HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT MENTOR OR COACH   Finding the right person to help you can be tricky. You want to leap into your journey with a trusted advisor. However, all mentors and coaches are not the same.   I recently met a business mentor at an event. She shared her topics of expertise as we talked about some recent changes in the business world. This felt like a mutually interesting, and rather pleasant conversation. Minutes later, she ushered her friend to come over to chime in, who was also a business coach. Immediately, the tone changed from warm and inviting to cold, over-powering and direct. The other coach immediately started to find fault and poke holes in our meaningful conversation.   This interaction led me to this realization; There is much to consider when choosing the right helpers in our lives. I would caution anyone to start with your personality type when seeking a coach or mentor. In today's episode, I sit down and give you some practical tools for finding the right person to help you with the major decisions in your life.

Grab The Accountability Planner This Month Here: https://artisanal-founder-9313.ck.page/products/accountability-planner   In this episode, I sit down and go over goal setting and accountability. We talk about goals in the beginning of the year, but we can not skip past...Accountability!   I also talk about. What is accountability? How to improve personal accountability? How to really hold people accoutable? And how do we hold ourselve and our children accountable. What does accountability for kids look like? How to hold kids accountable? How to teach kids accountability? We need to first start with ourselves.   Grab The Accountability Planner this month, hold yourself to execution without overwhelm.        HOW TO SET GOALS AND BE ACCOUNTABLE     Are you struggling to stay on top of your to-do list? Feeling like you're never really accomplishing anything? If so, you're not alone. A lot of us have trouble setting goals and then holding ourselves accountable to actually achieving them. But it doesn't have to be that way! With a little bit of effort, you can learn how to set goals and be accountable for reaching them. Here are some tips to get you started:   During the beginning of the year, or the start of a new project, we can be overly excited and then reality sets in and accountability dwindles. What does it take to keep going and finish what we've started? How can we take a position of accountability towards our goals and dreams?   First, figure out what you want to accomplish. This may seem obvious, but it's important to start with a clear goal in mind. What do you want to achieve? Once you know that, you can start working on a plan to make it happen.   Next, break down your goal into smaller steps. When we have a big goal that seems impossible, it can be helpful to break it down into smaller pieces. That way, we can focus on one thing at a time and feel like we're making progress instead of getting overwhelmed.   Finally, hold yourself accountable by setting regular reminders or deadlines. Make sure to check in with yourself periodically (weekly or monthly) to see how you're doing. And don't forget to celebrate your successes along the way!   Setting goals and being accountable for reaching them doesn't have to be difficult or tedious. By following these simple tips, you'll be on your way to becoming more productive and achieving the things you want in life! How to improve personal accountability Personal accountability is about being responsible and owning what happens in your life. It doesn't mean that you never make mistakes, but it does mean that you learn from your mistakes and take responsibility for your life. To be more accountable, think before you act and be aware of your words and actions. Taking responsibility for what we say, do, and decide will help us improve our ability to control our own lives.   It is important to set goals to reach our ambitions and improve our lives. With each goal, we need to stay committed, take ownership of our plans and strive for smaller wins along the way. This is where accountability comes in - by being accountable we can stay on track and keep ourselves driven no matter how challenging our journey.   Some journeys are undoubtly harder than others. That's why it is imperative to create personal and social accountability. We must also understand that there is a difference between responsibility and accountability. Having one without the other will not help us grow.     This year let’s commit to being accountable and crushing our goals! Implementing specific processes for self-accountability is key if you really want your dreams to come true. So don't wait any longer; grab The Accountability Planner to hold yourself more accountable, execute with more intention, and finally reach your goals this year! That way you'll be light years ahead on achieving success!      

What can catapult your life this year?  These 3 Things! 1. Make sure your resolutions are realistic, achievable and measurable so that you can track your progress throughout the year.   2. Take into account any obstacles or challenges you may face when creating your resolution, and develop strategies to help you stay on track and achieve your goals.   3.

How We Miss God Through Religion   Today, I sit down and talk to author Micheal Ward about Religion vs Relationship with God.   We also talk about different religions, how to read the Bible in a year, and what are the fruits of the spirit?   Oftentimes, we can miss a wholesome relationship with God with religion. Religion can be rule based, where as, our relationship with God is heart-based.   In his book The Sixth Sola, Micheal explains a clear relationship with God, and how to grow deeper with God by reading the Bible each day. His framework will help you map out a plan to complete your goal to grow with God. Michael Joseph Ward (born July 7, 1961) is the youngest of four of a split Roman Catholic/Presbyterian/Lutheran family. Due to the complexity of the various messages heard, he developed a system of reading the New Testament, one chapter a day, in pursuit of the essential message amongst the many promoted by others. It became clear that no one “Church” owned the message, but our common Scriptures suggest a core principle to walk in the Spirit. We are each called to a renewed mind, a transformation for every moment, as we have another day to produce more fruit of the Spirit for God’s creation. His first book, "The Sixth Sola' is released in June 2020.   Please Share, Rate, and Subscribe to this podcast anywhere you're listening from.

He needed someone to help him with a project, and he needed someone fast. So, he did what he always did when he needed help: He hired the first person who came to mind, Bill, a new hire with little experience in the area of expertise. Unfortunately, this time, he made a mistake. The new employee was very talented and had a lot of potential. But, this untrained employee also cost the boss a lot of money. Bill made costly mistakes that ended up costing the boss more than if he had just hired the right person in the first place.   In the end, the boss learned his lesson and vowed never to make the same mistake again. He promised himself that next time, he would take his time and find the perfect employee for the job. It's so important not to skip processes when hiring, you could actually be hurting your company.

BUSINESS IDEA ROADMAP https://www.subscribepage.com/business-idea-checklist-offer   What's holding you back from being the person you want to be?  Often times we hold ourselves back without even realizing it. We get in our own way by convincing ourselves that we can't do something or aren't good enough. We sabotage our own success by putting limitations on ourselves. The truth is, we can do anything we set our minds to. We are capable of anything we want to be. We just have to believe in ourselves and go for it.   The key to success is within you. You must believe in your own ability and worthiness before anyone else will. We all have moments where we feel like giving up--like nothing we do ever seems good enough, or even possible for that matter; but as long as one person believes in us then anything can happen because their belief creates momentum which drives toward greatness no matter what obstacles arise along the way What's holding you back from being the person you've always dreamed of?  We all have days when we tell ourselves that it's not worth the effort. But, as hard and challenging as life may seem sometimes-you are only limiting your potential by accepting these limitations for granted! You can be someone else or do something new if you want too; there isn't any reason why every person should allow themselves impossible demands on who they are now (and what future success could bring). Of course, this isn't always easy. We all have our doubts and insecurities. But if we want to achieve our goals, we have to push through them. We have to find the courage to believe in ourselves, even when we don't feel like it. So don't let yourself hold you back, become all of who you were born to be In this episode we'll take a look at how you might be sabotaging your success and what you can do to start being aware of those sneaky little habits that threaten our opprotunities. Grab your coffee and learn how to start achieving your goals today!   Before I first started my business,  I worked on my talent for over 7 years under an experienced salon owner You don't need to spend years in college or quit your job to become an entrepreneur.    There are countless opportunities for work at home and online business ideas if you are just simply developing your talent!   Don't let "experts" tell you to quit your job and have no income to support yourself, your kids, or your lifestyle.    You can still work and become a business owner all at the same time! You can eventually scale and become a full time entrepreneur.  BUSINESS IDEA ROADMAP https://www.subscribepage.com/business-idea-checklist-offer  

How do you define self-care? Self care can be defined in so many different ways to so many different people. It means something different to everyone. From taking a mini-vacation, having boundaries, eating right, to getting that weekly massage. Self-care is not selfish. It is an essential part of our well-being that allows us to operate at our best. When we neglect our self-care routines, we end up frustrated, empty and unable to give our best selves to the people in our lives. By taking some time for ourselves each day, we can fill up our tanks and better navigate the world around us. So this year, let's make self-care a priority and watch how much happier and more productive we can be! What are some ways we can recognize when we aren't taking care of ourselves on the inside?

How to Win in 2022| New Year’s Resolutions 2022 Can you believe we are in 2022? Wow! We're here. In today's episode, I give 5 foundational tips to get you started in the right direction this year. This tips are not the goals, but, what it takes to achieve your goals and grow exponentially from the inside out this year.      Do an assessment of your life.    Where are you now and where do you want to be? This can be in your personal life, business, relationships, or any area of your life.   Assessment involves a high level of honesty, integrity and humility.  When we are getting honest with ourselves, sometimes, it’s not easy to look at. But, if we constantly deny where we are, we can’t get to where were going. So, being honest with our life assessments is an imperative step to growing exponentially in 2022.     Stop caring what people think   Decide once and for all- You could care less about what they think because they, don’t buy your food, put clothes on your back or shoes on your feet- and if they do, you still need to think for yourself boo.  When we care what people think, it can literally paralyze us and cause us to overthink out gifts, abilities and talents, or even quit.    Example- We are born with creativity, ideas, abundance and the world come along and snatches that away.      Surround yourself with Positive People and Energy    People who actually want you to have it and run with it.  I can give you so many examples of how I placed myself in environments of shame, blame and negativity, all because it was familiar.  Some familiar environments aren’t conducive to your exponential growth.  And if you don’t have many friends, know this, you have God.     Organize your priorities   Sometimes life is just unorganized and unfruitful because of this one thing. Plan your life according to your priorities.  If you’re in school, that takes priority over endless fun.  If you’re a parent, that takes priority over everything. Any priority in your life is like a jewel under the earth. If you dig for it with focus and attention, you get the jewel, if not, you overlook the brilliant shine in your life.     Focus on Your Goals Myopically When a horse is running a race, he had blinders on. He can’t look to the left or right because if he does, he’ll get distracted and try to run in the other lane, and move exactly like his opponent, and mess everything up.   Thank you for listening.

Self-Love Journey   Are you wondering what’s the next step for your life as far as having an authentic self-love journey.   I’ve often found that we are pretending a lot in life, walking through familiar settings, not really loving ourselves as we should.   How do you develop self-love?   We develop self-love by making authentic choices, choosing ourselves over everyone else. Now, I know that sounds a bit selfish. However, you will never be able to be good for anyone else unless you love yourself.   Why is self-love so important?    Self-love is so important for so many reasons.  First, you are the machine of your life.  If you never stop to oil the machine, you won’t be able to move powerfully through this life.  Self-love is the oil to our machines.   What is the key to self-love?   The key to self-love is constantly letting go of the things that no longer fuel your soul.  From toxic relationships to environments and all in between. Letting go is like moving the needle towards the positive area in our lives.   What is the feeling of self-love?   When we finally arrive at self-love, the feeling is euphoric, causing us to finally breath in all of God’s goodness, and the life we deserve with clear hearts and minds.    Today, I sit down and talk with author, Nenia Corcoran, a survivor of domestic violence and advocate for self-love and self-care.  Nenia is the author of two books, and helps young people understand the power of loving yourself enough to let go.    Purchase her book here: https://www.amazon.com/He-Loves-Not-Nenia-Corcoran/dp/0578893843/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_1?crid=2I4VS0R62QIFW&keywords=Nina+corcoran%2C+he+loves+me+not&qid=1636062874&qsid=140-4951281-9381117&sprefix=nina+corcoran%2C+he+loves+me+not%2Caps%2C82&sr=8-1-fkmr2&sres=B0716J6G8X%2CB095BRZYP2%2CB01IS6XXYW%2CB000G5Z3RO%2C0578893843%2CB08JJT6VKS%2CB086HWYNC8%2CB07WPYC3FS&srpt=ABIS_EBOOKS  

Do you realize how much unworthiness can completely guide your path?  In today's episode, Something to Sip On, I give your some practical advice to move past unworthiness on a daily basis.  Start challenging the familiar and rise up on the inside to get EVERYTHING  God has for your life.  Also, things are about to take a shift around here.  I've got some exciting news to share soon. So, grab your coffee and enjoy the show! This episode is also about. What are signs of low self-esteem? Low self-esteem symptoms? Signs of low self-esteem in a woman? What causes low self-esteem? What causes low self-esteem in a man? What is the root cause of low self-esteem? How to overcome unworthiness?    

What is low self-esteem? Low self-esteem is when someone lacks confidence about who they are and what they can do. They often feel incompetent, unloved, or inadequate. People who struggle with low self-esteem are consistently afraid about making mistakes or letting other people down   How do we get to a point in life where we have low or no self-worthiness? How does this type of thinking effect every area of our lives?   Believe it or not, it shows up in our relationships, parenting, connections and even our goals for the future.  If we believe something about ourselves way down on the inside, chances are, those same thoughts, beliefs and ideas show up on the outside.   Today, I have the awesome opportunity to speak with a mindset/self- development  coach and learn more about “Self-worthiness”. How we arrive at it? How do we keep it? Alexa  Martin is a mindset coach helping overwhelmed and anxious high achievers learn how to feel calm, clear & confident. She coaches through 1:1, corporate workshops and leads a group program - LMTLSS. Alexa is passionate about helping her clients ditch autopilot, guilt, stress and ‘shoulds’ in order to empower them to create a life they love. She is a learner at heart, committed to continuously growing, and loves to have fun while doing it.    IG: alexakmart Website: www.alexakmartin.com         This episode is also about:   What are signs of low self-esteem? Low self-esteem symptoms? Signs of low self-esteem in a woman? What causes low self-esteem? What causes low self-esteem in a man? What is the root cause of low self-esteem? How to overcome unworthiness?    

Whether aware or not, our minds can take us far.  Our minds have the power to heal or hurt.  So, the big question is, how do we gain control over our mindset? How do we gain control over our emotions? How do we overcome depression? How can we can our energy into positivity?

Addictive Behaviors Something to Sip On   Have you ever wondered, what is an addictive behavior? Where do addictions come from? Why can’t I get over my addiction? How to change an addictive behavior?     Our series on addiction has been life changing   We covered Sex, Relationship, Energy, Healing, Children and next week we will cover food but now I wanted you to have something to sip on     I talk with my friends, children and sister about the weakest link, the weakest link has the ability to make all of life unstable.   I remember a time when we were little and all the neighborhood kids would be playing tug of war, it’s a simple but fun game where each team is split into equal parts and the goal is to pull the rope with the other team forward, so they can fall over, if you’ve done this optimal accomplishment, then you’ve won!   But, the thing about the weakest person on the team, you can’t put them towards the back because the most power needs to be at your foundation.   And just like this game of tug of war, in life we don’t need the weakest link at our foundations.  If we have the weakest link pretending to be the strongest link, when we go to rely on this link, everything will just fall apart.    Sometimes, our weakest links look like a phone call with the wrong person, a gossiping conversation, a dinner out with a coworker that might lead to much more than your favorite steak dinner, a smile too long, your favorite dessert laying on the counter, in indulgence that we just can’t handle.   Whatever your weakest link is, it’s your obligation to your soul, to locate it, be honest with yourself…We must find out our weak links to strengthen them so they become obsolete or our strongest building blocks for authentic change.        How to work on the weakest link?     Keep a Log. Find the Patterns: addictions can be triggered by a feeling, a place, a memory, or even a smell Write a quick accountability lesson to yourself: If you failed, you’ll look back on this time as a reflection of hope, trying to reach a place of peace, center and self-control Find the obvious connections. Connect with a supportive network. Be Aware of Your Thoughts and Actions immediately bring yourself to awareness Try to hold yourself accountable without any judgement or anxiety if your fail, for this might bring you back into addictive behaviors,   For more help:   Contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

This conversation is filled with so much food for your soul and fuel for your life.  Not only does Daniel Levin help us to untangle hard conversations, our paths, and our businesses, but he give so many gems.   How do we know which path God has for us?   How can we ever walk into our life's purpose and have the courage to leave our jobs?   How do we finally find joy and inner peace?   Daniel Bruce Levin walked away from an opportunity to run a business that was a household name in order to hitchhike around the world to find happiness and inner peace. The people he met along his journey remind him a lot of the characters in The Mosaic. For most of his life, Levin felt different. He saw things others did not see and thought in ways that were unlike the ways of his peers. It made him feel alone and isolated, and though he knew how to play the game and interact with others well, he never felt he was the same as them. This all changed when he started to work with leaders seeking innovation. Suddenly, it was his ability to see differently that made him a sought-after commodity. Levin, a connectivity expert and business leader, works with governmental organizations, corporations and businesses to improve how people treat themselves and each other. Sharing a message of unification, he is a popular speaker for groups whose focus is on problem- solving, innovation and conflict resolution. He is married to the woman of his dreams, and is the lucky father of a beautiful special needs daughter who teaches him unconditional love, a fun-loving step son, a brilliant step daughter and a very needy Golden Retriever. They live together three blocks from the ocean feeling very blessed to be alive.   Purchase The Mosiac: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D64H9H6/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0

Genesis Amaris Kemp A Wife A Sister Creative Content Writer / Author Child of God After years in corporate America with unfair treatment and being overlooked, she stood up for herself and now inspires the world to take the initiative to stop being overlooked in her latest book, Chocolate Drop in Corporate America.  She is a professional who now knows what her purpose in life is. It is not to sit down, muzzle her  mouth, and continually let people get over on her. She knows her worth! Genesis believed that it was  time to speak up, activate her faith, and walk into her destiny that God has on her life. She  encourages you to take a leap of faith and get out of your comfort zone. If you are wondering what you should do next well take a step back and write down all the things you are good at. Out of those things which bring you joy, fulfillment, and you can ultimately see yourself making a change not just in your life but in your community and beyond. Then formulate a plan on how you can do those things and still bring in revenue because times are changing and one thing is for sure these jobs can come and go, but your empire and the legacy you build will ALWAYS be in existence as long as you have the right foundation and continue to cultivate it. You too can be all the things you ever imagined so stop limiting yourself by the things people say you cannot do or the limitations that have been placed on you
