10X Goals with Mia Moran

Do you go broad or deep with your goals? As women, with lots of hats to wear, we tend to go broad, but when you go deep, your intention has less competition. That’s the premise behind 10x goals and the book 10X Is Easier Than 2X.I share one of my favorite exercises from the book based on the gap and the gain. I talk you through how to do it, and what it actually looks like in practice, so that you can create a measurable goal that you can get to based on a past that you're in love with.I talk about:How the book is geared 100% toward entrepreneurs, but this exercise works for any part of your lifeFinding the right energy to plan from The gap and the gain and how making choices from the gap means we measure against an impossible idealHow gain allowing you measure what’s next for you based on a past you are excited aboutCreating a ritual for the 10X Jumps exerciseMy example of the 10X Jumps exercise, so you can see how it really worksDOABLE CHANGE10X JUMPS EXERCISE.

Then sit with a journal and list out all the amazing things you've done throughout your life. Name what happened in each phase of your life, chronologically. Then write what you let go of to make each thing happen. Include the current phase of your life in this process. What is happening? What are you willing to let go of?LINKS10X Is Easier Than 2X book

Pivots and Your Akashic Records with Rosalyn Fung

“I'm very bold and unapologetic about my self care.” –Rosalyn FungWhat happens when a pivot looks like giving up everything you’ve worked for? Rosalyn Fung left a thriving psychology practice to become a coach. We talk about her entrepreneurial journey, the breakdown that led her to learn about the spiritual practices that she now uses with clients, and how hiring a speaking coach made a difference.One of the challenges of a major pivot / break with what you were doing is the reaction of others. In Rosalyn’s case her parents worried about her leaving behind the career she had worked so hard for. Have you ever worried about leaving something you worked hard for? Here’s a reminder, it’s okay to change your mind.And what about balance? It’s not 50-50 time, but how the energy flows between different parts of her life. For her that starts with being in relationship with herself.We talk about: What Akashic Records are (I had no idea) and how she uses them herself and with clients to quantum leap resultsHer morning routine and other ways she takes care of herself (start by responding to yourself, not the world)Building self-trust by creating goals, committing to them and taking action on that commitmentShifting your energy to stop attracting nightmare clients or to get past money, time, or other blocksThe importance of honoring our feelingsHow productivity is creativity — and why breaks are essentialABOUT ROSALYNRosalyn Fung is an Akashic Visionary Life & Business Soul Coach, Facilitator & Trainer of Flourishing Life Coaching Certification Program, speaker, 3x international best-selling author, former psychologist, mastermind, and workshop facilitator on the topics of feminine leadership, self-love, mastering your energy, money mindset & attraction marketing.

Change comes from action. Doable changes are things that you can add into your life, one at a time to make micro shifts and really create a ripple effect that will create a big change over time. Choose one that really piques your interest and roll with it. Here are three Doable Changes from this conversation:START YOUR DAY WITH YOU. Instead of picking up your phone, turning on the radio, or opening email, choose a practice to start your morning that tunes you into you. Rosalyn sits with the Akashic Records. You could start with meditation, journaling, a quiet walk.TAKE A SACRED PAUSE. Pauses bring us into the realm of possibilities, of opening up new ideas because we're not burning out. Make a list of ways you would like to take breaks during the day. Then take at least one break each day this week.SIT WITH YOUR FEELINGS. We tend to judge our emotions and try to rush past or ignore them. If you have big feelings coming up—fear, sadness, anger—what happens if you allow some time to sit with and process those emotions instead of just pushing through?

Branding is Spiritual with Tiffany Neuman

Choose the one that really resonates with you this week and really make it part of your life. Here are Three Doable Changes from this conversation:GET OUTSIDE THE BOTTLE. Tiffany likes to say you can’t see the label from inside the bottle. It can be hard to describe what we do. Ask your clients to tell you what they would tell a friend. This might work best on a call or live session. You aren’t asking for a testimonial, just a clearer understanding of what you do for people.NOTICE YOUR CATCH PHRASES. What are you known for? What do you say all the time? Make a list or jot things down as you say it. Are you using these phrases in your content?VISION ABOUT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE. Vision about where you want to be in a few years. You want to create your brand around your future vision, not your “now” business. Get clear on where you are going. Then, if you need it, get help to create the brand around that.

Use Your Cycle with Renae Fieck

“When women actually start to lean into and embrace their cycle, it becomes like your superpower.” –Renae FieckYour cycle is more than your periods. Too often we are only aware of our period, but working with the four parts of our cycle can make a huge difference in our work and life. I’ve been paying more attention to my cycle for a few years now, and I’m really excited for this conversation with Renae Fieck, cycle coach and business strategist.If you pay attention, you’re likely to notice different energies and moods throughout each month of your cycle. Renae has dubbed them: the recharge, the accelerate phase, the connect phase, and the reflect phase. You can work with these phases instead of trying to push through them.No, you can’t plan your whole life around your cycle, but you can still organize some of your work around them. You can also be kinder to yourself when you need to do something not at the optimal time. And you can make other changes in your life to support yourself through the various stages.We talk about: What happens when we create space for ourselves and follow our rhythm Ways to track what’s happening — noticing goes a long way. Seasonal and other long term cycles in our livesShifting your exercise throughout your cycleFinding more confidence and turning your cycle into your superpowerWhat it looks like for women who don’t have a cycle nowABOUT RENAERenae is a mom of 3 and occupational therapist. She helps women optimize their time and energy through unlocking the power of their cycles so that they can be thriving high achievers.

Change comes from action.Sometimes action feels so hard. You can be kind to yourself and take action. Our cycles are a great example of how! And we can also take care of ourselves by making the steps doable and focusing on one thing at a time. We take time to integrate the change and then move on to the next one. Pick a Doable Change that resonates with you the most to start from. TUNE INTO YOUR BODY. Working with your cycle starts with noticing your cycle. You can use tools to track your basal body temperature. But you can also simply ask: How am I feeling today? What's actually happening in my body? What does my body need today? Keep it short and simple.CREATE SPACE AROUND YOUR PERIOD. For this part of your cycle, create space for yourself. Take a social media break to cut the noise. Get into nature. Do things that help you recharge.CYCLE SYNC YOUR WORKOUTS. What if you didn’t do the same workout all through the month? Try adapting the intensity to your cycle. For example, sleeping in and easy yoga during your period and higher intensity later in your cycle. See what happens if you make changes that reflect how your body feels.

Creativity, Productivity, and ADHD with Beryl Young

“Creativity isn't just art. It's not just fun crafts or photography. Creativity is learning to step outside the box and create in different ways.” –Beryl YoungHow do creativity, productivity, and ADHD come together? What about a job in an accounting focused business and creativity or a job and entrepreneurship? We talk about what creativity really is, getting diagnosed later in life, and flowing between a job and running your own business with creativity coach Beryl Young.Beryl really wants people to see creativity as more than just art, fun crafts, or photography. She manages to infuse creativity into a job in the accounting world. She says creativity is just a way that we solve our problems and we find fulfillment during the day. It’s essential self-care. But we often see creativity as extra, and some people find creativity intimidating. Beryl was diagnosed with ADHD when she was 40, after her daughter's diagnosis. I’m seeing more and more women who flew under the radar and are now getting diagnosed. Beryl has found a lot in the creative entrepreneur space, and it's an important piece of the conversation. In addition to creativity and ADHD, we talk about:reinventing yourself, again and again, as a creative actbeing creative with structure — and burnout happening when we are constantly overflowing structureletting go of workaholic tendencies and remembering to be creative how creativity feels extra, what it really is, and how to weave it into your daysletting go of perfectionism and asking what you need creatively on a given dayhow many different ways you can be creativeABOUT BERYLBeryl Young is a creativity coach who supports women in finding greater productivity through sparks of creative self-care. Formally diagnosed at age 40 with ADHD, she realized just how much she’s relied on creativity throughout her life to harness her neurodivergent traits and thrive. Using tools like mindful photography, intentional journaling, and conscious doodling helps women cultivate more space in the chaos of daily life and show up with greater courage and confidence. Beryl previously was the creator and founder of the Momtography photography method and her work has been featured on TODAY parents, Huffington Post, PicMonkey, Digital Photography School, & The Shameless Mom Academy.LINKSFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/beyoungcreativepageOpt-In: https://beyoungcreative.com/sparkstudiosignup/https://beyoungcreative.com/100stepsplansimple/Instagram: @creating.courage OR @100stepsprojectDOABLE CHANGESAt the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action.

Choose one that really piques your interest and roll with it. Here are three Doable Changes from this conversation:10-MINUTE RULE. If you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed, stop what you're doing and take 10 minutes to do something. It could be tidying up a corner of your home that's just for you, setting up your creative space, making a playlist that you love.OWN YOUR CREATIVITY. Do you get intimidated by the idea of creativity because you don’t like results or can’t find the time? What if you started noticing how you are creative throughout your days? Are you creative in your gardening or in planning your workouts? Did you figure out a new way to do something? Did you get out of your comfort zone? When we broaden the lens and see creativity differently, it’s easier to see ourselves as creative and make room for more creativity in our lives.PUT STRUCTURE AROUND YOUR CREATIVITY. Sometimes it feels like structure or planning and creativity don’t mix. Try putting some open structure around your creativity. Build some white time into your calendar. Use a journal prompt or challenge to make you do something, like Beryl’s 100 Step Project. Focus on the doing, not the result.

Sleep Better with Kali Patrick

“If you can rest your body, if you can rest your mind, sleep just happens. It's a side effect.” –Kali PatrickCan’t sleep? It’s the worst. Whether you can’t fall asleep or stay asleep or get quality sleep, not sleeping impacts everything! Sleep is a hot topic in the FLOW365 community right now, and I know too many women who aren’t getting enough sleep. That’s why I’m so excited about this conversation with Kali Patrick, an adult sleep coach.Poor sleep affects movement, mood, and what we eat, so you really need to prioritize sleep when we are making time for your health. What does “good sleep” even mean? First, Kali says we need to look at our whole sleep experience, not one night. We often create bigger sleep problems by getting in our own head about one or two bad nights of sleep.The first step is actually having a sleep vision. “I need to sleep better” isn’t going to motivate you. You need to ask yourself: What’s important about getting better sleep?We talk about: Setting sleep goals — and knowing how to support yourself to get there with doable changesGiving yourself enough sleep opportunity and setting boundaries with yourself and others to promote good sleepHow to deal with middle of the night wakingSimplifying your bedtime routineThe difference between recreation, rest, and sleep … and how it affects what you do before bedHave a sleep rhythm and understanding that you can get back to if you choose or end up out of it for a nightABOUT KALIKali Patrick is an adult sleep coach and #1 bestselling author of Mastering Your Sleep Puzzle: Your 12-Week Guide to Sleeping Better. She helps stressed-out tired people reclaim their sleep, energy, & enthusiasm for life. Kali blends her training as a nationally-board certified health & wellness coach and therapeutically-trained yoga teacher into a practical and flexible approach to help busy people improve their sleep long term.Kali’s personal experience with both insomnia & burnout add a different dimension to her approach and make her a leading—though often contrarian—sleep expert. Kali believes that everyone has the ability to sleep naturally without any of the products, pills, potions, & gadgets marketed by the $65 billion sleep aid industry*.Learn more about Kali and her programs at KaliPatrick.com.LINKSFree 30-min Clarity Call (required entry to 1-1 coaching)Course: The Sleep AcademyBook: Mastering Your Sleep Puzzle: Your 12-Week Guide to Sleeping Better Freebie: Lifestyle Habits Wrecking Your Sleep (sample book chapter)Twitter: @KaliSleepCoachYouTube: https://youtube.com/@sleepcoachFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/KaliPatrickCoachingWebsite: https://kalisleepcoach.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/KaliSleepCoachLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kalipatrick/DOABLE CHANGESAt the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action. Action is where change happens.Even though we want big change, it’s really little things done over and over that make the difference. So pick a doable thing. Put it in your calendar. Weave it through your days for a week and then move on to the next one. It will have a snowball effect.Here are three Doable Changes from this conversation:SIMPLIFY YOUR BEDTIME ROUTINE. Pick one thing you do before bed to set yourself up for good sleep. You could do a meditation or rub oil on your feet. Maybe you have a calming tea. Don’t make it complicated. Pick one thing that is restful for your mind or body.IDENTIFY YOUR SLEEP VISION. “I want to sleep better” or “I want to get 8 hours of sleep” isn’t a vision. It isn’t going to motivate you to make change. Ask: What’s important about getting better sleep?” or “Why do I want better sleep?” What passion or action or driving force in your life can’t happen without sleep?CHANGE YOUR SLEEP MINDSET. How do you talk to yourself when you wake up in the middle of the night? Do you think you’re lame for being in pajamas at 9PM? Do you you say, “I’ll never get to sleep?” Start noticing how you talk to yourself around sleep. Just noticing can be your first doable change. Then see if you can shift the script.

Build Your Age-Appropriate Exercise Routine with Dr. Anthony Balduzzi

“Get rid of the all or nothing mindset that it needs to be some super intense thing.” –Dr. Anthony BalduzziDo you need different food and exercise in your 40s and after? Is it too late to start working out? I’m so excited about this conversation with Dr. Anthony Balduzzi, founder of The Fit Mother Project. We talk about long-term health as a motivator and how to actually make change happen as we age.Why does it feel like what was working doesn’t any more? And what can you do about it? Dr. Anthony says the margin of error goes down when you don’t have as much estrogen providing energy, bone strength, and vitality. That means we need to do strength training, really get control of our nutrition (we’ll talk about some shifts here), make sure you’re moving, take the right supplements, and optimize sleep.If you’re looking at that list and thinking, “I don’t have time,” we’re going to talk about pulses of exercise, how to mix cardio and strength training, and shifts in food that can make a big difference. Plus how these changes can give you more energy … that can help you do more of the good stuff for your body.We talk about: Having a standardized healthy breakfast and getting more protein in your dietThe need for movement AND workoutsExperimenting to find what feels good for your bodyStarting strength training — it’s not too late and it doesn’t have to take hoursMicro workouts, combining cardio and strength training and ways to trading intensity for timeThe importance of recovery timeABOUT DR. ANTHONYDr. Anthony Balduzzi is a health and weight loss expert and the founder of The Fit Mother Project and The Fit Father Project — the leading health & weight loss programs for busy moms and dads over 40. Dr. Balduzzi holds dual degrees in Nutrition & Neuroscience from the University Of Pennsylvania and  a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine. Dr. Balduzzi is most proud of the fact that he's helped over 30,000 families in over 100 countries lose weight and get healthy through his programs.LINKSThe Fit Mother Projecthttps://www.youtube.com/@FitMotherProjectMENTIONED LINKSEmpowered Food Choices with Tess Masters DOABLE CHANGESAt the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action.

Weave it through your days for a week and then move on to the next one. It will have a snowball effect.Here are three Doable Changes from this conversation:DIAL IN BREAKFAST. Having a standardized healthy breakfast is a great way to start the day. You want some healthy fat, some protein, lots of vitamins and minerals. Have a plan and keep it simple. You could have an egg with sauteed greens, other veggies or berries. You could do overnight oats with hemp seeds, chia seeds, and almond milk. You could do a smoothie with protein powder, almond milk, and veggies. You can eat the same thing everyday or swap out what veggies you have with your eggs or what fruit you put in your smoothie. Some of these things you can even prep ahead. Dial in breakfast and see what that does for your day.BUILD DAILY MOVEMENT. In addition to working out, we just need to move more. Walking is great. Where can you add a walk or even better, several short walks, into your day? Can you walk for 20 minutes in the morning? Walk around the block between calls? Take a family walk after dinner? Schedule time in your weekly plan. See if you can walk every day for a week.ADD A MIXED WORKOUT. You can do a metabolic resistance training workout, that combines cardio and strength training. Think high intensity, lower time. Yes, save time and get an effective workout! You can find examples from Dr. Anthony (see links). Do this one to three times a week. Track what you do. What is actually doable for you? If a 30 minute workout once a week is what’s doable, start there.

Making Change Doable: Health Edition

“I believe in doable and done over perfect and procrastinated.”– MiaAt the end of every episode, I share 3 doable changes. Why? Doable changes are the key to all the big changes we want in our lives. And no matter how busy you are, doable changes work.Often when we decide we want a change, we try to take on all the parts at once or try to take a giant leap from where we are that is too hard or unsustainable.Then with a list in hand, of unchecked items, because we just made it 5 minutes ago, we start to feel overwhelmed or behind. That feeling does not help us take action.For years, I craved change. I was constantly starting a million things, doing them half assed until I could no longer bear it, then hiding, then repeating. I felt like I was part of the movie Groundhog Day!The problem was I’d try to change everything all at once, from what I ate to how I worked to my exercise routine — oh, and I would start at 5:45 am with meditation. Honestly, meditation was on my calendar for years! It tortured me, until I actually made it “doable.”Now, instead of “trying” to make a million changes at once, each week there is one thing that I actually work on. By focusing on something each week, I have found that at the end of the year, I have a beautiful set of practices or habits that are genuinely mine.You can develop new habits or practices too. Getting into FLOW doesn’t have to be daunting. You can make meaningful change in your life by choosing doable changes and committing to them.We are going to focus on food and wellness this month. I thought I would share a few tangible examples of how some of these have played out in the food and wellness area.Have you signed up for Make Time for Your Health? (Event square)14 years ago, I needed a doable change to get healthy. I had gotten some advice to go raw vegan and basically detox. I really wanted to follow through but that really did not feel at all doable to a non-cook with 3 kids under 5. To make it doable, I ate basically the same things everyday for 3 months. That got me the food change I was looking for. Once I was eating a new way and had some health and energy changes, I was able to add in more variety, but I need to make it as simple as possible to make the change doable.3 years ago, giving up alcohol was a doable change one week. I decided to not drink in any circumstance for one week. Of course that week there were a few tempting scenarios — a work party at my spouse’s work where I felt awkward, a very long day that I traditionally would have ended with a glass of wine, and a relaxed Sunday where my husband cracked open a cider. The “change” was really about riding the wave of discomfort when temptation arose. The second week, I chose a doable change for work while staying focused on alcohol. I had not made a choice not to drink ever, but I wanted to see what I could do with the discomfort. Sometimes a smaller window makes a change feel possible, and you can choose it again and again. Three years later, I am still alcohol free.114 days ago, I made a commitment to do Qigong every day. I made it a doable change and it became effortless. It felt so great on my body and soul. I have done it almost daily since. A few weeks ago, I went on a family vacation and could not find the space to do it. The truth is, I could not find a quiet space inside with Internet connection. So this week, my doable change is to practice outside without a computer some days, so I have that as a tool too. I felt different on vacation. Everything feels better with my daily Qigong practice. I’m committed to it, now my practice needs to get looser and flexible.Sometimes a doable change is finite. When we had Jadah Sellner on the show, one of the doable changes we shared really resonated with me. It was to make a self care menu. It was a small step I could take towards aligned self care in my current season. This was a step that was doable in a full week—and then it was done. A similar doable change was Jill Avey’s suggestion ot make a don’t list, while ending some things on the list took time, making the list could happen in one week. Other finite doable changes are get out in nature during the week, make a stress list, have a moon ceremony, get better roasting pans. These have all been doable changes that I made happen by defining in an easily actionable way and  fitting them into my plan for the week.There are also doable changes that I always come back to. Hydration, meditation, regular social media posting and exercise are examples of these. I feel like I encounter obstacles or a season changes or I change, and I need to figure out how to make that thing doable again, even if it felt like a pretty settled habit. My brain tries to tell me that I should not need to focus on this thing again, but when I take the time to make it doable in my current season, the change feels like way less effort. I actually just got a glass half gallon container that has made tracking water so easy in this season where I can’t seem to remember what I did an hour ago!The great thing about doable changes is they work for whatever kind of change you want. Not sure where to start or what to do? Start with how you want to feel and what would help you feel that next week.We have a huge collection of doable changes in our collection. You can listen to just about any episode of the podcast and find three options of simple steps you can take to help you make change in your health and wellness, food, work, or other parts of your life.Get started today.Get 100+ Doable Changes with Planning Sheets!MENTIONED LINKSSlow Down and Reach Your Goals with Jadah SellnerBeing Enough with Jill Avey
