A Dream Come True After 100 No's | Bethany Lee Mar 17, 2021

Show notes

When Bethany Lee isn't writing, she is elbow deep in garden soil or peppered with dust from a mountain trail. She is decidedly an "outside girl" and loves biking, hiking, and basically any activity that can be done in yoga pants —clearly, she was born to write a book about an adventure in the mountains. Bethany is a communications graduate who has a soft spot for young adults and all of the cringy moments they experience every day (It gets better, friends). A creative writer since early childhood, she uses humor, honesty, and whimsy to pull the readers in and invite them to laugh, relate, and introspect. Bethany currently resides in Lehi, Utah, with her husband, three kids, and garden.

We loved chatting with Bethany about not giving up on your dreams no matter what. Don't ever stop pursuing what sets your heart on fire....Keep going, keep believing, move past rejection, fear, and failure. We also talked about helping teens understand their worth, favorite books, imposter syndrome, and more!

Bethany is officially an author after her book finally got published 10 years after she wrote it!! Her book is titled "Called Upon" and she is offering our listeners a deal.

When You Feel Like You're Not Good Enough | Brittany Alysia Mar 03, 2021

Show notes

Brittany has been through some major hardships in her life. She has come out strong, brave, courageous, and learning she has always been good enough! Her story has many twists and turns. She has been through SO much!!

Lots of scary life events from a brain tumor, cervical cancer, coping with a serious accident her dad was in, being in 2 very abusive relationships, to even being kidnapped.

In 2017 she was crying on her living room floor wishing her life would end. When her life finally unravelled in 2018 and she was left for another woman, she chose the greatest victory of all.. learning how to love the woman looking in the mirror, and she turned her dreams into a reality.

It was a long journey to learn to love herself. After all she went through she was so afraid to trust herself again, because she had believed so many lies in her relationships. At times she was made to think all the problems were hers. She would question why she was not good enough in those relationships...what she learned was she is always good enough.

Brittany Alysia is now the owner/founder of Make Life Your Bitch. As an online coach she teaches female entrepreneurs from around the world, how to use the power of their story to create and market a business they love. You can find more about her here

From Miss to Mrs...Our Dating Stories Feb 11, 2021

Show notes

Have you ever wondered where things all began and how couples start dating and then eventually ended up together? Everyone has "their" story.

Well, since it's close to Valentine's Day we thought it would be fun to share our dating stories and how we ended up with our hubbies, and eventually married so many year ago! How did it begin, who tried the hardest, who played hard to get, who was engaged previously, who wrote letters to each other for 2 years, and more!

We even learned a few new things about each of us that we didn't know before recording!!

It's great to take a walk down memory lane and remember it all.

The three of these young guys (our hubbies) had some patience, some romance, and big hearts to win us over!
