Her Life Out Loud

Hey friends! One of the biggest questions I had to answer at one point in my life was, "Do I like myself?" After taking some time to honestly assess where I was in life, the answer was NO! I didn't like who I was on the outside. I didn't like who I was on the inside. I didn't like who I was becoming. I really had no idea who I was. I was trying to be everyone else, and had to take time to fine Lacie. The reason I am sharing this is because I have been on a journey with health & wellness for awhile now, and so many times we tend to circle back around to weight and size. We have to change the narrative. One of the most empowering things I have ever done in my life was standing naked in front of a mirror loving the woman I was looking at. I wasn't where I wanted to be weight or size wise, but the more I loved this woman, the more those things didn't matter. Today I share 6 steps that helped me to love myself the way God created me. Personal development, therapy, affirmations, and more!! I can't wait to hear what pieces of gold you have found within this podcast. Make sure to share and tag us at @herlifeoutloud so we can personally thank you and celebrate with you. xoxo Lacie Jaye IG: @heylaciejaye --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support

Hey friends! Always glad you are here. I had it on my heart to share my birth story with Emery, and how things don't always go as planned in birth & life. This conversation has come up a handful of times now, and figured it would be a good one to open up conversation. I am always thankful for your support, and always love hearing what gold nuggets stuck out to you. Keep living your life out loud!!! xoxo Lacie Jaye IG: Heylaciejaye IG: Herlifeoutloud --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support

After years of trying to move to what we thought was a better place, we quickly found out that the grass is NOT always greener on the other side. It is very much in fact, greener where you water it. Now that we are here it is easier to start looking at what else looks "greener" but realizing we are here, and what do we need to get and soak in during this season of life. We talk about what happens when you hyper focus on things outside of your control, and what happens when you let it all go. We can make things so much worse in our minds when we are focusing on it. My husband, Ben, reminded me of this, and come to find out he was completely right! I hope you find some gold nuggets from this podcast to help you move forward and live the life you were created to live! #herlifeoutloud --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support

Are you listening for the whispers of God. So many times we want to have him come in like a wrecking ball. Right? Loud and some sort of physical thing to know that it is really him! I shared a theme that has been showing up in my life this past month, and it was this past Sunday when a guest speaker was talking in our church, and it was like the ah-ha. moment of what my life has been like this past month. What started with a nudge to go to church, turned into something so much more. I hope this episode encourages you to get away from the distractions, and create that space to listen for him. I am just going to be honest, my dang phone is the worst distraction ever. I pick it up and 2 hours have magically disappeared. My team just did a podcast on social media detox. Worth the listen!! I can't wait to hear what you think of this episode. A quote from the service that spoke to me was... Your faith will lead people out of fear and into faith. Im going to just say AMEN to that one. Ladies, it is time to rise up. We are being called to step into our faith and help others get away from the fear that is consuming our world right now. Are you ready?? xo Lacie Jaye Show Notes: IG: @heylaciejaye IG: @herlifeoutloud Revive and Radiate Podcast Through the Eyes of a Lion by Levi Lusko --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support

We tend to focus on the bad things and seem to forget to give thanks on the great things. I share my heart in the process of gratitude, and learning even in the hardest seasons to give thanks and praise to God. There are so many verses that tell us about thanksgiving, and how we are called to give praise . To stop being anxious about the things in life, and to remember that even the birds in the sky are taken care of. Friends, I know what it feels like to have $5 in my account for weeks. I know what it feels like to be late on rent money. The feeling sucks, but time and time again, I am reminded that we have to let go of what we can't control. Be thankful for what we have today because we don't know what tomorrow brings. I have spent so much time in paralyzing anxiety and worry because we were not sure how rent would come through. Only to realize I lost so much time in being present with my family, and being thankful for that the had for us. Stop and give thanks. When the pandemic first hit there was a ton of fear, but when I realized I had no control over the situation... I found myself listening to worship music while I would walk around town. Praising and being thankful for the smallest of things. What incredible things have happened during this season? As much as the pandemic has been frustrating, I can't say I want to erase 2020. so many incredible things have happened during this year, and I really believe that a lot of it has come from this season of slowing down. It is all about perspective. Show Notes: IG: @heylaciejaye IG: @herlifeoutloud Revive + Radiate Podcast laciejaye.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support

Grace Over Grind If you are in business... this book is one you need to read ASAP. It includes a bonus journal, and it is so worth taking the time to read, and really tap into what the Holy Spirit want's you to do in your business. Friends, it is going to look different for everyone. We are each unique, and God has a specific plan for you to do business his way. I promise it is worth it I literally crashed and burned in 5 businesses before I decided to do something different. I love home based businesses, but so many times we see people burning out because they are searching out what every other "successful" person is doing, and they are trying to do it too. These businesses are meant to be a blessing, and I will be the first to tell you, when you start doing it differently, things start to happen in your favor. What is God calling you to do? Take the time to really ask him how he wants you to show up in your business. He is like the greatest business partner of all times! Let him be the CEO and see what happens. I know he has asked me to podcast, blog and work my MIG business. Yes, using social media, but not being consumed by it. He is opening these other platforms up, and it has taken me a minute to get out of the mindset that my business is going to suffer because I am not posting on the GRAM all the time. But I know that when he calls you to do something, listen! I know women who knew they needed to take time off from social media... Where their entire businesses were run, and guess what?? Their businesses did not shut down. God will bless your business when you listen to what he is calling you to do! SHOW NOTES: I always like to remind people to check out your local book store to see if they have the books or can ship them in. We have to support the small businesses. I did link to amazon so you could see what books I am talking about!! Grace Over Grind by Shae Bynes *** My book came with the bonus journal. If you can get the journal.. worth it!

I guess this is how we go from surface level to going deep... Sharing my story on postpartum depression, and the day I wanted everything to STOP! The voices inside my head telling me lies, and making me feel so much shame and guilt. I didn't deserve to be here anymore. Everyone else would be better off without me. I want you to know you are not alone. You are not the only one feeling this, and if you need the permission... Go talk to someone. Get the help you need. There is no guilt or shame in going to therapy or getting on the meds you need to balance things out. You are WORTH it!

I remember going to therapy for the first time after realizing I needed to get help working through a traumatic event with my daughter. I had learned about a therapy called EMDR, and thought even though I wasn't in the military, it might be able to help me. NEWSFLASH.... there are actually a lot of people with PTSD, and it is not just from being in the military. Both men and women have PTSD from rape, sexual assault, childhood neglect, combat, physical attacks, childbirth and abuse. PTSD is short for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, which is a disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event. One thing with PTSD is that you can have triggers, and that is why we are talking more about it on the podcast today. If you want to hear our story you can read it HERE and HERE! I hope you know you are not alone. If something has happened to you please make sure to reach out to someone you trust, and get the help you need. There is no shame in getting help!

What a summer! I knew it was time to take a step away from the podcast to enjoy the summer with my kiddos, and get some clarity on what direction to go with the Her Life Out Loud brand. Action creates clarity, and in this case it was taking action in time with my family. With that being said, I started having this desire to talk real life with real women, and share real stories. After getting some really hard news about someone close to use committing suicide, I knew it was time to get back to the podcast. It was time to break the ice, and break through the surface level conversations so many of us are having. We were created to live life together, to share stories, break free from the past, and say goodbye to shame. Are you ready to live your life out loud?

Have you ever felt like there was a missing link? I have been feeling this way for the last few years. Wondering why things were not working out for me in areas I know I was called in. It was so frustrating because it felt like I was hitting brick wall after brick wall. What was wrong with me. Was I missing something? The missing link Apparently I was missing one of the biggest things that makes me who I am! My FAITH! I have always tried to separate my life, business, and my faith because I didn't want to offend anyone. But the truth is, I wasn't living in alignment. I was taking the deepest part of who I am, the part of me that gives me LIFE, and hoping I could still live what I was called to do. It does't work that way. No wonder I was left feeling hopeless and exhausted. When I decided to just go all in with my faith... opportunities opened up, my business had life in it, and the right people started showing up out of nowhere.

Time to make an IMPACT That thing that has been on your heart. That burning in your soul... That was meant for you to make an impact. It might start off small, but that's the beauty of impact. We do what we are called to do having faith that God does the rest. Start asking yourself where you are playing small. Be honest with yourself, and take a few days to really mediate, pray and journal about it so you can make a shift and move forward. Stop living small I don't know about you, but I would rather live big and be able to be a need meeter, rather than always feeling like I am a victim to not having enough. I was told so much of my life that I needed to be content with where I was. A lot of that could be true, but I also think people get scared in seeing success. They try to keep others living smaller so they don't feel bad. So let's RISE. Let's start living LARGE. Let's light the fire in others so we can all live bigger. I happened to listen to a podcast today from my leader in the industry I joined, and and it happened to be a similar story. Go check her out.

ROOTED verb establish deeply or firmly. I will always believe that God will meet you where you are... I know and feel it more than ever after being on a very lonely journey when I left the church, and wanting to give up on God. I look back now and see how he used people outside the church to love on me. My heart needed exactly that to show me people outside of the church are loving people. They care, they are not always evil, and without thinking twice were there when I felt so knocked down. My heart is to embrace you for who you are. The amazing, beautiful, smart, perfectly made human you were created to be. You don't have to be perfect, you can ask questions, you can be frustrated, but I still believe that deep root and TRUE relationship with God is still rooted within you.

Shout out to all the morning peeps!! Let me tell you how much my morning routine has CHANGED MY LIFE. In this episode I share about my morning routine, and the importance of filling your cup before you start pouring from it the rest of the day. Each morning routine will look different, and takes time planning for it, and deciding what you want from it. Even starting your day 15 minutes before the rest of your house gets up is a great way to get started. It allows you to set your intentions for the day, and control the direction you want your day to go instead of being rudely awakened by others asking for breakfast because they are hungry.

Hey, Her Life Out Loud Podcasters. I started this journey thinking I would be doing two podcasts a week with one of them being a Word Of the Week, but then I got nervous that people would think that idea was weird... So I stopped. Until today!! I decided I like adding a WOW to our weeks, and think it could be a fun way for you to enjoy something to focus on in your own life. This week we are talking about PURIFICATION. At first I was like WTH does that even mean, and then I thought about how there are so many areas in my life that could be detoxed. Lately there have been things that have come up where I end up saying things I regret later, or I am in disbelief that I said them, and so I decided it was time to find the source of what is making act this certain way. It could be friends you need to distance yourself from, social media, or work issues you need to stay out of. It can be easy to get caught up in things, and now you can take the week to detox from or "purify" the negative things that are holding you back from becoming the best version of you! xx Lacie __________________ Follow IG @Laciefigueiredo Follow HLOL IG @Herlifeoutloud --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support

Hey, Her Life Out Loud Podcasters.I started this journey thinking I would be doing two podcasts a week with one of them being a Word Of the Week, but then I got nervous that people would think that idea was weird… So I stopped.Until today!! I decided I like adding a WOW to our weeks, and think it could be a fun way for you to enjoy something to focus on in your own life.This week we are talking about PURIFICATION.At first I was like WTH does that even mean, and then I thought about how there are so many areas in my life that could be detoxed. Lately there have been things that have come up where I end up saying things I regret later, or I am in disbelief that I said them, and so I decided it was time to find the source of what is making act this certain way.It could be friends you need to distance yourself from, social media, or work issues you need to stay out of. It can be easy to get caught up in things, and now you can take the week to detox from or “purify” the negative things that are holding you back from becoming the best version of you!xxLacie __________________Follow IG @LaciefigueiredoFollow HLOL IG @Herlifeoutloud

My guess, YES! I have been thinking about why I feel like I am holding myself back lately, and then some troll on the internet reminded me that I was insecure. I can't say the comment didn't hurt because it totally did, but they literally hit the nail on the head about me being insecure. After crying, I realized they were right. I have been holding back from a lot of things because of my insecurities. The truth is, most of us are holding our lives back from living out loud because we have some sort of insecurities from somewhere. Am I right? In this episode I shared about the trolling, and some stuff I learned recently from Jon Acuff in his book Start. It was an easy read, and it really made me think about things, including how he handled the trolls of the internet. Thank you Jon for prepping me for this day. #realMVP I share how I have been working through my insecurities with bringing them to light, journaling and therapy. There are so many of us that have had some crazy stuff happen in our pasts that create insecurities. I promise you are not alone. Together let's keep moving forward to live out loud. xx Lacie __________ Follow @jonacuff His book: Start Follow me on IG: @laciefigueiredo Follow HLOL on IG: @herlifeoutloud --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support

.... why is everyone buying mass amounts of TP? I guess I shouldn't judge because I would not want you to judge on the amount of cookies I have ate today. Should I start off by letting you know I am coming at you as a SEVEN. Like I only want the positive, I laugh at every meme out there, and I think this is the time to move your life forward for those of you who are ready?! I would also like to note that I totally get the seriousness of COVID-19. My husband and I are currently not sure where we stand with jobs, and we have someone in our lives who is considered highly at risk with this virus. With all that being said, I have a whole new meaning to SAHM since school is closed, which means we will be doing our best at some "school" things, but enjoying the day as it goes. I mean P played outside for 2 hours today because when you go to school, you don't get much time outside. He was living his best life today. But for real, I really think this time can be used in such a powerful way to move yourself forward. Like take the time to really think about the things that bring you JOY. Not money, but JOY!!!! I dare you to ask yourself, and then definitely let me know so I can encourage you and celebrate with you!! I see this time as the perfect opportunity to read personal development books, dive into that side hustle, start writing out the dreams in your soul (I know they are there waiting to be written down), just freaking going for the thing you needed more time to start, spending the extra time with your kiddos, and actually having time to cook dinner for your fam. Or you can zone out on your phone stressing about RONA. A week ago I was telling a friend that I almost wish something would happen so I would have to take time to work on moving myself in the direction I am meant to go, but find myself stuck by the "golden" handcuffs... aka Money. Well, I guess I could thank RONA for shutting down our small town because that wish came true. I know without a doubt some of you can take this time, and set it up to sling shot you forward in whatever areas of life you were wanting to move. Listen, before someone gets all uptight, definitely take this time to get some R+R. You might as well enjoy it while you can. Ok, enough for now. I hope you enjoyed this episode on the Her Life Out Loud Podcast. I would love it if ou could take the time to screenshot a pic and post to your stories so I can see, and hear what you got from this. It also allows me to say THANK YOU!!! Thank you for being a part of this community.

UUGGGHHH. I know that title can be so annoying. So many times we are hearing people talk about enjoying the journey well after they are out of the middle where it can feel like you are stuck. Like will this freaking dream ever come true?!? I felt like a fraud recording this podcast because I don't know all the things about fully enjoying the journey of a big dream that is accomplished. NOPE. But I do know what it feels like to learn to enjoy the journey while in the middle of seeing a big dream come to life, and honestly, while in the middle of WHAT THE F AM I EVEN DOING of another big dream. I definitely talk about both on the podcast. I share my tips on how to start enjoying the journey. Reminding you how it will feel when you can look back and see the lessons learned during those times, and the person you became because of it. So, girl, you have to remember you are not alone. We have been there, and we are going through our own stages of the journey. I promise it's worth it. My biggest takeaway from the journey is having GRATITUDE! Oh my goodness this is a game changer when it comes to seeing things in a new light!! _____________ We just announced out big news over on Chasing the Wild Wonder, which extra inspired me to record this podcast.

Freaking FEAR. There can be such a love/hate relationship with fear. I am currently dealing with facing fear + letting it go in certain areas so I can welcome JOY. I have lived a majority of my life in fear. It has held me captive for so many years, and finally I feel like I am learning to really let it go... FINALLY. But it hasn't been without a lot of work. Today I want to share with you some things I have done to help me move through fear. I can't wait to hear how they help you as well. This may not be in the order I shared on the podcast, but it works for this. 1. JOURNALING Wow. This has been a huge step in helping me face fear. I have been journaling for about 5 years. Being able to be super raw and real with myself as I journal has been a big help in moving through feelings such as fear. I recently heard about Future-Self Journaling with @theholisticpsychologist from a few friends, and I am beyond excited to start. I can't wait to share more with you after I finish my first 30 days. I'll make sure to keep you posted. 2. PODCAST Ok. Just to put it out there.. I am a podcast JUNKIE. I love being able to listen as I workout, clean, drive, and do whatever else I doing. There are so many amazing people in the podcast world, and you can find so many topics... like the one I heard a few weeks ago when I was trying to talk my husband and Parker out of letting Parker go on a huge cross country trip with Ben all because of FEAR. I happened to be listening to Super Soul Conversations with Oprah, and it just so happened to be one with Brene Brown who I LOVE. She was talking about forbidding joy in her life, and let me tell you.. it struck me into the deepest part of my soul. I knew fear held me back a lot of my life, but this was like here it is served on a platter, let's work on this. BAM! So, I encourage you to listen to podcasts if you are dealing with whatever. You can find a ton out there that help you to move forward, and ones that encourage you to keep going. 3. EMDR THERAPY I know not everyone has the resources to go to therapy, which is why I put this last on the list, but I encourage you to reach out to local resources in your area because there are so many times they have money to give to people to get the help they need. That is how I got started, and I can't even begin to describe what it did for me. Therapy. A word I ran from for most my life (more on that another time), but holy smokes it has been the BEST thing that has happened to me this past year. I heard about EMDR from a therapist friend, and so I decided I wanted to meet with someone who would do EMDR on me if I was a fit. I could go on and on about what EMDR has done for me, but today I want to talk about how EMDR therapy helped me to reset my emotions. I worked on ANGER and FEAR. It was so cool how simple it was, and how much it has helped me. Not to mention that it came right when I needed it the most with facing the fear of letting Parker go with Ben on this big trip. If you have a therapist, reach out to them about helping you with your emotions, and anything else you are needing direction with. With all this being said... I can't wait to hear how you are facing your fears. It could be the smallest step or the biggest leap, and I want to hear about it. Make sure to screenshot this episode and post in your stories!! That way I can encourage you to keep on going. Thank you for being a part of this community.

I saw a quote a few weeks ago and I can't get it out of my head. So I have taken some time to ponder on it. "Focus on who you need to become to impact people, instead of what you need to do." – Nadya Melton It is so dang good. In a world where we do more to prove that we are worthy, I think it is time to take a step back and focus more on who we are to create the impact we want in our lives. To all the dreamers out there... we can find a million things we want to do, and really, so many of those things can create an Impact, but what if we took a step back to focus on who we are so we know the direction we are meant to go?! Sit. Be still. Take a moment. Work on the person you want to become. Focus on what is important to you. Unplug, pray, journal, meditate. There are so many times we try to do what isn't meant to happen just yet. Cheers to you + taking the time to just be for a moment. I can't wait to see who you become and make an IMPACT in the lives around you! XO Lacie I would love to hear how this podcast impacted you.

Pretty much I love my therapist. If you have been around here for a minute, you know that therapy has changed my life. I wanted to take a minute and share about GRIEF. I learned a lot about in a therapy session, and it has stuck with me.. so I figured it could be what someone else needs to hear. On this particular day it was like she gave me permission I thought I need to grieve a relationship that didn't happen how I wanted it to. It seemed so weird at first, but once I sat with the idea of grieving the relationship I wanted with my dad as a child, I was able to let it go to enjoy the relationship we have now. Since then I realized with how much life happens and changes, there are so many little moments I have now allowed myself to grieve, and it is so freeing! Even though you don't need permission for anything, here is your permission to grieve the big, the small, and the in between. Keep embracing who you are, and let's create an IMPACT on this world, in our communities, and families. #herlifeoutloud ________ Follow me on IG: @herlifeoutloud I would love to hear from you.

It pretty much trumps the opinions of others.

You know those moments when you share something, and then you get a "God Wink" where it just solidifies what you just talked about, or the direction you are going. It's a heck yes...keep going. I recorded this podcast about showing up. When you show up for yourself... that's where the magic happens. I also believe that when we show up to do what is on our hearts, stirring our curiosity, we end up showing up for other people. It might not be the timing we thought it would be, but we can create a path for others to follow!! Back to the "God Wink" because it makes me laugh. I get done recording and start checking my texts from the day that I missed.. I signed up for @textsfromkac and this is what the message said, "Spending all that time DOUBTING your own abilities has you missing out on NOTICING all the people you ALREADY inspire. Keep showing up. It matters." And that my friend is what I needed to hear. And just maybe, you needed it too. Show up. Even if its's for yourself. You never know who is watching.

I will be the first to say I LOVE what I can do on my cool iPhone. I love that I can stay connected by social media. But we so often look down and forget about the people right in front of our faces! I am talking about family, friends, siblings and parents, BUT what about the people in front of us in the grocery line, coffee shop and postal line? Stop looking down, and start looking at the people surrounding us. I dare you.... the next time you go to the store, look at people in the eyes, say hello, wave.. GASP. It really can feel awkward, but it can make an IMPACT! This community is filled with so many amazing people who make ripples that get bigger, which make waves.

You can still be kind to people without bending over backwards for the people who in all honesty... DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU. From a former people pleaser. I hate when people are mad at me, or didn't like me. A flood of insecurities that come from these people I would find myself trying to change who I was so they would see me differently. And then I realized that I could smile, be kind, but I didn't have to waste energy on people who just suck the life out of me. You GROW. They try to tear you down. You SHINE. They try to darken it. You become a better version of YOU. They think you are acting like you are better than everyone. You get UNCOMFORTABLE. They like to make sure to try and keep everyone comfortable. You start to CHANGE. They remind you of who you were in the past. Let's be real, they like to bring up the NEGATIVE. There will always be energy suckers in our life. I think it is just part of the journey!! Let's find a way to use their energy as a way to fuel you to live your life! _____ Follow me on IG : @laciefigueiredo --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herlifeoutloud/support
