"Motivation" is not what you think... & it's probably the top question we get. So it's time to address the elephant in the room. What is motivation, really? And how do you find it? And then how do you keep it? In this episode we tackle these questions and we give an honest look at what the truth is around this hot topic. As per usual, we have some gut check moments and real talk about how we've developed motivation to keep our eyes on the prize no matter what. ----- If you loved this episode, please leave a 5-star rating and review!

Prepare to be triggered! No, really. Let’s be honest… most of us grew up feeling awkward around the conversation about money. If we’re honest, we hardly learned anything about money growing up. Except the classic: “Money doesn’t grow on trees” “Money is hard to make” “Only spend what you have” “Save, save, save” Our goal is to break down some truths around money… but not only that, the real conversation is around abundance vs. scarcity. It’s time to have the convo… and while it will probably trigger you at first, if you’re open to it, this conversation could free you. In this episode we talk about what scarcity is, what abundance means, how to identify your limiting beliefs, how to create new beliefs, and how to put into action those new beliefs so you can ultimately change your life. Are you ready for it? If you loved this episode, please rate, review and subscribe! Your 5-star reviews help us more than we can say.
