Journey To Yourself

You do not know it all, and you can always learn more!

This past week at Anna Ehlenberger PBC networking group, Alan Scholnick, PCC, CPC, CPA, MST, CGMA, MAOL, ELI-MP was the guest speaker!!!

🎤 As a speaker, I LOVE not only supporting other speakers but learning from them too. On paper, we speak on similar topics, but the cool thing is we teach differently. We get to engage differently with our audiences.

Stress is every day. The idea is to have healthy reactions to stress.

🕯 Each year for my business anniversary I host a fundraiser for the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention Last year we raised over $3,000.

This year our goal is $4,000.

💜 MY WHY: 💜

💔 I believe we all have a day when we have questioned our own life decisions. We can all understand when someone feels low.

👷‍♀️ This cause is important to my business and clients as I serve primarily in the blue industry. According to the CDC, su***de rates are increasing, including in the blue-collar construction industry.

AFSP specifically as they provide support, and education at all levels to reach as many lives as possible. 80% of the donations go towards their programs, education, and services.

💜 I truly believe in this cause and want to help support the education and awareness this foundation provides. I am also part of their walk committee and host a group to walk every year.

Think about those days when you're rushing around- Your mind feels chaotic and you're going from one thing to the next.

What are you accomplishing and getting done correctly?

Those days, you are running from each room, one task to another, and forgetting things mentally or physically.

I look at it this way: When my TV is not working, I have to turn it off, count to five, and turn it back on. Then, it usually works fine.

We are not computers. 👎💻We need to reset and refocus. 😮‍💨🤓

WAY too excited to post this episode with Shana Francesca

When asked: "What % of your stress is caused by miscommunication?"
What would you say?

Once a quarter I provide educational workshops to Jill Barbera team.
This quarter I implemented my Communication Educational Workshop.

Each quarter, I look forward to seeing Jill and her rockstar team!!

I joined the campaign to help the American Cancer Society in its fight to end cancer.

💜 Every dollar raised will help impact research to find more – and better – treatments, uncover factors that may cause cancer, and improve the quality of life for people facing cancer.

😮 The American Cancer Society has invested more than $5 billion in cancer research.

It can be easy to chase the next shiny thing. You have a lot of the skills and knowledge already. It's about implementing them and how you do that consistently.

J. Lorber Company Company is a family-owned business that started in 1918 in a true entrepreneurial fashion. Joseph Lorber saw a problem and decided to solve it.

Michael Lorber is a great leader and believes in providing resources for their team. You can see his support shine through his energetic team.

I was excited to start providing my educational workshops and coaching service. See you and your team next month.

Every year, I host a fundraiser that is close to my 💜 in September. (stay tuned).

This year I was asked by Megan Kutzner to become an ambassador for American Cancer Society. It became close to my heart as Megan educated me on the program.

Growing up, women's health education is not something we are taught. When it is girls' night and our health comes up in topic. It never fails for one of us to say, "OMG I didn't know that".

ResearcHERS is about helping to build a future where women are one of many - not one of few. ResearcHERS is helping to strengthen the field of cancer research.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Megan Kutzner.

📵You say, "Don’t call me after 8pm." - (same here, btw) because that is your standard.
You say, "Don’t eat in my car." - because that is your standard.
You say, "Don’t wear your shoes in my house." - because that is your standard.

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

🧘Not answering your phone on the way home from work = to give you time to decompress.
Only going out once a week for networking = to create balance in your life.
🤔No work email or calls when you are eating dinner. = to give you time to think of anything else.
Where else are you setting standards in your life? 🫵 🫶 🙌

🧌 Today we talk to Katie about how burnout became a monster in her life.

We hear about compassion fatigue in health, but what about the insurance industry?

🎙️ Katie has opened our discussion to thoughts we all can relate to:

💜My life had no joy.
💜Not strong enough to handle, must be why they left.
💜Feeling weak.

Time to tune in to see how Katie CEO of River City Virtual Assistant is helping business owners avoid burnout. 🎙️

You know your friends from childhood, what about your friends in your late 20's? 🥰

I want to give a huge shoutout to my girl Sarah Callahan she pulled off a successful event at Motivate Fitness PA last week. We met when we were going through personal life transitions. Now I get to see her in her flourishing era! - Keep killing it! 🤩

The event brought together clients and vendors. The room was filled with engagements, energy, and a scavenger hunt.

Think about all the things you have learned because of social media.

Especially in the health field.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 I am at the age where many of my friends are getting married or having kids. Both life changes are scary. So what do you do, you go right to Google or social media.

📚 We say we were not taught this when we were young. - And a lot of us were not.

With all that being said:

💜 This year, I have joined the 2024 ResearcHERS American Cancer Society of Greater Philadelphia campaign to support women-led cancer research.

Women make invaluable contributions to cancer research, yet are underrepresented in research leadership. This campaign raises funds and awareness for women-led cancer research and programs introducing the next generation of girls to careers in STEM.

🙏 Thank you Megan Kutzner for this opportunity!

You are happy, but a part of you is not.
You laugh, but a part of you that wants to cry.
You feel you should be grateful for the life you have, but can’t find the joy.

When I meet with my clients, some questions that are hard for them to answer include:
What makes you happy? 😀
What hobbies do you have?🛹📖
What motivates you? 🤔

To get these answers, you need to spend time with yourself. This time alone will give you time to learn about yourself. Learn what you need and want. You will learn how to communicate your needs and wants with practice, time, and patience.

What is one way you can hang out with yourself today?🥰

You sit and watch, you want to join the dance floor but feel awkward. 🕺

You sit down to have a lunch break—your phone rings.

You are now standing and trying to take a bite of your sandwich, and you see an email that you need to follow up, by calling them.

You hear all this great advice on how to show up for you every day. The thing is not everything is going to work for you.

On Friday at CI Services, LLC we discussed what we see as wasted time, talked solutions, and how to start making time for you every day.

Thank you, Matthew Applegate and your team for another great workshop.

What is one trick/habit you practice to save time?

You plan your day to get all the chores, and reports done. Do you also plan time for just you?

🕰 At the Willows Park Preserve , I implemented a workshop teaching how to use the Eisenhower box, delegate, and make time for you.

☕ When you create a habit it is about making small consistent moves. When you "Drink the coffee while it is HOT" it is a small and consistent habit you can follow.

❓ What is one thing you do today for just you?

❄ Yes, I am wearing gloves. I hate being cold. I had a jacket on too, but Marikate Venuto said "Branding Jessica"! 🤣

Benjamin Franklin started his day by asking, "What good shall I do today?

⏰ You wake up and your to-do list starts to populate in your head. Then your anxious thoughts start: how will I get all of this done?

💜 At Sweetwater Construction Corp. this week in our workshops we discussed how understanding different departments reduces wasted time and stress. We also talked about two different time management methods.

Followed by a day of employee coaching.

🗒 Eisenhower Box/Matrix - President Eisenhower was known for delegating.

🕰 Time Blocking - Benjamin Franklin is one of the first references to practicing time blocking.

❓ Does delegating come easy to you?
