Becca Ribbing is the author of The Clarity Journal and has been a coach for over a decade. She's on a mission to help people break out of the cycles of uncertainty and struggle that hold them back. She helps women going back and forth with the big, seemingly endless question of what to do next—so they can stop going around in circles and finally figure out what they truly want and create the clarity and momentum they crave. In today's episode we're talking about how to be more honest with yourself. Here are some of the questions that Becca helps answer for us! Why is it that sometimes it feels like self-care should make us happier but really it’s just a band aid because it’s not getting at why we feel depleted in the first place? What may be some of the reasons why we feel depleted? What are some of the “signs” that we’re not aligning with ways that self-care can actually help serve us? What are more effective ways that we can self-care? Can you describe for us what that looks like in a way that gives us energy instead of taking it away? How can we recognize when what we’re doing isn’t working anymore? What does it mean to “be more honest with yourself”? What does “being more honest with yourself” look like? How can we start facing things head on? If you're ready to be honest with yourself, check out Becca's book "The Clarity Journal" on Amazon.

It was such an honor and privilege to speak directly with her...the author! Today's episode, we chat about:  1. Shannon's inspiration to write “Adventures For Your Soul” 2. What was holding her back before writing this book 3. Which chapter required the most vulnerability to write about & why 4. Which habit transformation impacted Shannon's life the most & why 5. Which chapter was her favorite to write & why Some of my favorite quotes:  “We often settle because we think it is the best we can get, a behavior that is rooted in fear of the unknown or in feeling unworthy” “One of the most common habits we fall into that can hinder our happiness is overthinking things and failing to act. This shows up in the form of over analyzing, being extremely critical, or not trusting our own feelings” “If we didn’t feel embarrassment and shame, other people’s criticism of us or our own inner critic would have no power over us. Many of us stay stuck in self-shame, guilt, and embarrassment because we are worried about what other people will think” “Emotions affect you because they are rooted in some past experience and will try to rule your choices by reminding you of the consequences you suffered, the mistakes and failures of your past. When we listen to our emotions, we stay stuck in our past” “I was always blaming myself because I didn't love myself...I was always consumed with guilt and focused on trying to make things “right”...I did everything I could to please them, in the process losing more of myself every day. Blame is a cousin of fear. Fear keeps us from falling in love with our life…” You can grab your copy of "Adventures For Your Soul" here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/317331/adventures-for-your-soul-by-shannon-kaiser/ Check out her other books, too! https://www.playwiththeworld.com/books/ Please join me in supporting Shannon by checking out her website: playwiththeworld.com and following her on social media: Twitter: https://twitter.com/shannonlkaiser Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ShannonKaiserWrites/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shannonkaiserwrites/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/PLAYWITHTHEWORLD --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/foundfamily/support

She is originally from California but has been an expat for 14 years. Through her Higher Self Letter Writing technique and customized guided visualizations and affirmations, Laurie shows you how you are your first home.  May is mental health awareness month. As many of us either know or have known a narcissist, this is a very important topic that I can't wait to share with you all! Today, Laurie and I dive deeper into understanding narcissistic personalities. But you might be asking, what is a narcissist?  You will learn: Some of the signs of narcissists What it's like living with a narcissistic parent, family member, or partner The best ways to communicate with a narcissist How we can cope and show ourselves love Initially, narcissistic abuse starts with 'small jab' comments. Over time, they grow and behavior changes. You might experience passive aggressiveness and/or the silent treatment. Narcissists are like mind ninjas! As Laurie shares, "they will start to diminish your self-esteem...and you don't really feel it straight away." You might think, as Laurie also shared, "what's wrong with me...?"  Mental abuse is still abuse. Please remember that your emotions and thoughts are valid and that there is NOTHING wrong with you. Narcissists prey on those who are empathetic and use it against them.

How many hours a day do you spend future tripping? How much energy do you consume every day saying mean things to yourself? Stop searching for external things, soul sister.

I'm ready to meet you and I'm ready to become besties again." 1. Reflect on things that you're grateful for 2. Identify which human need you're trying to satisfy 3.

What you'll learn today: What does it mean to be emotionally aware How you can increase your emotional intelligence Self-awareness practices that can help you feel less anxious Transformational Quotes: "...emotional self awareness... [is] the degree to which you're in touch with your feelings and your emotions and are able to distinguish one emotion from another and understand why that emotion has resulted..." "...I tend to subscribe to the thinking that emotions are really a very initial response to our triggers. And I'm not talking about trauma triggers I'm talking about any trigger which is really just any response to anything...And then there's a sort of a feedback loop that last for about six seconds..." "... just get to being very present with yourself so that you can become aware of what it is that you're feeling and to recognize that you are not your feelings." "...dividing our emotional intelligence into four basic areas that is (1) self awareness, (2) self management, (3) social awareness and (4) social management. So really it's about becoming really aware of who we are and how we are in the world. How we feel inside, how we feel about ourselves [and] what we're doing about that, and then how we manage ourselves...it also looks at...what's going on outside of us in our environment." "...awareness helps us in the present moment, and that awareness is the best guide for what we can do in that moment and every moment forward." [during COVID-19] having this emotional awareness will strengthen our ability to not only communicate what our needs are...but also... to communicate this to others [in our households]..." [How can we manage our emotions] "...might be a little bit more nuance than managing emotions. I think it [is] a little bit more about managing what we do about our emotions because the emotions need to be allowed to be felt..." "Number one most important is that we have to allow ourselves the safe space to feel what we feel..."
