choosing to see the positive. Are you choosing to look for the good that’s there. Let's find out which one you might be...

You can’t go back and change the past BUT You can change what happens next. We are called to take every thought captive and combat the lies we were telling ourselves with truth and then actually believe the truth! Let’s see what that looks like in a real life situation and combat real life toxic thoughts with whats true. Mistakes will happen, but it's up to us to learn from them. Remember friend, the goal is growth not perfection!

Maybe you’re like me and you’re obsessed with personal growth , you love it, you listen to all the podcasts, you’re reading all the books but here’s the thing, when the rubber meets the road, when the situations aren’t going the way you wanted to, how you handle those difficult situations is everything. That shows the true inner work that you're doing. But I would venture to guess that most of the time there is some kind of hiccup that comes along the way. And we have a choice to pivot. You can have all of these “aha” moments when you’re reading a book and you can be like “oh that is so good” or you listen to a podcast and you’re like “oh wow that was amazing” but if you’re not doing the inner work and you aren’t applying those things that you are learning then you aren’t truly doing the personal growth you’re just consuming, and being what we like to a personal growth junkie, but nothing is changing.

You are in for a treat today because I’m sharing with you a personal story, and this one is a little bit different because I’m sharing about a time when I didn’t have the best attitude, or response to a situation BUT I did learn from it, and the important thing. A few week ago in episode 11 I shared a story from our trip to Gatlinburg, and how I made a choice to pivot my attitude and not let it ruin the rest of my night or the rest of my trip. But with the story I'm going to share today it took me a little longer.

Are you distracting yourself from your most important work?
Last week we talked about how busy is not a badge of honor. This week we are talking about how busy can be a distraction for what we really need to be focusing on. When we are busy, we can get distracted from truly living. So why are you doing this? What are you running from your own thoughts? This root problem will not disappear if you don't face it. Let's get uncomfy, as we get comfortable being quiet.

"I'm busy"
"I'm good, just busy"
"Can't! Too busy!"
If you're like me you've probably said these phrases more often than not. Being busy has become an acceptable response to simple questions or tasks. Yet, with it comes stress and overwhelm. The reality is, YOU are in control of your calendar, and the things that are on there you have allowed in your life. So today let's talk about being "busy" and why we aren't going to say it anymore.

Our thoughts say a lot about us. Sometimes we have to ask ourselves the hard questions when our instant thought isn't something we'd say out loud. Maybe it's judging another mom or maybe it's insecurity in your own motherhood. No matter the case, today we are learning how to use these knee-jerk reactions to strengthen our beliefs about our own personal motherhood and self evaluate what our thoughts show us about ourselves.

Is the grass really greener on the other side? Joy isn't a destination you can go to. It's something you have, something you gain. Let's train our brains to choose joy as we learn to intentionally think positive thoughts. Getting the green grass takes work and so does our mindset.

Where can we turn for peace in those moments of complete chaos and destruction? How do we pull it back together? Mama, you're not alone in these feelings and in this episode we'll talk about it all.
