The Davina Podcast
WARRIOR WOMEN TIP: TAKE YOURSELF ON A DATE I spent the day at the: Mint Art Museum Walking around all by myself, looking at all the exhibits is my favorite… No one to rush me or wonder why I’m taking so long.

Both types of exhibits remind me: NOTHING HAS GONE WRONG Even if… •It seems like figuring something out is taking too long •Life feels frustratingly like a hamster wheel •My...

You don’t have to do anything the way everyone else does. I KNOW this may sound obvious It’s more HIDDEN than you might think, though.

I said: Because it’s the way it’s done in the industry. WHAT?!? Here I am the… ‘Break The Rules’ ‘Live Unapologetically’ ‘Be A Warrior Woman’ ‘March...

The Davina Podcast
You’ve done something you’re totally proud of, at some point, right? Like totally thought you rocked it? And then…. Bum bu bummmm…. Your brain comes in like a freight train T-boning a car sitting on the tracks and says: Wow. You sure messed that up. What were you thinking? Why did you say that? You took over the conversation.

Daily 1% x 222: Sabotaging You
The Davina Podcast
Have you ever said, “I feel like I’m sabotaging myself?” You’re right. Kind of. It’s not your fault, though. Here’s why… Brains have two parts: Primitive Pre-frontal cortex They basically like OPPOSITE things. If you sometimes feel like you’re fighting with yourself or constantly torn between two things… Guess what? Nothing has gone wrong AND You are not a mutant. One part of our brain loves routine. It gets all giddy about doing the same thing over and over and over again. This part of your brain loves familiarity, comfort,...

Daily 1% x 221: If You're Disappointed
The Davina Podcast
Maybe you’re disappointed… In you. In the way you’re showing up. In who you are being. Knowing what you’ve been thinking, feeling, doing or NOT thinking, feeling, doing... It makes you want to: Be hard on yourself… Beat yourself up… Say a few mean things to yourself. You and me… We are human. Our brains do this. They think they are helping. The truth is… What really helps, is this… Notice you’ve been judging yourself. Thinking unhelpful or unkind or unloving thoughts about you or maybe about someone else. ...
info_outline“BE AWESOME”
A couple of years ago that 👆quote was being said everywhere
Posters were being made
It was a thing
It was trendy to have stuff that SAID: be awesome.
What does it even mean to BE AWESOME?
Let’s make a list:
Know who you are
Show up big
Do hard things
Be on fire
Create epic stuff
Be willing to do scary ideas
Not back down
Stay positive
Have courage
Don’t listen to haters
Keep going
All of these are good.
Inspiring.
What about:
🌟Loving yourself even when you don’t want to get out of bed in the morning
🌟Letting yourself take a nap
🌟Noticing your body and listening to it
🌟Saying no
🌟Going to bed when you want to stay up late
🌟Turing off your phone
🌟Letting yourself be sad or mad or glad or frustrated and feeling into it on purpose
🌟Celebrating yourself
🌟Giving yourself a pat in the back
🌟Having a one person dance party when you hit that goal: big or small
🌟Taking a walk
🌟Saying yes to you
🌟Slowing down
Often, when we think of being awesome
It’s the big showy positive in-your-face types of things we consider
But
The truth is
The big showy things aren’t what make you awesome
I’m fact, YOU ARE ALREADY AWESOME.
YOU AND ME, we arrived on this planet with this tattooed on our soul:
AWESOME
Being awesome isn’t up for debate or discussion
We already are
We may not believe it
Nothing has gone wrong if you don’t believe in your own awesomeness
I didn’t believe in mine
I wanted other people to tell me about my awesomeness
I looked for it in projects and accomplishments
All of us do
Until we stop
Until we start seeing the ways we’ve hurt ourselves
And we start putting salve on those wounds
Beginning to love our already existing awesomeness
Accepting our awesomeness
Even when we do things we don’t like
It’s in how we treat our selves on the way to those big showy things that make us see and love and allow our awesomeness.
Saying I love you to yourself even when you do things you wish you hadn’t
Celebrating yourself when it seems too small
Seeing your fire for its ability to both burn AND warm
Loving yourself for all of it
Seeing your desire for quiet and aloneness AND being visionary
Not judging yourself for any of it
Seeing your emotionally messy self AND your ability to hold someone’s pain so carefully
Be willing to love both parts of you.
Seeing you desire for structure, order, control AND your ability to make things simple for others
Embracing both without shaming yourself
Seeing your all-over-the-place-thinking-and-talking AND your bubbly engaging fun self
Giving both parts a grateful hug.
This is where your awesomeness lies.
In all of it.
Stop judging you
BE YOU:
AWESOME
What are two contrasting things about you?
