63: Don't Quit: You're in the Messy Middle!
The Small Queendom Podcast
Recently I attended a business conference for women and we were prompted to write a letter of encouragement for someone in the room. My stream of consciousness encouragement immediately turned to not quitting even when in the messy middle. I think a lot of us feel like we are in the middle of things and feel ready to throw in the towel. This is your pep talk to keep. going. don't. quit. Imagine it's just you and me having a pep talk on the phone. "Don't Quit" By John Greenleaf Whittier When things go wrong as they...

info_outlineWelcome to Season 2! It feels great to be back with the show. In today’s episode I hope to leave you with a couple really useful nuggets how I tackle each challenge that comes my way. Many of my tips here I use daily.
Is it just me or does it feel like life is made up of one hard thing after the other? And that’s just the day by day, not to mention if we actually have ambition to live at a higher level of wellness, goals, or healthy relationships! I personally believe doing hard things is like a muscle that can be trained and honed and with 3 simple ingredients ( tools, skillset, mindset ) you can take on any challenge with EASE.
The second half of the show I give a little life update and share some things I have been working on. Season 2 greets us with a podcast facelift, new music, new guests, and more! Also the podcast now has an INSTAGRAM be sure to follow it for all the BEHIND THE SCENES and more: www.instagram.com/smallqueendompodcast
