Dealing with Loneliness EP#288

Dealing with Loneliness EP#288

_____________

BBeing alone.

It’s likely that those two words spark an emotion in you. If you’re a self-lovin’ introvert, those words may sound like heaven, but I would guess a majority of people view “being alone” as a negative and undesirable situation. Our society glorifies busy-ness and applauds shutting down our emotions, so is really that surprising that so many people grapple with loneliness? I think not. Not to mention that the idea of NOT being partnered in some way leaves many people feeling like there must be something wrong with them. I mean… no one in a relationship is lonely… Right? Right!? Um. Not exactly.

The reality is – We feel loneliness for a number of reasons, two of them being 1) An overwhelming desire to connect with others and 2) An inability to be comfortable with self. Now, you might be thinking, “No shit! Of course I want to connect with others!” But, it’s not always that simple. You may be surrounded by a TON of people, have a vast social network, and still feel lonely as fuck. Why? Because your current relationships aren’t intimate and rich, leaving you wanting for more.

Or perhaps you find yourself in the latter category… just not comfortable being alone with who you are… your thoughts and emotions. Regardless which camp you may fall in (or a hybrid of both), I sound off on exactly what you can do to bust through the loneliness you feel, reclaim your personal power, and create amazing, rich connections in your life.

This pod explores:

  • A new, empowering perspective around the word “loneliness” + how it will instantly make you feel a shit-ton better
  • How keeping your walls up is keeping you lonely AF
  • How to take an inventory of your current relationships to gauge the richness and intimacy
  • How to deal if you feel like you don’t deserve rich connections

I NEED CLOSURE! How to Stop Waiting for Closure + Start Creating Your Own EP#286

I NEED CLOSURE! How to Stop Waiting for Closure + Start Creating Your Own EP#286

 

.  

_____________

EEver find yourself attached to the idea that you really need closure for something you’ve experienced? Maybe you have a friend who ghosted you and you’re left wondering what-the-hell happened. Maybe you are plagued by needing to know the real reason you were let go from the job. Or maybe you are still waiting on an apology from a family member… or an ex.

Our brain naturally wants a conclusion to the stories of our life, so if you feel like you’ve been left hanging, it can feel damn-near impossible to “move on” unless you get the closure you are craving. What we often don’t realize is that placing so much emphasis on the other person actually renders us powerless. Think about it… we’re essentially saying “I can only be happy and move on if this other person magically gives me what I want.” That’s a shit ton of power to give away, my love.

Here’s the great news: There are actually plenty of things you can do, like today, to cultivate your own element of closure. This episode will walk you through five ways you can change your notion about what you need to move on, harness your personal power, and get on with your badass life already!

This pod explores:

  • How to nail down the real reason you’re holding on
  • Figuring out exactly what you need to DO to feel at peace closing this chapter
  • The one thing you are probably avoiding that will catapult your healing like you wouldn’t believe
  • How to create your own closure ritual… because, you know… PERSONAL POWER

5 Daily Happiness Hacks EP#285

5 Daily Happiness Hacks EP#285

Free Worksheet

 

.  

_____________

IIf you’ve been diggin’ into personal development, you’ve undoubtedly realized that you don’t get many results by simply hoarding “good ideas”. You know what I’m talking about… scrollin’ through Insta or Facebook, double-tappin’ it up on inspiring messages, or reading a powerful book but not DOING anything with the info.

If you ever fall into this trap, honey, you are soooo not alone. It’s kinda like reading a book on Pilates and expecting to get a rockin’ body. Um, no. Gotta hit the mat, Babycakes!

Here’s the deal… creating change in your life is all about your habits. The shit you do day-in and day-out. It’s about monitoring the way you spend your time, energy, and self-talk so you are working towards happiness and fulfillment instead of entertaining a bunch of shit you DON’T want.

Alright, great. So, how do you do this? It all starts with your thoughts and creating a “compound effect” in one of the five areas we chat about today. Have a listen as I sound off on 5, different (easy) habits you can start instituting in your life to create a massive dose of happiness… on the regular.

This pod explores:

  • The subconscious message you’re telling yourself by not speaking up for yourself… and the simple step you can take to knock that shit off
  • How you can say “No” with the utmost grace and kindness, but without over-explaining and making a shit-ton of excuses (and, uh-hem, LIES)
  • The #1, biggest key to unlocking confidence and a love of yourself
  • How to examine your common, go-to behaviors to see if you have been unknowingly shooting yourself in the foot (don’t worry… it’s an easy fix)

7 Reasons Goals Fail + How to Make Sure Yours Don’t EP#284

7 Reasons Goals Fail + How to Make Sure Yours Don’t EP#284

 

.  

_____________

AAt the start of every year, it’s likely you get pumped up and excited to make some serious change. You decide on a handful of things that you are GOING to conquer this year, god-damn-it! But what actually makes those goals a reality?

Throughout my decade-plus in this work, I have found that noble intentions have very little to do with bringing goals to fruition. Good ol’ fashioned gumption and desire are not enough to make your dreams come true. [sad trombone]

But never fear, this episode targets seven ways people tend to sabotage their own goals (without even realizing it) and how you can set yourself up to slaaaaay all your goals. It’s not rocket science, but if you can employ some of these easy tactics, you will kill all your 2019 goals! Yes, please!

This pod explores:

  • My favorite tool to use to ensure you are tackling this goal for YOU (instead of mom/fam/boss/society)
  • The number one way people lose steam while working towards a goal and how you can smoothly move beyond this obstacle like a BOSS
  • Why you need accountability and people in your life to support you and what to do if you don’t
  • How to keep your self-talk on point so you are constantly encouraged, kicking ass, and taking names

Free Worksheet

 

.  

_____________

IIf you’re like most people, you have an overwhelming sense of excitement and ambition come the new year. Also like most people, perhaps you hit Jan gang-busters-style, but when Feb rolls around you have slowly begun to lose steam, fervor, and action. Many people (and maybe YOU) enter the New Year with many plans and intentions, but somehow end up a bit off track sooner than later.

In this episode, I address the biggest obstacles people unknowingly establish for themselves when crafting New Year’s goals and “resolutions”. Yep, you read that right… many people actually make their job a shit-ton harder by not setting themselves up for success to begin with. I also share my personal planning tool I use to ensure I establish solid goals in aaaaall areas of my life (not just fitness and money… but, yes, those too). Be sure to grab your free planning guide so you can plan and organize a seriously epic 2019 by figuring out what categories in which you would like to make headway. Plus, you’ll have a sexy, little worksheet to record all your brilliance!

This pod explores:

  • The two biggest mistakes people make when crafting goals for the new year
  • How to assess where you are in your life now and where you want to be in a year’s time
  • How to create goals that are really about YOUR fulfillment, are totally attainable, and light you up
  • Why you probably don’t want to celebrate your 2018 accomplishments, but you kinda, absolutely MUST

_____________

SSo… You’ve checked all the boxes. You got a good education. You settled down and got married. You pursued the career. You even bought the house, had the kids, the whole thing. And yet, you still wake up some days wondering, “Is this all there is? Is thisit?” And maybe you even ask yourself, “What can’t I just be fucking HAPPY!? What is the secret to happiness!!?”

In this week’s episode, I spill 6 suuuuper common ways you may be stifling your own happiness and ALL of them are typically done subconsciously… so yeah, you prob have no idea you’re even doing them! Have a listen and get your happy back. Boom.

This pod explores:

  • Why your value system is EVERYTHING and probably the biggest factor in your personal joy (even though it’s such a YAWN! topic… I get it)
  • Why your routine and auto-pilot schedule may be squashing your happiness + how to shift it

How to Stop Feeling Guilty EP#281

How to Stop Feeling Guilty EP#281

 

.  

_____________

DDid you know that we experience guilt for a very specific reason? That it’s actually designed to help us? Wait, WHAT?

And, no, it’s not so you can feel like shit when your mom tells you how disappointed she is that you don’t call often enough or so you feel awful for declining an invite to a party you soooo don’t want to go to. Guilt is actually designed to alert us when we’ve done something wrong… something we aren’t proud of – NOT for when someone simply doesn’t like our choices. Oh, shit, really?

Recently a listener penned the show asking how to deal with the nagging sense of guilt and “feeling bad” that she experienced with little requests and jabs from her close friends and family members. I mean… we have all been there. So what do you do about it? If it’s not your fault, then why do you feel so shitty?

Well, that’s where I come in, Babycakes. In this episode, I break down the real-deal about Guilt – how to change what you “feel bad” about, how to identify your biggest triggers, and my absolute FAV tool for giving Guilt a nice, fatty drop-kick.

This pod explores:

  • Your new go-to question to ask yourself the minute you feel guilt about something (Hint, it’ll snap you out of it reeeal quick)
  • How to identify the people and scenarios that send you on an epic guilt trip so you can switch that shit up!
  • A game-changing tool you can use today to take you from a guilty mess to a powerful badass
  • Why you absolutely HAVE TO stop saying “But, I feel bad!” or “I feel guilty though!” and what to say instead (and, you won’t end up a heartless bitch #pinkyswear)

6 Ways To Deal With Grief During The Holidays EP#280

6 Ways To Deal With Grief During The Holidays EP#280

 

.  

_____________

EEver feel like you just can’t quite enjoy the holidays because you’re in the middle of an emotional shitstorm that seems to make the season trying, stressful, and overwhelming? Maybe it’s your first holiday after being newly divorced. Or maybe it’s the fifth Christmas without your beloved mother, and you can’t seem to understand why it’s still so damn hard for you. Or perhaps you just moved your family across the country and although it was an amazing decision for you, you still find yourself incredibly nostalgic, overly emotional, and sensitive.

If any of that sounds familiar, it’s likely that there is something in your world that needs a little processing. (And, no there’s nothing wrong with you.) Perhaps what’s tugging at you is the need for full-on grieving the loss of a loved one, which feels exacerbated by the sentimental tone of the holiday. Or perhaps it’s as simple as “a case of the blues” because you’ve changed jobs and aren’t able to do the gift exchange with your previous company you were with for ages.

Whatever you may be going through in your life, if you’ve created any changes in patterns, it’s likely that there may be a bit (or a shit ton) of emotion to work through… especially during this time of year. Even if you don’t think grief is called for, have a listen through this episode where I share six things you can do to work through all the “feels” you’re having during this temperamental time. And, P.S. dealing with your feels doesn’t mean you’re weak, too dramatic, or too sensitive. It just means you’re fucking human. And, brave.

This pod explores:

  • The real reason why you might be drinking too much, eating too much, or spending too much during the season
  • The best way to set yourself up for success if you KNOW the holidays will make your current life circumstances extra tough
  • How to let go of the past in a powerful way and create a new, empowered meaning behind the season
  • Who you should (and should not) be turning to for support

6 Ways To Manage Holiday Stress EP#279

 

.  

_____________

EEven though the holiday season is supposed to be all merry and bright and full of glad tidings, it’s quite certain that you’ve found yourself engaged with total overwhelm, buckling from the stress, and dangerously approaching burnout. Although fun and festive, it can take a sheer act of god to keep you from losing your ever-lovin’ mind during the chaos of this time of year, amiright!?

If it’s not the multitude of gifts to buy or the food to prep, then it’s surely the family drama or workplace obligations that bring you to your breaking point. And while you’re spending money on shit you don’t want to buy or baking food for people you don’t even enjoy very much, you find yourself wondering why the fucking peace on earth has eluded you. But, lord help you if you don’t show up to the office party with the secret santa gift or all hell might break loose if you tell the in-laws you can’t make it this year.

If you have found yourself overloaded by holiday stress and obligations, get ready for a huge sigh of relief. On this week’s show, I sound off on six things you can start doing immediately to relinquish all the holiday overwhelm and chaos so you can actually enjoy the things about this time of year that truly mean the most to you.

This pod explores:

  • How your attachment to things being P E R F E C T may be causing you unnecessary stress and overwhelm
  • My favorite tool to figure out exactly how (and with whom) I want to spend my time and energy
  • How to decline unwanted invitations with the utmost grace and kindness… because, you need some downtime, Babycakes!
  • How to not get sucked into other people’s holiday stress and obligations
