What to Listen For:Today, Stacy, Robin, and Crystal explore a bit of a different—but no less important—topic: practicing self-care and chasing your dreams!Building a successful career or business doesn't have to come at the expense of your physical and mental well-being. The key to achieving so-called “work-life integration?” Setting boundaries. As our hosts discuss, anybody can create the life of their dreams by getting clear on their values, priorities, and, of course, their self-care non-negotiables.One of the strategies they share is setting aside mental space amid your busy schedule. With productive downtime, you'll be able to mentally map out your to-dos for life, business, and dog training.Combine this with a progression plan with a view toward long-term goals. If you're building a brand for your business, it's vital to regularly collect feedback from your audience so that you know how best to provide value. And prepare to go through a lot of trial and error. You'll have to throw a lot of darts to get to the bullseye, but as you get better, you become more strategic about which darts to throw.But even the most well-thought-out plans go nowhere without this final piece of the puzzle: “The one critical piece that has to happen if you want to pursue your dreams, is to make a decision.”If that decision is to quit your corporate job in order to dive headfirst into your dream business, for example, you have no choice but to take the leap sooner or later, then follow through on your commitment.Stacy, Robin, and Crystal set our minds at ease by reminding us that, if you have a vision, it doesn't have to be crystal clear before you make that fateful decision. Often, it's just a matter of finding your “why” and responding to that unquenchable thirst for more in life.Key Topics:What did our hosts do to overhaul their lifestyles and prioritize their wellness?

In this episode of the Social Lights Podcast, podcast host and Social Mediology founder Kate vanderVoort chats with Kara Cronin, community manager, relationship builder and renowned public speaker. Kara is the Community Manager of Community Partnerships at Facebook and is leading the community experience for the Facebook Certified Community Manager program. About Kara Kara has been building community since the age of 6. She fell in love with community building while working as a Sorority Leadership Consultant, and continued pursuing her passion while leading communities at theSkimm and Shine. Kara is now a Community Manger at Facebook where she's using her experience in community building, content creation, grassroots marketing, and event strategy to give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together. She has coached collegiate women to lead award-winning sorority chapters; cultivated a brand ambassador army responsible for 20% of audience growth; led campaigns to educate and motivate over 200,000 people to cast an informed vote in the 2018 midterm election; and connected millions of people across the globe with support, strategies, and resources to prioritize their mental health as members the world's largest self-care community. Kara has been a keynote speaker at the CMX Summit and SocialFresh conferences, a panellist at Be Social Change and Dreamers / Doers, a facilitator for Alpha Delta Pi and LeaderShape, as well as a mentor for FindSpark and Get Sh!t Done Accelerator programs. BIG IDEA 1 “We're in an age of authenticity where people are really supporting the brands and organisations, that customers not only believe in, but are really aligned with, whether it's based on their values or the organisations that they support.” (12:33) Kara says there are so many opportunities for brands and organizations right now to create communities that it's hard to pick just a couple to talk about. She says we're in an age of authenticity where people are really supporting the brands and organisations, that customers not only believe in, but are really aligned with whether it's based on their values or the organizations that they support. It feels different than it did even five - ten years ago in terms of people aren't just buying the big brand anymore, they're buying from the people that really feel authentic and that they feel connected to. She says community, especially a digital community, can just be such an amazing tool to showcase that authenticity, to connect with your consumer and community on a regular basis in a way that's real.  BIG IDEA 2 “Connecting the community members with each other is the most important thing.” (21:13) On the topic of learning how to become a community manager, Kara says connecting community members with each other is the most important thing, especially in a learning group. Because social learning is so important, that peer support, is essential for community managers. To be able to give them a community and provide them with people who get it and can help them along the way, to help them feel supported and help them learn. She says that's why the Facebook Community Manager Certification Learning Group has learning mentors who support the learners in this group. They're there to share personal experiences, host study sessions and answer questions to make sure that people feel like they have someone behind them cheering them on. She says that because not anyone can get certified, to know that not only are you putting in the work, but you have this group of people behind you that really want to see you succeed is important. So, the Facebook Community Manager Certification Learning Group has the learning mentor program set up to help with that. Everything is organised. So if people want to go in and learn at their own pace, they can go through the guides and get directed to all the learning materials very easily.  BIG IDEA 3 “Know why you're starting

Available on iTunes, Soundcloud, Stitcher + Google Play [Tweet "You're allowed to dream new dreams." -Jessica Lauren"]Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to be an actress. So I did what most aspiring young artists do-- I uprooted my life and moved away from my family and friends to pursue my acting career. I invested tens of thousands of dollars on headshots, classes, the whole nine. I went to audition after audition and heard hundreds of “Nos” until 2015. In 2015 my luck finally changed and I started booking major acting gigs, but guess what? I wasn't all that happy.You see, 2015 was also the same year that I started NoRealJewelry.Com and what started out as just a creative outlet for me quickly turned into my new found passion. My little blog showed me that there were other sides to me. I wasn't just an actress like I thought I was my whole life. I discovered that deep down inside of me I was also a writer, a photographer, an encourager and many other things. So my dreams began to shift drastically. Being on stage, reading new scripts and auditioning no longer appealed to me. I was more interested in building a community of Dreamers + Doers and turning my "hobby" into a full-fledged business.In today's episode of The Sunday Jumpstart Podcast, I get super real and vulnerable about the new direction I'm taking in my life + how scary it is to give up on the one dream and goal i've had my whole entire life! This week I got an email that was super scary but was just what I needed to let go + move forward on my new journey and that's what inspired today's episode.So if you're anything like me and at a point in your life where your spirit has been itching to switch gears and you're ready to change direction or pivot in your goals, life or career--then this episode is for you!Topics Discussed In Today's Episode: Identifying if you're ready to change direction or pivot.

Or I let other people's fears talk me out of something I was excited about.Do you ever wake up with a bright idea or with a goal to make a change in your life? Something that God put on your heart that makes you excited and feel like you have a purpose for your life? What happens when you share this with your mama, sister, cousin, best friend and they scrutinize it? Your dream shrivels up and dies under their shortsightedness.We all get excited to share our ideas and our visions, but sometimes in order to protect their growth, we have to shhhh. There are times when you're chasing your dreams, you have to shut your mouth. You can't go around telling everybody everything because they don't see what you see.

It's loud and insistent and sometimes if I'm not careful, it swallows me up whole. I'll begin to believe it. It affects the way I run my business. Sometimes I won't hit "publish" on an article or pitch a sponsor because that voice will whisper; "Jess you're just not good enough".

Even widespread power outages couldn't stop Episode 96 of our weekly live podcast from happening.  We lost one guest due to the reschedule due to travel commitments, but we were joined by some really great guests for some fun discussions about everything from best practices with making and using video, an event next week that you should check out, a new dry cleaning service that'll pick up and deliver not just for you but for companies as well, as well as some stories and items around the city... As our 1996 based intro closed out, we got rolling with the latest news, events and items that have caught our eyes over the past week.  Naturally we talked a little bit about the power outage that caused us to roll on a Tuesday night instead of our usual Mondays.  Good times.  As noted, we lost one of our guests in the midst of the chaos due to travel requirements, but we'll have him back on as soon as his schedule permits. We chatted about our event tomorrow (Thursday) night over at Blackfinn.  As always, we'll be in the back room starting at 5pm, and we're looking forward to seeing everyone there. Details can be found here on the site - http://www.itinthed.com/meet/, on our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/ITinTheD, or in our Meetup group - http://www.meetup.com/ITintheD/ We talked about the (and we use this term loosely) "hacking" story coming out of Major League Baseball, the OPM breach that has an impact on anyone who's ever had a security clearance or any of their references, more fun and humor with Amazon product reviews and more. For segment two, we talked with Scott and Kris from Make Moore Media.  From working with Herman Moore of the Lions to our own "What Is IT in the D" video, these guys have done some great work since launching and we couldn't be happier for them.  A good series of conversations about best practices with video, what's realistic and what isn't, why "4k" is the buzzword causing migraines and more. Check them out at http://makemooremedia.com/ In our next segment, we talked with the guys from YumVillage about the Professional's Night Out - Detroit event taking place next week.  Kicking off its inaugural year, Professional's Night Out (PNO) will provide a semi-formal networking and dining experience for you, the entrepreneur, the working professional, the creative, the foodie. A first of its kind, 3-part indoor + outdoor event, PNO will exclusively bring super-achievers from across Detroit, together for the dual purpose of connecting and building with world-changing thinkers and innovators, as well as experiencing and enjoying some great eats and art. The evening will kick off with our Innovator's Meet & Greet, presented by Dreamers+Doers, which will run from 6:30 p.m. - 8 p.m., followed up by our Dining With Doers Dinner Party, from 8 p.m. - 10 p.m. and close out the night with our Dessert Afterglow.  Check them out at http://www.pnodetroit.com/, and use discount code ITintheD to take $15 off the ticket price! Our last segment dove in with the guys from Dryv, a new Uber-esque dry-cleaning service that's just launching here in the area.  They come to your house, pick everything up, get it cleaned, and then bring it back to you...without killing you with a heavy price markup thanks to their model and volume based relationships.  They're also offering programs for companies and their employees, so you should definitely talk to your HR folks about a setting up a new office perk.  They're still building out their service areas, and you can help shape things by grabbing the app and signing up at http://dryv.com/detroit/, and best of all, they went ahead and setup an ITintheD discount code while we were on the air with them so you can get rolling on the cheap.  Check them out at http://dryv.com/detroit/ And just as a little bonus, we had Daily Detroit in the house talking about some of their latest stories, info around the city, and more.  Check them out at http://www.
