This is a great follow-up to our last episode - "How can you make this work FOR you". When you're giving away your power, deciding to make something work for you is KEY to shifting your mindset (and experience). Most people don't give their power away intentionally.

It's so easy for us to fall into a tailspin with our internal dialogue, especially when we're facing personal challenges or uncomfortable scenarios.

Affirmations, the truth your body and mind invest in, the stories we tell ourselves. I remember the "adage" - "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never break me.

As constantly changing beings, there are times in our lives where we inherently know that our time with someone no longer serves a purpose.

We're touching on some subjects early in 2021 that really speak to claiming your seat at the table (and getting to the meat of WHY you might think there isn't room for you OR someone else).

We don't know about you guys, but we believe in rising up together AND we believe that there's plenty of room at the table for everyone.

Because we're starting to realize that each of us brings something dif…

Sometimes it's easier to align actions and decisions with our goals when we have a singular focus. What if that focus was a word for the year?
