WOL #34: Honest Convos: Are "Dreams" Getting In Your Way?

#034: Can "Good" hinder "Great"? Oh boy! I feel like I've committed heresy just asking, "Are 'dreams' getting in your way?" To myself, my kids, friends and family I've promoted to NEVER give up on dreams. "DREAM" plaques hang on walls and goodness knows how many presentations have been centered on this foundation. But, I always want to podcast with honesty and be okay posing questions so ALL of us grow. Maybe you listen today and it doesn't resonate. But maybe, some day down the road, you'll need to properly place dreams that are weighing you down so you can live full and well. I was at a low recently; I pondered things that hadn't happened, things that seemed impossible even after trying so hard. As I laid my head down one night I had all the "WHY, WHY, WHY?" questions going through my head. And in the next moment it came to me: "MAYBE dreaming has gotten in your way." WHAT?!!! It was like a slap of awakening. I had focused so hard on the "dream".... thinking that this month or year would be the magical one. What really happened was I ended up holding so tightly that I became STUCK. Super stuck. Unfulfilled dreams began to drag me down. When this happens our hands aren't open. Our hearts aren't open. Our minds aren't open. All we see is what ISN'T happening.... although it feels good, beautiful and right. But, has it become an idol that keeps us burdened instead of free? Evaluate the place of "DREAMS" in your life and ask yourself the hard, hard question: "What if my dreams are getting in my way?" And how do I release GOOD in order to accept GREAT in its time?

WOL #31: Get Prepped: Immune Support #2

#031: So you want to level up your immune support game? We're honest around these parts, so this episode will hit home.... but is delivered with a whole lotta love. Strong immune systems ALSO have household and environmental toxins eliminated as much as possible. It also includes protecting sleep (as much as possible) and being aware of what you're consuming. We could go on for days! BUT.... as you listen remember it's SIMPLE steps, not overnight, drastic changes that lead to consistent, long-term health. SIMPLE SWITCHES is what I like to call them. I hope you gain some AH-HA! moments this episode. Once again, GRAB A NOTEPAD!

WOL#30: Get Prepped: Immune Support #1

#030: So you want to have an immune system arsenal for winter (and always)? This is a difficult subject to condense so hang on for PART 2 next week! The more I added to my notes the more I realized we've been covering all of this all along. With the TOXIN KNOCKOUT SERIES (#9 to #13) and FOOD SERIES (#2 - #8) all all the other episodes we've been addressing overall health, which directly impacts your immune health. Everything is connected. We cannot isolate anything in nature and neither should we isolate anything in health. Although hard to pair down, I'm sharing personal results and experiences over 15 years, focusing on what is great for internal fortification. At the end I talked about why we rely heavily on dōTERRA oils and supplements. Those were a game changer for increasing how wide a range we could take care of from home. GRAB A NOTEPAD! In the next episode we're covering household environment, simple healthier switches for everyday items and lifestyle.
