Breathwork is a very useful tool if you are someone who wants to achieve a better sense of self-awareness, higher consciousness and as my guest mentions, ‘self-healing’. Our body is a natural healer and breathwork is a proven effective tool to mentally, physically and spiritually, improve our overall well-being.

In this episode, I speak with Kelly West, a Registered Nurse, Certified Neuro Coach and lover of breathwork! She helps caregivers banish burnout and build resiliency. We talk about the benefits of breathwork, especially to people who experience anxiety, depression, and trauma. Kelly also shared an interesting story about how she got serious in improving her own health and total wellness.

With her combined knowledge with Neuro Coaching and breathwork, she has focused on helping women get unstuck in life, to let go of the baggage and negative energy and connect the mind and body to bring greater healing so they can achieve their desires without any distraction.

EP84: Today's message is once more coming straight from my intuition, prompted with a card from my Energy Oracle card deck, and it's a discussion about your 2021 journey.

Where will your journey take you in the next 12 months? What do you plan to focus on?

In this episode I talk about 3 different journey buckets... Physical, Mental, and Spiritual.

Or shall we call them adventure buckets? I resonate more deeply with the word adventure because it implies fun along the way! That word just SOUNDS fun, doesn't it?

In this episode I share examples and things I have planned for my 2021 adventures. And what I'd like you to do after listening, spend some time in quiet thought and then write down at least ONE ADVENTURE for each bucket. Title that piece of paper: "My 2021 Journey" and then get to work adventuring!!! ‍

Here's the exact wording from the card:

Journey - Movement, Relocation, Travel

"Pack your bags! The Journey card foretells upcoming travel or a shift in location. It may be...

Did you know that there are 12 scientific laws of the universe? Most people know of the Law of Attraction since that was the subject of the book "The Secret" and then later the movie. Well, there are more and we talk about a lot of them on this episode. And they are all fascinating!!!

My latest podcast guest, Janice Berkenheger, is an expert on these laws and focuses on 7 of them in particular! Not only that, she uses them in as tools in her life and her business as a Manifesting and Money Coach.

Janice is the founder of Janice Berkenheger Coaching and has helped many women discover how to use Universal Laws and Manifesting to create the life and business they dream of.

I had so much fun talking about these laws with Janice and hearing her stories about these laws have helped her throughout her life, even before she even knew what they were. In fact, I felt we ran out of time so we'll have to do a follow up episode!

Janice believes that we all have these tools inside of us, even if...

In this episode I share the 3 most important things to get started right this year, if you're ready to truly start fresh and have an amazing year.

#1: Look back and let it go. Don't bring your baggage of 2020 (or before!) into 2021!

#2: Pick ONE THING and make a plan. Think of actions that will inch you toward it.

#3: Drop the old habits and adopt new ones. Identify the habits that aren't serving you and your one thing. And pick a new habit that will accomplish both.

Today I want to share a different but incredibly effective weight loss solution called The Plan. It has been life-changing for me and I know it can be that for you too!

What you will learn about how your body reacts to the foods you are eating that you may think are healthy is nothing short of jaw-dropping. And if you follow The Plan as prescribed, you will see your weight drop drastically as you develop your list of 'friendly" foods.

I share a bit of the science behind this fascinating approach to weight loss, and hope, if you are looking to make adjustments towards a healthier lifestyle in 2021, this will help you.

It isn't just a weight loss solution though... What I've found is that it is a life improvement solution! You will gain so much more than a new pant size!!! Less aches and pains, less sluggishness and exhaustion, less sleepless nights, less brain fog, and less frustration with other solutions that might not be working for you.

You can find The Plan on Amazon here.

My guest today is "The Queen of Damn Near Everything!" Yep, that is what she calls herself and she really lives up to her name. Patti Phillips is an international best selling author, stand up comedienne, a blogger, realtor, entrepreneur, artist, traveler, a mom and all around amazing person. And that's just the tip of tiara! (She is literally wearing a tiara during our interview!)

Patti really stood out to me when I came across her Instagram feed so I reached out to her to see if she'd like to be a guest on my show. And she turned out to be a perfect fit as I learned more about her and her mission of helping midlife women to live a royal life.

I love Patti's open and honest attitude as she shares her life lessons as well as her varied interests, including how she got into gigging as a stand up comedienne. She even talks about what she learned from her failed marriages and how she met her new love who appears to be a perfect fit.t.

If you are looking for some midlife inspiration,...

When you have spent most of your life as a mom, it's a major transition to adjust your life without your kids being around. One day they are there and then poof, they are gone! And many of us parents feel lost when the that happens and are left feeling lost and without purpose.

After my Midlife Mindset Mastery last week, I received several emails from women who are struggling with the empty nest and it prompted the idea for this episode.

Since I already had the idea, I didn't use pull an Energy Oracle card as I often do to get inspiration for topics. BUT, right before I hit record, I decided to pull one anyway to see if the card would give me any additional inspiration to add to the topic I had decided upon.

I'm not sure why these card pulls still amaze me... Time and time again, they are EXACTLY in line with what is needed at the moment. I swear it's uncanny and it's made me such a believer that the universe is always listening to us.

As I mentioned on the episode, the card is:...

This episode is by far my most favorite because I get to spend almost an hour chit-chatting with one of my most favorite people, my oldest daughter, Nikki, Johnson, who is now old enough to qualify as a midlifer!!! Shocking I know!

We talk about her entrepreneurial journey and how it has transformed in the past couple of years from running a multi 6 figure network marketing business to starting her own company.

She's a Certified Crystal Healer, a Reiki Level II Practitioner, a Spiritual Coach, and the founder of the High Vibe School.

Nikki's passion is evident as she talks about living authentically and helping other women, especially stressed moms to find joy in their lives by raising their vibrations and building self-confidence

She talks about her initial skepticism about the "woo" and how she began researching the science behind it which led her to a deep interest in crystals and a then desire to get certified. She draws on her extensive knowledge to teach others about them as...

After her business partner and best friend died two years ago from mucosal melanoma, a rare type of skin cancer, my guest Sarah Graham Fuhrmann, was forced to figure out how to carry on the indoor rowing business they had founded together 10 years earlier.

It was difficult not only losing someone she loved but also the person, well-known for her rowing expertise, their "icanrow2" business was built around.

Sarah had to deal with her grief, along with the challenges of "imposter syndrome." She wrestled with how she could possibly run the company without the rowing experience her partner had brought to the table.

But she finally realized she had other extremely valuable, and just as important, business experience as well as other strengths, built over a long career of other jobs. And she also had very experienced "rowing" coaches that had been trained in the rowing certification program she and her partner had created.

Now Sarah, even with the challenge of the pandemic and having to...
