Do you ever notice how hard it feels to say no? Maybe it's when a colleague asks you to pick up extra work even though you're already drowning in deadlines. Or maybe it's when a friend invites you to something you don't want to do, but you say yes because you don't want to disappoint them.  Saying no often feels uncomfortable, almost like you're letting someone down or being selfish. But what if I told you that saying no could actually be easy? That saying no can be one of the most powerful tools you use to protect your time, your energy, and your mental health? And that saying no can even be done in a way that strengthens, not damages, your relationships?  Let's dive in… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

Today I'm speaking with Edward Latimore—author of “Sober Letters to My Drunken Self”. He's a former professional boxer, and in this episode, we explore his powerful journey from growing up in the projects, his life of addiction, and how he is now living a life of sobriety, self-mastery, and success.  Edward's story is about resilience, personal accountability, and the power of writing and community as tools for healing. Before we jump in, let's talk a little bit about recovery resistance. It's a term I use to describe that feeling of rebelliousness when we hear suggestions of things we could do for our recovery. It could be anything from journaling every morning, to spending 30 minutes meditating, letting go of toxic relationships, or even attending 12 step meetings, just to name a few. I actually dedicated a whole chapter in my book “The 12 Step Guide For Skeptics: Clearing Up Common Misconceptions Of A Path To Sobriety”. The truth is, we experience internal resistance for a good reason, which is ultimately rooted in our subconscious need for safety. But there comes a point when we recognize that some of our habits actually threaten our safety, like addiction, and we need to take action to change that. This is where it gets sticky. You might be aware that you need to change, so you seek answers, but actually taking action - like the exercise, meditation, self-reflection, step work, therapy etc - we balk. We get distracted. We procrastinate.  To combat this resistance, I have a few solutions listed in the book, but here's a quick 4 step process to help you close the gap between knowledge and action. Recognize that resistance or procrastination is a stress response. Try to give yourself some compassion. Practice a technique called “chunking”. Take the task at hand and break it down into tiny little steps. Commit to taking action for 2 minutes at a time Do a 3 second countdown and MOVE. Don't think, just act on that first 2 minute chunk. That's it! And chances are, once you start taking action, momentum will carry you through. If that feels helpful to you, please be sure to get a copy of my book through Amazon. It's full of mindset shifts, little bits of wisdom I've picked up over the years, and some practical suggestions on how to get and stay sober.  So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think!

✨ New Mini-Episode: Sobriety Reset ✨ If you're starting (or restarting) your first 30 days of sobriety, this episode is for you. I share three powerful shifts that make the early days less overwhelming and a lot more doable. Sobriety isn't about perfection—it's about simple strategies that keep you steady.

Do you ever catch yourself standing in front of the fridge or pantry, not because you're hungry, but because you're bored, stressed, or just want a break from everything going on in your life?  Maybe you've had this thought: “Why can't I just eat like a normal person?”  I hear this from my clients all the time, especially high-stress professionals like accountants, lawyers, and business owners. People who can handle complex projects, manage other people's money or businesses, and make huge decisions every day. Yet when it comes to food? It feels like it's the one area that's out of control.  Today, I want to help you understand why you overeat, and more importantly, how you can stop, without relying on willpower. Because the solution isn't about discipline or “eating less.” It's about understanding what's really going on in your brain, the root cause, and learning how to process emotions instead of numbing them with food.  Let's dive in… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

Hi Friend, Thanks for downloading this episode, my name is Arlina and I'll be your host. To contribute to recovery awareness, I am going to be publishing a series of weekly mini episodes for those who are thinking about getting sober or those who need a little bit of a sobriety reset. In fact, that's what I'm going to call it: Sobriety Reset. They will be short episodes focusing on the basics of sobriety. Everything from how to prepare for your first week sober, how to talk to family andamp; friends about it, and what to do when you feel overwhelmed by cravings. This idea is to present the mindset, tools, and practices that will help you reach 100 days and make sobriety stick! I'll post these to Youtube as well, so be sure to subscribe andamp; share with a friend! In this conversation, I'm speaking with Dr. Jason Giles, author of Outsmart Your Addiction. Dr Giles shares his powerful journey from fentanyl addiction to 25 years of recovery as a physician.  What really struck me about his story is that you can be very smart, extremely ambitious, successful by all accounts, and still be vulnerable to addiction.  He opens up about battling imposter syndrome, the belief that life without substances meant “the fun was over,” and the turning points that led him to seek help. Dr. Giles reflects on the role of spiritual awakening, the importance of asking for help, and the lessons he's learned about recovery, neuroscience, and resilience. The discussion highlights how shifting our internal narrative can be the key to lasting change and why he remains hopeful about the future of recovery. So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think! Contact Dr Giles: Book: Learn the Powerful System Developed by a Doctor to Conquer his own Fentanyl Habit

Do you ever wonder why it feels so easy to fall off the wagon when you're chasing a goal? Why you start with excitement, maybe even momentum, but then, somewhere along the way, it starts to feel heavy, exhausting, or just plain hard, and you stop?  This isn't because you lack discipline, and it definitely isn't because you'll never change.  It's because of something called the motivational triad.  Our brains are wired for survival.  To seek pleasure, avoid pain, and conserve energy. That wiring kept our ancestors alive. But in today's world, it's also the reason it feels so much easier to grab a cookie than to meal-prep, to scroll Instagram instead of writing the book, or to stay stuck in the same routine instead of starting something new.  Your brain will always offer you the path of least resistance. That's normal. That's what our brains do. The trick is learning how to work with your brain instead of letting it run the show.  Today, we're talking about how you can persevere even when it gets hard, without beating yourself up, without slipping into all-or-nothing thinking, and without giving up on the life you actually want.  Let's dive in… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

Hi friend, welcome to another episode! If you're new here, my name is Arlina, I've been sober for 31 years and I'm the author of the #1 best selling book “The 12 Step Guide for Skeptics: Clearing up common misconceptions of a path to sobriety”.  And if you hear some snoring in the background, no thats not my husband Bob, its my english bulldog Teddy. Today I'm so excited to share a powerful conversation with author and long-term sober writer, Kyla. She's been sober for over a decade and has such a refreshing perspective on recovery, self-worth, and healing. We talk about the challenges of growing up feeling “not enough,” how external validation can become its own addiction, and the freedom that comes from consistency in recovery practices. Kyla also opens up about her work with therapy and self-love practices, and how these tools continue to deepen her sobriety and sense of self. This episode is packed with wisdom, humor, and honesty—and I think you're going to walk away feeling both encouraged and inspired to keep showing up for yourself, one day at a time. So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think!

Keeping your business simple doesn't mean you can't meet the revenue or profit goals you have for your business.  It also doesn't mean that you can't create a product or service that will meet the needs of your ideal customer.  It's actually the exact opposite.  When you keep your business simple by implementing effective operations, you can obtain greater efficiency and success.  This impacts not only how you are doing business and the results you see in your financial statements, but it will also be seen by your customers when they are looking at your business for help in your area of expertise.  In today's podcast episode, I'm covering how you can keep your business simple by focusing on streamlined processes and effective bookkeeping.  Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you're a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, keeping your business simple will help you stay in control and make running your business a breeze… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

Grab the First-Day in Hawaii ChecklistDid you know simple first-day mistakes in Hawaii can derail your whole trip before day two even starts?For a lot of visitors, the first 24 hours are packed with excitement—and that's when avoidable slip-ups happen with ocean safety, jet lag, and logistics.

Do you ever find yourself stuck in a decision loop?  Be honest here, how often do you find yourself in a situation like this?  You've got a choice to make. Maybe it's about your career, your business, or even something that should feel small, like which project to prioritize today.  Instead of feeling confident, you start to spiral into thoughts like, "What if I make the wrong decision?" "What if this comes back to haunt me later?" or "What if I regret the decision I make?"  Or maybe you do make the decision…but then you spend the next three days (or three weeks) second-guessing yourself.  Does this sound familiar?  I see many of the accountants, business owners, executives, and high-achievers that I work with inside The RE*INVENTION™ Process tell me decision-making is one of their most significant stress points.  Because when you hesitate, or overthink, or wait too long, you start to feel stuck. And nothing drains your energy faster than feeling stuck.  So today, let's talk about how to stop second-guessing, start trusting yourself again, and actually enjoy the decisions you make.  Let's dive in… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

 “The degree of magic you experience in your life will be in direct proportion to the degree you surrender and let go.” Hey friend, My name is Arlina and I'll be your host. I actually have a quick story for you to tell you about today's guest. You may have heard me say that I've been feeling burned out, so I decided to take time off to do a “self-care summer”. I had 3 months worth of amazing interviews pre recorded, I wasn't taking on new clients and the plan was to focus on quieting my mind so that I could listen for God's will for me and to pay attention to what brings me joy. Really, I have been in a state of surrender.  This is where it gets interesting. Sometimes I have to book guests months in advance, and that's what happened with today's guest. So imagine my surprise when it's finally time to interview today's guest Kute Blackson, and guess what… his message is all about the magic of surrender! He said so many things that have absolutely been haunting me, but like in a good way. For instance he said that sometimes our wants come from wounds, which struck me like a lightening bolt. I can see how we want certain things like success or love, but if it comes from a place of an unhealed wound, that it carries an energy of neediness, grasping, chasing, and dysfunction.

Hey friend,  Thank you for downloading this episode! In case we haven't met yet, my name is Arlina, and I'll be your host. I'm sure you have noticed that when you start on the path of being sober, that's when the real work begins. Relationships shift, career goals change, and the old habits that no longer work, need to be rebuilt from the ground up. That's exactly where my client John found himself—knowing he needed better work-life balance, but stuck in a cycle of constantly dealing with one crisis or another. Weekly coaching gave him the clarity, structure, and accountability to finally set boundaries at work, exercise regularly, and be fully present for his family.  You didn't get sober just to survive, you got sober to build a better life. Don't wait for things to “settle down.” Your new life starts now. Book your free clarity call today at soberlifeschool.com. In this wide-ranging conversation with Dr. Martha Koo, we dive into the evolving and sometimes controversial role of psychedelic-assisted therapies in addiction recovery. We explore the tension between traditional 12-step abstinence models and emerging treatments like psilocybin, ketamine, and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).  Dr. Koo shares insights from decades in psychiatry and addiction medicine, including work with MAPS on MDMA therapy for PTSD, and explains how tools like TMS can transform brain patterns, reduce cravings, and improve quality of life—without medication side effects. We discuss how to decide if these therapies are right for you, why environment and community matter, and the importance of pairing peer support with professional guidance.  Whether you're in long-term sobriety, newly sober, or just curious about modern approaches to mental health, this episode will challenge old assumptions and open new possibilities for healing. So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think!

Let me ask you something.  How much frustration are you actually willing to tolerate in your life?  Really think about it.  Because most people don't set out to live in a state of constant irritation.  But over time, without even realizing it, they start treating feeling frustrated like it's just a normal part of their life.  Deadlines are constantly being missed.  Meetings that should've been emails.  Team members who don't provide you with information on time.  Kids who won't listen.  Partners who "forget" things you've reminded them about 14 times.  Does any of this sound familiar?  You don't even realize how much of this you're holding onto until it starts to creep into almost every area of your life.  Your work, your evenings, your energy, and your ability to breathe at the end of the day.  This episode is all about recognizing what frustration is really costing you and how to finally stop losing the control you have over your emotions to everything and everyone around you.  Let's dive in… I'm inviting you to sign up for the free private podcast where I do a deeper dive into this topic on the Mastering Your Mindset Moments podcast for high-stress professionals: https://www.financialadventure.com/private Schedule your Complimentary Stress Audit and Clarity Session, where we'll work together to create a clear and focused plan for you to move forward so you'll immediately start enjoying your life with less stress, increased productivity, and more time to spend doing what you love with the people you care about: https://www.financialadventure.com/work-with-me Accountants, CPAs, Bookkeepers, Tax Preparers & Financial Professionals, sign up here to get updates on upcoming opportunities & grab the Audit Of Your Well-Being & Balance Guide here: https://www.financialadventure.com/accountant Ready to set up your business?  I have a program to help you get your business set up so that you can start making money.  Sign up for this program here: https://www.financialadventure.com/start Are you ready to try coaching?  Schedule an Introductory Coaching Session today.  You'll have the opportunity to see how you like coaching with an Introductory Coaching Session: https://www.financialadventure.com/intro Join us in the Mastering Your Small Business Finances PROFIT LAB if you are ready to take control of your business finances and create the profitable business you are striving for.  Are you ready to generate revenues and increase the profit in your business: https://www.financialadventure.com/profit If You Are Ready To Choose, Start Or Grow Your Side Hustle, Get Your Free Checklist And Assessment Here: https://www.financialadventure.com/sidehustle Grab Your FREE guide:  5 Essential Strategies For Stress-Free Bookkeeping: https://www.financialadventure.com/5essentials Your FREE Online Virtual Bookkeeping Business Starter Guide & Success Path Is Waiting For You: https://www.financialadventure.com/starterguide Join Our Facebook Community:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/womenbusinessownersultimatediybookkeepingboutique The Strategic Bookkeeping Academy, including Bookkeeping Basics, is open for registration!  You can learn more and sign up here: https://www.financialadventure.com/sba Looking for a payroll solution for your business?  You can get an exclusive 15% discount on your payroll services when you sign up here: https://www.financialadventure.com/adp QuickBooks Online - Save 30% Your First 6 Months: https://www.financialadventure.com/quickbooks Sign up for a virtual coffee chat to see if starting a Bookkeeping Business is right for you: https://www.financialadventure.com/discovery Show Notes:  https://www.financialadventure.com This podcast is sponsored by Financial Adventure, LLC ~ visit https://www.financialadventure.com for additional information and free resources.

Before we jump in, I do want to mention that I have a lot of free recovery resources on my website at soberlifeschool.com. There's a guide called “How to quit drinking: 30 tips for your first 30 days” with tips on how to beat cravings, how to answer the inevitable questions about why you're not drinking, how to manage stress, and still have fun! Cuz we are all about having fun, just without the hangover. And one request: If you enjoy this episode, please rate and review on Apple podcasts and share it with a friend. It helps to get the message of hope to those who need it most. Since I started the podcast over 9 years ago, I have talked with hundreds of people, many of them medical experts in a variety of disciplines, about how to heal the underlying issues that cause addiction.  The overwhelming data suggests that psychedelic assisted therapy, done in the right setting with professionals can lead to profound healing. However it is not for everyone and for certain people it's actually contraindicated. These are powerful compounds and the use of them should not be taken lightly.  By way of a disclaimer, I'm obviously not a doctor and I don't play one on the internet, which is why today I am speaking with an actual doctor. This conversation is not to be taken as medical advice. It is for educational purposes only.  The reason I decided to interview Dr Jeff McNairy is because I know compounds like Ayahuasca are being discussed among people in the sober community and I wanted to present information to those considering it, both risks and potential benefits.  In this episode, Dr. Jeff shares his remarkable journey from studying medical anthropology to becoming a licensed psychologist working at the intersection of trauma, neuroscience, and ancient healing practices. We also discuss who should not participate in ayahuasca, what safe preparation and integration really look like, and why this plant medicine is being called “10 years of therapy in one night.”

Hi Friend, If you're new to the podcast, my name is Arlina, I've been sober for 31 years, I'm a recovery coach, a bestselling author, and I'll be your host. If you're a long time listener, you may have noticed I recently enabled ads at the beginning of each episode. Something I haven't done before in the 9 years that I've been hosting the podcast.  With the growing expenses of hosting, and the podcast production team, combined with a decrease in donations, I decided to give ads a try. If you would like to hear ad free episodes, you can join my YouTube membership for as little as $1.99 per month. I will also have an additional membership level that includes private community chat rooms, live stream Q&A and Recovery Coaching with me, so you can overcome obstacles, keep you motivated, and on track. Just visit my youtube channel “the One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast” or you can find a link in the show notes at odaatchat.com So, what happens when you grow up with an alcoholic father and a narcissistic mother—and no safe adult in sight? In this powerful and revealing conversation with Pi Venus, we explore what it's like to grow up in a home where you're told, in words or in silence, that your needs are a burden. My guest shares her story of early emotional abandonment, internalized shame, and the moment she poured her first drink at age 12… and the long road to reclaiming her power, identity, and joy. We talk about the real root causes of addiction, why recovery doesn't stop at quitting substances, and how to reparent the parts of ourselves that still carry fear, shame, and longing. She shares what it's like to heal from narcissistic abuse—first from her mother, then from a romantic partner who mirrored her childhood patterns—and the tools that helped her finally feel safe in her own skin. You'll also hear about: The subtle signs of covert and overt narcissistic abuse Her "spontaneous sobriety" moment and what made it stick How losing everything became a path to finding her true self Why peace can feel boring—and how to get comfortable with it The role of daily ritual, play, and myth in deep healing Her book Mother Medusa and how ancient stories help us rewrite our own This one is for anyone healing from dysfunctional family systems, narcissistic abuse, or unresolved childhood trauma. It's vulnerable, validating, and ultimately empowering.         So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think!

Why do we always want more, even when we know it won't make us happy? In this episode, I speak with Michael Long, co-author of The Molecule of More and author of Taming the Molecule of More, about the true nature of dopamine, craving, and how to reclaim our power from the constant chase for the next hit—whether it's drugs, sugar, social media, or even achievement. We explore: The surprising truth about what dopamine actually does Why the feeling of “wanting” hijacks the brain—and how it relates to addiction How GLP-1 medications (like semaglutide) may help reduce cravings—and why they're not a magic fix The 6 tools from ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) that help us create space between craving and choice What Victor Frankl got right about meaning—and how to find your own Why "enoughness" in the present moment is the antidote to always wanting more If you struggle with addiction, compulsive behavior, or the nagging sense that you're never quite satisfied—this episode offers insight, hope, and actionable tools to reclaim peace, purpose, and presence.

Hi Friend, Thank you for downloading this episode, my name is Arlina, and I'll be your host. I have to admit, this one's going to be tough. With a heavy heart, I want to share that my beloved first sponsor, Kimberly A—affectionately known as Kimmerz—has passed away. She was the gentle, wise soul who walked me through my first year of sobriety. Her kindness and love changed my life. In fact, in my book “The 12 Step Guide for Skeptics”, (and with her blessing of course), I documented how she walked me through the steps and set me on a path that has kept me sober for over 31 years now. In the book I included all the reading assignments and all the written homework that she gave me, as well as many of the lessons she taught me.  As a tribute to Kimmerz, I am republishing the conversation we had in episode 99. My hope is that you will get a sense of just how wonderful she was. She touched so many lives and I'm so grateful to have had the honor of sharing her story. So without further delay, please enjoy this episode with our beloved Kimmerz. May she rest in peace.

Have you ever paused and really asked yourself, Who am I?  I don't mean what you do for a living. Or what others expect of you. I mean the real you. The version of you that shows up when no one's watching. The one that doesn't pretend, doesn't shrink, and doesn't perform.  Most of my clients come to me thinking they'll finally feel like themselves once they hit a certain milestone.  It could be after tax season is over, or when their bank account hits a certain number, or when their business “finally calms down.” But what if the path to becoming your true self doesn't come after the chaos settles? What if it begins right in the middle of the mess?  Let's talk about what it really means to give yourself the gift of being yourself, and why it might be the most powerful thing you ever do.  Let's dive in… I'm inviting you to sign up for the free private podcast where I do a deeper dive into this topic on the Mastering Your Mindset Moments podcast for high-stress professionals: https://www.financialadventure.com/private Schedule your Complimentary Stress Audit and Clarity Session, where we'll work together to create a clear and focused plan for you to move forward so you'll immediately start enjoying your life with less stress, increased productivity, and more time to spend doing what you love with the people you care about: https://www.financialadventure.com/work-with-me Accountants, CPAs, Bookkeepers, Tax Preparers & Financial Professionals, sign up here to get updates on upcoming opportunities & grab the Audit Of Your Well-Being & Balance Guide here: https://www.financialadventure.com/accountant Ready to set up your business?  I have a program to help you get your business set up so that you can start making money.  Sign up for this program here: https://www.financialadventure.com/start Are you ready to try coaching?  Schedule an Introductory Coaching Session today.  You'll have the opportunity to see how you like coaching with an Introductory Coaching Session: https://www.financialadventure.com/intro Join us in the Mastering Your Small Business Finances PROFIT LAB if you are ready to take control of your business finances and create the profitable business you are striving for.  Are you ready to generate revenues and increase the profit in your business: https://www.financialadventure.com/profit If You Are Ready To Choose, Start Or Grow Your Side Hustle, Get Your Free Checklist And Assessment Here: https://www.financialadventure.com/sidehustle Grab Your FREE guide:  5 Essential Strategies For Stress-Free Bookkeeping: https://www.financialadventure.com/5essentials Your FREE Online Virtual Bookkeeping Business Starter Guide & Success Path Is Waiting For You: https://www.financialadventure.com/starterguide Join Our Facebook Community:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/womenbusinessownersultimatediybookkeepingboutique The Strategic Bookkeeping Academy, including Bookkeeping Basics, is open for registration!  You can learn more and sign up here: https://www.financialadventure.com/sba Looking for a payroll solution for your business?  You can get an exclusive 15% discount on your payroll services when you sign up here: https://www.financialadventure.com/adp QuickBooks Online - Save 30% Your First 6 Months: https://www.financialadventure.com/quickbooks Sign up for a virtual coffee chat to see if starting a Bookkeeping Business is right for you: https://www.financialadventure.com/discovery Show Notes:  https://www.financialadventure.com This podcast is sponsored by Financial Adventure, LLC ~ visit https://www.financialadventure.com for additional information and free resources.

In this raw and deeply honest episode, I sit down with Matt, founder of Quit Kit, who shares his journey of quitting not just one — but four addictions: cigarettes, tramadol, kratom, and alcohol. With compassion and candor, Matt opens up about childhood loneliness, suicidal thoughts in active addiction, and the practical tools that helped him not only get sober — but stay that way. We explore: The emotional cost of numbing pain and how mindfulness became a lifeline The power of personal projects and community when you're stuck in withdrawal How supplements like GABA, magnesium, and amino acids support the recovery process What Matt wishes he knew on day one: “The person you're running from is already loved” Why asking for help isnt weakness — it's the beginning of healing I'm so grateful to Matt for his vulnerability, heart, and the powerful reminder that recovery is possible — even if it takes multiple tries. This episode is a message of hope for anyone who feels trapped by addiction or shame. Before we jump in, Are you feeling lost in transition? Youre not alone. In fact, most of my coaching clients are in various phases of transition. Whether youre starting a sober life, changing careers, navigating relationship shifts—or just feeling stuck and unsure what's next—coaching can help. I work with people in all stages of change, and what I've learned is this: The answers are already inside you. But sometimes, you need an outside perspective to help you access them. As they say, “You can't read the label from inside the jar.” If youre feeling anxious that time is slipping away and youre not where you want to be, let's talk. Visit soberlifeschool.com to book a free strategy call. I'd be honored to support you through this next chapter. So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think!

In this episode, I'm joined by Joanna and Matthew Raabsmith—a couple whose story of addiction, betrayal, and ultimately deep healing is nothing short of powerful. Matthew shares his journey through sexual addiction and recovery, while Joanna opens up about the betrayal trauma that nearly broke their relationship—and how they found a way to rebuild trust, intimacy, and connection. We talk about what betrayal trauma really is (hint: it's not codependency), how hiding the truth strips partners of choice, and why full disclosure—when done safely—can be a turning point for couples facing the fallout of hidden addictions. I'm so grateful to Joanna and Matthew for being so open, vulnerable, and generous with their story. Not only have they done their own healing work, they're now guiding other couples through some of the most painful and confusing moments of their lives. If youve ever asked yourself, “Can we really come back from this?”—this conversation is for you. Before we jump in, I wanted to share an update on my “Self-Care Summer” project where I have been focusing the majority of my time on recovering from burnout. I have gone through the workaholic/burnout cycle so many times, I realized it's time to take a step back, quit posting daily content on social media, delete the social apps from my phone, and really take action on all the healing practices that I have discovered over the last 30 years.  My approach was to create a list of activities, and I am listing them in the order that I've been doing them. You can find the list at odaatchat.com under this episode. The list includes: Gratitude List - text to clients andamp; friends Walks With Teddy while listening to educational or inspiring podcasts Weight training andamp; Yoga 12 Step Meetings Journaling: Two Way Prayer, Morning Pages, Education Reflection Journaling 30 Minutes Meditation - Waking Up App Tracking Time: I clock all the things above but also include Step Work Cooking Grooming Gardening Education - There's a bunch of books I want to work through. The intention is to actually do the work suggested in the books. On the docket are: 5 types of wealth by Sahil Bloom, Stop missing your life by Corey Muscara, Make Money Easy by Lewis Howes, and possibly A Course In Miracles Podcasting Client Calls Evening reflection journaling I know it probably sounds like a lot, and I didn't want this to turn into another thing I obsess over. To prevent that, the overarching guiding principle is to do a quick inner compass check and ask, what is the next right indicated action? And if I notice I need to rest or want to focus on play, I do that. The goal is really to practice self-acceptance and to give myself time and space to think about what patterns or stories no longer serve me, and think about who I really want to be and how I really want to spend my time. When we strip away what we think we should do, and get honest about our hearts desire, that's when we can truly align with our life's purpose and live authentically. This is really a process of emerging, and I'm excited about this phase in my journey. So stay tuned for updates! And without further delay, please enjoy this episode with Matt andamp; Joanna.

If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “I just want to feel better,” you're not alone.  When I ask my clients what they want to improve in their lives, no matter how they say it, whether they're talking about stress, burnout, their business, their time, or their health, it almost always comes down to two things.  They either want to be happier or they want to feel better, and that might be what you want, too.  Maybe you've been thinking something like, If I could just get through this month, or If I could finally hire that one person, or even, If I could make more money, get more time back, or stop feeling so overwhelmed.  All of those thoughts are really about one thing.  You want to feel different than how you're feeling right now, right?  Let's dig a little deeper into how that happens.

If you're a beginner blogger wondering when – or if – you'll ever start making money, you're not alone. Whether you've been blogging for a few weeks or a few years, turning your blog into a source of income might feel like something only the bloggers with a big following get to do.But the truth is you don't need thousands of pageviews or a huge amount of content to start earning money. In this episode of the Ultimate Blog Podcast, we're kicking off a three-part series all about making your first $100 blogging – and we're busting the myth that you have to “wait” to be profitable.

Let's be honest.  Relationships can feel exhausting sometimes. Whether it's your spouse, your coworker, your boss, a longtime friend, or even that one client who always sends you “urgent” emails at 10:47 p.m. on a Sunday night.  What's really going on in those moments? Why do we find ourselves spinning, analyzing, and trying to “figure out” how to make a relationship better, only to end up frustrated, resentful, or just totally drained?  I get a lot of questions from my clients about relationships. Romantic relationships, friendships, business partnerships, colleagues, clients, you name it. And while the faces and names change, the problems usually don't. They are normally some version of, why do I feel like I care more than they do, how do I stop overthinking everything they said, why can't they just show up the way I need them to, or should I stay in this relationship, or is it time to go?  Are you ready to learn about the three key components of every relationship?  They may not be what you think.  You'll learn how to stop trying to control others in sneaky ways, how to get your power back in a relationship, and what it actually takes to create healthy, peaceful, connected relationships, even if nothing about the other person ever changes.  Let's dive in...  I'm inviting you to sign up for the free private podcast where I do a deeper dive into this topic on the Mastering Your Mindset Moments podcast for high-stress professionals: https://www.financialadventure.com/private Schedule your Complimentary Stress Audit and Clarity Session, where we'll work together to create a clear and focused plan for you to move forward so you'll immediately start enjoying your life with less stress, increased productivity, and more time to spend doing what you love with the people you care about: https://www.financialadventure.com/work-with-me Accountants, CPAs, Bookkeepers, Tax Preparers & Financial Professionals, sign up here to get updates on upcoming opportunities & grab the Audit Of Your Well-Being & Balance Guide here: https://www.financialadventure.com/accountant Ready to set up your business?  I have a program to help you get your business set up so that you can start making money.  Sign up for this program here: https://www.financialadventure.com/start Are you ready to try coaching?  Schedule an Introductory Coaching Session today.  You'll have the opportunity to see how you like coaching with an Introductory Coaching Session: https://www.financialadventure.com/intro Join us in the Mastering Your Small Business Finances PROFIT LAB if you are ready to take control of your business finances and create the profitable business you are striving for.  Are you ready to generate revenues and increase the profit in your business: https://www.financialadventure.com/profit If You Are Ready To Choose, Start Or Grow Your Side Hustle, Get Your Free Checklist And Assessment Here: https://www.financialadventure.com/sidehustle Grab Your FREE guide:  5 Essential Strategies For Stress-Free Bookkeeping: https://www.financialadventure.com/5essentials Your FREE Online Virtual Bookkeeping Business Starter Guide & Success Path Is Waiting For You: https://www.financialadventure.com/starterguide Join Our Facebook Community:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/womenbusinessownersultimatediybookkeepingboutique The Strategic Bookkeeping Academy, including Bookkeeping Basics, is open for registration!  You can learn more and sign up here: https://www.financialadventure.com/sba Looking for a payroll solution for your business?  You can get an exclusive 15% discount on your payroll services when you sign up here: https://www.financialadventure.com/adp QuickBooks Online - Save 30% Your First 6 Months: https://www.financialadventure.com/quickbooks Sign up for a virtual coffee chat to see if starting a Bookkeeping Business is right for you: https://www.financialadventure.com/discovery Show Notes:  https://www.financialadventure.com This podcast is sponsored by Financial Adventure, LLC ~ visit https://www.financialadventure.com for additional information and free resources.
