This Podcast is all about helping humans think in ways that is empowering. Empowered humans, empower humans and our goal at Empowered in My Skin is to help develop one billion humans who are lead dominos for empowerment. Regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, etc., everyone deserves to be empowered in the skin that they are in. Empowered humans are thriving humans. It is our birthright to thrive. When we own our thrive, we are operating from a position of empowerment, and celebrating life in the present moment without fear. It is human nature to feel uncertain, but why does it have to take us away from our thrive, our creativity, and throw us off balance?  If we can recognize that being empowered is us choosing to accept all that is, then we have the ability to step into clarity and live in the present moment. Our "now" is all that we have and where our infinite empowered energy resides.  Stay connected with the host, Nkechi Nwafor-Robinson online;  https://linktr.ee/nkechinwaforrobinson

    Empowering Bytes: Discipline Over Mood & The Power of Identity-Based Habits

    How many times have you woken up, checked in with how your body feels, and let your current mood dictate whether you get things done? The truth is, motivation is completely unreliable.

Meanwhile, Gaby highlights how building strong daily systems, honoring your word, and taking micro-actions can completely transform your personal and professional life. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Discipline Over Mood: Why action cannot depend on how you feel in the moment.The Danger of the Morning "Body Scan": How to step out of bed with authority before your mind makes excuses.Identity-Based Habits & Atomic Habits: Staying true to your word long after the initial motivation fades.Building Systems for Success: What to evaluate when you find yourself procrastinating on big projects.The Brené Brown 10-Minute Rule: Why doing 10 minutes of work is vastly better than the 60 minutes you put off.
