On today's episode I am exploring emotions and how we categorize them as good or bad and whether or not it's a good idea to do so. Emotions are a challenging, but much needed topic to discuss and many of us have our thoughts on them. We also have our thoughts on labels. I have never been a fan of labels because I feel they put people into boxes, but maybe there are some cases where labels might not be a bad thing. I heard someone talk about labels and emotions recently and I thought I would give my thoughts on what I heard as related to my experience.What was your biggest takeaway from this little episode?  I'd love to know!

On today's minisode (mini episode 😉) we are exploring the mentality of hustle vs. chill.

I do not believe in the word perfect and really feel like trying to achieve "perfect" is the thief of joy. I've gotten caught up in the perfection trap so I wanted to share some of my examples as well as give you some encouragement and thoughts about how I see perfectionism. Today's episode was recorded while I was walking, which I do every morning outside, so it's a bit different. I feel like when I walk is when I think the most clearly and I really do love being outside. 🌟I had this thought of doing a virtual walking club where we can chat, laugh, encourage each other, and spend time together while we do some movement.

Today I am sharing my recap from the #75Hard program which I just completed last week! I hope you enjoy it and consider maybe taking on this or something like it in your life! It will change you in ways you cannot imagine! Anytime you decide to do something that you’ve never done before it can feel kind of daunting. You may ask yourself- will I really be able to finish this thing? What will people say if I don’t? Do I really have it in me to be consistent for 75 days? All of these and many more questions tend to fly through our heads when we consider taking on a challenge, but the important thing is to make a decision and actually do it. Your mindset is what matters and this program will absolutely build your mental toughness! Here is what I learned and took away from actually making the decision to DO IT! Enjoy and  I would love to know your biggest takeaway after you listen! Send me a DM on Instagram @livingjoyfulandwell   @andyfrisella is the  creator of the #75Hard Program if you want to check it out! His podcast is called The REAL AF and the episode that describes the program is episode #14. FYI- he is raw, real, and in your face so be prepared to be schooled! 👊🏻Like all of us, he isn't for everyone, but I like his straight and to the point attitude!

Today we are talking about taking a look at what you are doing right here, right now and noticing if it’s something that will get you closer to or farther from where you want to go in life. I think we tend to forget our path and get mired down in the minutia of the world or the problems surrounding us and we go off in directions that aren’t in our best interest, so I wanted to address this and maybe provide a little insight!If you enjoyed this episode, DM me your biggest takeaway on IG @livingjoyfulandwell If you haven’t already, please consider heading over to Apple podcasts and leaving a review- the more positive reviews, the more eyeballs we will get on this podcast and the more Mom’s lives we can impact.
