I was at the spa the other day, and I couldn’t believe what I saw… There I was, cozied up in my robe, listening to the soothing music playing softly in the background. I could smell wafts of lavender and eucalyptus in the air. Immediately, my shoulders dropped lower and my mind felt lighter. I inhaled deeply and slowly took in my surroundings. And that’s when I noticed it… Every other woman sitting in that room was doing the same thing: staring at her phone. 🤔 Scrolling mindlessly through Instagram… Checking up on work emails… Responding to the constant ping of messages in the group chat… And it made me wonder: if you can’t take a couple of hours away from your phone to be alone with your thoughts at the spa, then when can you?It’s no secret we’re living in a time of massive overconsumption. This not only leads to information overload – but emotional overload. Add in the fact that we’re going into year three of a pandemic, and it’s no wonder you’re feeling the way you’re feeling. As humans, we are not meant to live in a state of stress and stimulation for an extended period of time. By continuously allowing these messages and “distractions” into your daily thoughts, you’re putting yourself into a state of constant triggering – probably without even realizing it.Eventually, you’re so used to being triggered that you just become numb to the emotions. And it’s like you don’t really feel anything at all. Sound familiar? If you’ve been reading my emails, you know by now that I believe your triggers should be embraced rather than avoided. They are an incredible teaching tool, pinpointing areas of weakness that can be improved upon to build greater strength, resiliency, confidence and self-love. But it’s impossible to address your triggers when you’re in a constant state of triggering. If you’re struggling to explain how you’re feeling, or why you’re feeling a certain way, show me your phone and I’ll show you what your triggers are. 🔥 Set your alarm to go off every two hours throughout the day. When you hear it go off, ask yourself: what was I just thinking about? How am I feeling? Write down the thoughts that are going through your head. Pay attention to how you’re feeling in the moment and the way you’re talking to yourself. This exercise can be really effective in helping you better understand the subconscious thoughts and emotions you let into your mind and your heart on a daily basis. After all, 95% of the thoughts you have are subconscious.
You don’t even realize you’re having them. As a result, these thoughts become deeply rooted in your belief system. You don’t just recognize them as thoughts passing by – they become engrained in who you are and how you behave.

You made it! We’re officially one month into 2022, and the pressure for a “new year, new you” is finally starting to float away. And you know what? This is when the real fun begins. If you’ve been feeling like you need to do more and may “already be behind” then you’re really going to want to read this. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: You’re exactly where you need to be. 💯 It’s so easy to get caught up with what everyone else is doing. To compare your chapter one with someone else’s chapter ten. If this sounds like you, it could be a sign that it’s time for you to get on TikTok. 🤣 (Come find me there!) Or it could be a sign that you need to change your CONSUMPTION HABITS. The thing about social media that people often forget is: you have complete control over what you consume, and HOW you consume it.
You are the boss of your life. You make the rules.Over the recent weeks and months, I’ve been reflecting a lot on these questions:
(Because if you read my last email, you know I’m all about how it feels vs. how it looks.) And the truth is, no one gets to decide how I answer these questions but me. I’ve recently made a big shift in the way I consume…
I’ve gotten super particular about WHO I allow into my thoughts, my heart, and my social media feeds. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had my seasons of over-consumption. Where I’ve been a sponge soaking in teachings from all of the podcasts, all the books, all the freebies, courses, and social media posts. And let me tell you: It can also lead to massive doubt, overwhelm and confusion. It messes with your inner peace. I’ve come to realize that if I truly want to attract more joy, peace and love into my life, then I need to get super selective about what (and who) else I allow in. 🔥 Now, I only have a couple of leaders I truly follow: my mentor and Abraham Hicks (if you know, you know). The messages they share are the only ones I listen to, because they bring me into alignment with my truth. As a result, I feel completely clear on:
If you only take one thing away from today’s email, I hope it’s this… It’s time to get really intentional about who you follow, what you’re consuming, and how it’s impacting your life and your business. Nothing is worth losing your inner peace over. Ready to take action? Download my free guide “ 2 Steps to Inner Peace”. I’ll show you how to shut out the distractions of the outside world so you can truly step into alignment. |
