MINISODE | How to Conserve Energy and Consume Less

MINISODE | How to Conserve Energy and Consume Less
This week I chatted with who is a meteorologist and I loved his simple advice on how we can all make a big impact on our environment by making small changes in our daily lives. When it comes to making a difference with the effects on our environment, it can seem like a huge daunting task and that there's no way minor changes can't help but that's so not the case! Every little bit adds up and it can add up to massive change. While I do feel like I'm already doing a lot to help conserve energy (we have a smart thermostat, energy efficient appliances, use LED lights) there's always more I can do so I want this week's challenge to be all about conserving more energy and reducing my consumption!

MINISODE | Let's Boost Our Moods by Drawing!
This week I chatted with who is obviously a creative and artistic genius.

MINISODE | What's Something That You Feel Like You "Can't" Do?

MINISODE | What's Something That You Feel Like You "Can't" Do?
This week I chatted with Sandy and Jeni from and our conversation got me thinking about how people approach things they feel like they "can't" do. It was eye-opening to me that neither Sandy nor Jeni had a software engineering background, yet here they are, creating an incredible software company. Like, have you told yourself your entire life that you "can't" do something for one reason or another? I know I have. I've told myself "I'm not athletic" "I can't draw" "I'm not smart enough/experienced enough to do XYZ" While I'm certainly not going to be the next Michael Jordan or Picasso, I can, in fact do some of these things, I just don't try because I won't be the best or the expert at it. Of course, this is perfectionism peeping it's ugly head into my subconscious again and I'm sure many of you may feel the same. It's uncomfortable to do new things but to quote marketing expert Seth Godin, "fear is a compass, not a barrier. It becomes a way to know what to do next, not an evil demon to be extinguished."Tune into this episode to find what you can do to start doing that one thing you feel like you "can't" do, but have always wanted to.

MINISODE | Other People's Perceptions of You: Do You Care Too Much?
Today's minisode we're talking about other people's perceptions and if you care too much. This week's interview with may have been a polarizing one for you guys, but I wanted to continue the conversation by talking about other people's perceptions of you and if you care too much. Here's the thing: we all to some degree, for the most part, compare ourselves to other people. It's a natural, human thing to do. It's also natural to care about what other people think about you. It's not necessarily a bad thing, to some degree it helps you be self-aware which I think is an important quality in people. But for a lot of us, we can care way too much about what other people think about us. And during my interview with Demiana and her sharing about what her friends and family thought about her career it got me thinking more on this topic. I for one am guilty of caring way too much what other's think about me. I'm a people pleaser through and through and have struggled with this my entire life.

Hello, hello and we are back from our winter break with the first minisode of 2019 and we are starting with a bang by talking about vulnerability. We've touched a little on this in a past minisode about but I want to talk more specifically about vulnerability as that was a topic we discussed thoroughly during . Being vulnerable is hard for me, like it is for almost anyone else. The reasons why it's hard for me is because I don't like being seen as weak or like I can't do something or that I don't know what I'm doing. I think most people have those fears or similar fears so even though I know I'm not alone in those feelings...being vulnerable is still hard. Nobody likes the feeling of rejection. Nobody likes the feeling of loneliness.But it's interesting, because when people are most vulnerable, we celebrate their strength. We love seeing others be so raw, honest and open but it's still difficult for us to be comfortable with sharing our own vulnerabilities. Tune in to find out the two ways I'm being more vulnerable in 2019, tips for how you can too, and my challenge on being more vulnerable. Full show notes at: Links mentioned: Like the show?

What that means is if you click on a link and then make a purchase, I make a small percentage of money because I referred you. This comes at no additional cost to you. I only share products and resources that I trust and that I know will help you in your business. Grateful for your support! Hello hello and welcome back to the podcast! Happy 2019 everyone! I can't believe we are already halfway through the first month of 2019, so crazy! Anyways, before we get to today's episode, I wanted to share a few housekeeping updates before diving in. As most of you know, this podcast is a passion project of mine and not a primary way I make income. I was feeling really burnt out from all of the work I had taken on and taking a break was really good for me. So, with that, we’ll be making some changes around here! 1) We're going to try something new for the podcast this year...we'll be doing seasons!Our "second" season will run January 15-April 2 and we will take a 6-week break in between before the third season starts. I have some fun plans for the mini-breaks though so you aren't left with no new content :)2) Minisodes will still be happening on Fridays and I'm hoping to make them more action & value-packed. I want us all to be challenged on how we can improve our days, whether it's physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, etc and I want to use these minisodes to motivate and challenge you (and me!) 3) I've decided to launch a YouTube account! I've talked about this with countless people, some even in this group, and I'm committing to making it happen this year.My biggest hesitation around starting a YouTube account for the Day in the Life has been my fear of putting it all out there.Ya see, if I'm sharing what my daily life is like, I have to share the good AND the bad AND the ugly. And that intimidates me but I'm willing myself to push past that and show up...no matter what.I haven't decided an exact date of launch yet but it's coming...and I'm putting it here so you guys can keep me accountable.SO! Now that that's out of the way... let's get to today's episode! Today's interview is with Alexis Teichmiller who is the ConvertKit Affiliate Manager. (Don't worry, if you don't know what an affiliate manager is Alexis shares exactly what that is!) Most interestingly though, I wanted to bring on Alexis because she has made it a point to share vulnerable things about your life, your relationships, your struggles, anxiety, etc on social media. She shares why this is important to her, how other people can start to feel more comfortable with sharing their vulnerabilities, what "image management" is, as well as what it's like to work for a completely remote company, and how she prioritizes her side hustle passions alongside a full-time job. Guys, I compared her to Brene Brown during the episode because she is just THAT GOOD. Excited for you to tune in and hope you enjoy! In today’s episode, you'll find out: How Alexis got started working for ConvertKit. Why it's important to Alexis to share not only the great parts of her life but also the vulnerable parts of her life, her relationships, and anxiety. What image management is and why we need to let it go. Her tips on how other people start to feel more comfortable with sharing their vulnerabilities. The best part about working at ConverKit and her experience working for a completely remote company. How she prioritizes her side hustle passions and a full time job plus advice she would give others who want to do the same. Her biggest struggles and misconceptions about her career. Her 3 non-negotiable travel items she can't live without. Full show notes at: Links mentioned: Follow Alexis: Like the show? There are several ways you can help!

MINISODE | Thoughts on Having a Life Purpose & What To Do When You Feel Like You Don't Have One
Today's minisode I'm sharing my thoughts on having a life purpose and what to do when you feel like you don't have one. I feel like in today's society, it's pushed on us to figure out our "life's purpose" otherwise we're living up to our potential. The fact is, sometimes you're going through a time in your life when it's hard to know what your exact "purpose" is and that's totally okay! Tune in to hear my thoughts on the matter. I'd love to hear your thoughts too. Feel free to hit me up on Twitter or Instagram. Full show notes at: Links mentioned: Like the show? There are several ways you can help!
