In order to stay on track, you must be AWARE of where you are, and where you’re headed at ALL times. -  Know WHO you are. -  Know where you are. -  Know where you are going. 2. SEE THE SIGNS. Signs are simply a way of locating yourself. What SIGNS have you ...

February 06, 2022 06:11 - 11 minutes - 21.7 MB

Perhaps the biggest change needed in your SIGNIFICANT LIFE REDESIGN is YOU. Because it’s really NOT about the place you live as much as YOU and where you’re placed in it.

February 04, 2022 06:11 - 10 minutes - 14.5 MB

Today I'm going to teach you 3 things that must happen to take your NEW belief to a NEW level of an UNBELIEVABLE LIFE. YES, you’re only one belief away… The beginning of BELIEF is BE. How are you being as you’re believing what you’re believing? And as you’re believing what you’re behaving? All behavior comes from belief. Action or inaction comes from a belief you have, whether it’s conscious or unconscious. I believe that you are only ONE BELIEF away from an unbelievable life. What w...

February 03, 2022 06:11 - 12 minutes - 17.6 MB

EPISODE 1555: Is Your Life's Work Working?

February 02, 2022 06:11 - 14 minutes - 20 MB

This is the SECRET to living a life that works. Are you ready? This topic of “life’s work” has been one that I’ve wrestled with at some level throughout my life. Even though I felt as though I knew what my “calling” was from the time I was very young. The journey of my life has taught me so much more than I ever imagined… Our life’s work is not what we do, but who we’re being and becoming while we’re doing what we’re doing. It’s who we are. Your life’s work is who you are! When y...

February 01, 2022 06:11 - 9 minutes - 18.8 MB

Today I share a new perspective on positive thinking, and how to use it for your biggest advantage. It’s NOT what you think… It's not what you think, OR IS IT? Is it negative? Or is it the truth? Is it positive? Or is it the truth? I don’t believe in positive thinking. I positively believe in TRUTH. AND... The fact that if you can’t interpret something in at least 2 different ways, it’s probably not true. R.O.S.I.E. Redefined. Open. Sacred. Inspired. Engaged. So, the ne...

In today's episode, I give you permission to be you, and to stop doing what's NOT you. If it's not you...then what is YOU? Where are you NOT being YOU in your life? Today’s SACRED S.O.L.

January 21, 2022 06:11 - 13 minutes - 26 MB

You are NOT alone, but I bet you feel alone, don’t you? If not always, sometimes. Here’s how to NOT feel alone. Kim McMillen said it so well, “When I loved myself enough I realized I am never alone.” First, you must realize it. Realizing it start with REAL for a reason. It’s time to get real about how you feel, then recognize the truth about those feelings. YES, get REAL about how you feel so you can heal. Then redefine them. This is how I’ve redefined ALONE. The next time yo...

EPISODE 1542: “Self Care" Is Dangerous

January 20, 2022 06:11 - 13 minutes - 25.8 MB

Not all “Self Care" is the same or healthful. Kim McMillen reminds us that “When I loved myself enough I started treating myself to a massage at least once a week.” Although massages are great for caring for yourself, so are manicures and pedicures, eating and exercise. However... This is the subtle, yet SUBSTANTIAL difference… It’s not about “treating yourself TO…” It’s about “treating yourself WITH…” It's about treating yourself WITH C.A.R.E. Care. Attention. Respect. Exce...

January 19, 2022 06:11 - 12 minutes - 23.8 MB

Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I recognized my courage and fear, my naiveté and wisdom, and I make a place for each at my table.” We'll start with a few of my Sacred S.O.L. STEPS… #1: Show up. Show up for yourself and your feelings. Undress and address. This means being willing to expose yourself. To uncover and discover what you’re feeling. HOW? #2: Pay attention to what has heart and meaning. What’s coming from your heart? What meaning or definition are yo...

EPISODE 1540: Need A Good Laugh?

January 18, 2022 06:11 - 9 minutes - 17.5 MB

Do you need to become the great laugher of your life? Today’s been a tough day. I was asked to recall many painful details regarding the car accident that killed both my parents. It wasn’t easy. Remembering painful events is painful. Period. BUT... It reminds me of how incredible laughter can be in times of loss, pain, and sorrow. Laughter is incredible for every occasion. Perhaps that’s why we can laugh so hard that we cry and cry so hard we laugh. Life can be funny that way. ...

EPISODE 1539: How To Be S.O.L. Not SOLO...

January 17, 2022 06:11 - 11 minutes - 21.7 MB

However, if you never get alone, you’ll always feel alone. Kim McMillen shared, “When I loved myself enough I began to feed my hunger for solitude and revel in the inexplicable contentment that is its companion.” What are YOU feeding? Your feelings about being alone? Your findings from your being alone? You can be alone without BEING alone. The subtle difference is how you’re BEING. BREATHE. Are you drowning or sipping on your life? It’s all about discovering a new way of b...

EPISODE 1538: You’re Going The Wrong Direction…

January 16, 2022 06:11 - 10 minutes - 19.3 MB

However, even if you're going the wrong direction, at least you’re going... Kim McMillen said, "When I loved myself enough I saw beyond right and wrong and became neutral. At first I thought this was indifference. Now I see the clarity that comes from neutrality." Get clear about these three things, and avoid a lot of unnecessary pain and suffering... 1. Attention. IT'S got your attention, but you’re going the wrong direction. Yes, it's clear. You're clearly going the wrong way. ...

EPISODE 1537: Stop Saying No!

January 15, 2022 06:11 - 10 minutes - 19.5 MB

Kim McMillen discovered, “When I loved myself enough I learned to say no when I want to and yes when I want to.” The key here is “when I want to.” Define when? Define want? If not you, then who? If not now, then when? Remember, WANT will keep you WANTING. SO… What are your desires, my dear? Know. Grow. Or NO grow. When you stop saying NO to you, you can say YES to your KNOW and GROW. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) ...

EPISODE 1536: Why Being Scared Is So Essential…

January 14, 2022 06:11 - 11 minutes - 22.1 MB

Kim McMillen reminds us, “When I loved myself enough, I learned to stop what I am doing, if even for a moment, and comfort the part of me who is scared.” Comfort yourself in those moments when you feel scared. It builds trust. Period. It builds relationship. It builds love. And this, my dear, is how you begin loving yourself well. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

EPISODE 1535: How To Stop Resisting Your Persistence

January 13, 2022 06:11 - 14 minutes - 27.1 MB

Deal with it? Heal with it? We heal it by dealing with it. AND… We deal with it and heal WITH it. Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough, I saw that what I resisted persisted. Like a small child tugging my skirt. Now I am curious and gentle when resistance comes tugging.” As long as you’re alive on earth, you will persist to exist. How you live (and love) your life will be directly affected by how much you resist your own persistence. If you’re going to know and love yo...

EPISODE 1534: How To Wean Yourself From Distractions

January 12, 2022 06:11 - 11 minutes - 21.7 MB

Kim McMillen discovered, “When I loved myself enough I began to see my purpose and gently wean myself from distractions.” Purpose. This is where it starts and finishes. Your purpose... Is function. Is why. Is inspired. Is the focus. Notice, I didn’t say “is focused. “ When YOU are focused on your purpose, you become focused — on purpose. (This is the continuation of our Enough Is Enough Series — based on the profound little book, When I Loved Myself Enough by Kim McMillen and ...

EPISODE 1533: Write Your Rights And Wrongs

January 11, 2022 06:11 - 12 minutes - 22.6 MB

The only way to tell a new story is to get a new perspective. Yes, you can think of it like this...the number one weapon you have in writing a new story is your PERSPECTIVE. Kim McMillan said, “When I loved myself enough, I started writing about my life and views because I knew this was my right and my responsibility. Here are 3 ways to begin living a new story… - Your past. - Your present. - Your future. Or... The "were," the "was," and the "will be." OR…the I AM. Answer t...

EPISODE 1532: Are You Ready To Truly See YOURSELF?

January 10, 2022 06:11 - 15 minutes - 28.5 MB

Imagine living in a place with no face... What do I mean by this? The one place on your body that you absolutely cannot see without assistance is your face. The other is our back. (We'll talk about this in tomorrow's podcast.) Have you ever thought about this? Years ago this thought hit me, and I thought, "Wow, who/what are my mirrors?" "What makes up my true IDENTITY?" "What am I basing my identity on?" How about YOU? What do YOU see? Who are YOU BEING? Kim McMillen discover...

EPISODE 1531: The Key To Transformation

January 09, 2022 06:11 - 9 minutes - 17.6 MB

Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I started picking up litter on the street.” Everything has a place. And I believe everyone has a place. What he or she does determines the FIT. Where do you fit? You fit where you can do what you do. Do what you can. Do it where you can. Do it how you can. Don’t put it in a can. Otherwise it’s garbage…and that doesn’t fit. Do your part. Play your role. DO YOU.  Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Acti...

EPISODE 1530: Empower Your Empathy

January 08, 2022 06:11 - 11 minutes - 22.1 MB

No matter who you are and what you do, being empathetic is vital.  And guess what? Those who love themselves well have the greatest capacity for this. Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I could allow my heart to burst wide open and take in the pain of the world.” EMPATHY. Yes, I believe that’s what Kim was talking about. So what is EMPATHY? Basically it’s “the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to…” It’s not sympathy. Thanks to our wise dear frie...

January 05, 2022 06:11 - 8 minutes - 15.5 MB

Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I quit answering the telephone when I don’t want to talk.” In order to answer your call you must... Stop answering everyone else's calls. Just because it rings doesn’t mean you have to answer it. And you must... Say what you want to say. Listen to what you're saying. Your life and your lips will leave clues about what your heart believes. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S S...

January 04, 2022 06:11 - 14 minutes - 26.3 MB

Kim McMillan learned, “When I loved myself enough I could tell the truth about my gifts and my limitations.” The GIFT of LIMITS… Let’s redefine limitations as “boundaries.” Then let’s define how we’d like our playground to look and feel. If you desire clarity, then you must tell the TRUTH… Key #1: Tell me your gifts Key #2: Tell me what you do know. Key #3: Tell me what you do want… Then let’s go deeper with DESIRE. The fire of desire will inspire your daily fire. What fi...

EPISODE 1525: This Will Kill Your Joy…

January 03, 2022 06:11 - 10 minutes - 19.4 MB

Marie Kondo (Bestselling Author of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up) recommends we make choices about our belongings based on whether or not it sparks joy. I love it. I agree. And I’ve practiced a very similar p hilosophy as Marie for years. But does YOUR LIFE spark joy? Do YOU spark joy? This is today’s million dollar question…. DO YOU SPARK JOY? You are the common denominator in ALL your experiences here on planet earth. So imagine if you could cut to the JOY as quickly ...

January 02, 2022 06:11 - 11 minutes - 22 MB

Kim McMillen discovered, “When I loved myself enough I began to see that my ego is part of my soul. With this shift in perception it lost its stridency and paranoia, and it could do its job.” Rich Joshi from Power Thoughts Meditation Club wrote this, "The Ego’s role is to protect you, but it takes itself too seriously at times." (Karen England) @RishaJoshi @PowerThoughtsMeditationClub The next time your ego is triggered by fear, take a look at your E.G.O. by evolving and growing… Evolv...

EPISODE 1523: Are You Compromising Your Soul?

January 01, 2022 06:11 - 12 minutes - 23.8 MB

It’s time to uncover and discover… 1. How you may be compromising. 2. How to STOP compromising. Kim McMillen said it well, “When I loved myself enough I began to accept the unacceptable.” Are you accepting or not? Are you acceptable? (Accept-able?) What are you accepting? What’s “unacceptable” for you? Create your list of “acceptable” and “unacceptable.” ACCEPTABLE. NOT EXCEPT-ABLE… Are you accepting of you? We spend too much time “ex-cepting.” This is what keeps us fro...
