Just go for it
We are all on the path towards happiness and success (whether we know that specific goal yet or not) and nothing should deter us from bringing those dreams to fruition. Often times, we are listening to outside opinions, social media, and our own negative self-talk, which tears us down...bringing doubt, and ultimately staying stagnant with our current situation/lives. This episode is one to validate and show as a sign that you CAN accomplish that goal, you CAN take that leap of faith, and you CAN cultivate a life beyond your wildest dreams... it all starts with YOU!! You are in charge of taking control of your destiny, life, and overall happiness. If you want something, you have to JUST GO FOR IT! Thank you all for your support!

I will repost and love to see everyone who is listening @makeithappen.podcast @amandanikhazy Have a blessed week. Whatever the goal, Make it Happen.

Start small to make the world a better place: Lovepacks with Camie Bianco
This episode is so special, near, and dear to my heart. The superstar herself, Camie Bianco, came on to talk all about the local non-profit organization in Oxford, Mississippi 'Lovepacks'. With the goal of combating the fight against childhood hunger in our community, Camie and a group of outstanding people got together to create what the organization is today. After the initial realization of just how many hungry children we have in the Oxford community, the group wondered what could be done to make a difference. Finally, they stopped wondering, gathered volunteers and started acting. What started with 10 packs coming out of their own kitchens has grown to an astounding 160 packs a week. Lovepacks received 501(c)3 non-profit status in 2012, and the service has expanded to the ten schools in the Oxford/Lafayette school district. This episode is so inspirational and will answer some questions on how you can get involved in your community! Helping the next person in line and using your passions to create change is what it's all about!! Thank you Camie for coming onto the podcast and representing Lovepacks with love and grace.

Consistency
Hi everyone, this episode is a follow up to S2E1 so if you haven't had a chance to listen, I would do that first! Consistency is what sets us a part from competition, allows our brain to create habits/get into routines and most importantly... stay reliable to ourselves. We are defined by our HABITS not our HICCUPS. I hope that everyone has an amazing day, and gain some tips and tricks from this episode!! links to sources mentioned in this episode: https://www.healthline.com/health/how-long-does-it-take-to-form-a-habit#psychology-behind-it (https://www.healthline.com/health/how-long-does-it-take-to-form-a-habit#psychology-behind-it) https://bpspsychub.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdfdirect/10.1111/bjhp.12504 (https://bpspsychub.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdfdirect/10.1111/bjhp.12504) Thank you all for your support!

Be your own Competitor: Emma Harrington
On today's episode I had the amazing opportunity to bring on Emma Harrington! She is an 18 year old freshman at the University of Mississippi but you would never know that with the amount of crazy accomplishments she already has under her belt. She has won the Mike Wallace scholarship from the Emmy's, has an award winning podcast, Youtube connoisseur (with almost 1 million views) and most important an OMSP intern so I have the lovely pleasure of calling her my co-worker. I love this episode so much, we had such great banter, with Emma's super insightful point of view on reaching your full potential. I hope you all gain some knowledge from this podcast and take the risks to reach your greatest potential, NEVER wait for someone else for anything in life, especially your goals! As always, Thank you for your support, xo.

You’re your own worst enemy, stop it
This week on Feel Good Friday I wanted to talk about something super important and relevant to everyone.... positive self talk. I know it can be hard to stay positive and feel motivated when things aren’t going great in life, but those are the times that we need optimism the most. It’s easy to be nice/happy when everything is going great, but the real test is analyzing how you talk to yourself when things go wrong. I encourage everyone listening to be your own best friend and hype yourself up, you deserve it!!! This will transcend into so many other facets of your life. Let’s have a great day & as always, thank you so much for tuning in!

This weeks Motivation Monday is with the one and only Will Day. He has such an amazing story of success, and on this podcast he dives into how he found motivation even during uncertain times and always chose to bet on himself. He went from working at a movie theater, not knowing what he was doing with his life, to now winning an Emmy and being one of the best video editors in sports productions making the most epic hype videos for Ole Miss Football. I’m proud to say he is one of my great friends, and I hope y’all find inspiration from his story!! The link below is to Will’s most recent video, check it out! https://youtu.be/YjFWHIQT4EQ
