Our choices create our life, not our circumstances. And it is never too late to choose again.   INVICTUS by William Ernest Henley Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.   In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed.   Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid.   It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.     IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT: Shayla’s background, moving to LA to pursue a career in acting + hustling to support herself while chasing her dream Losing herself in an abusive relationship, trying to leave for five years but always feeling sucked back in How Shayla finally left the relationship and refocused all of her energy on her Self How she rebuilt her life from the ground up by facing her shadows but focusing on the light How yoga went from being her place to escape from her reality to being her actual reality How she started her blog and what she did to create her dream life The power of taking a leap of faith and investing everything you have into yourself Plus much more…   RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Mentioned: Alo Yoga Invictus by William Henley You Are A Bad Ass by Jen Sincero You Are A Bad Ass At Making Money by Jen Sincero   Connect with Shayla: Website: Namastshay Instagram: @shaylaquinn YouTube: NamastShay Pinterest: NamastShay     QUOTES “When things would get really bad I would go to my mat to try to find the answers. Just as quickly as I would find them, I didn’t feel strong enough to actually do anything about it.”   “Yoga was my passive way of escaping but not actually admitting that I needed to escape, but just being like, I’m going to class.”   “There was a point where I really felt like my only option was to just not be here anymore. It felt like I had dug myself in such a deep hole of shit with him, and there were things that I experienced that I thought that I could never get over. I just sat there for a while and thought long and hard about it and there was something inside of me that said you have to try one more time.”   “I was like, how am I going to get out of this? I need to get more involved in yoga. I want to start my blog. I need to keep myself busy. I am not going to live alone. I am going to just try to focus all of my energy on the things that feel good and bring me joy and hopefully by doing that I will get past this.”     LET’S CONNECT Website: Bryannadee.com Instagram: @bryanna_dee Facebook: Facebook.com/bryannadee Pinterest: Pinterest.com/bryannadee/

Today’s guest, Shayla Boyd-Gill is a wife and mother of 6 home schooled children. It sounds inconceivable at first that any successful business owner could have that many children AND homeschool them as well. But Shayla pulls it off beautifully. She says that her family has actually been the support system that helped her stick with her businesses during the times when she wanted to quit. As her business began to thrive, others began to notice the success she was having and many asked for her help as they pursued their business ideas. She’s grown a deep passion to support family oriented women entrepreneurs find the sweet spot in their businesses. Today’s episode will provide you a great insight into a great woman. Your first step is to make the decision to get to the place you want. There is a natural tendency to approach a new thing with a tentative approach. You don’t fully know what you’re dealing with yet, it’s natural. But Shayla Boyd-Gill says that it doesn’t matter if you’re stepping into a new area, you need to move into it confidently, clear about what you want to accomplish. You’ve got to make the decision to succeed long before you have the opportunity. That’s how you’ll be able to see the opportunities when they arrive. That’s how you’ll be able to step into them and take action when they do. You’ll be inspired by Shayla’s approach to her business, so be sure you listen to this episode. If you can sell your family, you can sell anyone. Many women entrepreneurs see their dreams of growing a successful business as being at odds with the rich family life they want to have. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Shayla Boyd-Gill has learned that your family can actually be your biggest source of support and encouragement while building your business, you just need to know how to get them on board with the vision of what you want to accomplish. Her philosophy is that if you can sell your family, you can sell anything. It’s an affirmation that you’re truly dialing in to the right things. Use your calendar to keep you aligned with your goals. Shayla Boyd-Gill homeschools 6 children, has a rich relationship with her husband, and runs a very successful business. How does she do it all? One of her greatest tools is her calendar. She’s learned to put everything - even her tasks - on her calendar. It helps her easily keep track of what her priorities are for each day and forces her to track her time for greater productivity. She’s able to set aside work when the time comes to be done each day because she’s already committed to working hard during the hours she has. So her evenings are free for her family and her early mornings are free for herself. You can hear more about how Shayla uses her calendar for greater productivity on this episode. You need to have people around you to keep you on track with your greatest value. In any business there are hundreds of things to do each day and none of them are trivial. But as the business owner and primary visionary you can’t be the one to do them all. You’ve got to bring a team around you to support your vision and enable you to work on the things that only you can do, the things that move the business forward.
