My week = MADE. Below is exactly why I wrote #breathemamabreathe. For @carissajordian. For myself. For all the moms out there. The messiness of motherhood can feel beautiful. . #repost @carissajordian: Noun - a mental state achieved by focusing one’s awareness on the present moment. 🌺 One day you wake up at 4am feeling like you’re going into labor, the next your baby girl is turning 3. I sat on the couch tonight writing in my journal and my heart broke a little bit because for 3 years I prayed many of those nights and days away. I didn’t know how to handle my emotions. I wanted it all to end and I wanted to be 18 and out of my house. That’s me being real with you. And I know I’m not alone. . . It wasn’t until a month ago when I became serious about journaling and truly understanding what it means to be mindful and meditate that I learned to find an inner peace I never thought I could find. It’s hard being a mom to 2 strong-willed girls. It’s hard being a working mom. It’s hard doing this along most of the time because we are so far from family and my husband works.... a lot. It’s even harder looking back and realizing what I realized tonight. . . Hard days don’t last. Hard seasons are inevitable but they have to end at some point. Practicing mindfulness is the only way I’ve gotten through this. Maybe you’re living life like I was and you’re not sure where to start? Hop on over to amazon, snag this book and a journal. I promise, it’s going to be worth it.
Wonderful to spend the morning with the amazing women of BW NICE - Lehigh Valley, PA Chapter, hear Rita Guthrie's insightful marketing tips, and witness a substantial fundraising gift handed over to Third Street Alliance for Women & Children. 💜 @bwnicellc @thirdstreetalliance ·⠀ ·⠀ ·⠀ ·⠀ ·⠀ #womenmakingadifference #womeninbusiness #lehighvalley #community #WomensEmpowerment #EmpoweredMama #femaleleadership #womeninbusiness #womensupportingwomen #igoftheday #femaleleaders #empowerment #empoweredwomen #womenleaders #lehighvalley #bwnice #bethlehempa #education #charity #networking
As we move closer to Breathe, Empower, Achieve's official publication date, my publisher works hard to connect with empowered women of influence who might be willing to take the time to read and endorse my book. Some graciously agree, some do not respond at all, while others bow out politely. @tdufu, author of the fantastic book Drop the Ball falls into the last category: . . "I wanted to personally write back to express gratitude to Shonda for her commitment to advancing women. I have no doubt that her approach and this book will make a difference in women's lives. I'm knee deep closing a round of capital for The Cru and we've just launched our next application round so it's insane right now. I have to #droptheball on this request. Wishing you all the best on the book launch." . . Tiffany Dufu clearly walks the talk. This, my friends, is how to say NO with class and integrity. How can you not admire that?
Just returned from a mother-daughter trip to Spain and France with my 17yo who will be leaving for college in just a few short months. So grateful for the time together, the adventures, the lessons, the memories. Nothing like travel to stretch ourselves our of our comfort zone, leaving us with a sense of wonder and empowerment. ✨ #motherdaughter #travelbuddy
So excited and proud to put this baby out into the world! Way too many of us women hold ourselves back in life—out of fear or lack of self-confidence, because we are constantly putting out fires and stressed to the max, or because we are overwhelmed with where to begin. Armed with these 50 quick mindful breaks, we can find calm, boost our self-confidence, set manageable goals, and create a healthy work/life balance—all while reaching for the stars. . Breathe, Empower, Achieve is available for pre-order today. Be sure to save your receipt—free pre-order bonuses coming your way soon! Stay tuned! 💜
Check out my new blog post featuring @corythomsen a certified, professional Co-Active coach and spiritual mentor. After almost two decades in Big 4 public accounting, she experienced an internal war of anxiety between career and motherhood, and then a tragic loss invited her to explore what it means to be human. She now coaches others on releasing their own self-limiting blocks to freedom, fulfillment, and joy. She lives in Katy, Texas alongside her husband of eighteen years, their two kids, dog and guinea pig. . . Once again, I am happy to bring you monthly interviews with empowered women I admire in hopes that they inspire you as well. Would love to hear your feedback on this interview series...!
