Today's topic will be seasonal changes and how they may affect our motivation. These seasonal changes may bring a shift in motivation. Some seasons trigger more being than doing. We can not expect our motivation to stay at a constant upward rise constantly and consistently. When you are aware that some seasons bring different motivations, the more alignment and freedom you will feel. If you are experiences some changes in your motivation, try identifying what this season might mean to...

This podcast is for anyone wondering, "Where should I go from here?" Sometimes it's difficult to know what the right direction is and sometimes it's even harder to envision a new direction at all. I encourage you to start with a vision. Where can you visualize your life going? This may be one path or it can be many different paths. Once you envision these different possibilities, try to incorporate different micro-actions that may lead you to those desirable destinations. Instead of...

In today's episode, we are talking about how to create and cultivate a remarkable life. First, make sure you identify what a remarkable life would look like to you. You can jot down notes, or start a voice note if you'd like. Ask yourself, what lifestyle or day-to-day activities would give you the sense that what you are doing is truly remarkable. Remember that a remarkable life is whatever feels aligned to you. My life might seem pretty "normal." But I remind myself that having a normal...

Today we will cover how to reconnect to your "why". Your "why" is the reason you are surrounding yourself with who you choose. It is the reason you are taking certain intentional actions every day. Sometimes autopilot creeps in more often than we would like and we realize that we can't differentiate between the days anymore. This can result in burnout. Here are some ways to refocus and reconnect with your "why" for more fulfillment and joy in your life. First, remember how...

Have you ever felt like you're totally moving in the right direction. And you may be glowing with excitement at the way your life is going? This feeling is flow. When you find yourself in that moment, the key is to not force yourself in or out of it. Enjoy the process. This is not the time to run at it, grasp at it, or hold on too tight. Simply be with it and understand that this will happen more often if we let it. If we force it or cling to it, we inflict our will and put too...

Today's topic is how to make meaning when nothing seems to make sense. How can we optimize and reconnect with whatever is happening in this moment, when feeling overwhelmed or out of flow? As with most strategies, we want to bring it back to basics. We need to re-remember what we care about, how we want to show up in our lives, and how we want to show up in relationships and at our jobs. By reconnecting with our values, we are integrating and making meaning at the same time. If we...

How to feel productive when life seems so so busy? Remember that being busy is not the goal. Try to aim for a full and abundant life, not a busy one. We can recognize that being busy may have helped us survive at some point, but a busy life does not mean a rich life. So, if you are feeling like your weeks are so busy but you don't feel productive, it might be because all these different activities and tasks are not being done with intention. Staying busy may be keeping you from truly...

Today, we're diving into how to amplify the good when nothing seems to be going right in your life. You may be feeling this domino affect of experiences that are just not aligning with you over and over again. This is when we have to amplify our own version of good in our lives. This is not the time for toxic positivity. This means, it's okay to feel both ends of the spectrum. It's okay to express when things may not be going the way you'd like. You do not (and will not) feel happy all the...

In this episode, we'll talk about three ways to release stress pain or grief in your life because we all need some time to center ourselves and create inspiration amidst our journeys. First, remove more from your schedule. This allows us to create space to feel any and all emotions.

Find useful distractions that don't numb...

In today's episode, we will quickly be going over how to invite more flow into your daily routine: First, focus on your priorities and minimize distractions. Distractions can be placed into two categories. The first is external distractions such as your child knocking on the door, or an email that sets off a notification. Recognize that these distractions cannot always be avoided. The second category is self-imposed distractions, such as negative thoughts, and feelings that take us out...

A question I am often asked is, "When is it time to let go?" When this question arises, I suggest making space for a full range of reactions. Every single emotion is welcome when making this decision. As you sit with these emotions, ask yourself: How did this serve me? How did it provide something for me that no longer feels in alignment? Another step you can take it practicing gratitude for whatever it is you want to release. What good came from the situation? What did you learn? ...

Oftentimes when something happens in our lives that brings up regret or remorse, we get the urge to cut it out of our story. When these feelings of shame arise, I encourage you to remember that we do not need to cut out parts of our past. We do not need to rewrite our entire story.  Instead, remember that these feelings are an invitation to pause, reassess, and start moving towards the next chapter of your life with the lessons that you have learned. Remember that life will go on, and...

In today's episode, I want to talk about what to do when we feel the impulse to start over. If you are feeling like you just want to run away and start all over, I want you to know that this is just an amazing reminder to get curious about your current mindset and routines. Take a moment to pause and ask yourself: Am I running away from something scary or running towards something new? Am I embracing change or am I fearful of change? Know that you do not have to uproot your entire life...

I'm sure we've all experienced a time when we wanted to quit. A time where we couldn't see a way out and simply wanted to give up. This is where I encourage you NOT to impulsively quit. It's in these pivotal moments, where we can dive deeply into what our core values are and decide with love, what our next steps should be. In a world where comparison is so readily available (especially online), I lovingly remind you that life will always have challenges and it is up to us to decide which...

People who interact with me are often surprised to find out that I usually only see clients one day a week. Sure - I teach, I do speaking opportunities and collaborations on other days and hours of the week. But it’s usually just an hour here and there.

This week, we’re focusing on how flow helps you elevate where you are in your life - and in a more circular way than you might think. So this episode dives into flow and purpose.

The pressure and teachings of this from a very young age can make us feel like we’re always seeking and stretching ourselves to some unknown end...

Today, I’m addressing a question I get asked all the time: “How do I stop procrastinating so I can start to unlock more flow?” Because when we are in flow, we are able to focus, be hyper-productive and experience alignment - but when we’re distracted and procrastinating on certain activities and tasks, we delay accessing flow. So I’ll be sharing the 4 ways that you can overcome any procrastinating tendencies that take you out of your zone of genius, In this episode, Julia walks through: ...

How can flow help you move from your perfectionistic tendencies into a more balanced ebb-and-flow? Often, as high achievers, we can put so much pressure on ourselves to stay in line, follow certain rules and respond accordingly by getting things as perfect as possible. The truth is, perfectionism can get in our way and prevent creativity more than enhancing our lives. In this episode, Julia discusses: -Activating creativity that does not fit into a box -The blend of following guidelines...
