Monday affirmation: My Inner Voice Is Kind To Me
A line from today's affirmation, "I choose gentle words and stick to the facts. I ask myself open-ended questions that help me view situations from a different perspective and clarify my purpose."
My Inner Voice Is Kind To Me
Too many times we are defeated by the negative self-talk in our heads. That small voice that tells us what we want to do is stupid, won't work, or we are not smart enough to make it happen.
Let's put an end to negative self-talk now!
Recite this affirmation each day this week, make it part of your morning or evening routine and answer the questions at the end. Answering those self-reflection questions will help you to implement and internalize these new words and replace that negative self voice in your head.
You can read the entire affirmation here.
One of the questions in today's affirmation is: What is one positive thing I want to tell myself each morning?
This year let's make your dreams come true!

I am starting a movement. I am lending my voice to women in midlife just like me, who feel that society, their families, and their co-workers are trying to keep them silent. In today's episode, I am sharing with you four ways to face your fears so that you can live the life you deserve. For many of us, aging has caused us to retreat safely into the background of our lives. We have become midlife wallflowers who still dream of accomplishing big things in our lives but are afraid that what we have to say will not matter to anyone except us.
That stops now! Being fearless is not about the absence of fear. Being courageous is facing the things in life that scare you, despite the sweaty palms and racing heartbeat. Being fearless is realizing that what you want is more important than any fear you have of achieving it. But being fearless does not need to involve life or death situations. Fearless is falling in love again after being brokenhearted. Fearless is leaving a successful career for an uncertain opportunity. Fearless is standing by someone who's disappointed you in the past. Fearless is falling and getting back up again (and again).
"I've been absolutely terrified every minute of my life—and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do." Georgia O'Keeffe
Learn how to
Own your fear. Psychologist Carl Jung said, "What you resist not only persists, but will grow in size." So, it goes with fear, as well; resisting fear expands it.
Reshape your fear. You are smart, and that can be a problem. Are you a habitual 'catastrophizer,' always assuming the worst will happen?
Take a risk. Playing it safe often feels like a low-risk proposition, but what if the opposite is true? What if playing it safe is a high-risk approach?
Build your courage muscle. If you have ever started a new exercise habit, you know that building muscle requires starting slow and working your way up
2020 is your year. Do not be a midlife wallflower. It is time to join the party. The good news is you have what it takes to break through your fears right inside of you.
Please share this episode with a family or friend who could use this information; there is nothing more powerful than women helping women.

What Are the Dangers of Being Skinny-Fat and Three Strategies to Get Healthier?
Hello my friends, welcome to Episode 25 of the Welcome to Your Life Podcast. WTYL is a podcast for midlife women who want to re-energize their wellness goals and learn how to create a work/life balance without losing their minds. I am your host Certified Health Coach Renee Reid, and I am on a mission to reduce the number of women who die each year from heart disease and diabetes.

Let me ask you a question, do you think that being skinny automatically means you’re healthier, or are you a thin person who thinks because of your size, you’re immune to heart disease, diabetes, and the plethora of medical conditions that threaten us each and every day.
Hey guys, so in today’s show, we are talking about what it means to be skinny fat, how dangerous is it for you, and how you can learn to protect yourself.
I found this topic really interesting because, as a health coach I encounter women in midlife who are so proud of the fact that they’ve never had a weight problem their whole lives. “I am already at my ideal weight,” they love to tell me.
I know that we live in a culture that bombards us with diet plans designed to help us lose weight and finally live the magical lives waiting on the other side. Because we have been brainwashed to think that skinnier, we are, the healthier we are- and that is simply not true.
Weight loss is daunting, especially in midlife. Because what wouldn’t we give to lose that peri-menopausal or menopausal belly. So many women between the ages of 40-59 look absolutely fabulous in their clothes and still have a high percentage of body fat compared to lean muscle, which leads to osteoporosis the weakening of the bones, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes
The medical term for being skinny fat is metabolically obese normal weight or MONW, it occurs when women who are normal weight or underweight, are inactive, have an imbalanced fat to muscle ratio, or who partake of a diet is high in fat and sugar.
Ladies, if you are looking for a safe space and a group of women to love, support you and give you a little kick in the pants when you need it, consider joining our Free Facebook Group, The Courageous Women’s Network, in this group you will have access to additional training, informative Q/A sessions, and a sisterhood like no other.

Grab your journal, On today’s show, I am giving you four strategies that you can use today, to move through your fears and get what you want. Fear will always be with you, once you understand that and use the proper coping strategies you can move through it and not stay stuck in it. These four strategies include: acknowledging your fear, saying your fear out loud, giving yourself a time limit to make your decisions, and asking for help. Your don't have to do them in order, but you do have to get started. Choose one and get started today!
Sometimes, we don’t move because we tell ourselves that we don’t have a choice. If you are a woman between 40-60 Midlife. You can get stuck in the way things are, you tell yourself that you don't want anyone to know your business but the truth is you are afraid to move. Once you realize that you have a choice. Then the option to move forward falls squarely on your shoulders. You have a choice, so will you stay where you are, or move!
Ultimately, our lives are a cumulation of the choices we make-whether you are afraid or not you have to live with the outcome. Giving up is not an option-someone is waiting for you to move in your purpose. Yours is not the only life you will save.

Patience is not the ability to wait, but how you act while you’re waiting. Joyce Meyer

She’s been married for 21 years to her wonderful husband. She is an administrative assistant for surgical oncology at the University of Cincinnati. She likes to do crafts, read, bake, and drink wine.
Andrea had a dream to write a book, it took her 19 years through working a full time job, raising two girls, and being a loving wife to get it done and published but she did it. Her story proves that dreams can come true with hard work, determination, and faith. In today’s episode, she tells us how she found the time to complete her dream. She gives us a hint on her upcoming project and tells us all how we have the power to add a little peace in the world.
There are so many of us waiting to fulfill a dream and some of us have been waiting so long that we have given up hope. But, Andrea gives a loving kick in the pants and tips to help us get it done.

You deserve to be happy. But, that cannot happen until you take your power back and forgiveness allows you to do just that. Forgiving someone doesn't mean that you have to like them, invite them for a coffee, or even speak to them ever again. Forgiveness is your way of telling them that you are ready to put the incident behind you and move on with you life. In this episode, I teach you how to create your own forgiveness ceremony. This ceremony can be as simple or elaborate as you like, the important thing as I've said before is that you feel safe and supported.
When I think of how something so simple could help women break free -I am so grateful to be able to offer this gift to you. As a coach, No matter how often I guide someone through this ceremony, I am just blown away watching women take their power back. Now this is not some magical thing that washes away all the anger and trauma you feel around the incident. But, it is a first step a beginning toward wholeness.
Don't forget to download your free journal this is my free gift to you, inside you will find space to help you organize your day, record your daily food intake, sleep, and exercise there is also a space to for you do some self-reflection so that you can identify the changes you need to make in order to live a happier and healthier life.
Let's stay in touch, you can email me at wtylwellness@gmail.com I answer every email.
Until tomorrow,
Wishing you Love and Peace

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2012, there were 2.7 million grandparents who had the primary responsibility for caring for their grandchildren who lived with them.
There is a crisis in this country and its not the children trying to get in through border. It is the children left behind when their natural parents are no longer able to care to them. This could be due to drug and alcohol use, poverty, or mental illness. What is the best solution for these children? Are you prepared to take care of children in your family if there parents are unable too? If you decide to take on this responsibility what support can you expect from the city or state child welfare organizations? what is kinship care and is better for the children than being placed in a foster home?
Today's guest answers that question and much more, our guest today is Lisa Stevens- Cutner. Lisa Stevens-Cutner has 31 years’ experience in Child Welfare at the Cuyahoga County Ohio Division of Children and Family Services (DCFS).

Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it” Tori Amos
Today is Relationship Monday , a heavy topic to be attacking at the beginning of the week, but I think you can handle it. We are doing a deep dive into Part 2 of our Can This Relationship Be Saved Series- Today we are talking about emotional baggage, and how it can ruin your life and your new relationships. Don’t think just romantic, think friendship, family, co-workers, church members, emotional baggage left unchecked can permeate every area of your life and leave you feeling empty and alone.
Breathe! I am going to give you three tips you can use to unpack and unload this burden.
Have you stopped speaking to your parents or siblings because of something they did to you?
I want you to know that you are worthy of being happy. You are worthy of having stable relationships in your life. You are worthy of being loved. You are worthy of having a great career and doing something every day that you love. But to do this, you must heal your mindset and change the way you interact with the world and the people in it. Acknowledgement is the first step towards healing and with healing comes forgiveness and acceptance.
Your homework for this week, sit down in a quiet area. Clear your head space, put away all your electronics. Take out that journal you purchased at the beginning of the year, :) or, just a piece of paper, think about your relationships and the things you would like to change. Write down the three steps: Acknowledge and release, forgiveness, learn from your mistakes-and write down the piece of emotional baggage you would like to release. Once you walk you way through those three steps, Answer the following questions.
1. Ask yourself, how could I have handled that situation differently?
2. What will I do to ensure that it doesn’t happen again?
3. Is there something I can do to salvage this relationship and make it whole?
4. How should I apologize?
5. Who will I become when I’m healed? Why is this so important to me?
Wishing you love and Peace,
Renee

"Joy is what happens when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things are” Marianne Williamson
How would you like to learn how to use your spiritual weapons to recover your joy and live your life in peace? The world can be scary and unfulfilling place, dealing with all the chaos that surrounds us can zap the joy right out of our lives. We spend so much time focusing on the problem that we forget we serve a God who has all the answers. It is time that we begin to trust the Lord, especially if we want to live the life we deserve. Proverbs 3:5 reads, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding". We don't have to suffer in silence or carry the full burden of our problems alone.
But, why is joy so important you might be asking yourself, why can’t I just mine my own business and let other people do the same? Because your lack of joy affects others and your ability to be a witness to God's love. Praying is your first line of defense against the enemy and against the troubles that rise up in your life. You were meant to live in joy and peace. Reclaiming your joy, today! Whether its of or own making or due to the enemies attack if you have made a habit of reaching out to God through prayer then you will win.
In this episode, I share with you how to use prayer strengthen your connection with God and how to create a string prayer when you need to re-energize your prayer life. There will come a time when you have to be your own prayer warrior, when you are in the thick of battle and cannot wait to get to church on Sunday to have the mothers pray for you. Building a relationship with God through prayer will diminish the time we spend worrying, and our own doing or due to the enemy’s attacks, we will commence to praying. Having established a relationship with God through our prayers this will be as natural as breathing.
Don't forget to subscribe- this is part one of the series and I don't want you to miss an episode.
Wish you Peace and Love,
Renee

“Open Your Arms to Change But Don’t Let Go Of Your Values” Unknown
Have you ever thought about your values? Those things that you hold to be true and important. Our values help to shape the way we see the world and what we are able to achieve. Many of us are living on a rote value system that stopped working years ago.
In this episode, I am asking you six questions to help you discover or rediscover the values that create your emotional, financial, physical, or spiritual foundation. We use our values every day to make decisions whether we realize it or not, and if we are not careful we may be using an outdated value system that no longer serves us.
Eliminating un-serving values will allow you to replace them with new values that will open the door to the endless possibilities that are available to you.
This simple test we are taking today is by no means the end of the line, this is just to wet your appetite and open the doors to introspective communication. Think of this as a chance to discover your purpose and to create your personal foundation on what matters to you and not someone else.
With Love and Peace,
Renee

Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it. Helen Keller
How does one make the decision to transition from one faith to another? How does that decision impact the way you live your life? How does it impact your relationships with family and friends, especially those who may not agree with your chosen path? In today’s episode I have the pleasure of interviewing my son Alex, who talks about his seven year journey into Buddhism. His decision to seek something different to end the suffering he felt and how his Buddhist training has given him the impetus to work with other faith leaders to make a difference in the world.
Sensei Alex Kakuyo is an author, activist, and Buddhist teacher in the Bright Dawn Center of Oneness Buddhism. He teaches a nonsectarian approach to the Dharma, which encourages students to seek enlightenment in everyday life. You can read more of his work by visiting his blog, The Same Old Zen, or following him on Twitter: @sameoldzen

Hello truth seekers, welcome to the Welcome To Your Life-Live The Life You Deserve Podcast 2.0 that's right I'm back. Let me ask you a question, have you ever wanted to start a new project but all the experts told you it would not work? Well that's what happened to me, so in today's episode I am sharing my journey of finding my own voice, living my own truth, and doing this thing my way.
My story may not new or unique, but I own it, it's mine. I am hoping that after listening to today's episode you will find the courage to pursue and conqueror your dreams. If you have a dream collecting dusk on a shelf, pick it up, dust it off, and make it happen. I will always be your loudest cheerleader.

On today's episode, I am asking the question can this relationship be saved? This is the first part of our four part life and relationships series. In this episode we tackle the relationship we have with ourselves. It is after all, the most important relationship we will form in our lifetime. Why? Because, it impacts every relationship that we will have. No matter what is going on inside of the relationships we form with family, friends, and co-workers, we will be the one constant in all those relationships,
Some of us treat relationships like revolving doors, as we search for someone to make us whole. That is an unfair responsibility to put on another person when we are responsible for our own happiness.
Answer the questions honestly, you don't have to share. But, they just might help you save the relationship with yourself. I am praying that they will put on the road to finding your honest truth and open the door the your healing. Enjoy!
Blessings and Peace
Renee

In our latest episode of The Diabetic Toolbox podcast, we delve into the power of calmness and resilience, crucial for managing diabetes and overall well-being. Here's a quick summary of what we discussed:
Affirmation: "My soul remains calm."
Quote for Today: "I fight for my health every day in ways that most people don't understand. I'm not lazy. I'm a warrior." – Unknown.
We explored how cultivating inner peace empowers us to face daily challenges gracefully. One effective way to achieve this is through deep belly breathing. Here's a quick guide to get you started:
1. Find a Comfortable Position: Sit or lie comfortably, ensuring your back is straight and your shoulders are relaxed.
2. Place Your Hands: Place one hand on your chest and the other on your belly.
3. Inhale Deeply: Take a slow, deep breath through your nose, allowing your belly to rise as you fill your lungs with air.
4. Exhale Slowly: Breathe through your mouth, letting your belly fall gently.
5. Repeat: Continue this pattern for 5-10 minutes, focusing on the rise and fall of your belly with each breath.
Incorporating this simple practice into your daily routine can help you maintain a sense of calm and strengthen your resilience.
Take Action Today:
