The Path to Empowerment During Menopause (and Menstruation) with Patti Garland
As girls and women we are blessed to experience menstruation, also known as our period, or our cycle. As we experience life, we will all inevitably hit a point where we hit menopause (as if the period wasn't hard enough to get used to, now we have to get used to NOT having it). Today I talk real and raw with weight loss wellness coach Patti Garland. I hope you find today's episode valuable. If you would like more information on Patti or myself, please visit the links below! Thank you so much for your consistent support, stay rooted!

Finding Common Ground: Why?
Welcome to the totally unplanned episode of Motivashan! After a very enlightening weekend visiting Salt Lake City, Utah (enlightening? Utah? Yes!) I decided to expand on last weeks Finding Common Ground in Adversity episode with a unedited raw rant from yours truly. I share with you my experiences, the nuggets of wisdom I picked up, and my heart and soul's mission... Wholeness.
If you are ready to show up as your complete self, its time to start getting real with yourself. Lean into this episode with an open heart, with an open mind, or don't. Its your choice I guess.

Meditation Mondays - Finding Common Ground in Adversity
We all have to interact with people just about everyday. Some of these people we love, some we don't like very much. Either way, conflict is a natural experience that we have to master within ourselves first. This episode will deliver you a fresh perspective on how to approach any kind of conflict, whether with your friend, spouse, parent, lover, coworker or strangers on facebook! If you want to walk from each conflict you find yourself in with a proud heart, take the time to find common ground! I have shared with you a real life, non-corny, practical approach to finding common ground with just about anyone! Stay in your authenticity and communicate with language that will get you where you want to go. Then, enjoy a spoken word written by yours truly, and a live channeled guided meditation to further integrate, relax and contemplate this perspective. You'll leave this episode today with a new sense of understanding how to move through conflict, and why this is so important to have a healthy, happy and free life!

Depression, Anxiety and the Nervous System - Spoken word + Guided Meditation
*Disclaimer: trigger warning, may not be appropriate for all ages, all people. Listen at your own discretion.*
Many of us who have struggled through depression or anxiety haven't actually been told why they are experiencing such heavy and difficult symptoms. Mental illness often doesn't look nearly as difficult as it is. Our nervous system sometimes actually makes things harder for us by reacting and overreacting to some situations where no reaction may have sufficed. Our body is not responding in such a way that allows you to remain calm. Much of this comes from childhood coping mechanisms that we are totally unaware of. So by recognizing the energies and going deeper into them in the moment, we allow ourselves the opportunity to see just how much we actually over power these emotions. It won't be easy. But if you are ready for the challenge of a lifetime, dive in! I'll show you how I swim through these muggy waters and rise to the top like a beautiful lotus.

Confidence & Courage in Uncertainty
Unpack what it is like facing uncertainty with and without confidence and courage as your allies. Take a journey through your mind and sol through a spoken word written to unfold the emotions and power of our choices when we face uncertainty. In times like these, 2020, it is more important than ever to show up with confidence and to be courageous in every moment. We must all show up for the scared inner child within us. Transform out of fear and doubt and into strength, resilience and empowerment.
Finish with a live channeled guided meditation to fully integrate your sol healing to remember how vast your essence truly is. Remember your confidence by taking a journey within, cleaning up and nourishing the center of our being. Dig in deep to find the source of our motivation, our core.

Shyness, Introversion and Leadership
Ever heard of a shy leader? Me neither! Today we break the stigma that only extroverts make good leaders. Being reserved with energy and communication can actually be a good thing! Can we all agree that we much better prefer when the conversation goes both ways? What do you think! Let me know at motivashan@outlook.com.

How to Approach The Aftermath of a Crisis
Although the crisis may not necessarily averted we can still prepare ourselves for the new world we are entering! In this new age of uncertainty, developing strength in communicating with others and finding common ground can be a true lifesaver! Don't let the politics of the world impact your close relationships, learn how to approach everyone's new sense of truth in today's episode!

Pure Empowerment and Balance
This week we discuss empowerment through a state of balance, and how sustainable success stems from a healthy development of our own internal sense of empowerment.
