My chat with the 'not so boring insurance agent,' Elena Lubenets

When I first heard Elena Lubenets’ story, I thought “how ironic…an insurance agent who completed one of the riskiest activities possible.” (You’ll just have to listen to find out what this risk taker did!) But what I LOVE is how facing a very physical risk led her to face the fear of leaving her corporate career. In this episode, Elena and I chat about facing fear to follow more purposeful work, being a woman in a leadership role in a male-dominated industry, the differences between selling and educating, and a whole lot more.

Concierge Medicine, Hormone Replacement, and More with Dr. Bethany Recker

In my professional development group for women, Learn. Connect. Support., I cannot tell you how many times our conversations turn to hormones! (As I always say, you can’t separate PERSONAL development from PROFESSIONAL development; we’re going to cover it all!) We’re SO lucky to have a doctor in our circle. :) Sooo…I invited Dr. Bethany to join me on the podcast to discuss how her practice model is different. (If you’re not familiar with the term “concierge medicine,” here you go.) And of course, we’re going to talk about hormone replacement and all the other services she offers at Retro Health + Aesthetics. Listen in!

Overcoming Fear with Merry Korn

THIS episode is for everyone! My guest, Merry Korn, shares so much information about overcoming fear…stories from her life, book recommendations, and even a list of things to do to move forward when you are afraid. I heard Merry’s story when she presented at a meeting I attended, and I STILL got chills talking to her for this podcast. I took down so many notes and takeaways. For example, I jotted down that hitting rock bottom can be a blessing, and that you just have to put on blinders and take action. Of course, you’ll want to listen to the entire episode for context and take your own notes! :) And don’t forget to subscribe to the Girl Next Door Wanting More podcast and share with your like-minded friends!

Don't Believe Everything You Think

In the last episode, I talked about limiting beliefs and how we can reprogram our thoughts. (So if you missed the last episode, listen to this one and then go back and get caught up.) In THIS episode, I’m talking about CATCHING those thoughts that you want to reprogram, and I’m sharing a fact-based exercise to help you determine if the thought you have is true or false. I talk about gaslighting in this episode. I DO want to call out that I am NOT a therapist; I am simply sharing my experience. My hope, as always, is that you will find some useful nugget that you can apply to your own life and situation. Here we go!

Limiting Beliefs

In this episode, I’m talking about limiting beliefs. What are limiting beliefs? How do they keep you stuck? How can you change these beliefs and reach your full potential? Coaching and presenting on matters of mindset is my sweet spot, so I’m thrilled to be sharing this episode with YOU. I’ll give you a little explanation of why our brains create limiting beliefs in the first place. I’ll share a couple examples of my own limiting beliefs and how I work through them. And I’ll wrap it up with some action steps for how you can identify and work through your OWN limiting beliefs. Sound like a plan? Great! Take a listen!!

People Pleasing with Coach Charlotte Gray

I can’t get enough of this topic…People Pleasing! It comes up all the time. Sometimes in a joking, almost self-depricating manner like, “What’s wrong with me? I say yes to everything,” and sometimes as a more serious, “I need help, I’m overwhelmed, I’m not in control of my own time.” Obviously, I wouldn’t be so invested in this topic if I wasn’t also seeking answers for myself. So, I enlisted the wisdom of Coach Charlotte Gray. In this episode, we’re discussing what it means to be a people pleaser, what the consequences of being a people pleaser are, and how to begin changing our people pleasing behavior. Listen and learn.

What Kind of People Pleaser Are You? A Story About Three Cats

The topic that comes up most often in conversations with other ‘girls next door’ is about the degree of people pleasing we do. There is definitely a spectrum in my friend group, ranging from those who hold firm boundaries to those who bend over backwards to please others. In a recent encounter with my three cats, I got to witness three very different levels of people pleasing. The cats’ responses to a stressful situation provided me with examples of how humans react to situations based on their people pleasing tendencies. Listen in and decide which cat you relate to most.

Resistance v. Surrender

In this episode, I am using the analogy of a really ugly run I completed recently to explain universal lessons about goal achievement. In addition to resistance and surrender, I’m talking about motivation, discipline, and of course, mindset!

Retirement Possibilities with Ann Fox

If you knew you were going to live to be 100, would you be planning for your future differently? Would you be taking care of yourself differently? In this episode, I’m talking to Ann Fox of Centenari-Ann. Ann fully expects to live to 100 as her happy, healthy, fulfilled self. I’m excited for you to hear my conversation with Ann! She is sharing what we can be doing as women in our 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s to prepare for the “retirement years,” knowing that retirement does not have to look like it did for our parents’ generation. Ann gives you a lot to think about as far as how to have healthy relationships, how to take care of your physical and mental health, and possibilities for how to enjoy your time after 50.
