    Episode 59: How to Revamp Your Schedule and Create More Time

    Episode 59: How to Revamp Your Schedule and Create More Time

    If you’re anything like me, there are days that pass by and you can’t account for each hour of your day. Maybe you’re spending more time than planned watching TV or scrolling social media. You haven’t been able to identify the gaps in your schedule, thus you don’t know how to make time for your priorities. You don’t know what causes distractions, so you have no real, consistent plan for your time.

    Time is relative and it’s different for every one of us. You and I both have different demands on our time, thus our 24 hours will not look the same. However, we can all benefit from determining our real priorities and creating time for what matters most to us.

    Join me in this episode as I help you figure out what your real priorities are, how to create more time in your day, and how you can be in charge of your own schedule, so that you can focus on your priorities and plans.

    Episode 58: How to Navigate Hearing No at Work

    Episode 58: How to Navigate Hearing No at Work

    I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve coached women through the fear of hearing, “No.” So many of us are afraid of feeling rejected and we take the “No” personally. We don’t try new things, we don’t ask for what we deserve, and we don’t give ourselves a chance to pursue our dreams because we fear potential rejection.

    Rejection decreases your ability to keep pushing forward. It increases anger, anxiety, depression, jealousy, and sadness. It drives imposter syndrome and lack of self-confidence. It sabotages your future success.
    Join me in this episode as I unpack the fear of hearing, “No,” the underlying fear being rejected, and how you can push past that fear.

Ep. 58 Is Everything!

I feel like Dorianne created this episode for me personally. I don’t handle “No” well and now I am doing the work to learn why. “No” is not any indication of my value or worth. Thank you, Dorianne, for this mid-week therapy session.
