Taking Flight - Change Your Mind. Change Your Life
play

01/30/23 • 50 min

Episode 19 - I was hit with some inspiration from a line that said, "You cannot solve a problem with the same mind that created it and you cannot attract a difference experience without changing your energy first." And from that this episode was born. It was a mic drop reading moment for me and I felt instantly on fire to talk about our mind, energy, motivation connection. I have seen first hand how my life has shifted when I started understanding where and how I was getting stuck and what led to it. Furthermore, I dive into what catapulted me to get unstuck and shift my mind and my life. If you are feeling any sense of uncertainty, troubled motivation, that 'stuck' feeling, or simply just want to be lifted up in how to help think more creatively in how you show up in life. This episode is for you. Leave your anxieties at the door, and come break the chains of staying small and scared.

Taking Flight - Leaning in Until You Love It
play

01/15/23 • 47 min

Episode 18 - So, we all know the term 'fake it until you make it...' It really doesn't settle with me well. It's setting yourself up for failure before you even launch. Your mind tells you you are fraudulent, no good, etc...and I don't know about you, but that's no way I want to start a journey to change, growth, or adaptation in any part of my life. In this episode, I talk about real, raw change and how LEANING INTO your goals, aspirations, and shifts is much more sustainable. In addition, I go through action steps to accomplishing steps in the right direction for actually getting things done. Looking to make a shift in your life, business, or relationships OR become more grounded in the things that you do in life? This episode is for you!

Taking Flight - Grounding into Intention
play

01/06/23 • 56 min

Episode # 17 - OUT with the 'new year, new me' stuff - IN with finding ourselves and what works for us in any part of life. But let's still take a little time on this new calendar year to think more intentionally into how we navigate the world around us, shall we? From 'shopping my home' and refreshing to intentional 'feet to the ground moments. I talk about ways I set myself up for more clarity, always...not just because January 1st rolled around.

In addition, come get inspired by a chat about making strides with '1 minute miracles,' jars of gratitude, and celebrating simple...things that I find to be such game changers for setting myself up for success. Lastly, how I believe writing can be so beautifully powerful as I share and read some old letters in my journal to unearth some transformation (vulnerable alert)! It's unreal what written words can convey and move you through. Ending with a few more tangible ways to create some momentum for yourself, your boundaries, your schedule, and feel powerful going through life's up's and downs.

Taking Flight - Building a Resilient Life

02/26/23 • 58 min

Episode 21 - First guest episode of 2023 and it does not disappoint! Felicity Nicole is such a powerful soul and healer and our conversation really melted into many areas. From listening to our gut instincts as women, to creating space to healing our past wounds and trauma. No matter the stage in your life, you can create a safe space for growth and we tapped into this on many levels. From grounding exercises and inner emotions check points to moving through staying stuck. This episode will leave you empowered to move through victim mentality, anxiety, and truly owning your life at any stage, but especially for those midlife women who want more!

About Felicity - Felicity Nicole is an author, speaker, coach, and the creator and owner of She Is You, a brand for midlife women seeking transformation and healing through a community of togetherness. Felicity refers to this community as a sisterhood and her members as midlife warriors. She is a published author and her second book, Pieces of Me, is a memoir about her life growing up in a dysfunctional abusive family only to find herself married to an abusive husband as an adult. Her strength, courage, and resiliency pulls her out of a dead-end marriage which leads her to rebuilding her life from the ground up. Now, she's an author, speaker, mentor, and coach for other midlife women who have found themselves in similar situations. Her passion project, Sisterhood of Midlife Warriors, is a membership for women seeking healing in a group and making long-lasting friendships along the way. In her free time, she hunkers down with her family, plays the cello, gardens, and reads.
