In this podcast, we will be talking about how to improve yourself from the philosophy of Carl Jung. He found his own school of psychology, called analytical psychology and his philosophy is dubbed as “Jungian philosophy”. Jung's wisdom offers a roadmap for self-discovery, helping individuals understand their true selves, overcome challenges, and enhance relationships. In this video, we talk about how to improve yourself by applying Jung's philosophy to your life.  Here are 5 ways to improve yourself from the philosophy of Carl Jung -  01. Understand Your Subconscious 02. Work On Your Individuation Process 03. Take Care Of Yourself  04. Reflect Every Day  05. Find Meaning In Your Life  I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope that this wisdom on improving yourself from the philosophy of Carl Jung will be  helpful in your life.  Carl Jung, together with Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler, is one of the 3 founders of psychoanalysis which is a set of psychological theories and methods aiming to release repressed emotions and experiences - in other words, to make the unconscious conscious. Jung was born in Switzerland in 1875 and died in 1961, leaving behind great works in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, psychology and religious studies. Jung had Freud as a mentor for a good part of his career but later he departed from him. This division was painful for Jung and it led him to found his own school of psychology, called analytical psychology as a comprehensive system separate from psychoanalysis. If classical psychoanalysis focuses on the patient's past, as early experiences are very important in personality development, analytical psychology primarily focuses on the present, on mythology, folklore, and cultural experiences, to try to understand human consciousness. One of the most important ideas of analytical psychology which Jung founded is the process of individuation, which is the process of finding the self - something Jung considered an important task in human development. While he did not formulate a systematic philosophy, he is nonetheless considered a sophisticated philosopher - his school of thought dubbed “Jungian philosophy”. Its concepts can apply to many topics covered in the humanities and the social sciences. A good part of his work was published after his death and indeed there are still some articles written by him that to this day have yet to be published. Some of his most important books are: “Psychology of the Unconscious”, “Man and His Symbols”, “The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious”, “Modern Man In Search of a Soul”, “The Psychology of the Transference”, “Memories, Dreams, Thoughts”, and “The Relations Between the Ego and the Unconscious”. Besides being a great writer and a researcher, he was also an artist, a craftsman and even a builder. His contribution is enormous and there is a great deal we can learn from his works.

Hi Navigators! Well, it's been quite a journey together. With many emotions, we are signing off, providing insights and thoughts one last time. "Thank you" will never be enough to express the gratitude, love, joy, and embrace felt by those who listened, those who came on and shared their journey, and those we met in various capacities along the way. We will miss this space immensely, and hope it provided just a little bit of relief, education, vulnerability, and connectiveness along the way. Wishing everyone the support and love they deserve, and a meaningful beginning to the fall season. For the last time, be well!

In this episode, we have explored the importance of allowing ourselves a break with healthy parameters. We've discussed the benefits of breaks, the need for setting boundaries, and strategies for creating a balanced approach to rest.

So, go ahead, give yourself permission to take that break, and embrace the positive impact it can have on your life. Until next time!Women SoaringFacebookWS Instagram

Hello. Hello, Vitality Seekers, please help me welcome Kimberly Baca, a Holistic Health Strategist at Legacy Holistic Health. Kimberly was a former fashion designer is a certified living foods. Chef, a Tony Robbins crew member, a best selling author, and the host of the 365 Health podcast and she is best known as the Naked Veganista  so love that. Welcome Kimberly. Thanks Caroline. Thanks for having me. This is going to be so fun. Like, I don't know if we could have any more in common. We both went to fashion school. We both have a culinary background. You got to be a crew member. I have yet to do that, but it's on my list, cause I love Tony Robbins. This is going to be so awesome. I love your title, The Naked Veganista, the fashion inspired name. Tell us a little about your journey because I really find it fascinating. Well, I, you know, always wanted to be a fashion designer since I was little. And I saw one day that movie with Lindsay Wagner, which was called Scruples and I'm like, that's what I want to do. I want to have a beautiful establishment on Rodeo Drive, wherever that was. Cause I was a Michigan girl. So I had no clue where that was. And I was like, I'm going to do that. And I grew up with a family where, you know, blue collar, my dad worked for the steel industry and worked his way up. And eventually he actually bought the steel company, but we were blue collar and traveled around and settled in Michigan. And I grew up just a regular person, but my mom and dad got divorced. I was 12 and they said, You know, oh, we don't have money for you for college. So he could just forget about that. Right. And so what I did was I said, you know what? I going to find a way I'm going to find a way. So I put my mind to work for me and figured out a way I ended up going to a school because I got a scholarship that wasn't for me. I ended up switching to Michigan State University. I graduated with a bachelor's of science and then a minor, which was clothing and textiles. So my degree is in clothing and textiles. And then I was like, how am I going to do this? So I've found before I graduated, I actually was in my fourth year, ready to graduate. I found they had an Institute in Detroit where all of the fashion schools were coming and I said, you know what? I'm going to go there. And. Had to have a portfolio of something, but I didn't, all I had was I had, I was good at drawing. So I created some drawings. I took some new drawing classes in my spare time at night between working three jobs and going to school. And then I presented it and they were like, Do you know what? You're not, you're not Parsons material. You can't, you know, she just like picked it up and threw it. Didn't even really look at it. And I had spent all this time creating this portfolio. I had a three paneled folding screen, long story short. The director was like, you know what? Poopoo on you. I mean, I didn't have the look. I didn't have the money. I didn't have the whatever. And I wasn't from New York. So I was like, I was devastated. You know, I was 22 years. And I was like, this is my dream. You know, I am a great designer. I knew I was a great designer. I just didn't know how to express it. Long story short, I ended up getting into the school, I ended up winning the designer of the year award. I got hired out of school for fortune 500 company as their director of merchandising, uh, as my first technical job, even though I got a summer job and I was making $60 grand a year, I ended up. performing well then the year after that, the competition hired me away from there and we won the designer of the year award again. Wow. And that was for hosiery company. I ended up working for  first and then I worked for a Hue, top designer, director for that company. And what happened to me was my work and all of this caught up with me working three jobs, putting myself through school the designing. When you're in a design career, in a school it's, it's all nighters, you know, you really don't sleep much. You don't eat well. I had no idea what to eat, to keep myself healthy or anything. I just ate whatever. And like, Kids do. Right. Uh, and it all caught up to me. So then in my mid twenties, I became completely debilitated and they diagnosed me with what was called fibromyalgia auto immune disorder. And I couldn't even lift my arms. I couldn't walk nothing, so I couldn't even .Work. So my entire dream life, my house, my marriage, my everything pretty much was stripped from me. And that was because of lack of awareness. I changed my whole life to become a health coach, help women specifically to never be put in that position where they have to make a choice between their health and their job or their health and their family, but to really live authentically living healthy every day. And I've been a vegan since the 1997, when I went to my first Tony Robbins Event. I was like completely mesmerized that half the people left for the health day and they didn't count their health as more important than their business and most people don't. And so that's why I have targeted my coaching to people, specifically, women who are overworked,  over-busy don't know how to take care of themselves and they're going to eventually lose their health because they've put their business in the forefront of, of everything that needs to be important. I love that and I know exactly what you mean about the Tony Robbins health day,  which was probably one of my favorites out of all of them. I went there with such an open mind. It was really excellent.  Thank you for sharing all of that. I ended up working in a lingerie company. You end up working in hosiery! Really really crazy. I loved your story. And that is so true, what you said about how people put their health, in the back seat, or they don't even recognize it as something that needs to be in the forefront of life. Um, and I am doing a similar path with trying to help people who've been successful. I'm on the opposite side, I'm trying to head towards the male client, but it is so true. We just don't realize what we have until it's gone. And you know had the fibromyalgia.  That must have been just so awful. I can't even imagine being that young. You're a fashion designer. You're doing all that stuff, doing all the things you want to do. And then all of a sudden you can can't hardly walk or feed yourself or do any of those things. It must've been devastating. I can't imagine. Work with the people who are very similar to me, really independent. You know, let's say Type A, wants to be in control, need that structure to keep things together. But really when it comes to health, most people don't know how to do that. They don't know how to integrate it in an effective way, that's sustainable. They can do a first book period of time, the 30 days, the 90 days. But then they pretty much fall apart because some other life event happens and it interrupts the flow and they don't know how to get back to it. So that's what I do. I really help people get that congruency I agree with that too. They know what to do, but it's don't know how to implement it. And then there's a huge difference you can know, but that doesn't mean you can actually make it work. Today, we're going to talk about how to feel 10 years younger, who doesn't want to do that. Um, and, and you need some kind of like a banner, a title or something, because I know you had a baby at 50 and you look fabulous and we're the same age.  It's mind blowing so what would you say on how to regain your youthfulness? I think the key is I, I know one of my secrets and people are like, what do you do? How do you do this? You know, I mean, I really don't wear much makeup. I really just do everything naturally. I make all my own products for my hair and my skincare and everything. And I've been doing that for years since I didn't want to put anything toxic in my body or on my body. So make sure that you're aware of what you're actually doing now that could be causing advanced aging or from you from actually looking your most youthful.. And the other thing is, is that. I have a mindset that I have had since I programmed myself to believe this and I continue to tell myself, and now it's just part of who I am. It's not like a mantra I have to say every day, but it's like, I look and feel at least 15 years younger than my chronological age. That's just who I am. So I will always look at least 15 younger years younger than my chronological age. So to begin if that's something that you can't really believe that the affirmation is not going to be effective, you actually have to believe in affirmation. Part of it has to be true. So. Somebody starts out with five years. Okay. And they can, they can grab that. They can grab hold of that 10 years. Right. And then build up a mine used to be 10 years. Right. And then everybody comes, kept telling me, I looked at least 15 years younger. So I'm like, I'm changing my belief. My belief is actually working better. So I, I had said originally 10 years younger and I changed it about four or five years ago to at least 15 years younger because I seem to look like that getting younger. And I think the other thing is, is that to enjoy what we're doing more. I know that I'm guilty of that. Like I'm just too serious, a lot of the times in the past, up until now. So changing our words as well, catching ourselves with what we say and up until now, I've been pretty serious about most of the things, because I'm very direct. And very, you know, one minded when it comes to certain things. So to, to that effect, I was talking yesterday to somebody about it, really. I think having my daughter at 50 years old has actually contributed to my youthfulness because I am more playful. I am more like in spur of the moment. I do more things that are active in terms of like, just play things. Laughter things that I wasn't doing before too serious, all the time kills our joy and kills our liveliness. So I think that is a super secret. So besides believing, creating a belief structure where we believe we look and feel at least whatever age you want to feel, right. So  I felt my best, not in my twenties, I don't want to feel bad again. That was painful to me, but in my thirties, right? So in my late thirties I felt looked and it was absolutely the best. And that's where I want my belief to stay. How I'm looking, how I'm feeling. I'm still able to do everything I do, even though I went through cesarean pregnancy. I was debilitated cause I had two herniated disc twice. I had herniated disc in my back and those have healed. Okay. So how do these things heal? We have to program our mind to do the healing. We have to tell ourselves, even if we just barely believe it or even don't believe it yet, but by reprogramming over and over again, we will program our brain to begin to take root of the truth and begin to create and manifest it in a solid form. That's such a, what? I've heard that so many times that it's like, it doesn't even necessarily have to be real, just like a smile, just slap one on and soon enough it'll, it'll turn to be the real thing.  But in the meantime, your brain really doesn't know the difference. So just do it anyway and have those affirmations. You definitely do not look your age and I would say 15 years, maybe even still a little conservative. Uh, yeah, you definitely can preach to the choir. So vegan since 1997 and then you tell yourself, " I look and feel 15 years younger" than my biological age. I might just have to adopt that there, Ms. Kimberly. Um, and I at least, yeah, at least. So it's 15 or more. Okay. Okay. At least I'm writing that down. All right. And enjoy, I agree with you that I am guilty of the taking life too serious. And I did that for way too many years, but I'm on a new path now. Whew. Give us a couple of success stories of clients maybe that you have dealt with and, and how they have benefited wonderful concept that you have. Well, I'll take a current client. She's actually 74 years old. And, her cardiologist after one month of working with me is blown away. He actually focuses on a plant-based to help his clients to, uh, reduce the cardiological damage or whatever is going on for them. So he was just really blown away because he promotes it already, but he does not see results like this in people over 70, put it that way. First of all, in a month, she had a weight reduction of 16 pounds, which is great cause that weight reduction is not only inflammation, but also the unhealthy accumulation around vital organs, especially at the, in age, past the age of 60, but vital organs start to accumulate fat and they start to accumulate toxic residue. If it hasn't been, focused on as a healing protocol consistently for that person. And most people, it's not been a consistent focused protocol to get toxins out. So she has been moving these very healthfully in the timing over four weeks and now is in a momentum. So her body now is in a momentum and we slowly add things in our program that we focus on with Legacy Holistic Health. Isn't a deprivation mindset. We do not teach the body about deprivation because whenever you deprive something or you resist something, it will persist. And if you deprive the body, it goes seeking for what it's being deprived of. More of it now. So our goal is to add things in it's an additive type of perspective, where we give the body, we give the mind, we give the craving what it's asking for, but in a healthy way. And so I add things in for. And then we slowly do things to increase movement. So now she, where she barely could even move any limbs before she's jumping on a rebounder, she's doing hit workouts, which is high intensity interval training workouts that are designed specifically for her, where she's doing high knees and high kick. Like literally, we don't have to work out an hour to get results. So most of the people that are over the age of 40 think I got to work hard. I got to work long. I got to be in the gym wall one to two hours, but that's not true. So we've just created a customized program. And that's what I do in my one-on-one coaching, so that everything is geared to exactly what you can do, stretching just enough to get results and then moving in, in a guided fashion. So you accelerate those results. As we moved through the coaching. That is so crazy good. I don't know what I'm more excited about either that you've helped us 74 year old person or that a 74 year old person. Was wanting to change at 74! I think. Talk about a win-win, that's fabulous. I absolutely adore the whole concept. And it is a lot harder, at that age and, and may lose that much weight. And then astounded her doctor, !   Any other success stories stand out? Really, I mean, I have a client who really began as a high level executive, multi six figure executive. And, uh, she decided that was that the life for her anymore. She really wanted to follow the path that God had chosen for her. And really. Uh, the money wagon, wasn't the wagon. And she wanted to spend time with her or her family. And at 40 years old, she became pregnant with another boy and, she wanted to make changes, but really didn't know what to do. So I guided her. The type of lifestyle she could have if she focused on healthy things that she puts in her life, getting rid of the toxic elements, surrounding her and putting in nutrient rich foods and having a system to be able to do that while she was working.But then as she transitioned out of working, she was able to implement even more. And as she did that, She changed her whole lifestyle and all of her kids too. And now they all eat healthy foods. They love it. And which they're astonished actually that the kids love eating this way versus eating the old burgers and fries and chips, take out the things that they were doing. And I think part of it has to do with when you're intentional and this is something I train people when you're intentional about it. How you live, there's this high level of vibration energy that comes into your life that brings in community, brings them love. It brings in just joy that wasn't there before. And I think that's the difference is when you actually focus on your health and make it part of how you're actively integrating life in a healthy way, everything else changes too. So good, that amazing you can transform lives like that and, and do it like one-on-one and really custom couture. I'll use the word couture for you because you're the fashionista.   Talk to me a little bit about the certification and the living food chef that piques my interest. Maybe do you have like a favorite recipe or something that our listeners could make themselves at home try to get that nutrient density? Yeah. I became a living foods chef because I wanted to understand the implication of food on our health and how we could get more food nutrients instead of supplements or, uh, you know, just what the normal people are used to doing to get vitamins and the elements that we need in our body. Instead of using it in a pill form or a bottle form I really wanted to learn and how to integrate that in meals. So we don't have to make extra time and we don't have to spend extra money. That is what it is about saving time and money. Is what I help people do best,  while they get healthy and stay that way. And so, uh, one of the best things to do is get avocado in your diet. Every day. A lot of people are like, oh, fat, fat, fat. They're so afraid of fat, but you have to know, you have to have fat for your brain to function. You have to have fat for your ligaments and your joints to have the lubrication. They need to not only feel healthy, but to avoid things like arthritis. Arterial arterial issues that will clog the body. We have to have healthy fat. We have to have healthy nutrients. So my favorite favorite recipe to trick people with is avocado pudding and it's chocolate pudding. It looks and feels like chocolate mousse, but it's using avocado. And my secret ingredient, it's not the avocado. The secret ingredient is cayenne pepper. So you take avocados, make sure that they're, you know, very soft, how you pick a ripe avocado. If you don't know, is I usually like to pick an avocado that has the little, Naval on it already in it, and you just flick the little navel out. And if it's a light, brownish color to darker brown color, Okay. light brown or greeny. It's not right. Okay. You feel soft or something, but it's not ripe. The whole thing isn't ripe. So some parts might be harder, whatever. So that's one of the best ways. And I don't like to buy avocados that don't have that because that is where mold can grow. Ah, grow in that. So, um, if it doesn't have it, make sure you look there. Um, and if you don't have the little Naval part, it's okay to buy it. If you think it's ripe. Again, you want, do you want a soft avocado, but then you don't want to take your knife through the avocado Naval part because then if there is mold there, it will drag them all through your whole avocado. So that's a chef tip. Okay. So go to the left or the right of the little Naval card and cut your knife all around in a circle and then twist and open the article. And get the pit out by taking her a knife, gently tap, tap, tap, stick it into the pit, turn your avocado and the nut at the same time. And the nut will be stuck in the knife. Slide it off of the side of the sink. And then you can scoop out with a spoon, just scoop it out, throw it in a blender. Then you're going to put in a quarter cup of cacao powder.  Cacao powder is raw  cocoa powder. Um, you don't want the alkalized cooked cocoa powder because it has less nutrients in it and usually a higher level of potential to have fillers put in that. So get cacao powder, spelled C a C a O cacao, and one quarter cup of that. Then you're going to put. What I use as no sugar. So you can either use a food as your sugar, which would be two dates. You want to get the medjool dates that are rich. They're really delicious and smushy and good. You open them up, you take the pit out, make sure you count your dates and put your pits aside, not in your food, cause don't go in your whole pudding. Right? And then, uh, one to two tablespoons of water and blend that up and puree it. That is your avocado pudding, simple and super easy. Now you put one teeny weeny, pinch of cayenne pepper in it, and it makes it taste like cooked pudding. That's the secret. Now, if you don't want to use any sugar at all, you can use a Lakanto. You can use a maple Lakanto, a sugar-free option and they have Lakanto L a K a N T O in a maple syrup type of container. And you can just put a tablespoon of that in there. Now. Uh, Lakanto is a monk fruit, sweetener, and monk fruit can be up to 10 times as sweet as regular sugar. So you can try a teaspoon to see if that sweet enough for you up to a tablespoon. If you're using pure maple syrup, you can use a tablespoon. Um, so test it out. Less is more initially with every recipe and then blend it. If it doesn't have enough to blend it. Cause if you don't have a high speed blender, we shipped down a little bit, take the spoon out, blend it again, smush it down, blend it again, or put a teeny little bit more water in it. You don't want it to be running. You want it to be fluffy. And that is one of the best recipes you can dehydrate that and make a fruit roll-ups. Oh, my goodness, 50 rolls with that. It tastes so good for kids and it absolutely no chocolate. I used to substitute for a child was a client of mine, he couldn't have chocolate, it's a Carob, Carobpowder powder. Gotcha. Cara powder doesn't have any caffeine in it. Doesn't have any cocoa in it. People could be allergic to that. So use Cara powder and it tastes equally as delicious. Well, I have everything, but the avocados and I'm going to whole foods in a little bit. So I'm so picking up some good avocados and I'll be whipping up some of that tonight. I did not. I use Monkfruit but I have never heard of the Lakanto. Lakanto that's a brand, correct. Okay. That's a brand. That is so cool. I do know that it is sweeter, than sugar. So thank you for that amazing recipe. And I know, you know, some secret about black Sesame seeds... So this is a secret for all women who don't want gray hair. The secret is you grind up your black Sesame seeds. It needs to be black Sesame seeds. Okay. There's nutrient in the black Sesame seeds that help with hair. The minerals remineralizing the body. So it helps with much more than hair, but actually right here is caused by the stripping of the minerals out of the body. And as we age, our body uses more minerals. And it doesn't process minerals as well. So we need to increase the level of minerals we take. So we can get that in the black Sesame seeds, grinding them up and we can make a tea, like just soak them in water and then drink that. Or we can make a paste. We can make a black Sesame paste, like a hummus, and we can eat it with. Okay. I don't have a recipe off the top of my head for that, but if anybody wants it, they can message me and get the recipe. But that is a black Sesame has higher minerals than the white Sesame. So use the black Sesame. And so you can use that any time, uh, for increasing, if you want to do that, you want to drink that every day. It's just a black Sesame liquid of, uh, soaked in the success. Me and you drink the water or eat the paste, a tablespoon or so a day, make a black Sesame hummus. There's many ways you can do that and have some hair transformation. You will definitely see that. And your body will be remineralized very quickly. Okay. I have black Sesame seeds, and I know organic black Sesame Seeds, aren't the cheapest in the world, but you know what? They are a whole hell of a lot cheaper than going to get your hair done . I hate getting my hair done cause I know how toxic it is. It is just not good for you. So that's just like a double win. You are just such a wealth of information.  I do have one last question for you. If there was one thing in this world that you could eliminate, what would it be and why? You know, there's so many things, there's so many things. I, I'm not sure I can pick one, pick two, two. I think, I think the first one would be. People's " lack of awareness". And what I mean by lack of awareness is people seem to want to believe what they want to believe. And if people were just open to possibility, I think the world would be a different place like this with a doctor telling somebody they have to do something or a doctor telling somebody they have so much time to live or a doctor telling somebody you have this illness and you'll have it for the rest of your life. If I were to believe that I would never walk for the rest of my life, I would be on drugs and medication and having somebody to have to take care of me for the rest of my life. That's where I was when I was 27, 28, 29 years old dealing with figuring out how to. Through this illness, which I felt was toxicity and poisoning of my body. If I wasn't of the right state of mind to tell these doctors to keep their diagnosis, to keep what they're claiming for me, that would be the rest of my life and keep their drugs. Cold Turkey. I'm not taking any more of these things. I know they're poisoning me and you can just take it all. And I'm going to figure this out. If I wasn't strong enough in my mind to have that openness to know, there's another way I think I would be. I wouldn't be here today. I wouldn't have impacted the lives I have. So we all have this power in us to impact lives. But if we don't let ourselves be open to possibility, then we don't. And then the second thing is, is really, getting rid of limiting beliefs. When people have these limiting beliefs of who they can be, what they can do, what people have said to them. If people said I couldn't go to college, I wouldn't be able to go to college. You're never going to be a fashion designer. Like that woman told me that I won the designer of the year at her school while she was the chairman. You know, I mean, if I would have let them to put their limiting beliefs on me, I would've never be where I am and have the impact that I've had in my life for people. Right. You're such an inspiration and you have so much knowledge... i,  concur and  I'm wondering if I feel the same way because we're both Tony Robbins fans. When I went to UPW. That is truly the essence that I came away with was that I don't need to understand everything. All I need to know, like from here forward is like, if things help people like be open, be open to information that I might not have deemed, um, worthy of listening to at one point in my life. But, um, that, that is what I walked away with was change. Can be super good, to try different things and like you said to be open-minded and that boy, if more people were like that, Ooh, this world would be a nicer place to live. Tell our listeners where they can contact you.

So it'll have everything in detail or over 30 pages of how to get things in order for what you need to do all free. And.

What you're doing is working. I think it's really cool that you, as Tony would say, "you made your mess, your message" and you're doing obviously a phenomenal job with that. And I thank you so much for sharing your story and all your insights. Cause, I learned a few things today. I can't wait to implement black Sesame Seeds and go make some chocolate avocado pudding. Can't wait to do that tonight.  Thank you, Kimberly. It's been awesome. And I will put in the show notes all your information so people can contact you. And I just want to remind our listeners out there that "Life has no remote. So get up and change it yourself."

Beloved media personality, chef, author and mum-next-door Julie Goodwin came to public attention when she won the very first season of MasterChef Australia’s back in 2009. Julie enjoyed more than a decade of success, with a record-smashing, best-selling cookbook, multiple television and radio gigs, wearing her ‘badge of busyness’, like many of us do, with satisfaction and pride. But in the Christmas of 2019, when she was 49 years old Julie Goodwin came crashing down. So, what happens when you ignore life’s red flags and have to raise a white flag?

Anyone else out there great at giving advice but not taking it? No? So, it's just me. OK. For so many years, I was told to take care of myself when my children were young. Take time to do some just for me. To step back and take a breath so I could enjoy the time with my children. But did I listen?? Nope.  I thought I knew better. Much later, when the children were teenagers, I finally started doing a few things for myself. I would make sure I did at least one thing just for myself every day. Looking back, I should have listened sooner, so Do as I Say, Not as I Did. Take time for yourself. In this episode, I break down 4 areas where we need to be healthy to provide the best we can for our children. Mental, physical, emotional, and social are the areas I feel are important for us to understand. Each day this month, I will post a self-care tip for you to consider, and look forward to you sharing yours with me. Follow me for the latest updates:https://www.instagram.com/theedume/https://www.facebook.com/theedumeSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/user?u=31725704)

Make sure to listen to episodes 3 and 4 for the first two parts of this series on Time Management Tips for the Entrepreneur. Today we have our final installment in the series with 4 more tips, so let's jump right in! 7. Don't try to be an expert in things that you aren't or that you don't enjoy doing. Delegate!* *None of these are affiliate links- just services I use and enjoy. Canva- free graphic design site to make your own logos, social media posts, flyers…IF you're good at it and enjoy it! Here are some online places you can outsource almost any design, editing, or administrative work: o Fiverr o Upwork o 99designs · Don't try to do your own bookkeeping (unless you were a bookkeeper before you were a therapist!). o Affordable bookkeeping, accounting, & tax preparation: Mazuma 8. Know when to hire help. Here's a photo of the list my business coach helped me make when I was feeling completely overwhelmed as a business owner! AHHH!! How was I even doing all this? (Probably not very well…ha ha!) One thing you can try (that I didn't mention in the podcast) if you are at this point of business ownership, is to do what Christina had me do on this poster: Make a BIG list of everything that you could outsource. This will help you get started to actually finding someone to do the work, because you'll be able to tell them what exactly you need help doing. The genius admin brain and business manager behind Outdoor Kids OT is Nicole Storms of Your Admin Solution. Call her if you are drowning and need help! She is so much more than gifted at administrative business tasks— she has the brain of a business owner, is relentlessly positive, and really partners with you in growing your business. 9. Work smarter, not harder. I know this is kind of a catch phrase, but there are definitely ways we can do this…and Occupational Adaptation theory explains how! Occupational Adaptation (OA) theory proposes the primary aim of occupational therapy is to increase a client's relative mastery and adaptive capacity. Relative mastery = effectiveness, efficiency (which we've been talking about in this series!), and level of satisfaction to self and others in completion of occupational tasks/challenges. Adaptive capacity = Noticing the need to change. Sufficient psychosocial, cognitive, and sensorimotor skills and resources to meet occupational challenges. Ability to problem solve to meet future occupational challenges. A summary table of Schkade & Schultz' Occupational Adaptation Theoretical Constructs of Primary & Secondary Energy (We NEED to know when to use each to be efficient business owners!) Schkade, S. & Schultz, S. (1992). Occupational adaptation: Toward a holistic approach for contemporary practice, part 1. American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 46(9), 829-837. I LOVE that OA theory applies to our work as business owners and as occupational therapists. I could go on and on…but the main takeaway from this review of OA is that our efficiency affects our relative mastery as business owners! Putting one or more of these tips into action can make you a better entrepreneur…and improve your ability to adapt in the face of future challenges as a business owner! And finally: 10. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Do not…I repeat, do NOT….let your work take over your life so much that you lose your health or happiness. That is NOT why we became business owners. This is an efficiency tip because if we take care of ourselves, we will be more effective in our work. So decide what healthy habit you want to start doing and get started. Personally, for me it is exercise. I must move my body every single day and I do this consistently (even though I'm not an athlete by any means). I could be better at 1.) eating less sweets and 2.) giving my husband and children the love and attention they deserve for supporting my crazy endeavors. Prioritizing those changes would likely make me more efficient as a business owner because I'd be happier and more balanced. So here is the final list in all its glory. What are YOU going to take action on today? Time Management Tips to Empower & Equip YOU as a Savvy & Successful OT Entrepreneur 1. GET IT ALL OUT OF YOUR HEAD! HAVE A SYSTEM FOR MANAGING TO-DO'S. 2. ESTABLISH YOUR TOP 3 MUST-DO'S EACH DAY. 3. TIME BLOCK YOUR SCHEDULE. 4. DO THE RIGHT TASK AT THE RIGHT TIME OF DAY. 5. USE A TIMER TO TRACK HOW LONG TASKS ACTUALLY TAKE. 6. SHUT OFF NOTIFICATIONS ON YOUR PHONE AND COMPUTER WHILE YOU ARE WORKING. 7. DON'T TRY TO BE AN EXPERT IN THINGS THAT YOU AREN'T OR THAT YOU DON'T ENJOY DOING. DELEGATE! 8. KNOW WHEN TO HIRE HELP. 9. WORK SMARTER, NOT HARDER. (OA THEORY TELLS US HOW TO DO THIS!) 10. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!

Who will create the next "Warped Tour?" Is it you? Maybe a friend you have? Share this episode with them! It's full of strategies and tips on how Kevin brought "the scene" out of the underground and into the streets, literally...the venues were parking lots, plots of land, stadiums, and I believe they closed down part of the Vegas strip for the final Warped Tour. I have wanted to pick Kevin Lyman's brain since I 2014 and I knew that NOW was the time to do it. Warped Tour has closed it's gates after 24 years of crazy angst-filled summers, and the man behind the whole thing has given his everything to keep it going, and, upon recording this podcast, almost his life. I was met with a post-op Kevin, who, because "the show must go on," let an infection in his knee, that he had replaced, bring him into SCEPTIC SHOCK!! That's some crazy dedication! In this episode of Project Freelance I talk with Kevin about his youth, how he built his legacy, and we talk about how the scene has changed and what the introduction and growth of social media has affected live music. Kevin, thank you, as a fan, a photographer, a musician, and as an outcast, you gave me a place to call home. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF! Enjoy this episode of Project Freelance and let me know what you think of the podcast by leaving a review and (5 star) rating.   For classes/booking: http://justtheletterk.com/booking Read on to support the podcast!
