193. The Worst-Case Scenario Dec 18, 2023

Show notes

In business, many of us have experienced that moment when the potential worst-case scenario looms on the horizon. It's that unsettling feeling that freezes us in our tracks. Kristen acknowledges the typical response of saying, "It probably won't happen," as a way to minimize the fear. However, she proposes a more courageous approach – sitting with the worst-case scenario and unpacking it in its entirety.

Kristen shares her personal story of physically working through a worst-case scenario. Whether it's the fear of rejection or the fear of shame, she emphasizes the importance of making peace with these scenarios.

Let's look at a few highlights:

Embracing the worst-case scenario is not a surrender to failure but a pathway to growth.
Kristen's journey led her to a profound realization: nothing was left to fear because she had already lived through the worst-case scenario in her mind.
The key is to make peace with the worst-case scenario. By making peace with our worst-case scenarios, we refuse to settle for fear, allowing ourselves to show up and pursue the extraordinary.
Growth and risks are intertwined; they cannot exist without each other.
By sitting with our fears and making them safe, we unveil the power to achieve the impossible.

So, what if, like Kristen, we make peace with our fears and stop letting them prevent us from showing up? It's an invitation to embrace the unknown, confront our deepest fears, and discover the boundless potential that lies within. After all, growth is impossible without taking risks, and embracing the worst-case scenario unlocks the door to the extraordinary.

192. Productive Reflection Dec 11, 2023

Show notes

As we approach the end of the year, it's common to find ourselves reflecting on the past months. Sometimes, this reflection comes with a touch of shame and disappointment when we think about the things we didn't accomplish. However, what if we shift our focus from dwelling on missed opportunities to engaging in productive reflection?

In today's episode, Kristen unpacks productive reflection and how it involves more than a mere glance back; it's about sifting through the highs and lows of the year, identifying our favorite moments, and acknowledging our achievements.

Let's look at a few highlights:

Ask yourself: What was your favorite thing this year? What are you proud of? What valuable lessons did you learn along the way?
We assume we're entering the new year with a clean slate. However, the truth is we carry ourselves into the new year. The key is identifying the lessons learned and considering how we can evolve.
Productive reflection isn't just about making resolutions; it's about putting action behind those resolutions.
Give yourself permission to acknowledge your strengths and successes. This shift in perspective is crucial because constant rumination can make you feel like a victim of circumstance.

Productive reflection isn't about erasing the past but using what you've learned to forge a brighter future. It's about acknowledging achievements, confronting learned lessons, and propelling ourselves toward growth. Embrace the lessons, celebrate your victories, and enter the new year with a renewed sense of purpose and resilience.

Step into your greatness – no more playing small or hiding from your potential. Transform your business dreams into reality as you exceed even your own expectations. Learn more about this 3-Day Online Virtual Event for Network Marketers here

191. Money, Marriage, and Motherhood with Jennifer Allwood Dec 04, 2023

Show notes

Choosing to be an entrepreneur while navigating the complexities of motherhood requires an honest conversation. Let's not sugarcoat it – it can be challenging, and the guilt accompanying it can be overwhelming. Kristen welcomes Jennifer Allwood for an open and candid conversation exploring the challenges entrepreneurial women and moms face, emphasizing the importance of not letting guilt become a hindrance.

In the pursuit of business, mothers might find themselves wrestling with guilt, but the resounding message is clear: Fear is not the boss of you.

Let's look at a few highlights:

Kristen and Jennifer touched upon a common struggle among women – the reluctance to give themselves permission to go all the way. It's a battle that's less about permission and more about confronting the fear that often lurks at the surface.
Many women may inadvertently use their roles as mothers as excuses, feeling guilty about pursuing their entrepreneurial aspirations. The key takeaway is clear: It's impossible to do it all at once, and that's perfectly okay.
Before being someone's mom, you were someone. Jennifer encouraged mothers to rediscover and embrace the identity that existed before the journey of motherhood began.
The concept of "Entrepreneur Math" comes into play – the strategic art of delegation and prioritization. It's time to question why certain aspects are undervalued and consciously prioritize what truly matters.
A common obstacle women face in their entrepreneurial journey is the fear of success. This fear can manifest as self-sabotage and excuses, hindering us from reaching our full potential.

Motherhood and business don't have to compete – they can coexist, and by embracing both aspects with intentionality, we can create a life that aligns with our values and aspirations. The entrepreneurship journey intertwined with money, marriage, and motherhood is a multifaceted adventure. It's about breaking the chains of fear, guilt, and self-sabotage. It's about giving ourselves permission to be amazing at both, understanding that something will always have to give, and that's perfectly okay.

190. Victims and Visionaries Nov 27, 2023

Show notes

In entrepreneurship, the mindset you adopt can be the determining factor between stagnation and success. Kristen introduces listeners to the two distinct mindsets that can shape the trajectory of our entrepreneurial journey. In a compelling "wake up and shake up" episode, she explores the differences between a victim and a visionary and the impact these mindsets will have on your business.

Let's look at a few highlights:

Victims tend to use the past as a weapon against themselves, beating themselves up over perceived mistakes or missed opportunities.
Visionaries, unlike victims, do not allow current circumstances to dictate their outlook. Instead of dwelling on what they lack, they focus on how the work they are doing now will pay off in the future.
A significant divergence between victims and visionaries lies in their relationship with the past.
Kristen's exploration delves into the concept of learned helplessness, challenging us to question where we might have conditioned ourselves into victimhood.
The visionary path is one of resilience, adaptability, and continuous growth. It's about seeing challenges as opportunities for improvement and understanding that the present is a stepping stone to a brighter future.

By choosing to be a visionary, cultivating resilience, and learning from the past rather than dwelling in it, you pave the way for business success and a fulfilling and empowered life. The power to shape your narrative lies within your mindset. The choice is yours – will you be a victim or a visionary?

Bonus Episode: Healthy During the Holidays Nov 22, 2023

Show notes

The holiday season is a time of joy, celebration, and, often, a few extra helpings of our favorite dishes. In this special bonus episode, Kristen welcomes the infamous Ben Olliver, her fitness trainer, to explore the intricacies of maintaining health during the holidays.

The conversation kicks off with a discussion on holiday health, where Kristen and Ben candidly share their perspectives on maintaining wellness amidst holiday temptations. This episode becomes a source of inspiration, highlighting the importance of determination and commitment to one's fitness journey, especially during the holidays.

Let's look at a few highlights:

Ben emphasized the importance of understanding the mentality that accompanies during the holidays. Societal expectations and comparisons can play tricks on our minds, leading to stress and self-doubt.
Comparing your health journey to others can be counterproductive. Just because someone else seems to have it easier doesn't diminish the significance of your efforts.
The focus should be on maximizing your personal potential rather than trying to emulate someone else's journey.
Ben highlighted common mistakes people make, emphasizing the importance of learning your patterns. Building foundational habits and finding a sustainable plan that aligns with your lifestyle are key elements in achieving long-term success.
Finding a plan that you can commit to everyday lays the foundation for lasting change.

As Kristen and Ben delved into the complexities of a fitness journey, the overarching theme was clear – your journey is uniquely yours. Embrace the challenges, work on your mindset, and focus on building sustainable habits. This holiday season, let your progress be a celebration of your journey towards a healthier, happier you.

189. Consistency vs. Perfection Nov 20, 2023

Show notes

Many of us find ourselves uttering phrases like, "I'm not consistent enough with..." This sentiment is a common hurdle when forming new habits or accomplishing goals. The challenge often lies in how we define and approach consistency. Are we setting ourselves up for success, or are we unknowingly sabotaging our efforts?

In today's episode, Kristen explores one of the major pitfalls in pursuing consistency: the intrusion of perfectionism. She challenges you to shift your mindset and change your relationship with consistency.

Let's look at a few highlights:

Instead of viewing consistency as a gradual effort over time, many perceive it as an all-or-nothing endeavor.
You might be using the desire for perfection as an excuse. This mindset shift from "keep going" to "start over" can hinder progress and lead to frustration.
Instead of aiming for perfection, consider what percentage of your goal you can realistically achieve each day.
Perfectionism often stems from an all-or-nothing mentality, allowing for zero flexibility. Challenge this mindset by acknowledging that progress is progress, regardless of perfection.
Aim for the 8/20 rule, understanding that imperfections are part of the journey.

Rather than fixating on perfect execution, embrace the power of progress. Remember, it's not about starting over; it's about continuously reminding yourself to keep going. Embrace the imperfect journey, celebrate the victories, and unlock the transformative potential of consistent and intentional effort.

188. The Tale of Two Trees Nov 13, 2023

Show notes

Have you ever thought about how trimming trees relates to running a business? Kristen got us all thinking after chatting about tree pruning and uncovering surprising similarities between this necessary job and how we shape our businesses. This talk led to some eye-opening discussions, linking the process of pruning to smart business strategies and offering valuable lessons for everyone aiming to grow professionally.

Kristen's story about two trees holds invaluable lessons about pruning and the transformative power of speaking life into seemingly challenging situations. These lessons extend far beyond the realm of horticulture, offering profound insights applicable to our daily lives.

Let's look at a few highlights:

The idea of 'cutting off things that look like they're working' might seem counterintuitive, yet it's a critical aspect of growth. It prompts us to consider what serves our present needs and what might hinder our future selves.
The pruning season might be discomforting, but it's an integral part of the growth process—a process that nurtures stronger, enduring, and ultimately more fruitful outcomes.
Kristen emphasizes the need to reframe our perspective on the phase we're in. It's not just the victorious seasons that define us; instead, it's our ability to navigate and grow through the challenging times that truly shape us.
It's a reminder that by speaking life into our endeavors, exercising patience, and consistently putting in the effort, we have the capacity to build something that lasts—a testament to the power of intentional growth and nurturing.

The crucial takeaway is about persevering and speaking positivity into our efforts. It's a lesson in patience, self-care, and the understanding that growth takes time. Much like trees go through the pruning stages, we must make hard decisions, persevere through challenges, and have the patience to nurture what we are building.
