(29 min) Kayla and Laurie dive into the issue 'When crisis mode becomes chronic.' They look into WHY you don't want that, including the neuro-science behind it (cortisol levels). "Fight or flight is an unsustainable state," Kayla points out. If it has become your new normal, know that you're not doing yourself, or your loved one, any favors. Poking fun at her own tendency to want to "fix" situations and wield her baseball bat, Kayla reminds us that (unless it's actually our job), we are NOT first responders. Laurie describes the days when she was desperately calling her son's drug dealers or lurking in their neighborhoods, when he'd gone missing. Learn why Laurie and Kayla are both huge fans of "the pause." And why it's sometimes important to embrace the "I don't know." When our thoughts and feelings are out of control, we often respond by trying to try to fix or control the situation with our loved one, but that is often simply not possible. However, it IS possible to override the out-of-control feelings, to learn the skills to calm ourselves down. Our hosts help you understand how to identify and differentiate "crisis" and "chronic" and what to do once you've determined what you're facing in a given moment.

Welcome back after an exciting US Olympic Trials! The athletes of track and field didn't not come to play over the last two weeks. We will highlight a little more of what happened in week 2 of the trials. Coming out of the trials, we were seeing how performances weren't good enough and for those who did have good enough performances, that wasn't all they needed to advance. See how Clyde's statement some weeks back came to life post Olympic trials all over the world. For those who directly made the team-Sir Lucious, Lamar, and Clyde highlight a major element that separates them from the teams of recent past. Do you see what the guys see? Lastly, more on the topic of Name, Image, and Likeness...the well gets deeper than you think. Clyde jumps in the seat for RAPID FIRE and Heartbeat Props this week are relevant to all of our current climates. Sit back, enjoy the summer weather and listen in on the newest episode of Athletics LLC!

While the city and the nation celebrate the end of the worst of the pandemic and we're all enjoying reconnecting in person again, New Yorkers must reconcile the fact that tourists will once again flood our streets. New York Times culture editor Adam Sternbergh recently wrote about the phenomenon of New Yorkers having the city to ourselves and joins us to discuss the love/hate relationship of locals and tourists. We'll also take calls from listeners about what you will miss once the tourists -- and the lines -- fully return.

Proclus was the uncle of Hilarius; both were from Kallippi in Asia during the reign of Trajan. When Proclus was brought to be tried as a Christian, the judge asked him 'Of what race are you?' Proclus answered 'I am of the race of Christ, and my hope is in my God.' When the judge threatened to torture him, he said 'When you are afraid to transgress the Emperor's commands and risk falling into temporal punishment, how much more do we Christians fear to transgress against God's commands and fall into eternal torment!' When Proclus was given over to torture, his nephew Hilarius came forward and proclaimed 'I too am a Christian.' After torture, both were condemned to death; Proclus was crucified and Hilarius beheaded.   Imagine how the Orthodox Church would benefit if, when we were asked 'Of what race are you?' the first answer that came to mind was not 'I am Greek, Russian, Serbian...' but 'I am of the race of Christ!

Listen to this week's sermon here. It is based on this passage of scripture: ▶ 2 Corinthians 12.2–10 I know a person in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know; God knows. 3And I know that such a person—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know; God knows— 4was caught up into Paradise and heard things that are not to be told, that no mortal is permitted to repeat. 5On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses. 6But if I wish to boast, I will not be a fool, for I will be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think better of me than what is seen in me or heard from me, 7even considering the exceptional character of the revelations. Therefore, to keep me from being too elated, a thorn was given to me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me, to keep me from being too elated.8Three times I appealed to the Lord about this, that it would leave me, 9but he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.' So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10Therefore I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities for the sake of Christ; for whenever I am weak, then I am strong.

So even the righteous will experience traumatic situations that will be depressing, and cause deep despire and emotional damage. But they will rise back up again. Prophetess Aretha explains why. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Regardless of when you've been diagnosed with PCOS, you've likely been dealing with the symptoms for a while. You feel like you've tried everything and your hope of getting on top of your symptoms is dwindling because you've exhausted all of your options. No one else seems to be dealing with these symptoms (or not to the extent that you are) but nothing you do is working for you. You've googled countlessly, commented on and read through PCOS forums and facebook pages and spoken to countless health care professionals to no avail. It's exhausting! You stop to think about it all and wonder “is this just the way I am?” and “I'm not getting anywhere regardless of what I do, so is it just the way things will be and I'll just have to learn to live with it?”If you've ever asked yourself this question, I really encourage you to listen to today's episode of the podcast with one of my patients, Erin. While she was only diagnosed at 16 with PCOS, she has been dealing with the symptoms like irregular periods and weight gain (that's hard to lose) since age 10 and only in the last year has she realised: a) that these symptoms are related to her PCOS, b) it's not ‘just the way she is' and most importantly c) there is something you can do about your symptoms!I know you may feel like giving up hope - it's damn tough to deal with these symptoms, let alone feeling isolated in it all, not getting much help from healthcare professionals and feeling like you're just stuck feeling like sh*t (excuse my French, but true!).You don't have to feel like this. Almost always, when we understand your root cause, we can help reduce and resolve these symptoms. I hope this episode gives you hope that this isn't just the way you are and empowers you to take the reins of your PCOS so that you can feel well again!This episode is for you if:You are dealing with constant month long bleedingStruggling to lose weight is a problem for you (regardless of your activity levels)The symptoms you're experiencing have been happening for so long, that you worry that this is “just the way you are”Your periods are irregular and you want to regulate themYou were told at 16 (or a similar age) that you'll struggle to get pregnantYou've tried so many diets and programs that you're not sure there's any hope leftSome things we cover in this episode:Insulin resistant PCOSHow to regulate your periodsSupporting weight loss and how to do it in a sustainable wayHirsutismHaving extremely heavy periods and how quickly that can been correctedMigraines and how to figure out if they're hormonalDoing so many diets and being hesitant to start something newThe ‘wagon' and being ‘on' or ‘off'When to test for your root cause and having that in black and whiteResources and References:My Book: Getting Pregnant with PCOSLinks to our programs:The PCOS ProtocolEggducated

We're back with some fresh new podness for your earholes! That sounded weird and I'm not sure I like it but anyway, Courtney & André return for another episode! They run through results from the NWSL's Super Saturday and hit one some key topics of discussion in each match. Then, what you all have been waiting for... At ~32:30 they delve into the disappointment that is the USWNT Olympic Roster. We ask such questions as 'When does NWSL performance matter?', 'When does it not?', 'What criteria is used?', 'Does versatility still count if one of the jobs isn't done well?', and 'How much will Christen Press's back ache from carrying that attack?' – plus so much more!

Why did Bilam beat his donkey 3 times? Torah Wellsprings 5781 alludes to the שלש רגלים three holidays, Pesach, Shavuos, and Succos. As Rashi writes, "You are trying to uproot a nation that celebrates the three regalim (Pesach, Shavuos, and Succos)!" The donkey was implying, "How can you even think of uprooting the Jewish nation? They celebrate the yomim tovim in the Beis HaMikdash, three times a year!" The Jewish nation performs many mitzvos. The donkey could have said something like, "How dare you try to uproot a nation that wears tefillin" and the like. What is unique about the three regalim? The Kotzker Rebbe zt'l explains that during the Yerushalayim was שלש רגלים crowded, and miraculously, no one complained. As the ולא,Mishnah (Avos 5:5) states אמר אדם לחברו צר לי המקום שאלין ,No one ever said" ,בירושלים 'There's no place for me to sleep in Yerushalayim.'" Generally, this is understood to mean that there was miraculously enough room for everyone in Yerushalayim. However, the Chasam Sofer zt'l (vol.2 234) explains that it was in fact crowded in Yerushalayim due to the millions of people who came to be עולה לרגל. The miracle was that no one ever complained. As the Chasam Sofer writes, "The miracle was that no one ever complained about their cramped accommodations. They loved Hashem immensely, and Hashem planted a lot of joy in their hearts when they were in Yerushalayim. Therefore, no one ever said it was crowded. As the saying goes, 'When our love was strong [we were able to sleep on a knife's blade]'" --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/shomerman/message

This week, Lee talks to fellow podcaster, Martin Teasdale, the voice behind the Get Out Of Wrap podcast and one of the most experienced contact centre operators ever, about the background in life that gave him the skills to strike up an instant rapport, the power of "JFDI", and what really goes on behind that voice on the end of the line... KEY TAKEAWAYS The military lifestyle, of constantly being on the move and making new friends, while often seen as a negative, actually instilled in Martin the gift of being able to quickly strike up rapport with people. Teams are often a reflection of society as a whole. You can find representatives of youth, education, the older generations, part-time workers and even those with a high level of experience. People calling into contact centres are generally not calling for fun. They always call with a purpose. They have a need. Sometimes, we must put aside our own feelings and tribulations, and engage empathetically, which can be tough. Whenever we face down a challenge, we must remember that the pain is temporary, and that all things will pass. Push through and the challenge will be little more than a memory before long. BEST MOMENTS 'There's a part of you that says - JFDI!'

The surprise result of Friday's Chesham and Amersham by-election has led to questions over why the Conservative lost just so badly - and why no one saw it coming. On today's Coffee House Shots, Conservative Home's Paul Goodman warns against over-reading the situation: 'When it comes to by-elections, the golden rule should be, why not presume that voters will kick the establishment? ...  I really think, as I'm looking around at these Remainers coming out of their various holes and lairs, indulging these pathetic fantasies, that they have this out of proportion' James Forsyth adds that the result isn't so much a problem for the Conservative party, as it is symptomatic of the future problems in party management.  Tory MPs of various stripes have analysed the results through the lens of their personal cause, and for southern MPs, the issue stems from a tilt away from the traditional Tory base to appease the new Red Wall seats: 'Every rebel with a cause is going to say that that cause has been demonstrated by this result, and all of it will just make party management more complex.'

This week, Steven talks to groundbreaking designer and artist, Gary McQueen, about the innovations currently sweeping through the fashion and creative industries. In particular, Gary discusses the ways in which technology is shaping the way we access creativity, and how all great creations are built upon storytelling. KEY TAKEAWAYS Progress in the world is always taken further by the great thinkers who see the possibilities and opportunities in places where others do not. Great art, no matter which sector, always comes across more easily to others if there is a clear narrative behind it. We pay tribute to those who shape us and teach us, by acknowledging their effect in our own work, and inspiring others to go back and recognise their achievements. Unless we specifically create with others, then the act of creation itself can be a lonely place that requires us to withdraw and fully immerse ourselves in a project. BEST MOMENT 'Entrepreneurs always seem to find a way to push through barriers' 'I've got to translate that feeling into something tangible' 'Everything I do is based on storytelling' 'When you're a creative person, it's quite a lonely place to be' VALUABLE RESOURCES The Steven Sulley Study      Gary McQueen - https://www.garyjamesmcqueen.com  ABOUT THE HOST The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life. My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.

Often when we talk about God we focus only on His love, mercy, and grace; forgetting that God is also holy and righteous - traits that cause Him to exercise judgment over sin. Today we continue our series - Good Mourning: Taking Your Sorrow to the Savior - by examining what the often forgotten Old Testament book of Lamentations has to teach us about God's righteous anger in response to our sinfulness. Listen with us in our newest message as we discover what to do When God Becomes the Enemy.

“When I'm sometimes asked when will there be enough [women on the Supreme Court] and I say, 'When there are nine,' people are shocked.

"At times in my life when I’ve struggled or when I’ve maybe been less than my best self, my mom always asks, 'When was the last time you went for a run?'" Welcome to the newest series on the Ali on the Run Show: The Everyday Runner. On this series, we’re hearing from runners who are just like you and me. Not professional athletes — these runners have jobs, families, and responsibilities beyond this sport we all love so much. Today, meet Dr. Margi Johnson. Margi is a family medicine physician and mom of three with big goals and dreams on the run. (Hint: She wants to qualify for the Olympic Marathon Trials someday, which would mean running a sub-2:45 marathon!) On this episode, Margi shares her story of being an "airlift baby," born in Vietnam and brought to the United States, where she was adopted and raised. She talks about being athletic as a child, but admits that running was never her first love. (She chose to be a jumper, because she wanted the sport that involved the least amount of running! The irony!) It wasn't until Margi was in her surgical residency — with two kids and a third to come — that she rediscovered and truly fell in love with running. Margi talks about what the past year has been like for frontline workers, shares her story of getting Covid a whopping three times, and explains her family's decision to relocate from New Jersey to Georgia.

Including identifying your customer, coming up with effective content, repurposing it, and using it to build trust so that you generate more sales. She also explains why you need to use social media in a way that is congruent with your values and how to ensure that you do so.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   It doesn't matter how old you are, you can still change things and live your dreams. If what you're doing is no longer enjoyable, pause, assess things, and consider alternatives. Journaling ensures that you listen to what is going on in your mind. Reading your journal enables you to uncover patterns and take the right action. Speaking to others lets you bounce ideas around and helps you to gain clarity. In the corporate world, it is all too easy to lose track of who you really are. Running your own business is very fulfilling, it enables you to truly take control. Be genuine on social media. If you create multiple social media avatars, you're going to come a cropper - be yourself. People want to make an authentic connection. Your social media marketing needs to reflect your company values. Start with the social media channel your target audience hangs out on. When you find content that works, repurpose, and reuse it. Really listen to people and practice empathy to ensure that you truly understand them.   BEST MOMENTS ‘ 'No matter what your age, you can still live your dreams' 'Present you as you, that human connection will carry you and create wonderful opportunities' 'The most successful are those who recognize that their social media marketing is an extension of their company values' 'When you´ve actually got content that works, repurpose it, use it somewhere else'   This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life.

"Living your purpose will make it possible to do all the things you need to do to reach the goals you need to reach in order to fulfill your dreams, which are as big as the world and as optimistic as your mind can imagine." —Norma Kamali, author of I Am Invincible Change is inevitable, in the world, our bodies and our lives. How we navigate life's endless changes determines the quality of our lives, especially during our everydays and how we experience each 24-hours, but from the longview of life, it will determine the legacy we create, the connections and relationships we make and build and how or if we contribute positively to a better world tomorrow. Fashion designer Norma Kamali's new book, part memoir, part lifestyle/self-esteem builder I Am Invincible is aptly described by Cynthia Rowley as "personal power with a side of popcorn". Upon the book's arrival, I read it in one day. Highlighting constantly, stopping and rereading, taking closer notes so as not to forget and apply immediately her wisdom to my life, I couldn't wait to share with podcast listeners and blog readers (where does the 'side of popcorn come in you may be wondering? she shares a simple, yet delicious recipe for homemade popcorn - I tried it the next day - yep, loved it). What good fortune we all have to live now with so much to learn, apply, explore and tickle our curiosity, and with such good fortune, we can easily become overwhelmed. However, Kamali reminds and models in her own life of more than 70 years that this good fortune need not betwixt us but rather spark excitement within us to figure out how to make it work for each and every one of us so we can live with purpose. The book transpired out of a gift she gave to a friend who was celebrating her 50th birthday. She gave as a Moleskine journal filled with 50 Tips on Turning 50! and the reaction led to asking her to make her book available, and now we have quite the book of inspiration and lessons applied and learned. As someone who chose herself when she founded her own business in her early 20s after ending a marriage and the business she and her then husband began together and continues to hold the reins and someone who found whom she describes as her soulmate at 65, Kamali is a living example of intentionally building one's self-esteem, recognizing and celebrating your authentic self and living with purpose in your business and personal life. Her book begins with the driving question: If you can control the quality of your life, why not do it? And while she definitely had me at Why Not . . . ? I couldn't agree more that indeed we should invest and apply in all the areas we can to elevate the quality of our lives. Today's episode/post shares 33 of which there are many more lessons discovered as I read her book. I hope you enjoy. ~be sure to tune in and listen to the audio version of today's episode for further discussion on each of the points shared below. LIFE & MIND 1.Be brave "Be willing to surrend who you are for what you can become. Change is very hard for many people, but change is inevitable in all of our lives. It is oftentimes what propels us forward. If you initiate change, you will have proactive management over it." The courage to be brave is not for the faint of heart. The moment of transition lasts more than a moment, and during this time of transition from where you were to where you are going with your choice is full of emotions challenging your decision, then buoying your excitement, then challenging your decision again. The only way to overcome the doubt is to continue to strive forward as such feelings are only the mind's lizard brain wanting you to continue what it knows not necessarily because it is best for you. ~read this post - How to Be Brave: Follow Your 'This' to Live the Life You Have Dreamt About 2. Understand your hormonal levels "Throughout puberty, pregnancy, post-pregnancy, perimenopause, and menopause, women ride a hormonal roller coaster. Diet and exercise are the first lines of defense for balancing hormones." On a practical level, since I mentioned emotions in #1, not only do we need to strengthen our emotional intelligence (EQ), but as women, we need to understand the hormonal changes each of us will go through at some time. Kamali recommends speaking to your wellness doctor or an expert in the medical field to best understand how to navigate and understand what your body is moving through. 3. Learn to love yourself first, so you can love others well "Positive self-esteem based on how we feel about our mind, body and soul is needed for self-love. If we haven't done work in the self-love area, there is a chance we are not as discriminating as we need to be, especially in relationships." Kamali's own life exemplifies the need to walk away for our own well-being,"Walking away begins with a belief system you have in your head about your own value." And it is in the self-love, we become clear about how to love others well and know what love actually looks like. 4. Professional teeth cleanings - multiple times a year Back to the practical. Of course, brushing our teeth daily, multiple times a day is a must along with flossing, etc., but our smiles are powerful. They not only enhance our beauty, they boost our own confidence and endorphin levels when we smile, and a healthy smile can be maintained for an extraordinary long time if only we take preventative measures regularly throughout our entire lives. Two times a year tends to be the recommendation by dentists, but opt for more if you can and let your smile shine. 5. Embrace a meditation practice A meditation practice need not be elaborate. It can be as simple and momentary as intentional time slipping away to the restroom while at work for 5 to 10 minutes to breathe deeply and settle ourselves, but yes (I know I have recommended this practice many times here on the blog), meditation is a worthwhile practice for so many lifelong health benefits - the mind most especially. 6. Be proactive to navigate well through fear/anxiety/worry When it comes to eliminating or handling well unwanted worry, undesirable situations, Kamali advises developing routines to engage in everyday whenever worry, fear or anxiety arises. For example, she shares how meditation breaks when taken "temper anything stressful that might throw off [her] routine". 7. Embrace regular, rigorous exercise to improve sleep "In addition to helping naturally reduce stress and anxiety levels, regular exercise has been shown to boost the amount of time the body spends in deep sleep. This is the most physically rejuvenating phase, important for memory and cognitive function. When energy is restored, cells regenerate, and the immune system is strengthened." Upon reflection on any night in which I woke up prematurely and was not woken up, it followed a day I did not exercise. On days I do not exercise due to exhaustion - mental and emotional fatigue, I actually cause more stress because my sleep is not deep and sometimes interrupted of my own accord. All of these ahas I have seen and learned in my own life reiterate the vital importance of making time in my day for an exercise routine. 8. Make your bedroom a sacred space in your sanctuary Currently, as many readers know, I am nearing the end of a much anticipated bedroom restyling and when it is complete I look forward to sharing with you my decisions for the space and how they help me create a sacred space. Each of us will make unique choices for the decor, the sheets, the ambiance which work best for us, but one thing Kamali reiterates is to leave the bedroom for sleeping, resting and connecting intimately with your partner only. In other words, leave the technology outside of the bedroom. ~10 Décor Tips for Creating a Private Sanctuary for Rest & Repose: TSLL's Restyling Process (mid-way through) of the Primary Bedroom (for TOP Tier exclusively) ~Why Not . . . Create a Sanctuary for your Senses? ~14 Ways to Create a Happy Home, episode #278 FOOD 9. Make what you eat a lifestyle choice "What you eat should be a lifestyle choice, not a fad diet, just like your workouts should be part of your daily routine, and not sporadic." TSLL lives by the principle of eating well and with the seasons. The food we eat need not be fancy and it absolutely doesn't need to lack flavor as it is the flavor which will satiate us, telling our bodies we are full and satisfied. However, learning how to cook and eat this way is a skill we are taught as children or need to teach ourselves as adults. It is well worth it and once we understand the fundamentals, easy than might be expected. "The simple secret I've learned is that if we eat quality food we will feel fulfilled and less controlled by our cravings. The amount of food we need is much less than you might imagine." ~Enjoy Stepping into Your Kitchen with 6 Simple (and effortless) flavor tips ~explore TSLL's cooking show - The Simply Luxurious Kitchen - to begin to enjoy stepping into your kitchen 10. No more sugar "[Sugar] doesn't do your complexion any favors, either. A doctor once described sugar's oxidizing effect on cells to me as akin to 'rust'. The rust starts to decay and age the cell. This accelerated cellular aging also harms the building blocks of collagen and elastin, causing skin to sag prematurely." The natural sugars found in fruits and some vegetables - keep on devouring them! However, by becoming aware of how sugar infilrates our diet without either realizing it or recognizing how much we are actually consuming, we do our health and our skin no favors. 11. Add ginger and/or lemon to your hot water to debloat Water, water, water all the time, water. Adding fresh lemon juice also is a healthy choice, one many of us know about, but did you know about adding ginger? (I have a feeling many of you did and I am late to this health tip :), but I want to share with you all.) Ginger is a carminative along with many other herbs, and carminatives help to soothe the digestive tract and relieve gas, cramps and bloating. 12. Stock your épicerie with foods to care for your inner and outer health. In episode #109 and in even more detail in chapter 12 of TSLL's second book Living The Simply Luxurious Life, I share a list of 34 essential items to have in your Épicerie (grocery or pantry). TSLL's 2nd Book (learn more here) STYLE "Style survives fashion and personal style is developed with time." 13. Courageously get to know yourself and your personal style will reveal itself "The more you know who you are as you move through your life, the more you develop your personal style." As I step forward into a new chapter in my own life (more to come on that this summer), I am excited to further fine-tune my personal style. My goal is so that "Every piece of clothing", when you have cultivated your own personal style, "will have a purpose in your wardrobe." It's possible and far easier when we know ourselves and how we enjoy living. 14. Understand the value of timeless style "Women who understand the value of timeless style look amazing all of the time." ~further exploration, listen to/read episode #103: Effortless Style: The Truth (explore further in TSLL's 2nd Book, chapter 11) 15. Don't follow trends Style remains and fashion fades. While we can be inspired or piqued by a new fashion walking down the runway, responding rather than reacting applies just as much to our decisions for our wardrobe as it does to our interactions throughout life with others. Explore this post - Why Not . . . Create Your Own Style Commandments? to strengthen your approach to building your personal style. 16. Sustainable clothing shopping requires wise shopping choices timeless clothes multiple purposes seasonless (when possible) Investing in high quality clothing, paying high price for well-made items made of quality fabric is shopping sustainably. You shop less and you wear the items longer. 17. Your personal brand is introduced through your clothing Branding is communicated by many other factors - our energy, posture, congeniality - but before we even speak, our clothing talks for us. Our sartorial choices are powerful, and as Kamali encourages, "let yours be uniquely you". 18. Organize your closet to excite and focus your attention and save time Kamali suggests organizing your closet to help you edit what you really want to wear and in fact organizes her personal and office closets by color, then by fabric, and then by category: dresses, jumpsuits, tops, jackets, skirts, pants. 19. Purchase multiple items you love and fit well From undergarments to blazers, layering pieces, anything that is timeless, Kamali recommends investing in duplicates. 20. A strong confidence requires less artifice as protection "But with her new book, she hopes to drive home the limits of fashion. 'A dress can only do so much,' she says. 'When you feel good in your body and your mind, you’ll probably spend less on clothes.'" Upon reading the profile of Kamali's book in the WSJ, it was the above quote which resonated with me quite strongly. Yes, we need clothing, I am not one to advocate for sans-clothing living although I know some do and that is perfectly fine for them. Clothing is powerful, but when we rely on our clothing to do the work we need to be doing for ourselves for our mental well-being, we place too much importance on what we are wearing causing unnecessary stress on our mental health and strain on our budget. I wholeheartedly, as readers and listeners know, advocate for investment pieces rather than cheap, clothing (referencing #16), and as we find peace within ourselves, strengthen ourselves with soft skills to improve how we engage with the world, our clothing, while it may introduce us before our words and actions begin, becomes secondary. Meaning, we can wear the same outfit more often without worry, we can stick to our personal uniform with confidence knowing it works with our lifestyle, and we can feel good in the clothing we have chosen further supporting us as we live how we had hoped in our dreams we could one day experience in real life: with great purpose, with deep joy and true contentment. WORK "Be independent; learn how to earn your own way. Then you can choose someone you love versus someone to take care of you." 21. Explore your dreams for your life journey "The wonderful thing about a dream is that it is limitless and it is free, and it can become the path to your purpose." Let persistent curiosity be your guide to where your purpose will be discovered. Kamali writes, "invest in your future now" even if you don't know what it will lead to or the potential it will present down the road. Simply invest because you are genuinely curious and let tomorrow reveal what it will. 22. Empower other women, don't compete "Girls compete, women empower." Citing insecurity and a lack of self-esteem as the cause of fear which then leads to a scarcity mindset prompting competition, when we step forward instead as women with strong self-esteem paired with generosity, there is no need to compete because we are secure in our ability, excited to learn more and willing to help as we can those who look to us with inquiry. 23. Do something that scares you In so doing, you keep your mind sharp. Stretch your mind, learn something new, attempt something you've never thought of yourself doing, yet when presented with the opportunity, your curiosity is piqued. Try it, give it a go and who knows what doors or windows or ahas will open. 24. Respect in your field will take time "Respect is like money, you have to earn it." Your reason for pursuing your chosen career will determine your longevity. If your purpose comes from within, you will have the perseverance to ride the waves of questioning and/or doubt others in the field may have of your ideas. Stay true to your core purpose, be open to learning, flexible with the journey forward and how it unfolds, and in time, and in a moment most unexpected, you will realize you have garnered the respect of the field you so devoted yourself to. 25. Deal with your 'failures' well and your future will be bright "Allow yourself a limited amount of time to recount the events that led to failure and to assess the damage. Take responsibility, look at the options for your next steps, get advice, then get on you feet and know you are not alone in failure." 26. "Do it for joy and you can do it forever" As shared in #24, what motivates you to pursue the career or caling you find yourself and have chosen to remain or step into anew from another career that didn't quite fit will determine your longevity. When I sit down to write, it fuels me. When I am tasked with other jobs I have done for pay, I am drained. Listen to this for your own energy sources to determine whether or not you are pursuing what is best for you. BEAUTY "Authenticity Enhanced is my beauty preference, since being me is definitely easier than trying to look like someone else." Enhance who you are and only use makeup (after caring for your skin well) for definition, "not to hide or disguise or hide the real you". 27. Take care of your skin The French have taught me many lessons, and this is one of them: tend to your skin and your makeup need only be minimal and secondary. I have written quite a bit on this topic, so I will list the post to explore for more detail (and list of recommended skincare brands and products) below: 13 French Beauty Products I Love and Recommend 22 French Beauty Secrets worth the Investment in either time or money, episode #258 15 of My Favorite Skincare Products Let's Talk About Beauty, episode #102 28. Take pride in your individuality "Being the author of your own life is far more interesting than imitating another's life." ~7 Components for Building a Signature Style 29. Exercise for beautiful skin "Sweat for glowing skin and to release toxins." ~Why Not . . . Treat Your Body Like a Temple? 30. Leave the nails unpainted "Natural, unpainted manicures are healthy and maintain a timeless look." I have been leaving my own fingernails unpainted for, well, for all of my adult life and prior to actually as well. However, I just recently began going sans color when I give myself a pedicure. I am loving it. Less to purchase, but it forces me to care well for my overall health and directly, my nails. While I sit down every two weeks for my at-home pedicure and tend to my fingernails every week, my choice surprised me as I wear sandals frequently in the summer, but it simply means, I will know my nails are healthy and that all is well. 31. Drink green tea for your skin An antioxidant for the skin, Kamali shares she drinks one or two cups of green tea every day. With multiple benefits, green tea can calm redness and inflammation and protect the skin from free radical damage, and even the small amount of caffeine in green tea can help reduce puffiness around the eyes. There are so many wonderful green teas. Currently in my tea cupboard are Vert Provence from Mariage Fréres and a variety of green teas from Palais des Thés. Kamali's green tea mask recipe (use in #32 for your at-home facial): (1) place a paper towel on a dinner plate; (2) pour a small amount of freshly brewed cool or room-temperature green tea on the paper towel; (3) drain any excess liquid; (4) lie back with your head on a towel and place the paper towel over your face; (5) relax and breathe in a meditative manner; (6) remove when you are ready and pat dry your face. 32. Give yourself at-home facials in-between your seasonal or bi-monthly facials at the spa Begin with a cleansing your face well (I use Caudalie's makeup removing facial cleanser which is 100% natural and vegan) Use a simple natural scrub using olive oil and sugar or sea salt, provide a steam treatment by sitting near a steamer (if you have one) or draping a towel over your head above a bowl of hot water - keep your face about 6-12 inches above the water). Then apply a facial masque best suited for your skin - I highly recommend any masques (or products) from Eminence Organic Skincare. My facial cleanser MAKE IT HAPPEN 33. Commit "The minute you reflect upon what your purpose is in this lifetime, you can commit to it, and the esaier it will be to maintain focus and stay on course." Committing occurs when we take action beyond ourselves. The conversation steps outside of our minds, we hand in the job application, turn in the resignation letter, purchase the lease, apply for the loan, say yes, say no. Following any one of these decisions, we are in it. Sure we could back out, but we've already made one of the most difficult decisions and aren't you curious to see how it can unfold if only you would put your whole heart into it? I just made a commitment last week which put a long-held dream into motion (I will share more concretely what it is later this summer), and yes, there is fear and trepidiation, but I do my best not to hang out with these emotions for too long because I have much more excitement I now have the opportunity to full embody and explore. Live your life on purpose for a purpose which will make you come to life and you will be, as Norma Kamali states from the beginning, invincible. ~Read Norma Kamali's highly inspiring and motivating book I Am Invincible Petit Plaisir —Italian Furlane Slippers from SantM.co ~functional luxury footwear ~handmade with velvet and slip-resistant rubber soles just as the gondolieri have worn on their Venetian boats.
