22 | Word Of The Day With Andrea Crisp

WITH ANDREA CRISP

In This Episode:

'The word you choose for the year will set your course for what is to come.' 

If you could choose one word to encapsulate what you desire for this coming year what would it be? Love, hope, creativity, momentum, financial freedom? In this minisode, I share with you why I decided to choose a word for the year and how that word continues to impact my decision making throughout the course of a year. 

Choosing one word to be your overarching theme will likely emerge from what you are hoping to see in every area of your life. You may want to approach finding your word by what your heart is telling you, or perhaps you want to be more practical and use it to set goals. If you choose the latter then ask yourself the following question. What do you want to see happen in your career, relationships, finances, physical health, emotional and spiritual health and recreation?

Are you ready to get crystal clear on your unique vision and purpose so that you can take your dream to the next level? In this three hour coaching intensive, we will identify what has been holding you back, so that you can break free from your limiting beliefs. This three-hour coaching intensive is designed to help you create a strategy that you can implement immediately. By the end of our time together you will be empowered to take massive action.

19 | Vision For Your Future

WITH ANDREA CRISP

About This Podcast:

The biggest reason that we are unable to accomplish our goals is lack of vision. Since what we focus on grows, it's imperative that we have a clear sense of where we are going. 

Don’t focus on what is, focus on what can be. Naveen Jain

This is the second episode in a three-part series on goal setting for 2018. Maybe you have felt really confused about how to set goals (and achieve them). I'm going to take the confusion out of the goal-setting process by giving you a three-step plan to help you be intentional about your goals for the new year. 

Step One: Make Your Priorities Matter

One way to do this is to ask yourself the following questions:

1. Who do you hope to inspire this year?

2. How can you live your life intentionally?

3. What kind of impact do you desire to have on your family & community this year?

Step Two: Determine What You Value

Determine what you value. If you already know this then you are a step ahead of the game. Start with your top five values and then you may want to narrow it down to your top three.  

What you value, you will prioritize. Setting goals that align themselves with your personal values, will be key to being intentional, impactful and inspirational with your goals this coming year. Not only will your values determine the standard to which you live, but also what you expect from others. Here is where the rubber meets the road (so to speak). Which items on the above list are currently holding you back from what you really need to accomplish?

Step Three: Set Intentional Goals

This is the step where you can be intentional about crafting exactly what you want out of the next 12 months. Write down where you would like to see growth in the area’s I just mentioned. Once you have a sense of what you want, you are likely to see a theme emerge. This will be a big indicator of what you may want to prioritize when moving forward. 

• Career

• Financial

• Relationships

• Emotional & Spiritual Health

• Physical Health

• Living Arrangements

• Recreation

Write down where you would like to see growth in the area’s I just mentioned. Once you have a sense of what you want, you are likely to see a theme emerge. This will be a big indicator of what you may want to prioritize when moving forward.

18 | Taking A Look Back

WITH ANDREA CRISP

About This Podcast:

Often the one thing we overlook when we are dreaming and planning for the future is being aware of how the past has played a significant role in where we are today. There is a significant benefit of looking back on what has worked and what has not in order to set the tone for what is ahead. And as the year comes to a close in less than 2 months, it is the perfect season to set aside time to be intentional about what you want out of 2018.

This episode is the first of a three-part series on goal setting for 2018. We start right at the beginning -- looking back at the year that has just passed. I speak candidly about what worked for me and what did not and the process I use to set goals moving forward.

To get started on the process, carve out some time for yourself to reflect on the past year and ask yourself the following questions:

1) What have your experiences this year taught you about yourself?

2)What did you experience this year that you would rather not repeat?

3) What were the top 3 greatest things to happen to you?

17 | Courage Found Me

WITH TANIA KOLESNIK

About This Episode:

'It’s part of my biggest blessing. Courage found me on my knees in the dark on the worst day. Courage can only help you flourish if you rid yourself of your ego or any kind negative self-talk that would tell you that you can't do it. Depression does that for you. It takes almost everything so once you have nothing, courage helps you rebuild.'

Tania Kolesnik proudly lives in Prince Edward County, Ontario where she un-schools her two children, Henri & Magnolia. She owns & operates County Collective, a collaborative space featuring a pop-up shop & soon to be vacation rental in the heart of beautiful Bloomfield, PEC. Tania has been blogging for just over 6 years & her feed is full of her strong messages highlighting the importance of mental health, body positivity & all around women’s empowerment.

With a zest for self-love & abundant personal growth, Tania is a unique voice who doesn’t shy away from embracing challenges while applying what she’s learned to be fearless in her creative endeavours. She, alongside her husband Dustin, are true entrepreneurs who dare to live life unconventionally with their family, gratitude & a push to inspire others at the core of what they do. They’re currently working hard to expand their business with many new projects in the work & are looking forward to seeing what the next few years have in store for their family. 

In this episode, Tania and I chat about the struggle she faced after the birth of her two children and how depression became the catalyst to leaving the city for a more peaceful life in Prince Edward County.

About This Podcast:

In this BONUS episode of The Couragecast, I decided that it was time that I took a brave step and pressed record with no notes and no preparation to chat about the Live Brave Challenge.
