In This Episode You Will Learn About: Needing connection more than ever Finding out what makes you happy Having commitment over motivation How to accept feedback and filter it Being true to yourself Writing down your ideas   Resources: allinbyteddi.com Instagram: instagram.com/teddimellencamp Listen: allinbyteddi.com/podcast instagram.com/drinklitepink   Show Notes: Whether you love or hate the show Real Housewives, you have definitely heard of it. And that probably means you’ve heard of today’s guest Teddi Mellencamp. We met at a personal development conference a few years ago and I learned about her health program, ALL IN by Teddi. Her current profession as an accountability coach and fitness influencer arose from her desire to help others achieve healthier lifestyles after discovering a tried-and-true way to unleash your best self. We talk about the different things that she’s dealt with while filming the show, the different life challenges we are facing right now, and how you can have a strong backbone and get clear about what’s important right now, and how to keep moving forward no matter what.   Question Highlights: How is the pandemic we’re going through now going to affect the way you make decisions moving forward? What are the conversations like in your household? Does your mind compartmentalize all of your accomplishments? What is true for you around purpose or creating purpose? How has seeing people change during your program changed you? What’s a strength that has moved you forward in your life? What’s on the other side of being authentic? How do you decide what is good feedback and what isn’t? How do you filter the criticism and feedback you get? How do you detach yourself from other people’s opinions? What is one of the biggest learning lessons for you?   Guest Bio: Born in Bloomington, Indiana and raised in Hilton Head Island, SC, Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave made a name for herself at a young age as a competitive equestrian, later incorporating that fierce competitive drive and spirit into her current profession as a much sought out lifestyle and accountability coach, as well as tackling the ups and downs of filming The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Teddi’s love of horses and the sport of equestrian started at the age of 4, as she soon found herself traveling all around the country to compete in various prestigious horse shows with the venerable Don Stewart Stables. She quickly rose through the ranks to be awarded several national championships, culminating with Teddi winning the stakes class at Madison Square Garden in her final year competing as a Junior. Teddi relocated to Los Angeles at 17 where she worked at CAA and UTA before returning to her passion of equestrian riding and training. In 2009, she was named World Champion Hunter Rider winner as an emerging professional. But after having kids, Teddi went from professional to amateur and currently competes on horses owned by Balmoral Farms; in 2016 she was named Reserve Champion World Champion Hunter Rider in the Adult Hunters category. Teddi’s current profession as an accountability coach and fitness influencer arose from her desire to help others achieve healthier lifestyles after discovering a tried-and-true way to unleashing your best self. Struggling with a fluctuating weight her entire life, Teddi found after her second pregnancy and 80lb gain that the weight didn’t come off as easily as it once did. Her riding career had taken a backseat to motherhood and the life/ work balance just wasn’t there for her. She realized that she needed to change her lifestyle, find her passion and really hold herself accountable for her actions to develop a healthier way of living. All IN by Teddi first started out as Teddi reviewing various fitness classes in the Los Angeles area on Instagram. As she worked to get fit, her following grew and her purpose quickly morphed into Teddi giving fitness advice and urging her followers to become the best versions of themselves possible through self-accountability. While not a certified fitness instructor or nutritionist, Teddi developed a program that gets results for anyone and works with her clients to see them through their struggles to become happier and healthier. All IN has become the next burgeoning lifestyle brand, with Teddi now managing 40 coaches, all of whom have gone through the program, with a roster of clients across the US and Canada in the 1000s and a continual waitlist. More information on All IN can be found at www.allinbyteddi.com When she’s not being a super mom or changing lives, Teddi can also be seen on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, with her third season due to air this spring. After one season on the show, Teddi instantly connected with the fans due to her strength, positive attitude, and willingness to be open and truthful with her struggles. Not only did this help with her growing business, but it also led to Teddi’s rise as a social media influencer, going from 10K Instagram followers to over 500K in the course of a year, and now over 800K. In 2019 Teddi launched her podcast with iHeartRadio, Teddi Tea Pod. Each episode centers around a different topic that Teddi deep dives into, from open marriages to motherhood and relationships, featuring experts on the subjects to answer all of her burning questions. Teddi and her husband Edwin Arroyave, CEO and founder of Skyline Security Management, Inc., live in Los Angeles and have three children: daughter Slate, son Cruz, and in February welcomed a baby girl. Teddi is also a stepmother to Isabella, Arroyave’s daughter from a previous relationship.

In This Episode You Will Learn About: -Having a generous upbringing -Parenting as an entrepreneur -Attracting better talent through generosity -Inspiring others to do better -The importance of video marketing -Meeting people where they are   Resources: -Learn more at iheartdogs.com -Marshall’s Instagram: instagram.com/marshallmorris -I Heart Dogs Instagram:instagram.com/iheartdogscom   Show Notes: Marshall Morris is the founder of several businesses, but is probably best known for I Heart Dogs. They do giving back better than anyone else I know. We talk about where this generosity came from, why he’s so good at helping others monetize themselves, and all the coming trends in 2020 if you’re planning on selling anything. This is absolutely going to make or break your success in the coming year.   Question Highlights: -How did you come so far so quickly? -How are you parenting so successfully? -What impact has generosity had on your success? -How did you become okay with sharing your success and giving? -Why are you so good at helping others build wealth? -What should we be doing to get our message out there? -Tell me about the art of creating jobs.   Guest Bio: As the son of a hard-working, humble pastor, Marshall was taught early on the value of a hard day’s work. In fact, at a young age, his father would “loan” him out for the weekend to different farmers he did business with to help out (for very little pay). This weekend help wasn’t about making money, however, his father really just wanted to instill in him the value of working hard. And it’s with this same mentality that his dad encouraged Marshall to attend college, but also informed him that it would be his responsibility to pay his own way – as that’s the way he did it. Growing up in an impoverished family, his dad worked hard to pay for his college while attending so he’d never have to take out a loan. Not deterred by this, Marshall joined the military so his schooling could be paid for as he went. He never thought he would be deployed, but then 9/11 happened. Obviously, while deployed Marshall couldn’t attend college so instead he read a lot of books (12 hours a night for a year) so he could continue at least some type of education. Among those books, he found that those focused on business resonated with him the most, and upon returning from his deployment he took it from there. Admittedly having more of a sales mindset from the beginning, he dabbled in real estate but gradually got out of it when the market took a turn. After returning from being deployed, Marshall was presented with the opportunity to help a friend of a friend with advertising sales on an automotive site that was struggling. Knowing very little about the internet, but feeling that this business could go somewhere, he offered to partner with this person. Their goal was to just make some money, make it a success and figure out the sales and marketing along the way with “Google university.” Eventually the company started doing well, and they sold it to a bigger automotive company. It was through networking that he met his now business partner, Justin, who was in internet marketing. Having only a Facebook page, he enlisted the help of Marshall. Both found that their strengths and weaknesses balanced each other and they created the business I Heart Dogs. And the rest is history with other businesses such as I Heart Cats, I Heart Birds (and many more). Marshall and business partner, Justin, excel at building business models and then using those models anywhere. For them and their current niche, they’ve found that the more they do, the more they find opportunity (and who wouldn’t want that?).   Follow me on social media @ChrisWHarder on Instagram and check out www.ForTheLoveOfMoney.com

They weren’t looking to adopt or foster at the time, but they said yes, and their life became all about their new family. During the final stages of the adoption process they experienced an unexpected contested adoption, which meant that they spent over a year and a half in court fighting to keep their family together. In the end the kids were taken from them with 12 hours notice and Ashley and her husband were not even allowed to tell the kids they weren’t coming home. Ashley says the past two years have been filled with her trying to figure out how to find a life again after it was all taken away.

Then one day at the parent teacher conference he overheard his teacher telling his mom that he was so much better at sports than he was at art. Because we gravitate to where we get rewarded, he became an athlete, went to college on a soccer scholarship and made the Olympic Development Program soccer team. Then, a week before Chase graduated college, his grandfather died from a heart attack and left Chase his cameras. Chase started teaching himself how to take pictures and that led to his career as one of the most influential photographers of the past decade, the developer of the first photo app to share images to social networks and the founder of CreativeLive. Now Chase is on a mission to break down myths about what creativity is and who can practice it. He says that when we look at all the decisions we make every day - what you're going to have for dinner, what business that you're going to build - as creative acts, that’s when we understand that we have the agency to create our lives. Question Highlights: How did you come to think of yourself as creative? How do you protect your creative time? How do make space for creativity when you really need to be making money?   Guest Bio: Chase Jarvis is an award-winning artist, entrepreneur, and one of the most influential photographers of the past decade.  He has created campaigns for Apple, Nike, Red Bull and others, was a contributor to the Pulitzer-winning New York Times story Snowfall, and earned an Emmy nomination for his documentary Portrait of a City.

Dr. Morgan spent years trying to avoid the pain of her brother’s death when she was a teenager and one of the ways she did this was by developing an eating disorder. She says she knew there was a problem when she was out on a date and she could not even pay attention to what he was saying because bread had been put on the table. Now she is a therapist and runs an online course for women looking to improve their body image.   Question Highlights: How do we stop yourself getting stuck in fear and worry? What are the phases of grief? How can we accept the pain that comes with all of the beautiful things in life? Where did your passion for helping others come from?  How do we know when we need help? How do we confront our problem, but not get stuck in the problem? Why is body image such a hot spot for you? How can we focus on building our identity outside of our external appearance?  What was the Minnesota starvation study?   Guest Bio: Dr. Morgan Francis is a Doctor of Clinical Psychology, a licensed mental health therapist and the owner of Scottsdale Premier Counseling. Her mission is to break through the mental health shame game. With over 20 years of experience specializing in the treatment of eating disorders and negative body image, Dr. Francis can empower you to make peace with your body and food.  For too long society has been embracing diet culture and pushing you to believe how you look is not good enough. No matter how thin or fit you look, you cannot outrun the pressures that surround you because the transformation of loving and appreciating your body happens internally, not externally. Dr. Francis’ online courses on body image and self-love will help you to take back your life.  Earn Your Happy is a production of Crate Media

In This Episode You Will Learn About: How Alexa got into wrestling How Alexa recovered from eating disorders How Alexa creates safe boundaries for herself and deals with online bullying Alexa’s plans for her future   Resources: Instagram: @alexa_bliss_wwe_ Twitter: @AlexaBliss_WWE The Bliss Project 2020 Chris and Lori’s Become Aligned course   Show Notes: Today my guest on the show is professional wrestler Alexa Bliss. Alexa watched wrestling growing up, then competed as a bodybuilder while she was recovering from eating disorders. Although she got a lucky break to become a wrestler she says really she was training for it her whole life because she’s been in athletics since she was five. In this conversation we talk about online bullying, handling out of control situations and pushing yourself to achieve your goals. What I learnt from interviewing Alexa is that the basic mindset and principles are the same exact across the board, no matter what your dream is. I don't care if you want to start a business. I don't care if you want to be an entrepreneur. I don't care if you want to be a WWE superstar. It is all the same mindset and belief in yourself and connection to other people.   Question Highlights: How did you become a professional wrestler? How did you integrate recovering from eating disorders into your fitness journey?   How do you keep a safe boundary for yourself mentally when you're in the public eye all the time?   What keeps you going in those moments where you don't think there's anything left?   What do you hope teenage girls get from seeing you?   Guest Bio: Alexa has been a driven competitor her entire life, excelling especially in gymnastics and eventually becoming a Division I cheerleader. Alexa even entered the world of competitive bodybuilding, where she became one of the youngest competitors to receive her IFBB Professional status. With such an incredible athletic background, it’s little wonder that Alexa quickly became one of NXT’s most dangerous Superstars. Although she never captured the NXT Women’s Title, she was a constant threat.   When she joined SmackDown LIVE, Alexa ascended to the top by becoming a two-time SmackDown Women's Champion. Then she made history at WWE Payback, becoming the first Superstar to win both the SmackDown Women's Title and the Raw Women's Title.  Earn Your Happy is a production of Crate Media

Today’s guest, Tim Storey, is someone I’ve wanted to have on Earn Your Happy since before it was officially a thing. So you can imagine that I was practically levitating from excitement (and let’s be honest, I still am) to chat with him. If you’ve never heard of Tim, you’re missing out because he’s a master at moving people into action and helping people turn setbacks into comebacks. Seriously, when Tim speaks his energy comes out of his pores!   Realizing early on he wanted to help heal others, in our conversation we talk about where it all began (picture seven people in a two-bedroom house) and how he credits his upbringing to helping him think big in small places. We touch on spending time with people who get you (your tribe) and why we all need to start paying attention and be an observer to all the discoveries around us.   You may want to listen to this episode twice (I know I’ll be listening again) just to take in each and every one of his wisdom-filled words. I can’t wait to hear your takeaways!   --   Question Highlights: How did you become a speaker? How can we enjoy the discovery while in the recovery zone? Do you still have slumps and dry spells? What are some of the key things that help you speak with full expression, and how did you get to that place? What made you hold onto what your 6th grade teacher told you and make it your north star? What made it stand out? For people who feel like they need to change to be something or they don’t feel like they’re ready for the “thing,” what would you tell them? Do we have to make an empowering reason as to why we’re in a “winter?” How do you know the distinction of when to share certain things with others? How does one not get intimidated by the thought of mastery, but instead be almost pulled by their message to mastery? How do people know when to go to the next level of work?   In This Episode We Talk about: What moved Tim to become a speaker and help heal others Why the recovery zone is the common denominator Staying in the moment during your discovery Going back to being curious and innocent again Changing the channel of what you’re thinking and how Tim shifts his channel Tuning into the right things at the right times Being with people who get you (your tribe) Why Tim still holds onto his 6th grade teacher’s standard Breathing life into others through speaking Why people oftentimes must go left before they go right What Tim did when he was served papers while he was speaking at an event Why your testimony is the most powerful thing you have The Law of Harvest Why we can’t look for results every day And so much more…   Quotes “Unlock your discovery just by paying attention and observing.”   “If you’re not careful, life will knock the curiosity out of you.”   “Feed your faith, starve your doubt.”   “What I say, I live.”   “Set to be settled to be seasoned to soar.”   “You are seasoned for a reason. “   “You can handle the left and right at the same time.”   “Not all things should be spoken…some things should be left behind.”   “Don’t get stuck in the result.”   -- Tim Storey is an acclaimed author, speaker and life coach, well known for inspiring and motivating people of all walks of life, from entertainment executives, celebrities and athletes to adults and children in the most deprived neighborhoods in the country. Tim has traveled to seventy-five countries and spoken to millions of people. He often meets privately to counsel high-profile leaders in various industries.   Tim Storey helps people create the future they desire. He has inspired people from all walks of life, from entertainment legends to professional athletes... from executives to deprived children in third world countries.

I had such a blast talking with Lauryn Evarts and Michael Bosstick, the hosts of The Skinny Confidential HIM & HER show, in person!

  My interview with Heather Askisone and Timmi Jandro, the founders of Energy Muse, was a conversation that was meant to happen. In recent years, I’ve become super intrigued with the use of crystals and it was incredible to dive deeper, learn some new things and also receive validation on some crazy coincidences in my life that involved crystals.   Best friends since the 1st grade, Heather and Timmi weren’t always interested in crystals. In fact, both were in different careers (business and high-end real estate) up until they founded Energy Muse 17 hears ago. With their combined experience of healing and business, they are now taking the woo-woo out of crystals and empowering people to make change starting today.   I know there will be some skeptics out there, but I have a feeling they’ll feel differently after listening. It’s all about good energy! I highly recommend taking their crystal test on their site to see which stones you’re drawn to – they may just help you through your next challenge. (And if you feel called to do so, I would love it if you shared which ones you chose and what they mean!)   --      Question Highlights: How did you both start out on this journey? Who do you typically give the amethyst stone to? When did you realize there was something there for you with crystals? What made you dive deeper? Do you keep different crystals throughout your house or through different times? What was the main reason you decided to write your book, Crystal Muse? How does energy alignment with the moon relate to crystals? Do you have any rituals in your book that help people feel grounded or rooted when they’re at a tipping point? What is the most exciting thing that’s coming up for you with your book release?   In This Episode We Talk about: How Heather and Timmi first met and their backgrounds before founding Energy Muse How energies/stones resonate with people differently The innocence of picking a crystal for the first time The shift that took place when Heather gave Timmi a prosperity necklace How crystals can help us feel and serve as a reminder to slow down Energy Muse’s internal challenge to pick one stone and work with it for 21 days Their new book, Crystal Muse, and why it’s a book of secrets that offers rituals done in 11 minutes or less to render results Emotional moon in Scorpio Why humans are looking to reconnect with each other more than ever What it means to “energetically cut the cord” And so much more…   Quotes “When you feel, you start healing.”   “The more I stopped and slowed down, the more my life moved forward.”   “There are so many juicy concepts and conversations that one stone can help you evolve into and unearth.”   “The beauty of finding out who you are and where you are at that time is powerful.”   “The more we plug into the light right now, the more we are going to be able to get out of the chaos and confusion.”   “We, the people, are the bridge between the worlds – the earth and the sky.”   “You’re going to feel the pain, but it doesn’t have to last forever.”   -- Having known one another since the age of six, Energy Muse co-founders, Heather Askinosie and Timmi Jandro are each other’s yin to their yang. Heather Askinosie is a leading influencer on the power of crystals, Feng Shui, and holistic healing. For over 25 years, she has had the privilege of studying with the best healers from all over the world, who have passed down ancient teachings on how to utilize energy technology. In 2000, Heather co-founded Energy Muse with business partner Timmi Jandro. Timmi’s background in sales and operations, making them a dynamic duo in this industry. Energy Muse is a conscious lifestyle brand, providing tools of empowerment, inspiration, and hope in the tangible form of jewelry and crystals.

I’m so thrilled to have my friend and fellow master-minder, Lindsay Sukornyk, back on the show! Not only is she a great coach, yoga instructor and mom, but she’s also one of the best conversationalists I know. When we talk there is never a bad conversation.   In this episode, we talk about stepping into fear and reframing it as an opportunity for growth and aliveness. Lindsay and I also discuss the impact nature has when it comes to helping you get into more of a flow state (her Alive + Awake retreats are perfect for this). Regardless, it’s about listening to the “whispers” that nudge you in the direction you’re meant to go. And generally those are the things that resonate with you and make you feel good. Don’t know about you, but I am all for more of that in my life!   I guarantee you’ll feel a little lighter after listening to the words of my unicorn friend and eager to elevate your life to the next level (perhaps in Costa Rica?). --      Question Highlights: How did you decide to move to Costa Rica and start doing retreats and other things? What makes you this insane warrior going straight for the fear and straight for the opposite of what’s logical? How do you allow yourself to lean in, have faith and get into the flow state at any time? Why are we so resistant to be ourselves? What is most exciting for you right now?   In This Episode We Talk about: How Lindsay left her elite career because she was unsatisfied and wanted to tap into her highest potential Yoga, mindfulness and spirituality Working remotely and how to make it work How Lindsay changed her perspective on fear and reframed it as an opportunity for growth and aliveness Triggering flow states by stepping into fear The effect nature has on transformation in all forms How Lindsay’s Alive + Awake retreats help others step into their highest potential Lindsay’s book-writing journey so far And much more…   Quotes:   “Listen to the whispers.”   “This way to the good stuff.”   “This whole journey for us has been one of leaping into the unknown and making it up as we go and then ultimately listening to the whispers of our souls, but also taking the actions required.”   “When we play and have fun, everything can go way faster and far more smoothly – especially when it comes to transformation.”   “Surrender to the magic that’s available when we let go of our plans and expectations.”   --   Lindsay is a unicorn trainer, transformational leadership expert, master coach, writer, wanderluster, and mama of four amazing kids.

In this episode, I interview Akansha Agrawal - founder of the online wellness community, Citrus + Gold. After years of working in the corporate world in many great positions at LinkedIn, Akansha made the leap to follow her passion project full-time.   As she went full-steam ahead to work on building her business and audience, Akansha has learned a great deal about building authentic online communities. She has built an authentic and engaged community on Instagram and Facebook. In fact, Akansha grew her Facebook Group, C+G Girl Gang to 500 people in less than 6 months! Akansha covers the strategies she used to grow her Facebook Group and why maintaining authenticity is so important to the success of her business.   Authenticity is crucial to any online community today. People are more sensitive to “fake” or inauthentic brands, businesses and people. If they sense authenticity, they won't buy into what you're talking about. Akansha covers how to avoid that and exactly how to maintain real relationships with your audience and community.   We also chat about how Akansha's business is growing and changing. Akansha polls her audience from time to time to understand what they want to know more about. She kept getting feedback from her community that they wanted to learn more about how to build brands and run businesses. Because of this, Akansha has been expanding the Citrus + Gold brand to include creative strategy and coaching. She already has a growing Facebook Community called, “Passion to Profit.”   Question Highlights: How did Citrus & Gold come about? What was your vision originally? Was community a part of your strategy from the start? How did you deal with that uncertainty of entrepreneurship? What do you do to nurture your online communities? How do you know the difference between authenticity and inauthenticity? In the context of business… why are authentic relationships + trust so important? I think we are holding entrepreneurs more accountable in 2018 than ever before… why do you think this is happening on the internet / social media? What advice would you give to someone who is growing a brand / biz in 2018? How do they build a heart-centered biz that is truly authentic? Why build authentic relationships & trust online even if you don't have a brand or business yet?   In This Episode You Will Learn: How to deal with the uncertainty of entrepreneurship Tips for nurturing and building authentic online communities The importance of authentic online relationships in 2018   Resources:   Citrus & Gold: www.citrusandgold.com   IG: @citrusandgold   C&G Girl Gang FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cggirlgang/   Passion to Profit FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/citrusandgoldstrategy/   Web Page: http://avanimiriyala.com/004-communities/   --   Check out my website at http://avanimiriyala.com.
