307: Are you sabotaging your joy?

“If happiness is what you’re after, then you are going to be let down frequently…Joy, though, is something else. It’s not a choice, not a response to some result, it is a constant. Joy is ‘the feeling we have from doing what we are fashioned to do’, not matter the outcome.” -Matthew McConaughey.  In this episode, you will learn: How you’re sabotaging your joy without even knowing it  The dangers of all or nothing thinking How to infuse more joy into your life just by being yourself  Xo H P.S.

306: Giving Your Loved Ones the Gift of Experiences

306: Giving Your Loved Ones the Gift of Experiences

I want to dedicate this episode to my dear friend, Michelle, who was recently promoted to heaven. She and I were diagnosed with cancer around the same time, and her journey was a very public one. She made waves in healthcare and the community. In July, she took a trip to Thailand with her family. She announced over instagram “For the next two weeks, I’ll spend my time the most important way, making memories with my kids.” In light of her example, today I want to talk about living life on our own terms, and infusing the deep connection we desire with our families. I have prepared a ton of examples of how you can give experiences to your loved ones over gifts this holiday season. Some of the ideas I use were inspired by a blog post I read on Mother.ly https://www.mother.ly/life/experience-gifts-to-give-instead-of-toys   Here are some websites mentioned in today's episode:  www.bouqs.com www.littlepassports.com www.farmstayus.com www.chatbooks.com www.familyacademy.co/bepresentbox …………………………………………..............................................................

305: Managing the Overwhelm of the Holiday Season

305: Managing the Overwhelm of the Holiday Season

Today I want to share a little bit about managing your energy this holiday season. What does that look like for you? The holidays can be a stressful time for many of us. Buyers’s remorse, pressure from family, over scheduling events, and the fear of judgement are some of the many things I've heard women name as a source for their stress during the holidays. I invite you to welcome it in, and then ask yourself, “What am I learning from this situation?” It’s ok to say “no.” You have to set healthy boundaries to manage your energy, your resources, and your time. Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American friends, and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season, and remember, you are enough. ..................................................................................................

304: My Business Journey. How it started and the evolution

304: My Business Journey. How it started and the evolution

Today I want to share my business journey with you. It’s important to dream for change. This is how we change the world, and have a ripple effect. I left a traditional world of therapists to seek other alternative and holistic approaches to healing myself and the people around me. My business and money story wasn’t easy. I’d have money come in and then I’d reinvest it, and watch it go out. I didn’t know how to create profit or get out of debt. I learned that I couldn’t do it all on my own, and I had to get the right help. If you feel called to do something, realize that there is a lot that goes into it. If you’re looking at my story, don’t look at where I’m at right now. Realize that what I’ve created in a decade, you can’t create overnight. I wouldn’t be where I am today without continuously taking action. I’m not talking about hustling, or burning yourself out. We don’t have to neglect ourselves physically, emotionally, or spiritually to be successful or to be a good mother. Give yourself permission to want what you want. What do you want? Focus on what you your soul craves, create a plan and action steps to get there, and don’t give up on the whole process. .................................................................................................

303: Creating Momentum

303: Creating Momentum

Creating your life in alignment with how you want to feel and the person that you are meant to be is not about hustle, or burning yourself out. It’s about MOTHERING YOURSELF, and taking care of your needs first so you can be in a place to meet the needs of those who depend on you.  What is your soul craving? There will be resistance, fear and excuses.  We have to run toward the discomfort instead of running away from it to create momentum. Today I want to share about Creating Momentum: Put it on the calendar Get an accountability partner Follow through When we create momentum, we begin to live our lives in alignment and we start FEELING the way we want to feel. ..................................................................................................

302: The Connection Between Emotion & Energy

302: The Connection Between Emotion & Energy

How do I get myself back into alignment when I feel off? Today's episode is about taking control, not of the everything around you, but your own emotions and energy. You have to put effort and energy into how you want to feel, and that is the most unselfish thing you can do. Today I share a little bit about my own journey and how I used to handle stressful situations by controlling the things around me. As soon as I discovered how to let go of control and started nurturing myself, I started approaching my relationships from a place of ease and love, and my circumstances became easier. There will always be days when I feel off because this is life, but I still feel in control because I know what I need to do. Tomorrow is always a new day, and I know I can use the time and energy management techniques that I teach to get myself back to where I need to be. .............................................................................................

301: My Personal Struggle With Asking For Help

We can see the light in others, but we can’t always see how bright OUR light is. The beauty is I find hints difficult, just like you. This is what makes us human.  This is why I’m such a fan of community. We were not created to live alone.  In this podcast episode I talk about some uncomfortable decisions I had to make in order to get my book out into the world.  It's time to start asking for help, and realize you CANNOT do this alone. There are resources all around you, you just have to look for them.   Also a friendly reminder:  We are now accepting applications for the Time and Energy Intensive.

298: Vulnerability, Leadership & Feeling Energized

One of my favorite humans is Brene Brown, author of Dare To Lead  In her new book, Dare To Lead, she writes...  "To feel is to be vulnerable. Believing that vulnerability is a weakness is believing that feeling is a weakness. And like it or not, we are emotional beings.  We know that vulnerability is the cornerstone of courage building, but we often fail to realize that without vulnerability there is no creativity or innovation. Why? Because there is nothing more uncertain than the creative process, and there is absolutely no innovation without failure."    In order to live the life we desire to live, we must FEEL everything that is inside of us.    This Friday, October 26th at 10 am EST I'm hosting a FREE TRAINING called Finish Your Year Energized.     During this *FREE ONLINE TRAINING* You Will Learn: ● How to manage your emotions on a daily basis. ● How to say “NO” to what drains you, and “YES” to what serves you. ● How to hold energetic and time boundaries with people, so you don’t feel drained by their demands and negative energy. ● How to create space for your big dreams--the life you want to be living (parenting, relationships, health, career etc..)   Click here for registration details: www.heatherchauvin.com/energy

“ Negative emotions like loneliness, envy, and guilt have an important role to play in a happy life; they're big, flashing signs that something needs to change.” -Gretchen Rubin I see guilt as a mask to something more. Culturally we’ve accepted it as part of the norm but I see it as a coping strategy to keep our ego save.  Standing out, been seen and living a free, abnormal, amazing life is preceived as a cultural no-no.

287: Big RISKS = Big Rewards (Interview with Yukari Ogawa)

287: Big RISKS = Big Rewards (Interview with Yukari Ogawa)

“Placing the blame or judgment on someone else leaves you powerless to change your experience; taking responsibility for your beliefs and judgments gives you the power to change them” ― Byron Katie I have a fascination with understanding why people do what they do and how one person can 'succeed' when another remains 'stuck.' Today's podcast guest is someone who inspires me. An everyday woman who took a leap of faith packed her bags and moved to the US from Japan to go to college.  Since then she has become a Veterinarian Technician and now owns an international business that bridges the gap in the Industry supporting Japanese Veterinarians.    During this episode Yukari and I talk about:  * Her experience coming to the US alone, without understanding much English at the time.  * How her skills of resiliency have continued to help her through life, marriage, and motherhood.  * The Work of Byron Katie (www.thework.com) and how that has drastically helped Yukari create emotional freedom.  xo H

286: The Slow Sustainable Incline To Success

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.” – Albert Einstein   During this episode I talk about:  Sustainability is not a race. Chill out, slow down and still accomplish your goals.  Why 'doing the daily work' will help you cope with life when the unexpected happens (because they will).  Why showing up 70% every day is more sustainable than 110% 3 x a week.   Ready to feel good about your relationship with time? Are you ready to stop beating yourself up for not getting it all done (because you never will)?  And...  Are you done feeling angry and resentful towards time?  We are now hosting a FREE TIME FREEDOM CHALLENGE inside our private Facebook Group.

284: The 4th child you never knew I had (and what she is teaching me)

284: The 4th child you never knew I had (and what she is teaching me)

Any intimate relationship, like the one we have with children, will show us exactly where and how we can grow. They trigger us. They point out our deep wounds and force us to look at them (or run away from them).  Intimacy in any relationship is uncomfortable, vulnerable and sometimes heartbreaking.  Our expectations of who we want this person to be are different than who they really are.  This is the relationship I've had with my body over the last 5 years. The 4th children, you never knew I had.    In episode 284 I talk about:  * How our bodies have tantrums, just as children do.  * Why we need to understand what red, green and yellow zones.  * The correlation between mothering my own physical children and mothering my physical body. It's all about relationships and how we choose to lead our own lives.  You have one body and limited time in it. Don't waste in constant conflict with the one person you can never get away from... yourself. xo H  P.S. We still have a few spots left for the Fall Round of MIIC Mastery, if you've been interested in coaching with me 1:1, now is your opportunity. Click here for more details: www.momisincontrol.com

283: Being Sick Never Felt Better!

283: Being Sick Never Felt Better!

“Stop walking through the world looking for confirmation that you don’t belong. You will always find it because you’ve made that your mission. Stop scouring people’s faces for evidence that you’re not enough. You will always find it because you’ve made that your goal. True belonging and self-worth are not goods; we don’t negotiate their value with the world. The truth about who we are lives in our hearts. Our call to courage is to protect our wild heart against constant evaluation, especially our own. No one belongs here more than you.” ― Brené Brown   In this podcast episode I talk about:  Why I'm done pretending living a 'normal' life is enough for me. How fear can make you sick, but it doesn't have to hold you back.  Why choosing yourself over and over again will create the most profound connection you've ever imagined.  How to let your body guide you through this process.    The truth is, I want more, and I'm going to continue going after it. Because the more I have, the more I can give.  The more time I have, the more I can spend it with those who matter, doing what I love and making a difference.    The more energy I have, the healthier I can. The more focus and attention I can give to what is in front of me (the good, bad and ugly).    The more money I create, the more I can create with it.   This is abundance, and it's the ONLY want to live a happy, healthy life that allows you to GIVE back beyond your wildest dreams.  But not everyone is willing to do the work to get there. Are you?    This is what MIIC Mastery is all about. Women on a mission to make a difference, in their homes and the world.    If you've been looking for a mentor in guiding you through this process, now is the time to apply.  www.momisincontrol.com   xo H  P.S BONUS COACHING ($1500 value): The earlier you apply for MIIC Mastery the better - we start in September which means you will gain access to me one-on-one until then, apply today. www.momisincontrol.com

282: How To Stop Yelling

"I simply do not think that yelling, swearing, threatening or belittling will get you to the place you want to be faster than kindness, understanding, patience and a little willingness to compromise." -Rachel Nichols   The 3 Main Reasons Why You’re Yelling At The Kids (And What You Can Do To Stop)   During this free training I will be talking about:  How to listen & identify what your body is trying to tell you   Why it's so difficult to stop yelling and the unconventional habits you can implement ASAP that will drastically reduce how often you yell (my clients typically see improvements within 2 weeks implementing these tools).   The woo-woo spiritual reason why I think our children trigger us and how this is a sign that good things are happening (if you are up for the challenge).    xo H P.S.

281: MONO Tasking

"People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on.  However, that’s not what it means at all.  It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are." - Steve Jobs  Distraction and being 'busy' have become socially acceptable ways of being and in all honesty I never (yes you heard me right) feel busy.  My life may feel full at times, but when it does, I've trained my brain how to stop and focus on the task at hand.  This has taken years of practice, personal investment and a dedication to release my addiction to feeling busy.    In Episode 281 on the podcast I talk about:  * Why multi-tasking takes longer * How mono-tasking gives me more time and energy to focus on what matters most * The importance of identifying your high leverage actions and why resistance will rear it's ugly head when you attempt to complete these tasks   Are you ready to learn how to implement these strategies in your own life? Applications are now open for the MIIC Mastery Program www.momisincontrol.com  Are you ready to finally feel in control of your life?  Are you done yelling and feeling chronically exhausted?  Do you want to fall asleep feeling content?  Do you want to be able to spend time with your children and BE all there? Not anxious. Not overwhelmed. Just there, present?  Feeling alive while raising a family is possible.  Do you know what you want? Alternatively, maybe all you know is what you don't want? MIIC Mastery will give you the clarity you've been craving. Over the last few years, I've witnessed women from all walks of life transform how they show up. Women are telling me "Heather, you've saved my life."  Moreover, I am going to show up step by step how to get there.  The truth is I haven't saved anyone. All I've done is create community, space and held women accountable for doing the work needed to become whom they were born to be.  If you'd like to learn more information head on over to www.momisincontrol.com  Check out the program details and apply today.  BONUS: the program officially starts in September, the sooner you apply, the more coaching time you have with me to help you prepare for the fall ($1500 value).
