Are you ready for summer? The season is about to change, and despite our wild, wild, world - Mental Health needs to be our TOP priority! Today's episode is about our changing seasons. I help you see the difference between the way you want your life to be and the way it is now. Growth happens through change. As seasons change… so can you.  As the season changes to summer - I'm inviting you to GROW now, rather than wait another season. Schedule a call with me today. https://calendly.com/kelly-9/appleaday-calls?month=2022-05  

May is Mental Health Awareness month. We've all heard the phrase about personal history and problems likened to carrying around baggage. If you've lived any length of time, you have ‘baggage' from past relationships, traumas and disappointments that you ‘carry around' with you. It's inevitable. But, eliminating your baggage is NOT the answer. A healthy mindset doesn't ignore the concerns of our past, we confront them head on, gain perspective and clarity, take measures to heal from the pain, and learn to carry our past as part of an integrated part of who we are and who we are becoming. If this sounds like what you're ready to accomplish in your life, then it's time to make the decision to improve your skills for Successful Badassery!  I'd love to have YOU along on the journey this summer! Isn't it time for a trip while carrying your baggage appropriately with confidence, wisdom and happiness?

Are you a leader? Do you WANT to be a leader? What is a leader?   There are so many questions when it comes to leadership. It's overwhelming, I get it. What if I phrased it like this: Are you successful? Do you want to be successful? What even is success? Many of us switch the terms leader and success back and forth, but sometimes when you are in a leadership position, you aren't entirely sure what you're doing, or if you're even doing it right. That's why I created this 30 day Leadership Challenge. So every day, over the next 30 days, I'll send you something about leadership and what you can implement into your leadership style!
