“Self-care is not an indulgence. Self-care is a discipline. It requires tough-mindedness, a deep and personal understanding of your priorities, and a respect for both yourself and the people you choose to spend your life with.” ~ Tami Forman Guest Introduction:   Welcome to Exploring the Seasons of Life podcast episode 46. I’m your host Cindy MacMillan and today’s guest is Melissa Wright. Welcome to Exploring the Seasons of Life, a podcast for women with a big heart on a spiritual journey. Each week, join Cindy MacMillan as she interviews coaches, spiritual explorers and celebrants from all walks of life about beginnings, endings and the messy bits in-between. Self-love, well-being, and mindset are at the heart of our conversations because once you change the inside, the outside will begin to change as well.   I am delighted to introduce my guest to you.  Melissa Wright is a Transformational Coach that helps people with life transitions, stress management and personal development. She helps clients to tap into their own wisdom, essentially guiding them to create their own solutions. By focusing on a way that honors who we are at our core, we create space for us to grow into our authentic self. Melissa holds a degree in psychology and started her coaching business in 2018. Today Melissa offers different packages for individual coaching, creates personal development YouTube videos and runs two Meetup groups. She is also in the process of writing a book on forgiveness, which is expected to be published by March 2021. To contact Melissa, please visit her website at www.yourlifetimecoach.com.  Welcome to the podcast, Melissa. Here’s a glimpse of our conversation: 1:53 You know, I feel like right now I'm kind of I'm in the season of summer, it's starting to come. But a while back, I went through fall and winter. And I sat in winter for quite some time. It's amazing how sometimes we can get stuck in a season. And I know being stuck in the winter had a lot to do with the fact that I was having a difficult time getting clarity, like kind of figure out my next steps to spring. 3:21 So the first thing I would say is to take baby steps. 6:53 So if we look at self-care, that's how we take care of ourselves mentally, emotionally, and physically. It's the activities we do to keep ourselves healthy and balanced. But if we look at self-love, it's self-acceptance. Meaning that we love ourselves and appreciate what makes us special. 9:38 Because of a lot of times, you know, we want to say yes to everything and help everyone. But then when we keep saying yes, we don't say no, we don't leave that space for us to be able to do what we need to do. We may forego some of our self-care or other things, to be able to do something for someone else. 19:19 Okay, so right now, I feel like I'm more in the summer, and feeling pretty awesome about the things coming into my life. But I would tell my 18-year-old self to be patient with the seasons that come like before this time because when I was in that, I felt like it would last forever.  Resources Mentioned:   Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

The global pandemic has wreaked havoc on many businesses but, it has also triggered a lot of ingenuity as women have figured out how to pivot their creative businesses and continue to find success. But there are many times outside of a pandemic when you may be faced with the thought of pivoting your business.

Some days the artist gets to be in charge, and some days, it’s the businessperson. And sometimes that can create tension! But tension can be a really good thing - from it comes new ideas, inspiration, and growth. When you run a creative business you need to keep your “inspiration well” full, your mind and body healthy and your business brain sharp. You also need friends and a community that understand what your days are like. That’s why And She Looked Up was created - to create a space for Canadian female artists, creatives and makers to come together and share our ideas and stories while growing our creative businesses! Your host Melissa Hartfiel is a designer, illustrator, writer, and photographer with a penchant for vibrant colour. She’s owns three businesses and has been a self-employed creative since 2010.

Can you say mom goals? Melissa Evans is the Founder and CEO of Momeez Choice, running a family-owned company while raising four children.Melissa has always been passionate about working and caring for children. She earned a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Human Relations, which led to over 10 years of working in health and human services field. Her most cherished position was working with a non-profit organization for families whose loved ones were ill or had passed away. After many years of working with children and families, Melissa began a family of her own. After giving birth to her twin girls, she decided to stay at home full-time. Her family of four quickly became a family of six after having another sweet girl and then a baby boy! Today Melissa and family live in a small town in Connecticut where Melissa was born and raised.   When it came to health and wellness, Melissa had always been an enthusiast, but it was when first becoming pregnant that she began to take a harder look into health and nutrition and what she was putting into her body and essentially her baby’s. When Melissa’s daughter was a little older and became sick with strep and pneumonia, there was nothing she felt comfortable giving her to soothe her throat. Many throat lozenges are filled with artificial ingredients and can be a choking hazard for young children. The simple need to ease her daughter’s throat and desire to have a better-for-you option, led to the launch of Lolleez, organic throat soothing pops for kids! Now under Melissa’s parent company, Momeez Choice, are sibling brands Lolleez, organic throat soothing lollipops for kids and Tumeez, organic tummy soothing lollipops for kids. Both brands are effective, fun and delicious ways to feel better and make sick days a little less crummy. As Momeez Choice Founder, Melissa’s goal is to provide parents with simple solutions to simple problems – helping to reduce the overload of decisions parents make daily – especially during the stressful time of having a sick kid.   On this episode Blessing and Melissa dissect the ingredients, where to find her organic soothing pops around the country, and how she started this thriving business with kids without a business background. Melissa shares how she balances work and life, and what she hopes other moms can learn as they think about finding and living out their passion.   Momeez Choice  is a proud sponsor of Mother Honestly and Mother: The Summit 2019.

Life TK

How much does the Life TK audience know about being a professional dominatrix? That was one of the first questions my interviewee—the remarkable Melissa Febos—had for me when we recorded today's episode. I don't have that data, unfortunately, but it's a fair question because Melissa is the author of the amazing memoir Whip Smart, about the time in her twenties she spent as a college student and professional dom, one of the best books I read last year. Whip Smart is about so much more than the world of domming; it's about power, desire, control, and Melissa's struggle with drug addiction. Get it. Read it. Love it. Also one of the best books I read last year: Melissa's powerhouse essay collection Abandon Me, which chronicles an emotional, intimate, fraught long-distance relationship she had with a lover, and her reconnection to her birth father. Abandon Me was named one of the best books of 2017 by Esquire, Refinery29, BookRiot, Electric Literature, The Cut, and more, and The New Yorker said that the "sheer fearlessness of the narrative is captivating." What I love about Abandon Me is not only does the subject matter invoke this incredible feeling of vulnerability, but also Melissa is a master of form. A lot of the essays are braided and the prose is amazing, dipping into religion, psychology, mythology, popular culture—this is a book that will turn you inside out emotionally and intellectually, and leave you wanting more. So here's some more: Today Melissa and I are talking about the process of writing, how Whip Smart poured out of her—and how Abandon Me was different. Whip Smart started as a five-page memoir assignment for a nonfiction survey class, and when Melissa handed in hers, about her first session as a dom, her professor recognized she was on to something. Melissa was told to drop everything and write this book. "Anyone who finds the work they are called to do will recognize this feeling," she told me. "When I started writing that story, it just—it was writing me. It just came out. It wasn't easy, but there was an engine in me for it, and the story wanted to be told." If you're wondering, like I did, whether Abandon Me felt just as urgent to write, it did—but it was different because Melissa was still living through some of the experiences she was writing about. She didn't know how the book was going to turn out because she wasn't sure, well, what she was writing to. "I just knew I had to examine it in order to move through it," she said. As I often do on Life TK, I asked the million-dollar question: Did Melissa ever feel like giving up? Here's what she told me: "Oh God, I felt like giving up yesterday. It's so lonely sometimes. I can't really speak for other kinds of writers, but because I'm writing memoir or work based on my personal experience, I spend a lot of time alone, re-living and examining the most painful, sort of incoherent parts of my experience. Which is a lot. It's not required. It's not even recommended for a lot of people. It's really painful. I have often wanted to give up. ... In my early twenties, when I had graduated college and I wasn't writing and I wasn't reading and I was an active drug addict working as a dominatrix, I was like, 'I feel so far from the life that I thought I'd be living, and from the person I am.'" But how did she get through it? By getting quiet, she told me, and listening to the inner wisdom that's underneath the fear we all experience. "For me, even in those times when I felt incredibly hopeless, far from where I needed to be, if I got really quiet, I could hear it. It's like those moments when I was like, 'You have to get clean.' 'You have to quit this job.'" Speaking of, one of my favorite parts of Whip Smart is when Melissa, wanting to use her degree, takes a break from domming and starts a new job working in editorial...and it blows, so she quits. You know I'm the A-number-one fan of hanging in there, but Melissa's confidence made me think twice about my "no quitting" policy. We talk about how she knew that job wasn't the right fit, and what she did after she left (dog walking, assistant to a really rich lady). And finally, I ask Melissa for her advice for Life TK listeners. Keep going, and call yourself a writer even if you don't write for a living (which most of us don't, btw). "Tell people about your work, even if your heart is broken out of rejection, send it back out again," she said. "It doesn't feel good, it feels like the wrong thing to do, but we have to do it anyway." This episode was produced by Erin McKinstry.
