Janet M. Taylor is the founder of Totally Organized LLC.  In April 2018, Janet appeared on the Rachael Ray Show, where she was crowned the Clutter Free Queen. Janet has also appeared on HGTV’s Mission Organization.  She has also been a featured speaker for IKEA and the Philadelphia Home Show. In 2020, Janet’s organized home was featured in Apartment Therapy. In our recent conversation, we delved into the world of organization, discussing everything from personal habits to our emotional attachment to objects.From Layoff to Launching a BusinessJanet's journey into the world of organization began when she was laid off from a job she loved. Rather than seeing this as a setback, she used it as an opportunity to launch her own business, Totally Organized LLC. Her passion for organization stems from her childhood experiences and witnessing the impact of disorganization on people's lives.The Struggle with OrganizationI can personally relate to Janet's passion for organization. Like many, I've had my own struggles with staying organized. I've found that incorporating small habits into my daily routine has been instrumental in maintaining a sense of order. However, it's not always easy. I remember feeling embarrassed when a friend visited and saw the state of my home. Janet reassured me that people are often not as judgmental as we think and that relationships are more important than the state of our homes.Other major things we discussed include: Overcoming the Shame of DisorganizationPractical Solutions to Organizational ChallengesThe Importance of Organizing Belongings and TimeEmotional Attachment to ObjectsTaking Small Steps Towards OrganizationJanet emphasized the importance of taking small steps towards organization, such as tackling a junk drawer or a corner of a room. She encourages listeners to donate, recycle, or let go of items that no longer serve them, knowing that it's a process and not an overnight transformation.In conclusion, my conversation with Janet M. Taylor deeply delved into the organization world. It was a reminder that organization is not just about decluttering our spaces but also about understanding our habits, managing our time, and dealing with our emotional attachments to objects. It's a journey, not a destination, and every small step counts.Find Janet Here:  https://janetmtaylor.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/janetmtaylor1/ https://www.instagram.com/janettheorganizer/ This is an invitation to join a supportive community of purpose-driven entrepreneurs who are creating an impact in the world.A mastermind is a community of peers who exchange ideas, provide support, and offer sound advice for running a successful business.Join the Confident YOU Mastermind now at https://goconfidentlyservices.myflodesk.com/confidentyoumastermindSupport the showThank you for listening to our podcast.

I recently welcomed Tilly Storm, a somatic safe sex and intimacy coach, onto the show. Tilly is also the host of the Multi-Orgasmic Millionaire podcast, which has gained recognition and a devoted following of over 330,000 listeners. She is known for her unique blend of wisdom, southern sass, and unapologetic authenticity.A Journey Towards Sexual EmpowermentTilly didn't grow up thinking she would become a sex coach. Raised in a Southern Baptist household, there was no talk about pleasure, relationships, or conscious communication. However, her curiosity led her to explore her sexuality at the age of 27, leading her to discover the Taoist practice called the Jade Egg.Like Tilly, I also grew up in a religious environment that instilled guilt and shame around sex. It's a regret that many of us share, but it's also a catalyst for change and growth.Overcoming Doubts and Pursuing PassionTilly's journey to becoming a sex and relationship coach wasn't without doubts. She had to consider the financial implications. However, she knew deep down that this was her calling and couldn't ignore it.I admire Tilly's courage in deciding to follow her heart and help others in the process. It's a common struggle to second-guess oneself and care too much about what others think. But it's crucial not to let external opinions keep you from pursuing your true passion.From City Planner to Sex CoachBefore becoming a coach, Tilly worked as a city planner but was fired for breastfeeding her child. This experience solidified her determination to show her kids that it's possible to do what you love and make a good living from it. Her family, who always saw her as the black sheep, accepted her unique path without question.Reclaiming Sexuality and Overcoming ChallengesTilly offers a diverse range of programs aimed at helping women reclaim their sexuality and overcome various challenges. Many of her clients seek her help due to a lack of sexual desire or struggles in their relationships and sex lives.The Importance of Embodiment and Personal PracticeTilly's training in sex, love, and relationships required her to do extensive self-training before working with clients—this involved breathwork, shadow work, and creating an intentional self-pleasure practice.Many people feel uncomfortable when they start working with Tilly due to shame and guilt surrounding self-pleasure. However, Tilly emphasizes the importance of knowing what pleases you and how it can enhance your experiences with a partner.Exploring Different Types of OrgasmsTilly introduces the concept of eight different types of orgasms.Navigating Aging and MenopauseTilly shares her excitement about getting older and the opportunities it brings, such as being able to focus on herThis is an invitation to join a supportive community of purpose-driven entrepreneurs who are creating an impact in the world.A mastermind is a community of peers who exchange ideas, provide support, and offer sound advice for running a successful business.Join the Confident YOU Mastermind now at https://goconfidentlyservices.myflodesk.com/confidentyoumastermindSupport the showThank you for listening to our podcast.

It's a powerful tool that can be applied to personal goals, reminding us that every step counts.Empowering Women at The VillageI recently had the privilege of visiting The Village, an organization that provides financial literacy and support to women and families in need. I was moved by a story of how The Village helped a woman secure a deposit and furnishings for her home. I also had the opportunity to participate in the Empowered Women event, a partnership between Women United and The Village. We discussed relationship building, motherhood, and budgeting tips, all crucial aspects of empowering women.A Dose of Positivity and the Kaizen StoryI had an enlightening interview with Donna Malt from A Dose of Positivity.

In a recent episode of my podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Brenda Adelman, an award-winning actor, forgiveness coach, and a beacon of resilience. Brenda's journey from personal tragedy to forgiveness and healing is nothing short of inspiring. In this blog post, I'll share some of the key insights from our conversation.Meeting Brenda AdelmanBrenda Adelman is not just an accomplished actor but also a recipient of the Hero of Forgiveness award. Her one-woman show, "My Brooklyn Hamlet," is a testament to her life story of forgiving the unforgivable. Beyond her acting career, Brenda is a teacher and mentor for mission-driven performers and small business owners, helping them create successful TEDx-style talks and one-person shows.I first met Brenda at her summit, where she was a gracious host. Her content led to incredible transformations for the participants, a testament to her ability to inspire and guide others.Brenda's Origin StoryBrenda's life took a tragic turn when her father killed her mother and married her aunt. This defining moment could have led her to withdraw, but instead, she chose to move forward with forgiveness and healing. Her acting background helped her express herself and cope with the tragedy, leading her to create her one-woman show and eventually pursue a master's degree in spiritual psychology.The Importance of Healthy BoundariesDuring our conversation, Brenda emphasized the importance of setting healthy boundaries. She suggested using a scale of 1 to 5 to gauge one's feelings towards someone, with 1 being intense hatred and 5 being neutrality or even sending positive energy to that person. She also recommended tools like free-form writing and expressing anger in a safe and healthy way, such as through therapy or primal scream workshops.Brenda shared an example of setting a healthy boundary with an abusive family member during the holidays. Instead of avoiding the family gathering, she suggested not staying in the same home as the abusive sibling or setting a time limit for the visit if negative behavior arises. This way, one can still show love and support for their mother while protecting their own well-being.The Power of ForgivenessBrenda's journey of forgiveness was initially painful but ultimately healing. She explained that expressing anger is crucial for forgiveness to occur. I shared my experience setting boundaries with my family and emphasized the importance of forgiveness in the process.http://facebook.com/brendaadelmanhttps://facebook/com/groups/soulstorytribe This is an invitation to join a supportive community of purpose-driven entrepreneurs who are creating an impact in the world.A mastermind is a community of peers who exchange ideas, provide support, and offer sound advice for running a successful business.Join the Confident YOU Mastermind now at https://goconfidentlyservices.myflodesk.com/confidentyoumastermindSupport the showThank you for listening to our podcast.

I'm thrilled to share with you the latest episode of our podcast, where we had the pleasure of hosting Tobie Spears, the founder and director of the nonprofit Be Humanitarian. Their mission:  To live a life full of meaningful work, building cherished connections, healing sorrows, sprinkling smiles, and sharing hope. Tobie's passion for making a difference is truly inspiring, and her story resonated deeply with me, given my personal connections to Latin America.Here are some key takeaways from our conversation:The Birth of Be Humanitarian: Tobie's journey to Guatemala began with a sense of adventure and a desire to experience something new. She found a community in need and a calling to make a difference. Her organization now provides meals, educational support, and income opportunities to a remote Guatemalan community.The Impact: Be Humanitarian started small, but its impact has been profound. From providing breakfast three days a week to needy children, they now serve thousands of monthly meals. During the pandemic, they even provided dinner boxes, demonstrating their commitment to meeting basic needs.Empowerment and Collaboration: Tobie's vision goes beyond charity. She aims to empower the local people to create a sustainable system for themselves. The organization prioritizes collaboration and involvement from the community, ensuring that the parents and children in their program have a say in how things are done.The Challenges: Guatemala is one of the most malnourished countries in the world, with a stark divide between the wealthy and the impoverished. Tobie and I discussed the financial challenges families face and the difficult choices they have to make between basic needs like food and education.Service Vacations: Be Humanitarian offers unique adventures and service vacations. These trips are humanitarian-based and include activities like fair trade education and hands-on service in the community. It's a different kind of vacation that leaves a lasting impact on both the participants and the community.Tobie's story is a testament to the power of compassion and the difference one person can make. I hope you'll join me in supporting Be Humanitarian's mission and consider tuning in to our podcast to hear more about Tobie's incredible journey.Remember, even a small contribution can make a big difference. As Tobie shared, just $37 a month can provide a child with meals and educational support in Guatemala. That's less than the cost of a few fast-food meals!If you want to connect with Be Humaniatian, Please visit their website: https://behumanitarian.org/This is an invitation to join a supportive community of purpose-driven entrepreneurs who are creating an impact in the world.A mastermind is a community of peers who exchange ideas, provide support, and offer sound advice for running a successful business.Join the Confident YOU Mastermind now at https://goconfidentlyservices.myflodesk.com/confidentyoumastermindSupport the showThank you for listening to our podcast.

As a podcast host, I can engage in enlightening conversations with various experts. Recently, I had the pleasure of interviewing Leah Morrison, a trauma educator, coach, and healer. Our conversation was insightful and deeply personal as we delved into the topic of trauma, its impact on individuals and communities, and the journey toward healing.Lea Morrison is a remarkable individual who has dedicated her life to bridging the gap between therapists and the coaching and wellness industry. Her journey towards reclaiming her well-being after childhood trauma led her to her current career. As we began our conversation, I couldn't help but acknowledge the crisis happening in Leah's community due to a recent wildfire, the McDougall wildfire, which has displaced many people in Kelowna, British Columbia.Natural disasters, like the wildfire in Lea's community or the recent hurricane in California, can cause collective trauma. Lea explained that trauma encompasses big and small events, often called "big T" and "small T" traumas. She opened up about her personal experience with trauma and its impact on her mental health, leading to feelings of hopelessness and deep shame.I believe it's crucial to normalize these feelings and spread awareness about available resources and support for those struggling with mental health issues. Trauma can affect the brain's ability to function optimally, leading to difficulties in problem-solving and making sense of things. It's like using dial-up internet instead of high-speed internet. The stigma and self-shame that often accompany these struggles further hinder one's ability to think clearly and seek help.Lea shared her vision for the future, which includes launching a trauma-aware practitioner certification program.

As the host of the podcast "Casa de Confidence," I have the privilege of introducing you to some truly remarkable individuals. I am thrilled to share my conversation with Madelaine Weis, a Harvard-trained licensed psychotherapist, mindset expert, and board-certified executive career life coach. Madelaine's impressive credentials extend beyond her academic achievements, as she is also a best-selling author and has held prestigious positions at Harvard Medical School.A Lifelong LearnerMadelaine's journey is one of constant learning and growth. She describes herself as a "learning junkie," always eager to expand her knowledge and overcome challenges. This hunger for learning is a coping strategy for her and a fun way to broaden her horizons.I found myself resonating with Madelaine's passion for learning. However, our conversation also emphasized the importance of distinguishing between moving toward something positive and avoiding something that must be addressed. We discussed how unresolved issues and patterns could repeat if not properly addressed, a lesson that is crucial for personal growth.For those interested in connecting with Madelaine, she provides her website and email for listeners to reach out. She also offers a free strategy session, encouraging listeners to take action.In conclusion, my conversation with Madelaine Weiss was a learning, growth, and success journey.

On this episode of the show, I welcomed an extraordinary guest, Carrie Klewin Lawrence, to the show. Carrie is a woman of many talents - a stage director, acting coach, professor, personal branding coach, and author. She's also a mother of three, and her journey is as diverse as her skills. Our conversation delved into her experiences, her personal growth, and how her unique path has shaped her career.A Journey of Many PathsCarrie's journey is far from linear, a common trait among entrepreneurs and artists. Her husband's 22-year military career led to numerous domestic and international relocations. Despite the challenges, Carrie found fulfillment in her work and her role as a mother. She began her career as a stage director in college, a path initially seen as a hobby rather than a viable career. She had to overcome this perception, challenging the traditional messaging she received about pursuing a "real job."The Influence of Place and DiversityCarrie's personal and professional growth has been significantly influenced by the various places she has lived, including New York City and Washington, DC. We discussed the importance of diversity and connecting with people from different cultures and backgrounds. We also discussed the challenges of being away from a support system and its impact on mental health.Carrie's book, "Origin Story," has been released, and she will continue her coaching work. I encourage everyone to support Carrie by connecting with her. Her journey is a testament to the power of embracing one's unique path and the potential for personal growth and fulfillment that lies within us all.https://linktr.ee/carrieklewinDon't forget the Purposeful You Summit 2023 is coming up.
