Today's episode is a new perspective on motivation and consistency that I think you'll find helpful as you move forward in life and business :)  It isn't about being CONSTANTLY motivated, but CONSISTENTLY knowing what you need to re-motivate yourself, when your light dims. I hope you enjoy the analogy. lead-her.com @leadher_inc #theleadhershow

Today I'm talking about leadership roles and what you should focus on before you plan to lead anybody else.  This lesson has served me in my corporate career and I think it continues to serve me as I lead my team at LeadHer Publishing. The answer may not be what you think.  lead-her.com @leadher_inc #theleadhershow

Today I'm sharing one of the most profound realizations I've made in my career as an entrepreneur and as I've navigated a massive transformation over the past two years.  I'm sharing the ONE THING that helps me feel CONFIDENT AF no matter what I'm doing in life or business. It helps me feel good in my skin, it helps me go after my goals with self-trust and high self-esteem, and it has completely shifted my energy over the past 2 years.  GET EXCITED.  lead-her.com @leadher_inc

Today's show is all about perspective.  Have you ever received feedback from someone that wasn't the most positive? Or maybe, YOU'VE had to give someone else feedback that wasn't ideal? We're flipping the way we look at giving and receiving feedback, and I'm sharing some times when I felt the sting of negative feedback, but then realized it allowed me to make INCREDIBLY positive shifts in my business, making me better in the long run.

Today I tried to post on instagram about 8 stories talking about this topic and it wouldn't let me post. IS THAT A SIGN!? Maybe. Today's episode is all about titles/labels and removing them to find out WHO YOU REALLY ARE. If you do the activity at the end, post and tag me somewhere! LOVE YA!

Today I'm talking about ENERGY! This is something I have talked about before and will probably talk about again because... IT'S SO IMPORTANT! YOU are in control of your own energy. You cannot control what comes into your space ALL the time, but you can navigate how you respond to what's thrown at you. Here's how I do it to keep my energy squeaky clean as much as possible. Resources: https://instagram.com/alignbydesignhd https://instagram.com/karirussellcoaching https://mybodygraph.com https://jovianarchive.com 

Do you consider yourself a leader if you don't have a team of people reporting to you? If you weren't "appointed" a leadership role by someone else? If you don't have a title that indicates leadership? Are you guaranteed to be a good leader because you're a manager of people? Not necessarily. Let's talk about this.

WE ARE ALL ENERGY. Just saying. There's no reason you can't manipulate yours to attract the things you want.  People and things I mention: lead-her.com/selfpublishplanner My FB Group: facebook.com/groups/leadhercollective If you want to start a podcast: stefaniegass.com/momfidentaf Coaches: instagram.com/karirussellcoaching instagram.com/alignbydesignhd instagram.com/alphafemme instagram.com/xogingy instagram.com/kathleencameron_formygirls Get your Human Design Chart: JovianArchive.com

(...and listen to the episode to understand WHY I'm making this statement!)  It's not all about CONSTANT IMPROVEMENT FOREVER. It's about EMBRACING +++ EVOLVING +++ EMBRACING AGAIN +++ EVOLVING +++ TAKING A BREAK +++ EMBRACING +++ ACCEPTING +++ GROWING +++ ACCEPTING AGAIN Free resources here: lead-her.com/all-the-things IG: instagram.com/theleadhercollective Facebook Group: facebook.com/groups/leadhercollective

If you're anything like me, you have spent most of your life getting cozy with TANGIBLE planning - agendas, planners, notebooks, etc. I have officially made the transition to DIGITALLY planning my life and business, and it has changed the game for me in terms of staying on top of EVERYTHING I need to take care of without missing a beat.  If you want to access the blog post/show notes for this episode, click here for the written version AND a helpful, colourful visual of my own personal google calendar.

Today I have an amazing guest on the show, and we're talking about how we evolve as women when we become mothers, and how to get in tune with our true (new) selves - because motherhood forever changes us!  Jen Hoffmeister is a business owner, author (Self Love Club V2 and the upcoming MOMMING HARD!) and mother of two busy boys, and she is also a recent widow navigating single parenthood and figuring out how to best take care of her kiddos while she also takes time to care for herself.  Find Jen: https://instagram.com/boymomonthemove 

Hello friends! Today we're talking about becoming a mompreneur / entrepreneur with kids / mom boss - and why I quit my corporate job in lieu of working for myself, at home, building a business and a life of freedom and flexibility.  If you're curious about starting your own business, or aspire to move yourself from corporate-hood to mompreneur, then this may be the episode that kicks you into high gear! 

Today's episode is very raw, open and vulnerable and deals with some difficult life experiences of one of my listeners, Amanda Wood. Amanda is opening up about her experience with miscarriage and pregnancy loss, and even though "awareness month" for PAIL is in October, we're continuing the conversation in an effort to help normalize this kind of dialogue.  While there's no way to make any experience with PAIL easier, we can at least shed light on the fact that you are not alone in this journey, and opening up about it will help more moms to feel they aren't the only ones going through it.

Today I'm having an open, vulnerable, and candid discussion with my friend and Momfident Media co-author Sharana Ali. She is the CEO and founder of BOSS The Six Edition, and is a single parent navigating the (sometimes) confusing waters of co-parenting. Sharana has learned a LOT as she's gone through this stage in her life and as part of her business, she believes is creating space for vulnerable and raw conversations. The real stuff, not the small talk. To find out more about Sharana, find her on Instagram and check her #linkinbio for exclusive offers and freebies!

Today I'm chatting with Melinda Lemay, CEO and Creative Director of Picks and Giggles, a company that connects local shoppers with local businesses, traditionally in LIVE vendor shows several times per year.  And then... #COVID. Melinda had to figure out what to do with her business that was primarily an IRL experience. She had to find a way to continue supporting local/small businesses and didn't know what to do for several months.  And then... enter the #UnboxedWishbook. Check out more about this holiday shopping STAPLE that will allow you to dig into your gift-buying from the comfort of your own home all while supporting small and locally owned businesses.

WELL. Today's episode is a NEAT rant recorded while I was on a long road trip recently. I'm talking about the damaging effect on constantly complimenting weight loss, and why it's starting to become a problem we're perpetuating when we constantly talk about our bodies in order to justify that we accept them. I'd love to know what you think.  Sending love always, C

Hi friend, today's episode is about something that's thrown around as a casual evening activity, but is actually something worth talking about and that is... Mommy Wine Culture.  What is this "Wine Culture" and why is it so common for moms to joke and laugh about how they can't possibly handle parenting unless they have a glass of wine in hand? Is it dangerous to promote the act of drinking as a suggested coping mechanism? How much wine is too much wine? All my questions AND MORE are answered in today's show with my friend, author, BSw, MAPP and MSc in Psychology and Neuroscience of Mental Health Jaime Booth Jenkins. Find Jaime: @practicallyawesome

Today I'm chatting with Therapist Eli Weinstein about the difficulties of parenthood, strategies for lessening the "blow" (just kidding, kinda), killer communication techniques, and why therapy isn't just for broken people or people who have been through challenging or traumatic situations.  Find Eli on Instagram, (@elivation_therapist and @thedudetherapist) and on the WWW at elivation.org 

Today my guest is content creator, author, YouTuber, mom-boss & multiple biz-owner Milli Fox (@millifox; millifox.com) Milli and I became fast friends in 2018; first meeting IRL, then expanding our friendship virtually, and now being, like, actual real friends. We're discussing confidence and all the underlying "ingredients" to confidence including popular buzzwords like "self love" but also the lesser talked about "self-worth", "self-trust", "self-compassion", and "self-esteem."

So today I'm talking a little about an instagram post I shared recently that re-frames the way we look at "giving up" and asks you to question when giving up IS in fact the right thing to do. There are LOTS of things worth giving up, and the fact that you "quit" something doesn't mean you're a failure or "don't have what it takes." Let me know what you think about this one :) 

There is one very important thing missing from your life, I can ALMOST guarantee it!  Listen to this episode to hear the thing you NEED to be doing, ESPECIALLY if you're a mom and you're over 30.

HEYO! It's story time on the momfidence podcast! I have found something that's allowing me the space to PLAY and GROW on the daily - and I want to challenge YOU to try it too! Today I'm digging into a confidence strategy that is basically guaranteed to work. I've talked about it briefly before on the show but here I'm giving you a real live example of how it can be build into your life and how it can impact even more than just your confidence.  IF YOU TAKE THE CHALLENGE... TAG ME!! @momfidentaf 

Have you been scheduling, planning, working out, eating, and generally following a routine that ISN'T right for you?

I hope you could read the sarcasm in my episode title, today's show is NOT going to show you how to please everybody, but instead, show you how it's important that you actually DON'T please everybody - and just do what the f*ck you want that makes you happy. Life, business, parenting.. you're always going to bother someone. Just make sure you don't bother yourself! 

You've heard of your IQ, but today's episode is all about your EQ - your emotional "quotient" or your ability to adapt to things in your life with ease or resistance depending on how emotionally intelligent you are. Great news - your EQ can be shaped and shifted, so if you're very unaware of it at this moment, THAT'S OKAY! My dear friend Adrienne Aitken is breaking down Emotional Intelligence in today's episode and showing you why it's important and how you can use it to your advantage.

#YOUDOYOU, mama!  Today I'm digging into the fact that my brand has the f-word all over it, my book has f*ck right in the title, and I typically drop f-bombs all over my podcast and in regular conversations... and I'm not ashamed about it. I know some are really against swearing in front of their kiddos, but I actually think otherwise. No judgement to you (and please don't you dare judge me, either!) as we're all doing this life our own way and you're entitled to say whatever you fucking want

Hey friend!  Today we're talking about MOTIVATION and breaking down where it comes from and how you can manipulate it YOURSELF. Motivation is malleable and as a human, you have the ability to heavily influence your own motivation. So why aren't we all highly motivated, ALL the time?  Well, there's more to it than just "feeling motivated." This episode breaks that down. *This episode is audio pulled from a monthly call inside KeepFit Women's Online Fitness Program MEMBERFIT where I am not only program director of the FIT MINDSET component, but also a fitness coach creating 20-minute workouts you can do from home.

This episode was recorded in April but (OOPS) I forgot to fully schedule it out. So, consider this a bonus episode. Today I'm sharing some details about where MOMFIDENT AF bas been, where we are today and where we're going in the future. I'm talking a little about how I landed where I am today and how I hope to elevate women's voices in the future.  THANKS FOR WAITING AROUND FOR NEW CONTENT

THIS may be one of my all-time favourite episodes and project ideas - I asked YOU to be willing to share what's helping you through these unprecedented times dictated by Covid-19, and not only are there incredible and varying tips here, there's also some humour and lightheartedness that you'll just simply E N J O Y.  Sit back and laugh.  XO

Hey friend, On today's show I'm sharing an audio from a video I took explaining how I feel about what's going on in the world right now - this is an important one and I hope you'll listen all the way through.  Hearing about what's going on is hard. Trying to figure out how you can help is hard. None of it is as hard as racism, and this isn't going away. I urge you to do your part. #blacklivesmatter  Resources mentioned: White Fragility Book: https://www.amazon.ca/White-Fragility-People-About-Racism/dp/0807047414 Article about White Privilege: https://www.yesmagazine.org/opinion/2017/09/08/my-white-friend-asked-me-on-facebook-to-explain-white-privilege-i-decided-to-be-honest/

Heeeeey babes! Today I'm talking about IFFFFF you should/can start a podcast and how to go about doing it SUCCESSFULLY! I was speaking about this during the #CEOSocial put on by my friend Kari @goalsandgrapes - and I spoke both about starting a podcast AND whether you should/can self-publish a book - so today I'm digging into podcasting and in the next episode I'll discuss publishing!
