How to Live by Design, Not Default - with Julie Ciardi
Wednesday Jan 31, 2024
Wednesday Jan 31, 2024
Today’s episode is for all the girlies who have ever felt trapped in a life lived on “default.” It’s an awesome conversation with my fabulous friend Julie, who on the outside, very much looks like she “does it all.” She’s got a 7-figure business, a top 1.5% globally ranked podcast, over 20 years of marketing and sales experience, had a brick and mortar boutique, and more…including a husband and 3 kids. But really, Julie’s life has been filled with very intentional choices and specific moves to let her live by her own design - and very much NOT by default. In this episode, she shares how she managed to rise the corporate ranks at IBM - all the way to VP of Marketing - while still saying “no” and coaching her son’s soccer team. She spills the secret to building your self-image and self-confidence to make bold moves in your own life, and she breaks down her formula for being a “Mom AND.” Whether you’re a corporate chica, an ambitious entrepreneur, and/or a fellow mama, this episode is not one to miss!

Managing Mom Guilt AND Time (Realistically!) - with Theresa Harp
Wednesday Mar 15, 2023
Wednesday Mar 15, 2023
As a military wife, mom of four, AND owner of two businesses, Theresa just gets it. We’ve probably all heard someone say “just eliminate what doesn’t serve you!”, but as moms we’re looking around at each other like…we have kids, partners and families to serve, too! We need practical ways to actually manage multiple things without losing ourselves in the process, and Theresa’s got exactly that. Today on THRIVE, we talk about realistically managing mom guilt while creating better time management systems for your family (and yourself!). Theresa gives tricks for identifying your own personal triggers to help get a better sense of “doing it all” in any season. She walks us through creating a framework for bucketing your life to categorically, visually see both wants AND needs, and she’s got tips for being more proactive instead of reactively ping-ponging between email notifications and laundry dinging and kids requesting the 5th snack of the day.

When God Presses Pause on YOUR Plans - with Leigh Howell
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Leigh is a mom of 3 boys, a wife, and a family physician - but in 2020, her life took a major turn (beyond 2020’s usual of a global pandemic). After receiving a cancer diagnosis, she felt God press pause on her life plans and stop the autopilot, forcing her to redirect her attention and reassess her priorities accordingly. From there she took a major shift in her medical career and a faithful jump in a different direction. Today on THRIVE, Leigh shares her story with a vulnerable inside look into her brain throughout the process, as well as tips for dealing with any feelings of guilt that may pop up when making big life shifts. We also break down the idea of “balance” and figure out the sweet spot for truly “having it all” while creating better boundaries to reflect your honest priorities in your current season.

How I VISION BOARD for the New Year
Wednesday Jan 04, 2023
Wednesday Jan 04, 2023
Happy New Year! Welcome to 2023, and welcome to SEASON 4 of THRIVE. We’re kicking things off in show, sweet, and simple way, with a mini episode on VISION BOARDING. I like to make a vision board to help clarify my personal goals and dreams for the year and work as a visual reminder and guide. It’s a helpful way to align and re-align daily habits and routines, so that 365 days from now, you can say that you somehow embody certain traits or have experienced certain things that you haven’t as of yet.

How do we invest the hours of our days so that we feel truly, deeply satisfied? Award-winning teacher and research and now bestselling author, Dr. Cassie Holmes unpacks exactly that today on THRIVE.
