If you've ever believed that morning routines are to prep us for work, should leave us "productive" or give us an edge, this episode is for you.

5 years ago, my brain stayed locked on work 24/7. I was experiencing chronic headaches, terrible sleep, and a constant case of butterflies in the stomach. In today's episode, I share the 4 powerful shifts that helped me to release the butterflies and stress, finding more joy in each and every day. Tune in to learn what they are!  

In this week's episode, I'm talking to my one and only- and by that, I mean my coach Phoebe Mroczek.  Podcaster, author, and transformational strategist, when I found Phoebe online I knew that she was the coach for me.  What I didn't know is how coaching would take me beyond the achievements I desired, but ask me to evaluate the journey along the way.  Tune in to learn about what it was like to work with a coach, and the differences between individual and group coaching experiences. Speaking of coaching, if today's episode left you energized and ready to start your own self-love journey, I have just the place to start.  Starting July 6 I'll be running two group coaching programs that I am incredibly excited about.  Meaningful Mornings and Nourishing Nights will help you design personalized routines so that you can feel your best morning to night! And guess what?  I'm running an exclusive deal for those that register for both.  If you'd like to learn more, check out this link or email me at dianabfuller@outlook.com

Anyone with a uterus can testify that our bodies and minds are not the same week to week- that's the magic of the menstrual cycle. In today's conversation with Jennifer Fay of Rooted Ground, she teaches us about what's going on internally during those different phases, how to care for ourselves during each of those times, and also discusses the power of knowing our bodies.

In the last episode, I talked about the emotional roller coaster that goes with a global pandemic; now, what happens when you put several together people in a home while on that roller coaster ride? Today I talk about just that topic with Shannon Moyer-Szemenyei, alternative holistic counselor, artist, doula, and author.  How can we make communication a little less fuzzy during this delicate time? Tune in to learn more. *Please note: this episode was planned and recorded prior to the current racial injustices and protests; thus, it only touches on our personal experiences with the health pandemic and quarantine.  As a podcaster, I intend to amplify black voices on the topic of racial injustices and will continue to share resources from black speakers and wellness practitioners.  * You can find Shannon's website here, and follow along on social media @moyer_and_co There's still time to donate and attend tomorrow's event, featuring Kelvin Young and Erica Wilcox.  100% of proceeds will benefit BEAM.  Please click this link below to learn more and register.

This pandemic has flipped life (as we knew it) upside down.  While the way the impact affects us can look different, most of us are experiencing a similar roller coaster: the grief cycle.  Grief does not just happen after a death, but any change or end to something that played a large role in our lives.  From routines changing to separation, we've had a lot of change in the past 2 months. In today's episode I talk about why we're grieving, what that looked and felt like for me, and what lessons I've gotten from all of this.  

This week I chat with Jessica Rylee, Transformational Life Coach. On the coattails of last week's episode, we continue to chat about the moon phases and how they might influence our self-care. This episode, we dive specifically on the practices that can be done during the different phases to get in tune with ourselves and the energy of the world around us. At the beginning of this pandemic, we had to give ourselves a little grace.  Grocery stores had empty shelves, gyms and studios closed, and our schedules were turned on their heads. Understandably, our daily habits and commitments took a back seat while we sorted life out.   The good news is- getting back to our healthy habits isn’t rocket science – It’s actually psychology.  On May 22, psychologist and coach, Diana Fuller, will break down the research so you can get back on track and recommit to your physical and mental health goals.  You will walk away with an effective plan to help you stay healthy and happy. This is a 60-minute interactive event on Zoom.  Links will be sent to you upon registration.  Register at this link

  Have you found yourself fascinated by the moon and it's phases? There's a reason for it! Particularly for women, the phases of the moon can mimic the phases in our own life cycles- information we can use to decide how to best take care of our minds and bodies. Nichole of Modern Saint Living joins me to discuss this lunar logic.
