The Power Of Vulnerability- LIVE Presentation Jun 28, 2019

The Power Of Vulnerability- LIVE Presentation

This podcast is a little different today… We pulled the audio from a live presentation I did with Russel Brunson’s inner circle, talking about vulnerability. As Brene Brown says, “vulnerability is our unsuspecting super power,” and it has been a KEY part of both my personal and business life. A lot of people tell me that trying to be vulnerable is like standing naked in front of the whole school, and it can be. It will be, but it is SO important to use your shame and times that make you feel vulnerable to make connections and tell your story.

We cover:

- Tips for opening up and becoming more vulnerable

- Go over people that have helped me become more vulnerable

- My tips on building an “emotional story”

- Turning shame into something positive

I hope you enjoy this podcast!

Show notes

“YOU are the only one that can give your loved ones a healthy mother, spouse and friend that loves her life.”

I have had so many people reach out and ask how to run a business with a spouse so I brought on my good friend and amazing entrepreneur, Marley Baird. Marley is a youtube guru and runs an AWESOME business with her husband. In this podcast she talks about the ups and downs and gives great advice on how to keep family and business separate and when you can’t, how to balance both at the same time. Marley pulls back the curtain on times she has been so burned out and stressed she was having physical symptoms and shares ways she has taken a step back and gotten the mental and physical rest and help needed to run a business and stay healthy emotionally.

In this podcast we cover:

Running a business with your partner
Feeling burned out or exhausted and how to recharge
How to generate your own self worth and not depend on others to give you value
Taking care of your marriage and mental health
Some fun tips on growing and scaling an audience

Tips For NOT Blowing Your Diet When Traveling Jun 18, 2019

Show notes

I traveled to Las Vegas AND New York City for speaking events in the span of ten days last week. It was a lot of travel and kind of took its toll on me. (I’m actually not someone who loves travel and I am kind of a homebody and prefer being at home with my normal routine and my garden - anyone else? Or am I just weird that way?)A lot of you guys asked how I handle my diet and workouts when I travel, so I recorded a quick podcast talking about what I did well on these trips, and what I totally bombed at.

Things we go over:-What kind of quick grab and go snacks you can pack in your suitcase

-Which is more important on vacation: follow your diet or getting your workout in?

-How to order at a restaurant when on vacation but still trying to be mindful of your calories.

-My secret little trick for order wine, bread, and/or dessert at dinner.

-How to modify your workouts with a hotel gym.Hope you enjoy it! Do you have any tips for traveling? I’d love to start a conversation here! Let me know in the comments!XoNatalie

How a Near Death Experience Can Change The Path Of Your Life Jun 11, 2019

Show notes

Today I brought on my two friends, Bryan and Stephanie Dulaney. We talk about their business, the crazy story about how they met and so much more!

When Bryan was in college he survived a near death experience that left him in a coma that doctors say he should never have woken up from. Bryan then turns this story into such an inspiring one by listening to the small promptings that came after that to make some big changes in his life.

I loved hearing Bryan talk about how he took something so devastating and turned it into what he has now.

In this podcast we also cover:

- Stephanie's pregnancy

- How to listen to "the signs" the universe is giving you to help you fulfill your total potential

- How Stephanie sent Bryan an instagram message that ended up with her spontaneously flying to Hawaii to meet Bryan for the first time

- Tools for communicating if you and your partner are running a business together

... and so much more!

Hope you love it!

When Life Throws You A Curveball... How To Rise Up Even Stronger Jun 04, 2019

Show notes

I’ve never cried during a podcast….until this one. I hope you will take the time to listen to it, the stories that my friends Wallace and Ashlan Nelson touched me deeply. Ashlan and Wallace are two of my favorite humans on this planet. And in this podcast, we talked about SO many things!

Wallace shared his stories of growing up with a powerhouse mother who was a strong business woman, and how she pioneered the way in a male-dominated market as a naturopathic doctor and the mark that left on him. Ashlan and Wallace talk about their new program called Vitavore that is exploding in popularity that teaches people how to eat intuitively while getting amazing fat loss results!

THEN...Ashlan completely blew me away (and made me cry) when she opened up and talked about how she felt completely broken after she went through her divorce. She told me how she was a single mom working as a hair stylist, and burning the candle at both ends while she tried to make money, raise babies, and take care of herself at the same time. She dove deep on self worth, and the specific steps she followed as she began to believe in herself again.Ashlan and Wallace have EIGHT kids, and we talked about how they balance work and family life and bringing blended families together.

This was a packed podcast that, I promise you, will leave you loving these two as much as I do.If you want to learn more about these two amazing humans you can at their sites:www.vitavore.com

So much love,

How To Teach Your Kids The Importance of Money and Building Businesses May 30, 2019

Show notes

I hope you had a chance to listen to Part 1 of this awesome podcast with Alison and Makayla Prince! This mom/daughter duo have such an amazing story and I am SO grateful they agreed to be on my podcast. In part 1, we share Alison’s journey of how she went from qualifying to food stamps to building her own multi-million dollar businesses.

But the story doesn’t end there….in Part 2 I spend a lot of time with her daughter Makayla and we share her story. And boy is it a cool story!At age 13, Makayla (and her 11 year old sister) took the framework their mom taught them about starting businesses, and made $100k in 9 months selling scarves!In this podcast we dig deep into:-The specific things Alison and her husband did to instill financial responsibility in their kids -What it was like for Makayla watching her mom build businesses and raise babies as she was growing up

-What is was like for her as a teenager entrepreneur and how her friends responded to her being a business owner at a young age

-Her plans after high school, and her decision to not go to college and to work on her businesses instead

These two are great friends of mine, and they’ve inspired me to change a lot of the things I’m doing with my own kids when it comes to money and finances. I hope you love it and make sure to follow @alisonjprince and @makaylaprince - they are genuinely good people and such rockstars.XoNatalie

I Graduated From College....And They Told Me "Congratulations! You Qualify for Food Stamps" May 29, 2019

Show notes

I am so excited to introduce you guys to my friend Alison Prince and her daughter Makayla Prince. Alison is one of my closest friends and I love our friendship because we have the kind of relationship where I can call or text her when I’m struggling with my business AND I can call or text her when things are going great and we cheer each other on and support one another without jealousy or competition. #strongwomensupportingstrongwomen

Alison has an INCREDIBLY cool story, and I brought her on the podcast to share it. She graduated from college and had her teaching degree, and was shocked when she got her first teaching job and wasn’t making enough to even afford groceries - her salary qualified her for food stamps.

With a new baby on the way, she knew she had to make some changes and that’s when she began her entrepreneurial journey.The stories she shares of her failures and successes along the way gave me chills! Alison started her first business by selling scraps she found around her house!We actually ended up breaking this one into two parts because it got long, but in this first part we start sharing the story of how she taught her four kids money principles at a young age (including cutting them off financially at twelve years old)! Her daughter Makayla is on the podcast too, talking about what it was like growing up watching her mom start various businesses. And, in fact, Makayla and her sister started their own business at just 11 and 13 years old and make 100k in 9 months selling….scarves!I hope you love this podcast as much as I loved recording it. Alison and Makayla are two women who I love and look up to, and have pure hearts of gold.So much love,

Natalie

I Lost A Baby... May 09, 2019

Show notes

A few years ago I went through one of the most painful and emotional experiences of my life. I had an ectopic pregnancy and lost a baby that I wanted so badly. I released a podcast today where I talk about my experience, tell the entire story of what happened, the ambulance ride, the emergency surgery they had to perform, how I lost a fallopian tube, and the emotional roller coaster that I experienced afterwards.Miscarriage is something I completely misunderstood….until I went through it myself. This is embarrassing to admit, but I used to remember thinking (when I heard about other women having miscarriages), “well...that’s sad but not as sad as if they lost a REAL baby”. I now know that the experiences are completely different, but I was so naive back then to how hard the experience really is for a mother. In this podcast I talk about:-My own story and experience-How I went from sad and angry, to thankful, back to sad and angry and feelings of “not fair” -What my recovery from the surgery was like (might be a bit TMI)-How my husband (now ex-husband) handled things differently than I did-The feelings of hatred I had towards my body for letting me down-The anxiety attacks I experienced afterwards-The fears I had/have about having any more children and having it happen again-Tips on what to say and what NOT to say if a friend or loved one has gone through a miscarriage

I hope you tune in. I wish this is a topic that more people openly talked about. For me, knowing I wasn’t alone in my experience helped me heal and cope so much.So much love,

Natalie
