2 Chicks and a Mic: You know for you! Pt 1

The “struggle” is real… but what’s real for you? This episode was inspired by something that happened in a few days. I have not recorded a podcast episode in the past couple weeks. It hasn’t been the greatest couple weeks. I was only trying to focus on the greatness and not recognizing on what is.

I talk about the choices that I made to pretend that everything is always good. I was going through a “struggle” and didn’t share it because I didn’t want to impune on anyone. I pretended that I was okay. But now that I  am acknowledging what I chose, my question is “what can I choose now?”

Check this out! I wonder if we can change the definition of “struggle”. The fun is in the journey for me! What if we rename the word struggle to journey and make it more “cool”.

How can we fall in love with the struggle and what if it’s not horrible and bad.

DM me on Instagram with a “👍🏼“ emoji and let me know if you’re willing to recognize what is and know that you always have a choice.

TOP 3 REASONS WHY PEOPLE QUIT A WORKOUT ROUTINE:

1. What other word can we use instead of struggle?
2. What can you choose moving forward from a “struggle”?
3. The fun is in the journey!

Did you know that the number 1 reason people quit working out is because of their perceived lack of time?

What if we can recognize what is, and know that everything is a choice? 

For the last 3 weeks, I have been on a huge city wide fitness tour. Touring new fitness studios, instructors and different fitness modalities. This episode was born from what I was noticing during my tour and also from my past 25+ years of teaching fitness and dance. 

Listen in to the top 3 reasons and ask how they pertain to you and if they can help you in other aspects of your life. 

Are you familiar with any of these 3 reasons? DM me on Instagram with a “👍🏼“ emoji and let me know if you’re willing to recognize what is and know that you always have a choice.

TOP 3 REASONS WHY PEOPLE QUIT A WORKOUT ROUTINE:

1. Perceived lack of time.
2. Exercise related injuries.
3. Not having fun!

Want more money? Then you’re in for a different one this time! It’s time to learn som new tools when it comes to money that actually works. 

(I’m not kidding - these tools work and will change your relationship with money. You read!) 

Most of the time we are not even aware where and how we’re rejecting money. Our rejections can show up in so many different ways. Sometimes it can show up in a simple “No problem.” after someone says “Thank you.” In other times, it can show up in rejecting a compliment when someone gifts you and says something nice to you. 

If it is difficult to receive gratitude from someone and you say “No problem.” when they say “Thank you,” you put up an energetic wall. An energetic wall is a wall. A-N-D. . . a wall is a wall. And when you put up a wall, you put up a wall to ALL of what life has to offer. 

Again - a wall is a wall. 

When you put up a wall to gratitude, you put up a wall to energy. And when you put up a wall to energy, you put up a wall to money. That is how you’re rejecting money. 

How are you rejecting money? DM me on Instagram with a “👍🏼“ emoji and let me know if you’re willing to say “You’re welcome!” when someone says “Thank you.” to you. You in? 

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

• How a wall is a wall.
• When you reject gratitude, you reject energy.
• Money is energy.
• When you reject energy, you reject money.

Did you watch the Oscars?! Omg! It was such a great show!

I had tears running down my face during most of the acceptance speeches. It was incredible. So different from last year’s Oscars, right?

Well, my gal, Salome and I had a great chat about the Oscars. And with that, we brought up our thoughts about it and it transformed into so many questions. What is a point of view and perspective? What if we can just be?

I know it might sound a bit confusing but I promise you, it’s make sense once you listen to this awesome episode.

DM me on Instagram with a “👍🏼“ emoji and let me know your thoughts on this chat!

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

• What if we just are…?
• What are the possibilities if we just “chill’?
• How can you create more from past experiences?
• Are you able to feel more “free” if you lay back without judgment?

This is a public service announcement! 

How much water do you drink in one day? Is it enough? Most of the time. . . we are not intaking enough water for our bodies. I drink about 3 liters of water a day and I was dehydrated. I thought it was enough and my body requires more to be at its peak potential. 

Today I took a spin class and I saw that there was this one gal who did not sweat at all. It’s probably because she was dehydrated and had nothing to sweat out of her body. If you don’t have water in your body. . . then you can’t sweat. It’s not rocket science. :) It’s really simple. 

Questions you can ask yourself:

1. How much water do I drink in 1 day?
2. How much water did I drink when I woke up in the morning? 
3. Do I require a towel when I workout? 
4. Do I sweat when I workout? 

How much water are you drinking in a day? Do you hydrate when you wake up? DM me on Instagram with a “👍🏼“ emoji and let me know how much water you are drinking in a day. 

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

• How after 25+ years of teaching fitness I recognized how little we all drink. 
• Do not ask, “Are you drinking enough water?” Ask, “How much water are you drinking?” 
• The idea of enough water is relative and can mean different things to different people. 
• If you don’t require a sweat towel when you workout, you’re probably dehydrated. 
• The importance of drinking water right when you wake up.

You know that moment when you look back and ask, “Where did the time go?” This episode is all about how to recognize when 1 day is starting to turn into 1 year.

In this episode, I talk about how to recognize when time is beginning to creep in. 3 weeks ago, I received an email that our beloved fitness studio where I teach and have so many loved members would be closing. We were all devastated. My ask of the members is to keep their momentum going. An object in motion stays in motion. The past 3 weeks have gifted me so much awareness and have reminded me about the pandemic and how things can change quickly without notice.

We are coming up on our 3 year anniversary of the start of the lock down and the pandemic. Can you remember what you desired during the slow down? I wanted to accomplish so much during those 2 weeks. And now looking back, I recognize that 2 weeks turned into 3 years.

What are you avoiding that is moving from 1 day to 1 year? DM me on Instagram with a ““ emoji and I wanna know what you think.

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

• How to recognize when 1 day is starting to become 1 year.
• An object in motion stays in motion. Keep going.
• We are coming up on the 3 year anniversary of the start of the pandemic.
• Ask yourself, “What did I receive from the last 3 years?”

Are you defining a distractor as a reason for not choosing something? 

One of my favorite sayings from when I would teach dance was, “Kids use excuses. Adults use reasons. They are the same thing, just described as something different.” A distractor is beautifully disguised to look like a reason to choose something that will keep your BIG dream small. 

Are you creating your life from judgment and not recognizing when you’re choosing a distractor that’s designed to keep you small?

I’m here to tell you, you can choose something different and learn how to recognize when a distractor is creeping in and they’re hard to notice. 

For the past 3 days, there was a huge distractor that crept in and kept me from choosing something that can totally elevate me and my businesses. This episode is about how I recognized it, shifted it and chose something different so I didn’t judge the sh!t out of me ;) LOL! 

Are you willing to recognize when you’re using a “reason” to keep your dreams small and choose a BIGGER LIFE and BIGGER dreams? DM me on Instagram with a “👍🏼“ emoji if you’re ready to release your judgments. 

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

• Distractors are perfectly disguised to keep you small. 
• You always have a choice!
• How I was playing the victim role and using the “reasons” to keep my dreams small.
• How to recognize what you’re choosing and then make another choice.

Distractors are so beautifully designed to keep you small! What?! 

Are you willing to recognize when a distractor is creeping in and keeping you from choosing something that can create more for your life?

In this episode, I share how I recognized a DISTRACTOR creeping in so that I wouldn’t choose something that can totally change my business and increase my revenue. 

I am currently questioning a new investment of $5,000 and recognizing how I have invested in the past and have increased my revenue by $100,000. What?! And I am rethinking this investment? That’s nuts! ;) Choosing to not invest this time is such a distraction. 

It’s time to recognize when a distractor is creeping in and notice when they’re keeping you small. 

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

• Distractors are beautifully disguised to keep your life small. 
• The sole purpose of distractors are to keep you small so you don’t choose bigger! 
• How I am working through a distractor of an investment for a future business mastermind.
