Join me on an enlightening journey as I delve into the profound question of why we are here. In this thought-provoking episode, I explore the intricacies of finding purpose and its transformative impact on our lives.For some, purpose reveals itself early, resonating deep within their souls like a melody that cannot be ignored. We'll explore the stories of musicians who find joy and fulfillment in expressing themselves through the enchanting language of music. Their art becomes a beacon, illuminating not only their own existence but also inspiring and touching the lives of others.But purpose isn't limited to artists alone. Whether you're a teacher, a coach, a mechanic, or anyone wanting to contribute, you'll discover a common thread that unites purpose-driven individuals. They recognize that their lives extend beyond their personal desires and needs. They embrace the understanding that they are here to make a difference, to leave an indelible imprint on the world.#Podcast #Purpose #SelfDiscovery #MakingADifference #Inspiration #PersonalGrowth*********Comment below 📝 and let me know if this helps!If you found this information useful please subscribe 🔔 for more helpful tips on how to face and embrace the curves of life!Be sure to subscribe to my channel so you never miss one of my Curves Welcome Podcast Episodes!Visit my website to get on my mailing list so you can always have access to helpful tips and tutorials I publish! https://curveswelcome.comConnect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/suziecarrbooks/
Procrastination can sneak in and steal many things from us. Here’s how I got rid of it in my life. I followed the sound advise of many people to eliminate busy work and fill my day with more impactful tasks. From there, I followed what James Clear, author of Atomic Habits, suggests to stop procrastination. I talk about what that looks like in this short video. If you wish to increase productivity and beat procrastination, there is a simple solution. It’s all about eliminating the ‘starting’ factor of a task by changing where the ‘starting’ factor falls in the sequence of the task. Essentially, you’re setting yourself up on advance so you remove any obstacles to getting your next task done.Our minds are so cool. Our minds are with us on our journey and will do what we ask them to do. To overcome procrastination is all about guiding your mind to perform important tasks in a manner you create. I’ll share what that manner might look like for you in this video. I’d love to hear from you on this. What is your secret sauce to stop procrastinating? Did this video resonate with you? Why or why not? Video referenced in podcast: https://youtu.be/5YNmNd2ncw00:00 Introduction to this episode0:56 Task types2:39 Why we need to stop this one thing4:44 What is habit stacking?5:59 The trick to planning your day7:40 Setting yourself up in advance9:33 How to remove obstacles that make it difficult to get started on something new11:34 How does this resonate?Be sure to subscribe to my channel so you never miss one of my Curves Welcome Podcast Episodes!Visit my website to get on my mailing list so you can always have access to helpful tips and tutorials I publish! https://curveswelcome.comConnect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/suziecarrbooks/

In a world that can sometimes feel distant and cold, it's comforting to realize that to find your best advocate you only need to look in the mirror. You are guaranteed to always be by your side for the rest of your life. But sometimes life tosses us curve balls and it can be difficult to get back in touch with yourself on a healthy level. In this episode of Curves Welcome, my special guest Leslie Lindsey Davis joins me and we chat about ways to nurture the best friend within. A little about Leslie, she’s published 5, almost 6, books, her first one being “You Can’t Eat Love: how learning to love yourself can change your relationship with food.” This book is in the Amazon top 20 in at least 2 categories since its release in January. After much reflection and experience, Leslie is on a mission to help others find their WHY to go on any journey of self-discovery, introduce them to their very best friend in the whole wide world, learn to love themselves, and live their best life.Connect with Leslie: https://youcanteatlove.com/Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction1:30 The journey to self-realization7:00 In control 9:40 Moving beyond broken14:42 Your best friend19:20 Victory points22:54 Favorite phrases dissected28:00 Words are powerful tools and weapons 30:40 You are enoughConnect with me: https://curveswelcome.com
I'm always on the lookout for ways to improve the quality of my life, and I feel after this podcast chat that I have a new tool in my quality life toolbox. My guest, Ann Hince, spiritual teacher, public speaker, and author, explains how she changed the direction of her life through the process of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as tapping.  Tune in to learn this very simple technique that you can start using immediately as I have! About Ann Hince: Ann has developed the ability to sense inside her body, and release physical tension stored in her connective tissue, using solely the focus of her mind. She has x-rays to show the physical changes resulting from this inner work - including changing the alignment of her eye sockets, the straightening of her neck, the centering of her lower jaw, and the growth of her tooth roots.Ann wants us all to know that we have this incredible power within us, it just takes going further with practices that you may already be doing.As many of you may know, changing what is on our inside, changes what we see on the outside, so it is Ann's belief that we can not only change our personal world, but also our collective world.Ann has a YouTube channel where she shares her journey, explains the connection between the physical and the spiritual, and will be posting videos of how to change the pressing issues of our time. Her book, A Pathway to Insight, details her journey and breaks down the steps she took to attain what she calls Insight, or the ability to see within the body.Connect with Ann Hince: https://annhince.com/Podcast Time Stamps: 0:00 Intro14:24 Welcome Ann Hince1:57 Defining moment to self-healing3:04 EFT technique5:15 Self-awareness is key6:52 Learning about EFT and tapping8:56 Becoming aware of how we feel13:06 Similarities to acupressure/acupuncture13:48 Letting go of stored emotions17:15 When we fully accept something, it’s debilitating features  dissipate20:07 Using the law of attraction23:10 Don’t aim for positive thinking to eliminate truth26:20 Changing physical through EFT31:10 Wrap up

Nutrition has the power to positively affect our lives. One of the most profound areas where this can occur is in the process of cancer treatment. Nutrition, in concert with traditional medical interventions, can help make cancer therapies more effective to increase chances of survival. In this episode of Curves Welcome podcast, I chat with Martha Tettenborn, RD about hacking chemo using "the ketogenic diet, therapeutic fasting, and a kickass attitude to power through cancer."

We've all been there when we've received criticism and felt badly about it. Maybe the feedback made us question our work, our worth, our very path in life. If we allow it to, this feedback can derail us. But the key in this is 'if we allow it to'. We have the control to take this feedback in any way we choose.  Sometimes feedback can be a tough pill to swallow,  but it can actually benefit us if we open up to it and find the helpful parts. In this episode, Ann Roberts - award-winning author, executive director of the Golden Crown Literary Society, and former educator - and I talk through ways we can benefit from feedback.Rather watch this interview on YouTube?https://youtu.be/nvbPk2TNe7w ABOUT ANN ROBERTSAnn Roberts is the award-winning author of twenty romance, mystery and general fiction novels, including the Ari Adams mystery series.

When I was in my late twenties, the last thing I ever imagined I’d do is walk through the doors of a dojo and sign on the dotted line to become a karate student. But destiny called me towards those doors and into a place I’d soon come to call my second home. I use the word destiny loosely here because I’m not sure many people might refer to a close call with a criminal in an alleyway a call to destiny. But I needed skills and confidence, and the dojo appeared when I needed it. To me that’s the definition of destiny. Mentors come in all forms. Mine just happened to come wearing a fifth degree blackbelt and a can-do attitude that told me everything was going to be okay. No criminal was ever going to get the best of me again, if I could help it. And I believe my mentor would say the same still to this day.My mentor Sensei Carlos taught me three very important life lessons that I carry with me to this day some twenty years later. And I’m able to still carry them because I was open and eager to soak up his knowledge. He was living his life the way I wanted to – with a healthy respect for self-control and how it can serve us when we find ourselves in perilous situations. SUBSCRIBE!
