Or prevented yourself from feeling that way by constantly running from one thing to the next? You're not alone.

We explore how rest is a vital component of productivity, as well as a spiritual, mental, and physical necessity. What You'll Discover in This Episode Why rest is an essential, not optional, part of life. How to break free from the guilt associated with taking time to relax.

As we build our business we are going to face periods of stress. Whether from challenges, new levels of success, or simply the added demands of the holiday season. I have been going through a period of expansion over the last few months. Even though it's been good, it's still different and it's normal for the body to approach "different" with stress. After a few restless nights, I woke up and realized that I was not looking forward to the work I normally enjoy. Luckily, I had this visualization meditation to help me process and release that stress so I could start my day powerfully. I recommend saving and coming back to this episode any time you find yourself ruminating, unable to stop thinking about work, starting to feel burnt out, or as part of your morning routine. I use this visualization regularly myself and with clients to help process periods of stagnation, feeling stuck, or when stress starts to spill over into a new day.

Links From this Episode Tim Ferriss' TED Talk on Fear Setting Come Say Hi on Instagram In this Episode It has come to my attention that you may be walking around doubting your greatness and acting like you AREN'T a powerful bada** co-creator. This episode is my loving reminder that you are an overcomer. You are powerful AF and have more than earned the success you desire. It's okay if you get discouraged, if you start to wonder whether things will work out the way you hope, or if you sometimes feel like quitting on your dreams - AND I am here to remind you of what you're capable of. Why it matters that you do the inner work to believe in yourself. Why it matters that you remember who the f*** you are.

Imposter syndrome is a conversation we have about ourself, with ourself. But it doesn't FEEL that way - it feels like self doubt, not deserving our success, perfectionism, analysis-paralysis, people-pleasing, and procrastination. It can ruin the beautiful experience of living our dream life, by undermining our wins or preventing us from acting with authenticity and courage. In this podcast episode I talk about my experiences with imposter syndrome, and how I've learned to overcome it. This is the exact process I use to face my fears, write new empowering stories, and enjoy new levels of success in my business. Let me know what you think of this episode by leaving a review!

"Trying to control our destiny is a battle we can fight out entire lives. The battle we can win is learning how to respond to what happens with power and peace of mind" This episode goes deep into the process I have learned for shifting from an energy of fear, panic, and anxiety to one of positivity and personal power. This shift isn't about feeling better or ignoring challenges, it's a skill that we can use to take on ANYTHING we desire or come up against. As usual, I do not hold back. I'll share the most valuable tool I have learned for overcoming fear/anxiety, and share my hard-won perspective on life's "in between" moments. This is my favorite ACEO episode to date and one that I highly recommend if you are dealing with big challenges or are moving beyond your comfort zone.

In this episode I riff on the number one thing that contributes to entrepreneurial success - resilience. That is, stepping back into our personal power when something throws us off our game (and doing this more and more quickly over time). I'll touch on: How to handle negative feedback in your business Deepening your healing Creating new mental habits that move your business forward Using your time and energy effectively As entrepreneurs, we are going to face challenges. Our ability to handle those challenges, heal the things that would host us back, and quickly step back into our power is going to determine how quickly we reach success.
