EP 087: SOLO JAM SESSION: OUR EXTERNAL WORLD DOESN'T CREATE INTERNAL SAFETY
I am recording this live from Bali and I really wanted to do this episode from here with a little bit less of the editing and a little bit more rawness. I feel raw. I feel really raw. I feel like I'm going through another unearthing in my life. Another unearthing of what does not belong which, always feels very scary you know? It's this whole idea of like, "I want to keep things as they are and I want a white-knuckle, and I want structure, and I want this, and I want that," so that I can feel safe. I wanted to bring this message to this podcast today. This whole facade that our external world creates our internal safety. In this episode, I share: Deciding and choosing the emotions we want to feel. What does safety feel like in your body? Getting above the emotions that keep us stuck. Inviting safety into our bodies on a daily basis. Check out our Hungry for Happiness community for more details, programs, and tips on how to thrive as a wellness coach.

EP 086: BEAUTY IS SOUL DEEP WITH MEREDITH ROM
Today on the show I have the amazing Meredith Rom. I loved connecting with her! You can just tell by her voice how grounded, soulful, and heart centered she is. I absolutely loved the way that she talked about beauty and uniqueness as it pertains to the self. I think that's often times something that we just miss the ball on so much as we don't acknowledge the beauty and the uniqueness of our individuality, our humanness, our souls, and our hearts. I often get my clients to look at nature and I say, "Look how beautiful that is!" and what we get to realize is beauty that exists externally also exists within ourselves. The only thing we have to ask ourselves is, "Are we willing to look at it? Are we willing to realize it?" Something else we talked about is what to do when your partner is not into personal development and growth but you are. We also talk about the art of asking for help, the art of receiving, really stepping into our Womanhood, really stepping into our femininity, and asking for what we need to help us navigate this human experience. About Meredith Rom Meredith Rom is a yoga teacher, author, coach and host of the Rising Women Leaders podcast. She helps women uncover and heal whatever is preventing them from claiming and embodying their unique brilliance to be a beacon of light for others to awaken in this world. After graduating from NYU she followed her intuition to Northern California where she now teaches yoga and mentors women to rise in courage, self-love and feminine leadership. In this episode, Meredith shares: Acknowledging our own beauty and uniqueness. How comparison robs us of our true magic. Taking ownership when we're acting out of alignment and forgiving ourselves. Asking for help and being open to receive it. What to do when you're committed to personal growth and your partner is not.

EP 085: SOLO JAM SESSION: CREATING BOUNDARIES AND USING DISCERNMENT
In this episode I'm jamming on questions I am asked all of the time. They're questions like, "How can I be more discerning with my boundaries?, How can I create boundaries?, How can I say no?, How can I listen to the part of me that's trying to speak to me?, How can I ask for what I need? How can I receive more abundance?" And I think this is important because as women, it's difficult. We grow up and take on the role of a marauder. We handle everything and as a result, we become resentful. In this episode, I share: How to make decisions based off of our bodies' intuitive reactions. Observing and questioning our thoughts before we make decisions. An easy way to create and set boundaries from an unapologetic place. Identifying the various ways you're not treating yourself well. Where are you not showing up for yourself? What do you need? Check out our Hungry for Happiness community for more details, programs, and tips on how to thrive as a wellness coach!

EP 084: HOW TO RECREATE YOUR LIFE WITH TARA MACKEY
I brought Tara on the show because I admire her so much for her ability to not wait for permission, not wait to jump through the red tape, and just simply own her power and the things that light her up without any connections, without any record deal. Part of what she does is she's a musician, she's a beautiful artist. Rather than waiting for a record deal to start creating music and filling her soul's desire, she just went for it and I admire her so much. In this episode we talk about the ability to unlearn the things you thought you were so you can recreate yourself. And this is something I talk about often on the Hungry for Happiness podcast. The way she described it is so beautiful, given her background, her childhood. She's one of those people where you're like. "Wow, you have truly created a remarkable life." And I wanted to bring her on the show to really inspire you to give yourself permission to say, "Hey! I can recreate the narrative and be who I want to be NOW. " About Tara Mackey Tara Mackey is the founder and CEO of The Organic Life, a successful holistic and sustainable living platform, and is a widely recognized activist with a tribe of over 1 million followers on her blog and social media.

In this episode, Tara shares: The daily practice of unlearning and recreating yourself. Accepting your differences and building your business from the inside out. Overcoming the feeling of not belonging and owning your truth. The power in connecting and collaborating with other women. How to make friends with other women.

EP 081: SOLO JAM SESSION: HOW TO MAKE YOUR LIFE A MASTERPIECE
In this solo jam I'm talking about how to make your life a masterpiece. I heard this quote the other day and I was like, "That's so good!" It was by Michelangelo and he said I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. I was like, "Man. that's what we're doing with ourselves everyday." We are carving at the pieces that don't belong to sculpt ourselves into the truest most authentic versions of who we are. Underneath everything, we are these Divine being of light and love. We are these incredible masterpieces that are just so perfect and so amazing. It's so out of this world incredible. In this episode, I share: Peeling back the illusion of our lives and recognizing our brilliance. Why we struggle with beliefs, patterns, and stories. Changing the meaning of our emotions.

EP 079: SOLO JAM SESSION: WHEN "GOOD VIBES" BECOME "GOOD LIES"
Today on the podcast I am doing a solo jam and I'm talking about this whole concept that we see in the personal development industry and in the self-help world. "Good Vibes Only" perpetuates this idea that we should only be positive all the time which is truly stopping us from growing. And guess what? The growth is in the shadow, the growth is in the darkness, the growth is in the entire spectrum of emotionality, not just a fragment of it. So in this episode I walk you through how to truly extract what is so valuable and makes us human. If you enjoy this episode, I would so appreciate if you hop on over I over and give it a review! Let me know if you like it and also I would love to hear what you want me to do so episodes on. That would be so helpful for me. I love you and I hope you enjoy this episode. In this episode, I share: Releasing the 'everything is awesome' mask. The importance of acknowledging our darkness and accepting it. Going with the flow of life and being unattached to the outcome. Living in the moment and understanding our plans may shift. Why the "good vibes only" slogan is bs.

He is part of Mind Valley which is an incredible organization, which you're going to learn all about.

When I say that, I don't mean you have to have a huge business for this conversation to be highly valuable because the things that we extract are still applicable even if you're at the earlier stages of the journey or earlier stages of entrepreneurship. This is a conversation that I would have loved to have listened to at the very rid of the gate, as I was becoming an entrepreneur and starting my first wellness coaching business. He is such a genius when it comes to business. I'm just so highly I just respect him so much for how he runs his business, how he operates himself, how he takes such high levels of emotional responsibility in his personal life, which of course then transitions into his business.
