Rosemary’s popular coaching business, Motivating Other Moms, helps moms in all of life’s ages and stages to hone the skills they have to grow their business ideas and start-ups into what they always dreamed they would be.

Main Points: Why are we having this conversation in our PJ’s. The beautiful birth that turned into a trauma story. Her Postpartum Depression reality check and the breaking point that led her to her to seek help. Why trying to “fit in” to mommy groups was not working. How she was forced to a network meeting that made her entrepreneur light bulb go off. Why having a supportive community can make a world of a difference. Self-worth, how Rosemary defines it and what exactly does it mean. New hot things going on with Motivating Other Moms. The lessons Rosemary teaches her children as they grow up. Key lessons learned from Rosemary’s purpose driven journey. Rosemary's Golden Phrases: It’s kind of like being a celebrity when all of the sudden you look like you just showed up and you are famous. And that’s not the truth. Behind every person there is a story. With everything that was going on, I ended up with postpartum depression because I was not taking care of myself. I would not ask for help. I asked for help in a roundabout way but not direct. When people don’t realize they are in depression it is hard for them to get help. The same reason why I didn’t fit into high school groups or anything else, I am just different; which most entrepreneurs are. We think differently about life, and what it is, and who we are, and it’s hard to be around other people that aren’t like us. Every single person has to go through something. There’s something that sparks that idea and that passion. That’s the way I look at life now. When something bad happens I’m like, okay, I wonder what are the great results are going to be. I don’t wallow in the misery of it. That idea of knowing that there is a beauty to every ending if you look at it the right way. The Journey is loving yourself, and really your self-worth is the value that you add to the world. Everybody has something, your something is different than the person sitting next to you.

03: Joleene Moody- How to Have Abundance by Exploring Your Life in a New Way

Our guest today understands all too well what it’s like to change careers, take big risks, and drive blindly into the unknown. She spent 10 years as a television reporter and anchor before she realized it wasn’t where she was meant to be. When it got to the point where she couldn’t live another day merely existing, she boldly stepped out of her comfort zone and financial safety net to follow the dreams and passions within her. Today she is a published author, passion shift coach and speaker, guiding writers, artists and entertainers to a place within where they can uncover and discover who and what they are truly meant to be and do, while profiting handsomely from their deepest desires. Main Points: Joleene’s background story that led to her “Passion Shift”. The eye opener that revealed Joleene’s love of sitcom writing. How people are able to overcome their fears and the critical society that we live in so that they can achieve the fulfillment that they truly desire. The BIG risk that Joleene took that changed her life. Why most people do not take risks. What can people do to obtain the funds to invest in themselves. What keeps Joleene motivated to keep going. The kind of person that it takes to create their own life. How to stop pretending to be happy for something if you are not truly happy about. What it takes to discover your passion? Why there is no such thing called “wasted time”. The affect that trust and your mindset has on the purpose driven journey. Ways to develop speaking skills aside from Toast Masters. Joleene’s Golden Phrases: It takes a special kind of person to create their own life. Naturally, we have a sense of security in a conformed culture. I was feeling unfulfilled. And the reason I was feeling unfulfilled was because my soul had not yet merged with my purpose. Our growth isn’t about destination it’s about the flourishing within so that we can serve the world for the greater good. Anybody that wants to make a significant amount of money and not work a lot and follow their passion, there’s no B.S. when I tell you it’s possible; but you have to be willing to do something different. Sadly, our current culture leads us to believe that we have to figure it out and we have to figure it out quickly and it has to be really big and really bold so that I can be admired by the world. There have been days that I have been completely unmotivated. The motivation to “keep going”, I don’t think it’s about that, I think it’s about the willingness to show up in life like you never have before.
