Ready to host your first event? Or lost and confused on how to make the right decisions?
It is time to get back to your WHY.
This is the first fundamental question you need to answer and remind yourself throughout the entire planning process.

Today, I get the honor to shoutout Kristina Bartold and the Social Rebel ladies, Cat & Shelby (connect with them below!). 
Kristina shared her vast knowledge of the social media world BUT also hit us with a powerful piece of advice, "Network for your network".
When getting in the rooms, attending the calls/events, how can you support and make connections within your network?
Then the Social Rebels themselves hit us with another incredible session all about the idea of "Documenting not Creating".
How can you start documenting your life in real time verses purposely allotting time to create content for your social media and business.
Listen in and learn how you can apply this to your life!

One week ago, we finished the Unscripted Mastermind Retreat, hosted by my mentor and friend, Jessica Burgio.
Over the next few weeks, I will be sharing takeaways and shouting out some of the speakers from this retreat.
This episode is thanks to Tracy O'Malley & Bree Johnson. Tracy dove into the Enneagram especially diving deep into each of ours touching each of our hearts more than we ever expected. The following day, Bree guided us in a beautiful breathwork session where the aha's from Tracy combined with Bree's guidance hit me.
I have not been making time for stillness and to not constantly be doing. 
Listen in to hear how this ties into my worth and might touch you as well.

Those whispers.... whether in your head or around you, telling you it is time to dive deeper in to healing. Not physically, but mentally and emotionally to start healing the inner wounds and pains from our past. 
I know, we got really deep there. But have you ever taken a moment to stop, think, and process how your past is affecting you now? Until you do, you won't know what is holding you back.
In this episode, Erin Panzarella opens up about her past that was holding her back and how she finally dove into energy work to begin healing her limiting beliefs. 
If you have ever wondered what options are out there for you and want a sneak peek into what it can look like, then take a listen here!

After reading the Subtle Art of Not Giving an F***, I realized only 1.5 years ago, my husband and I were in a pretty unhealthy relationship. Hiding things from one another, not able to be fully honest or trusting, etc. 
This book was the profound moment I realized how much we have changed even in one year. 
There are THREE aspects I attribute to our breakthrough going from an unhealthy relationship to healthy. Any guesses?
Listen in to hear just a few ways we have made the transformation and continue to work on it. And YOU CAN TOO!
