In today's episode, you're getting a sneak peak into one of my LIVE's in my private Facebook group for Mompreneurs working to transform their side hustle into their main hustle.  2023 is about LEVELING UP.

And I'll ask you the same thing- are you ready to steward your time, ditch the excuses and DO LESS while ACHIEVING MORE in 2023????  If so, then let's RUN TOGETHER!!  If you're a Mompreneur, and you're ready to LEVEL UP with us in 2023, join my Free Facebook community here: Community.amandamastersoncoaching.com

Raising tiny humans is so hard. As a mom, I've spent a lot of time reading, learning, working on being not only the best mom I can be, but just being the best version of me for me.   I'm not perfect, I'm a work in progress, but what I know is this- God gave me my children for a reason.   Through many books, podcasts, and through working with a parenting coach, there are 6 highlights I want to share with you in this episode- 6 principles that are helping me to change the dynamic of my relationship with my kids, my parenting style, and my relationships in general.  My hope is that this episode will provide insight into ways you too can make changes in your parenting style, your actions, and your thoughts and beliefs so that you too can be the best version of yourself.  Referenced in this episode: "Good Inside" by Dr. Beck Kennedy

Do you have an email list?? Often, as an online entrepreneur primarily growing your business on social, building an email list gets shoved to the back burner or is viewed as a more advanced business strategy for when our business is a little more stable and a little more profitable.  The reality, though, is that building an email list is VITAL to the growth and stability of your business! And this episode will show you exactly WHY you need an email list and you need to start building it NOW!  ................ I have 3 spots open for a free 15 min business assessment call in October.

Mercury's in retrograde, and that means that people and technology are just a little glitchy right now.  Mercury actually enters retrograde 3-4 times each year, but do you know how that affects our energy, technology, and your most importantly- your business??  In this episode, I'll talk about what Mercury retrograde is, the effects it can have, and what you need to do to capitalize on this energy shift instead of falling victim to it!  This is a short one, friends! So grab your coffee, your air pods, and let's chat! 

Can you remember back to your first 30 days of your NWM career?? If it was anything like my experience or the experience of the majority of the Mompreneurs I coach, then it was a time full of lots of emotions- from nervous excitement, hope for your future, as well as overwhelm and maybe even doubt.  As I reflect on my own journey, there was ONE THING that I wish I could travel back in time and teach that brand new, excited, nervous, stars-in-her-eyes version of myself. There's ONE THING that if I had only understood then, my journey would have been fast-tracked to success. My success would have come sooner, it would have been more consistent, and I would have been more balanced.  And although I can't travel back in time, I can share this ONE THING with you, so you can build a more successful business in less time and with less stress.  So whether you're brand new to the NWM industry or even if you've been in the game awhile, but your sales and team haven't grown quite as quickly as you'd like, this episode is a must-listen!  Episode links:  Episode 3: How to craft a morning routine and why you need one in your life Register for the Double Your Sales Masterclass HERE

Do you feel like your sales and recruiting are down because of the uncertain economic times we are currently in? Do you wonder what you can do to try and keep your business afloat if we are heading into a recession? If you answered YES, you're not alone. As I talk with Mompreneurs each day, this is becoming a very common fear that I'm hearing.  In this episode, I'm talking about why these uncertain economic times are causing so much fear in network marketers, and how you can not only recession-proof your online NWM business, but set yourself and your business up for massive growth and abundance RIGHT NOW and as we move through these uncertain economic times.  It's time to abandon that fear and start living in confidence.  Episode links: amandamastersoncoaching.com/abcwaitlist community.amandamastersoncoaching.com

In this episode, I talk about one of the biggest mistakes I see Mompreneurs make: Working in the Cracks of Motherhood.  Quite frankly, this strategy is ruining your business, stealing precious memories and moments from your family and it's actually driving away your dream team.  If you're working in the cracks of Motherhood OR working without a clear strategy, you're going to want to tune into this one! I'm sharing three things you can start doing TODAY to begin to take back your time, take back your business, and take control of your future.  I'll also be sharing 2 common mistakes that many Mompreneurs make when trying to transition away from working in the cracks of Motherhood, plus what you can do to avoid these mistakes too.  Show note links: Join my free VIP community for Mompreneurs:  community.amandamastersoncoaching.com Schedule a free 15 minute chat to discuss the next right steps for you and your business:  https://bit.ly/mompreneurcoachingdiscoverycall Join the Waitlist for my NEW Group Coaching Program:  https://amandamastersoncoaching.com/abcwaitlist

Guilt & Jealousy.  2 emotions that typically stir up negative feelings. 2 emotions that we typically aren't proud of. 2 emotions that we ALL face, at one time or another.  So when these emotions pop up, we can surrender to the negativity of jealousy, or we can allow jealousy to  light the path to our dreams, and we can surrender to the pull of of our dreams.  If we choose to allow jealousy to light the path to our dreams, guilt often shows up. And guilt... guilt kills more dreams than failure ever has.  So how can we harness these emotions- guilt and jealousy- to not only guide our path, but help us to live out our dreams and goals?  I'll share exactly the how-to in this episode.

In this episode, I share 7 tips to stay healthy and increase your natural immunity. As flue season approaches, and as our country is still in the middle of a pandemic, our health has never been more important. However, you don't hear a lot (especially in the MSM) about ways to get and stay healthy and how to increase your body's natural immunity. So I'm sharing my best tips with you today.  Links and studies from this episode:  Harvard study on nutrition:  https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/nutrition-and-immunity/ Autumn Calabrese's podcast on gut health:    https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lets-do-life-with-autumn-calabrese/id1507481039?i=1000523890818 Stress and it's impact on  the immune system: https://www.simplypsychology.org/stress-immune.html Sleep & it's impact on your immune system : https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/insomnia/expert-answers/lack-of-sleep/faq-20057757 Chalene Johnson's podcast on sleep: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/why-sleep-is-the-most-important-thing-you-can-do-for/id911042029?i=1000528836255 Toxic load & it's impact on your immune system: https://centrespringmd.com/the-link-between-toxic-burden-and-immune-health-boost-your-immune-system-by-reducing-toxins/amp Toxic ingredients to avoid: https://www.consciouslifeandstyle.com/toxic-skincare-ingredients-to-avoid/ Pubmed study on Lemon and Geranium EO: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32575476/

Okay, so we've crossed the halfway point of 2021. And you may be looking back and wondering where this year has gone. Most of us set goals in January, and most people have abandoned those goals long before now. But not us!  In this episode we will look at the goals we set at the first of the year, evaluate them and make a plan to crush them... even if they seem too far away at this point! 

Our culture wants to define self care as bubble baths, giant pieces of chocolate cake, girls nights out, and spa days. And while these things are nice, they often times seem so out of reach. Self care shouldn't be about treating ourselves (although treating ourselves is important too!) but rather it should be more about forming healthy, daily habits and caring for ourselves mentally, physically and spiritually. In this episode, I'm going to talk about the true definition of self care. Let's move closer to creating daily, healthy habits together!  I'll share 5 key components of self care in this episode. We will discuss:  1. Establishing daily habits that care for your physical health.  2. Learning to be introspective and listen to your mind and body.  3. Defining and enforcing boundaries.  4. Guarding the doors to your mind.  5. Treating yourself.  I'll then share with you HOW to implement these daily habits and create a life where self care is just part of our routine instead of something you run to when you feel like life has pushed you to your limit. 

I'm sure you've heard at least one of the following sayings:  "Birds of a feather flock together"  Or... "You become like the 5 people you spend the most time with"  Well, for better or worse, it's true.  The people you surround yourself with matter. Just as a multi-national, multi-billion dollar company carefully considers who sits on their board of directors, so should you carefully consider who you allow to sit on your board of directors.  So, are you surrounding yourself with people who raise you up, encourage you to be the best version of yourself and celebrate the milestone wins along the way? Or are the people you surround yourself with actually lowering your standards? In this episode we will explore just how exactly your friends and peer groups are either causing you to tone up or tone down your life. We will talk about what to do when you need to boot someone out of your close 5, and how to replace that person. We will also look at the differences between your peer group, mentors and coaches, and how each of these can add value and raise the standards of your close 5. 

In this episode, we are talking about the qualities of greatness... you know, those people who seem to leave a trail of confetti everywhere they go.  Some people just seem to turn everything they touch into gold. They are successful in every endeavor they undertake, whether it be in business or in their personal life. So what's their secret?  In this episode we will talk about qualities that these people all seem to have in common and I'll be sharing 3 secrets to greatness with you and how you can implement these three things into your life so you can achieve greatness too!  Want a sneak peak into those 3 secrets?  1. Identify your dragons, slay your dragons, fill your cup.  2. Get crystal clear on your goals.  3. Focus on what you can control.  Episode references: Ep 2. The Power of Affirmations  https://anchor.fm/amanda-masterson/episodes/2--The-Power-of-Affirmations-er1er1 Ep. 3.

After releasing the last episode, Ep 6: 4 Excuses You Don't Even Realize You're Making, I started to become bombarded with so many different things about excuses...  I had 2 separate training calls, both centering around excuses.  The new book I started reading was talking about excuses.  A friend in my Push group recommended a podcast... you guessed it, about excuses.  So I knew that God was trying to tell me something. I sat down, examined my recent behaviors and realized that I was falling out of some of the habits I had worked so hard to establish. I was making excuses.  So I knew I had more to share.  If you struggle with making excuses... or even if you don't... check out this episode.  In this episode, I'm diving deeper into excuses.  You were made to live an extraordinary life. Settling for anything less, while you blame lack of time, lack of energy, lack of resources, or lack of self belief, well, that's just not gonna get it, sis.  So let's really dive in. And let's commit together to ditching whatever excuses we've been leaning on. Let's go all in and live that extraordinary life we were meant for. 

In this episode we are diving into how to identify the excuses you're making in your life that's preventing you from becoming the best version of yourself.  We will look at 4 of the most common excuses that we use on the daily and how we can break free from those excuses! 

In this episode we talk about favoritism among your children.   We will talk about what favoritism is, the consequences of favoritism, what influences favoritism, how it is manifested, and 6 tips to avoid it.  We will also discuss why perceived favoritism can have the same effects, both short term and long term, as actual favoritism.  Resources mentioned in this episode:  The 5 Love Languages of Children by Ross Campbell & Gary Chapman 

Do you ever find yourself making a commitment or promise to yourself, and then you end up breaking that promise? Why is it so easy to keep the promises we make to others, but then quickly break promises to ourselves?  If you want to live a life by design, you have to start taking the promises you make to yourself seriously!  In this episode, we will talk about 6 reasons WHY you are constantly quitting on yourself and exactly HOW you can break that cycle!  This is one you aren't going to want to miss! So grab your coffee and join us!  Episode References: Instagram post on Excuses
