Today we have one of the most connected to spirit friends that I know, Amanda Jelinek. We met 14 ½ years ago in my Chiropractic practice and we’ve always had a bond both being driven women and moms and very intuitive. Today’s episode is a bit nontraditional – imagine that! I tell a lot of people about her and they usually give me wide-eyed looks so I thought, “What better way to showcase her than allowing you to see, ahem hear her in action!” Healers work in many different ways, so she talked colors, brought out some cards and sensed my energy. Amanda is a powerhouse human, connector and communication. My intent in this session is to share another perspective…one that may unlock you, unlock your connection, unlock a key to being closer to living your purpose, ON PURPOSE. About Our Guest A seeker of the truth, the light and the way and always a little quirky, Amanda is always digging in to learn something new. She's a full-time wife & mom, business consultant, semi-farmer, spiritual leader and Enneagram 3 who never starts her day without a hot cup of coffee on the porch. She learned over 20 years ago that the way to truly live and manifest your desires in this lifetime is to start by building a regular meditation practice and paying attention to the messages you receive. She's a practitioner of multiple modalities, working with individuals to shift their limiting beliefs and align their energy with their goals. For those who manage to pull her off the farm for awhile, she'll talk your ear off about sustainable growing, clean food and wildcrafting herbal medicine and will top it off with earthing practices and how to use of color, crystals & plants to align your chakras and deepen your spirit connection. You can find Amanda on Instagram or her website. Learn more about Dr. Tiff at Healing Touch Chiropractic, or follow us on Facebook and Instagram.

TODAY IS MY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF PODCASTING! I am a lot of things, but consistent hasn’t always been one of them. So putting out weekly podcast episodes for a solid year is kind of a big deal for me. The truth is, I can be consistent when it involves doing something I love. But as with anything in business (and life), while I love parts of podcasting, I do not love all the parts. Today I’m sharing about how I created a system and a team to support me, pushing this dream forward in a way I couldn’t do on my own. That living, breathing system is what gave me the push to produce even when I wasn’t feeling it. I’m also talking about how all of those lessons have trickled down from podcasting to infuse my entire business. And the growth I’ve created is something I never thought would be possible. Short story? I’m giving you the step by step formula to grow and scale your business, to cultivate a team and raise them to your level, and how to become the leader that can’t let them down.

Today’s episode is SO special to me, because it features my right hand gal, the PB to my J - Lyndi Rosenau.  For those of you that don’t know her, she is our shop mom, and keeps all of our many, MANY ducks in a row. She is a superstar hardworking, organizing, quiet force to be reckoned with, and the perfect compliment to my alpha personality. People ask me all the time, “Where can I find myself a Lyndi?” Welp. The truth is, I didn’t find her. And she didn’t find the Dr. Tiffany you know and love either. Back then, we were two, completely different people.  When we met thirteen years ago, we were two strong women who totally respected one another, but had very different personalities. What began as conflicts in our relationship, grew to become a training ground for both of us to level up. Together we’ve become an unstoppable team which is great, because we have no plans to stop anytime soon.

I’ve noticed a big dip in people’s energy recently. I have my hands on hundreds of people each week, so I have a bit of a different perspective because I’m not limited to any kind of social bubble, so I can get a read on the community at large. Plus I’m not frigging blind. That storm out there is raging with all of those conflicting opinions, confusion and unrest. it’s a world of chaos presented to us every time we turn on the TV or peek at social media. When there’s a storm of that size, how do we keep from getting caught up in it? Especially when it feels like we’re on a little life raft in this stormy sea? It’s quite simple actually. We take our power back. When everything is spinning out, there is one last thing that you can take complete control of. Psst. It’s you. I’m going deep and raw in this episode, sharing tactics that work. Tune in, won’t you? We need you at your best.

I wish I could turn this episode into a cloud, throw it in the air, and let it rain its wisdom down on the entire universe. The incredible, resilient Joelle Baehr joins me in this episode and sheds a light on trauma that everyone needs to hear. Trauma isn’t always something huge like child abuse, or a car accident. It also comes in seemingly small, daily doses that we assume disappear once they’re over. They don’t. Join us as Joelle tells us how she regained control in her life after significant trauma as a child. How her faith has blessed her with a bulletproof confidence, knowing that she is a child of God. She talks about how that same faith has shown her the way to forgive and says she could hug the people who have hurt her the most. That compassion and forgiveness is the key to healing. This eloquent, brilliant human runs us through how she learned to forgive, gained the confidence to risk making decisions, how she deals with triggers and why she banned bonding over hatred in her company. She says there are a million little things you can do to move yourself closer to peace. Just start somewhere. Start by listening to this episode. These are the books Joelle mentioned: The Chronological Bible, Deep Work, Will Power Doesn’t Work, The Body Keeps the Score, Multipliers, Managing Leadership Anxiety, and Widen the Window. About our Guest I started a company 17 years ago managing investment property. Today we manage 500 units and are a staff of about 20 in the Minneapolis and St Paul area. I was born and raised in North Central North Dakota where I played a lot of sports and learned to survive cold winters. I have a 20 year old son and have been married for 3 years. I love to write, read books, bake bread, be outside, and throw axes. Learn more about Joelle on Facebook or on Instagram. Follow HT Chiro on Facebook here, or @htchiro on Instagram.

Stacy Counterman ain’t your average coach. Her approach to her athletes is 100% holistic, and that includes body, mind and soul. If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a million times: Sports are life. Stacy agrees - and that’s why she’s committed to prepping her athletes for the long haul. From establishing internal motivations, finding your why and accepting all of the hurdles and injuries that come along with sports (and life), Stacey shares her incredible experience that applies to the kids she coaches, but extends to amazing life advice for anyone. We talk about how to pivot with our children through the changes in their lives, how to give them tools to “expand their bandwidth for more positive things” after a setback, and share tactical ways to build back their confidence. Grab your kiddos and listen in together as Stacy explains the power of setting small achievable goals, focusing on what can be controlled, and remembering that we are all more than any one thing. ABOUT OUR GUEST Originally from SD, Stacy received a B.S. in Athletic Training and Exercise Science from MSU Moorhead. She went on to receive her M.Ed. in Athletic Training from the University of Virginia. After working in the high school setting for three years, she discovered a new passion for the mental side of injury recovery and exercise in general. Now a doctorate student working on her EdD in Sport and Performance Psychology from the University of Western States, she works with athletes, groups, performers of all kinds who want to have fun, perform better, or consistently find "peak performance," whatever that may be. Outside of school and work, she loves to spend time with my husband and family, preferably in the mountains, on the beach, or at Disney World. You can find Stacy on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

In a world where “busy-ness is rewarded and rest is admonished” moms are getting hit the hardest. Dr. Ali started seeing this trend in her Chiropractic practice, and the sheer volume of tapped out moms alerted her to a major problem at large. You can’t have this conversation with every patient. You just can’t. So she’s created a container to do it in. It’s called Unfck Motherhood, and it’s a place to nurture and grow self-aware, connected, resilient women, who understand that taking care of themselves serves their families immensely. The massive shift to motherhood isn’t unlike the massive shift many of us have undergone with Covid. Dr. Ali’s soul-saving approach to restoring the hood to motherhood is something we can all benefit from. JOIN DR. ALI’S COURSE! If you are you over it, feeling like every day is the same, not fulfilling, and sometimes there are sides of you showing up that you just aren't sure where they came from - you're not alone. The Embracing Motherhood is designed for busy mums to reimagine their mothering experience, provide tools you can use to change it up, and to allow reconnection and joy to re-enter your world. If this sounds like something that could turn around your 2020, head over and check it out. www.draliyoung.com/embrace ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr Ali Young is a Chiropractor with a passion for helping Mums to become UnFkd and thriving. With nearly 18 years experience in practice, working with children and mothers for most of the time, she loves watching mums blossom into themselves as they grow and learn about themselves and their children. She graduated from RMIT University in Melbourne Australia in 2002. She moved to Perth WA early 2003 and began working as an associate for 3 years, before branching out with her best friend and mama mentor Dr Olivia Gleeson to work side by side for 8 years. In this period she served as on the WA Registration board and was the Vice President of the WA Chapter of the Chiropractors Association of Australia. She also completed her Masters in Chiropractic Pediatrics. She loved playing sport... which is where she met her husband. Not long after getting married, they moved to Malaysia where she had the majority of her first pregnancy. She birthed in Perth WA, with her support network, but they moved back overseas when their first child was only 2.5 weeks old. This is where her reality set in. They eventually moved back to Australia, in QLD, and she returned to work, and became pregnant again, this time birthing in a regional hospital with a great support network. They stayed in Australia for a while longer, and just after the youngest child turned 1 they moved to South Korea for two years. This was epic, and her tribe of wonder mums was really born here. As was the growth of understanding of motherhood for her. When they moved back to Australia Dr Ali reopened her private practice in Gladstone QLD, seeing over 50% children and another 20-30% pregnancy and post partum mums. in 2019 she has really felt a calling to share her knowledge about UnFckIng Motherhood with a bigger community. So Unfck Motherhood was born, to help mums embrace their motherhood journey again, and regain their HOOD. You can find Dr. Ali on Facebook, Instagram, on her website, and you can join her challenge here. You can join her Embracing Motherhood course here.

It’s so important to know the difference between a healthy and an unhealthy stress response. Especially in our kiddos. If your child is having behavioural issues, digestive issues, trouble sleeping, difficulty self-regulating, experiencing diet changes, feeling negative, having trouble focusing - in short, having a negative experience - there’s a good chance they’re suffering from anxiety. There’s plenty to feel anxious about right now. Today’s episode is a recording of back-to-school anxiety webinar I did that will teach you how to spot it, where it comes from, and the best ways to address it. Once you identify the problem and start asking questions, you’ll find solutions. You’ll build the tribe you and your kids need. I really nerd-out on this one. But here's the thing: Happy moms + happy kids = happy Dr. Tiffany. For many of us, the emotional world is divorced from the scientific. Stress and its effect on your brain, heart and body are very real. And with all that’s going on in the world, we need to stop ignoring that. Lots of love to all you parents out there. You will get through this. And you’ll bring your babies with you. Learn more about The Aligned Life on my website, Instagram or Facebook.

There is a quote from this episode that I’ll keep with me forever. “What if I fall? Oh but darling, what if you fly?” Mandy George, West City Fargo Commissioner, knows her fair share about flying. And that quote drove her beyond hurdles that would have stopped most. After getting an extensive education, she began her career as a pilot almost 20 years ago, where she fell in love with aviation. Early on she realized that as a woman in a male dominated field, she’d have to “be better, to get equal credibility.” She was up to the challenge and didn’t let that stop her. It also didn’t stop her from pursuing her dream of community service as Commissioner. She lost her ex-husband to an accident early on in her daughter’s life. As a single mother, she relied heavily on her community to support her during that loss and with her career, and has come full circle to provide support for that same community now. Join us for this high-energy conversation, where Mandy shares how she overcame the odds to build a life aligned to her gifts, passions and her family. About our Guest Born in 1977, Mandy grew up in Moorhead and graduated from Moorhead High in 1995. She went to NDSU for 2 years, MSU for 4 years, got her Bachelor of Arts in sociology, went to UND for 1 semester in commercial aviation, then onto Vic’s aircraft and MN Aviation in Albert Lea. She completed private, instrument, commercial, multi-engine, Certified Flight Instructor, instrument and multi, and airline transport pilot certificates. (CFI, CFII, MEI, ATP) She became an instructor, teaching lessons from 2002-2005, and went on to co-own Eagle 1 Aviation with her late ex-husband, from 2003-2006. She flew freight for corporate air (2005-2006), and flew Encore Air Cargo (2006-2007). Her daughter was born in 2008, during which time she did some part time flight instruction. She flew for Titan Machinery (2011-2014), Red River Aero (2012-2015), Dragonfly Air Services (2013-2015), and Bell Bank (2015-current). She was elected West Fargo City Commissioner June 2020, and has been serving her community ever since with a commitment to honesty, transparency and putting the community first.

Last week I didn’t put out a podcast. For everyone that knows me, that’s … off. I was TAPPED. I was exhausted and couldn’t do any more. This wasn’t my first time at the pushed-too-far rodeo - over the years I’ve been here quite often. Over the years I’ve learned a great way to avoid getting hit by the bull. I step outside of myself and settle in for some observation time. Here’s the thing - there’s no judgement in observation. I just do a quick body/soul scan to see what’s going on. Today I share 8 signs I look for in a soul scan. It’s a simple checklist I store in my head that helps me name the problem. Once I identify the source of the funk, I can get the funk out of there. I’ll also share my best practices for getting back on track. It takes a deep breath, a mindful moment and some practice, but boy does it work. Giving yourself a little space to be human, then objectively standing back and observing yourself is a gift - to yourself and everyone around you.

I have a strong personality. But that wasn’t always the case. In my meeker days, I didn’t have a strong voice and I didn’t ever want to use it. I was always so concerned with what other people thought, and it took me a long time to build confidence and self esteem. Once I graduated from Chiropractic school, I knew I had a LOAD of knowledge and ability, but quickly realized that my flimsy delivery wasn’t conveying that to my patients. When I realized I had to start showing up with the authority of a doctor, I decided that I would fake it till I made it. It worked. Today’s episode is about how important your delivery is. But it’s also about reading the tone behind other people’s words. Learning to mirror the tone of the person you’re talking to, can deepen and maximize your connection. And connection, my friend? That is the name of the game. And it’s worth every ounce of work you put in to deepen it. Learn more about The Aligned Life on my website, Instagram or Facebook.

Woah Nellie, this has been a long time coming! With 42 previous episodes behind us, we’ve grown. And honestly, I started the You Decide Podcast knowing that it would evolve. I had an idea. I went for it. I let it grow. It became The Aligned Life. I am a chiropractor, yes. But over my years in practice I learned that what drew me to chiropractic, was that I am a healer at heart. My time in chiropractic has given me the opportunity to work with thousands of families, and in so many of them, our healing went FAR beyond spinal health. I discovered I have a knack for moving people, especially women, out of a stuck place, into a place of freedom, hope and joy. And that look, when hope breaks through in someone's eye? That’s addictive. I felt like I had more to share. And it was stifled within the walls of my practice. Not only do I want to reach more people where distance is currently a barrier, I also want to reach my patients, with love and support, that they can check into and out of when they have time. So what is The Aligned Life? It’s a podcast, you bet. But it’s also an online community of women, a place of growth and learning, a place to relax and heal. It’s a journey that we will take together. You were put on this earth to do something. I want to give you the courage and confidence to go get it. Follow along and let’s make something special.

For better or for worse Covid-19 forced us all to go cold turkey on busy-ness. With the sudden closure OF THE WORLD, we were all forced to do a major pivot, and some with more grace than others ;). Teens were not exempt from this shift. In fact, the bulk of them have inherited our addiction to packed schedules, so the pivot was very hard on them too. Cal is back on the show today, and she shares her experience around the Covid lockdowns. She explains about how the intensity put a spotlight on their roles within her large group of friends: The leaders rose to the challenge and kept the group connected, while some people fell off the grid. She learned the feeling of stagnation inside and out, and figured out the quickest route out of it. She was given an opportunity to audit her friendships and define her own role among them. I’m always blown away by the depth and maturity of this daughter of mine. Her main message today? Learn about your tendencies and boundaries now, BEFORE you find yourself in a crisis. When you find yourself in over your head - endure it, take the lesson and keep moving. And finally, time is precious, so be careful who you spend it with.

Hold onto your seat and get ready for this one! Kellee Hann is a force to be reckoned with, and if she can’t inspire you to take that first step toward your dream life, no one will. Kelee worked for years in a supportive role to many successful entrepreneurs. Eventually she decided to use her powers to her own benefit, and started two booming businesses in daycare, and photography. Once she tried her hand at boudoir photography, she knew without a doubt, this was her calling. In this role, she is sees women come into her studio vulnerable and apprehensive. Together, through a bond of trust and encouragement, these women blossom into energetic, confident forces, right in front of her eyes … and camera. Her message to women who long for more for themselves: Life is short. Stop making excuses. Stop letting other people tell you you can’t. Take that first step. Put yourself in a position where you can’t afford to fail. Because what you truly can’t afford, is to give up on your dream. About Kellee I am a fierce wife, mother and entrepreneur. I’ve run a successful mostly organic and natural home daycare for seven years and then started a photography business 1.5 years ago. I am super fortunate to be married to the GREATEST man in the WORLD, Mr. Thomas Hann! We have four beautiful and crazy kids and one even crazier puppy.

Today we’re talking circle of influence. Is there anyone in your circle who needs to be muted? When you feel the pull toward a new idea, do you bounce it off the people in your circle? Most of us do. But how many people in that circle poo-poo on your idea because it scares them. How often are you dissuaded by the impending “I told you so’s” coming down the line if you fail? If your heart, gut, intuition and mindset are all high-fiving when they hear your idea - that is all you need. Setting a boundary with the negative Nancy’s (or Ned’s) in your group can help you redefine the role they have in your decision making. Wins are super fun. But those fails, girl … those are the biggest gift. Don’t be afraid of them, and certainly don’t be afraid of the people who would ignore the benefits of that wealth of experience and rub it in your face. Your inner guidance is all that you need. Trust yourself. Learn more about Dr. Tiff at Healing Touch Chiropractic, or follow us on Facebook.
