Pick Your Tribe Wisely

Tue, 03 May 2022 09:00:41 GMT

Who do you want to become? There’s a saying that we are the average of the top 5 people we spend the majority of our time with - are those people in your life serving you and your goals?

If you have anyone in your life - or on your social media feed - that doesn’t make you feel supported, loved, and inspired, then they are not worth your time or energy.

Throughout this episode, I am talking about my incredible tribe of people that I have in my life, the different ways I have met them, and the pivotal ways they have changed my life. I also give some book recommendations for those of you that are looking for a new read.

In this episode, you will hear a continuation of my conversation from last week’s episode with my therapist and coach, Dr. Janet.

Hopefully, this series continues to show you that there is no shame in going to therapy and seeking help even when you least want it.

As long as we all are continuing to strengthen our emotional fitness and work on our mind, soul, and body, we are making progress.

Mindfulness 101 with Dr. Janet Fienemann

Tue, 29 Jun 2021 09:00:28 GMT

Welcome back to the Coach’s Corner with Dr. Janet Fienemann! This week, Dr. Janet and I are talking about the importance of recognizing your unmet needs and how they are influencing your thoughts and feelings.

In this episode, Dr. Janet and I are talking about an exercise that she calls “Mindfulness 101”. This exercise is to ask yourself and write down: what do you want, what do you feel, what do you think, and what do you need? We are conditioned from a young age to put others' needs before our own, leading to us not knowing what we want and wanting to make everyone around us happy. This conditioning leads to resentment and exhaustion because our needs are not being met. When you tune in to your own thoughts and gain clarity on how your unmet needs are impacting your feelings, you will see the value in prioritizing your needs.

Tune in to Episode 57 to learn how to become aware of your unmet needs with the Mindfulness 101 exercise!

In This Episode, You Will Learn:

About the Mastermind group Dr. Janet (3:28)
The importance of being mindful of yourself (9:00)
How our unmet needs are driving our feelings (17:25)
Janet’s advice for incorporating the Mindfulness 101 practice in your life (20:16)

Have you experienced or known someone who has been a victim of sexual abuse?

If you have experienced any form of abuse, recovery can seem even harder than the experience of it. Facing the emotions and working through them is a necessary step to healing properly and giving yourself a future that is not defined by your abuse.

Throughout her healing journey, Catherine has become an educator around human trafficking, sex trafficking, and child sexual abuse prevention, and she is the executive director at Stop Trafficking US, a six-year-old nonprofit that continues to grow rapidly and change lives.

What are your greatest fears and desires? If we only focus on our desires and never face our fears, our life is not nearly as rich as it could be. In 2021 let’s make sure to challenge ourselves, stand up to what scares us, and believe we can achieve it!

One of the things I'm scared about is doing solo episodes, so I figured it was time to overcome this fear, just like I did with many others. That's why, last year in my Believe It Achieve It Facebook group I announced that I would do one solo episode a month, and now's the time to keep my promise.

Tony says life’s dance is between our fears and desires, and right now, my lead dancers are all the things that I want to accomplish. In this episode, you'll hear me talk about the recent challenge I've embarked on, my reflection on the journey we all have of overcoming our fears, and what I'm set on doing next in the areas of health and personal wellbeing.

Tune in to Episode 37, and begin to find out ways to make your desires a reality by challenging your fears.

How to Train Your Dog: Start with the Human, with Greg DiFranza

Tue, 05 May 2020 10:00:12 GMT

Do you ever wonder if your dog actually understands what you’re saying to him?

Here’s the truth: they understand your energy behind your words and actions. A happy “Good boy!” will result in a joyful, jumpy pup – but it’s all about the energy behind your words.

He walks us through how dogs communicate, how to manage your energy, and understanding their basic instincts. We also discuss the sudden rise of dog aggression during the COVID-19 pandemic, how they’re trying to take care of their owners, and how you can best care for your dog as well.

Welcome to the World of Gratitude

Tue, 21 Apr 2020 04:00:24 GMT

“When you feel good then success in all areas of your life is easy to achieve. I love to empower people to discover their dreams and to ignite their lives”

If you could live the life of your dreams, what would it look like? What would you be doing? Where and how would you live?

I believe everyone should be living the life of their dreams and welcome you to Believe It, Achieve It! I’m your host Nicole Windley and, each week, this show will serve up a dose of magic to help guide you in living your best life.

I’ll be joined by health and wellness experts, amazing spiritual beings and everyday people sharing their personal development journeys and offering tips, tools, skills and guidance to help you take your life to the next level.

We’re talking real conversations - no fluff; a raw, unpolished and honest dialogue that will also teach you how to navigate life during difficult times.

I’m beyond thrilled to have our first guest join me in launching the show; Dr. Janet Fienemann is a therapist based in Jacksonville (a fellow Floridian) specializing in counseling, mindfulness and Cognitive Behavior Therapy. I first met Janet during a dark time in my life and she provided me with the tools I needed to, as she says, live my badass life!

Janet and I discuss the importance of gratitude, especially during these times, and she provides insight into the science behind it and offers her recommendation on simple, daily gratitude practices that can make a world of difference - I’m speaking from first hand experience!

These are challenging times for many of us and it’s important that we feel what we feel, acknowledge those feelings and understand that there’s always something to be grateful for. Gratitude is all about appreciating the silver linings in the midst of all the bad stuff.

I look forward to having you tuning in and joining us!
