( taken from her website).Sharon is a qualified Success Coach, Clinical Psychologist, author, speaker, wife, and mother of two. For the past two decades, she has worked on improving the health and well-being of high achievers who so often sacrifice their self-care as a result of work demands and get caught up with everyone else’s expectations that they end up burning out at alarming rates. So when she started to experience overwhelm and burnout, the irony of the situation was not lost on her.She, too, is a high achiever, so she naturally had a never-ending to-do list. Her brain is always coming up with more ideas. She would have too much on her mind, no direction, and would focus on unimportant items while forgetting about more important ones. It would feel like there was never enough time to do everything she wanted to do and she would end up feeling stressed.Does this sound like any of you listeners out there? Julia truly understands! Julia and Dr. Grossman talk about the difference between coaching and therapy. Dr. Grossman shared on her website and on the show:Coaching taught me systems around organization, planning, and time management. Now, I am super clear about what I need to get done each week, I plan for it and I stick to my plans. As a result of my optimized performance and mindset practices, I get more done in less time, have replaced overwhelm with accomplishment, and most importantly - empower my clients to reach their potential.Through the integration of psychology and mindfulness, I’ve created a comprehensive and transformative program that teaches stressed-out high achievers how to effectively navigate their work and personal life so they can thrive. I love that my work inspires them to think BIGGER, feel more grounded, and handle challenging situations with ease.Book a call with her on her WEBSITE HERE.

On this week's episode of Finding Her, Julia discusses the topic faith, fear, and hope during COVID-19. She takes these three words and opens up a topic that many of the world is used to hearing. She begins the episode questions to her community about their experiences with COVID-19.Is it real? Fake?Do you believe in faith over fear?Do you believe in science or will it all go away after the election?Are you on team red or blue?Have you lost a loved one to COVID?Do you have a job? Health insurance? Food on the table?How is your mental health? How are you children doing being isolated and attending online school?Julia then takes the initiative to talk about the definitions of faith, fear, and hope adding in personal stories, tips to manage fear, and how the power of hope instills resilience in people dealing with mental illnesses.Faith is to have complete trust or confidence in someone or something. Believing in your higher power with 100% certanity that it will all work out. Julia opens up and casually shares her faith, but also acknowledges that you can have fear and faith at the same time. You are not broken or weak if you are faithful and scared. Your fear needs to be managed. Fear in our lives serves a purpose to keep us safe. Fear is a response to a physical and emotional danger. If you didn't feel fear we wouldn't be able to protect ourselves from threats. These threats may have severe consequences or can end in death. It has a strong effect on your mind and body. It is a very powerful emotion.Anxiety on the other hand, is feelings of unmanaged fear. It is usually involving thoughts of a threat or that something will go wrong in the future, not right now. Fear can present itself in your life as: unable to eat, cold and hot sweats, unable to concentrate, feeling dizzy, tense muscles, fast breathing, and weak or tense muscles. Symptoms present because your body is sensing fear and getting ready for a threat. Tips to manage your fear:1. Face it. You are not going to continue participating in avoidance mode.2. Personal strength: Power of affirmations3. Embrace and practice positivity.4. Get out and enjoy nature.5. Reach out to someone for support.Finally, Julia ends the show with the word hope. Hope is defined as an attitude which is optimistic that is based on a desire or expectation. She shares that hope and mental health are key to becoming resilient, end feelings of hopelessness, and recovering faster from setbacks.

On this week's episode of Finding Her, Julia teaches her audience the origin of the term Mad-hatter as she connects the term to the discovery of mercury poisoning in the 18th- 19th century. Men who owned and made felt hats succumbed to this neurological disorder showing symptoms such as slurred speech, memory loss, and tremors. People began labeling them as people who went "mad". With her second introduction of the Mad-hatter, Julia references Lewis Carroll and his facisnating children's novel that he created in 1865, "Alice in Wonderland". It was a children's favorite as Carroll showcased his genius creative ability to write a fictional story for children with a foundation of fantasy and nonsense. Finally in July of 1951, Disney released in full color animation its depicted story of "Alice in Wonderland", where children and parents were introduced to a cast of characters. One of them was the Mad-Hatter. Julia then combines her personal story of attending Disneyland for the first time and falling in love with the Mad-Hatter Teacups found inside Fantasyland. She shares how many memories come back with each visit since she was six years old. She then introduces her mental health illnesses and ties the term Mad-Hatter to her battle with PTSD. PTSD is a condition that affects roughly 7-8% of the US population. More information about PTSD, its prevalence, and treatments can be found at www.ptsd.va.gov Please remember it is a side effect of experiencing a TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE. Anxiety disorders on the other hand, are the most common mental illness in the U.S., affecting 40 million adults in the United States age 18 and older, or 18.1% of the population every year. Only 36.9% of those suffering receive treatment. This information was found on at www.adaa.org Julia shares to her community a moment of true bravery by explaining that her Mad-Hatter and Anxiety sometimes join in together and host their own Mad Tea Party until her PTSD episode passes with treatment including CBT Therapy and Medications. Her episodes are triggered by an event that she interprets as unsafe, uncertain, and unstable.Finally Julia shares about the importance of using person first language. "People-first language emphasizes the individuality, equality and dignity of people with disabilities. Rather than defining people primarily by their disability, people-first language conveys respect by emphasizing the fact that people with disabilities are first and foremost just that—people"- https://askearn.org/topics/retention-advancement/disability-etiquette/people-first-language/ If you have any questions about this episode please email Julia at Julia@juliabusby.com Follow Julia on Instagram @juliambusby Sign up for my FREE 3 Day LIVE Series: Podcasting Hacks to Grow Your Audience and Revenue 10/28-10/30th @ 430PM PST Register here: www.juliabusby.com/3daylive--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/findingher/messageSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/findingher/support

On this week's episode of Finding Her, Julia opens with the book by Wallce J. Nichols who wrote the Blue Mind. In the book Blue Mind, Wallace shares scientific research, studies, personal stories from people that have experienced " The Blue Mind". He shares the surprising science that shows how being near, in, out, or underwater can make you happier, healthier, more connected and better at what you do. This is a must read.  The Finding Her community knows that Julia uses water as a coping skill and that it is important for all humans to be connected to themselves and continue to grow in personal development to understand who you really are. A coping skill is a way that you choose to respond to your feelings and emotions tied to feelings of stress, anger, anxiety, and a variety of other emotions. There are unhealthy and healthy coping skills . A healthy coping skill is a way of coping that helps you feel better while not leading to a negative consequence. Healthy examples:                 Using positive self talk Phoning or talking to a friend Listening to music Resolving a problem Volunteering Walking/ exercise Deep breathing An unhealthy coping skill may help you feel better during, but it usually will lead to consequences and can be harmful for yourself and others. Continual use of unhealthy coping skills can lead to unhealthy relationships with others. Unhealthy examples: Name calling/ shaming Shutting down Being passive aggressive Pretending not to care Emotional eating Reckless behaviors Avoiding the problem Julia shares her list of healthy and unhealthy coping skills and uses a metaphor about waterfalls to share her experience with surrendering to water.  "To me waterfalls feels like our emotions and feelings. Feelings of good, bad, happy, and sad......" "To contain a waterfall is to close ourselves off from growing into who we are meant to be." "Every-time I hear the word waterfalls, I think of the song by the group TLC. I remember when Left Eye died...."  Follow Julia on IG @ juliambusby Email: Julia@juliabusby.com Please allow time for responses, as it takes sometime to respond to emails from the community! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/findingher/message

Just as we are heading into a different way of life here in the world today as we are in the midst of a national pandemic. The conversation with Lizzy gives us the hope and tips that can help us stay grounded, remind us to preservere through hard times and to work and move through shitty days. Lizzy shares how she continues to work through trying times by writing down her feelings and identifying why she might be feeling that way. She believes that writing down her thoughts and feelings has provided her a way to remind herself of her state and that she can move through it without fail. Lizzy's and Julia's humor shine brightly on this episode. As Lizzy would say," Grab a glass of wine and hang on to your tits ladies!"

She dives deep into her own journey and how she felt during this time that she refers to as "living as a hermit". Things to think about when you are listening to this episode. You may want to take notes and listen more than once to Bex as she shares struggles, feelings, and examples of how fear and not wanting to be seen in her body lead her life for eight years. Bex shared the moment she finally said this is enough and began the ardouos journey of uncovering who she really was by the help of a therapist. She shared that after her therapist moved she continued to fight the fight and worked on herself which in turn opened up many opportunities for her to speak her truth and help others from sharing her story. Bex's Self Inventory & Check In example: 1. Stop and check in with yourself during your day. It should take about five minutes. 2. During this time you can reflect on what is or is not serving you. 3. Make a change or adjustment regardless if the consequence is good or bad. 4. Give yourself permission to reflect, understand, and evolve from guiding yourself. Guiding: connected to your personal beliefs, morals, and what you want and need in life.

The information was pulled from the nationaleatingdisorderns.org  By Micheal Levine, PhD & Linda Smolak, PhD On today's episode Julia speaks about combating negative body image using the activity found on the national eating disorders website to get her listeners thinking about their personal feelings surrounding their personal body image. She reads each of the questions found on the website and directs each one to how our behaviors can be combated with self awareness, mindfulness, and being present with the way that these statements or situations make us feel. Here are the list of statements and questions pulled from the website: 1. Am I benefiting from focusing on what I believe are flaws in my body weight or shape? 2. Think of three reasons why it is ridiculous for me to believe that thinner people are happier or better. I will repeat these reasons to myself whenever I feel the urge to compare my body shape to someone else's. 3. I will spend less time in front of mirrors especially when they are making me feel uncomfortable and self conscious about my body. 4. I will exercise for the joy of feeling my body move and grow stronger. I will not exercise simply to lose weight, purge fat from my body, or to make up for calories I have eaten for the day. 5. I will participate in activities that I enjoy, even if they call attention to my weight and shape. I will constantly remind myself that I deserve to do things that I enjoy. 6. I will refuse to wear clothes that are uncomfortable or that I do not like but wear simply because they divert attention from my weight or shape. I will wear clothes that are comfortable and that make me feel at home in my body. 7. I will list 5 to 10 good qualities that I have. I will repeat these to myself whenever I start ti feel bad about my body. 8. I will practice to start taking people seriously for what they say, feel, and do. Not for how slender, our well put together they may look. 9. I will surround myself with people and things that make me feel good about myself and my abilities.  10. I will treat my body with respect and kindness. I will feed it, keep it active, and listen to its needs.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/findingher/message

Welcome to the last show of season one! Wow! Thank you to all who have listened, shared, and reached out to me during my new adventure into the world of podcasting. The power that my Yeti mic paired with my message has been such a blessing! On today's show, I introduce you to my amazingly talented and passionate friend Hallie Avolio. Taken from her website's bio found at https://sassyhealthy.fit/bio/ Hallie Avolio started Sassy Healthy Fit after she experienced an epic melt-down in a dressing room with horrific lighting. It sounds a bit dramatic, but it’s true! From that awful day in the dressing room, a personal revolution was born. A revelation that Hallie had when she said “Fuck this! I’m tired of fighting off my demons!” Hallie picked up her pieces and started truly taking care of herself mind, body and spirit. Her two-year journey included a ton of personal development reading, some radical nutritional changes and a commitment to loving herself wholly and completely. Hallie realized that In- Demand Women are often not paid attention to. They are the forgotten demographic. They are the women who are expected to take care of others, so who takes care of them? The answer: We take care of ourselves! And Sassy Healthy Fit was born! Hallie took her journey from despair to freedom and has shared it with you to create a space for In-Demand Women to thrive and say “I’m going to put myself first” without any guilt. Hallie is the mom to 3 wild, crazy and lovable children and has been married to her best friend Paul for 16 years. She lives in beautiful Santa Barbara, CA in a house that is too small, yet just the right size. Hallie loves listening to music, taking walks on the bluffs right outside her front door, beach therapy, time with friends, dancing, chocolate and of course, coffee. Hallie is a Leo and her energy is infectious! She has often been questioned how she does “all the things” and her answer is always “I just do!” This is a woman on fire who I now get to call my friend! Today we will be talking intimately about rewriting your story and becoming your own hero as Hallie shares in this episode. She is vulnerable and real when she shares with the listeners about her personal struggles during a time in her life where she was unable to recognize who she was. Hallie shares tips including mindset and applying affirmation into your life and daily routine.

Quick episode today on Finding Her, Julia shares her current four favorite F words. Pairing each with a detailed explanation including how they all are intertwined. What are yours? Why? Freedom: Julia shares that Freedom has allowed her to be creative, free to seek therapy, freedom to understand her own strengths and weaknesses and ability to become a digital nomad. What would you choose as your first favorite F word and why? Julia steps up and not only shares her word but also places an intention and reason as to why she has selected freedom as a favorite. Fear: This used to be a word that Julia was not allowing in her life. Really to hide from and not face the fear that has been attempting to dominate her life since she was an eight year old girl. She has spoken on this topic before and relays the main idea that fear should not be feared as it should be a tool to use to keep us safe and not to limit us on what we are all capable of doing or changing in our lives. Kick that fear monster in the face. How do you feel about Fear being a favorite F word and why? Faith: Julia is a religious woman, yet she has decided to keep her relationship with the almighty private and she will not share on this platform. Faith has helped Julia in life when she felt all alone navigating her life's challenges and kept her focused on changing her life for her and her three children. Faith helped her see the good in people and to work on believing that she could change her life for the better. Coming from a very dark place Julia wanted change in her life as she was in a toxic relationship since she was 17 years old. Faith gave her the ability to think about leaving the world of public education and create a business and brand where she can teach self improvement skills to women all over the world. Finally, Julia shares her final favorite F word: F-U-N; as she has mentioned before Julia wanted to be both a writer and a comedian as she grew up watching SNL and Comic Relief. Yep, she loved to have fun and spend time with family and time away from technology. She enjoys camping, hiking and spending time outside.

On this week's episode of Finding Her, Julia announces her month long podcast extravaganza of self sabotaging behaviors. First, she delivers an educational and informative episode laying down the foundation to what attachment theory is including each of the four styles. It is important to understand what style of attachment we developed as infants because the attachment theory slides into our adult lives. It impacts our view of ourselves, relationships with friends and or romantic partners as well as self prophecies and self sabotage.  Julia shares some personal information about what style she thinks she might be. Here on Finding Her, all research has been used and read on air to inform the community through topics that can aid in our journeys of self discovery. The attachment style you developed as a child based on your relationship with caregiver and or parent does not define your way of loving another human in your adult life. It helps as a tool to uncover ways you are defending yourself from getting too close and being emotionally connected. With this information you can work towards forming an earned secure attachment (story of Julia’s life). When a secure attachment is established our self sabotaging behaviors fade as our view of ourselves become more solidified and reinforces a positive mindset.
