Today's question is how can I ask my boss for a raise? Ashley submitted this question and I think she wanted to know how to confidently walk into her bosses office and have script to ask how to get a raise but I am adding a self development twist to the answer of this question.  Now I am self employed #GIRLBOSS since January of 2013 but prior to that I did work at a corporate job. I started off at the bottom in and in one year I advanced 3 times in one year.  Here are my 3 tips on getting a raise.  1. Work harder on yourself than your job. Personal growth is a must. Whether that is books or podcasts.  2. Look at your job description and analyze it with what you are actually doing with your time at work.  3. Stay away from the gossip. Lets not gossip about other people.  Email girlinchargeradio@gmail.com to chat with me or submit your question.  Instagram @girlinchargeradio or @joellesuess

This message came from a Girl in Charge subscriber. She asked how did I get over my depression and what was it that got me out of depression for good. I am a self proclaimed depression warrior, I am not a therapist or anything like that. I just struggled with depression. Today's episode on depression really talks about thinking back to something that really hurt me as a teenager. I carried guilt, anger, and hurt for a long time and until I full forgave I stayed in my depression roller coaster.  Forgiveness comes from within. And it will also set you free.  Mentioned in this podcast was Tony Robbins Unleash the Power Within. I went to that conference and learned that depression is selfish! That was a hard thing to hear but I needed that reality check.  Submit your question to me by emailing girlinchargeradio@gmail.com or we can just chat. Share with me your tips for depression.

What is intermittent fasting? Remember I am not a doctor and before starting anything you should consult with yours and listen to your own body.  Intermittent Fasting is a eating window. So there is a time frame of eating and in a time frame of not eating.  My favorite Intermittent Fasting experts Dr Sara Solomon, Dr. Jim Stoppani, and Dr Mercola. They have great resources on their YouTube channels and websites.

I know I am not the only one that has felt in a funk! Do you ever just feel off or that something is wrong but you just don't know what? Ya me too!  Here are my 3 tips to get out of that funk.  1. Start taking care of yourself. Are you taking care of yourself mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually? Putting yourself first is not selfish. It is selfless! Take care of you.  2. Change your surroundings. Is it people or thoughts you need to replace.  3. Take action! Are you doing things to achieve your goals or are you stuck at "I know I need to ____" sentences. I know I need to workout. I know I need to eat healthy, I know I need to study. I know I need to... when you have established that schedule it into your day. Action gives confidence and when you are confident you are not in a funk.  Submit your question to girlinchargeradio@gmail.com  

You're engaged! YAY! Now what? Do you have the vision for your dream wedding? Have you been planning your wedding day since you were a little girl? Wedding planning can be such a fun and exciting experience. While I was on my honeymoon I realized that most brides plan their wedding with stress and frustration. I hear horror stories about wedding planning and asked myself "did I do something wrong" I think stress free wedding planning is a choice. You can choose to stress about it. Or choose to focus on what really matters and have fun.  1. Know what is important to you and your fiancé. Once you know that plan your budget according to what is important to you.  2. Designate a "watch dog" someone that will help you be solution orientated and be able to take care of things the day of the wedding so you can truly enjoy getting married.  3. Know there are going to be frustrations and stress but don't let it effect your entire experience.  Plan your dream wedding.
