    Hi loves! In today's episode, Abbie and I discuss the vital topic of helping a woman in need leave an abusive relationship. Although Abbie didn't know this woman personally, she was quick to step in when approached for assistance. We talked about the importance of having a plan and "backup" in case things go awry. On the day of the departure, Abbie met the woman at her house to help her gather her belongings and leave safely. Thankfully, this woman had prepared ahead of time, ensuring that the process went as smoothly as possible. Leaving an abusive situation is inherently dangerous for anyone, especially for women. Abbie was proactive in informing the police about the situation, just in case, and she made sure the woman wasn't alone with her abuser. If you need help, please reach out—whether to a friend, an acquaintance, or anyone you feel comfortable asking for support. We are here for you. Remember, you are the one who can decide when and if the time is right for you to take action. Start creating a plan and gather your important documents so you can escape quickly when the moment presents itself. The woman she helped is a true warrior. She recognized her need for help, made a plan, and bravely asked a virtual stranger for assistance. Since leaving, she has not looked back. It is not easy, and making such a decision can be painful, and potentially dangerous. Please prioritize your safety and let someone know you need help. Thank you, Abbie, for being there and ensuring the woman's safety. And to the woman who left, we love and admire you. You are a warrior. If you or someone you know needs help, please reach out to the Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or text BEGIN to 88788. Stay safe, loves.

    Stories of Survival

    Hello, beauties!  On today's episode, Abbie and I wanted to further our discussion from the last episode on what Empowerment meant to us by telling you why and how we feel empowered.  We share our stories of survival and thriving.  There is much more to my story I shared, the heartache, the many tears, the six years of enduring the abuse, but I wanted to tell you how I finally had enough. Abbie also shares how it was her kids who inspired her to get out and ran as fast as she could with nothing but her kids and all the animals she could take. In the middle of trying to survive, we lose ourselves, our minds are telling us one thing and our hearts are feeling so much.  It's so hard to distinguish what is love and what is not.  When you put on this pedestal that showers you with love, love love, and such beautiful words, we believe it, just to be crashed back down with nasty words and name-calling, over and over again.  We have both been there and felt it all.  We are here for you.  It is a war between your mind and your heart, but that is the biggest destruction of your peace. Wherever you are in an abusive relationship, it is yours to navigate as you are the only one who knows if you can leave or not, if you can speak or not, or even if you dont beleive you are or that you can change an abuser.  There is NO judgment here and no one way to leave as there are many reasons.  Only when YOU decide, when YOU are strong enough will you find a way.  We just want you to be safe in any situation.  We know what it's like and know you got this. No one can know what you have endured like you, you have never claimed to be perfect, but your flaws tell your story.  There is no need to hide them.  Tell us your own story of survival.  We would love to hear it.  You are beautiful and we adore you.   If you or someone you know is in need of help and are in a Domestic Violence situation, please call 1-800-799-7233  or Text BEGIN to 88788 You can purchase my book "Invinsible to Invincible" on Amazon.  https://www.amazon.com/Invisible-Invincible-Kellie-Kristiansen/dp/B0CGL9VD1L

    Welcome to our Reboot episode!  Today Abbie and I wanted to discuss our absence and what it means to "empower" and our thoughts. Women EmpowHerment has five areas, self-worth, right to have and determine their own choices, access to all opportunities, power, and control over their own lives, and ability to influence.  There are so many ways to empower yourself and others.  Let's all try to empower each other and lift each other, it is not hard.   An empowered woman knows her wants, needs, rights, capabilities, and weaknesses.   You too can "butterfly".  Abbie explains this in beautiful words in the episode.  A strong woman will always turn her pain into power.  We are unstoppable once we are empowered.   To the women who wipe their own tears and still smile every day, WE SEE YOU. We were you, and we love and adore you completely.

    Welcome Lovelies!  Another episode with the beautiful Abbie!  Abbie and I discuss coping mechanisms in Domestic Violence.  We share our own experiences and some of our own coping strategies.  Ours may not work for you, but they worked for us. Maybe this can be a takeaway for you.  We truly hope so because we love you all.  Abbie talks about her Ketamine Therapy and how much it has changed her life, as well as her daughters.  There is a lot of negative as well as positive talks about Ketamine Therapy for PTSD, but for Abbie, it worked wonders!  Whatever you choose, find the one that works for you. We talk about how important it is to keep calm, do what you have to do to survive. Writing down your thoughts, emotions and all your feelings can be very helpful in healing. Although most women recognized that they were having difficulties in their relationship, the majority did not realize that they were experiencing domestic violence or abuse. Early in the relationship, women used a variety of strategies to justify or deal with their partner's behavior, such as ‘normalizing', ‘acceptance', ‘denial', keeping the peace' or ‘blaming themselves'. When women tried to stand up for themselves or challenge their abusive partner, this usually led to further abuse, so, to play safe, women tended to take on a more submissive role Keeping a diary On the recommendation of the police or a solicitor, several women began to monitor and record their partner's behavior, by keeping a secret diary. Secretly getting help Women have to be very careful getting help, especially if they were planning to leave, as they knew their partner's abusive behavior would get worse if he found out. Be safe!  There are a lot of resources out there if you need to reach out.  The Domestic Violence Hotline is 1-800-799-7233.   No Visible Bruises by Rachel Louise Snyder - Audiobook - Audible.com https://bit.ly/invisibletoinvinciblefemales www.Instagram.com/womens_empowherment_junkie www.instagram.com/invincible.her

    Welcome in ladies!  Today I have the beautiful Jenn Beninger!  Jenn is the Co-founder of Genius Ulocked, a visionary coaching leader with over 3500 lives transformed, empowering businesses with advanced multimodal methods and an inernationally acclaimed speaker and trainer. Pardon the sound on my end, had some difficulty with my audio.  Jenn and I discuss hour you are not your thoughts and your intuition is overwritten by other inner voices.  Your conscous mind is the "Goal Setter"  and your un conscious mind is the "Goal Getter". Your unconscious values, limiting beliefs, and negative emotions live in your unconscious mind, and when you're not reaching a goal, they're not in alignment with what your conscious mind wants. Your job is to uncover what is happening in your unconscious mind that's blocking your goals, s you have to learn to tap into your intuition to do this. When you do, you'll hit every goal you set Have you ever set a goal multiple times that you haven't been able to reach? You do all of the actions you're “supposed” to. You work really hard. You invest in all types of programs, templates, and support. Yet you still haven't managed to achieve it? This happens when your unconscious values do not support what your conscious mind wants. I could talk to Jenn for a very long time on this subject, but listen and reach out to her if you want to go inside and find yourself. Jenn is offering a free meditation to support you with developing and trusting your intution. you can find it here along with her social media accounts: Social Media Links: YouTube: Genius Unlocked youtube.com/@geniusunlocked LinkedIn: Jenn Beninger https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennbeninger/ Website: http://geniusunlocked.coach Unlocking Your Intuition Meditation Challenge: https://geniusunlocked.coach/unlocking-your-intuition-challenge/  

    Parent Guilt - Self Forgiveness

    Welcome everyone!   We are back again!  Abbie abd I delve into the world of mom guilt.  Well, we are now calling it parent guilt because its not just mamas that feel it, its all of us.  The guilt is real and we dont want to downplay it. We all feel guilty for something we have done raising our children.  No judgement here. My goodness I have so much parent guilt that I have dealt with on my own that I rote a whole chapter on it in my book! All different reasons we felt guilty.  From not being societys "perfect mom" in their standards to what our family deems as a perfect parent, etc.  We are all trying to do the best we can as parents, have some grace with yourself.  You got this. Social media us flooded with a million educational ideas, heathy breakfast options and other "momgoal" posts all to make us feel less than or that we should be doing it "their way".  Listen, your doing good just the way you are, you are in survivor  mode taking care of them, shuffling them back and forth to events, school, making sure they are fed, bathed and working your ass off too!  No one is perfect and that is OK.   Your parent guilt now, more than ever, is going to be strong, but it doesnt have to be.  You dont have to give in to those outside pressures. One thing to remember is sometimes parent guilt, especialy mom guilt, is so pervasive that it inhibits your ability to parent or function.  If you feel your guilt is creatiing high levels of anxiety, its worth bringing up to your doctor,  For many parents its a matter of stopping the subconscious comparisons and regaining confidence in your own decisions that are right for YOUR family. Much love to you all and know you are NOT alone.  Kell & Abbs

    On todays show, I had the pleasure of speaking to the beautiful Ann Hince.  Changing the world, from the inside, out, who is a Spiritual teacher, public speaker, and author. In her book, A Pathway to Insight, Ann discusses that in every second of every day we are emitting a signal to the universe that says “This is the way I am feeling now, please give me more reasons to feel this way”. To change what we are getting, we need to change the signal we are emitting. But how do we do that if the signal we are emitting is based on our whole history, not just on our current thoughts? Beneath our current thoughts, the amount of emotional and physical tension we hold in our bodies from our past history is truly mind-blowing. Luckily for us it is mostly sub-conscious. But what do we do if we truly want to access this stored tension and release it? Because in releasing it, we not only feel better, but emit a different signal and so attract different circumstances? This book will lead you gently through the path of removing the emotions around your history, and beyond that to removing tension physically held in the body. In doing so, your physical vibration will rise to the point that positive thoughts just occur to you, naturally. We talk about how the calm mom she wanted to be (well, most of the time), with powerful brainwaves, with others feeling calm around her, with seemingly magical events happening daily, and with the ability to sense and release tension deep within her body. Once you truly understand the Law of Attraction, Ann will take you on a journey of unwinding the past so that you can really attract what the universe knows you want. In the process, you will unlock the power of your inner eye, or sixth chakra, with the ability to see within yourself, just as the ancient Egyptian gods did.

    Hello  lovelies, on todays show I am honored to speak to the beautiful Jenny Toh.  Founder and ICF credentialed, certified professional coach of River Life Coaching Pte. Ltd. Her mission as a coach is to empower her clients, particularly introverts as just like herself, to embrace their introversion as a strength and to define success on their own terms Jenny's coaching process draws from the analogy of a river where the river source symbolizes your values and the main river is your life's direction. Your river is a reflection of the decisions that you make in your life. How does your river flow? I love this analogy!  Jenny talks so passionatly about her  mission.   Having started the business during the pandemic, Jenny was initially focused on one-to-one coaching, and all of her sessions were held online. She found this worked well as introverts tend to enjoy meeting online as they feel safer and it is a more private set-up for them. Currently running the business on her own, this has also helped her to optimise her operational costs in terms of office premises and support staff.  Meanwhile, since her company's establishment, Jenny has gone on to offer more diversified services whilst still retaining her aim to empower individuals to define their success on their own terms. To help her do this, she collaborates with other coaches and companies in projects and training. She states, “I believe that we all have our own unique talents and experiences to bring to the table. I am a strong believer in the collective wisdom of a community with a clearly defined vision and objective.” Jenny is funny and a joy to speak to.  If you want to work with Jenny Toh, you can find her here: River Life Coaching Sign up for her newsletter and - As a thank you gift, you will receive a simple guide on how to create your own life purpose statement!

She loves sharing brain tools, energy techniques and live processes in a way that is relatable to you.   Born French, she now reside in Las Vegas Nevada where she raised two daughters and is still raising a son as a single mom. Being a single mom is hard enough but when her kids became teenagers acting out in self destructive ways, the fear and feelings of powerlessness became so overwhelming that she unknowingly spiraled into depression. That experience was so painful that when she bounced back, using the tools that she teaches her coaching clients, she made it her mission to ensure that no mom would struggle alone as she did! She redirected her coaching from helping dating women to helping moms. She also founded the Co-Parenting With The Universe podcast and coaching practice where she helps single moms with teenagers learn how to prevent the downward spiraling into negative emotions and/or depression, connect with their own power and inner wisdom and enlist the power of the Universe to co-parent with them We talk about training our brains and aligning energy to take inspired action to co-create with the Universe.  Murielle can also who us how to tap (EFT) to adapt to you and help ourselves over and over again.

After losing her husband to a brain aneurysm, she founded the Movement “Loving Life after Loss” and now inspires others in processing their loss, by being a shining example of choosing Love over falling apart. She is also a Mother to two boys, a bestselling Author, Influencer & Speaker. After her husband passed, she found and created her way back to Joy.

Marie has become a shining example of choosing Love over fear and sadness. In her Movement Marie offers hope, healing & happiness to the world when people expect it the least and need it the most. Her story is inspirational and how she has overcome the loss of her husband, but on a spiritual level and was not angry.  She had a great life with him and she honors that and him and continues to honor him through her work and with her two boys.  Love this.   She has two books you can get there here if you experience grief and loss yourself.

    Hi lovelies, another amazing episode with the beautiful Jeanne (pronounced Jhon ) Andrus.  I apologize to Jeanne in my introduction I pronounced your name incorrectly!   Jeanne has been helping women navigate their Menopause Journey for well over a decade. It started with her own journey to health and happiness. Im all about this topic, so much taboo around it but its important that we talk about it and it is NOT in our heads!  Menopause  Matters and she is here to tell us why. When  she realized how little information and support was available as she navigated through menopause herself, she was determined to help women understand and control the changes that they were going through. More importantly,  to help them understand how menopause is a gift in their lives, allowing them to move themselves from the periphery of their lives to placing their own desires and purpose into the center of their life. Finally, and more importantly to help remove the taboo of menopause - the idea that women past menopause are invisible, or over the hill, or all washed up.  Jeane often tells the story of how this negative perception of post-menopause is inculcated in us from an early age, and why this is such a wrong perception of the amazing opportunity which menopause opens for women. We talk about being positively selfish and that we need to be, we often go to the Dr about our symptoms and ask for help and are told its nothing, you just have to "go through it" What's worse is that along the way, the different hormonal imbalances affect how well we sleep and how our sleep is disrupted differently. So, there's not a one-size-fits-all solution. Even Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) will not fix all the ways we don't sleep. Jeanne dives into the foods, diet, or lack of diet and cortisal stress hormones and the 5 best tips for sleep.   In addition to her coaching, Jeanne is the author of five international best sellers on menopause, including “I Just want to Be ME Again!” (now in its second edition) and her book aimed towards men trying to understand how menopause is affecting someone they love – “Where is My Wife and What Have You Done with Her?” Remember, Menopuase doesnt have to take over your life You can find all of her information and work with Jeanne at the following links https://menopausematterspodcast.com/optin FB @ Menopause Guru You Tube @jeanneandrus2377

    On todays show, it is just me today spouting some staggering statistics on Domestic Violence.   I can't even with this...its is so heart breaking to hear and know that our legal system is broken.  we need to stop the violence. Bottom Line Despite promising it “will never happen again,” in most cases, the abuser will not change, and the only way to end the abuse is for the victim to end the relationship. Unfortunately, the most dangerous time in an abusive relationship is when the victim tries to leave. That is when they are most likely to be seriously injured or even killed by the abuser, so it is important to get the help you need to safely escape harm. Homicide is one of the top 10 causes of death for women aged 20-44, and nearly half of female victims are killed by a current or former male intimate partner. If you are in an abusive relationship, you can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at any time of day or night to speak to someone trained to help you. The Hotline operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All calls are confidential and anonymous, and interpreter services are available for more than 170 languages.

    Welcome in all!  Let me preface this with an apology on the recording on my end, I sound like I am in a tunnel, but my guest is more important so she sounds great!!!, Today I have the beautiful Jennifer Falloon.  Today we are going to talk about taking that leap of faith to starting your own business when you think have no means to do so.  Jennifer did just that, now she buys apartments all over the nation with zero money out of her own pocket.   So, if you have been wanting to quit that corporate job but were afraid, this is for you! Jennifer teaches busy professionals how they are “better” than other riskier investments.  The best part is, she owns the apartments with zero money out of her own pocket.  I love the fact that she wants to teach this simple method to teens in schools, so they have some income while they may be looking for their dream job, but who knows, this could be it!  Simple, passive and it works. We all want to give up working for someone else, leave that corporate job, work for ourselves and have the financial freedom to do so.  Please reach out to Jennifer and lets get you on the road to entrepeneurship and working for yourself.   Put your money to work now so you dont have to later and bet whats left in your retirement plans before its all lost.  I really wanted to have someone on the show to walk us through how easy it can be to quit and invest in yourself.  I hope you all get something out of this and reach out to Jennifer and get this started!

    On today's show, I wanted to just come on and send out a reminder of all the amazing episodes for all you beautiful souls to recap how many amazing women we have had on the show.   I have met some beautiful amazing empowhered women who have showed resiliance and triumph in the face of adversary in their lives.  I am so amazed and inspired by each and every one of them. I am a true believer that even if ONE person is inspired by a story and it helps them on their journey, then I have done my work here.  Please do not think you are unworthy of ANYTHING, as we always say in these shows, you are enough.  In the sense of things that matter in all the ways you think they do, they don't.  Yours was a perspective brought on by believing that they were real.  We can always say that whatever happens or does not happen has value and is important.  Nothing can change the outcome of you being you, eternally, powerfully, gorgeously loved and forever.  Live your life deliberately, there is always an infathomable safety net beneath you.  You are and will always be NO MATTER WHAT, the you, who you treasure most, whom everyone loves, all indestructable, intergalactic forever and ever being.  You will always BE.  You will rise above and soar beyond what you think you are able to.  Go rock your life! Contrary to what your physical sense will show you, you are not a loser, when you stand far back enough and take a look you will see that bad things happen, but it does not in any way define who you are!  Your own invisible and unappreciated by others, strength, grit, sacrifices, fear, bravery, confidence, determination and heorism become known by all, all the petty backstabbing, two timing, lying, cheating con artists, will be found responsible, so hold your head up, it may seem your at a low right now, but life does get better, you have to take the action steps to move forward.  Dont believe what you were told about yourself by someone who is so insecure of themselves.  Your true, often unwitnessed goodness will escape no one, including those who never believed in you.  I know some of you were used to feel special for helping someone who abused you, but now they are using you as a sounding and possibly a punching board for their never ending problems which makes our sensors off and makes it hard to figure out whats going on inside ourselves, something inside of us feels broken.  They want you to believe that as control, please listen to any or all episodes that resonate with you, these women have gone through tragedies of their own and have become such inspirational women who will help you in your situation. I also have a domestic violence coaching program for women who need help navigating the triggers and going from invisible to invincible.  You can reach out to me on IG   www.instagram.com/invincible.her If you want to be a guest on my show, reach out to me also on IG. www.instagram.com/womens_empowherment_junkie And as always - RESPECT YOURSELF ENOUGH TO SAY I DESERVE PEACE AND WALK AWAY FROM PEOPLE OR THINGS THAT PREVENT YOU FROM GETTING IT!

Its a scary thought, but Vanessa teaches us that we can share our stories we never wanted to to tell in order to do just that...heal and dismantling the story you were told. I have learned over the years of healing along with Vanessa that we need to lead with love and love in the unknown and to radically look on the inside of Self-Love.   We are far from perfect so we need to share our imperfect underbellys! Our conversation about being who we are and fuck everyone who has an opinion about what we should do or not do.  Lets embrace US, our true selves.  Take that sexy photo and post the damn thing!  If it makes you feel good, then do it.  There will always be criticism from someone but that is where you thank them and say I'm sorry you feel that way about yourself.  She definately explains this in better terms as she tells the story of a post she did and her mother commented on her eyebrows...LOL  She claimed herself and we should too. Let's meet ourselves and say Fuck ya or Hell No.  Your allowed!  We don't need to have someone in our lives to make us happy, we can not control other peoples feelings or behavior about us.  We are responsible for our own feelings and we cant give our power away to someone else feel complete and fulfill us, that is not their job, it is our responsibility for ourselves.   Ladies, Men, listen, this podcast is so empowering I just want you to tune in and listen.  Vanessa can be reached at www.takeyourpowerback.com "Claim yourself, Unleash & Embody your Divine Feminine and trust the magic of New Beginnings Check out her website if you want her Spotify playlist, I downloaded it and its AH-Mazing!

I had so much fun learning that I am whole, complete and powerful just as I am.  We all know it, but need the reminders now and then.  Theresa goes into how to Quiet The Negative Aspects when one has High Functioning Anxiety And/Or ADHD! Imagine having her as your therapist that helps you live your best life forward instead of always looking back, she can help you release your past traumas and move forward! She enjoys helping women in reclaiming their power, ditching perfectionism, letting go of controlling tendencies, ending self sabotage and procrastination, recognizing your true value and worth, and realizing your visualizations and dreams in real life by taking action. This is something we, as women, are so good at, the self sabotage and our negative self talk.  Our inner bitch.  Acknowledge the thought and say thank you but I am moving forward.   I am so enthralled that we talk about the Chakras and this negative self talk comes from the Heart Charka, the dark side.  Lets acknowledge that negative self talk and release it.  The time frame of Tapping depends on how many aspects you want to work on so it is different for everyone.   Our bodies come together as one when we are aligned and we show up differently and this... is such an amazing feeling once you are aligned.  Connect with Theresa if you want to know more and heal with EFT tapping. Your negative self talk is there for a reason, (whether its to protect your heart or buried trauma)  but if your ready to move on to develop compassion and grace for yourself, I highly recommend reaching out to Theresa.  Check out her theresasfreegift.com Also, we did a tapping session after the recording you can view if you reach out and mention this podcast!

In her new book Eat your words asks... Whats in YOUR Inner Fridge? For me, I love food, so I get how hard it is to listen to that voice in your head and stop emotional eating, or eating in response to every thought, emotion and situation, and then later regret it. You can do this.  Believe in yourself. In her book Eat Your Words, it supports the power of relationship that necessitates encouraging women to seek and nourish their wholeness, to support a world of greater health and harmony. Both highly original and relatable, Isabel will inspire listeners to explore unique angles, decoding the biological state of "nourishment", so that they can learn to embrace self-love. The ability to accept yourself as you are and stop judging yourself.  Isabel's insight to this food relationship really opens your eyes to recognize that one word or one judgement can affect the outcome of someone's or even our own lives.   She is also the creator of The Life Actualization Process and has been a guide, mentor, and leader throughout her life. Working in transformational energy modalities, Isabel empowers clients to activate their potential, helping them to ignite their full passion and align with their most authentic life path by eradicating constricting beliefs, definitions, and self-limitations.  The beautiful part comes when you can feel that interaction between you and other people that you are excited to be in the world!  The "magic of your day" as Isabel likes to call it. This is not just how you eat, its how you digest your words to impact yourself. Look at what your saying to yourself, try speaking to yourself kindly.  Its very doable, a process.  She created a membership site Healing Activation Process Integrations.  She goes through different emotions and tries to follow it to where it was created in your lifetime and transform the feeling and shift for you within yourself.

    Welcome into the first episode of 2022 ya'll!   Another year of some amazing empowered and inspirational women, my first guest of the year is Paulette Stout.  Paulette is the author of Love, Only Better, a contemporary romance and bedroom rallying cry for women everywhere. It is a book meant to celebrate women's empowerment over their own bodies and pleasure as well as women discovering their own agency and fighting to keep it. If you look at the cover of her book it is a picture of a grapefruit cut in half and...this was banned by Amazon for being too sexually suggestive ladies!!   “I guess women taking control over their own lives is too taboo for our society.” We talk about how in our generation (years back!  :) ) that our parents didn't know how to talk to us about the birds and the bees so we grew up trying to figure it all out.  Raised by a single dad in Manhattan, Paulette was completely unaware of how to orgasm. Sex education was not something her father felt comfortable discussing, and by twenty-eight Paulette felt completely inadequate and traumatized by relationships that ended due to her inability to finish in the bedroom.  We need to know what we like in order to let our partner know.  Intimacy is a bonding experience and Paulette said the more we talk about it, we can bridge the "orgasm gap".  Speak up in the bedroom and feel comfortable to express your intimate feelings ladies!  Own it. Research in the Archives of Sexual Behavior found that while 75% of heterosexual men always orgasm during sex, only 33% of heterosexual women do. That's staggering—but so too is the 42% “orgasm gap” that divides men and women. Which is why it is imperative to open up a meaningful and frank conversation about the pressures and insecurities women experience when it comes to the big O and to stop censoring any possible way that women express themselves One last thing from Paulette that I LOVED so much was this.. Feel confident embracing your pleasure lives, you might be missing out on something truly special.  It is OK to want more in the Bedroom You can find the first Chapter of this book at www.PauletteStout.com MUST Read!  I loved it!  You can find Paulette at  https://www.paulettestout.com/ FB: @paulettestoutauthor IG: @paulettestoutauthor Twitter: @stoutcontent
