    You have the duty, the purpose, the right to create the life you desire.Have you ever heard the phrase "live life on purpose"? It's a great phrase with lots of meaning. A purpose driven life means you aren't wasting your time, your life away. You seek out your purpose and you seek to fulfill it.Another quote that John and I expound upon is the idea that it is the duty of the enlightened to enlighten the unenlightened. Think about that. The student becomes the master and finds new students and the process moves on throughout the ages. That's how information has been passed down and transcended time.Another necessity for living a purpose driven life is to become self-aware, and to be receptive to new info. Contrary to popular belief, you don't know everything...neither do I and that's OK! In fact, knowing that you don't know everything can help you be open to new ideas and possibilities. The danger lies in being completely close-minded.Live the life you desire.If you want to hear more from John Mendez, check him out on his website https://www.walktowealth.comThis is all part of living a holistic life.

It is filtering out what we've been conditioned to believe about ourselves and learning to overcome the true source of our struggles within...fear of judgement or rejection.Jean Tien is a reformed corporate climber that fumbled her way through life, her words, until she realized that "happily ever after doesn't automatically happen when you start to make more money or climb the corporate ladder. She says that following this age-old formula for success didn't work because it wasn't allowing her to be herself."In this episode we unpack the success formula that Jean developed for overcoming her fears and living unapologetically authentic.

    Be Impeccable with your word!Don't take anything personally!Don't assume!Do your best!Those are the four agreements from the book "The Four Agreements".  Today, my good friend and your podcast psychotherapist, Shane Murphy, and I discuss each agreement in depth.These agreements are integral to mental health. Mental health isn't talked about enough. How to improve your mental health is the purpose of this episode. We get wrapped up in anxiety. When we don't follow the four agreements, anxiety grows within us and affects everything. We make assumptions because we are not thinking rationally. Anxieties lead to panic and fear. 90% of your anxiety comes from inaccurate assumptions.We talk about how you can flip your emotions when you are about to take something personal.And we delve into that buzzword of the last few years - being triggered.Why do we get triggered?Where does it come from? We delve into this and how to take ownership of your thoughts and your life. I highly recommend this episode.  Shane now has a radio show on Cry104 FM and started a program called Creative Pathways - a way for people to connect with creativity and psychotherapy.As always, I am available for coaching and consulting and should you need to go even deeper into traumas and deep mental health work, I recommend Shane.

    Thoughts create emotions.

There is power in your breath. Pause, and breathe. Listen to the inhale and exhale.

    Change judgmental phrases to "That's interesting!" It takes the steam out of the negative thought and allows you to stay positive mentally. That's one of the many things I learned as Julianne Bosch and I discussed everything under the sun about international travel, family life while an expat, and how to be a CEO and a mom/wife at the same time.Julianne is a "Mom CEO" and a life and career coach, author of "How a Mother Took Her First Steps on the Moon". Juggling between family and work is hard for men, even harder for women. One of the main ways you can find fulfillment as you are attempting to have both is to narrow down your life. Don't try to do it all. Make choices and stick to what you plan.Joy is found in purpose. Find your purpose.Recognize where you are today. You're not alone in overthinking, overdoing, and overstressing. Breathe and just take stock of where you are today.Life is complicatedly simple. Think of it--life, family, work--as an elephant you have to eat. Just do it in small bites, one bite at a time.When stressed and overwhelmed, go back to the basics. Have a set of non-negotiables in life and strip it down to the basics so that you have a place to fall back to when you've taken on too much.Brainstorm crazy ideas. Use them to break "my way or the highway" madness. Figure out worst case scenarios. etc.Finally, when you set your intention based on your non-negotiables, things start clicking.Julianne's book mirrored her life and practice. It's a book of advice for parents and others about taking ownership and living a life of intention.You can find her at https://juliannebosch.com; or https://mothersfirststep.comFor those of you that are looking for a coach or consultant for your career, business, or life - I offer a free initial consult to see if we'd be a good fit.
