b'How To Be The Boss During Big Life Changes\\nOn January 1, 2021, I woke up in a new state.\\nLiterally...and mentally, to be honest.\\nThe first six months of 2021 were some of the most challenging months I\\u2019ve ever had...and hardly anyone knew.\\xa0\\xa0\\nI experienced three major life changes back to back, and even though some of those changes were really good...change is still change.\\xa0\\nIt knocked the wind out of me and struggled to find my footing.\\nWhen it rained, it poured and I was caught with no umbrella...totally exposed.\\xa0\\nGene-Kelly wasn\\u2019t coming to save me.\\nNOBODY was singing in this rain.\\nAnd in this episode, I\\u2019m peeling back the curtain and letting you in on these three biiiig changes because I know I\\u2019m not unique in this feeling.\\xa0\\nSharing these raw stories with you isn\\u2019t always easy for me, but I think it\\u2019s important.\\nEntrepreneurs, we\\u2019re human too.\\nSo here it is.\\nYour permission to be totally...messily...freely human.\\nTo take up as much space with your process as you need to.\\nTo work through hard things as quickly as you\\u2019re able, but as slowly as you need.\\nAnd now that I\\u2019m 6 months into the year and juuuust about on the other side of my storm, I want to share with you the habits and thought patterns that have made a world of a difference to me as I, an entrepreneur, took on...well, life.\\xa0\\nMy friend, if you\\u2019ve ever felt like a fraud as a leader or doubted your ability to make an impact because you\\u2019re struggling with life circumstances...I recorded every minute of this episode with you in mind.\\nClick to listen and know that I\\u2019m cheering you on every step of the way.\\nHere\\u2019s a glance at this episode...\\n\\n[10:22] Because of my depression, I reverted back to old behaviors and started to eat to calm myself. It affected my work and personal life. I love change, but this one was bigger than I had planned.\\xa0\\n\\n[13:22] Having anxiety and depression has helped me to better understand my students who struggle with mental illness. It has allowed me to have more compassion and understand how hard it can be to run a business and get through these things. It\'s not easy, but I believe it can be done.\\n\\n[21:21] Thoughts create feelings, feelings create actions, and actions create results. I know when I have a certain feeling, it comes from a thought. I\'m now focused on moving forward and dealing with my thoughts and feelings in a more positive way.\\n\\n[23:03] If you\'re dealing with reverting to old habits or struggling with feeling confident in any which way, I know what that feels like. You need to be seen and heard and set an example for those in your audience who also may be struggling with the same insecurities.\\n\\n[26:37] I got a book deal. When I got the deal, things became weird. My head was full of doubt. Before this, I spent four months writing my proposal, and I felt like I was in the flow. After the deal, my progress stalled. I was on the hook and suddenly felt like nothing was good enough.\\n\\n[33:29] When we\'re more aware of self-sabotage or impostor syndrome, we have a better ability to stop it. Enjoy the good things that come into your life. You deserve them.\\n\\n[34:58] Think of what you\'ve struggled with and then say, "this is normal." We all have our struggles. We can all be empowered and take away the judgment and accept that challenges happen. Keep moving forward and do the next right thing.\\n\\nRate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts\\n"I love Amy and Online Marketing Made Easy." <-- If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing my show!
