If you listen to this podcast, you probably have listened to a habit book or two. Each one provides you different strategies on how to build habits, BUT most don't tell you how to take action over and over and over again. This episode, I have Alessia Citro on the podcast. She is a certified life coach and serial entrepreneur who unexpectedly decided to leave the corporate world after working for Salesforce and Google. Over the last few years, Alessia became sober and found her way to building better habits over time.  We talk all things habits, sobriety, and more!

*Potential trigger warning* This episode is a special one. Something on my heart recently told me to share my life the last 4-6 years leading up to where I am today. Like many others, I was on autopilot.  I was doing things to numb out the stress, anxiety, and overwhelm I was feeling on a daily basis trying to be the PERFECT and BEST version of myself for others. Or so I thought that was what I was trying to do. Listen in to hear about how I worked through these bad habits and became aware of what I was actually doing. How I went from numbing my emotions, to living with them, and all the in between.  NEW DATE: Event Foundations Masterclass When: May 14th, 11am EST/8am PST. Interested in joining the class?

I have heard so many different ways to think about the season of life I am currently in. Relating to actual weather seasons; winter or spring. But recently, someone sent me a post about the season of Waiting. Waiting is difficult. I don't know about you but I can get impatient not knowing how long I will actually be waiting or stress about what is to come.  In this episode, I share how I am living in the waiting season, planting seeds, waiting for them to start growing. Life has drastically changed for me and continues to. The future is unknown so it is time to start living in the present! NEW DATE: Event Foundations Masterclass When: May 14th, 11am EST/8am PST.

This episode is for you if you have been putting off or not clarifying your goals and dreams for this year. Or maybe you have your goals but we are 4 months in and they feel impossible.  It is not too late to reassess your goals if they are still aligned and maybe even get more specific. But probably most importantly, you need to determine the action steps you have to take to accomplish the goal. Without action steps, it is easy to get lost and not know how to get closer to succeeding. Join me today as I share the steps to creating or assessing your goals, how to take the action, and determine what is holding you back.  If you missed our first Masterclass all about the foundational questions you must answer before putting on your event, join our EVENT COMMUNITY where I will be announcing the next Masterclass, resources, and more!

Does fear, overwhelm, procrastination, and the unknown hold you back from doing the thing? Personally or professionally, many of us experience resistance in different forms. And usually, we let this resistance, the negative thoughts or limiting beliefs, hold us back from going after our dreams. In this episode, I challenge you to look resistance in the face, accept it, and take the first step. If you don't take the first step, there is no change, there is no trial or error, there is no success or failure. "If your not doing the scary, then you are not learning or growing". It's time to fight the resistance and keep learning and growing!

*PARDON THE SOUND QUALITY ON THIS EPISODE* This episode was inspired during my trip to visit my sister in Europe. It was the first time in a long time, I disconnected for longer than 3 days.

Listen in to this episode to hear a little about what I came to realize I have been missing, and for you to start thinking about what in your life you could be missing as well!

As a high achieving woman, and I bet you can relate, the idea of being still for even 10 minutes brings up a lot of fear. What about my to-do list today? What if I get bored or lazy?

One of my new favorite books, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**K by Mark Manson, has reminded me the importance about caring but not about everything. Do you struggle with caring a little too much sometimes? Do you have the awareness to understand your emotions, why you feel them, and what core values are tied to that emotion? I sure didn't until I started understanding my emotions and diving deep into what my core values are both personally and in business. In this episode, I dive into all of this and more as I share my thoughts on Mark Manson's advice pertaining to self awareness and our core values. Take a listen and then start putting these into action. All it takes is a little practice. GIVEAWAY INFORMATION: 1. Follow Us @cat.roten and @imperfectly.impactful 2. Leave us a Review below! 3.
