The High Vibe Life Podcast

Diana Blinkhorn  (aka @mrsblinks )  is a professional content creator, social media strategist, and owner of TheGrayRuby.com . On this episode I get to pick her brain on what it takes to create OUTSTANDING content in this ever-evolving landscape.     We get really honest about motherhood, fulfillment and examine all the ways that Diana experimented with creativity in her own home (she tried everything from making bows for her daughters to selling jewelry on Instagram) until she finally found her identity and how she wanted to show up as a stay at home mom AND entrepreneur in the social media space.   Fast forward to last year when Diana backpacked across Europe with her husband and her three young girls. (Yes, you read that right.) She shared her experience on Tik Tok + Instagram and discovered that it really resonated with families out there. She has now tripled her income and her husband is even changing jobs to come and work for her.  How cool is that???   This episode is chock full of tips and tricks for how to work with brands on social media and gives the listener a peek behind the curtain at what it really looks like to be an influencer.    You can find Diana on Instagram + Tik Tok @mrsblinks     Got a suggestion for a guest?  Drop it in an email or just share your favorite moment of a recent episode by emailing Moira at Moirakucaba8@gmail.com     RISE UP WITH US!!!   Click here for The Rise Up Course Click here for the Rise Up Planner  

What do we do when we feel directionless? In the beginning of 2021 I was recognized as the top coach in my company.  This was a goal that I had worked towards every. single. day. for six years! Despite my success I felt….flat.    So what happens when we want to dig ourselves out of a funk??  If you need a little direction like I did, you’re in luck.   In this episode I share 4 TANGIBLE steps to get you out of that rut and onto your next big goal.   1. Identify what lights you up.   2. Set a time bound goal.   3. Write out 3 action steps you can take immediately!!   4. Surround yourself with people that will hold you accountable and call you out.     One of the ways I decided to shake things up was by setting a goal for myself that had absolutely nothing to do with professional success.  I decided that I wanted to surf 100 waves. This goal lead to me spontaneously book a trip to Costa Rica for me and my daughter.  It was on that trip that I surfed my 100th wave and I will forever remeber the view from my board. This moment is now one of my greatest memories and such a beautiful reminder to see the gift in the struggle.   If you’re at a spot in your life thats low, use it.  It truly can be the biggest gift.     Got a suggestion for a guest?  Drop it in an email or just share your favorite moment of a recent episode by emailing Moira at Moirakucaba8@gmail.com     RISE UP WITH US!!!   Click here for The Rise Up Course Click here for the Rise Up Planner

My guest today is Chris Singleton.  Chris is a former minor league baseball player who was drafted by the Chicago Cubs. He has since become a nationally renowned speaker who speaks on the message of resilience, forgiveness and unity.    After Chris lost his mother in the 2015 Mother Emanuel Church Tragedy, he found that the only way for him to move forward was to no longer harbor his pain but to use it to help others and to promote unity and forgiveness.  This conversation was heavy and emotional but it’s such a beautiful reminder that we can all use especially in light of the recent mass shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde.    As we all grapple with how to make a difference and how to have these difficult conversations, Chris’ wisdom and powerful message are one that I know we all need to hear.     Chris speaks on his early life, what happened after he lost his mother and how he delivers his message of unity to middle schoolers and C-suite executives alike.     Find out more about Chris by going to: https://www.chrissingleton.com       RISE UP WITH US!!!   Click here for The Rise Up Course Click here for the Rise Up Planner   Keep your suggestions coming by emailing me at Moirakucaba8@gmail.com

Whether you want to call to it God or The Universe or whatever, I believe that we are constantly being guided by this still small voice within and when you tune in and listen to the whisper your life starts to open up in ways that are nothing short of magical.     On this show I share a few personal stories about times that I have “listened to the whisper” and how dramatically these “whispers” have shaped my life.     When I was at the depths of my struggle with alcohol I “listened to the whisper” and found myself being called to become a Pilates instructor even though I had never even taken a Pilates class.   At the time it seemed so random but this became the foundation for so many things that have gotten me to where I am today. I know, it sounds crazy but trust me, listening to that whisper even when your head can't make sense of it has taken me on the most amazing journey.   It is my hope that hearing my stories in today’s episode will inspire you to tune in and listen to that little whisper in your own life and watch the magic unfold.     RISE UP WITH US!!!   Click here for The Rise Up Course Click here for the Rise Up Planner  

Amberly Lago is literally unstoppable.  She sits down with Moira to dig deep into her incredible story and share how she overcame harrowing circumstances and went on to become a wildly successful author, speaker, podcast host and inspirational figure who truly walks the talk.   After her parents divorced at an early age Amberly became the victim of unspeakable sexual abuse at the hands of her stepfather and though she eventually mustered up the courage to ask for help her cries were ignored.  She was an accomplished athlete and dancer who managed to save enough money to move herself out of her small town in Texas and chase her dreams out West.   When she booked a gig in LA as a dancer in an MC Hammer video her career began to take off, she met the man of her dreams and they started a beautiful life together.  But when her youngest daughter was only 2 years old she was tragically hit by an SUV while riding her motorcycle home from work and nearly lost her life.  Amberly shares the horrifying aftermath of nearly losing her leg and enduring 34 surgeries only to find that she was now in constant and excruciating pain.    Amberly speaks candidly about her subsequent struggles with addiction and why moving her body not only saved her (this woman had a pull up bar installed above her hospital bed!) body but also her mind. Her humor and candor are refreshing and inspiring and her story will leave you on the edge of your seat.   Follow Amberly on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amberlylagomotivation   Find Out More About Amberly's Work: https://amberlylago.com   Buy Amberly's Book ‘Grit and Grace’  https://amberlylago.com/book/   PLUS!
