    Is it Resilience or Is It Burnout?

    What if the problem isn’t that you’re not resilient enough, but that you’ve been trying to push through burnout? There's a lot of pushback against the word "resilience" these days, but perhaps its because we've lost a grasp on what resilience really is. Listen in for a fresh perspective to beat the burnout and get your true resilient self back on track.  Promised Links from This Episode: Connect with Others Who Were Quoted in this Episode.

    Beyond the "Perfect" Morning: Real Routines for Real Life

    We’ve all seen those "aesthetic" morning routines on social media, but what happens when you’re managing menopause, chronic pain, lack of sleep or just a naturally chaotic schedule? In this episode, I’m getting honest about why it took me until age 52 to find a routine that actually worked for me. In this episode, I get into some submissions from our awesome listeners (THANK YOU for sharing) and how they're managing (or not managing) their morning routines. I hope this episode gives you ideas for crafting mornings that serve you better and put you on the path to the productive days you're looking for.

    The Lost Art of Collaboration for Growth and Fulfillment

    Hope this new episode reaches you doing well. I've been super busy and as usual, I've been wearing all kinds of hats in life and business. Even so, there's a theme that keeps coming up lately that I find so inspiring and comforting that I wanted to share it with you as well. That theme is COLLABORATION. It's not a new concept by any means, but in today's world that seems more about carrying heavy weight in solitude than ever...it's something to build back in our lives if it was missing. LINKS AND RESOURCES: The Big Lie about Growing Your Business in Social Media - I share stats about just how much social media algorithms get us to serve them, while we get little in return. "The Greatest Night in Pop" Documentary - It's all about the making of "We Are the World" in 1985. The nostalgia is wonderful, but the look into artistry and collaboration is so inspiring.

    Appreciating the Gifts of Your Relationships with Lynn Terry and Alice Seba

    I was thrilled to sit down with her long-time friend and fellow entrepreneur, Lynn Terry. I know many of our audience members know and love Lynn, so I'm so happy to share this with you. We actually spoke for a couple hours and let the conversation flow, but I finally pinpointed the part I wanted to share with you because it shared some of Lynn's very best wisdom. Lynn has struggled with some very devastating effects of long covid and for the past few years has struggled with neurological issues and maintaining a normalcy in life, while she navigates visits to countless doctors looking for solutions to her health issues. But as you'll hear in the interview, she is still that positive and wise woman we all know and love. We talked about... * Reflecting on how you became who you are. * The special gifts from people in your life that help shape who you are. * Giving space to let people help you, even when you think you can do everything yourself. * Lynn's 2 rules of living with your loved one * How to help people who don't want help We hope you love it! What takeaways did you find?

  5. Staying SANE, Growing and Happy with Winter Hobbies

    Staying SANE, Growing and Happy with Winter Hobbies

    Don't go crazy this winter...or die of boredom. 😨 Find things that enrich you, that you appreciate and can share with others. Winter can feel quiet, long, and disorienting, especially when life has recently changed. In this quick check-in episode, I’m sharing how I’m navigating a slower season, what winter hobbies are helping me stay grounded and creative, and why this period of less has been unexpectedly meaningful. A few things I promised in the episode: * Learn about the AI Vibe Music Mastery - the course I took to give me my intro to AI music. Ken shows you the AI tools, how to create prompts, explores popular YouTube channels and more. * Hear a couple of my favourite playlist of tracks I've created to see the kind of music for moods I'm putting together. -- Focus Playlist: Great for putting in the background while you work. -- Lift Your Mood Playlist: Excellent for putting on the background while you do chores, attend to daily tasks and more...to brighten your spirits and energize you. Let me know what you think. 🎶 * Stay up-to-date on the Lifestyle Self-Made Blog: Be sure to "Free Guidebook" at the top right corner to get updates by email and get our free "Lifestyle Self-Made Guidebook" * My post about "My Year of Less Wrapped Up with Intention": Sometimes it's time to cut out the noise and all the stuff and just keep simple.  Thanks for listening. Be sure to share your hobbies and things you're working on. Would love to see!  More Useful Links for You: •  GET YOUR FREE "MY LIFESTYLE SELF-MADE GUIDEBOOK":  It's the perfect way to take stock in what you have in your life, so you can balance all the priorities in your life to achieve exactly what you want.

  6. The Myth of Consistency and What You Need Instead

    10/05/2025

    The Myth of Consistency and What You Need Instead

    We’ve all been told that consistency is the key to success—whether it’s posting every day on social media, going to the gym a certain number of times a week, or sticking to the same routines no matter what. But what happens when “showing up” becomes a trap? When you’re just going through the motions without asking if it’s even moving you closer to what you want? In this episode of Lifestyle Self-Made, Alice Seba challenges the myth of consistency and introduces a more powerful (and freeing) approach: diligence. Instead of blindly repeating tasks, diligence asks us to be intentional, present, and aware of why we’re doing what we’re doing. From business to health, parenting to personal growth, Alice explores the difference between doing things just to tick the box and doing them with purpose. You’ll see why diligence helps you actually grow, avoid burnout, and create a life that truly works for you—not just one that looks consistent from the outside. If you’ve ever felt trapped by the pressure to “keep up” or guilty for breaking your streaks, this conversation will give you permission to rethink the rules and build habits that actually matter.

    When It Feels Like the World is On Your Shoulders

    So many of us know the feeling of carrying too much—responsibility for family, work, health, and all the unspoken expectations that pile on top. It can feel like there’s no way out, like the weight will always be there. In this episode of Dear Alice, Alice Seba speaks directly to that heavy place. She doesn’t just acknowledge the overwhelm—she offers a way of seeing it differently. A way that makes space for relief, perspective, and even joy in the middle of everything you’re holding. If you’ve ever felt like you’re expected to do it all, this conversation will help you loosen that grip and discover a gentler, more freeing way forward.
