#68 - Get Paid To Be Yourself With Mia LaMotte (00:22:25)
This week I have image consultant, transformation coach, and personal brand strategist Mia LaMotte on the podcast to geek out about branding and her company Brand Disruptors. For years, Mia has been giving people permission to be themselves instead of trying to fit into someone else's box. And now, she's teaching us how to express ourselves authentically online and in real life. In this episode, you will hear: The importance of not changing yourself for the sake of having an "appropriate" or "professional" brand How your perception of yourself directly influences what other people think of you How to break out of the proper lady, good girl box that so many women are taught to fit into That there's no wrong way to represent your brand when you're true to yourself And her top tip for standing out amongst the crowd and attracting the right people to your message Coaching Questions & Thoughts: What particular boxes have you been trying to fit into? What labels have you been taught to wear that don't exactly align with who you are? Next time you're thinking about showing up in a certain way, ask yourself: is this something I like or am I doing it because it's something that would be less controversial? Who are your two archetypal people who — when combined — best describe who you are and what you bring to the table? For example, I like to describe myself as Whitney Cummings meets Tony Robbins. How much permission are you giving yourself to just be yourself? In what ways are you not showing up authentically?

#65 - The Plight Of The Creative Type (00:10:52)

What is one irrational dream that you can chase to make 2021 a hinge year to remember?

So you come back and pay for more things." - Melissa Machat "There are a lot of people who are internally suffering and struggling and it's not necessary. They don't have to be in that dark place." - Melissa Machat "When something would happen, I would process it with a distorted filter, which then created my reality." - Melissa Machat "If you say you're going to do something and you don't do it.

#58 - KUWTK & Standing Up To Bullies (00:13:15)

Do you see exercise as a form of punishment or self-care? Describe your current work and home environment. Are there any stressful or toxic situations that could be impacting your health?

In this episode, you will hear: How having no set rules for conflict can lead to messy, triggering situations (and how boundaries prevent fights from getting gnarly) What to do when someone crosses a boundary you've set in place How to honor the other person and yourself while you're working out a disagreement Why setting boundaries and enforcing boundaries are two totally different things The role a neutral third party can play in conflict resolution (and when to use one) Coaching Questions & Thoughts: Have you ever set any conflict boundaries? If so, did you enforce them? Is there a conflict boundary you often have trouble enforcing? Why? When your conflicts go south, what happens? Do things get mean? Do you shut down? Get specific. What is one or two conflict boundaries you'd like to set for future conflicts? What's important to you when it comes to fighting fair? Think about a recent conflict you had. How could the boundary you've chosen to set help resolve that situation? Quotes: "We often have no rulebooks to subscribe to that help us manage those conflicts in a way that honors the other person and yourself while you're working out a disagreement." - Shereen Thor "Boundaries are nothing if they are not enforced." - Shereen Thor "We got pain points from the past, and when they get pushed, we can pop off." - Shereen Thor Resources: Stop keeping up with the Jones' and learn all the science-based tips I learned from Yale on what actually makes us happy!

#53 - What To Do When Someone Pisses You Off (00:17:14)
People have a funny way of getting under our skin. While it can be momentarily cathartic to send that angry text or blow up on the spot, reactive actions get us nowhere — and they can even prevent us from some major opportunities. In this episode, I'll teach you the two types of triggers we experience and how to use them to improve your life. In this episode, you will hear: The two types of triggers we face (and what they really mean) How triggers are a body response that signals us to what still needs healing so we can self-actualize Why the way we handle triggers can be major opportunities for inner and outer growth How codependents often need their boundaries pushed to the absolute limit before they realize something's wrong My personal experience dealing with triggers as a codependent The different ways to handle each type of trigger to get the most out of it Coaching Questions & Thoughts: When was the last time you felt a trauma trigger? How did you handle it? What is one way you can use a known trauma trigger of yours for personal growth? Where can you get support for healing when facing a trigger that keeps coming up? When was the last time you experienced a righteous indignation trigger? How did you react? What area of your life do you think that trigger was signaling to you to change? What's one way you can use that experience for outer growth? Quotes: "When the punishment doesn't fit the crime, you know you have baggage." - Shereen Thor "The trauma response trigger is really an opportunity for inner work." - Shereen Thor "The trigger that is more of the righteous indignation response is actually an opportunity for outer work." - Shereen Thor "I wouldn't even notice that I was being disrespected because I was so tuned in to what somebody else needed." - Shereen Thor "We can often have these relationships with amazing humans that trigger us. And it's not necessarily a bad thing." - Shereen Thor "Triggers are an opportunity for growth." - Shereen Thor Resources:Stop keeping up with the Jones' and learn all the science-based tips I learned from Yale on what actually makes us happy!

#52 - The #1 Mistake Women Make in the Dating Game (00:09:16)
In relationships, it's common for one partner (usually the woman) to take on the role of the mother. We wash dishes, do laundry, and cook dinner in an effort to serve and attract a partner. In this episode, I'm dissecting how mothering is actually masculine energy, and how it repels your partner and keeps you from the relationship you really want. In this episode, you'll hear: What masculine (yang) and feminine (yin) energy looks like, specifically in dating, love, and relationships The key principles you need to follow to find success in love How mothering your partner pushes away really good masculine humans (especially in the initial stages of dating) Why learning to receive will completely change your love life The resources and books that taught me how to shift my natural masculine energy How being feminine will attract masculine partners Coaching Questions & Thoughts: Do you naturally exhibit masculine or feminine energy? In what ways does that typically show up in your relationships? In both your current and past relationships, in what ways have you mothered your partner? What was the result? Can you think of a time where you embodied more feminine energy in a relationship? If so, what was the result? What's one way you can start to exhibit more feminine energy? What's one masculine behavior you can let go of starting today? Quotes: "Masculine is yang energy. It knows it needs to give, protect, and cherish." - Shereen Thor "Yin energy is supposed to be more focused on the self." - Shereen Thor "Mothering is masculine." - Shereen Thor "If you mother a masculine person, you will repel them." - Shereen Thor "Masculine and feminine energy is kind of like magnets; you need positive and negative ions to have that connection." - Shereen Thor "Be feminine so you can attract the masculine." - Shereen Thor Resources: Download the free happiness cheat sheet at: www.awakentherebel.com - stop keeping up with the Jones' and learn all the science-based tips I learned from Yale on what actually makes us happy. ❤️

When you're in the process of expanding and growing as a stellar human being trying to live out their purpose, you're inevitably going to ruffle a few feathers. I'm a big believer that conflict is change just trying to come through. So Instead of rattling off an angry text message or shrinking down to make the other person feel better, listen to this episode to learn my five steps to productive conflict resolution. In this episode, you'll hear: What it means when you trigger someone and why it's so confusing when you do What you should (and shouldn't) do when someone's made up an inaccurate story about you inside their head How to turn a triggering moment into a moment of healing What co-dependent people need to look out for specifically when it comes to conflict resolution Why you should seek to understand during conflict, but not assume full responsibility for it My 5-Step Productive Conflict Resolution Process (including the ONE step almost everyone forgets to do) How avoiding conflict will keep you from experiencing peace, happiness, and joy And my favorite style of relationship therapy that I've used to heal many conflicts in my life Coaching Questions & Thoughts:Is there anyone in your life right now who might be triggered by you changing? If so, how is that conflict showing up, and what could it be a call to heal? In this conflict (or a past, recent conflict), did you allow yourself to speak authentically about how you were affected? If you didn't, how would you now? Have you ever experienced what it was like to "make it right" after a conflict was resolved? If so, what did that look like? What are some ways you could close the loop on a current or recent conflict? Quotes: "When somebody's triggered, there's not much reasoning to it." - Shereen Thor "When you've triggered someone, it's likely triggering their past trauma. So they're seeing you through the lens of their past trauma." - Shereen Thor "It's always a good idea in conflict to seek to understand and to seek to listen." - Shereen Thor "If you do it right, triggers can be really beautiful because you can trigger healing." - Shereen Thor "When you cut yourself off from sad, you also cut yourself off from glad. They're two sides of the same coin." - Shereen Thor "Things are not black and white. Things are not right and wrong. Things are more gray than we'd like to admit when you're navigating through conflicts." - Shereen Thor Resources: Download the free happiness cheat sheet at: www.awakentherebel.com - stop keeping up with the Jones' and learn all the science-based tips I learned from Yale on what actually makes us happy. ❤️

#46 – Hey Queen, What if You Were KING OF YOUR LIFE? (00:06:51)
Hey Rebels! The $h#t is about to get real. You know you are living your life's most true purpose when you are running hard after the things that keep you up at night. So here I am, writing the very book that in its unwritten form haunted me late at night to write it, called "Revolutionary Woman" and a thought came to mind about you, and us, as women, choosing to live life as a KING. (pause) Wait what?! In ancient Egypt, believe it or not, women had EQUAL RIGHTS and far more rights than even modern day women today. There were many times in history where a woman, yes a WOMAN operated as a Pharaoh, y'all. Let me say it one more time, a motha f*ckin' PHARAOH. Does this blow your mind? I'm 100% Egyptian, raised in America and I'm picking my jaw up off the floor. Who would I be today, if this was taught to me in school? I can tell you I would have spent my 20's completely empowered, building pyramids for my kingdom, instead of asking for the worlds permission at every step. WTF. It made me wonder how differently we would approach life if we did it with the mindset of being a Pharaoh. A modernized female King with permission to rule our own vision, hopes and dreams for our kingdom. We would have kingdoms, that's for sure. There is enough sunlight for all the Pharaohs to bloom, ladies. In this episode you will hear: History about the role of women in different cultures/societies. How the oppression of women have caused us to lose our power and voice. When to act as King in your life and what areas of life call for it. Coaching Questions & Thoughts: What are ways you give up your rightful power in everyday life or in your career? When was a moment in life where you felt powerful, completely yourself, and feeling like a King? How can you step into the attitude of a King? If you could do anything without hesitation what would it be? Fun Quotes from the Show: "I am a woman's empowerment crackhead. So, what I am trying to do is make sure you are in command in areas of your life." "I don't need to be this [a king] in every area of my life, however when I am coaching a woman, it's so important to start here because we are so very much socialized to be second in command." "There is this inference of being second in command to the king – there's so many things about being a Queen, while lovely, that still keeps you second in command in your world." "We have been oppressed terribly and there's so much systemic disempowerment towards women. In an effort to bust that up, and buck the system, I am wanting to invite women to really think about what their lives would be like if they were acting like a King."
