Do you feel judged by others, especially other women?  Or, do you find yourself comparing yourself to those around you, and perhaps trying to pick apart and being others down?  Do you feel like you have no boundaries and are give most of your time and energy to others: career, family, friends, parents, with little time to 'fill your own bucket?'.  If so, this podcast is recorded just for you.  

Up until recently, I only knew a little bit about Aryn Savard: I knew she owned the Goddess Movement, a pole fitness and circus studio in Abbotsford BC- and that she can dance... like really dance (click here to visit her Facebook page and check out the videos!)  But when we met up for a walk (yes, with her dogs), the conversation flowed, and I knew you'd love to hear from her.  

We cover a lot of topics such as...

  • Judging others and being judged (ie. 'mean girls') and what it really means
  • Aryn's breakdown, which ultimately lead to learning to set boundaries and prioritizing her health
  • How to actually start working on 'self care'

How many times have you been told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, or that you need to eat small meals often throughout the day to 'fire up you metabolism'.  

What if it's simply not true?

I'm thrilled to bring Sharon Fast, Registered Dietitian (back onto the Fit and Vibrant You Podcast for the third time) to talk all about Intermittent Fasting.

We cover:

    What it is
    Who should do it (and who should not do it)
    Benefits of Intermittent Fasting
    The right mindset for Intermittent Fasting (in other words... don't make this another 'diet'!)
    Simple steps to get started

I interviewed Sharon in Episode 2 (Eating for All Day Energy) and Episode 31 (Supplementing your Real Food Diet).  Sharon is also a contributor to the Whole You Transformation Project, and someone I regularly refer my clients to go see for additional nutrition support.  

And if you live in Chilliwack, BC (my hometown) be sure to check out the Emotional Eating Seminar on October 26th.  It's free (yay!)  but registration is required.

Do you recall times in your life, or maybe you're like this right now, when you just feel really good?  You're inspired, you have energy, and you're simply happy.

And then there's other times when things aren't so hot.  Everything seems to be a bit of a struggle.

Wouldn't it be nice to know why, and better yet, what you can do about it?

In this podcast I chat with Michelle Richardson, business and life coach, author and founder of Momentum Works, about Needs-Based Goals that Inspire Action.  

There are many ways to set goals; few, if any, are as effective at inspiring action and achievement as a needs-based approach. Each person has a unique set of personal needs; discovering them and designing their life around them is a critical, yet little known determinant of success and happiness.  Setting goals that align with personal needs and result in the experiences required to feel inspired, vibrant, and fully alive on a daily basis makes them more compelling and increases the likelihood of achievement.

In this episode you'll learn:

    How to determine what your personal needs are
    How to set goals to align with your personal needs
    A bit more about me... Michelle uses the needs-based goals assessment on me :) Be sure to download personal needs worksheet by clicking here!

I have to. I can't. I shouldn't.  If I don't do it, no one else will.

Rules, expectations.  Usually self-inflicted can rob us of our happiness and the ability to take care of ourselves.  Instead of spending time doing the things we want to do, we fill up our schedule with the 'have to's', the obligations.  And the outcome is often resentment, failed relationships and letting ourselves go.

My guest today is Amy E. Smith. Amy is a certified confidence coach, masterful speaker, and personal empowerment expert. Founder of TheJoyJunkie.com, Amy uses her roles as coach, writer, podcaster, and speaker to move individuals to a place of radical personal empowerment and self-love. With acute focus on helping people "find their voice", she is highly sought after for her uncommon style of irreverence, wisdom, and humor and has been a featured expert on Fox 5 San Diego and YourTango.com.

We talk about:

    How to determine which things/ tasks/ events to say yes to, and when to say no
    Exactly what to say so that you can say no with grace
    Simple action steps to get started on setting boundaries and spending more time doing the things that are truly important in your life

I got so fired up during this interview- I look forward to sharing it with you!  Be sure to visit Amy online at the www.thejoyjunkie.com to download her free workbook "How to Stand Up for Yourself without being a Dick".
