Episode SummaryErin and Rachel travel 700 years into the future to discuss WALL-E (2008), Pixar's robot romance with an unintentionally anti-capitalist message. Fatphobia and misogyny make this dystopian tale unwatchable despite its endearing protagonist, striking animation, and moments of nostalgia. Episode BibliographyThe 81st Academy Awards | 2009.

This week's episode of Leadership is Feminine is a little different. Kris Plachy offers a compelling call to action for team members everywhere to take ownership of their well-being and personal power in the workplace. Rather than placing full trust in employers to manage our financial, mental, or emotional health, Kris invites listeners to reexamine what it means to be self-led, informed, and intentional about their lives and careers. This episode is a powerful reminder that relying solely on an employer for your sense of security can be a risky trade. Kris shares her own journey—from getting her first job at 14—to explore the historical and cultural shifts that shaped the modern workplace. She breaks down why the system evolved the way it did and challenges the long-standing belief that employers should be the primary caretakers of their people's lives outside of work. Kris advocates for reclaiming agency and reminds us, “You were born as this capable human who is infinitely more powerful than she or he may believe... and I just want to invite you to consider that there might be another way to think about who you are, and how you accept personal responsibility for the results you get in your life.” Through honest reflection and practical insight, she urges listeners to invest in their own financial, mental, and emotional literacy. It's not about rejecting work—it's about refusing to outsource your power. If you're ready to shift from dependency to empowerment, this episode offers the mindset reset you didn't know you needed. Tune in and discover what it means to truly lead yourself first. Key Takeaways From This Episode Personal Agency in Employment: Importance of not placing well-being in the hands of an employer. Evolution of Employment Benefits: Critique of societal beliefs about employer responsibilities. Impact of Societal Beliefs About Employers: Relinquishing personal agency and a drop in financial literacy. Call for a New Perspective and Responsibility in Employment: Encouragement to manage personal health, financial, and emotional well-being Contact Information and Recommended Resources Join Kris to help impact 20 Million Women across the Globe!

Hello Lovelies - Weekly Writing Podcast For Writers by Author Rachel Cooper
Hello Lovelies,As we move into 2025, the concept of Sustainable Authorship is becoming more important than ever. With the fast-paced, digital-first environment many of us operate in, the challenges of maintaining a healthy work-life balance while pursuing a successful writing career can feel overwhelming.In today's blog post, we're going to dive into the strategies that help authors maintain their well-being—both mentally and physically—while building long-lasting careers. We'll also share inspiring stories from authors who have found ways to sustain success over the long term.Let's talk about what it really means to be a sustainable author in 2025!Strategies for Maintaining a Healthy Work-Life BalanceOne of the toughest challenges authors face is maintaining the delicate balance between their creative work and personal life. It's easy to get caught up in the demands of writing, marketing, publishing, and social media. Before you know it, you might find yourself facing burnout. So, how can we juggle all of these tasks without sacrificing our health or relationships?1. Set Clear Boundaries for Your Writing TimeMany authors who write full-time from home struggle with this, but it's important to set boundaries around your writing time. Schedule your writing hours just like you would a regular job, and make sure that when your writing time is over, you step away.This means no answering emails, editing, or writing “just one more page” late into the night. Creating boundaries ensures that you're giving yourself time to unwind and recharge, which leads to better creativity and productivity in the long run.2. Take Time for Other Creative OutletsWriting is a deeply creative process, but sometimes authors forget that creativity extends beyond the written word. Engaging in other creative activities—whether it's drawing, playing music, or gardening—can help give your brain a break from writing while still allowing you to tap into that creative energy. Diversifying your creative outlets can be a fun way to prevent burnout while still staying connected to your passion.3. Break Tasks Into Manageable PiecesIt's easy to feel overwhelmed by a big writing project, especially if you're juggling multiple responsibilities. To combat this, break your tasks into smaller, more manageable pieces. Whether it's drafting a chapter or editing a specific scene, setting mini-goals can help you feel a sense of progress without becoming overwhelmed by the enormity of the project.The Importance of Mental and Physical Well-Being for AuthorsWriting, for many of us, is not only a career but also a deeply personal endeavor. However, the solitary nature of the work and the pressure to constantly produce can take a toll on both our mental and physical well-being. Here are some ways to take care of yourself holistically as an author.1. Prioritize Mental HealthWriting can be emotionally draining, and it's important to keep an eye on your mental health. If you find that stress, anxiety, or self-doubt are creeping in, consider talking to a mental health professional or practicing mindfulness techniques like meditation or journaling. Taking care of your mind is just as important as hitting your word count for the day.It's also crucial to remember that it's okay to take breaks. Sometimes, stepping away from a project for a little while can actually be the most productive thing you do. Giving your brain time to rest and process can lead to breakthroughs when you come back refreshed.2. Stay Physically ActiveAuthors spend a lot of time sitting, and this sedentary lifestyle can have negative effects on your health. Try to incorporate physical activity into your daily routine. Whether it's taking a walk, practicing yoga, or hitting the gym, staying active will improve not only your physical health but also your mental clarity and mood.Many successful authors swear by using the Pomodoro technique (which we've discussed in previous posts) to manage both their work and physical well-being. For example, after 25-30 minutes of writing, take a 5-minute break to stretch, walk around, or do a quick physical task. These small bursts of movement will keep you from getting stiff and help you return to your writing with renewed energy.3. Connect with a CommunityWriting doesn't have to be a completely solitary experience. Find a community of fellow writers where you can share experiences, offer support, and get feedback. Whether it's through social media, a local writing group, or online communities, staying connected can help combat feelings of isolation and give you much-needed encouragement.Stories of Successful, Long-Term AuthorsNow, let's take a look at some inspiring examples of authors who have managed to build sustainable careers. What did they do right, and how can we learn from their success?1. Joanna PennJoanna Penn is a well-known self-published author who writes both fiction and non-fiction, but she's also an advocate for author well-being. Penn often speaks about the importance of diversifying your income streams, such as creating non-fiction books, podcasts, and courses. She also emphasizes the need for authors to take time to replenish their creative well through travel, reading, and time off. By focusing on building a creative business that allows for flexibility and freedom, she has sustained a long and fruitful career.2. Bella AndreBella Andre is a powerhouse in the world of self-publishing, having sold millions of copies of her contemporary romance novels. One of the keys to Andre's long-term success is her consistent release schedule, which keeps her fans engaged without overwhelming herself with deadlines. Andre also prioritizes work-life balance, ensuring that she takes time away from her career to focus on family and personal well-being. By doing so, she avoids burnout while continuing to write bestselling novels year after year.3. Mark DawsonMark Dawson, another highly successful self-published author, has achieved longevity in his writing career by diversifying his projects and creating a self-publishing podcast that helps other authors navigate the industry. Dawson emphasizes the importance of building a strong author brand and focusing on long-term relationships with readers. By combining his writing with educational content and maintaining a steady flow of books, Dawson has created a sustainable career that continues to thrive.Final ThoughtsAs authors, our success is not just about how many books we sell or how quickly we can churn out content. Sustainable authorship is about finding the balance between our creative work and our personal well-being. It's about creating a life that allows us to keep doing what we love for the long haul—without sacrificing our health or happiness.By setting clear boundaries, staying active, nurturing our mental health, and learning from the success of others, we can ensure that our writing careers are not only successful but also fulfilling for many years to come.Discussion Questions* How do you maintain a healthy work-life balance as an author?* What strategies have helped you stay mentally and physically well during your writing career?* Have you ever experienced burnout from writing, and how did you overcome it?* What role does your writing community play in your overall well-being as an author?* What long-term goals do you have for sustaining your writing career?

This episode dives deep into Libra season and the Autumnal Equinox. We explore the basics and the nuances of shadow season, and the balancing act it calls for. We'll explore the powerful connection to Lilith and Aphrodite and, as always, practical steps to harness Libra's energy for growth and well-being. The Autumnal Equinox occurs September 22nd in the Northern Hemisphere, when the Sun enters Libra. It's a time of decreased energy, encouraging restoration and reflection. It marks the beginning of "shadow season." It seeks balance, harmony, and neutrality. Channelled Guidance This season is about seeking balance and integration that will shake out by December 22nd. Themes include harmony, empowered communication, and emotional healing. The Super New Moon Eclipse in Libra on October 2nd encourages self-love and stepping into your power. The Full Moon in Aries on October 17th ignites healed wounds of worthiness and leadership qualities. This is a time for deep transformation and letting go of outdated narratives. Embrace the concept of "Lilith Language" - using your words to establish boundaries and express your needs. Libra Season (September 22nd - October 21st) Libra is represented by the scales of justice and ruled by Venus. This season can also be deeply connected to Lilith. Key themes: balance, relationships, communication, beauty, and advocacy. Libra asks: Is this or that fair? And fair to whom? Balanced Libra Energy Strives for equity and fairness in all areas of life. Expresses beauty, love, and sensuality in a grounded way. Uses clear communication and diplomacy to navigate challenges. Imbalanced Libra Energy Avoids making decisions due to fear of being wrong. Resorts to people-pleasing and self-abandonment. Uses excessive charm and superficiality to mask deeper issues. How to Balance Your Libra Energy Cultivate self-love and equity in all relationships in your life. Learn to walk your talk and be comfortable with boundaries. Advocate for yourself and others. Embrace your voice and unique perspective. Use "glamor magic" - expressing yourself authentically through appearance and presentation. Hydration and Physical Wellbeing in Libra Season Libra is associated with the kidneys, so proper hydration is crucial. Aim to drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily. Add a teaspoon of pink salt to water for electrolyte balance. Get on the mat at UnicornWellnessStudio.com Practical Tips for Libra Season Ground yourself with movement, nature, and root vegetables. Maintain consistent exercise routines. Eat green and purple vegetables for enhanced communication. Wear necklaces, scarves, and malas to amplify your voice. Use the word "fuck" to clear your throat chakra (seriously!). Experiment with a clean girl aesthetic or explore a darker, more gothic expression. Shift "I'm sorry" to "thank you" to break the habit of apologizing for existence. Embrace scents like lily, vanilla, and lavender. Work with crystals like rose quartz, black tourmaline, and amethyst.

She made this switch as a result of what she learned during her own recovery and years of frustration watching traditional wisdom surrounding healthy eating and weight loss, fail most people.The problem, as she says, is that our brains control everything – our thoughts, habits, beliefs and behaviors – all the things that determine our results – but we've been ignoring them.Roni is on a mission to help people rewire their minds - to focus on behavior and habit modification at the brain level. She works to empower women to release weight, food and body shame, to learn to love and accept their bodies and to break free from a diet culture that she says is built upon shame, fear, and distrust in ourselves. It feeds on our insecurities and fuels the story that we are only worthy of love, acceptance and goodness if a scale displays the “right” number or we eat the “right” things.To that end, she's created The Cognitive Eating Academy – the first program of its kind to incorporate the science of mindfulness, intuitive eating and cognitive behavioral strategies to help lifelong dieters go from weight food and scale obsessed to happy, healthy and free. She's also currently writing a second book, contributes to sites like Tiny Buddha, Having Time and other popular blogs, hosts workshops, group programs, online courses and is wildly passionate about helping people rebuild self-trust, compassion, connection and heal their relationships with food, themselves and their bodies. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/new-mind-creator/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/new-mind-creator/support

This show is for you if: You struggle with stress, worry, and anxiety, and want to learn how to manage your mind before it affects your health. You feel like you're not good enough and want to build confidence in yourself. You want to take control of your finances and feel calm and at peace with your money. In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Franchelle Caesar, a financial coach who challenges conventional financial methods and supports and celebrates spenders. After paying off over $600,000 in debt, she retired from medicine to become The Financial Coach for Spenders. Her program teaches you how to manage money WITHOUT a budget. We'll be discussing the connection between our mental health and our finances and how taking control of our money can spill over into other areas of our lives. Key Point 1: The connection between our mental health and finances Dr. Caesar shares her experience as a doctor, noticing the connection between stress and illness. She believes that our thoughts about money can affect our mental health and lead to behaviors that don't serve us. By taking control of our finances, we can change our thoughts and behaviors, leading to a healthier mindset and overall wellbeing. Key Point 2: Building confidence through financial empowerment Taking control of our finances can help us build confidence in ourselves. We often carry stories that we're not good enough or don't do things right, which can affect our behaviors and overall identity. By breaking free from these stories and taking action with our money, we can build confidence in ourselves and extend that confidence to other areas of our lives. Key Point 3: Spillover effect of financial empowerment When we take control of our money, it spills over into other areas of our lives. We can have better conversations about money and set boundaries in other areas of our lives. The practices we develop with our money spill over into our overall health and wellbeing, leading to positive changes in our behaviors and mindset.

Why You Need a Vision for Your Marriage - with Gaby Sundra Having a vision for your marriage is essential if you want to go the distance. Plus, a marriage vision is a helpful tool that can keep you and your spouse on the right track. Today's guest, Gaby Sundra has created her own playbook that helps couples create a long lasting marriage that will thrive as they create a vision for their marriage. Creating a vision is about two people coming together, discussing their desires and goals, and working together to build something beautiful. In this episode, Gaby shares tools and tips on how you can start creating a vision in your marriage today. Ownership, Compassion & Creativity We all know marriage takes a lot of work. The magic comes in identifying the work that is helpful to making your relationship thrive. The start of creating the vision for your marriage begins with Gaby's acronym OCC that stands for ownership, compassion, and creativity. Each person in the relationship typically has their own healing to do in order to show up as the best partner. This is what it means to take ownership of your own “stuff.” It's also important that you own your needs and desires. Compassion starts with you giving yourself compassion and then your partner too. Gaby said, “Express compassion for their experience.” When you are able to show your partner a little compassion, it lets them know that you are there to support them. Creativity comes into play when solving issues in the marriage. Creative thinking can be used to give some options as couples work together and through the problem. Creating a Vision for your Marriage Imagine if you could create a vision for your marriage. It's SO possible to create a blueprint of what you want your marriage to look like and create that in real life. Often times we focus on what the problem is and not what we want to happen. Creating a vision is about defining what you want the marriage to look like. When you stop focusing on the story of what you don't want and focus on the need you want met, the vision can start to come alive. Creating a vision for your marriage is all about getting super clear on what you both desire as a couple, writing it down, and speaking it into existence. It takes work from each partner to fully embody the vision that you see for your marriage. Human Needs in a Relationship What are your needs in your relationship? Marshall Rosenberg says there are seven basic needs; Connection, Physical Well-Being, Honesty, Play, Peace, Autonomy, Meaning. Gaby said, “All conflict is, is us struggling to get our needs met. If we can get away from the story and move into the need we want to have met, that is the essence that's trying to work through the conflict.” Rather than expecting your partner to be a mind reader knowing what your needs are, tell them your needs! When we can communicate what we want, how we want it, and what we desire, it can help create that vision in your marriage. A Marriage Vision that Honor your Desires Your desires mean something good about you. When you can communicate what you desire in your marriage, this will help get clear on your vision for marriage. Gaby said, “The word I hear most often when couples share their visions is, ‘relief.'” This relief is created because couples can actually get on the same page of where they want their marriage to go. Honoring your desires is an act of self love and an act of love in the marriage. Two people can come together and build something so beautiful and sacred when they get clear on each of their desires, create a vision for your marriage and grow.
