Since my mom passed a little over a year and a half ago, I've been looking at how I can make sure I'm living a life that maximizes my gifts, talents and purpose. Life is too precious to spend it in any other way. It was during this self-reflection that I realized that were some areas that I simply needed to "get out". In this episode, I'm sharing the 5 signs that indicate you may need to "get out" - whether it's related to your business, career, finances or relationships.

When we finished this interview, we looked at each other for a moment - silent. And then we both said "Wow". We knew we just shared something truly special. Something game changing. Something that had the ability to create major shifts for people who took heed to the insights, advice and lessons. There's no doubt that we all have a "great work" in us. And it's not just about our business or career. It's about how we live with purpose in every area of life. But doing our great work requires focus, prioritizing, clarity, a strategy and a plan. If you've ever found yourself challenged in any of these areas, there could be one simple, but powerful, concept that can totally change the game for you. In this episode, I talk with Patrice Washington, Founder of Redefining Wealth, about the necessity of choosing. Choosing your focus. Choosing your priorities. Choosing your goals. Choosing your authentic path. We also explore the concept we both use in our own lives when it comes to being able to stand firmly in your choices so you can give your time, energy, effort and commitment to fully achieving your goals, vision and purpose. Patrice will also be speaking on our Success Panel at the upcoming Get RADICAL Women's Conference, March 20-22 in Atlanta, GA.

There's two parts to setting and achieving goals. There's the formula and then there's the method. Once you understand the difference between the two, the path to the next level of success you're looking for becomes clearer. In this episode, I share the importance of having both in play when it comes to making advances in your career, business, finances and personal goals.
One of the best questions to ask yourself is: Am I living an "almost" life or my "utmost" life.

On a coast to coast flight, I watched the HBO series Being Serena.

We’re a few weeks into the new year, and statistics tell us that most people have already fallen off from their new year resolutions. Regardless of your goals, there are barriers and hurdles that may hold you back from succeeding. One of the key components to remember when working on your transformation is that it's not something you do, it's something in your mind. The truth is, to create change, to reach a big goal, you must experience a mindset shift. A new way of thinking, believing and behaving. And that’s a process. In this episode, I’m sharing the 5 steps that lead you to transformation. That takes you from wanting something – to having something. That takes you from dreaming about it – to experiencing it. That takes you from creating goals and vision boards to actually having it come to pass. That’s what the 5 stages are all about. You should be able to achieve your goals, expect to keep them and excel beyond them. Listen to the end for the opportunity to obtain the tools you’ll need to have a real mindset shift and take serious action steps to reach your next level of success while having the ultimate in support and accountability.

There's no doubt that life will have challenges. Things will happen that will get you off track - loss of a loved one, loss of job, financial challenges, health issues - and you may wonder how you will make it through. I've been experiencing some life changing challenges the past couple of months and I've examined what has been helping me during this difficult time. I call it "preemptive preparation". This has been a key component in how I've been dealing with my recent losses. And if you're in the midst of loss or challenges, I believe this concept can help you too. I would love to hear your take-a-ways from this podcast. You share on twitter - @doreenrainey or in our Facebook Group - RADICAL Success Tribe.

In the last couple of weeks, I’ve been thinking quite a bit about intentions. I’ve come to realize that while intentions are important – the ultimate goal is to move from intentions to action. We often intend to do so many things, whether it’s about our finances, our career, our relationships, but we failed to realize is that not every intention is worthwhile. Unless we commit to our intentions and actually take action, our intentions sometimes mean nothing. Though having intentions are important, it is not equally as important when you really act on it. In this latest podcast episode, I explore the value of intentions and the role it plays in each area of our lives. I’m also challenging you to do a “gut check” on whether your intentions can be defined as “authentic” or “inauthentic”. Enjoying this podcast?

This episode is dedicated to my mom, Alice Smith. I'm sharing the top 5 life lessons I learned from her as we celebrate her life. Alice Lear Smith July 16, 1942 – July 20, 2018 Alice Lear (Rock) Smith is the oldest of four children to Violia Frances Windborne and James Jacob Rock of Woodford, VA. She was born July 16, 1942 in Washington, DC. She was her high school valedictorian, received her Associates Degree from Northern Virginia Community College and her BA from Potomac College, majoring in accounting. She was married to Elbert Allen Smith for 56 years, and raised two fiercely independent daughters. She loved her co-workers from PSI, Del-Tech, Stafford University, and the City of Bowie. Alice loved to travel. Paris, London, cruises to the Mediterranean, Hawaii, and Aruba were a few of her destinations. In her mid-twenties, she spent decades as a member of a bowling league, then in her 50’s became a member of the Women of Whist, where card playing was serious business. She was preceded in death by one brother, James Rock. She is survived by her husband of 56 years, Elbert Allen Smith, her two daughters Sandra Gammons (Charles Gammons) and Doreen Rainey (Reginald Rainey), her two grandsons, Shemuel and Jakob; a granddog Monte, and her partner in crime, her caregiver for the past two years, and dedicated sister-in-law, Nevada Smith.

Where are you in your life right now? Your mindset plays a vital role in leading you to the life you have today. So if you think that your life is just a result of an uncontrollable fate, then, think again. This episode is all about managing your mindset in order to experience a fundamental change in your life. What you do daily results to a positive and optimistic mindset that allows you to live the life you desire. We are often made to believe that we only have one choice, that we are obliged to give up something just to keep something else, and that we are not allowed to have all the options. This is not true. Remember, you don’t need to live in the land of OR where you need to choose one over the other. If you want both, then have them both. How? By choosing AND.
