I Heart My Life Show

In this episode of the I Heart My Life Show, I had the pleasure of hosting Asha, a periodontist and dentist by profession, who is currently on a journey of self-discovery and finding her voice. Our conversation revolved around the importance of letting go of societal expectations and following one's heart.

The Journey of Self-Discovery

Asha's journey of self-discovery is a testament to the power of introspection and personal growth. She emphasized the importance of letting go of preconceived notions of what the future should look like, and instead, focusing on the present. She advised listeners to follow their hearts first and then let their brains guide them in the right direction.

Asha is currently in a space of self-discovery and finding her voice, particularly in discussing topics that are often not talked about, especially among women. She highlighted the tendency to define ourselves by our professions and encouraged listeners to explore who they are beyond their careers.

Seeking Help and Healing

Asha's journey wasn't without its challenges. She realized that she needed help and reached out to trusted friends, therapists, and spiritual teachers. She talked about the process of healing her inner child and detaching from societal conditioning and expectations.

One of the major life changes she made was ending a long-term relationship. She emphasized the importance of giving oneself permission to grow and evolve, even when it means making difficult decisions.

Embracing Authenticity and Facing Fear

Asha discussed the fear and uncertainty she faced when making the decision to change her relationship and the impact it had on her life. She emphasized the importance of authenticity and surrendering to the unknown.

She also talked about the fear of judgment and the guilt she felt as a mother, but ultimately realized that her own happiness was important. She shared how letting go of fear opened up new opportunities and brought her closer to people who were aligned with her true self.

The Power of Vulnerability and Self-Love

Asha acknowledged that not everyone understood her choices, including some close friends, but she learned to prioritize self-love and accept that not everyone will be on the same journey. She also highlighted the power of vulnerability and the healing it brings, especially when sharing personal experiences on a public platform.

Breaking Cultural Stigmas

As someone from an Indian background, Asha acknowledged the cultural challenges and stigma surrounding divorce but emphasized that personal growth and happiness should be prioritized. She discussed the challenges of divorce within the Indian community and the shame and stigma associated with it.

Despite her fear of how her parents and the community would react to her decision, she decided to break the silence and share her story through writing a book and speaking publicly about her experiences.

Final Thoughts

In response to my final question, Asha advised listeners to let go of expectations and be present. This conversation with Asia was a powerful reminder of the importance of self-discovery, authenticity, and the courage to follow one's heart. It's a journey that may not be easy, but it's certainly worth it.

In this episode, our host, Emily Williams, sits down with Meghna Dassani, a practicing dentist from Houston, Texas. Meghna's work goes beyond just teeth - she specializes in treating and managing sleep apnea in both adults and children.

In this conversation, Meghna shares her personal journey and the pivotal moment that inspired her to delve into the world of sleep apnea. It all started with the loss of her father-in-law to this condition, which prompted her to seek answers and find a way to prevent her own family from experiencing such a tragic loss. As Meghna dug deeper, she discovered that sleep apnea is far more common than we realize. It can affect not only adults but also children, who often go undiagnosed due to a lack of awareness. She discusses the telltale signs to look out for in children, such as bedwetting, fatigue, and behavior issues. Sleep apnea occurs when a person repeatedly stops breathing for 10 seconds or longer during sleep. This interruption in breathing causes oxygen deprivation and puts strain on the heart. The consequences can be significant, ranging from high blood pressure and diabetes to stroke and even early onset Alzheimer's. Meghna's insights shed light on the interconnectedness of sleep health and overall wellbeing. Meghna also shares the treatment options available, both for adults and children. She explains how her practice has successfully integrated sleep apnea management and presents hope for those seeking relief and improved quality of life. Whether you have personal experience with sleep apnea or are simply curious to learn more about this hidden danger, this episode is a must-listen. So grab your favorite beverage, a notebook, and tune in to hear Meghna and Emily dive deep into the world of sleep apnea. You don't want to miss out on this eye-opening discussion….

In an inspiring episode of Emily Williams’s ‘I Heart My Life Show,’ Blair Jones offers a glimpse into her captivating journey – a unique weave of challenges and victories that captured the hearts of listeners. Blair affirmed her place as a black sheep in her family and life, showing the extraordinary power of going against the norm to discover a path filled with abundance and joy.

The reality of Blair’s entrepreneurial journey wasn’t without resistance. From the skeptical outlook of her mom, an unpredictable journey to financial success, to the struggle for self-acceptance in an increasingly judgmental society, Blair’s journey unmasked the truths often hidden behind successful network marketing entrepreneurs. However, her resilience surpassed all the familial resistance, eventually retiring her mom with the prosperity she garnered from her efforts.

Blair beautifully depicted herself as a trailblazer who takes pride in forging a unique path away from the conventional crowd. She refused to be tamed by societal expectations and instead channeled her energy into manifesting her dreams. For her, success was a combination of a positive mindset, direct action, and being genuine in a pursuit filled with uncertainty and high risks.

Blair’s journey wasn’t an overnight transformation. It took seven years for her to reach her initial income goal. Speaking about this journey, Blair candidly expressed her struggle to balance her success with the fear of losing it all. Yet, through these challenges, she found nourishment in recognizing her worthiness and understanding that achieving her dreams requires an achiever’s mindset.

In the world of network marketing, Blair sees it as a boundless field accessible to all, regardless of education or background. Interestingly, women, who compose 75% of millionaires in network marketing, have a significant role in this industry. Another remarkable fact Blair shared is that 90% of millionaires have some residual income, a unique opportunity offered by network marketing.

She also believes in the transformative power of self-care, dedicating time to biohacking and nurturing the mind, body, and soul. On her path to balance pursuing her dreams and maintaining a grounded life, Blair incorporated points of pause – such as mindfully enjoying a meal or taking a moment to unwind by watching TV. This practice became a crucial part of her daily routine, allowing her the space to disconnect from the outside world and reconnect with herself.

Talking about her relationship with her husband, she highlighted the importance of open conversations and clear boundaries. She found that setting goals together, including weekly love meetings and dedicated family time, helped her and her spouse stay connected and effectively manage their dreams.

Whether combing through the forms of resistance she faced or basking in the overflow of her achieved goals, Blair’s story painted the spectrum of entrepreneurship in true detail. By sharing her obstacles, achievements, beliefs, and practices, she truly encapsulated the essence of an empowered, determined, and fulfilled entrepreneur; redefining success in her own terms.

In conclusion, Blair Jones’s captivating episode on ‘I Heart My Life Show’ reaffirms that personal achievements are not dictated by societal norms or expectations. Instead, they are constructed through self-belief, perseverance, and the courage to create our own uncharted paths. Thank you, Blair, for your inspiring story of harnessing hope and taming fears to create a fulfilling life. You truly embody the power of non-negotiables for success in business and life.

Quotes:

The Art of Friendship: "Keep your mouth shut, Monica. Be quiet until asked and become really good at listening."— Monika Zands

Navigating Relationship Dynamics: "One of the things we got really clear of probably about ten years into our marriage, and we've been married 22 years, but together 30. So about ten years into our marriage, we started saying, hey, I don't want to make an assumption that who you've always been is who you are today. So there are going to be times when I think you'll do this, but I'm going to still ask, and I want you to know that I'm simply asking to honor you."— Monika Zands

"Balancing Family and Business: 'Okay, can we breathe?' Even if it gets a little scary, because we're spending a lot of the focus time on our daughter because the clock is ticking."— Monika Zands

Butterflies and the Beauty of Life: "I said to Jan, what a beautiful reminder and metaphor for life that we every season has its day by day nuances. That one day there were no butterflies, and the very next day there's thousands of butterflies coming out of their cocoons. And what if we could relate to each other? Like, who's the you I'm meeting today? And how do I nurture what we need to have a beautiful reflection, like gratitude at the end of a day?"— Monika Zands

Love Languages and Communication:"We have very different love languages. I'm an Acts of Service love language, and he's a words of affirmation. So what fills him and has him feel reassured is not the same as what fills me."— Monika Zands

The Power of Awareness: "But the awareness knows the need doesn't need to be met to feel whole."— Monika Zands

The Power of Inner Resources: "Everyone was born with their own inner resources to do the work they need to do."— Monika Zands

Deeper Sense of Breathing: "When I listen to these recordings, it stops me because the whole premise of these recordings is the distinction of the wanter and the longing and the more and the not enough. And the observer of all is well, and how cute or how sweet or how tender of that girl who's doing those things. And when I can see both of those sides of me, this beautiful walk between both, actually, it strengthens and softens my nervous system. So I'm not having the natural stress response. I'm actually going into a deeper sense of breathing."— Monika Zands

Ping Pong in Relationships: "And what tends to happen is we were modeled by our parents or modeled by whoever did relationship around us that someone's right and someone's wrong."— Monika Zands

The Power of Personal Transformation: "We are human experiences and expressions and we're a divine being working through this Earth school."— Monika Zands

In this episode, I'm joined by the fantastic Lizzie Langston, a postpartum coach and mom of three (soon to be four!) children.

Lizzie is a passionate advocate for postpartum wellness and has developed her own coaching practice to support moms through their journeys. She brings a holistic and spiritual approach to her work, incorporating various modalities to empower women in their transformation.

After stumbling upon Lizzie's podcast myself (not too long after having my daughter) I knew I wanted to get her on this show to discuss all things postpartum.

As a new mom myself, I'm blown away by what I didn't know to expect even with a midwife, doula, and friends and family in my corner.

Lizzie is such an incredible resource for moms and moms-to-be, and I'm grateful that she's here to be a voice for those of us who experience challenges and ups and downs in the postpartum period (which she believes is for your entire lifetime after having a baby!).

On today's episode, Lizzie shares her personal journey of experiencing postpartum anxiety and depression after the birth of her third baby.

She opens up about feeling alone and unseen, highlighting the importance of checking in on postpartum women and letting them know they are valued, even when society may not recognize their efforts.

Lizzie's story is a powerful reminder that it's okay to ask for help and take action without waiting for instructions.

We also discuss the significance of understanding yourself, facing the shadow self, and embracing self-love for healing and self-acceptance.

Hope you love it!

Quotes

Postpartum Depression: "And so it was actually a sister-in-law that said, I think this is postpartum depression, and I think you need to go see someone."— Lizzie

Postpartum Depression: "My trend was that my anxiety was sort of the beginning. My anxiousness took over, and then it led into depressiveness. I think the anxiety just burns women out."— Lizzie

The Power of Coaching: "So coaching actually my first experience with coaching didn't teach me anything about the nervous system. I picked that up later as I had a sense I just knew postpartum women needed to get into the body level, not just the talk stuff. But I think what I loved about it was that it gave me my power back and it said, hey, your thoughts are contributing to the way you're responding with your kids."— Lizzie

Psychoneuroimmunology: "Your emotional state can actually be manifested through physical symptoms, diseases, discomfort, everything from a throbbing shoulder pain issue to a thyroid disease or cancer or things like that."— Lizzie

Healing the Shadow Self: "The parts of you that you don't like and you're ashamed of...we shame it away so deeply...journey back to your whole self and it's total unconditional self-acceptance...we're so dedicated to the roles and responsibilities and the duties of motherhood...we don't want to deal with or see the parts of ourselves that we don't want to see, that we're ashamed of...your whole self wants to be seen and loved by you, nobody else...the most powerful healing frequency is love from you to yourself...stop pushing away and shaming and noticing how they're doing that in a very subtle way...we talk ourselves out of seeing these things because we are so ashamed of them."— Lizzie

Viral Topic: The Importance of Prioritizing Pleasure
Quote: "How pleasurable? Like on a scale of one to ten, how easy do you find it to rest and relax into a state of pleasure? Like simple pleasure, whether it's drinking a warm cup of coffee in the morning, how much of a priority do you make your pleasure?"— Lizzie

The Power of Self-Compassion: "The number one AHA moment I've had, this is ... It's so transformative."— Lizzie

The Importance of Self-Advocacy and Emotional Regulation: "The first thing is you have to know how to advocate for yourself, to your partner... That's going to take me arranging with my co-parent... require me to be willing to stand up for this part of me that needs alone time... being able to advocate for yourself... the number one gift that we can give to our kids... is just our authentic relationship with ourselves... When you are authentically connected to yourself and you know yourself inside and out and you know your cues and your triggers... then you are so much more real with your kids..."— Lizzie

The Struggle of Motherhood: "I genuinely just thought, like, it was the end all, be all. Like, it was the most expression of being a woman and the most valuable thing I could do... but you get in the trenches of it and you're like, oh, I feel like a little jaded. Like, this isn't what I all thought it would feel like or be like."— Lizzie

Supporting Postpartum Women: "I think the biggest block to people helping postpartum women is they say, what can I do for you? Most women have a hard time telling you what to do. I don't like, now I told my husband, if people ask you what they can do, here's a couple of ideas. But this is my fourth go around, my 1st, 2nd baby. I would have been paralyzed. If somebody asked me what they could do for me, I would have been in my head like, oh, I don't want to be a burden. Like, that was my mojo. I don't want to be a burden. So just do it. Just be like, hey, I scheduled a house cleaner. Here's a gift card. You can use it whenever you need it, or I have three months of hello, fresh for you whenever you want it. Here's the code. It's just like, hey, I'm dropping off dinner tonight. If you don't need it, stick it in the freezer. I just love you and I wanted you to know I'm here. Just like, do it."— Lizzie

In this episode of the IHML Show, Amber Black shares her journey of resilience and manifestation, proving that regardless of the circumstances we are born into, we have the power to create a life we love.

Amber's story is truly remarkable. Growing up, she had a strong support system, but still felt a deep desire to prove herself. Her mother told her at a young age that she was unwanted and unplanned which shaped her reality for years to come. In fact, she didn't speak until the age of four and had to overcome many setbacks and limited thinking to get to where she is today.

And yet, she continued to show up in life believing anything was possible. (And that you should always have your cake and eat it too!) Throughout the episode, she emphasizes the importance of believing in and bringing what we want into our lives.

In this episode, Amber shares tangible practices and ways of thinking that have changed her life.

For example: Writing down a list of desires and manifesting them with ease and joy. Many of us may feel hesitant to write down our desires, fearing disappointment if they don't come true. Amber suggests creating a visual focus, such as a vision board or Pinterest board, to help manifest our dreams.

She encourages us to continue holding faith and believing in our desired outcomes, even if they seem unlikely or crazy in the moment.

One of the key areas Amber focuses on is attracting dream clients. She challenges the negative thoughts and perceptions around sales and entrepreneurship, believing that everyone deserves to work with enthusiastic clients who are excited to invest in our services.

Amber's story is a beautiful reminder that we have the power to create the life we desire, even if we're currently feeling stuck between our job and our dreams.

She encourages us to connect with our "why," our calling and purpose, and take steps towards creating our own dream job.

If you've been feeling hesitant or unsure about starting something big outside your nine-to-five, Amber's powerful insights will definitely inspire you to take that leap of faith.

Remember, manifesting dreams can happen even if we forget about them. So let's embrace this sense of calm and assurance, and trust that by standing in our own truth and authenticity, we will attract our ideal clients, opportunities, and the life we truly desire.

Tune in to this week's episode with Amber Black on the I Heart My Life Show for a dose of inspiration and practical tips to unlock your resilience and manifest your dreams.

Keep dreaming big and taking inspired action!

And I just remember just having this childlike curiosity that I'm sure we'll get to later on, but has proven to be correct even as a toddler, even as a young girl, my desires, my thoughts."— Amber Black

The Power of Resiliency: "But I think that resiliency comes from innately kind of knowing that I wasn't really wanted. And so feeling like I needed to prove myself in every turn of my life, realizing that I won't say I was a mistake, but I was definitely not planned right."— Amber Black

Quotes

Overcoming Obstacles: "Well, I know people are like, Yo, that doesn't sound like all of that happened to one person. However, all of that happened to one person, and that's probably 10% of the things that I had to overcome."— Garrain Jones

Energy Transmutation: "Most people don't realize that they have compartments of energy that's powerful than the fastest train in the world. But it might be in all of your ego and it might be in all of your insecurities and all of your self doubt and all of your gossip, all of your talking about people behind their back."— Garrain Jones

The Power of Apology: "One, mind you, I haven't spoken to her in all these years. One, why'd you do that? Two, what about me made you do that? Three, same thing is happening to my kids, and I don't know what to tell them. And I was like, you mean to tell me people keep the way you make them feel? Oh, my goodness, I have so many people to apologize to."— Garrain Jones

The Power of Forgiveness: "I forgave the two men who murdered my father. And when I was done, this guy kept looking at me and he was like, man, I just want to apologize to you. I said, for what? He said 20 years ago I went to prison for attempted murder. And I just got out last night and I was planning to murder the person who snitched on me tonight. But I saw in you freedom for the first time. And I just want to let you know that I'm a changed man. I've never seen what freedom looked like. And I want to apologize on behalf of the two men who murdered your father. And I instantly got closure that I always wanted as a twelve-year-old."— Garrain Jones

The Power of Personal Development: "The difference is the awareness. I wasn't aware of what I was doing. So maybe I would read a good book. I wasn't aware that what I was reading was causing me to then have the book start reading me. And when a book starts reading you, you start living out its principles."— Garrain Jones

The Power of Self-Reflection: "But because I design a game I actually like playing, I create a life I actually like living."— Garrain Jones

Dreaming Big: "I was 14 years old, and I always knew. I was like, man, I'm going to retire my mom. I'm going to win five Grammys. I'm going to walk with her on a red carpet, and when I receive my reward, I'm going to retire her."— Garrain Jones

The I Heart My Life Show is back to inspire and empower individuals who are looking to make a change and reinvent themselves and their work. In this episode, Emily will dive into her recent experiences, sharing valuable insights from her own hiatus and the impact it had on her life and the lives of those around her.

During her break, Emily took a six-week pause from Instagram and a four-month hiatus from the podcast to realign and reconnect with her purpose. It was a decision based on what felt right and in alignment with her own capacity. Now, she is immensely excited to resume sharing content and discussing her own process over the past few months.

One of the fascinating aspects of Emily's break was the profound conversations it sparked and the incredible bonds that were formed. She realized just how often people hide their true feelings and the power of vulnerability. By sharing her experience, Emily gave others permission to share their stories and feel less alone, leading colleagues and clients to express interest in making similar decisions.

As the founder of I Heart My Life, Emily started her business from home with a mission to help people achieve their goals and create more joy in their lives. The I Heart My Life Show covers various topics, including mindset, relationships, wellness, lifestyle, money, business, and career.

Quotes

"Finding Purpose and Realignment: So I am back after about four months on a hiatus from recording this podcast, and I wanted to share what I did during that time that really helped me realign, essentially launch two new brands and come back to my purpose and what I feel I'm meant to do in this world."

— Emily Williams [00:00:50 → 00:01:09]

The Power of Taking a Hiatus: "When I decided to put the pause in place, I started to do a couple of things that really replaced that time and were in service to me."

— Emily Williams [00:04:38 → 00:04:47]

Overcoming Fears as an Entrepreneur: "And so for me, I knew that my desire was to give myself some space, give myself some time from Instagram and the podcast. And when the fears came know I'm well versed enough in mindset to know that those weren't actually true. And I also know that I have to follow my fears and get to the place where they're no longer scary and then they don't have power over me."

— Emily Williams [00:05:40 → 00:06:03]

Facing Fear: "What would actually happen and what would this look like? And is it actually that scary? And am I going to allow that to hold me back from the thing that I actually want to do?"

— Emily Williams [00:10:24 → 00:10:34]

Overcoming Fear and Finding Strength: "I know one of my colleagues, she had a period of time for a year and a half or two years where she just wasn't selling and she was working on herself, working on her health. She realized she'd gotten so far away from her mission in life and what she was put on this earth to do and she could no longer do it. So she turned things off, she shut things down and really had to regroup and now has come back stronger than ever and has a business that she really loves and is doing work that is fulfilling."

— Emily Williams [00:11:32 → 00:12:01]

The Power of Vulnerability: "And so it just made me realize how often we are actually hiding, how often we are wanting to pretend like everything's okay when it's not, and how much power there is in that vulnerability and actually sharing what's really going on behind the scenes and not feeling like we have to bond over perfection."

— Emily Williams [00:12:19 → 00:12:41]

The Importance of Authenticity: "I do think it's important to share from a scar versus a wound if it's still really fresh and you're still experiencing, maybe wait a little bit. But in this case, I was happy to share and open and I was honest about the fact that there are a lot of question marks and I don't know who I'm going to be and what I'm going to create when I get back here. But this is where we're at and this is the truth. And again, it gave so many people that permission to take their own pause and to reevaluate their life."

— Emily Williams [00:15:21 → 00:15:51]

Reinventing Yourself: "I think so many people started businesses or started down a path, even if it's a career path and you thought it was what you wanted, but now you're realizing it's not. And yet there's a fear of changing things up, there's a fear of reinventing yourself."

— Emily Williams [00:17:18 → 00:17:30]

The Duality of Ambition: "And yet they are starting to realize that even though the goal is to build their business, create wealth, have a big impact in the world, there are also other things that they're ambitious at, which is maybe family life, motherhood, just being healthy, not being so obsessed, and having their entire worth wrapped up in their company."

— Emily Williams [00:23:47 → 00:24:07]

Building Two Companies with Massive Collaborations: "So I was building out those contracts and relationships and getting all of those professional relationships solidified."
