No guilt allowed.<br /><br />🌟 A Simple Nightly Habit: A quick journaling practice to evaluate what worked, what didn’t, and how to move forward.<br /><br />Success Without Sacrifice is possible when you stop hustling and start strategizing.<br /><br />👋 Hi!

In this episode, I break down how to channel ambition, recover from failure, and set the healthy boundaries necessary for sustainable success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whether you are looking for burnout prevention or trying to figure out how to navigate work-life balance while chasing big goals, the strategies used by top coaches and athletes, like the next play mindset, are exactly what you need.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this episode, we cover:&lt;br /&gt;🌟 The Championship Mindset: How to define ambition and move from wanting to preparing to win. Let&apos;s talk IU Football, Fernando Mendoza and Swimming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;🌟 Resilience and Failure: Why failure is feedback and how to use the &quot;Be a Goldfish&quot; method (shoutout to Ted Lasso) to stop overthinking mistakes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;🌟 Strategic Boundaries: How to say no and protect your energy to avoid burnout. No guilt allowed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;🌟 A Simple Nightly Habit: A quick journaling practice to evaluate what worked, what didn’t, and how to move forward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Success Without Sacrifice is possible when you stop hustling and start strategizing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;👋 Hi!

Focus on your emotional wellness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. &lt;b&gt;Find Common Ground&lt;/b&gt;: Shift your focus from stating your view to seeking theirs. Use active listening skills and ask questions to find shared values.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. &lt;b&gt;Acknowledge Their Experience:&lt;/b&gt; Validate that they operate based on their unique life experiences. (This is an essential communication skill for having difficult conversations and building resilience.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ready to stop &lt;b&gt;overthinking&lt;/b&gt; and master &lt;b&gt;effective communication techniques&lt;/b&gt;? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🌟 If you want to go deeper and learn how to set &lt;b&gt;healthy boundaries&lt;/b&gt; that stick, check out my &lt;b&gt;Calm Communicator Guide&lt;/b&gt;.

I’m Megan DeVito, and in this episode, we’ll uncover the remarkable science of neuroplasticity and how it can help you feel calmer and more in control of your life. You’ll learn how your brain, much like muscles in the gym, can be trained to form new neurons and synapses, offering a powerful tool for overcoming anxiety.<br /><br />We’ll explore how habitual thoughts and behaviors carve lasting neural pathways in our brains, akin to sledding down the same hill over and over. By intentionally redirecting our thoughts and actions—whether it’s picking up a new hobby, shifting our focus from negative to positive, or even overcoming sensory loss—we can create new, beneficial pathways. I’ll share practical strategies to train your brain to respond differently to anxiety, including the importance of handwritten notes to reinforce positive thinking.<br /><br />Finally, we’ll tackle the common pitfalls of anxiety, such as catastrophizing and all-or-nothing thinking, and how these habits keep us trapped in a cycle of stress. Drawing inspiration from Jen Sincero’s book "You Are a Badass," we’ll discuss how to shift your mental focus towards positive outcomes without falling into the trap of toxic positivity.

Thuli&apos;s insights will leave you feeling inspired, empowered, and maybe even ready to pick up a paintbrush!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/thuliwolf/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Find Thuli on Instagram&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or at &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thuliwolf.com/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;www.thuliwolf.com&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2040149/open_sms&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Send us a text&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;Thanks for listening! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You can help others find the help and encouragement they need when you leave a &lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review wherever you listen. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.linkedin.com/in/megandevito/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Connect with me on LinkedIn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.megandevito.com&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Join me for a Boundaries and Balance Audit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You can feel calmer, clearer, and more confident in just 5 days with my audio course, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.megandevito.com/home-2/lessoverwhelm-morelife&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Less Overwhelm - More Life&lt;/a&gt;!

Cathy shares her personal journey of finding an &quot;unshakable calm&quot; through yoga and breathwork, especially during stressful life transitions, including a marriage dissolving and her children growing up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You&apos;ll learn how Cathy&apos;s Ayurvedic approach offers individualized practices for managing anxiety, focusing on gentle, slow-paced movements and mindful breathing. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Practice  her &quot;60-second stress slayer&quot; technique, using extended exhales to cue safety to your nervous system. Cathy also introduces the deeply relaxing practice of Yoga Nidra, equivalent to hours of sleep for mind and body restoration.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This episode discusses the power of connecting mind, body, and breath to release emotional and physical &quot;gunk&quot;. If you&apos;re looking for simple, actionable tools to calm your nervous system and thrive instead of just survive, this conversation is for you. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Connect with Cathy Eades:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Set up a free 30-minute&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;Anxiety Relief Trial Session with Cathy&lt;/em&gt;:  &lt;a href=&quot;https://calendly.com/crobertseads/30min&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;https://calendly.com/crobertseads/30min&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Website&lt;/em&gt;: &lt;a href=&quot;https://findblissyoga.com/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;https://FindBlissYoga.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;LinkedIn&lt;/em&gt;: &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathyreads/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathyreads/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;YouTube&lt;/em&gt;: &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/@blissyogawithcathy1253&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/@blissyogawithcathy1253&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;IG&lt;/em&gt;: @findblissyoga&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2040149/open_sms&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Send us a text&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;Thanks for listening! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You can help others find the help and encouragement they need when you leave a &lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review wherever you listen. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.linkedin.com/in/megandevito/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Connect with me on LinkedIn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.megandevito.com&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Join me for a Boundaries and Balance Audit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You can feel calmer, clearer, and more confident in just 5 days with my audio course, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.megandevito.com/home-2/lessoverwhelm-morelife&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Less Overwhelm - More Life&lt;/a&gt;!

She&apos;s been in the trenches, dealing with the same struggles many parents face: the battle over phones at dinner, the impact of social media on self-esteem, and the challenge of maintaining real conversations in an increasingly virtual world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Through her engaging presentations and practical tools, Kathy helps moms feel less alone and more equipped to raise confident, emotionally healthy kids who can thrive in our tech-driven society.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Contact Information &amp;amp; Links:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Email:&lt;/b&gt; Kathy@Converlation.com&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;LinkedIn:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.linkedin.com/in/Kathy-Van-Benthuysen/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Kathy Van Benthuysen&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Website:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.converlation.com/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Converlation.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Facebook:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.facebook.com/Converlation/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Converlation&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;YouTube:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/@ConverlationYT&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;@ConverlationYT&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Assessment:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.converlation.com/assessment&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Converlation.com/Assessment&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2040149/open_sms&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Send us a text&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;Thanks for listening! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You can help others find the help and encouragement they need when you leave a &lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review wherever you listen. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.linkedin.com/in/megandevito/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Connect with me on LinkedIn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.megandevito.com&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Join me for a Boundaries and Balance Audit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You can feel calmer, clearer, and more confident in just 5 days with my audio course, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.megandevito.com/home-2/lessoverwhelm-morelife&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;Less Overwhelm - More Life&lt;/a&gt;!

This episode is your guide to looking back over the past year with curiosity and love instead of self-criticism. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Coach Megan Devito teaches ambitious women how to use self-assessment to their advantage to find the success and lessons they&apos;ve been seeking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Discover why New Year&apos;s Day is an arbitrary date for change and learn a new, stress-free way to evaluate your past so you can move forward confidently.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this episode, you&apos;ll learn&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Ditch the self-judgment and embrace curiosity: Learn how to look back without pointing out failures or judging yourself into a hole. Instead, view your past with curiosity to find the information you need for the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. The power of small steps and gratitude: Move forward by focusing on small steps and making a list of only three things you would do differently, avoiding the overwhelm of a massive plan or long list of changes. You&apos;ll also learn to roll around in the feeling of gratitude, even for things you hated, because gratitude is a key to moving forward.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3.
