Welcome back to THRIVE. If you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, today’s episode with Craig Siegel will feel like straight fire. Craig founded Cultivate Lasting Symphony and the CLS podcast after figuring out he was burnt out after a 10-year career on Wall Street. He’s been featured in Entrepreneur, MSN, Yahoo Finance and then some, and he’s seriously gifted at helping other people reach their full potential - or even figure out what it is in the first place.

Today’s conversation with my new friend Gwen is an absolute breath of fresh air, and is no doubt going to be a positive pause in your day. Gwen is a Mindfulness Teacher and Coach, finishing up her Masters degree in Mindfulness after spending two decades in Corporate HR studying human behavior and psychology. Today on THRIVE, she’s helping us all take a deep breath, slow down, and notice the present moment.

She actually walks us through not one but TWO mini meditations together so that you can experience a mindful moment before today’s episode is through. She also gives practical ways to become more mindful in your busy everyday life, as well as a few tips specifically for mamas listening in on ways to be more mindful parents.

Is your mind ready to be blown? Because today’s episode with Laura Martin is mindblowingly interesting and ridiculously helpful. Laura is a certified IBS Nutrition Consultant and the founder of Healing to Happy - after years of having an eating disorder, Laura developed a laundry list of symptoms from IBS to hypo and hyperthyroidism, and she knew she needed and wanted a change. She became an expert in the gut-brain connection and ended up in remission for her own symptoms before helping hundreds of other women heal the bodies AND brains and live healthier, happier lifestyles. In this conversation she deep dives into everything from what that gut-brain connection actually IS, how to stop bloating, why restrictive eating or elimination diets are actually the worst, and some quick tips for what to do instead so that you actually ENJOY eating again - and yes, that means pizza and your favorite cookies, too.    CONNECT WITH LAURA Instagram Healing to Happy website   SHOP THE THRIVING COLLECTION HERE   GET YOUR COPY OF CAFFEINATE YOUR SOUL: 52 MONDAY MANTRAS HERE: Amazon Barnes and Noble Target Walmart   FOLLOW ALONG: THRIVE Podcast Instagram Instagram Facebook Coming Up Roses Learn more about your ad choices.

I hope you’re ready to go to church with TikTok’s own Mama Lo, because she is preaching the power of positivity today. Lo has gone viral on TikTok for her funny and relatable stories of motherhood, but also for her inspiring, empowering messages to start the day strong. In today’s episode, Lo shares real advice on what choosing positivity and joy in this world looks like - without the fluffy stuff. She also shares her own personal favorite mantras and affirmations and speaks to the heart who’s been feeling the need to shrink herself or get smaller for someone else’s approval or validation. Lo brings the dynamite of a preacher with the heart of a best friend - and it just may be the pep talk you need to hear right now.    CONNECT WITH MAMA LO Tiktok Instagram Facebook Youtube Blog   SHOP THE THRIVING COLLECTION   GET YOUR COPY OF CAFFEINATE YOUR SOUL: 52 MONDAY MANTRAS HERE: Amazon Barnes and Noble Target Walmart   FOLLOW ALONG: THRIVE Podcast Instagram Instagram Facebook Coming Up Roses Learn more about your ad choices.

For women in the workplace, today’s episode will soothe your soul. I got to have a conversation with leadership professor and author of Kicking Ass in a Corset, Andrea Kayne. Andrea happens to be a Jane Austen junkie, so a lot of her work and teaching finds answers to many modern day problems and challenges in the pages of Jane Austen novels - everything from the pressure to be likeable to financial inequity in the workforce. Today on THRIVE, Andrea is taking us to class and giving practical tips and exercises to use on the job and in your life, from developing your own leadership skills to communicating merit to your boss. We also talk about finding confidence on the inside and how to root yourself in that instead of chasing external validation, AND we talk about the importance of rest and how to practically make that happen without guilt - even with the busiest of schedules.   CONNECT WITH ANDREA: Kicking Ass in a Corset Website Instagram   SHOP THE THRIVING COLLECTION   GET YOUR COPY OF CAFFEINATE YOUR SOUL: 52 MONDAY MANTRAS HERE: Amazon Barnes and Noble Target Walmart   FOLLOW ALONG: THRIVE Podcast Instagram Facebook Coming Up Roses Learn more about your ad choices.

If you’ve ever struggled with confidence or a lack thereof, today’s episode with my new friend Jess is for you. After spending years in Big Corporate doing leadership development programs and realizing that other people saw her a bit differently than she was seeing herself, Jess Critchlow uncovered a few Confidence Archetypes that shine a light on how we each show up in the world differently but confidently. Today on THRIVE we’re unpacking those archetypes (plus she’s got a quiz for you to find yours!). We’re also diving deep into imposter syndrome and feedback and how to reframe both, as well as taking a lesson from Buddhist monks, whom Jess studied with in England, on detaching from outcomes for an ultimately more fulfilling life.   CONNECT WITH JESS: Instagram Archetype Quiz Website   SHOP THE THRIVING COLLECTION: Shop here   GET YOUR COPY OF CAFFEINATE YOUR SOUL: 52 MONDAY MANTRAS HERE: Amazon Barnes and Noble Target Walmart   FOLLOW ALONG: THRIVE Podcast Instagram Instagram Facebook Coming Up Roses Learn more about your ad choices.

Serial entrepreneur, speaker and bestselling author Anthony Trucks is living proof of the reality that we can CREATE our own identities with intention to achieve literally ANYTHING we want in life - so long as we’re willing to stick it out through the painful parts along the way.

In today’s episode, he’s dropping practical tips and step-by-steps for making that your own reality too, so that no matter what hand you’ve been dealt, you feel empowered to step up, accept change, and make shift happen.   CONNECT WITH ANTHONY Identity Shift: Upgrade How You Operate to Elevate Your Life (Use code "TP" to get an additional SIGNED copy of the book) Instagram Website   GET YOUR COPY OF CAFFEINATE YOUR SOUL: 52 MONDAY MANTRAS HERE: Amazon Barnes and Noble Target Walmart   FOLLOW ALONG: THRIVE Podcast Instagram Instagram Facebook Coming Up Roses Learn more about your ad choices.

Today’s episode does come with a trigger warning, as we do talk about things like sexual assault and abuse. If you’re feeling a bit sensitive to those topics today, please feel free to listen to a different episode of THRIVE instead and come back if or when it feels right. For those who have gone through some really terrible stuff in life, it can be hard to feel like a survivor - let alone a thriver. But today’s guest, Terri Kozlowski, is here to help you do just that. She’s a proud Native American warrior of the Athabascan Gwich’in Tribe (Raven Clan), a certified life coach, author, podcaster - and a survivor of childhood trauma and sexual abuse.
