“Will they like me? Am I saying the right thing? What are they going to think?? Am I good enough? They're obviously better ?!”

We can get SO caught up in feeling judged in everyday life. And these ladies were literallyyyyy being judged (respectfully) 👑

I had the joy of helping kick off the 73rd Iowa Dairy Princess Contest with a session on being your FAVORITE self.

Because when you care about something, it’s EASY to get wrapped up in who you think you need to be to succeed. And every single one of these ladies from across the state of Iowa wanted to succeed and be crowned the Iowa State Dairy Princess

We talked about showing up as someone YOU like being, looked at research, lightened the pressure and had some FUN, and my favorite part... no matter which way things go, what we can control of is that we can be proud of how WE showed up, never sacrificing or leaving ourselves BEHIND.

Fun fact: I competed for Iowa Dairy Princess myself! Didn’t win, but had such a fun experience!!

Getting invited back to pour into these ladies was very special :) 🐄💛 And so honored to be a small part of their experience. .... And we obviously, we had to get a little party pump in 🙌

Three years ago, I went through the West Des Moines Leadership Academy and loved it so much I just stayed 🙃

I graduated and joined the curriculum team! Now I get to help plan the sessions and experiences for the people going through it. And gosh, it is so fun and so rewarding 🙂

Also... when you own your own business and are an extrovert - you don’t exactly have coworkers anymore 😅 (except when my toddler (aka my manager and boss) is home or the people who I nearly make be my friends that I sit by at coffee shops 😉)

I LOVE my job and I love having people to brainstorm with, learn from, and just see in person 🤪

So getting to show up each month to help make these Leadership sessions meaningful and memorable, AND keep growing personally and professionally myself?! Bonus !

Really makes me feel like my FAVORITE self 🤌🏼✨

Here are a few of the amazing people who help make it happen (there are many more people behind the scenes, and grateful to connect with every single one 🙂 )

With that ... do something today your future self will thank you for. Live as your favorite self. Because you deserve it and you are freakin WORTH IT

My ~best self~ would’ve rescheduled all my meetings today... My FAVORITE self said, “It’s not that serious...” 🦆

Working mom + business owner + full term pregnant + sick toddler home from daycare = quite the Monday!!! 🥵

Thinking about it ... My “best self” would’ve convinced myself I couldn’t possibly balance this - that jt wasn’t professional to have my toddler popping into calls when he ran out of teddy grahams or when paw patrol got boring. That I should just reschedule everything!

Best self = is black and white, you can’t do both.

But my FAVORITE self?????!!

She knows she’s got it. The meetings I have today are fun, genuine, getting to know new people and clients, and planning for upcoming spring sessions. And they don’t require some ✨✨perfectly polished✨✨ version of me, just the real, energized, idea and passion filled version of me.

So today, my son Ricky joined my calls when paw patrol apparently got boring. And spoiler alert: every single person so far has been introduced to his favorite rubber ducks🦆(he’s a little extrovert like his mom)

Could I have rescheduled? Sure

Did I need to? Actually no, this is real life

And living as our FAVORITE SELF is realizing things don’t have to be as complicated as our best self makes them out to be 🤌🏼

Wrapped up my final leadership session before maternity leave!! 🤯💙 (wow this second time goes way faster when you're chasing a toddler)

Wrapped up yesterday with Master Builders of Iowa x Koester Construction Leadership Team, and MAN, what a way to finish this year 🙂 situational leadership, conflict, being next level curious, and of course favorite self mentality as the foundation 🤏🏼🤏🏼

So grateful for the organizations and people who have trusted me to be part of their growth this year! 💗

I'm starting sessions up again end of January and will be taking emails and meetings while on maternity leave (so please feel free to send em my way - you won't be bothering me at all 🙂 honestly .. it makes me feel like my favorite self when I get some "me time" to also pour into my work. I love what I do!)

A whole new season of life is comin' in hot 👶🏼💙 feeling very thankful!!

What does your FAVORITE SELF.. what do they think of?? Does it help you or hurt you???

Constantly trying to remind myself of the power of what we tell ourselves. I am NOT perfect at it and I'm constantly trying 🫰🏼

Proud of the life we've built AND so excited tackle all there is to get to where I want to get 🤩

EVERY person started the session with something they KNEW they were overthinking.. and walked out of that room turning dreams into plans 👏🏻🤩⚡️

60-minute session with Baker Group: Stop Overthinking, START DECIDING!

And MAN, it was a goodie!!! I'm fired up!

We can overthink ourselves into doing absolutely NOTHING. ANYONE RELATE?

Sharing a few of our top takeaways from a high energy, data backed session 🙂

1. When you have 70% of the information? MOVE. DECIDE. ACT.

You don't need 100% certainty to take your next step. In fact.. its impossible to have 100%. Make the choice when you have 70%, pivot along the way if you must, but ACT.

2. You don't need louder approval. You need deeper self-trust.

Are you asking other people for their experience and perspective? Or are you really asking for permission??Make sure you don't forget to ask YOURSELF

3. Make step one INCREDIBLY easy (so then step 2,3,4,5... keep rolling too)

Our brains love rewards and dopamine! Give yourself a quick win. If the first step feels too hard, make it smaller. And then smaller again.

Get the momentum rolling. Stop overthinking, and gosh darn, start DECIDING.

They left with so many wonderful things as their "takeout food" what they are going to be "snackin" on later (if you've done a session with me, you know that's how we wrap up 🙂 )

Now... GO MAKE MOVES! Stop overthinking, start deciding! The world needs what only you can bring!

OH, THE PLACES YOU’LL GO! 💛 Five years ago... we probably couldn’t have predicted EXACTLY where we’d be today. And five years from now? Honestly... it’s a TOSS UP of where we will ~exactly~ be (and I love vision workshops/planning) 😂

But we CAN control whether we’re building a life we’re proud of.

Not by having the whole thing figured out... But by focusing on the tiny stepping stones right in front of us - and making choices that help us feel more like our FAVORITE SELF.

That doesn’t always mean choosing the road that’s ~easier~ or more fun. Or makes the most sense to everyone else.

Sometimes it means asking ourselves " “Does this choice feel like ME?” instead of focusing on “Will everyone else like this choice?”

I had the opportunity to keynote the Iowa Association of Nursing Students conference this year around their theme, “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” and remind future nurses that they do NOT need their entire future figured out.

And instead we.. M.A.E (get it.. Mae We All)

🥁 March to the beat of your own drum - Know what makes YOU, you and don't leave yourself behind

🌀 Always give it a whirl - If something keeps pulling at you, get curious enough to take the next stepping stone!

🤝 Evaluate your circle - surround yourself with people who want to see you thrive as the favorite version of you (we listen to them when we need to face the music AND when we need words of support)

I LOVE getting to share this message with students at the beginning of their careers. But maybe the rest of us need the reminder, too :)

You don't have to know exactly where you'll be five years from now Just keep taking the next stepping stone toward a life that feels like your FAVORITE SELF 💛
