Do you self-depricate or self-celebrate? Have a hard time taking compliments? Do you beat yourself up or have an inner mean girl?

Then listen up.

Oh my Goddess this episode is so JUICY! I am so fired up, so excited, to bring you this episode because it’s all about one of my very favorite things – bragging!

Yes, you read that right – I LOVE to celebrate myself, I love hearing other women celebrate themselves, so, I share why you should be bragging, too.

Women are taught from an incredibly young age – far before we have the processing skills to even realize it’s happening – that we need to swallow our opinions, hide our success, hate ourselves, and constantly compare what we have and do to everyone around us. Talk about a recipe for disaster and depression!

This is where bragging or self-celebrating comes in – it is the practice of shamelessly sharing the remarkable successes you are experiencing, no matter how big or small they are!

In this episode, I talk all about:

• All the reasons why you need to practice self-celebration and own your greatness – hint: there’s physiology and psychology science to it.
• The self-fulfilling prophecy you get stuck in, and how you can get out of the cycle.
• What is a Circle of Love, how to get one, and why you need one.
• What I’m celebrating about myself right now!
• The Hedonic Treadmill and how it is holding us back from enjoying our lives!

We are all constantly searching for more meaning in our lives, we want to leave a legacy. The legacy we create is how you live every day, moment by moment, in the many communities and Sisterhoods your heart calls home.

Sharing who you are with people you love is the best way to leave a lasting, beautiful legacy that people will talk about for generations.

Our guest today is so special because she is the embodiment of this concept. An immigrant from Jamaica who came to the States to grow her opportunity and make her many communities back home proud, she has a legacy anyone would be incredibly proud of.

In this episode of The PurposeGirl Podcast, I’m fortunate to be joined by Janet Autherine, the Founder of The Island Mindful Path to Transformation, and CEO of Autherine Publishing. She is the author of 4 books that are focused on empowering women and children, and her insights have been featured in national media, such as Forbes, Medium, and many highly-rated podcasts.

Janet shares with us how combining her hopeful and optimistic Jamaican roots with all she’s learnt along her mindfulness journey was key to find her very own way of shaping her legacy.

In this episode, Janet and I discuss the following:

• The incredible power of community and Sisterhood.
• How important and powerful it is to say the names of the women in our lineage when we speak of them.
• That there is so much power in valuing the things we are good at – and how that helps others around us.
• How we can use mindfulness to connect with who you really are.
• How to discover our Legacy and why our story and voice always matter.

You can also connect with Janet on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/JanetAutherineJ) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/janetautherine/) and (. Or you can check out her website: https://http://www.JanetAutherine.com.

Happiest Thanksgiving, my love. This week’s episode is all about one of my very favorite things: Gratitude. 2020 has been hard, but it’s taught all of us what’s important. My gratitude list is long this year – longer than it has been ever before.

So in this episode, I share My Grateful 8 (okay, it’s a lot more than just 8, but what can I say, I celebrate that I’m good at being grateful!), I provide you with the science on why gratitude is so good for us (and the lasting effects of it on our overall happiness), plus I share gratitude tools and games you can play right now to improve relationships and your life.

No matter who is around your Thanksgiving table this year – or if Thanksgiving is even a happy holiday at all in your home – we can all choose gratitude in our lives every day. I would love to hear about your Grateful 8, so please share that with me if you wish to.

In this episode I share:

• The people and things I’m most grateful for this year
• Personal stories that contributed to my deep gratitude
• The science of gratitude and how it has lasting impacts on your life
• Gratitude games you can play around the Thanksgiving table – even from a distance!
