The Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 80: 7 Daily Practices to Clear Your Mental ClutterThis past month I’ve been talking to you about why you need to clear your mental clutter to achieve more mental clarity and see more success in your life. Wouldn’t it be great, though, if you didn’t have any of that mental clutter in the first place? Imagine… No running thoughts keeping you up at night. Better focus. Less forgetfulness. A calmer, less anxious mind… While it may not be 100% possible to eliminate all of your mental clutter, there are simple, daily practices you can do that will certainly lessen it. Listen to today’s...2023-02-2215 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 79: Your Diet Could Be Sabotaging Your FocusThere are so many external factors trying to get your attention these days that it’s no wonder focus can be hard to find. So why is it when you finally get some quiet time to focus on the things you really want to, your mind keeps wandering?  It could be that you’ve been conditioned to jump from one thing to the next, but it could also be that your body is working against you! Brain fog and inability to focus can be directly linked to the things you eat (or don’t eat), and in this ep...2023-02-1508 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 78: The Positive Side of PositivityWhen you think of positive thinking, what comes to mind? Optimism, maybe? Or sayings like “the glass is half full” or “look at the bright side”? These are definitely side effects of positive thinking, but they don’t fully encompass what positive thinking is nor why you should work at it.  In today’s episode, I’m sharing the very real benefits of positivity and how they will affect your successes in life, your relationships, and even your brain! Once I’ve convinced you that everyone should work on being more positive, I’ve got three easy ways you can increa...2023-02-0812 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #77: Let Go Of The Past For a Clearer FutureIf you want to move forward toward the Extraordinary Life you’re craving, but find yourself feeling stuck or blocked in some way, it may be time to examine your past.  Whether consciously or subconsciously, the past can hold a powerful grip on your self-esteem and motivation. It can even cause you to self-sabotage the things that you really want in life.  If you think your past might be holding you back, today’s episode will show you exactly why you need to shake it, thoughts to examine, and all the benefits from saying “goodbye” to what no...2023-02-0113 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #76: Clean Up Your Mental ClutterAre you feeling…  Overwhelmed? Distracted? Unfocused? Lost? A lot of these symptoms point to an overflowing mind that needs to be decluttered. Just like it's impossible to find a safety pin in the junk drawer, you can’t expect your mind to perform when it’s overflowing.  If you don’t know what the next steps you need to take towards your dreams are  (or worse, don’t even know what your dreams are), it might be time to clean up your mental clutter.  In this episode, I’m sharing five types of mental clutter a...2023-01-2517 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #75: Take The LeapIf you’re waiting for a sign that you need to stop planning, waiting, and dreaming of your Extraordinary Life, this is it. It’s time to take the leap of faith and make your goals and dreams come true.  In this episode, I’m giving you the simple ingredients you need to be successful once you get out of your comfort zone and on to the path toward your dreams. There will be bumps along the way, but if you keep these skills in your back pocket, you’ll be just fine.  Whether it’s a new year...2023-01-1807 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #74: Make Your Comfort Zone BiggerLately, I’ve been talking about getting out of your comfort zone because that’s the place you need to be to achieve your dreams and goals. Today I’ve got a new concept to get you motivated about putting yourself out there and taking action towards the things you want. It’s all about making your comfort zone bigger.  We all love our comfort zones - so what if you had a bigger one to come back to when needed? There’s a catch, though. Yes, you guessed it - to make your comfort zone bigger, you need to...2023-01-1112 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #73: Motivate Yourself Out of a SlumpThe dreaded slump. Everything is going great, you’re gaining traction on your goals, when BAM. You get sick, or work gets busy, or you take a vacation, and your whole routine is shot. By the end of it, you can’t muster up any motivation to get going again.  You have the blahs.  The longer you’re in a slump, the harder it can be to get out. And the key to escaping it is finding the motivation specific to you that will work the best to get you moving again. So before you fall too...2022-12-2116 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 72: Learn to be More Self-DisciplinedLike all of the strategies I share to help you get out of your comfort zone and create your Extraordinary Life, this one can be learned. Self-discipline is a skill that anyone can develop, and it’s essential to stay on track to getting exactly what you want.  One obvious sign that you need to work on your self-discipline is that you’re coasting through life. Every day is much like the last, and you’re not getting any closer to your big dreams. If this sounds familiar, this episode will give you strategies to stop coasting and sta...2022-12-1411 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #71: Be Positively LimitlessIf you didn’t know already, you are the only one in charge of achieving your dreams; you’re also the only one who can hold you back. And most of the time, the biggest thing getting in your way is your mindset.  Developing a positive mindset is essential to not only seeing your true potential, but believing you can achieve it and taking action to make it happen. Positivity is something that anyone can learn, and it will open you up to unlimited possibilities in your life.  In this episode, I’m sharing my best too...2022-12-0711 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #70: It's Time to Face Your FearsOne of the hardest things about personal growth and going after your goals is stepping outside your comfort zone. The reason it’s so hard is because as soon as your brain senses change is coming, it throws fears in the way to slow you down. It wants you to stay safe and comfortable, and change could mess all that up. Fortunately, you’re in charge of your thoughts, and there are things you can do to face your fears and flip the script. Listen in for three not-so-scary ways you can tackle your fears, take control, and...2022-11-3009 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #69: Invite Gratitude Into Your LifeAs it’s nearly Thanksgiving, it seems like the perfect opportunity to revisit the life-changing power of a daily gratitude practice. This one habit wields a lot of power for something that only takes five minutes a day.  When you invite gratitude into your life, your relationships will be better, you’ll be less stressed, joy is easier to come by, and you’ll even be healthier. It sounds too good to be true, but it isn’t - and in this episode I share why gratitude is so powerful and how to get started with your own daily...2022-11-2312 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 68: Step Out Of Your Comfort Zone With CourageOver the next several episodes, I’m going to be talking about your comfort zone: what it is, how it’s holding you back, and how to break out of it. First up, let’s talk about courage.  When I think about what it means to be courageous in your life, it’s the smaller actions that stand out to me. Things like setting firm boundaries, exploring your dreams, and challenging your limiting beliefs. Not one of these things is easy, and that’s because they all take you out of your comfort zone.  Something else they al...2022-11-1613 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 67: Why You’re Struggling With Your Goals (And What To Do About It)Have you ever felt like you’re banging your head against a wall when it comes to your goals? You set a goal… you really want to achieve it… yet it seems like you can’t get any traction towards actually achieving it.  Sound familiar? I’ve been hearing from a lot of people that have been feeling this way lately, so you definitely aren’t alone. So what gives?  Why is it so hard to make the things we really want a reality?  If you're feeling super-stuck on your goals, it likely comes down to o...2022-11-0911 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 66: You Get What You Expect, So Start Expecting The BestHave you ever noticed that what you expect to happen usually does? There are tons of sayings, ideologies, and even schools of thought related to this idea. There is the law of attraction, karma, and even the song “You Get What You Give” by The New Radicals.  Without having to believe in any of those things, the truth is that the things you give attention to grow faster. This includes your hopes and dreams.  In this episode, I’m challenging you to stop hoping and dreaming, and instead become intentional about the things you want. I want y...2022-11-0214 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 65: Manage Your Mind Through AdversityContinuing with the theme of our thoughts, I want to talk about managing your mind when things aren’t going your way. Because let’s face it, if 2020 taught us anything, it’s that we aren’t in control of what happens to us; but we can control how we react to it.  So, what happens when a pandemic shows up, you get an unexpected job offer, your parents get sick, or your child comes home with a puppy that they need to keep? How do you stay on track with your dreams and goals if life keeps thr...2022-10-2617 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 64: Create a Life Roadmap With These 5 QuestionsAfter living the past two years on “pause”, I know a lot of people who are wondering “what now?”. Their dreams may have changed or they just don’t know how to get started working toward them again, and they feel lost. This is where a life-map that showed you exactly where to go would come in handy.  In this episode, I’m going to show you how you can create that map, so you have something to guide you when making decisions. It will be like a compass to help you know what to let into your life, wh...2022-10-1913 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 63: 3 Practices to Make Your Brain a More Positive PlaceWhat if your brain could be a place naturally open to positivity, where your dreams and goals naturally flourished? What if it was a place ready to accept your hopes and also take action to make them come true?  I bet it would be pretty amazing.  It is also 100% possible to create this internal environment in just five to thirty minutes a day. No, it isn’t magic, and it’s not that hard. In fact, I bet after just a week of trying one of the tips in this podcast you’ll feel a dramatic...2022-10-1210 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 62: Train Your Negative Inner Voice to be More PositiveDid you know that we have about 60,000 thoughts a day and about 80% of them are negative? That number shocked me, especially because the words you tell yourself affect your self esteem, motivation, and the results you create for yourself.  While that may sound like terrible news for your motivation, the good news is that you have complete control of your inner voice and what it says. That’s right, you can control the “mindless” chatter talking to you all day long, so you can start hearing empowering, positive thoughts instead.  Changing your thoughts isn’t hard, eith...2022-10-0510 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 61: Tips to Boost Your CreativityI never believed I was a creative person until my husband changed my point of view. Maybe I can’t make music like him or sing like my daughter, but I am creative in other ways. As my husband pointed out, I can whip up a delicious meal from anything I have on hand. If making dinner for four out of a bunch of wilted vegetables, macaroni noodles, and parmesan isn’t creative problem solving, I don’t know what is!  It turns out that I was thinking about creativity as only making things, which is pretty common...2022-09-2110 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 60: Breaking the Rules - An Extraordinary Interview with Jenny RothI love following the rules and sticking to habits, but in this episode I’m chatting with someone who’s built her business (and lives her life) by choosing what feels right - no matter what the rules say.  Jenny Roth is the personal trainer behind Coaching Character, an unconventional business built  by breaking the rules and on the radical belief that you’re the expert of your own body.  If you have ever felt dismissed by the “experts” or overwhelmed by your goals, you’ll love Jenny’s point of view and approach to both fitness and...2022-09-1437 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #59: Use Your Past to Inspire Your FutureI don’t have space for regret in my life, but the past can still trigger big feelings. This happened to me recently when a new opportunity shed light on how close I’d come to a big dream of mine from college.  Looking back, I wish that I’d done things differently… but of course that’s with all the wisdom I’ve gained over the past thirty years!  Rather than stay stuck in regret over the many “what ifs'' surrounding that dream, I ended up finding closure on that time in my life. I’ve also found...2022-09-0713 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #58: When Comparisonitis StrikesImposter syndrome is a common topic these days, but most of the time the conversations center around comparing yourself to others. But what about the other form of “comparisonitis”? The one where you compare yourself to yourself.  This bad habit puts your current self in comparison with different versions of you, like your past self or ideas of the person you think you should be.  A few weeks ago, I went on a bike ride that I used to do regularly for fun in my twenties… And let me tell you, all sorts of self-comparison popped u...2022-08-3111 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 57: Find Your Morning RoutineI don’t know about you, but summer holidays do a number on my routines, especially my cherished morning routine. The rest of the year, I count on my morning habits to start the day off on the right foot and make the rest of the day run smoothly.  After a few weeks on a family road trip and other impromptu plans, though, my mornings have become a mess.  I’m randomly waking up at 4am, I’m having hot flashes and headaches again, and I even let go of my favorite morning gratitude habit. Let’s ju...2022-08-2409 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 56: Using Adaptogens to Reduce Stress with Paula GraingerThis month is all about finding and harnessing your motivation, which means we also need to talk about stress. When you’re stressed it’s hard to find the energy to keep going, even if you really want to.  Stress is 100% natural, designed to help us manage during fight or flight situations - like helping our predecessors escape from lions and tigers and bears (oh my!). I don’t know about you, but I can’t remember the last time I had to run away from a carnivorous beast.  Instead, we are dealing with chronic stress eve...2022-08-1721 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #55: Understanding MotivationI talk a lot about being motivated to achieve the dreams of your Extraordinary Life, but have you ever stopped to think about what motivation really is?  While it may feel like motivation comes and goes, it actually lives within us all the time - and affects more parts of your day than you think.  If you want to harness your internal drive to go after what you really want, you need to understand what motivation is and how it works. That’s exactly what I’m sharing in this week’s podcast, the first in a seri...2022-08-1014 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #54: Lessons From The RoadI’m three weeks into my family road trip vacation, and as I should know by now, life never goes according to plan. Since I’m always looking for the lessons life throws at me, this episode is dedicated to the things I’ve learned the past few weeks.  What can you learn from forest fires, dental emergencies, high altitudes, and mountain biking? It turns out a lot; listen in and find out how these things have affected my mindset and plans for the future. My lessons may even inspire you to look at things a bit differe...2022-08-0314 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 53: You Need to Relax. Here's How.Every year, I look forward to summer. Long, lazy days spent outdoors and enjoying time with friends and family (finally!). Yet when the season arrives, inevitably I am just as busy as usual, if not more so! Trying to fit in all that “summer fun” while maintaining work and household responsibilities.  If this sounds all too familiar to you, then you need to make time to relax. In fact, we all need to relax every day to stay healthy, happy, and productive. Yes, you read that right - you need to take time to chill out so you c...2022-07-1310 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #52: Being Bold with Tracie RootI’m back with another interview with an Extraordinary woman, who has defined what being bold is for herself and helps others find it in themselves and their businesses. Tracie Root is also a speaker, coach, bestselling author, and community builder.  Tracie shares how she went from working in the corporate world to living a meaningful, aligned life; and it all started with health coaching. Or did it? This interview will have you looking back over your life for those pivotal moments that you never saw coming (or weren’t ready for,) yet changed everything. It may even...2022-07-0644 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #51: How Are You, Really? A Book ReviewI was lucky enough to read an advance copy of  Jenna Kutcher’s first book, How Are You, Really? (which you can get now) and I highly recommend it.  If you don’t know who Jenna Kutcher is, she’s the host of the Goal Digger Podcast, and leads by example for women who want to live a fulfilled life. This book is all about how to do just that. I loved the whole book, but this episode is a quick yet thoughtful one about a topic she spends a lot of time on: the importance of building...2022-06-2912 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #50: Challenge Your Thinking to Create ChangeI’m always working on my thoughts and beliefs and how they are supporting or affecting what I want in my life. As a life coach, however, it’s a lot easier to do for others than myself. Since our thoughts and beliefs are often subconscious, it’s helpful to have an outside perspective to get those “aha!” moments.  I’ve worked with several coaches and mentors when I’ve been feeling really stuck, but right now I’m practicing on my own using something called “The Model”. It was created by Brooke Castillo, and it helps you understand how “y...2022-06-2222 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #49: Strategies to Overcome Your FearsIf someone were to ask you what you’re afraid of, what would you say? Heights? (I sure am!) Maybe you’d answer with spiders or dogs. Or would you go deeper, and blurt out “failure” or “hurting people’s feelings”? There is no right answer of course, but all types of fear hold us back in some way.  Recently, my fear of heights clashed with my love of mountain biking, and I had to cross a railway bridge over a river. I was terrified, and that fear somewhat tainted the ride up until I managed (somehow) to get across...2022-06-1515 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #48: Defining a Prosperous LifeWe are jumping right into this episode, which is a continuation of Episode 47: A Gentler Way to Go After Your Dreams. In the second half of my conversation with Nafissa, a coach, mentor, and healer, we switch gears to chat more about what it means to live a prosperous life. Prosperity is often linked to wealth, and while Nafissa admits she likes nice things, she is at a point in her life where prosperity has a deeper meaning.  She has moved beyond seeking upward mobility and levelling up, and is now more focused on strengthening her internal ro...2022-06-0832 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #47: A Gentler Way to Go After Your DreamsMost of us have secret dreams about what we want from our lives. You know, the big ones you’re afraid of saying out loud? Have you ever wondered why you keep them inside? Is it an embarrassment of wanting it? Fear that you can’t achieve it? Or because if you speak it out loud, you are going to have to work your butt off hustling and working 24/7 to achieve it?  In this episode, I’m interviewing Nafissa Shireen, a coach who has asked all of those questions of herself and more on the way to owning...2022-06-0137 minLas Noticias TVPLas Noticias TVPLas Noticias TVP Cd.Obregón 26-05-2022- Podría Cajeme quedarse sin agua hasta para el consumo humano, advirtió el DRRY tras la posibilidad del encendido de una bomba más en el acueducto Independencia. - Por reparaciones, se suspenderá el suministro de agua al sur oriente de la ciudad este 2 de junio, alerta el OOMAPASC. - Marinos y policías aseguran narco laboratorio de “crystal” en Guaymas Acompáñanos en la segunda edición de Las Noticias con Susana Arana y Joel Gutiérrez, Diana Sambrano con el pronóstico del tiempo y Poncho Inzunza con los deportes.2022-05-271h 02The Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #46: Practices to Develop Your Personal PsychologyWe all know what it takes, more or less, to be successful. A lot hinges on following through with what you say you’re going to and maintaining  the healthy habits to support you in reaching your goals and dreams. The next layer to creating a joyful and peaceful life is developing your personal psychology: stretching your mind!  No, I’m not talking about learning, thinking, or doing more with your mind. Rather, developing your mind is about clearing space in your mind and learning to control your thoughts and the chatter within it. With practice, you’ll find...2022-05-2512 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #45: What it Takes to Follow ThroughHave you ever noticed how easy it is to keep appointments and promises to others, but that we often struggle to stay true to our word when it comes to ourselves? When you keep breaking promises to yourself, your subconscious becomes distrustful of what you say you’re going to do and further sabotages your efforts to follow through.  It may sound strange that you may not trust that you’re going to do what you say you are, but it’s true. That’s why I’m sharing four ways you can rebuild that trust by consistentl...2022-05-1816 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode#44: The Stages of ChangeIf you follow me on Instagram, you’ll see that I’m taking part in a challenge called “75 Hard”. It’s seventy-five days of being consistent with taking care of your body and mind, and while I’m quite sure there will be physical benefits, it’s really about becoming mentally stronger.  Doing anything new consistently is difficult, especially when our minds are wired to prefer the status quo. Even before I started the challenge, I caught myself making excuses. “Oh, next week is a better time to start”, or “I should prepare a bit more first.” I’m glad that I decided...2022-05-1116 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #43: Fitting In - An Interview About Moving Through LifeSome words can carry hidden meaning and power, and “fitting in” is one of them. We all have a deep need to be seen, heard, and find where we FIT. As we move through the ages and stages of life, this need keeps popping up.  Taking it even further, I think we all want to feel comfortable within ourselves, too. A number of women I work with feel unsettled in who they are and where they belong in the world, especially as those ages and stages end. Starting or ending a new career, kids leaving the nest, or th...2022-05-0452 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #42: Find Relief from Acute StressWhen you’re faced with a high-stress situation in life, it can be all-consuming.

It’s hard work to get through times like these (and you will), but sometimes you need a break from the constant, acute stress.  To find the strength and energy to overcome intense emotional stress, breaks from the bigness of the situation are essential, and that’s what this episode is all about.

Looking back on the life you’ve lived so far, I bet there are many challenges and unexpected obstacles that have got in your way. And yet here you are, the wonderful person you are, in part because you overcame those things. Yet for some reason, when we are looking forward to a big goal or dream, we don’t expect the unexpected. And when it inevitably happens, it can be devastating in the moment.  In today’s podcast, I’m interviewing an extraordinary woman who dreamed...2022-03-0928 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #34: What If You Don't Have a Dream?I work with a lot of inspiring women who have big dreams and ideas for their lives.

They felt guilty wanting more from life when they were already struggling with homeschooling, working from  home, and the constant changes to public health rules.

It’s almost like they were born with confidence and know exactly what they want and how to get it. I do think some people are born with a little extra oomph, but everyone deserves to feel confident in who they are and where they’re going in life.  When you lack inner confidence, none of the strategies, ways of thinking, habits, and practical tips to improve your life and feel better about yourself will change much at all. It really has to start with YOU, the dee...2022-01-2612 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #28: Work on Your Dreams without Feeling Overwhelmed I talk a lot about why you should set big goals for yourself and how to achieve them faster, but along with those big dreams comes the reality of how to fit them into your already busy life. There are kids to raise, dogs to walk, groceries to shop for, and jobs to go to.  I get it! It can feel like it’s a lot to take on.  That’s why in this episode I’m telling not only that you shouldn’t take on everything, but how to take on what matters. Like your dreams...2022-01-1920 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 27: 7 Surprising Reasons to Set GoalsI know, I talk about goals a lot. They’re so important to creating your dream life because they give you a direction to go in. After all, how can you get where you want to go without a map to guide you?  But having a roadmap isn’t the only reason you should set great goals for yourself. The right goal holds a lot of power, and in today’s episode I’m sharing seven surprising reasons you should set goals. Yes, this episode is timed perfectly with the New Year, but goals should be part of your l...2022-01-1208 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 26: Seven Strategies to Turn Your Dreams into RealityHave you ever wondered how some people seem to have everything they dream of, while for others their dreams remain unrealized or forgotten entirely?  It’s not about luck, it’s not about genetics, and it certainly isn’t closing your eyes and wishing. Rather, it’s all about STRATEGY.  Taking strategic action is essential to achieving your dream life! In this episode, I’m sharing seven strategies you can use now to help turn your dreams into reality, so you can stop dreaming and start creating the life you want.  Be sure to li...2022-01-0515 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #25: Speed Up the Arrival of Your DreamsDo you want to reach your dreams faster? Of course you do! So why does it feel like it’s taking so long? One reason might be because you haven’t uncovered your BIG dreams yet.  It’s essential to be crystal-clear on what your dreams are before you start thinking about your goals, next project, or new year resolutions; because if you haven’t envisioned how you want your life to be, how do you go about creating it?  In this episode, I’m sharing six questions to ask yourself that will help you get clear on...2021-12-2212 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #24: Connect with IntentionMost of the women I work with desire deeper connections in their lives. They want to feel closer to their partner, children, and even their friends, but aren’t sure how to make it happen.  The truth is that most of our interactions with others are reactions or habits. Someone says “good morning” to you, and you reply the same. Your partner kisses you as they hand you your coffee (how sweet!), and you say “love you”. There’s nothing wrong with this, but there is another way to connect, too. With intent.  When you learn to conne...2021-12-1512 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 23: Developing a Mindset for MomentumWhen you’re living your life with momentum, it means you’re doing a little more every day to move closer to what you want… and do less of what’s holding you back.  It sounds so simple, yet many of us struggle to maintain momentum even when we briefly find it. It’s frustrating to find yourself in the groove, only to lose it a short time later! So why does it keep happening?   In today’s episode, I’m sharing four reasons that you fail to create momentum, four fears that are slowing you down, and the...2021-12-0818 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #22: The Beliefs You Need to Be SuccessfulYour beliefs in who you are and what you can accomplish have everything to do with how successful you are at creating your extraordinary life. Now is the perfect time to start thinking about your own.  During the holiday season you’ll be seeing more of your family and friends, and these people are the basis for most of the beliefs you have about yourself. Yet these beliefs may not support the life you’re craving, because rather than creating them yourself, they were passed on to you.  In today’s episode, I’m sharing the three...2021-12-0119 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode 21: 6 Ways to Integrate Gratitude into Your Daily LifeIt’s Thanksgiving here in the United States, which is a time to slow down and be grateful for what you have.

But in today’s modern, digital world, there is a lot more that we need to feel fulfilled. Just ask any of my clients when they first come to work with me; they have a good life by anyone’s standards, but still feel stuck. They are dreaming of something more.  One way to feel inspired in your life again is by introducing newness into your life.  Adding new things is also one way to activate the first Human...2021-11-1716 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #19: What Defines an Extraordinary Life?The women that I see creating extraordinary lives aren’t unusual people. They haven’t been climbing the Himalayas or heading Fortune 500 companies, or unlocking hidden mysteries of the human body. They are the same people you see at the grocery store, driving their kids to soccer practice, or helping their aging parents with yard work. They really are people just like you.  Still, it can be hard to envision what an “extraordinary life” might look like if you have been living a comfortable life in the status quo for years (or decades!). But it’s okay to want mor...2021-11-1013 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #18: Create Habits That Work For You With Special Guest, Kai DeeringI’m really excited about this week’s podcast, because I am interviewing Kai Deering, a fellow entrepreneur I’ve really connected with during the pandemic. She’s been sharing about her own routines and habits lately, so I brought her onto the show to talk about them.  What I love about Kai is that she isn’t afraid to break the rules when it comes to creating her extraordinary life. She’s crafted a life that not only works with her personality and lifestyle, but one that supports her goals and dreams.  Listen in for a unique p...2021-11-0327 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #17: How to be Courageous in Your LifeWe’ve reached the sixth and final High Performance Habit in this series of podcasts, which is demonstrating courage. And no, I’m not going to ask you to rescue someone from a burning building. Rather, I’m talking today about showing up with courage in your daily life. Stepping outside your comfort zone can be one of the hardest things you do in life, but it often comes with the greatest reward. Listen to hear how being courageous will help you become a better version of yourself and help you achieve your goals and dreams… and it’s som...2021-10-2713 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #16: Three Ways to Increase Your InfluenceIf you are a parent or a person in a leadership position, you’ve probably thought about how you influence those around you. You want to set a good example for your kids and help them grow into responsible adults, or you want your team at work to achieve milestones and achieve their best. But have you thought about how increasing your influence can actually help you reach your own goals faster? And no, this isn’t about making others do your bidding. Rather, it's about creating the ideal environment to achieve your goals where your interactions with...2021-10-2022 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #15: A Different Way to Look at ProductivityToday, I’m inviting you to look at the definition of productivity differently; it isn’t about doing more, but doing more to reach your goals. The type of productivity I’m talking about is how to do the things that matter the most, and skipping the rest where you can.  It sounds simple enough, doesn’t it? So why are most people feeling like they aren’t productive enough, and feel overwhelmed when it comes to getting it all done? A big one is that we don’t know how to prioritize our tasks. This is because we ar...2021-10-1319 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #14: Increase the Necessity of Your GoalsDo you have things in your life that you just DO, no matter what? Even when you are tired or just don’t want to, you make yourself get up and get going? If you’re a Mom, I bet you have a list as long as your arm. I know that when my kids were younger, I made their school lunches every morning because it was so important to me that they had good food to eat during the day.  The necessity of my goal (feeding my kids certain foods) was so high that I just did i...2021-10-0617 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #13 How to Increase Your Mental EnergyToday I’m talking about generating energy, the second High Performance Habit. Taking care of our energy is so important because if you don’t have enough of it, how are you going to go after the things you want in life? The High Performance Institute has studied how our energy levels impact our lives, and they show that energetic people are more likely to have a high level of success. They're also more likely to pursue education, be more creative, have better relationships, and be more assertive. And it makes sense; when you have more fuel, you...2021-09-2918 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #12: Clarify Your Life VisionEven if, like me, you aren’t trying to be the most successful person in the world, you still deserve an extraordinary life that you love. In today’s episode, I’m sharing the very first step in creating it: clarifying your life vision.  This also happens to be the first of the six High Performance Habits that my coaching is built around. These habits are for anyone trying to create a life full of meaning and joy, and finding clarity is the most important habit of them all; because once you know what you want with utmost...2021-09-2218 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #11: How to Avoid the Negative Side of HabitsAs a coach who literally teaches how to embrace habits to create an extraordinary life, it may surprise you that I’m bringing up the negative side of routines. I love my morning routine and how it sets me up for the day, and I wouldn’t change much about it. On the other hand, my evening habit of eating ice cream happened so often that I would head to the freezer each night without even thinking about it. The difference between the two habits (other than one of them made me gain a few pounds,) is that one is d...2021-09-1515 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #10: My Tools For Feeling GoodWhen it comes to creating routines and habits in our lives, the reason why is simple: we want to feel good!

Yet getting back into those habits is always easier said than done. To help me get a jumpstart on routine this year, I picked up a copy of James Clear’s book, Atomic Habits. There wasn’t anything surprising to me in the book (after all, I’m a High Performance Habits coach), but it was interesting to see things from a new perspective.  In today’s episode, I’m comparing the first three chapters of Clear’s book...2021-09-0112 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #8: How To Create Better RelationshipsRelationships are a key part of our happiness in life, whether with our partners, friends, or coworkers. In fact, creating happier and more connected relationships is a big part of creating your extraordinary life. Unfortunately, many of us don’t know how to do that - even when we want to. And I’m speaking from experience!  My husband and I have a great relationship now, but that wasn’t always the case during the early days of our marriage and parenting. We were actually joking the other day about how passive-aggressive I used to be, which made me...2021-08-2510 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #7: Overcome the Overwhelm in Your LifeWhen you have big dreams and goals in your life, it makes sense that overwhelm will strike now and then. You’re trying to balance your existing life with creating a better, more fulfilling one, and that comes with swirling thoughts competing for your attention; and when you’re overwhelmed it becomes harder to take positive actions toward those dreams. Unless, that is, you know how to work through it and come out with a plan.  Today, I’m sharing six steps to overcoming the overwhelm, so you can create the extraordinary life you crave.

The “more” could be meaning, satisfaction, time, health, or any number of things, and each person’s journey is very personal and unique. That’s why it can be hard to know what to expect when you begin working with a coach! Your friend’s experience won’t be the same as yours. Yet because it’s nice to have some sort of idea of what to expect, I've pu...2021-08-1109 minThe Extraordinary Life PodcastThe Extraordinary Life PodcastEpisode #5: 7 Things You Can Do Now to Move To Move Toward Your DreamsWhen you're ready to dream big and invite change into your life, it’s exciting!

Gratitude. You hear about it a lot, and how important it is in creating a happier life and improving mental health. I’ve even written about it, and how it can help you manage stress before it even starts.
