I wasn't sure what to call this episode because I'm talking about many different things, but the core message of today is get out of your comfort zone and start believing that your dreams are possible. Dream bigger than you ever have, learn the skills you need to learn, and realize that all the successful people in life were exactly where you are at one point in time. We all have the same insecurities and doubts. Believe in your dreams, take action, and make it happen!
In this episode, I talk about the importance of starting messy and scared, but also the next important step on improving yourself and what you offer. We want to put mediocre stuff out in the beginning, but it shouldn't stay that way. We should be getting better every time we put something new out.

In today's episode, I'm sharing a day when I was feeling like a complete failure and freaking out over something that I felt I had failed at. It wasn't until after recording this and freaking out for 2 days that I realized I hadn't failed at all and there was nothing wrong with my product. We all go through days where it feels like we aren't getting anywhere and our dreams are so far away, but it's important to keep going. The only failure is giving up.
In today's episode, I talk about letting go of the things in your past that no longer make sense. Letting go of things in your business that aren't working, letting go of old identities that you have had in the past, and letting go of things that are just holding you back in life.
In this episode, I talk about finding your passions early on in life. We knew who we were at birth, but through societal conditioning and being told our dreams are unrealistic, we lost who we were along the way. It's time to go back to your childhood and remember who you are. No dream is too big!
In today's episode, I talk about getting the legal stuff out of the way before diving head-first into your business. Make sure what you are doing is legal, get the proper licensing, and don't be afraid to ask for help!
In today's episode I talk about how I have been addicted to many different things and how passion can turn into obsession. I'm all about living your passion, but we do need to set boundaries and not let our passion take over our entire lives.
This episode is the first episode in the Live your passion podcast and my favorite episode so far because it feels the most authentic to me. In this episode, I talk about why I changed the podcast and don't just want to talk about homesteading anymore.
Today, I am sharing what happened at my first big event I ever sold at. I am also leaning towards shifting this podcast and talking more about manifestation, spirituality, and personal development.

In today's episode, I talk about how I have failed so many times these past few years, but with determination, passion for what I do, and picking myself back up every time, I have been able to see my failures as stepping stones to my success. When you are in the failure, it doesn't feel this way. I still beat myself up over it, I still get depressed over it, but I'm learning to move forward from these moments faster and use these so called "failures" as learning experiences on what not to do so I can then take a step in the right direction. Enjoy the episode!

Dream big, take action, do what lights you up, and never stop believing in yourself!
