    Episode 51- Dear, 42. Thank you. Goodbye. Bring on 43.

    On this birthday episode of Be Jennuine Podcast, I’m taking a moment to look back before stepping forward. As we approach milestones in life, such as birthdays or New Year’s, it’s natural to reflect on our past year. You may ask yourself, "What am I leaving behind?" and "What do I want to bring into the new year?" This post draws from personal experiences and insights to help you understand the power of change and personal growth. ## Why Embracing Change Matters Change is an essential part of life. It can be daunting, but it also opens the door to fresh opportunities. Embracing change allows us to shed old habits, limiting beliefs, and relationships that no longer serve us. By doing so, we can step into our future with renewed energy and purpose. ## What Are You Tolerating? One of the first questions to consider is: **What are you currently tolerating that doesn’t align with your future goals?** Tolerating things that don’t fit can drain your energy and hinder your growth. For example, if you want to achieve your dream job, you need to recognize that some aspects of it may not be ideal, but they are necessary. Consider the parts of your life that you are simply putting up with. Are there excuses you keep leaning into that are holding you back? ### Recognizing Limiting Beliefs Limiting beliefs can be insidious, affecting your confidence and decision-making. Ask yourself: **What fears are dictating your choices?** Many of us let fear prevent us from pursuing opportunities. For instance, one listener shared how fear had previously kept her from trying out for a school softball team. This year, she faced her fears and gave it her all, regardless of the outcome.  ## The Importance of Mindset Your mindset is crucial in shaping your reality. **Are you holding onto a scarcity mindset?** If so, it may be time to shift to an abundance mindset. Many people who pursue personal growth consciously choose to let go of negative thinking patterns. High five to those committing time and energy to better themselves! ### Habits That Don’t Match Your Goals Consider your habits: **What actions aren’t aligned with where you want to be?** If your goal is to improve your fitness, but you're not exercising, it's time to reassess your daily routine. Identify habits that need to change and take actionable steps toward healthier choices. ## Relationships That Lift You Up Evaluate your relationships: **Which connections add value to your life, and which ones drain your energy?** As a busy single mom, I’ve found that my time is precious. I need my friendships to be uplifting and supportive. Don’t be afraid to have tough conversations about your needs and set boundaries with those who don’t contribute to your happiness. ### Forgiveness and Self-Compassion Finally, take stock of the areas where you need to forgive yourself. We all carry guilt and shame about past decisions. **What do you need to let go of to move forward?** Practicing self-compassion can be transformative and is vital for personal growth. Recognize that everyone makes mistakes; it’s how we learn and grow. ## Key Takeaways - Identify what you are tolerating that doesn’t serve your future goals. - Recognize and challenge your limiting beliefs. - Evaluate your habits and relationships, ensuring they align with your aspirations. - Practice self-forgiveness and compassion as you move forward. As you reflect on the past year and prepare for the next, remember that change is a powerful catalyst for growth. Commit to leaving behind what no longer serves you, and embrace the possibilities that lie ahead. Listen, reflect, and maybe ask yourself: What are you leaving behind this year… and what are you ready to welcome next? Subscribe, share, and join me on this journey of becoming more of who you truly are.

    Mental Toughness- The Muscle You Have to Keep Building

    In this episode, I’m opening up about my own journey of building mental toughness and why it has become such a central part of my life. After completely rebuilding in 2023, I discovered that the thing that kept me grounded was my daily routine—the discipline that reminded me every single morning that I could do hard things. Now, as I take on the 75 Hard challenge, I’m talking about what it really means to commit, how to recognize the moments we self-sabotage, and why resilience isn’t just about pushing through—it’s about who we believe ourselves to be. I’ll share how identity and faith play a powerful role in overcoming fear and procrastination, and why choosing discomfort is often the very thing that makes us stronger. This conversation is for anyone who knows they’re capable of more but struggles to take action. My hope is that you’ll walk away believing in your own strength and ready to build a life you’re proud of—one small, consistent commitment at a time. #75hard #mentaltoughness

    From Law to Wellness and Burnout to Brilliance: Lora Cheadle's Story

    In this episode of the Be Jennuine Podcast, I sit down with Lora Cheadle, a leadership wellness coach, TEDx speaker, and bestselling author. Lora shares her powerful journey from practicing law to becoming a wellness expert and opens up about how burnout and betrayal can actually become catalysts for transformation. She introduces her Fuel Up Burnout Recovery Method and explains how movement and somatic practices help us process emotions and restore balance. We dive into the importance of self-discovery, authenticity, and vulnerability in healing, and we also talk about practical tools like managing expectations and even using humor as a way to release stress. This conversation is such an empowering reminder that real resilience comes when we lead with unshakable authenticity. "I had to heal that material trauma.""Burnout is absolutely real.""Laughter is contagious." Lora Cheadle transitioned from law to wellness after experiencing burnout. Betrayal trauma can be as impactful as burnout. Healing involves both processing emotions and education. Self-discovery is crucial for personal growth and healing. Authenticity allows individuals to embrace their true selves. Burnout is chronic stress that one cannot manage effectively. Identifying expectations can help manage feelings of betrayal. Movement is essential for emotional processing and healing. Humor can help re-regulate the nervous system during stress. Your authenticity is your superpower, allowing you to embrace vulnerability.
