Hey y'all, Jaime here! A people-pleaser from basically birth, I wasted so much time living for everyone else. Then in my early 30s, I finally figured out what sets my heart on fire…and I’ve been chasing it ever since! As you may have guessed, my story starts with actor Jason Bateman and an unforgettable trip to SXSW.
Personal development is a never-ending journey, and I'm taking you along for the ride! We'll cover it all – finding your passion, other people's opinions, work-life balance, weight struggles, moving to a new city, dealing with unsupportive family, Jason (clearly), and much more.
In today's episode, we’re talking about mindset.
Whether you realize it or not, your mindset matters. In fact, I’d argue it’s one of, if not, the biggest factor in your overall happiness and success in life.
I'll explain how to determine whether you have a fixed or growth mindset, and what each mean to your personal and professional life. I'll also share simple and easy ideas you can immediately implement in your daily life to get closer to a growth mindset, if you're not already there.
Whether you struggle with negative self-talk, a lack of confidence or an unsupportive circle, I've got tips and tricks for you. Listen and learn more.

Stop should-ing your life away
When faced with a difficult decision, we go straight to asking ourselves and others, "What should I do?" Well, I'm here to say, who cares what you should do, what do you want to do? What would make you the happiest? Let's do that.
We can get so caught up in the shoulds – I should be married by 25, have kids by 30, be making six-figures by 35, and on and on and on – that we end up should-ing ourselves to death. I, for one, spent untold years trying to keep the peace by going with the flow. How'd that go for me, you ask? I ended up regretful and resentful of all the years and opportunities I wasted because I was doing what I thought I should do. So long story short, not well.
But I've since broken free of that habit. Better late than never, right? So now I'm here to share my stories with you and give you tip, tricks and resources so that you can do the same.
Stop should-ing your life away right now!

Perception is reality
How many of you have ever had a entire conversation with someone without realizing you were talking about two different things? Maybe you assumed you knew what the other person was talking about, and turned out to be wrong. Or vice versa.
How does this kind of thing happen? Well, if you've ever heard this quote from playwright George Bernard Shaw, you know – “The single biggest problem with communication is the illusion that it has taken place.”
Stop assuming that your getting your message across. I have tips and tricks for closing the gap between what you say and what the other person hears. Because when it comes down to it, perception is reality. It doesn't matter what you say, what matters is what they hear.

All about goals
New Years Day is around the corner, and everyone is talking about their New Years Resolutions. And yet, how many of us have signed up for a gym membership on January 1, just to fall off the wagon come March? Or how many times have we all said we'd start that diet on the proverbial "Monday"? Or have you set your sights on a promotion at the office, only to recede back into your comfort zone after being passed over for someone else?
I've done all of these things and more. And, you know what? I still believe in the importance of setting goals...even if you never, ever achieve them! Why? Because the process of setting the goal and then working on yourself to reach it can be just as productive and beneficial for you as actually reaching it. And goals aren't forever - you can consciously uncouple from your goal at any time. Just pivot that work you're putting in over to the next goal. As the saying goes: Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
In today's episode of the Chasing Bateman podcast, hear about how I set a goal of a promotion, and then ended up with two promotions! What did I change in my life to get there? And most importantly, what can you do to achieve the same results?
Find out more in the last episode of 2020. Here's to a successful 2021!
