We never move past it until we put our reps in. It's something we need to embrace and go through in order to get anywhere! Really, being uncomfortable is a requirement for growth.

You're having fun, you're interested, but you're not committed. And sometimes we are that way with our goals too. If people don't know what you're working towards, it probably means you haven't told them. And a lot of the time, in my own experience, that means I'm not really committed to that thing.

Project: Live with PurposeWhat Hustle Means to MeTime to get deep on WHY I named this podcast Project Hustle and why my team name is Team Hustle. I know there is so much controversy about the word "hustle" in general. So many people think it's a negative thing that you should never do. But to me it's different. To me, hustle is all about PASSION. Working towards a life that you're obsessed with and so fulfilled by. It's about going through a transition period of extra effort to ultimately live a lifetime of freedom. A lifetime of being right where you're meant to be...2021-06-2114 minBubble Baths & Business ChatsMy Manifestation Technique That Has a 100% Success Rate for MeI don’t claim to be a manifestation expert, but I must say that anytime I’ve actively worked on manifesting something in my business, it has come true.

Project: Live with PurposeWhat are you MISSING OUT on?We all have something that we want to do. Something that is on our heart, but there are just too many things holding us back from doing it. So let's flip the switch and think of the opportunity cost of NOT doing the thing. What are you actually missing out on by not giving it a try? Most of the time, the life that you could have as a result is worth so much more than whatever is holding you back. Maybe it's not enough time or money. But think about all the time you'll be given...2021-06-1409 min
Project: Live with PurposeTips for Starting a New RoutineStarting a new routine can be very overwhelming. Whether it's a fitness journey, new living arrangements, lifestyle, whatever it is, it can be stressful. But it doesn't have to be! Often times the reason why people are unsuccessful on their journey is because they didn't set themselves up for success in the first place. The way I see routine building is a 3 step process: mindset, do, reflect. Listen in on how I break these steps down and why each one is so important. I truly believe that if you apply these steps to ANY type of new...2021-06-0714 minBubble Baths & Business ChatsHow to Decide What to Offer Next and How to Title YourselfOne of the most common questions I receive as a coach is how do you decide what to offer next?

Project: Live with PurposeIt Starts with BeliefI used to have very little belief in myself. I used to think that straying from the path I was on just wasn't even worth considering. I'm a normal person, living a normal life. I'm not capable of achieving greatness.. that's just not in the cards I was dealt. But why not? When I started coaching I was introduced to this whole other perspective. A group of girls who BELIEVED they were capable of achieving their wildest dreams.. And slowly that made its way into my head. First I had to borrow the belief from my fellow...2021-05-3113 minBubble Baths & Business ChatsBuilding Sustainable Foundations for Your Business Before You ScaleSomething I see a lot in the online space is this feast and famine launch cycle approach.

In today’s episode, I’m discussing the importance of building a sustainable foundation for your business before you consider scaling.

Project: Live with Purpose"Should" Doesn't Guarantee SuccessWe always hear that we "should" do this and "should" do that. It's the right thing to do.. But what if it isn't? What if getting that stable 9-5 job that you think you "should" get doesn't bring you fulfilment? Or what if getting married at 25 like you "should" just puts extra stress on your relationship? Or what if buying a house right out of school like you "should" just puts you into serious debt. Maybe the things you're told you "should" do, won't really give you the life that you want.

But fear isn't always something to run from. We should EMBRACE the fear so we can grow as humans! Think about it, when trying something new, we always have ALL the fears (judgement, failure etc).

Project: Live with PurposeGive Yourself Grace, But Not Too MuchWe tend to be extremely hard on ourselves when we first start something new. And often this leads to us quitting. But you're supposed to suck when you first start! That's the whole point. You've got to give yourself grace and acknowledge that you have nowhere to go but up. But be careful, there's a difference between giving yourself grace and completely giving up. We often fall to procrastination for fear that we will fail again. But if you put it off, it'll be so much harder to get back in the game! So give yourself grace, b...2021-04-1910 min

But shouldn't YOU be your own number one priority? Doesn't it make sense that if you aren't at your best, you can't show up to other things at your best? Isn't that how it works? If you are only operating at 50%, doesn't that also mean your work is operating at only 50%? It's simple math. Pouring into yourself will actually fuel you with energy.

It's one thing to care what people think of you, but it's a whole different ball game when you let other people dictate your life choices. You are the only person that has to live with your actions. Not them.
