The part where the excitement wears off, self-doubt creeps in, ideas feel unfinished, perfectionism gets loud, and you wonder if you should just give up altogether.

In this episode of Magic Made, Megan and artist/muralist Chrissy Sherry dive deep into the reality of creative growth, unfinished dreams, trusting the process, comparison, perfectionism, and learning how to keep moving even when things feel uncertain.

From abandoned paintings and creative burnout to launching a nonprofit during 2020 chaos, this conversation is a reminder that beautiful things are often built in imperfect seasons.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, creatively blocked, or afraid to take the next step… this episode is your sign to keep going.

✨ In this episode:

Why perfectionism keeps creatives stuck
How comparison quietly steals confidence
Learning to trust the process
What to do when you feel like quitting
Creative identity shifts
Why community matters in the messy middle
The story behind New Makers Market
How to reconnect with your purpose

This one feels like sitting on the floor of an art studio with friends who remind you that your dreams are still worth pursuing. 🎨✨

In this episode of Magic Made, Megan Holly breaks down a powerful reframe:
stress is not something to eliminate—it’s something to understand.

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in cycles of overthinking, overperforming, or feeling constantly “on edge,” this episode will help you shift from frustration to awareness—and into action.

Inside this episode, we dive into:

•  Why stress is a signal (not a personal failure) 
•  The difference between acute vs. chronic stress 
•  How overconsumption, overperformance, and people-pleasing fuel overwhelm 
•  Why regulating yourself matters more than eliminating stressors 
•  Simple tools to release stress from your body and mind 
•  How to create boundaries that actually reduce stress long-term 

This is your reminder that:
 ✨ You are not broken
 ✨ You don’t have to carry it all
 ✨ You are allowed to feel lighter—even in hard seasons

Take a breath, tune in, and start listening to what your stress is trying to tell you.

In this episode, we’re rewriting the narrative around movement, exercise, and what it really means to take care of your body.

Because here’s the truth:
 ✨ Movement is not punishment
 ✨ You don’t have to earn it
 ✨ And it doesn’t have to be rigid to be effective

We’re diving into:
 💫 Letting go of old stories around exercise and body image
 💫 Why consistency doesn’t have to mean strict routines
 💫 How to reconnect with your body through joyful movement
 💫 The shift from “I have to” → “I get to”

If you’ve ever struggled with staying consistent, feeling motivated, or actually enjoying movement… this episode is your permission slip to do it differently.

🎧 Press play, move your body (even a little), and let’s change the way you show up for yourself.

In this episode of Magic Made, we’re diving into a powerful mindset shift that can help you move through stress, anxiety, and overwhelm with more ease, clarity, and confidence.

I’m introducing you to the concept of “confidence portals”—intentional spaces or moments in your day where you get to reset your energy, regulate your mind, and reconnect with your most grounded, confident self.

Whether it’s your morning coffee, your car, your shower, or a quiet moment alone… these portals become your daily anchor in the chaos of life.

Inside this episode, we talk about:

Why stress directly impacts your confidence and self-worth
How to create intentional “confidence portals” in your everyday routine
My personal shower ritual that helps me reset, refocus, and rewire my mindset
How to stop spiraling in stress and start choosing your energy instead
The power of consistency in building calm, clarity, and confidence

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or mentally heavy… this episode is your invitation to take your power back and create moments that support you—every single day.

✨ Confidence isn’t something you wait for.
It’s a promise you make to yourself.

This is a permission-slip episode for anyone who feels behind, stuck, or like their progress should look like a clean staircase instead of a messy, beautiful human rhythm. Megan talks hustle culture, burnout signs (especially when rest makes you feel “unworthy”), and why ease is not laziness, it’s wisdom.

You’ll explore how growth actually works: in cycles, seasons, and spirals. And how self-trust (not self-criticism) is the bridge that helps you move forward without crushing yourself in the process.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why “constant forward progress” is exhausting

How hustle culture messes with your worth

The truth: growth ebbs, flows, and circles back

Why stillness and different approaches are not stagnation

Replacing urgency with ease (especially for recovering perfectionists)

Building self-trust so your goals feel lighter

A question to ground you: Where are you rushing yourself unnecessarily?

✨ Reflection prompt:
What brings you ease, and how can you do more of it on purpose?

If you’ve ever collapsed into the couch thinking you were resting, only to feel more drained, anxious, or disconnected afterward, this episode will help you identify what’s happening and how to shift it with compassion, not shame.

Megan shares the subtle cues that reveal when you’re restoring versus when you’re checking out, plus how to bring emotional presence back into everyday downtime so your rest actually nourishes you.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The difference between resting, restoring, numbing, and disappearing
• Why doom scrolling can leave you feeling worse (and how to tell)
• How your body signals real rest (deep breath, relaxed shoulders) vs numbing (fidgeting, discomfort, mental chatter)
• A simple “flag system” to check your habits: green, yellow, red
• Why vices and coping mechanisms aren’t “bad” but they are informative
• How to find your own “top tier” restoration practices (Megan’s: movement, stillness, creativity)

✨ Reflection prompt:
What truly replenishes you, and how can you do more of it intentionally (not accidentally)?

If you find little moments of magic (sunbeams, rainbows, prisms, glimmers), share them on your socials and tag Megan. And if you’re new here, subscribe/follow so you don’t miss weekly conversations designed to help you live with more ease, joy, and intention.

In this episode of the Magic Made Podcast, Megan Holly gets real about boundaries, capacity, and what it looks like to stop living as a default “yes person.” If you’ve ever said yes and immediately felt resentment, pressure, or guilt, this conversation is your gentle (and slightly spicy) permission slip to do things differently.

Megan explores the idea that energy is a resource, not an obligation, and how learning to listen to your body can help you make clearer decisions in business, relationships, and everyday life. Because sometimes our brains will try to convince us that overgiving equals being more worthy or more lovable, but your nervous system knows the truth faster than your mind can narrate it.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why overcommitting often turns into resentment (and burnout)

How to release guilt around your capacity (because it fluctuates!)

The difference between excitement, anxiety, and pressure

How ignoring physical cues creates a “pressure cooker” effect

Why your worth is not tied to productivity, output, or being helpful

How boundaries create a ripple effect for everyone around you

Key takeaways + reminders:

Your capacity isn’t fixed. You’re not broken if it changes.

Self-judgment is a terrible coach. It makes the worst spaghetti. 🍝

Clear communication is a boundary. Deadlines, deliverables, and expectations matter.

Movement and quiet are fast resets that bring you back to clarity and homeostasis.

✨ Reflection prompt:
Where are you saying yes out of pressure instead of true excitement?

Drop your mantra for this season in the comments. You might be the exact ripple someone else needed today.

In this episode of the Magic Made Podcast, Megan Holly shares five quirky, surprisingly powerful ways she stays present in everyday life, especially in seasons where everything feels fast, noisy, and a little too “go-go-go.”

If you’ve ever looked back at a week (or a month) and thought, Wait… what did I even do?, this conversation is for you. Megan reminds us that presence is a practice, not a personality trait, and that small, simple moments can bring us back to ourselves, our senses, and our actual life.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why we slip into autopilot (and how to interrupt it gently)
• How “presence compounds” and becomes easier over time
• Using tiny rituals to create moments of grounding throughout the day
• The difference between numbness and normal busyness
• How to be more present with yourself, your people, and your life

Megan’s 5 “weird” presence practices include:

1. Choosing an intentional cue in a mundane moment (like picking a specific gas pump)
2. Sending a quick protection thought/prayer when you hear sirens
3. Noticing a “rainbow light” ritual and letting it create a real human moment
4. Savoring “the last bite” to practice joy and autonomy in tiny ways
5. Opening a door or window daily to shift energy, reset your home, and reconnect with nature

✨ Reflection prompt:
What’s one tiny moment in your day you could turn into a presence cue?

If you loved this episode, subscribe/follow, turn on notifications, and come tell Megan in the comments:
Which “weird” one are you trying first? And what’s your own quirky way of staying present?

In this short Magic Made episode, I’m sharing a closer look at our Magic Made merch—created as simple, intentional ways to feel more connected, grounded, and inspired in everyday life. ✨

From our plant jewelry that catches sunlight and throws rainbows, to our Make Your Own Magic hoodies designed to feel cozy, elevated, and meaningful, each piece was created to be more than merch. These are wearable reminders and everyday magic moments.

🌱 Plant Jewelry
Handcrafted pieces that tuck into your plants and reflect sunlight into rainbows—made with crystals like amethyst and turquoise, and created in collaboration with another woman-owned business, AM Creations. Perfect for plant lovers, crystal lovers, and anyone who loves chasing light.

🖤 Make Your Own Magic Hoodies
Soft, cozy hoodies with thoughtful details—“Make Your Own Magic” down the sleeve and across the back—designed to remind you (and everyone who sees you) that magic is something we create, even on hard days.

This merch is about connection, confidence, creativity, and community. We’re growing slowly and intentionally, supporting women in business, and building something that feels aligned and meaningful.

✨ If you have a piece already, tag me so I can see you out there spreading magic.
 ✨ Have ideas for future Magic Made merch? Drop them in the comments.

We’re just getting started—and I can’t wait to keep making magic together.

In this episode of Magic Made, Megan Holly reflects on what really happened after committing to a year of daily movement. What began as a simple “365 Days of Dance” challenge quietly transformed into a ritual, a relationship, and ultimately a sustainable way of living with more joy, presence, and trust.

This isn’t an episode about perfection, checklists, or pushing harder. It’s a conversation about consistency over intensity, language over pressure, and why the way we approach our goals matters more than how quickly we complete them.

Megan shares honest insights about:

• Why most challenges fall apart (and how to reframe them)
• The difference between doing something to prove yourself vs. doing it to support yourself
• How daily movement became a form of emotional regulation and joy
• Why sustainability in life matters just as much as sustainability in business or wellness
• How changing your language can change your experience
• Letting go of outcomes and focusing on the version of you being shaped along the way

This episode is for you if you’ve ever:

• “Fallen off” a habit and felt defeated
• Felt overwhelmed by intensity and expectations
• Wanted more joy but didn’t know how to make it stick
• Craved a practice that feels supportive instead of demanding

Megan also introduces the evolution from “365 Days of Dance” into “Moving Your Magic: A Daily Dose of Dance”, inviting listeners to release perfection and reconnect with their bodies in a way that feels freeing, human, and sustainable.

✨ Reflection prompt:
What is the feeling you want to sustain in your life right now, and what small, consistent practice could support it?

Real confidence is self-trust. It’s the quiet underbelly of your daily choices. The rituals, the boundaries, the non-negotiables, and the way you come back to yourself when your mind tries to hand the microphone to other people’s opinions.

If you’ve ever looked at someone and thought, they have it all together, so they must be confident, this episode will lovingly flip that belief on its head.

Where do you feel comparison sneaks in most: body, business, relationships, or creativity?

In this episode, we talk about:

Why confidence feels unattainable when we make it “big”

The mic-drop truth: Confidence isn’t who you are on your best day

How self-trust creates sustainable confidence (not a sugar spike + crash)

What confidence used to look like to me (and why that definition didn’t hold up)

The difference between “the things” and the intention behind the things

The “confidence hydration bottles” concept: what fills you up, fuels you, and steadies you

How to identify your 3 confidence bottles (laughter, clothing that feels good, time boundaries, movement, etc.)

Why comparison puts other people in the driver’s seat of your life (and how to take it back)

The power of one daily non-negotiable that keeps you steady, even on hard days

Your gentle challenge:

Pick three confidence bottles to “hydrate” this week.
Then ask: What daily choices keep them filled?

👇 Comment and tell me:
What’s in your confidence hydration bottle right now?
What’s one non-negotiable that makes you feel like you?

And yes…go drink some water too. 😉💧

You don’t need to fix your life. You just need somewhere soft to land. 🫶
In this episode of Magic Made, we’re talking about nervous system regulation, what it feels like when life gets “too loud,” and how to create micro-shifts that help you feel calmer, more grounded, and more like yourself again.

If you’ve been living in survival mode (overwhelmed, hypervigilant, jumpy, procrastinating, exhausted, or feeling like your brain is on blast), this is your reminder that chaos might be common, but it doesn’t have to be your baseline.

You’ll hear how I think about grounding as more than a routine. It’s a relationship with yourself. It’s learning to notice when your internal “volume” is rising, and choosing to regulate before you crash, burn, or start letting things slip through the cracks.

In this episode, we cover:

Why you don’t need a “new year, new you” identity to feel better

What life feeling loud actually looks like (hypervigilance, avoidance, procrastinating simple tasks)

How to spot your dysregulation signs before you hit capacity

The simplest regulation move that changed everything for me (sleep and rest, even when my to-do list screams)

How to create more space without dropping the ball (move meetings, ask for support, loosen unrealistic timelines)

My regulating shower ritual (warmth + dim light + nervous system soothing)

The “bobblehead chicken” visual that might save your sanity 😅

A powerful end-of-episode question: What can you do to prove yourself wrong in 2026?

A gentle challenge:

What’s one second-by-second micro shift you can make this week to feel more regulated, confident, and supported?

👇 Comment & connect:
What’s been working for you lately to calm your nervous system?
And where do you feel stuck or overwhelmed right now?

In this first episode of the new year (and our new name!), I’m sharing what this space is really about: a soft landing, a deep exhale, and a place where you can be fully human. Some days you’ll leave with a warm hug. Other days you’ll get a loving little kick in the tush. Most days…both.

We talk about the magic in everyday life, the duality of joy and struggle, and how we can create small shifts that change everything, without the pressure to “fix” yourself.

Inside this episode:

What “Magic Made” means (and what you can expect here)

Why you don’t need to be “ready” or “qualified” to belong in this community

My go-to ritual for when life feels loud (spoiler: dim lights + shower + nervous system soothing)

What I used to struggle with that I now hold space for (anxiety, and learning to be present again)

The kind of support that’s made the biggest difference for me (tough love…done the right way)

A childhood story that perfectly explains my version of magic (yes, even in grief)

How I protect this space so it stays safe, grounded, and genuinely supportive

A little invitation:
Tell me in the comments, what does “magic” mean to you right now? And what’s one thing you can do differently today, instead of waiting for “someday”?

🎧 Listen, breathe, and come sit with me. 
We’re making magic in real life…together.

Whether you're struggling with confidence, navigating body changes, or trying to break free from old stories you picked up in childhood, this episode helps you rewrite the narrative and build a more loving, compassionate relationship with your body.

🌿 In this episode, we explore:

• Why loving your body is a dance, not a straight line
• How childhood comments, cultural messages, and societal standards shape body image
• Why self-worth and appearance must be separated
• How to stop treating your body like a “project” and start seeing it as a teammate
• How to shift from punishment-based movement to joyful, intuitive movement
• How to identify the beliefs you absorbed from others—and release them
• Why perfection is a myth and how to embrace being beautifully human
• How to build trust with your body in each season
• Rituals that support body love: mirror talk, intentional getting ready, embodied affirmations, gratitude routines

💬 Journaling Prompts:

• What messages about my body did I internalize growing up?
• Which of those stories actually belong to other people?
• How can I separate my worth from my appearance today?
• What kind of movement feels joyful—not punishing—to me?
• What is one thing my body did for me today that I can thank it for?

🌟 Body-Love Ritual Ideas:

• Mirror Talk + Music: Pair affirmations with a song that makes you feel powerful.
• Intentional Getting Ready: Choose clothes, earrings, or scents that make you feel good, not look a certain way.
• End-of-Day Gratitude: Thank your body for what it carried you through today—big or small.
• Joyful Movement: Dance, stretch, walk… not to “fix” your body, but to feel good inside it.

❤️ A gentle reminder:

Your body is not a before-and-after project.
 It’s your home, your ally, your teammate.
 You are worthy in all seasons, shapes, and stages.

In this episode of Taking Flight with Megan Holly, we dive into how to find your people, build a support system, and create a community that actually FEELS good—not surface-level, but soul-level.

Megan shares real-life stories about navigating hard seasons, medical anxiety with her dog, and shifting from autopilot into intentional, honest connection with friends, family, clients, and online community. You’ll learn how to attract the right people, deepen the relationships you already have, and stop dimming your energy just to fit in.

Whether you already have a core group or you feel like you’re on that lonely boat right now, this conversation will help you create connection, not just crave it.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why you weren’t meant to do life alone
• How community and connection actually create more confidence
• What it means to be truly witnessed by others in everyday life
• The difference between living on autopilot vs living intentionally with your people
• How honest communication can strengthen your relationships (even in hard seasons)
• Letting yourself be fully you—quirks, big feelings, and all—and letting the right people stay
• Why your “weird” or tender parts are actually magnets for your true tribe
• How your friends, partner, or community can help prevent burnout
• The “initiation rule”: being the one who reaches out instead of waiting
• Practical ideas for finding new friends and community as an adult

Reflection questions:

• Am I attracting or deflecting deeper connection in my daily life?
• Where have I gone on autopilot in my friendships, relationship, or community?
• Who already feels like a safe person… and how can I go one layer deeper with them?
• Where could I be the initiator—the one who sends the text, starts the convo, or invites the hangout?

Try this simple connection challenge:

This week, pick ONE of these:

• Text a friend: “Hey, if you’re up for it, can we chat sometime this week?”
• Compliment a stranger or coworker and see where the conversation goes
• Join a class, event, or local meetup that lights you up
• Tag someone who makes your life brighter and tell them why

Tiny actions build big, beautiful tribes. 💫

If this episode resonated:

💛 Comment and tag someone who makes you feel seen
💛 Share one way you’re going to be the initiator this week
💛 Like, subscribe, and stick around for more conversations on confidence, community, and living a life that feels like YOU

You don’t have to do life alone.
Your people are closer than you think. 🕯️

Megan shares how she went from “shy, quiet girl” to a woman who records podcasts, shows up boldly online, and lets her silly, magical self take up space. You’ll learn how to name the story, question whether it’s really true, and start making tiny 10-second actions that rewire your belief system over time.

If you’re craving more confidence, ease, and alignment in your life, business, or relationships, this episode is your permission slip to unsubscribe from the old story and write a new one.

In this episode, we explore:

• What self-limiting beliefs actually are (and where they come from)
• How childhood labels like “shy,” “quiet,” or “too much” still run our adult lives
• Naming your story so you can see it clearly and start to rewrite it
• The “mind gremlin” (aka Regina) and how she twists your thoughts
• Interrupting your fear spiral and building a staircase of tiny brave actions
• Going from autopilot to awareness and why that shift changes everything
• Using 10-second actions to gently push your comfort zone
• How micro choices in your routines, style, and self-care reshape your confidence
• Letting go of what no longer serves you and stepping into your bold, aligned self

Journal / reflection prompts:

• What labels or stories about yourself feel heavy or outdated right now?
• Is this belief actually true today… or just familiar?
• What’s one 10-second action you can take THIS WEEK to challenge that story?
• If you unsubscribed from that old belief, how would you show up differently?

Try one (or more!) of these 10-second actions:

Pause this episode and:

• Send the email you’ve been avoiding
• Make the phone call that scares you a little
• Hit “publish” on the post that feels more “you”
• Book the session, class, or conversation that moves you forward
• Then come back and tell us how it felt. 💬

Come hang out with Megan:

If this episode gave you a little nudge, let me know what self-limiting belief you’re ready to unsubscribe from and what tiny micro choice you’re making this week. Drop it in the comments so we can cheer you on and inspire each other.

First things first—don’t mind my gaze wandering aimlessly at the beginning of this episode (if you are watching on YouTube.) For a solid 2.5 minutes, I forgot where to look until my producer gently reminded me (ding!) and I was back in action. Consider it a real-time metaphor for how we all get a little lost sometimes until we’re reminded to come back to ourselves. 😅

In this episode of Taking Flight, we’re diving deep into the very real, very human experience of being seen—by others and by ourselves. We’re talking about the art of "numbing the nuances" in a positive, freeing way. From cringing at the sound of your own voice to analyzing your crows' feet in every photo, I unpack how we can stop overanalyzing the little things and start embracing all our beautifully imperfect, ever-evolving selves. You’ll hear real talk about letting go of perfection, rewriting your inner narrative, and fully showing up—crows’ feet, silly dance moves, weird lighting and all. If you’ve ever felt like the loudest critic in the room is the one in your own head, this episode is your permission slip to quiet the noise and step into your full, radiant self.

I dive into the idea that passion produces passion—and that we can create joy and energy in our lives by choosing to show up differently. From the quote, “My job is not fun—I’m a fun person,” we explore what it looks like to lead with our own spark and bring vibrancy to even the most mundane moments. Whether you’re feeling disconnected or just ready to tap back into your own fire, this episode is a loving reminder that you hold the power to make anything feel more alive.

After you listen, I’d love to know—what’s one way you can bring a little more fun, fire, or passion into your world this week? Tag me on Instagram or send a message and let’s celebrate how YOU show up and create your own spark. 🔥

We touch on perception of others (and ones self), body awareness, creating healthy habits, and so much more. So come along and step into your power and create some takeaways to really become the version of yourself you have been looking and yearning for. When we know better and more importantly, understand better...we do better. For ourselves, for others, and for the collective!

In this episode I dive into the idea of duality - being able to feel and experience more than one emotion, thought, etc. at the same time. Not only do we tap into what that means, but we also create conversation on how to become better at doing it to free up frustration, anxiety, and other negative emotions that don't serve us when felt long term. Dive in with me as I talk through how to expand your self awareness on how you perceive people, experiences, and life in general and start releasing what no longer serves you.

Talents and Gifts: Personal Journeys and Encouragement

Megan and Massiel discussed the importance of acknowledging and using one's own talents and gifts. Massiel shared her personal journey of realizing her worth and the simple nature of accepting and using her gifts. Megan asked Massiel for advice on encouraging others to try new things, suggesting that it depends on the person's personality. Massiel suggested a risk calculation and the idea of starting small, noting that initial discomfort doesn't necessarily mean one should stop, but rather, it might be a signal to take a break.

Empowerment and Identity: The two ladies discussed the importance of understanding individual modes of operation and how to move forward in one's own unique way. Massiel shared her motivation, which stemmed from a mission to empower girls and women, drawing from her personal experience growing up in an unsupportive environment and her belief in the power of self-empowerment.

Megan Holly concluded the conversation by emphasizing that individuals can have multiple identities and pursuits, such as being a parent and also cultivating other creative or worldly experiences.

Consistency is key to so much in life but how does it really affect us? This episode with Nicole McGrath helps to dive into what consistency, inner wisdom, and the power of self can achieve.

Impact of Past Experiences on Beliefs and Behaviors

How does our past relate to our future? Nicole emphasized the importance of self-awareness and understanding that many beliefs and habits are not necessarily one's own, but rather a product of past experiences. They also highlighted the need to address and potentially heal these past experiences to improve one's current life. The conversation concluded with a call to focus on the present and remember that life doesn't always have to be stressful or anxious.

Tapping Inner Wisdom for Life Guidance

A discussion surrounding the importance of tapping into one's inner wisdom to guide life decisions opened up. Nicole suggested methods such as observing thoughts and recognizing negative limiting thoughts as not representative of oneself. She also emphasized the role of feelings as guides, noting that uncomfortable feelings indicate a misalignment with oneself and can be released or healed. Nicole shared her personal practice of giving negative thoughts a name to distance herself from them. Megan appreciated this perspective, viewing it as a concrete way to separate oneself from negative thoughts.

Emotional Release: A Challenging Benefit

Megan and Nicole discussed the importance of acknowledging and addressing discomforting emotions instead of resisting or distracting oneself from them. Megan shared an example of how her husband was able to release his anxiety by articulating his thoughts and concerns. Nicole emphasized that societal pressure to avoid uncomfortable feelings often leads to resistance and suggested that releasing these emotions could help prevent them from escalating. They agreed that identifying and redirecting one's responses to discomforting emotions could be a challenging but beneficial process.

Conscious Choices for Personal Change

Megan and Nicole discussed the importance of making conscious choices to effect personal and professional change. Nicole shared her approach, which includes acknowledging and expressing feelings, and then choosing a different experience, thereby effectively changing her reality. They also touched on the difficulty of taking action, especially when one is inundated with information about self-improvement, and the importance of validation and habit-building in the process. 

Self-Trust and Small Changes for Personal Growth

Megan and Nicole discussed the power of self-trust and small changes in achieving personal growth. They emphasized the importance of focusing on one task at a time, celebrating small wins, and enjoying the present moment. They also touched on the idea of erasing societal programming that prevents people from trusting themselves. The conversation concluded with Nicole encouraging listeners to trust their inner guidance and take consistent action towards their goals, even when the journey is challenging.

In this episode, with guest Kristy Black of Kristy Black Creative dives in with me to talk about the magic of ourselves within out business and owning what truly makes us unique to find an ideal pathway for our life and livelihood.

Embracing Abundance and Positivity in Entrepreneurship

Megan and Kristy discussed the importance of abundance and positivity in entrepreneurship. They emphasized the need to find and embrace one's own "magic" and the value of seeing the potential for good in others. They also discussed the depth of branding and the idea that entrepreneurs often have deeper motivations driving their actions. Megan pointed out that many entrepreneurs are surprised by this aspect of branding. They also touched on the pressure to achieve certain levels of success and the negative impact it can have on self-perception. Kristy emphasized the importance of focusing on how one wants to feel as an entrepreneur, rather than solely focusing on outcomes and goals.

Entrepreneurship Challenges and Growth

Kristy and Megan, both experienced entrepreneurs, discussed the challenges and learning processes involved in entrepreneurship. They emphasized the importance of finding support systems, understanding oneself, and having realistic expectations. They also highlighted the necessity of trusting one's instincts and not treating any one solution as a silver bullet for success. The conversation focused on the importance of being honest about the difficulties of entrepreneurship, while also acknowledging the benefits and personal growth that come from the journey.

Finding Your Voice in Business

Kristy shared her journey of starting her business and the challenges she faced, including criticism from a mentorship group about her professional style. She struggled to find her voice and identity in her business, and it led her to attract clients who were not a good fit. However, she eventually realized the importance of being true to herself and overhauled her business approach. This change led her to exclusively work with dream clients for the past three years. Megan and Kristy discussed the difficulty of blending in and the importance of being oneself in business.

Businesses as Platforms for Positive Change

Kristy and Megan discussed the various ways to create positive change through businesses. Kristy highlighted the importance of understanding personal values and shared her own experiences of using her business as a platform for change, such as offering scholarship programs and hiring diverse team members. Megan emphasized that change doesn't have to be monetary and can be as simple as writing a letter.

What makes redesign more accessible is the concept of using what you already have! In our collaborative design process, we walk through what is working and what isn’t. When you need new items, I am intentional about what we add in order to bring a complete design together, working with your timeline and the amount you want to invest in your project. I like to shop secondhand and vintage to support our community and reduce waste, as well as shop local to support small businesses.

Key Takeaways

• Mindset is very powerful - studies show changing how you think about aging can add 7-8 healthy years to your lifespan.
• We need to dismantle ageism in society and media. Making fun of people for being old is socially acceptable when it shouldn't be.
• Intergenerational relationships are important to help reduce age segregation.
• Language matters - we need more positive language around aging. Terms like "elder" or "older adult" are preferred over "elderly" or "senior citizen".
• Planning for your older years is an act of self-love. Have conversations with loved ones about wishes and values.
• Research shows that simply reframing your mindset around aging starting at late as 50 can add 7-8 healthy years to your lifespan. This is as impactful as quitting smoking or increasing physical activity.
• Highlights the power of mindset and that we can shape our experience of aging.
• Ageism is socially acceptable - it's common in media and comedy to make fun of people for being old. This perpetuates negative stereotypes and prolongs improvement in how we view aging.
• We need to seek more intergenerational relationships and integration to help reduce ageism.
• Preferred terms are "older adult", "elder", "elderhood". Avoid language that groups all older adults together or makes blanket assumptions.
• Planning for your older years is an act of self-love. Have open conversations with loved ones about values, wishes, fears around aging and end-of-life.
• We will all face infirmity and death eventually. Making plans helps reduce burden on loved ones later on.

Managing Anxiety and Rediscovering Control in Mind, Body, and Energy Through Simple, Effective Outlets

Podcast Relaunch Celebration: Rediscovering Control In a heartfelt relaunch celebration in January 2024, Megan Holly expressed gratitude for the loyal listeners of their podcast, "Taking Flight." With a commitment to providing inspiration and a safe space twice a week, Megan outlined the podcast's mission as a platform for recalibration during life's challenges. The anticipation of exploring new directions in the upcoming season was also teased.

Managing Anxiety: Megan's Personal Strategies Opening up about their ongoing battle with anxiety, Megan shared personal insights into managing this pervasive challenge. Stressing that anxiety manifests in various forms, from excitement to overwhelm, Megan, while not a therapist, offered five unconventional yet effective strategies for maintaining calmness and confidence.

Gargling and Humming for Stress Relief Megan delved into the benefits of gargling and humming, practices believed to stimulate the vagus nerve and induce relaxation. Detailing their routine, Megan explained how incorporating deep breathing, gargling, and humming in the shower can serve as a preventative measure or countermeasure against stress, tension, and brain fog, emphasizing that no specific tune or sound is required.

Humming and Singing for Stress Relief The podcast explored the therapeutic potential of humming and singing in the shower to release stress and energize the body. While acknowledging a learning curve, Megan encouraged listeners to embrace this practice during moments of anxiety or stress, highlighting its long-term benefits once mastered.

Brain Dump Technique for Mind Clearing and Anxiety Management Megan underscored the importance of a daily brain dump to clear mental clutter. By jotting down tasks and reminders, Megan outlined how this practice aids in clearer thinking and better sleep. Additionally, they shared their use of a notebook for more extended brain dumps and setting alarms for crucial meetings, attributing these methods to enhanced anxiety management.

The ongoing effort to incorporate intentional movement into their routine was highlighted as a key aspect of mental health maintenance.

About Jess:

Hey I'm Jess! A counselor turned candle maker during the pandemic. While I still serve women to help them make small changes in their life that make them feel exponentially better, I also have created a beautiful business alongside my husband. Together we craft hand-poured soy candles out of our very small home in Minnesota. The message behind our entire company is creating safe, simple ways to connect to something you love (candles) and creating more self care, self awareness, and self love! After we went back to our businesses, we chose to continue making candles, because we created a beautiful family of raving fans and discovered we could help more people through charities we created with our candles. We have The Helping People Project, and a portion of our sales goes to helping people in need. The families that receive help are nominated by our customers, so it's a very intimate special process.

About Felicity - Felicity Nicole is an author, speaker, coach, and the creator and owner of She Is You, a brand for midlife women seeking transformation and healing through a community of togetherness. Felicity refers to this community as a sisterhood and her members as midlife warriors. She is a published author and her second book, Pieces of Me, is a memoir about her life growing up in a dysfunctional abusive family only to find herself married to an abusive husband as an adult. Her strength, courage, and resiliency pulls her out of a dead-end marriage which leads her to rebuilding her life from the ground up. Now, she's an author, speaker, mentor, and coach for other midlife women who have found themselves in similar situations. Her passion project, Sisterhood of Midlife Warriors, is a membership for women seeking healing in a group and making long-lasting friendships along the way. In her free time, she hunkers down with her family, plays the cello, gardens, and reads.

In addition, come get inspired by a chat about making strides with '1 minute miracles,'  jars of gratitude, and celebrating simple...things that I find to be such game changers for setting myself up for success. Lastly, how I believe writing can be so beautifully powerful as I share and read some old letters in my journal to unearth some transformation (vulnerable alert)! It's unreal what written words can convey and move you through. Ending with a few more tangible ways to create some momentum for yourself, your boundaries, your schedule, and feel powerful going through life's up's and downs.

Raise your hand if you have ever looked back to a vacation, party, or just a day in general and thought to yourself "I already forgot what I even did, said, felt." That feeling of life passing by and the hours on the clock just being whisked away. You are not alone. In this episode I talk about the fast paced lives we are living most of the time and little ways to help slow down time. Seems impossible, but I believe that if we have more intention and clarity, we can certainly have 'more time' in our days to soak in the beauty of our moments. Come take it slow and get your gears turning on how to live more intentionally with the most simple of ways. Take back control and leave the anxiety of life fleeting behind with small changes to how we approach our every day lives.

It can feel pretty heavy sometimes, the weight of the world, the to-do lists, the call for more...

We all have pressure in our lives - some is good, some is negative, many times it's how we stack ourselves up again it. In this episode, I meander through struggles of feeling bogged down by pressure in hopes of creating a collective of people working to alleviate the ongoing nonsense we subject ourselves to. We are all capable of releasing the hardships of what life's pressure's can do and finding a fresh new way of looking at how we set ourselves and our lives up. Jump in to give yourself some loving energy and care and make some conscious choices in finding better balance, self love, and vitality.

Dee Dee's journey began over 10 years ago. Her health was deteriorating, and after a year of diagnostic testing, I was diagnosed with severe gluten intolerance. At that time, she was also a functional alcoholic when it became apparent that she needed to make some seriously drastic changes in her life in order to move in a direction of health, happiness, and honoring herself and those that loved her. She felt the fear of the unknown and made the DECISION to create a new life. Change happens with the awareness that what you are doing is no longer working, and making the decision to break free from dysfunctional habits of any kind.

Dee Dee uses a holistic integrative method to inspire and create sustainable lifestyle changes that last. This is all unique to the individual, and creates lasting impact. “Health” is a Mind~Body~Soul Rhythm. Dee Dee now not only lives a more full, vibrant,healthy life but she also helps others do the same, no matter where they have come from in their walk of life. She offers a complimentary Discovery Session and would love the opportunity to get to hear your story and how you want to change it!
