158: Riff Episode: Challenges I'm Facing Lately, What I'm Doing About It + What's Helping Me Grow
I’m gonna be real with you. I’ve been feeling like I’m in an awkward stage in my business right now. And by awkward, I mean…
I’ve been feeling a heaviness around not having everything figured out yet with the direction I’m taking my business
I’ve been feeling like I have SO MANY ideas, but confused on which ones to focus on - so I end up stalling
I’ve been feeling like my world has been turned upside down since becoming a mom and I’m still navigating my way around how to peacefully flow through some challenges that arise with being a new parent
(And more explained in today’s podcast episode!)
Have you been feeling any of these feels lately too? In case you have, instead of keeping this all to myself, I want to share it with you so that 👇🏻
You feel less alone if you’re also feeling like you don’t quite have everything figured out the way you want to in your business right now
You can piggy back off me and my MIND BLOWING realizations I’ve had recently about how to get through this phase in my life feeling empowered instead of it feeling like it’s hard to breath at times!
If you know me, you know I HATE small talk, so I go DEEP in today’s episode and I’m talking all about challenges I’m facing lately, what I’m doing about it, and what’s helping me grow.
I’m trying something different with this new “riff” style of podcast where I dive in with no plan and no script. I call this episode my “riff” episode because I literally grabbed my podcast mic, and started openly sharing with the intention of it feeling like I’m just chatting on the phone with you 📞
Tune in to discover:
✨ How I’m navigating my “awkward” phase
✨ The “radio station” analogy for how different realities exist all around us all the time (and how we can simply choose the reality we desire)
✨ Questions you can ask yourself when faced with challenges to keep you out of negative spiraling
✨ What motherhood is teaching me
✨ Why life challenges are actually gifts that bring you closer to your higher selves
✨ How to look for the “gain” so you can stay motivated and productive
✨ Why focusing on the “gap” is where all the suffering happens
✨ A simple explanation of quantum physics that’ll help you make better, more aligned decisions
✨ Why it’s normal to alternate between seasons of flow and seasons of resistance & uncertainty
