Emotionally Uncomfortable

POINT: Go where you feel GOOD (where you feel ALIVE). If you don't feel welcome somewhere, leave and don't return. Find the people that make you feel good and find more of them. We all have our people. Where are yours? It's a deep rooted human need to be in connection with others. POINT: Create what you want to be a part of. If it's not out their and you want it. Create it. That's what I did and do to this day. POINT: Take action. Create it now!! Change won't happen unless someone takes action. You can be the next leader, trailblazer, game changer. It's up to you. ACTION STEP: Journal. What tribe do you want to be a part of? Where are these people? Join a tribe. Paid or not paid. Join a meet up. Create your own.

Point: Don’t settle for good, achieve greatness. Happiness comes when we are diving into our soul desires. Good is average, greatness is becoming who you were born to become. Point: Become what you most desire your children to be. We can not expect anything from others, if we are not willing to do it ourselves. Period. Point: Have hard conversations. This is where the magic happens. This is when connection and growth occur. ACTION STEP: Journal. Where are you settling? What is one uncomfortable conversation you need to have.

Today is a very special topic. As a coach and former Social Worker I've seen and witnessed many miracles happen with women and families all around the world. But their is one trend that I've started to notice. Change doesn't happen unless you believe it's possible and change won't happen unless you think you're worthy of change. This is a big problem because for so many who are struggling to make change in their lives, they are missing the point of WHY change isn't coming. Not feeling worthy is a STORY you've told yourself over the years. It's not the true essence of who you really are. TODAY'S ACTION STEP: Ask yourself if you believe change is possible. Ask yourself if you think you're worthy of change. Don't forget Sun & Soul Retreat 2016. February 17-21 www.triptribe.com/sunandsoul Have questions, send us an email support@heatherchauvin.com

Today on the podcast I’ve listed things to do NOW that will allow you to feel in control of your time.I'm starting here because we both know if YOU feel out of control -- you won't be able to be present to support your children's needs or creating the life you want. Step 1: Get clear on how you want to feel on a daily basis.Step 2: Identity your energy leaks. Step 3: Say No. Learn how to say this is a nice way so you're honouring yourself and those involved.

Today on the podcast I’m talking about fear. We all have it, so how do we control it? How can we co create the life we DO want, while living with fear? How can we teach and support our children through their big emotions as well? This is a near and dear subject my heart because I witness so many children who struggle greatly with fear, anxiety and overwhelm that are not being taught how to manage it. And as a parent and a cancer survivor I know what it feels like to live in fear. During my diagnosis I was in a constant state of fear but along the way I discovered a few strategies that quickly shifted my perspective and allowed my body to calm down. On today’s podcast episode, I discuss: What fear is and why it’s essential to keep us safe everyday. How to identify ‘true’ fear and self sabotage. What questions to ask yourself when stuck in a fearful state of mind. Fear is healthy. It’s part of the human experience. The more we teach ourselves and our children how to identify, manage and co create with fear this is where we start to create a life we truly love. Hope on over to the podcast and listen. The Mom Is In Control Podcast is also available on stitcher. Warmly, Heather P.S. It takes a village to raise an emotionally healthy child. If you know another mama who could benefit from this podcast, please feel free to pass it along. Thank you in advance. Join the newsletter list at www.heatherchauvin.com

I have officially turned on the ‘explicit’ label on all my podcasts. This was inspired by Karen Osburn and her new podcast Women Wanting More. Click it out here. Those who know me, know my biggest pet peeve is lying and BS. I can’t stand it. I can smell it a mile away. I crave real, raw and honest conversations with real humans beings. Vulnerability is the way I like to live myself. If you’re not being real, than what are you being? I think culturally we are missing a HUGE piece that will solve a lot of our mental health issues. Getting real with self care. What is means and why it's so important. Today’s podcast is about real self care. This goes beyond the pedicures and closet full of the latest fashions. It’s about soul level self love. Compassion and discovering the essence of who you really are — and who you children really are. I list out a bunch of way to connect with yourself - that won't cost you a dime or take a lot of time. Come join the private FB group.

We are celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving over here. Unfortunately mine includes a head cold. Which means cooking with a cold. Don’t be jealous :) On today’s podcast episode I interview Kiva Leatherman from the WISE Women Network. I love Kiva’s real deal perspective on life, business and parenting so I wanted to ask her a few questions about what it’s like to go for you want AND be a conscious involved parent. Purpose beyond parenting. How to find it and why is it so important to feel connected outside of your role as a mother. What’s an inner calling and why is it so important to honours AND your child’s? Surrender. How does this allow someone to feel in control? I look forward to hearing your feedback about today’s episode.
