Want to live a life true to yourself? Get in touch with your personal values
Are you living the life you want? Or are you living the life you feel like you “should” be living? In today’s society, we often feel pressured to do things and be things that don’t align with our personal values. All because this is the acceptable path and a path a successful person takes. But, does that path feel right to you? Do you even know what feels right to you? Well if you’re unhappy with your day-to-day life then there is a good chance that you’re not living your true authentic self. In today’s episode of the Your Life, Your Design podcast we go over how to identify these feelings and steps to take to design the life of your dreams.

Creating Habits and Changes that Finally Stick
What were your new year's resolutions this year? Was it to eat healthier or maybe lose weight? How did those goals go? More often than not when we're creating change, or wanting to create change in our lives we set out to make outrageous goals and habits without taking baby steps to get there. We tell ourselves that this is the year but we don’t bother setting ourselves up for success. We jump in head first, and when it's not going our way - we quit. In this episode of the Your Life Your Design podcast we explore new ways of approaching your habits and changes and creating a strategy that is specific to you, to help you design and live the life of your dreams.

Making Peace with 2021 (and Yourself)
How was your year? Did you achieve everything you planned out in 2021? Or did you give up halfway through because you weren’t seeing the results you wanted as fast as you wanted? 2021 has been quite a year, to say the least. Who would have thought that after 2020 we would have another year full of uncertainty and overall doubt? In this episode of the Your Life, Your Design Podcast we’re talking about how to make peace with all that you have accomplished so far and all that you have planned in the new year. We all take things at different paces and it’s important to understand that just because we didn’t succeed on the first go, doesn’t mean we are a failure and need to give up. We accept that we haven’t done what we wanted to, in the way we wanted, shift our approach and move on!
