There is a habit many women have of saying things are “fine” when they’re really not. But is everything in your life really “fine”? Are you really “fine”? If you can’t honestly say “yes” to both of those questions then why do you keep saying it is, and you are? As you are planning your pivot, or planning to make changes in your life, one of the first steps is to get brutally honest with yourself about how you are feeling – about yourself and your life. In this episode of the For Kick-Ass Women Only podcast, Kathy not only talks about her own journey to getting honest about herself, but she also walks you through the toll it can take on your life when you are dishonest about your true feelings, and how to begin the journey to the truth of who you are. Listen in to learn why you must stop saying everything is fine – why you are worth  not saying everything is fine, and how your life can change when you do.   WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Why it is difficult for women to admit their true feelings, and make different choices for themselves, even when they know they aren’t fine. The surprising emotions that will arise when you take on the journey of being honest about your feelings. The very hefty mental and emotional toll it takes on you when you continue to insist you’re fine when you’re not. How easy it is to deceive yourself into believing you should be fine even if something inside of you is telling you otherwise. What it means to truly honor yourself, and how lying about being fine is the opposite of that.   STANDOUT QUOTES: “We (as women) are so used to being fine so that everybody else around us can feel stable, and feel supported, and feel encouraged, and feel they're on steady ground.” – Kathy [11:11] “Everything doesn't always have to be fine. Everything doesn't always have to be good.” - Kathy [13:07] “The more you say that everything's fine and it's not… the more disconnected you become from your true self because you can't have both; you can't have you authentically, truly, honestly, and powerfully, but also be lying… so that everybody else will feel good around you.” – Kathy [16:02] “We can't lay our mental and emotional health on that altar as a sacrifice in order to have something that looks good to everybody around us or to makes everybody around us feel better at the expense of ourselves.”- Kathy [19:21] “What I do believe is that when I am my best self, everything around me is going to be so much better.” - Kathy [20:13]   READY TO JUMP-START YOUR PIVOT?  Ladies, if you are feeling like time is passing by faster than ever; however, you still desire to create a life of more freedom, joy, adventure, money, and meaning.

How often do you use the words “should or “should have” when speaking? On the surface they may seem harmless, ways of considering alternate outcomes or holding yourself accountable. But, in reality, the use of those words are all at once actively robbing you of your power and ability to be present and causing you to hang on to the past. In this episode of the For Kick-ass Women Only podcast, Kathy takes a deep dive into this seemingly harmless word and makes the case for letting it go. If you’re ready to get fully present in your life then it’s time to being full present. Listen in to learn why you must take the words “should” and “should have” out of your vocabulary right now.   WHAT WILL YOU LEARN: How “should” and “should have” take you to an alternate reality and prevent you from being present and accountable in your current life. The wasted energy and brain power it takes to engage in hypothetical thinking. Why forgiveness is an important thing to offer yourself (and others) when moving away from “should have”. How framing a sentence around “should” sets you up for failure before you even know it. How taking “should” and “should have” out of your vocabulary can restore your personal power.   STANDOUT QUOTES: “Should is like this alternate reality that we half live in that actually doesn't exist.” – Kathy [8:22] “By living in that ‘should’ or ‘should have’ reality and not being fully present in our current reality, we are not fully committed, fully accountable, or fully present for what's going on in our lives every day.”- Kathy [9:47] “It doesn't matter how many times you “should”, doesn't matter how badly you make yourself feel about that - what you “should have” done and didn't do, it still doesn't change the reality of what is.” – Kathy [12:02] “(Should) needs to rest in peace so that you can bring yourself back to the present and make the present the best that it can possibly be.” – Kathy [16:18]   READY TO JUMP-START YOUR PIVOT?  Ladies, if you are feeling like time is passing by faster than ever; however, you still desire to create a life of more freedom, joy, adventure, money, and meaning.

How are you living your life today? And what type of life are you working toward? What it is, when you get up every day and go to work, or work at your business, that you are seeking to create? If you have a dream of a different life, but what you’re doing has not been working for you, then it’s time to seriously consider making a pivot. In this episode of the For Kick-ass Women Only podcast, Kathy is talking about not only what it means to pivot, but she also explains what it means to create an authentic, meaningful, and kick-ass life and why it is really the only worthwhile endeavor there is. Listen in to learn how to take command of your life today and begin your pivot to the life of your dreams.   WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: How thinking you have time is detrimental to you living the life you truly want to be living.

Why the less fun you allow yourself to have the harder it is to have fun.   STANDOUT QUOTES: “…Your authentic, meaningful, kick-ass life can look any way you want it to.”- Kathy [8:50] “…A pivot doesn't mean making a turn or making a complete change in direction. More often than not, it's realigning what you do on a daily basis and who you are so that what you are creating is more in alignment with the life that you wanna be living versus the life that you're already living right now.” - Kathy [9:50] “…Authentic is the baseline. It's about being able to know who you are or relearn who you are… or just reconnect with who you truly are so that all of the choices that you make in your life are in alignment with… the truth of who you are.” - Kathy [13:10] “…When you have a meaningful life, you are able to focus on those things that are important to you, that means something to you, and you are able to give your time, your energy, your focus, your money, whatever it is to those things.” - Kathy [15:10] “…A kick life get means that you get to have fun. You get to enjoy it, not just endure your life, but you get to enjoy it.” – Kathy [18:42]   READY TO JUMP-START YOUR PIVOT?  Ladies, if you are feeling like time is passing by faster than ever; however, you still desire to create a life of more freedom, joy, adventure, money, and meaning.
