In this fan favorite replay episode, I'm discussing when I launched a new product in my coaching business. It was exciting and yet a little nerve-wracking to put myself out there by doing something new. After the launch, I began to get feedback about a typo found in one of my new product emails. It wasn't a big deal, but it did make me stop to think.

It caused me to reflect on how we interact with one another. We often point out mistakes to others because we want to be helpful, but is it really helpful or not?

This experience gave me an opportunity to think about how I respond to others, the feedback I give, and whether my intention is to empower women. I hope this episode gives you the same opportunity for reflection.

We all experience struggles and trials. Despite the struggles, it is possible to find ways to celebrate every day.

In this episode, I share ways that I am choosing to celebrate even though this has been a difficult year for our society, my life, and my business.

In Today's Episode We Discuss:

• Why the extraordinary is in the ordinary

• How to feel gratitude daily despite life's challenges

• How every day can feel special

• What a gratitude inventory can do to shift your perspective

My hope in sharing the small and simple ways that I am celebrating each day is to help you see the things in your life that are worthy of notice. We all have things that we can be grateful for, so I hope you can choose to focus on those things more often in order to feel more joy.

I'm sharing a personal story about my little lemon tree and how it has helped me keep a growth mindset. Often, growth is internal and can't be easily measured. However, it still has great value.

Listen in for a loving reminder, especially during difficult seasons of life, that growth is not always linear. I hope after tuning in, you will be able to spot the situations in your life where you are actually experiencing growth that may not be easily seen.

I once came upon a beautiful quote by Marianne Williamson. It said, "Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to realize how good things really are."

What does it mean to have joy in your life? It is so easy to confuse joy and happiness as the same thing, but are they? Recently, I spent some time coaching a client on how to bring more joy into the everyday activities of her life. This is one of my favorite topics to coach on since I strive to live my life with the intent of having joy - extreme happiness, fulfillment, and savoring moments of bliss.

Listen in as I discuss easy ways to find joy in the everyday tasks where you spend your time so that you can feel greater satisfaction in your daily life.

In Today's Episode We Discuss:

• How to replenish energy and find more joy in your day

• The difference between happiness and joy

• Questions to ask yourself to determine what brings you joy

• My favorite Marianne Williamson quote about joy

• How to bring joy into the little moments of your day

• A grounding exercise to foster feelings of joy

I hope that by spending a few minutes listening to this episode, you will feel inspired to bring more joy into the day to day activities of your life. It is truly the secret to feeling fulfilled and satisfied with your life - no matter the circumstances.

What happens when the person who creates all the holiday magic realizes she's running on empty? In this episode, I'm getting honest about a moment when I completely unraveled over something as simple as a Christmas tree—and why that moment revealed so much more beneath the surface. I share the invisible emotional labor so many high-achieving women carry this time of year, how "good enough" never feels like enough, and why holiday cheer can so easily hide burnout, resentment, and exhaustion.

I'm also breaking down the shift from being the holiday magician—the one who makes everything sparkle—to becoming the holiday architect who designs the season with intention, boundaries, and shared responsibility. From identifying your real non-negotiable magic to releasing the things you've outgrown, this episode is a grounded, compassionate look at reclaiming joy during a season that often asks for more than it gives.

In today's episode, I am going to walk you through the 3 questions you should ask yourself daily if you want to feel focused and in control of your time. I love waking up and enjoying a cup of coffee in silence before the rest of my house gets up for the day. This quiet time allows me to sit with myself and think about my core values. I think about my priorities, plan out my day, and get in the right frame of mind so I can move throughout my day with purpose and intention.

I developed these questions for myself and now use them as one of the first exercises I do with my coaching clients. These questions lead them to feel more focused and in control of their time.

For many people, including myself, to-do lists can often feel daunting and heavy. I have actually gotten away from using a to-do list and now spend my energy on my top priorities that will move my business and life forward.

How do you spend your morning? I encourage you to start using these questions as you start your day.

Reach out to me on Instagram and share your answers with me and I will share mine! I love hearing from you!

It's the time of year when so many of us are doing a lot of retail shopping. I know that with the crazy year we've all had, it feels so simple just to order everything online and call it a day. However, I'm here with a short episode to remind us why it's important to support the small business owners in your community.

I have so many business owners in my Leading Ladies Facebook community, and I am a small business owner myself. Support from our local community is truly the lifeblood of our business.

I am excited to share the many ways you can support local business owners in this episode.

I hope this quick episode serves as a reminder for all of us to shop small wherever possible. Find ways to support your friends and neighbors in business in whatever way you are able.
