FR Ep #165 How to Live from Joy not Fear with Victoria Price Jun 01, 2020

Show notes

Today on Feminine Roadmap Victoria Price, daughter of the beloved Vincent Price, encourages listeners to live from joy not fear. Her father left her a legacy of unconditional love and through sharing that legacy with his fans she found herself reconnecting with that love and the joy it brought back into her life. She believes that in being willing to get lost to all that things that we “should be” allows us to relearn to listen to our hearts, practicing who we are on the inside leads us back to a life of joy and love away from the power of fear. Just as a child finds joy in the pure and simple delight of being alive as we practice mindfully connecting daily with the world around us, we begin to shift out of fear to love and joy. Being willing to clear the fear over and over again changing our relationship with the stories and triggers we have long been controlled by helps us spiral up to the place of love and joy. During these unique times of worldwide quarantine and emotional unrest, this episode is a place to sit with a cuppa something wonderful and get that internal hug you need from Victoria’s heart to yours. www.feminineroadmap.com/episode165/

FR Ep #161 Navigating Power Styles and Pressure in Uncertain Times with Maggie Craddock May 18, 2020

Show notes

Today on Feminine Roadmap we are talking about power styles and how they morph under the pressure of uncertain times with Maggie Craddock. Maggie believes in the importance of understanding your power style and how it morphs especially when we find ourselves in situations that trigger us. How we choose to engage with our own power style and emotional reactions is in the pivot point to making the mindset shift necessary to come out of the uncertain time with more authentic alignment, less emotional tension and more relational connectedness. During an uncharted life experience like a worldwide quarantine definitely puts everyone on edge as we are all being tested and going to the edge of something new and unsettling. It’s at this edge that the depth of our inner icebergs get triggered both emotionally in our inner world and behaviorally in our outer world. Maggie explains how understanding our power styles and the power styles of those around us becomes an invaluable tool in navigating times of stress and uncertainty because it helps us gain perspective outside of our own perception of things. Maggie encourages listeners to utilize this tool to help them remain agile around their expectations of people, extending more grace and patience as we move through this worldwide challenge as well as our personal challenges together.

FR Ep #160 How to Create a Wisdom Women Circle with Susie Levan May 14, 2020

Show notes

On today’s episode of Feminine Roadmap Gina and her guest, Susie Levan, talk about how to create a wisdom women circle for connection and community much needed at this season of life. Behind every successful woman is a tribe of women who have her back- encouraging, challenging and supporting her. Susie found that many women lacked this essential circle of women in their life, a circle that held a non-judgemental space for them to belong to: no drama, understanding, positive influence and shared experiences. Creating your own wisdom women circle is empowering, it’s a like-minded group of women to collaborate with, one that enriches you and ignites possibilities. One of the unique things about this circle of women is the rules of engagement such as sharing common ground, trust, confidentiality and no judgement – everyone shares from their own life experience no seeking to solve or fix anyone but to connect and tap into the collective wisdom of the group. Grab a cuppa something wonderful and be inspired to find your tribe of wisdom women, to double down in this season of life with a renewed sense of purpose and intentionality. www.feminineroadmap.com/episode160/

FR Ep #156 Winning at Midlife Reinvention with Judy Holland Apr 30, 2020

Show notes

On today’s episode of Feminine Roadmap we’re talking about winning at midlife reinvention with courage, pluck and connection. Judy Holland, journalist and author of “Happinest: Finding Fulfillment When Your Kids Leave Home” is a woman who has not only reinvented herself but has done the research on what it takes to be successful at midlife reinvention. Judy covers many different, practical ways we can reinvent ourselves, the strategies and steps we can take to make that second half shift. Does the idea of reinvention feel scary or overwhelming? “Courage,” Judy says, “is a muscle we can work it out and strengthen it.” Research supports the idea that we are more effective in our second half because we bring all of our life experiences- successes, failures, joys, sorrows- to the golden table of midlife (and later). From taking personal inventories to reconnecting with friends and creating new ones, reinvention becomes a journey of contribution, one that benefits the greater good because we step into our fullest selves in this season instead of stepping back. We invite you to be brave, adventurous and strip away the fear – go ahead and get comfortable being uncomfortable – get on your own winning team at midlife reinvention! www.feminineroadmap.com/episode156/
