Mom Inspired Show with Amber Sandberg

Do you find that you want to just run away from your feelings hoping they will go away? Today, we have author Jennifer Rurka on the show to talk about mental chatter and how it can feel so overwhelming.  Do you find that you feel exhausted with all that talk that happens in your mind, and wanting to push those feelings away?  Jennifer shares with us her story on how she healed herself from past traumas and how transformation is possible.  One topic that really stood out to me is when she shared with us that it is good for us to feel the feeling and to exhausting the feeling even though we fight that and think we need to do the opposite.   Do you feel stuck, do you want to leave counting calories and dieting behind?  Do you feel you like you can achieve so much in life but your weight loss? Do you feel like you spend so much energy thinking about how to lose weight, what to eat, and if you can even keep the weight off once you get to goal? I know for me that was the case before 2019 when I lost over 50lbs and kept it off and I want to help you lose weight the way that I did! I want to help you figure out why the weight is a symptom for something else going in your life, cause did you know, that weight gain is not usually based off of hunger issues, its not being fulfilled in other areas of life so we go for food for a quick dopamine hit or a quick fix. So, if you want to figure out how live life without worrying about what you are going to eat at the party, when you are on vacation and when you are staying in other people's homes without gaining weight then this session is for you. How it works is you jump on a 30 min. mini coaching session with me, we come up with a plan right then and there so you can implement it the moment we get off our zoom call. If you decide that you want to work that plan with me and have that weekly accountability for several months and dive deep to figure out what is really holding you back we can do that too. But there is no pressure to do that, if you just want to jump on and chat with me and get a plan to get you started that is perfect. These mini coaching sessions are my way to give back to you guys, so I hope you take advantage of it. So if you are interested in more details  you can DM me at Mom Inspired Living or if you know this is something you have been waiting for grab your spot at Mominspiredshow.com/coaching, if you don't see a date and time that works for you, DM me Mom Inspired Living or email me at amber@mominspiredshow.com If you loved this episode make sure to check out the episode I did on trying something new even if it's scary: https://mominspiredshow.com/trying-something-new-even-if-its-scary-amber-sandberg-298/ Guest Info: Jennifer Rurka Website: https://www.jenniferrurka.com/

She shares with us why she wanted to homeschool even though her family weren't all on board.  Julia also dives into what it she has learned in her marriage and as a marriage coach and some tips on what you can do to make your relationship better. She shares with us how it can be easy to get so busy with life we forget about each other but that it's never too late. One topic that stood out to me is when she said that "when you don't have communication you can feel lonely in a marriage, you have to learn to actually listen. " So busy with life we forget about each other but its never too late.  Hear what we have to say about this topic and more on the podcast.

Do you feel like you spend so much energy thinking about how to lose weight, what to eat, and if you can even keep the weight off once you get to goal? I know for me that was the case before 2019 when I lost over 50lbs and kept it off and I want to help you lose weight the way that I did! I want to help you figure out why the weight is a symptom for something else going in your life, cause did you know, that weight gain is not usually based off of hunger issues, its not being fulfilled in other areas of life so we go for food for a quick dopamine hit or a quick fix. So, if you want to figure out how live life without worrying about what you are going to eat at the party, when you are on vacation and when you are staying in other people's homes without gaining weight then this session is for you. How it works is you jump on a 30 min. mini coaching session with me, we come up with a plan right then and there so you can implement it the moment we get off our zoom call. If you decide that you want to work that plan with me and have that weekly accountability for several months and dive deep to figure out what is really holding you back we can do that too. But there is no pressure to do that, if you just want to jump on and chat with me and get a plan to get you started that is perfect. These mini coaching sessions are my way to give back to you guys, so I hope you take advantage of it.

Are you avoiding going after what you truly want because you are afraid of being uncomfortable? Today, I am talking about what it looks like to be uncomfortable staying the same even if you think it's comfortable and why we avoid making changes because we perceive it will feel more uncomfortable.  I share my story of when I lost over 50lbs in 2019 and how I had to decide that in order to get to my goals I had to be ok with being uncomfortable. What I like to tell my coaching clients that the truth was, I was uncomfortable already where I was at. I was uncomfortable in the clothes I was wearing, not being able to wear what I wanted, not being able to move the way I was used too, being uncomfortable not feeling like myself. So I knew that I could stay uncomfortable staying the same or move in the direction I wanted too even if that brought on a different kind of uncomfortableness.  Hear what we have to say about this topic and more on the podcast.

I want to encourage you to resist putting your foot on the brakes of your goals and be intentional this summer. Not only with your own goals but also to help your kids set goals.  Summer is great because it can give us more breathing room, but with the lack of structure kids can easily get bored. If we help them set goals, they can can work toward something when they are feeling unmotivated. In this episode I discuss how to set up the goals, how to help guide your kids without deciding for them what their goals should be and some fun categories to consider as your goals.  Hear what I have to say about this topic and more on the podcast. Do you feel stuck, do you want to leave counting calories and dieting behind?  Do you feel you like you can achieve so much in life but your weight loss? Do you feel like you spend so much energy thinking about how to lose weight, what to eat, and if you can even keep the weight off once you get to goal?  I can help you tune into your body's hunger and fullness without feeling deprived.  I can teach you not only how to lose weight for good but how to sustain that weight loss.  So if you are tired of being tired and not losing weight then you are in the right place. I will give you tips that you can start using the moment we get off the call.

Do you feel like you get paralyzed when it comes to taking action? Today I am talking all about why we don't take action and get the results we want. Have you ever found yourself constantly busy but you're not productive?  It's so easy to get caught up in passive action, prepping to "do the thing" vs actually doing it.  Do you find yourself listening to podcasts, reading books, taking courses but not taking the time to implement what you learned? This is called passive action, if you want to start getting results we have to take massive action but many times this feels too scary so we stay in passive action and tell ourselves that we are doing the work that needs to happen to get our results. Also, I talk about being a perfectionist and how that can slow the process down or even paralyze you from even taking action.  Are you a person that just preps, and preps and preps waiting for the perfect moment to start?

Do you find you start and stop your your weight loss journey? You decide you are so over talking about your weight, and so this is going to be it, you are finally going to to do it. You buy the books, you get the food, you buy a journal to write in, you have a plan, colored pens and you are ready to go. Week two comes around the corner and you are over everything you set out to do. Maybe you have been working out hard and feel too sore and can't keep going so you want to give up.  Maybe you expected to work out really hard and lose weight and you have yet to see the scale move and you feel defeated. You are done making eggs, eating veggies and protein, you are so bored out of your mind that you can't see yourself doing this one more day. Next thing you know, you are going through the drive through of your favorite place, telling yourself that this is too hard and it's not going to work anyway.  When we want to solve our problems with food this is where we want to start quitting.  We want to numb out, escape our feelings, and we think that our tried and true foods will help us avoid that discomfort. But what happens after we have eaten those foods to try so solve our problems is we start to feel guilt or shame for feeling like we let ourselves down which then we want to go eat more to run away from those uncomfortable feelings.  When we try to solve our problems with food, it only last for a little bit that relief before that rush of thoughts that come in and say  I can never stick to eating plans, I am never going to reach my goals.  So what makes us want to stop,  what is different from yesterday to today?

What could you do today that your future self would thank you for? Today I talk all about how to envision your future self and why it's so important when it comes to achieving your goals. When you think about this question it requires us to be willing to think about it from our future self. Sometimes it's too hard for people to think too far out, so I want you to think about a time frame that stretches you a little bit but not too far out that it feels too vague. You might be wondering why do we want to live from our future self, well many times we live from out past self and it gets us stuck and we can't move forward. When you think about where you want to be in the future, you have to be careful to not let the past paralyze you. Just know living from your future self can feel uncomfortable at times, your brain is going to want to throw a fit and say this is dumb, this doesn't matter but I want to encourage you to keep showing up as your future self, change the decisions that you are making and keep showing up.

Do you find that you have no time to create white space in your life? Today I have author Jinny Uppal on the show to talk about things we can do to create a better quality of life.  We chat about how our society is all about hustling and that social media has glamorized that behavior to make it the norm and how damaging that can be. What we don't realize is that it leaves us burnt out and running on empty.  Jinny shares with us what she learned while writing her book and taking the steps she discusses on this episode are so easy to practice, starting today. Jinny explains to us what reflective thinking is and why it's such a powerful tool in our life and once we see the benefits we won't want to stop.

Have you ever wondered if you are living your life to your fullest potential? Do you ever feel like you are playing too small? You see people out there doing big things and you know you have it in you to do something but you feel too scared? Today I am going to talk to you guys about figuring out your "second act"! Sometimes it's easy to over look what your talents are, and it can leave you feeling like you don't have anything special to offer. But if you can think about the things other people compliment you on or ask for your help with that will give you some insight to what you may be good at.  It's so much easier for others to see our talents then it is for us to really see them. Also 2021 was not as easy as most of us had hoped for.  You might feel like your progress got stalled or maybe you didn't even begin what you were hoping to start, maybe you feel like you even went backwards but I wanted to encourage you to think differently! What if we weren't "starting over", what if we were just picking back up where we left off.... wouldn't that have a different feeling to think that way?  What if we could just start saying "let's just meet ourselves where were at, right now."

Do you feel like you have to be super restrictive to get to your goal for weight loss and money? Today I have Germaine Foley on the show and we break down how she got herself out of 200k of debt and how I lost over 50lbs.  Not only did we accomplish those things, we did it without being super restrictive.  So, today we wanted to share with you what we teach our coaching clients so that you can start your new year feeling hopeful. One big mistake people make is that they think whenever they reach their goal, it will be better then where they were. What we want to tell you, is that you can be happy now, no matter how much money you have or how much you weigh, you have the power to choose to be happy on your way to your goals.  Many people get stuck in this cycle that they can only be happy once they achieve their goals and until then life is better there vs. here.  Also, we share our experiences and how we didn't have to give up our life to go after what we wanted. Does this sound too good to be true?  Hear what we have to say about this topic and more on the podcast.

Do you find that you get stressed out for the holidays vs. being excited for them? Today, Jenny Stemmerman from Your Life Rocks and I talk about how it can be so easy to get stressed out as moms when it comes to the holidays.   This episode is more of a conversation between friends that we wanted to include you in on and just share our experiences and most likely you will be able to relate to one of us if not both.  We discuss how we try to keep things simple but special and how we have similarities but also different approaches when it comes to the holidays and what that looks like.  One topic that stood out to me is how do we prioritize other family members and what they want for their holidays.  Hear what we have to say about this topic and more on the podcast.   Hey, have you grabbed your free copy of  "Getting back into your routine" worksheet?  If not, make sure to do so!
