The post Changing Perspective appeared first on Jodie Baudek.

Today I want to talk to you about changing your perspective on life. It may seem simple enough but how we perceive life, really affects how we live. Usually we are always talking about the empowerment talk, but what we are going to do is intertwine two things that are really important. One is “Empowerment Talk” and the other one is “What Is Right With Life.” If we can start seeing what is right with life, and making better decisions, people will have a much better quality of life. Are you...

Don’t Just Survive, I Want You To Thrive Today I have the honor to have with me, Gloria Dollinger, a registered dietitian, mother, and business owner.  She is going to be teaching us about the power of food and how we can use our relationship with food to help change our life. As a Dietician, she knows what we should be eating, but as a mother and a friend, she also knows, knowing… isn’t alway enough. Lifestyle changes don’t have to be intimidating, nor overwhelming. Just recognizing...

I am so excited to introduce you to an amazing friend of mine, Jim Lopez. We met at my one of my book signings and we haven’t stopped talking since. I gave him a challenge to write his own book and he took it. Jim is a Chiropractor at Universal Wellness Source in Chicago. His site can be found at www.universalwellnesssource. com. He truly does so much for his community. He is currently doing a fundraiser for local Chicago Public Schools, so anyone who wants to be able to receive treatment...

I am so excited to introduce you to a dear friend of mine, Lori Hess, who is a Health Coach among many things. She is part of Jodie Baudek Productions, and will be a part of the crazy amazing things we have going on here. Lori had been training hundreds of people in Chicago and very focused on food and exercise and then noticed a pattern: life happened. They weren’t able to reach the goals they really wanted to attain. Finally, a lightbulb went off and she realized that the Health Coaching...

I really need your help. Book number one, “Pssst…Wanna Get Out Of Your Own Way”, has been doing really well.  But it is time for the next one to come out. Here is the thing…. we need help naming the next book. It is a compilation of all the stories of people who bought Book One. These stories are amazing, but that shouldn’t be a surprise because they are amazing. This book has changed so many lives, we had to put names in a hat because we couldn’t figure out which ones we were going to use...

Give your self permission to be happy.  I want you to give your self permission to let go of anything that is holding you back. Let go of any story that you have told yourself that you have to stay where you are if you are not completely happy. You were put on this earth to be happy, to love, to live and to know that you mattered. So, don’t hold your self back because of someone else. Don’t shrink down because of someone else. Don’t you want to know that you were happy? Don’t you want to...

Today I want to talk to you about looking at life through the eyes of a child. Seems too simple doesn’t it? But, as an adult do you think we like to over complicate things a little? Yesterday I was asked to teach 500 little kids in the local school and it was incredible. We were silly and had way too much fun. I noticed children are so open and honest. The smallest little thing can excite them. At that age they want to investigate, learn and grow. At that age there are no limitations, they...

Are you living the most incredible life? And if not, let’s talk about that. Why you are not living the most incredible life? A lot of time we have blocks to our blessings because we have old stories playing in our mind. Or, we might be playing the blame game. Let’s start letting go of those old stories that just aren’t serving you anymore. One of the things I would really like to talk to you about is a taboo subject. That is money! A lot of people don’t think they should make money sharing...

Today I would like to talk about how we can really make a difference in other people’s lives. I got an e-mail from someone who took my class over a decade ago. They walked into my studio and we hit it off right away. The wife took hours trying to help me learn some much needed computer skills. Fast forward a few years later and she and her husband came in when I moved to a bigger space to buy packages, (although they could not use them because of how far they lived), to just support me. You...

Today I would like to talk about the power of intentions. Are you setting your intentions? Every single morning when I wake up, I set my intentions. When you do that, it sets you in this vibration of opening yourself up to allowing those miracles you have been asking for to come into your life. And, I am a big believer of being grateful for everything. You have to say thank you for all those wonderful beautiful things in your life. But, let’s start to learn how to set your...

Today I would like to talk about how to connect to your future self. You might be surprised to find out what you can discover about your self from a different perspective. Recently, someone from the ‘Change Your Life’ webinar admitted that there were things he was masking from himself and recognized that if he wanted to move forward professionally and personally, it was time to start taking that mask off and being brutally honest with himself. If your future self were to be brutally honest...

Last week was really powerful. Sometimes when the Universe sits you down and says ‘shush’ it means it is time to slow down. My voice was really hoarse and I saw that as a sign from the Universe to slow down. What happens when you are not doing well? Well, I suggest you do something for your self. A lot of times we get physically ill when something is out of alignment. Could you be doing too much? Not resting enough? Taking care of your self is the greatest way to be able to take care of...

  I have been getting a lot of questions lately about what an empowered life really means.  An empowered life freaken rocks! It means you are in control of your life. It means you are in control of your decisions. You are in control of the way that you feel. You are in control of where you are going spiritually, mentally, emotionally, financially, physically: you are the one in control of all of those spaces. I am not saying you are not going to have a bad day and you are not going to...

I was so excited to hear all of your feedback, it was great. I love hearing from you guys, hearing how you are feeling, and hearing how you are doing, so keep the comments coming in! One of the questions that someone asked after the last show was, ‘how do I go about achieving my goals?’  I know you hear me talking about my goals all the time, which is important part of planning process. Speak your goals out so the Universe can know what you want. But, to be honest, there were times when I...

Today I want to talk to you guys about something I am choosing to make my mantra for the entire year. Love, Laugh, Give and Dream Big. We are all destined for greatness but sometimes we don’t love our self enough, or we may even feel if we do step into our greatness, our loved ones won’t come along with us. You don’t really know what others will do, or how they will react to you making positive changes in your life. But, you can trust that you will be a better spouse, or friend, or teacher,...

Today I would like to talk about clearing out your past to make room for your future. How many times have you held onto things that you don’t really need and don’t even realize they are taking up space in your life? Have you made some real changes in your mind and your body, but keep looking back and begin to question your own choices? Let’s go and clean out some things so you don’t have permission to go back to your old life. Invest in your self, in new schooling, training, or whatever you...

Today I want to talk to you about writing the next best chapter of your life. You might doubt that it can be possible, but you are the one who gets to write your story. Things may seem challenging right now, things may even seem a little overwhelming: But, you have to tell your self that your life is incredible, and then start to pay attention to all the signs that it really is. If you choose to do things differently, maybe those overwhelming things won’t keep showing up for you. This show...

Today I want to talk to you about the importance of taking care of yourself during stressful times, and some tips for handling them. Depending on what season you are in, whether it be a season of your life, or the holidays, or wherever you are. A lot of times we can put enormous pressure on ourselves, especially during the holidays without even knowing it. We have a tendency of putting so many expectations on ourselves.. especially during the Holiday months. We have to buy the perfect gifts,...

This week I would like to work on a few different relationship issues. Do you have a relationship that needs a little bit of work, or maybe even one that you would like to take to the next level? Today we discuss some easy ways to work on relationships that we often thought we couldn’t change, or make better. What are some things that are interfering with you enjoying meaningful, fulfilling relationships with others? Don’t we all start relationships with others for a certain reason?...

Thanks for tuning into our next show. Today I want to talk to you about being open to receive. Did you ask the Universe for some help? Are you afraid to make changes in your life, even though you might be ready? Listen to how you can make choices to fulfill the goals you are working on right now. Learn how to step into your greatness. Let go of the past that is interfering with your present. Let your present intentions create a ripple effect for your future self. Namaste, Jodie...

I want to talk to you guys about something that is really important today. That something is you. I want you to choose you. You can get lost in the shuffle, you get put on the back burner because you are doing everything you ‘get’ to do everyday. You get to take care of your life, you get to work, you get to do a lot of things. And when I say ‘get’, that is what I mean, you really ‘get’ the chance to do all those things. Often I hear people say,”Oh, well I gotta I do this, and I gotta to do...
