I Heart My Life Show Emily Williams

In this episode of the I Heart My Life Show, I had the pleasure of hosting Asha, a periodontist and dentist by profession, who is currently on a journey of self-discovery and finding her voice. Our conversation revolved around the importance of letting go of societal expectations and following one's heart.
The Journey of Self-Discovery Asha's journey of self-discovery is a testament to the power of introspection and personal growth. She emphasized the importance of letting go of preconceived notions of what the future should look like, and instead, focusing on the present. She advised listeners to follow their hearts first and then let their brains guide them in the right direction.
Asha is currently in a space of self-discovery and finding her voice, particularly in discussing topics that are often not talked about, especially among women. She highlighted the tendency to define ourselves by our professions and encouraged listeners to explore who they are beyond their careers.
Seeking Help and Healing Asha's journey wasn't without its challenges. She realized that she needed help and reached out to trusted friends, therapists, and spiritual teachers. She talked about the process of healing her inner child and detaching from societal conditioning and expectations.
One of the major life changes she made was ending a long-term relationship. She emphasized the importance of giving oneself permission to grow and evolve, even when it means making difficult decisions.
Embracing Authenticity and Facing Fear Asha discussed the fear and uncertainty she faced when making the decision to change her relationship and the impact it had on her life. She emphasized the importance of authenticity and surrendering to the unknown.
She also talked about the fear of judgment and the guilt she felt as a mother, but ultimately realized that her own happiness was important. She shared how letting go of fear opened up new opportunities and brought her closer to people who were aligned with her true self.
The Power of Vulnerability and Self-Love Asha acknowledged that not everyone understood her choices, including some close friends, but she learned to prioritize self-love and accept that not everyone will be on the same journey. She also highlighted the power of vulnerability and the healing it brings, especially when sharing personal experiences on a public platform.
Breaking Cultural Stigmas As someone from an Indian background, Asha acknowledged the cultural challenges and stigma surrounding divorce but emphasized that personal growth and happiness should be prioritized. She discussed the challenges of divorce within the Indian community and the shame and stigma associated with it.
Despite her fear of how her parents and the community would react to her decision, she decided to break the silence and share her story through writing a book and speaking publicly about her experiences.
Final Thoughts In response to my final question, Asha advised listeners to let go of expectations and be present. This conversation with Asia was a powerful reminder of the importance of self-discovery, authenticity, and the courage to follow one's heart. It's a journey that may not be easy, but it's certainly worth it.

In this episode, our host, Emily Williams, sits down with Meghna Dassani, a practicing dentist from Houston, Texas. Meghna's work goes beyond just teeth - she specializes in treating and managing sleep apnea in both adults and children.
 
In this conversation, Meghna shares her personal journey and the pivotal moment that inspired her to delve into the world of sleep apnea. It all started with the loss of her father-in-law to this condition, which prompted her to seek answers and find a way to prevent her own family from experiencing such a tragic loss.
 
As Meghna dug deeper, she discovered that sleep apnea is far more common than we realize. It can affect not only adults but also children, who often go undiagnosed due to a lack of awareness. She discusses the telltale signs to look out for in children, such as bedwetting, fatigue, and behavior issues.
 
Sleep apnea occurs when a person repeatedly stops breathing for 10 seconds or longer during sleep. This interruption in breathing causes oxygen deprivation and puts strain on the heart. The consequences can be significant, ranging from high blood pressure and diabetes to stroke and even early onset Alzheimer's. Meghna's insights shed light on the interconnectedness of sleep health and overall wellbeing.
 
Meghna also shares the treatment options available, both for adults and children. She explains how her practice has successfully integrated sleep apnea management and presents hope for those seeking relief and improved quality of life.
 
Whether you have personal experience with sleep apnea or are simply curious to learn more about this hidden danger, this episode is a must-listen. So grab your favorite beverage, a notebook, and tune in to hear Meghna and Emily dive deep into the world of sleep apnea.

In an inspiring episode of Emily Williams’s ‘I Heart My Life Show,’ Blair Jones offers a glimpse into her captivating journey – a unique weave of challenges and victories that captured the hearts of listeners. Blair affirmed her place as a black sheep in her family and life, showing the extraordinary power of going against the norm to discover a path filled with abundance and joy.
The reality of Blair’s entrepreneurial journey wasn’t without resistance. From the skeptical outlook of her mom, an unpredictable journey to financial success, to the struggle for self-acceptance in an increasingly judgmental society, Blair’s journey unmasked the truths often hidden behind successful network marketing entrepreneurs. However, her resilience surpassed all the familial resistance, eventually retiring her mom with the prosperity she garnered from her efforts.
Blair beautifully depicted herself as a trailblazer who takes pride in forging a unique path away from the conventional crowd. She refused to be tamed by societal expectations and instead channeled her energy into manifesting her dreams. For her, success was a combination of a positive mindset, direct action, and being genuine in a pursuit filled with uncertainty and high risks.
Blair’s journey wasn’t an overnight transformation. It took seven years for her to reach her initial income goal. Speaking about this journey, Blair candidly expressed her struggle to balance her success with the fear of losing it all. Yet, through these challenges, she found nourishment in recognizing her worthiness and understanding that achieving her dreams requires an achiever’s mindset.
In the world of network marketing, Blair sees it as a boundless field accessible to all, regardless of education or background. Interestingly, women, who compose 75% of millionaires in network marketing, have a significant role in this industry. Another remarkable fact Blair shared is that 90% of millionaires have some residual income, a unique opportunity offered by network marketing.
She also believes in the transformative power of self-care, dedicating time to biohacking and nurturing the mind, body, and soul. On her path to balance pursuing her dreams and maintaining a grounded life, Blair incorporated points of pause – such as mindfully enjoying a meal or taking a moment to unwind by watching TV. This practice became a crucial part of her daily routine, allowing her the space to disconnect from the outside world and reconnect with herself.
Talking about her relationship with her husband, she highlighted the importance of open conversations and clear boundaries. She found that setting goals together, including weekly love meetings and dedicated family time, helped her and her spouse stay connected and effectively manage their dreams.
Whether combing through the forms of resistance she faced or basking in the overflow of her achieved goals, Blair’s story painted the spectrum of entrepreneurship in true detail. By sharing her obstacles, achievements, beliefs, and practices, she truly encapsulated the essence of an empowered, determined, and fulfilled entrepreneur; redefining success in her own terms.
In conclusion, Blair Jones’s captivating episode on ‘I Heart My Life Show’ reaffirms that personal achievements are not dictated by societal norms or expectations. Instead, they are constructed through self-belief, perseverance, and the courage to create our own uncharted paths. Thank you, Blair, for your inspiring story of harnessing hope and taming fears to create a fulfilling life. You truly embody the power of non-negotiables for success in business and life.

She's one of those humans who really sees you when you're in her presence, and there's never anything surface-level about the conversation.

Here are some of the topics we covered together…

Quotes:
The Art of Friendship: "Keep your mouth shut, Monica. Be quiet until asked and become really good at listening."— Monika Zands

Navigating Relationship Dynamics: "One of the things we got really clear of probably about ten years into our marriage, and we've been married 22 years, but together 30. So about ten years into our marriage, we started saying, hey, I don't want to make an assumption that who you've always been is who you are today. So there are going to be times when I think you'll do this, but I'm going to still ask, and I want you to know that I'm simply asking to honor you."— Monika Zands 

"Balancing Family and Business: 'Okay, can we breathe?' Even if it gets a little scary, because we're spending a lot of the focus time on our daughter because the clock is ticking."— Monika Zands 

Butterflies and the Beauty of Life: "I said to Jan, what a beautiful reminder and metaphor for life that we every season has its day by day nuances. That one day there were no butterflies, and the very next day there's thousands of butterflies coming out of their cocoons. And what if we could relate to each other? Like, who's the you I'm meeting today? And how do I nurture what we need to have a beautiful reflection, like gratitude at the end of a day?"— Monika Zands 

Love Languages and Communication:"We have very different love languages. I'm an Acts of Service love language, and he's a words of affirmation. So what fills him and has him feel reassured is not the same as what fills me."— Monika Zands 

The Power of Awareness: "But the awareness knows the need doesn't need to be met to feel whole."— Monika Zands 

The Power of Inner Resources: "Everyone was born with their own inner resources to do the work they need to do."— Monika Zands 

Deeper Sense of Breathing: "When I listen to these recordings, it stops me because the whole premise of these recordings is the distinction of the wanter and the longing and the more and the not enough. And the observer of all is well, and how cute or how sweet or how tender of that girl who's doing those things. And when I can see both of those sides of me, this beautiful walk between both, actually, it strengthens and softens my nervous system. So I'm not having the natural stress response. I'm actually going into a deeper sense of breathing."— Monika Zands 

Ping Pong in Relationships: "And what tends to happen is we were modeled by our parents or modeled by whoever did relationship around us that someone's right and someone's wrong."— Monika Zands
