Earn Your Happy

Next time you need some inspiration to write an Instagram post or a newsletter, or even just have a tough conversation with someone in your life, I have a trick for getting your message across clearly. I want you to try writing yourself a letter from the perspective of the other person. What are their pain points? How has your product, offering, or actions affected them? Find a solution to each thing you can list out and write a letter back to them. I found that this exercise has helped me set boundaries, meet people with more compassion, and get really clear on what I’m responsible for. Try it out and tag me @loriharder on Instagram to let me know if this approach works for you!    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Understanding and addressing customer problems  Being honest about what you can and can’t do  How to get into the headspace of someone who is upset with you  Why I think this exercise is a great way to fuel content creation    RESOURCES Thanks to Earth Echo for supporting the show!

Chris and I have always created what we wished existed, and masterminds are no exception. I just got back from a life-changing trip with two women that I formed a mini mastermind group with, and I wanted to break down how you can do the same. I explain where this idea came from, how we’ve built the container to do it, and the non-negotiables that we’ve set for this group. Chris and I also discuss why masterminds are crucial for both personal and business growth, and how to take the first step to create or join one today.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Imagining what’s possible when you create your own mastermind container  Why we recommend connecting with your group in-person  The best habit to get into for forming long-lasting relationships  The power of having checkpoints for accountability    RESOURCES Thanks to Earth Echo for supporting Earn Your Happy!

When you start living authentically in every aspect of your life, you’ll magnetize the right people and opportunities into your orbit. This isn’t always an easy and graceful process, but I promise that it’s worth it.

Everything from what’s on your plate, how you move your body, who you spend your time with, and what tasks are in your schedule affects your future self.

I always say that I’m a graduate of “Google University” because instead of giving up when I don’t know something, I put it right into my search bar and go down the rabbit hole. Everytime we tell ourselves that we can’t do something or don’t have the resources, that’s the exact moment when we strip ourselves of our power. In today’s episode, I share my favorite exercise for formulating questions and discovering answers. I promise that when you start to feel confident in your ability to get inquisitive and figure stuff out, that’s when success starts to compound.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Getting comfortable with not having all the answers immediately laid out for you  Reframing what’s holding you back into research questions  Being honest with yourself if something is genuinely hard, or it’s just going to take more time and thought than you anticipated  Why I prefer to focus on the next first step, not the end goal    RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!
