Having support in life can make such a difference, with confidence and assurance.

Not feeling supported can also have an impactful effect, making us doubt and question ourselves.

Whether or not you feel supported can have a lot to do with your personal belief and perspective, your willingness to share and open up to invite others in, and how much you rely on others for your decision-making.

Today we're diving into the reality of others' comments, our need for building our personal confidence and assurance, and how to better support those we care about too.

XO,

Shannon

Making decisions can be scary, for anyone - but learning to trust ourselves and taking action, whether big or small, helps build self-confidence.

Avoiding stagnation helps with self-discipline, clarity, and builds experience.

We can learn from others, but learning to also trust ourselves and that we don't need permission for decisions that affect our life is freeing and empowering.

XO,

Shannon

There is good and unhealthy selfishness.

Practicing healthy selfishness is necessary for our overall well-being and productivity.

Whether you're a people-pleaser or not, selfishness is good for your health (physical and mental) and relationships.

We show up better for others when we're taking care of ourselves, it's simply a fact.

Life happens. We can either act surprised or make a plan.

Like the seasons of the year, life has patterns and cycles too. How we embrace the change, adapt, and plan set us up for success with our attitude, habits, and outcomes.

You don't have to do it alone, and you can help your stress and anxiety levels, let's talk about how together!

Just because something seems complex, confusing, overwhelming, difficult, or involved does not make it better. Simple can be better and should be our goal.

As Albert Einstein said, "if you can't explain it simple, you don't understand it well enough."

We need to keep the main thing the main thing, as Stephen Covey says in his book, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (linked below).

Don't get tricked into trying to do everything and it needing to be stressful and overwhelming all the time. Do what you are meant to well, and keep it simple - for everyone's sake.

January always seems like an entire year in itself, which is amazing ... but now it's February, and we need a plan.

If you can feel the pace picking up and the volume all-around getting louder, we need to learn and practice intentionally quieting the noise of life.

Your stress level, sanity, and peace matter. Let's choose wisely for our health and overall well-being.

Can you believe this is the last week of January already?!

How's it going for you?

Are you staying committed and consistent to the things you said you were going to do? What systems have you put in place, or have you realized you need a system but aren't sure what to do?

Today I want us to talk about planners, your different options, and the fact that it isn't a one-size-fits-all, despite what marketing teams may have you think.

You can do this, don't get discouraged.

Happy New Year!

Did 2024 kind sneak up on anyone else?

I love how a new year feels like A Fresh Start (perfect for this podcast!) and clean slate. With that, comes fresh perspective.

Many people make bid audacious claims with no plan. I stopped focusing on the BIG goals with a new year because they can quickly become overwhelming, unsure what to do or where to start. This episode explains my change and what I encourage for you too to see a productive, intentional year of growth.
