155 - Shifting Goal Posts

Episode 54 - Smart Goals are Stupid

We all have them - Goals! However, sometimes people can get caught up in a hustle culture trying to achieve their goals. Which in the end, leads to unhappiness.

Today we are talking about:

What happens once you achieve your goals? What is arrival fallacy?What is wrong with S.M.A.R.T. goals?

One of the most important things that I want you to take away from today's episode is, don't tie your self worth to your goals. Happiness and self worthiness are not on the other side of goal achievement, so stop the hustle culture and achieve goals in a healthy manner.

154 - Slow Parenting Series: Adult Years and Estrangement

Today we are talking about the last phase in our Slow Parenting Series, the adult years and estrangement.

Estrangement happens later in life when a family member cuts off another family member. This could be an adult child deciding to distant themselves from a parent or relative. Many times it is because the adult child is attempting to protect themselves.

So... how do you keep your children from becoming estranged from you?

Clinical psychologist Lindsay C. Gibson wrote the book "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents" where she talks about the four types of difficult parents. I am sharing with you more detail on these parenting types and how they can lead to estrangement in the adult childhood years.

The emotional parentThe driven parentThe passive parentThe rejecting parent

There are many ways to prevent them from becoming estranged, one of the most simple is having good communication. Say your sorry, show humility, and really work on yourself!

Learn more about the four types of parents from Lindsay C. Gibson in her book, Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents.

152 - Understanding Capacity

The definition of disappointment is when your expectations don't meet the reality and this happens a lot of the time. Many times it happens when we have reached our capacity limit.

Day to day your capacity can change, depending on many variables that you can't control.

You are not a computer or a cell phone -- you're a human and "recharging" your battery isn't always super simple.

Within this episode we talk about what you can do to recharge yourself and how to protect your boundaries from others who may be draining.

I also talk about a "Bucket Filling" book that my children read in school -- and one that is a great metaphor for life.

At the end of the day, you can really only rely on and control yourself.

So go slow and Simply. Look. Only. Within.

146 - Slow Parenting Series: Teaching Emotional Regulation to Children

This this episode of our Slow Parenting Series we are talking about emotional regulation and how we can teach this to our children.

To be able to teach emotional regulation to your kids you need to be able to self regulate your own emotions. It is not healthy for children to be in an environment that their caretakers lash out in ways that they can't expect. So you need to take a minute a look within! Where you are is where you are, where you are is not where you want to be and where you want to go. Slow living is about taking steps to get to where you want to go.

How do you teach emotional regulation to your kids if your not emotionally regulated yourself?

How to implement in your own family?

Let's talk about how you can regulate your emotions so that you can be the best version of yourself to teach your own children.

145 - Slow Parenting Series: School Age Readiness

As we continue through the Slow Parenting Series, let's take a pause and go back to the basics. The purpose of slow parenting is to slow down and thoughtfully and purposefully plan what is next. Today we are talking about school age readiness! Here are some key points that I want you to take away from this episode:

You can go into things with a plan but also be prepared for those plans to changeSometimes what is best is to unplug from researching and just be presentKeep the end in sight, you are not raising children but you are raising adults

I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and child psychology and have spent my entire adult life working with children and families.

In this episode I share some ideas on how to best prepare your child for the academic, social, emotional, and physical aspects of full day school.

For more information on school age readiness, you may enjoy reading some ideas I have on "afterschool homeschooling," here.

My favorite acronym for SLOW is Simply Look Only Within and I use this in everything I do. In fact, it goes right along with my daily journaling guide that I am sharing with you today! In the journal, I talk about something called the Peace Pyramid which is comprised of 6 parts.

Time ManagementHealthFinancesOrganizationRelationshipsPeace

When you are surrounded by clutter it affects how you feel on a daily basis. However, organization can give you instant relief and rescue from the overwhelm. Creating a daily schedule can also help you achieve your to do list in a more simpler way. These are all topics we are talking about in today's episode!

Just remember, move forward with intention.

Did you know that our brains are not wired for clutter? My friend, Amber Taggard, is here to share her entrepreneurial journey with us and how she has built a business dedicated to productivity!

Amber is the owner and founder of The Organizer Chicks. She is a professional organizer, time management coach, and professional speaker who has contributed to Forbes.

Growing up with entrepreneurial parents, Amber always knew that there were more options for her than what was in the college brochure. Still, she grew up being told that college is the way by society. Unsure of what she wanted to do, she got a degree in psychology. Throughout the beginning of her career, she realized that productivity is her specialty. Which was the lightbulb to start her company, The Organizer Chicks.

We are diving into topics like:

How she built her company from the ground upOur bodies are physically wired to be affected by clutterHow does she schedule her day as a business owner

I am so excited to start this new series with you! We are going to be diving into what it means to be a Slow Parent and how you can parent in a thoughtful way.

135 - Unconditional Love -- Love Notes From Mom

Let's talk about love!

There are all different kinds of love. But one of the most important ones is self love. In today's episode I am talking about how you need to love yourself unconditionally.

Something that I do is create love notes for myself. It's a great way to give yourself positive affirmations. For you, I have created Love Notes with an emphasis on YOU! If you would like your own Love Notes - you can find them HERE!

Our upbringing and our relationships with our parents can leave us feeling unfulfilled. Your emotional needs may not have been met to the fullest.

If you feel that you need to work on your inner child, here are some books that I recommend:

Lindsay Gibson's "The Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents"

Jonice Webb "Running on Empty"

133 - Diet Culture

Today's episode came to me in the middle of the night (yes literally!) and I had to share it with you. I want to talk about diet culture and some of the pressures that you can have from society around diets.

The number one thing I want you to take away from this episode is the need for self love! The love you have for yourself needs to be complete and total unconditional love. Even though the scale might not be the number you want or your favorite pair of pants don't fit like they use to, the most important thing to remember is to love yourself unconditionally.

In my coaching, I talk about health at every size with my clients. Because health is not just the number on the scale, it is also how you feel inside. Are you able to take your dog on a walk? Are you able to play with your kids or grandkids? Health is about so much more than the physical appearance.

When it comes to food, I don't cancel anything out. I believe in balance and lifiving life! However, I do have an acronym for "DIET" that I use every day - Do I Eat This? I ask myself how will it make me feel? This is something that has helped me in my personal journey!

Do you want more episodes to review for more self love? Check these out:

131 - What is PMDD -- Sandi's Story

Today's episode is so special to me and marks an important start to April which is also PMD Awareness Month! My guest today is Sandi MacDonald and she is the co-founder of IAPMD which is the International Association for Premenstrual Disorders.

She started experiencing different symptoms and behaviors early in her life, as early as high school. Through many years of struggling emotionally and physically, she was always asking what was happening to her. She saw doctors, therapists, and tried different medications, but nothing was a cure.

It was not until she became a mother that she finally started to find answers. Sandi discovered that she had PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder). PMDD is something that is not widely talked about but Sandi has decided to bring it to the surface!

We are answering your questions:

What are the classic symptoms to look for in PMDD?Is there a link between PMDD and a hormone imbalance?Does PMDD mean that perimenopause and menopause will be more difficult to go through?Does alcohol increase symptoms?

If you want more information visit Sandi's website- it is a wonderful resource! https://iapmd.org/

128 - Financial Literacy

Today we are talking about money! But probably not in the way you are thinking. We are talking all about financial literacy. I am sharing my life's story and how I became financially literate.

What is financial literacy? It is the ability to understand and use financial skills to make informed and effective decisions about money.

I grew up in a very frugal home. My parents and grandparents taught me so many life lessons around this. However, early in my marriage my husband and I started playing around with credit cards and quickly found ourselves in debt.

It was not until after the birth of our first child that we realized that this was not the best life choice. So, we stopped and started educating ourselves in our finances. We started reading book and watching shows to learn anything we could on how to be smart in our spending. And I am sharing it all with you today!

If you want more financial information - go back to these previous episodes and figure out what your FIRE number is!

127 - Getting into Yoga

Today we are talking about one of my favorite things to do for my own physical and mental health... YOGA! It has taken me many years to embrace yoga but has truly transformed both my mind and body.

I took my first yoga class when I was only 18 years old. A friend and I decided to try hot yoga and we soon realized that it was not for the faint of heart. Needless to say we did not make it through the entire class. But this started my wellness journey.

I always looked at exercise as a way to keep my body looking a certain way. Through my 20-30s exercise was just something that I did, it was not a mind and body connection. I tried light weight training which led to high interval training. But ultimately I felt that disconnect between my mind and body.

Since then I have rediscovered yoga and it has been a fantastic way to stay present and healthy. One of my favorite online yoga resources is Yoga with Adriene. She has an amazing YouTube channel full of great yoga videos. Follow along with her below!

Yoga with Adriene

If you practice yoga or decide to try it for the first time let me know! I love hearing your stories!

This topic has been weighing on my mind for some time now... Everybody Has SOMETHING!!

You're probably thinking, what does that mean? We all have a past or something that we would like to change about ourselves. But... whatever your "thing" is, it does not justify your behavior.

When you are an adult you get to decide what the next steps are! You can propel yourself onto the next thing. If you have a difficult past, reach out and get some help! Learn how to move past it and seize the day.

Everybody has something, you are not alone!

123 - Zero Sum Thinking

Today we are talking about Zero Sum Thinking and the troubles I see with this theory. The basis to this way of thinking is that is someone is doing better than you, they are winning and you are losing. That there can only be one winner in life.

I have a really hard time with this, I don't feel that there should be one winner and one loser in life. I believe that everyone can win in anyway that servers them in life. I encourage you to put your blinders on and worry about your own game of life!

121 - Getting Calm Without Meds - Adi's Story

I can't be the only one who struggles with stress and anxiety, right? There are many techniques that help to control some of it, but what happens when it builds up and leads to something bigger? Do you ever find yourself in the middle of a panic attack with no way to calm yourself?

Today we are chatting with the woman behind CalmiGo! Adi Wallach is an inventor, who through her own struggles created a drug-free way to deal with anxiety. Adi started experiencing panic attacks and tried different techniques to calm them; including yoga, therapy, relaxation techniques, and diet changes. While she benefited from all of them, she found that nothing helped her while she was having a panic attack.

Adi did not want to rely on medications and their side effects, so she set out to create a product that could help! Starting with research, she discovered what methods helped during a panic attack. She used these to create CalmiGo, which is available to adults and children 6 years and up. Parents are excited for a drug-free solution to help children with their stress and anxiety!

What methods are found in CamiGo?

By using a decluttering and minimalism approach, she helps moms live a more mindful and intentional life. Emily is a boy mom, entrepreneur, and podcast host who loves talking to other moms about living abundantly with less.

We are diving into topics such as:

What is your capacity to manage activities?Do I need to become a minimalist to live a slow life?What things are sparking joy in my house?What is a capsule wardrobe?What is swedish death cleaning?

Emily is a firm believer that our homes need to be a place that feels safe and happy; a place to create memories! Is the stuff around you helping or hindering that? When you start to acquire less you start to desire less. You can reprogram and be happier with a lower level of enough.

119 - Your American Dream while Parenting -- Michelle's Story

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 118: Your American Dream while Parenting -- Michelle's Story

Michelle Grosser is the host of the Calm Mom podcast. She decided to give up her law practice after becoming a mother and has never been happier.

Michelle was an attorney running a busy law firm by day, law school professor by night, all while trying to parent her kids, pour into her marriage, and keep up with her home - and what she found is that she was exhausted, overwhelmed, and on the fast track to burnout.

In this episode we talk about how and why Michelle made this choice and give tips to help those ward off burnout and depression.

You can find Michelle at https://michellegrosser.com/about

and on instagram, here: https://www.instagram.com/michellegrosser.coach/

Overview

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

I understand how you’re feeling when you are rushing around trying to do “all the things,” always playing catch up and finding time to get things done.

I know because I’m a mom too.

It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.

Stephanie's Story

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

I am here to support you.

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 84 - Mindset - Action - Consistency

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

I’ve got an exercise for you to do today while you listen to the current podcast episode.

In the newest Slow Living podcast episode I share how I just popped off the phone with a former coaching client before recording.

She seemed floundery.

And I wanted to remind her how AWESOME she is and how she had SO MANY TOOLS in her arsenal — she just needed to go back, pick one, and start back up again.

Learn more about one-on-one coaching at stephanieodea.com/coaching

As I explained to her — and then again in the podcast episode for all of you —

You can’t “action” your way out of a mindset or a consistency problem.

But many (many!!!!) times we want to. It’s easier to find a new SOMETHING then it is to stay consistent with the current path because our brains want something shiny and glittery.

Listen in as I share really good solid tips & trick you can do TODAY to start sticking to your master plan on an ongoing basis.

the only way to meet your personal & professional goals is to keep working, each and every day, one teeny tiny baby step at a time.

These ‘success secrets’ have been percolating in my brain for the past 20 years or so —

I’ve read an awful lot of Self-Help and Personal Development books (hundreds!!) and always felt a bit bummed — they never felt like they were speaking *to me* — they were either for women who were really interested in all things homemaking and couponing and entertaining or they seemed geared towards business men.

and while I *do* have aspects of myself that likes things clean and tidy — I am not a Martha Stewart-type. I just don’t seem to care all that much! 😉

and while I *do* have my own business, I’m not all that business-y!

So I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea on Instagram or Facebook or record a voicemail question.

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 112: Living Life off of Social Media with Sandy Cooper

Today is a super fun episode because I have welcomed my friend, Sandy Cooper, back to the podcast.

I interviewed Sandy in episode 34 -- in that episode we were promoting her, Mom You're Amazing! book.

This would be a great holiday gift for all the moms on your list.

Today we are talking about social media.

Sandy has taken a step away and she gives valuable advice and action steps if you have been interested in taking a step away from your online life.

Sandy shares how she was an early adopter to social media and did feel as if she had markers of having an addiction to social media.

She shares what the warning signs are, how to talk about social media with your teens, and what to do if you think you have a problem limiting your social media use.

Sandy and I are friends.

I adore her.

I think you'll really love this podcast interview, and I encourage you to find Sandy on her own two podcasts:

111 - Something from Nothing: Erin's Story

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 110: Something from Nothing with Erin Chase

Today is a fun episode ---

I sit down with Erin Chase, from the $5 Dinner Mom and My FreezEasy websites.

Erin and I have been friends for over 15 years, and in this episode she shares how she turned her simple idea into an online empire.

And she did it all (in the beginning) with absolutely no-money down.

The past few episodes have been talking about The American Dream --

and whether or not it's dead or still alive and kicking.

Things have definitely changed --- no one is going to argue that inflation isn't happening or the economy hasn't shifted.

Remember, step 5 of living a Slow Life is to tweak and fine-tune ---

but I don't want you to ever give up on your dreams.

Listen as Erin and I talk about the beginning of getting our websites off of the ground, working with our literary agent (she and I had the same one for a little bit) and how she, ALSO, emailed the Rachael Ray show and ended up on it.

Overview

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

I understand how you’re feeling when you are rushing around trying to do “all the things,” always playing catch up and finding time to get things done.

I know because I’m a mom too.

It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

I am here to support you.

110 - My Publishing Stories

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

episode 109 Steph's Publishing Stories

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

In this episode I share my publishing stories.

Each book I've written has a slightly different story -- but the fact is that it wasn't something that just "happened" ---

I've had the idea that I was a writer who wanted to write books since childhood.

When I was in my very early twenties I began querying literary agents and it took close to 5 years of "NOs" before I got my first YES.

And then I got fired from that publisher.

Listen in as I share the formula and path that I took to find my first literary agent, how I kept going even when it seemed like it wouldn't ever work and how even though I THINK I'm pretty smart, I still fell for a scam.

I also share the exact numbers I've gotten for advances, because I know a few of you were wondering.

Overview

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

I understand how you’re feeling when you are rushing around trying to do “all the things,” always playing catch up and finding time to get things done.

I know because I’m a mom too.

It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.

Is the American Dream dead?

Depending on your age and stage in life, you may feel really strongly one way or another about this topic.

And that’s okay.

Take a listen and see how you can apply YOUR own thoughts and ideas and ideals to the elusive American Dream.

I truly believe we all have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

But the game has changed.

The rules have changed.

What worked for your parents and grandparents won’t necessarily work any more —

and you are correct, in that it is NOT FAIR.

BUT. Hear me out and see how you can still play to win.

What’s manifestation? What’s it NOT? And how can you actually use these techniques to make a real difference in your daily life? ?

I know you’ve heard your fair share of self-help jargon. I get it.

But I promise this isn’t your typical, overhyped monologue about wishful thinking. It’s a down-to-earth, this is real life conversation about how to apply manifestation techniques effectively.

Together, let’s navigate through the maze of manifestation together and come out the other side with actionable insights that can truly make a difference.

Remember, it’s not magic; it’s mindfulness.

Stay curious, stay grounded, and keep living at your own pace. I’m here to support your journey!

episode 105: Before and After Coaching With Beth

Last week we talked about creating your “3 Year Plan” when it comes to changing your life.

Beth has done just that.

I am so proud of her.

Three years ago — during the depths of the pandemic — Beth reached out to me for some coaching.

We only worked with each other for 4 weeks — but Beth took the work SERIOUSLY and completely changed the trajectory of her life in all areas of the Peace Pyramid.

Listen as she explains, in her own words, the work she did and how she did it.

If you’ve ever wondered what it might be like to be coached of have someone on your side who is 100% cheering for you —

take a listen.

We really are real people and in this recording Beth shares what it was like to work with me and how she took the assignments seriously and did the work.

It was sometimes not fun — and we talk about stirring up “gunk” in order to move forward —

but I’m certain that by listening to the sparkle in her voice you will be motivated to start stirring up some of your own “gunk.”

105 - 3 Year Plan

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

episode 104 Your Three Year Plan

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

In this episode I walk you through the exact steps I use with my one-on-one coaching clients to map out their 3 Year Plan.

The reason we do a 3 Year Plan is because when you are trying to completely transform your life —

1 year isn’t enough.

Many people make 5 Year Plans — and that is fantastic when you are young and you know that you’ll graduate from this or that in this time frame or you’ll do a great big huge life event like getting married or having a baby.

But when you’re a grown-up for a while — 5 years kind of gets blurry.

And it feels “far away” so you have “time” to do the things — so you kind of shove them aside.

104 - And Land

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

episode 101 "And Land"

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

If you’ll allow me, I’d like to coach you a teeny bit today on your mindset — and how to very easily switch to a somewhat closed mindset to a Growth Mindset.

I’m going to ask you how often you stay “stuck” in “Either/Or Land”

instead of being in

“And Land.”

I wrote about this a few years ago — you can read the original article, here, if you’d like.

And today on the podcast I expand a bit after really thinking how remarkable and admirable Angela was last week with her living-and-thriving-with-MS story.

Ask yourself —

where are you holding yourself back?

are you waiting for something to HAPPEN before you start taking forward action steps?

Are you waiting for the New Year?Are you waiting for the kids to be out of the house?Retirement?

This is it. There aren’t any do-overs and while I love to say that if we’re lucky, life is long —

you really won’t get another today. That’s just a fact.

This doesn’t mean that you need to cram everything you want to do into TODAY but it does mean that you need to continuously take baby steps forward.

If you need help, reach out to me. This is what I do, and I’m really good at it.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

on Instagram or Facebook or record a voicemail question.

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

I have the extreme pleasure of introducing you to my friend, Angela.

I went to highschool with Angela, and we have children the same ages.

When she was in college and newly-engaged, Angela was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.

While this news was quite understandably shocking and upsetting to hear — she didn’t allow it to fully define her.

It’s just a part of who she is.

Listen in as Angela shares how she processed her diagnosis and decided on purpose to not let it hold her back from doing what she wanted to in life.

Angela’s story is remarkable and admirable and I am so lucky to have her as a friend —

In this episode she also shares how you can help support her and her mission to help others who are diagnosed with MS and help find a cure.

I know we are a very generous bunch.

Listen to her story and if are inclined to do so, you may donate to her fundraising page.

The first step when you get started on your Slow Living journey is to declutter all that isn’t working for you.

Sometimes, though, it’s not all that easy because the things we are faced with decluttering need to be done so in a thoughtful and caring way — not just tossed.

Stephanie's Story

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

I am here to support you.

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 100 - Life Coaching

Overview

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

In this episode I break down what coaching is and isn’t and who might benefit from working with a coach.

As many of you know, I first started my ayearofslowcooking.com website as a New Year’s Resolution.

I like goals.

I like knowing where I’m going and the steps I need to take to get there.

I started my website because I wanted to find a legitimate way to make money from home so I could be a stay-at-home mom.

I loved the lifestyle that I was able to create for myself. I wrote in the early mornings when my children were still asleep and had plenty of time during the day to volunteer in their classrooms and visit with my grandparents.

98 - Faking It is Bad Advice

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 97 - Faking It

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

This week’s episode is Part 2 of a 2-part series on Ignoring Bad Advice.

I didn’t know when I recorded episode 96 that I’d get another example of “bad advice” the very next day on a coaching call —

but I did — and I wanted you all to have the same info that I gave my client.

The same way “feel the fear and do it anyway” is terrible advice because asks that you ignore your instincts and intuitions —

“fake it ’till you make it” is equally (if not more so!) bad advice because you may put others (inadvertently, perhaps) at risk.

What do I mean? Okay — so, if you are new at a job — you are new. You are not experienced yet, nor are you an expert.

And that is alright! But don’t pretend to be something you’re not —

that will always backfire because your brain and body aren’t connected and you will know that you are lying.

and lying feels bad.

97 - Feeling the Fear is Bad Advice

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 96 - Feeling the Fear

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

In this episode I break down the notion that when you are in the midst of an uncomfortable situation or life event you should

“feel the fear and do it anyway.”

Nope.

When you do that, you start to dismiss your intuition and internal dialogue.

And that’s not going to serve you in the long run.

Listen in as I explain how to move from the feeling of fear to ANOTHER feeling —

and then how to take action in a way that feels good in your brain & body.

Life isn’t fun sometimes.

Sometimes you have to do uncomfortable things.

This is how to do those things in a way that is empowering to you and how by doing so you’ll inch towards your personal and professional goals.

Episode 92 - Self-Sabotage

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Today I want to discuss self-sabotage —

what it is, and whether or not you think on some level you may be holding yourself back from moving forward with your personal and professional goals.

Self-sabotage sometimes looks like this —

you have an idea. A GREAT idea. So you start making plans to put this idea into motion.

You tell yourself “this is it. No matter what, I am going to do this thing and not give up and this is going to change my life.”

But then real life happens.

and obstacles come up that get in the way of what you planned to do, in the way you planned to do it.

So you lose momentum.

and then you give up.

And then, if you are a like a lot of people, you begin to beat yourself up in your head and this causes you to no longer want to go for GREAT ideas.

It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.

Stephanie's Story

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

I am here to support you.

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 91 - Time Blocking

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

In this newest episode I talk about Time Blocking and how I’ve always sort of followed a 5 to 9 schedule instead of a 9 to 5.

It works for me, and for many of the women I’ve worked with throughout the years.

that said, the only system that will work is one that you have adapted to YOU and YOUR life situation and phase.

You can download a time blocking worksheet along with the daily journaling worksheet at stephanieodea.com/daily

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 90 - Adrenal Fatigue

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

I’ve had personal experience with symptoms of Adrenal Fatigue and many of the women I’ve worked with have, too.

it stinks.

According to a super quick google search, the symptoms are:

— fatigue

— poor stress response & mood regulation

— memory issues or “brain fog”

— cravings for sweet foods and need for sugar

— insomnia

— frequent urination

— belly fat

— decreased libido

These also are pretty much ALL of the symptoms of a hormonal imbalance such as what happens during perimenopause.

Because of this, many medical professionals are hesitant to call adrenal fatigue a “real” issue.

SO.

Since I am most certainly NOT a medical professional please listen to this podcast with an open mind, do your own research, and do not take any of this as a substitute for reaching out to your own doctor.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

Episode 89 - If It Looks Like a Cult

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

I’m not sure about you — but I try to impart “life lessons” on the kids each time they leave the house —

I say things like:

drink a lot of water

wear sunscreen

take a sweater

don’t do drugs

stay away from creepy people

and…

don’t join a cult!

In this newest episode of the Slow Living Podcast I share how I had an early fascination with cults starting with the Waco, Texas compound of Branch Davidians led by David Koresh.

I remember watching Live TV (remember live tv??) — and seeing the federal agents surround the compound and then the fire set intentionally by the people inside and just felt flabbergasted —

how could such a thing happen?

how could people choose on purpose to follow a leader to their demise?

Today’s podcast episode is about how to reprogram your brain.

It’s kind of a neat topic, and one I’ve explored for over 25 years or so now.

Listen as I share all of the tools I’ve got sharpened, and ready to use in my toolbox to help shift the thoughts and internal brain chatter that crops up from time to time that doesn’t help me move forward.

Slow Living isn’t about not doing anything.

I want you to move towards your longterm personal and professional goals — it’s no fun to feel like you’re stuck on a hamster wheel.

But I want you to get there in a steady, methodical, and sustainable way.

If you have any questions, let me know — I’m happy to help.

Episode 87 - Control - Worthiness

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

I still, to this day, struggle with feelings of unworthiness.

I still, to this day, feel like I haven’t done enough, my ideas aren’t fresh enough, and that my clothes aren’t correct for whatever the situation at hand may be.

Sometimes.

and it’s getting less and less often as the years go on.

If you feel that this is something you need to poke at within yourself, I encourage you to do so.

The only way to get to the other side is to go through the uncomfortableness — even if it feels like an episode of Dora the Explorer and you have to crawl through the mucky swamp and climb the tallest mountain and tiptoe through the field of itchy thorns.

Work / Life balance.

Because working all the time isn’t fun.

and laying around doing nothing gets old and boring pretty darn quick.

there needs to be some sort of balance. When I was younger I thought that work/life balance meant that I needed to do a bit of EVERY BITTY THING each and every day, no matter what.

Nope.

That’s a recipe for burnout.

instead, I teach you to listen to your body and honor her — and do the things that feed and nurture your soul.

While STILL crossing those pesty To-Dos off your list.

Episode 85 - Mommy Blogging

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Today’s podcast episode wasn’t planned.

I didn’t think I was going to record the morning that I did — but felt compelled to do so.

I got up early in the morning to do my thing, but read a headline that a blogger I once knew and followed a million years ago (15 years ago, but who’s counting…)

had died.

and it shook me.

So I began recording.

Listen in as I share my thoughts, process my feelings in real-time, and share my key take-aways on the way writing online has shifted and morphed throughout the years and why it’s still something that I do, and am proud of.

Heather Armstrong, the blogger I’m discussing, took her own life.

I do not go into detail, but if you can already tell that this isn’t something you want to know anything about —

don’t listen.

Within this episode I write about how I got started blogging, how deciding on purpose to start a website and stick to it (with my rudimentary business plan!) changed the trajectory of my life forever and how proud I am of the boundaries I put in place from the very beginning.

I read an excerpt from The Mommy Blogger Next Door: AKA How I Became the CrockPot Lady and also share a few other episodes that may be of interest.

episode 16: matching your identity with integrity

episode 33: dealing with childhood trauma

episode 34: interview with Sandy Cooper

I’ve got an exercise for you to do today while you listen to the current podcast episode.

In the newest Slow Living podcast episode I share how I just popped off the phone with a former coaching client before recording.

She seemed floundery.

And I wanted to remind her how AWESOME she is and how she had SO MANY TOOLS in her arsenal — she just needed to go back, pick one, and start back up again.

Learn more about one-on-one coaching at stephanieodea.com/coaching

As I explained to her — and then again in the podcast episode for all of you —

You can’t “action” your way out of a mindset or a consistency problem.

But many (many!!!!) times we want to. It’s easier to find a new SOMETHING then it is to stay consistent with the current path because our brains want something shiny and glittery.

Listen in as I share really good solid tips & trick you can do TODAY to start sticking to your master plan on an ongoing basis.

the only way to meet your personal & professional goals is to keep working, each and every day, one teeny tiny baby step at a time.

Episode 83 - Decision Fatigue

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

If you are tired, you are not alone.

Studies have proven that on average, the adult female makes roughly 35,000 micro-decisions a day.

When you throw in spouses, children, pets, and being “in charge” —

that number multiplies.

Decision Fatigue is a real thing.

Stephanie's Story

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

I am here to support you.

83 - How to Meditate

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 82 - How to Meditate

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Today we are going to talk about meditating and how in order to be highly productive, you need to learn how to slow your brain down and the best way to do so is to sit and meditate.

I know.

I may have lost you just now —

YES. The secret sauce to being “productive” is meditation.

who would’ve thought??

Listen in as I explain and walk you through my * own * meditation and yoga process — but the best way to meditate is the way that feels best FOR YOU.

I wanted to record this because I think sometimes people have a certain image in mind when they think of meditating and that it needs to look a certain way.

It does not.

it is exactly what works and feels the best for you —

–> that said, I have some tips & tricks up my (robe!) sleeve and want to make sure you know how to do this and these exercises whenever and wherever.

Episode 81 - Remember the WoMom

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Today’s podcast episode is about the “WoMom” —

which is the woman behind the mom.

WHO ARE YOU deep down inside?

What makes you tick, what lights you up, and what keeps you excited and motivated?

do you know?

If you don’t remember, you are not alone.

Becoming the parent to a teeny tiny baby human is all-encompassing and completely changes who you are.

Forever.

But it’s not your whole entire entity.

You still need to do things that are JUST FOR YOU.

because if you don’t, you will crack.

it’s inevitable.

So for today — do something for yourself, and yourself only.

Coaching can be very helpful when it comes to doing something for you and you only. You can learn more at stephanieodea.com/coachingor consider enrolling in the Peace Course at stephanieodea.com/peace

Episode 80 - Don't Reinvent the Wheel

Let’s talk about making things more complicated than they need to be.

Do you do that?

Probably. Most of us do.

Today, I’m urging you to take a listen to the newest episode of the Slow Living podcast —

because life doesn’t have to be as hard as you’re making it out to be.

Maybe you over-complicate things because you want to be better than your coworker.

or more sophisticated than your neighbor.

or maybe your personal situation and health issue is keeping you stuck and you are certain no one has ever moved through this obstacle before.

Listen in as I share how to look for people who have been there, done that —

Today’s podcast episode wraps up our multiple-part series of interviews with REAL PEOPLE sharing their own Slow Down stories.

Meredith is an author and blogger and writes the Perfection Pending website.

In this episode we each talk about our thoughts on “toxic positivity” and parenting in a way that feels real, authentic, and in a way that helps create self-sufficient future adults.

We also talk about “reaching for a better feeling thought” and again the Kimochi chart for feelings was plugged.

If you have an issue with yelling or anxious lash-outs I think you’ll really enjoy our chat. 🙂

Meredith has a new book out called The Mother Load: Surviving the Daily Grind Without Losing Your Ever-Loving Mind.

You can purchase it from Amazon, here.

Let’s talk GETTING THINGS DONE today. I am so honored to share an amazing interview with Megan Sumrell from the Work & Life Harmony podcast and the owner of the The Pink Bee website and planner company —

Megan is a productivity and organization expert — and in this episode we talk about getting things done without sacrificing your health, sanity, or well-being.

Megan and I chat candidly about what self-care looks like in REAL LIFE — spoiler alert: it’s not basic hygiene! 😉

we talk about getting up to your breaking point — and if you don’t actively take the time to SLOW down, your body will choose it for you.

So think about this today as you are going throughout your day helping and serving others —

what do you do for YOU and only you?

In this episode Steph interviews Lisa Lizotte of the Habits and Home website and podcast show.

Because the thing is — when you have habits in place — you no longer need to think about them. They just happen automatically.

In our house, we do the Daily 7.

In Lisa’s house, she does the Daily Reset (sign up for her newsletter and get the reset checklist sent right away)

There’s no more thinking — just actioning.

and not in a frantic or hustley way. We are only interested in doing things that feel good and are simple and sustainable.

In this interview Lisa shares how she needed to clean out her parents’ home when they passed away suddently and how that experience led her to want to become more minimal.

In fact, she went so far as to sell their 2000 sq foot home and move into an RV with her three kids!

She is the first to admit that this is extreme. Listen in as she shares what you can do RIGHT NOW to start living a simpler, sustainable life — one habit at a time.

Episode 76 - Emily's Story -- Escaping a MLM

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Emily Lynn Paulson is the author of “Hey Hun: Sales, Sisterhood, Supremacy, and the Other Lies Behind Multilevel Marketing“ — and she joined me for a very candid interview on how she got sucked into the online MLM world and then how she got out of it.

This was such a great conversation, and I immensely appreciate Emily’s honesty and candor — she likens the MLM world to being in a cult — and while that term seems rather harsh, she shares a ton of research and testimonials that back up this claim.

The fact is, adulting and motherhood is terribly isolating. While I was a bit incredulous (at first) that a well-educated woman with a great family and upbringing could “fall” for a “scam” —It happens every day. Many, many, many times a day.

Slick marketing preys on vulnerability — it’s happened to me, and I’m certain it’s probably happened to you.

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 75 - Ruth's Slow Living Story

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

We are welcomed on the podcast today by Ruth Bush, who shares that she used the Slow Down of the pandemic to write her first novel.

and Ruth‘s author website is here.

Ruth‘s story is one that we can ALL relate to —

when she was in college, a palm reader told her that she had a novel inside of her —

And Ruth agreed.

But then life happened.

Fast forward more than twenty years, and the lockdown months of the pandemic urged Ruth to finally start writing the story that had been percolating in her brain on and off for so many years.

I think we all have this urge, this inkling to DO what we’ve been putting off —

and it’s so terribly easy to keep shelving this urge and this inkling.

Listen as Ruth shares how she decided to just “go for it” and how she structured her day to find time to write —

If you’ve been looking for a sign to get started on whatever YOUR “something” is —

this is it.

Overview

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

75 - Denise's Story - Balancing Motherhood with Work

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 74 - Denise's Story

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

I am so thrilled to share with you the newest episode of the Slow Living podcast, where Denise shares her story.

Denise currently lives in Germany, and in this episode she shares how she got her PHD and became Head of Global Industry Management for a large company while raising four children.

In this episode, she shares how she was able to “do it all” while having small children in the home and how she learned what things are priorities and what are not.

She shares her “messy kitchen” approach, and how to compartmentalize working hours with at-home hours.

This is a fantastic listen and although we were on the other side of the world in different time zones, speak different languages, and have vastly different educational backgrounds we have a ton in common.

Focus on that as you go about your day(s) —

the similarities.

the familiarities.

it’s easy to spot the differences — look for the sameness.

and remember that it is never too late to keep heading towards your dreams — however far away they may look to you.

You are not too old, and it is not too late.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

on Instagram or Facebook or record a voicemail question.

Overview

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

I understand how you’re feeling when you are rushing around trying to do “all the things,” always playing catch up and finding time to get things done.

I know because I’m a mom too.

It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.

Stephanie's Story

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

This is a wonderful interview with my friend Christy Thomas from the Keep Calm and Mother On podcast.

Christy is a renowned podcaster, mom, and all-around amazing human, and I’m absolutely thrilled to have her joining us today on the Slow Living podcast.

Christy is a big fan of meditation and breath work and uses it daily to help center herself and her children.

She shares practical advice for getting started with meditation — even if you’ve never done it before or think it’s not something that would benefit you.

Listen in as she shares her own Slow Living story and how she incorporates slowing down throughout her day — even though she absolutely is a productive person who accomplishes an awful lot!

Episode 72 - Deciphering Data

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

If you’ve been a longtime listener of the Slow Living podcast you will have heard me say many many (many!) times that you are not a spreadsheet.

and you aren’t.

BUT — that doesn’t mean I want you to not collect or pay attention to data.

When you are trying to better yourself or your life situation in some way, you do have to keep track and pay attention to what’s happening. It’s not going to be helpful to never step on a scale if you are trying to lose a bit of weight and it won’t be advantageous if you never look at your bank statement if you are trying to improve your financial situation.

Collect the data.

But try to separate your feelings from the data.

Data is just data. It doesn’t mean that you are good or bad or smart or stupid.

It’s inanimate information.

You need to work to keep your thoughts and feeling and emotions separate from the data — and that’s what this episode is all about.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

on Instagram or Facebook or record a voicemail question.

Episode 71 - Self-Loathing

What do you love about yourself, really LOVE about yourself?

If you aren’t able to make a list quite yet, that’s okay — you are not alone.

Listen in as I share how to start pivoting thoughts of self–loathing carefully and thoughtfully into thoughts of self-love.

I don’t want you to treat this as a pendulum.

Being fully and deeply in love with yourself may take some time — but you will be happier and more at peace and love your day-to-day life if you can learn how to drown out the negative self-talk with words of love and affirmation.

In this episode I talk about how to not fall for internet hype and online schemes that are designed to get you to buy things that you don't necessarily want or need.

Unfortunately, I have fallen for scams in the past.

And it doesn't feel good to realize (after the fact) that you've been duped. In this episode I share the red flags to look out for and how to fact check as best you can to keep from investing in what may end up be a disappointing purchase.

Episode 69 - Should there be Suffering?

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Do you think you need to “suffer through” something to get to the other side?

Do you believe in the old adage, “no pain, no gain?”

Spoiler alert — I do not.

Part of the human experience is to have highs and lows. But you most certainly DO NOT need to have lows in order to make the highs “better” or “more worthy.”

Lows happen.

Highs happen.

And that’s all there is to it.

😉

well, maybe there’s a bit more to it….

Episode 68 - Believing in Miracles

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Let’s talk MIRACLES today.

sometimes, as life goes on, the idea of believing in miracles gets sort of shoved aside as “fanciful thinking” —

and while I do not believe that you should sit around and daydream all day —

not knowing all the HOWS is okay.

Remember —

if we are lucky, life is long — but enjoying the here and the now is what makes life worth living —

and it’s okay to dream. It’s okay to think up wild ideas.

and it’s ALSO OKAY to not know how they might “come true.”

Suspend your disbelief for a while.

Make a list of lots of fun things you’d like to do —

and shelve your inner skeptic who thinks they might be too far-fetched or unrealistic.

Have fun.

Play.

Believe.

Episode 66 - Know Your Number -- FIRE Movement

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Today we need to do some Mathing.

even if Math isn’t your strong suit.

It most certainly isn’t mine — I was an English major and married Adam so I could put math away for good.

Or so I thought.

Today’s encore episode is about figuring out your FIRE number — your financial independence and retirement age number.

You’ve got to know what you’re working towards — otherwise you’ll just be on a perpetual hamster wheel.

I get asked, sometimes, what is the best gift to give to children —

and this is the answer:

Knowing that you are going to be all set in your retirement and they don’t have to worry about you.

REALLY.

not a trip to Disney.

or Europe.

or a paid for college “experience” —

but instead, give them the ability to learn how to Adult and take care of themselves and their future so they don’t need to worry about taking care of you.

66 - Slow Living Encore Series: Motivation is a Choice

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 65 - Motivation is a Choice

see all podcast notes atstephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Let’s talk Making Things Happen even if you don’t feel like it.

Because this is real life.

and real life isn’t always sunshine and roses and puppy dogs and sparkles.

Real Life has highs and lows and sometimes ditches and gullies and cliffs.

This week’s encore episode is how to keep yourself moving forward on your goals and dreams even when you don’t want to.

Because probably about half the time, you really aren’t going to want to.

and that’s normal. and there’s nothing wrong with you.

Take a listen, this is life-changing stuff.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

on Instagram or Facebook or record a voicemail question.

Overview

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

I understand how you’re feeling when you are rushing around trying to do “all the things,” always playing catch up and finding time to get things done.

I know because I’m a mom too.

It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.

Stephanie's Story

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

I am here to support you.

65 - Slow Living Encore Series: New Years Resolutions -- Yay or Nay?

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 64 - New Years Resolutions -- Yay or Nay?

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

download New Year New You worksheets at stephanieodea.com/newyou

Now is the absolute perfect time to pop the ear buds in and binge-listen to the Slow Living podcast.

Dust while you listen.

or mop

or vacuum

or clean out the linen closet

or go walk laps in your neighborhood.

You’ll feel better about yourself if you stay productive while listening and there are now 64 episodes, which is about 32 hours worth of listening.

If you aren’t a fan of New Year’s Resolutions because you think they don’t “work” — then I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

I am a HUGE proponent of making & keeping my resolutions and am living out the life of my dreams because I’ve taken the time to craft and create and tweak and modify them throughout the last 20-odd years of my adult life.

You can do this too.

It’s time. If you’ve been waiting for a nudge from the Universe —

this is it.

You have GOT THIS.

You really really do. Nothing is too far-fetched for the person who refuses to listen to reason.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

64 - Slow Living Encore Series: How to Get What You Want when You Want it

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 63 - How to Get What You Want when You Want it

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

We have an encore episode queued up for you today.

I originally entitled it “How to get What You Want, When you Want it”

and today, I want you to listen with fresh ears — and think of Getting What You Want out of life as if you are placing an online order.

Place your order.

DREAM.

DREAM BIG.

and then go about your life, doing the things you need to do, and trust that your order is on the way.

Slow Down. Unplug. Go within and decide on purpose what is important and what isn’t and what you (and only you) can do right now to change this doom and gloom trajectory for yourself.

Use the daily journaling worksheets. Listen to uplifting things. Decide that you are in charge and that you can do helpful things each and every day to better yourself and your life.

And then just trust —

your order is in transit.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

on Instagram or Facebook or record a voicemail question.
