I'm your host, Karen Baldridge, and I'm thrilled to kick off this season with a deep reflection on the transformative journey of 2023 and the insights gained as we enter the new year. In today's episode, we'll explore the profound shifts, personal growth, and the wisdom gained during a year of stillness and introspection. Join me as we delve into the nuances of inspired action, the impact of energy on reality, and the importance of aligning with your unique purpose.
*Big Ideas:*
1. **The Energetic Influence of 2023:**   - 2023 was a year of stillness and introspection, as indicated by various spiritual and astrological insights.   - The significance of pausing, reflecting on one's current state, and considering the direction for personal growth.
2. **Navigating Ego-Driven Action:**   - The challenge of distinguishing between inspired action and ego-driven action.   - The realization that forcing action without alignment with one's purpose can lead to resistance and struggle.
3. **Navigating Loss and Transition:**   - Personal experiences, including the loss of a loved one, brought about significant shifts in priorities and energy.   - The impact of external events on the ability to focus and invest energy in meaningful ways.
4. **Recognizing Energetic Alignment:**   - The importance of flow and alignment in determining the appropriateness of a particular action.   - Observations on how ease and excitement accompany actions that are in energetic alignment.
5. **Lessons from Emotional Chaos:**   - Uncovering deeper emotions and insecurities during periods of stillness.   - The body's role in keeping score of unresolved emotions and the necessity of addressing them for holistic well-being.
6. **Transitioning to Feminine Energy:**   - The power of embracing receptive and feminine energy after periods of intense action.   - Allowing oneself to "be" and engaging in self-care, information gathering, and personal projects.
7. **Overcoming Programmed Beliefs:**   - The impact of societal, familial, and personal programming on one's beliefs and realities.   - The necessity of examining and challenging programmed beliefs to create a more authentic reality.
8. **Shift in Thought Patterns:**   - The importance of language and thoughts in shaping one's reality.   - Recognizing and changing negative thought patterns to align with a more positive and empowering reality.
 
BEST QUOTES!
1. "There were so many huge things that came out of 2023 for me personally. I don't know about you, but I know that a lot of people who follow horoscopes or things like that... knew this was going to be a year of stillness, introspection, and reflection."
2. "When you start acting on an idea that maybe isn't at your highest purpose, or isn't going to bring about the highest level of purpose that you were meant to on this earth, then all of a sudden, things stop flowing."
3. "It was going to be one of those years where there was going to be a great deal of pausing and reflecting as to where you are now and where you want to go instead of action, action, action."
4. "If it doesn't flow, let it go. If something is not supposed to happen, all of a sudden, it will feel like you are walking through cement. It gets hard."
5. "When something is not supposed to happen, all of a sudden, it will feel like you are walking through cement. It gets hard. It's like an uphill battle, and it's a different kind of hard."
6. "Trust the process, meaning that you have done the work when it was appropriate to do the work. Inspired action is when it flows through you like a download, not just coming from something that existed before."
7. "Your thoughts, feelings, and words—they're like a whole cohesive system. If you aren't absolutely vigilant about changing your thoughts and recognizing programming when you see it, all the things that you are programmed with, you will attract everyone else's beliefs."
8. "Language doesn't just describe reality, it creates the reality that it describes. Your words and your thoughts become things."
9. "You don't survive the game of life because everybody has to meet their end. It's adventure versus preventing disaster. If you believe that all things work out for you, everything is meant for you and will not happen to you, your decisions will change."
Feel free to use these quotes to create a catchy title for the podcast episode or to highlight key points in your promotional materials.
*Conclusion:*
As we step into 2024, the focus shifts towards inspired action and navigating the energetic currents of this new season. Join me in the next episode as we explore the concept of adventure, the power of beliefs, and the influence of language on creating a reality filled with purpose and fulfillment. Until then, may this reflection on 2023 inspire you on your own journey of growth and transformation.

Meditation For Intention Setting For The New Year

🎙️ **Podcast Episode Notes: Navigating 2024 with Intention**
In today's special episode, we delve into the transformative practice of setting intentions for the new year through a short, guided meditation. Why is this process so crucial? Because life isn't a random voyage; it's a deliberate journey that requires intentional navigation.
**Key Insights:**
1. **Purposeful Navigation:** Life is akin to a vast ocean, and each one of us is on a ship setting sail into the unknown. Without a charted course, we may encounter moments of serendipity, but we risk drifting without direction. Setting intentions is like plotting a course, ensuring our ship has a destination, and increasing the likelihood of reaching it.
2. **Clearing the Fog:** Intentions act as our compass, cutting through the fog of uncertainty. When we lack clarity on what we want and where we're headed, we leave our journey to chance. The intentional setting of aspirations and dreams acts as a guiding light, dispelling ambiguity and providing a clear path forward.
3. **Feeling Good vs. Being Good:** It's easy to fall into the trap of wanting to feel good without a clear understanding of what will genuinely bring joy and fulfillment. The meditation emphasizes the importance of getting crystal clear on personal desires, hopes, and dreams, steering away from superficial desires that only offer temporary satisfaction.
4. **Charting Your Destiny:** Much like a ship needs a destination, our lives need intentional goals. Without them, we may encounter both favorable and unfavorable winds, but the lack of direction may leave us feeling lost at sea. Intention-setting provides a roadmap, allowing us to navigate towards the outcomes we genuinely desire.
5. **The Power of Clarity:** The meditation guides listeners through a process of gaining clarity on personal aspirations, both professionally and personally. By intentionally focusing on what brings true joy and aligns with one's values, the path forward becomes clearer, empowering individuals to make decisions in alignment with their goals.
**Call to Action:**
Embark on this intentional journey with the provided meditation snippet. Get clear on what you want to call into your life, both personally and professionally. Set sail with purpose, charting a course that aligns with your dreams and aspirations.
Remember, life is a journey that requires intentional navigation. Don't leave your path to chance; set your intentions and navigate towards the destination you envision.
Tune in to the full episode for a guided meditation experience and insights on the transformative power of intentional living. Let's chart our destinies together! 🌌✨ #IntentionSetting #NavigateWithPurpose #NewYearIntentions

She discusses her book, "From Zero to Sales Hero," and details the evolution of her business, which she started as a side hustle in 2014, eventually transitioning to full-time entrepreneurship two years ago.
One key aspect of Amy's approach is the Habit Finder assessment, which helps individuals identify thought patterns affecting their success. She also highlights her upcoming 10-week virtual course, "The Best Version of You: Success Habits Breakthrough," starting on January 15th. The course covers six habits crucial for success, including self-discipline, self-confidence, and goal setting.

Success Has a Blueprint...with Tim Kight, Founder CEO of Focus 3 Leadership Firm

🚀 Just had an insightful podcast conversation with Tim Kight, New York Times Bestseller Contributor, Featured in WSJ, ESPN and other publications, and Founder/CEO of Focus 3, on achieving peace and success in life. It was everything I hoped it would be. He is a fountain of quick hitting wisdom and integrity and the reason I chose to change paths into corporate coaching and Personal Leadership Accountability emphasis!
Tim's wisdom is built on his five guiding principles, his "5 Whys," which can transform your approach to life and work:
1️⃣ "Honor God."
2️⃣ "Love my family."
3️⃣ "Master my craft."
4️⃣ "Be a good friend."
5️⃣ "Contribute to my community."
SUCCESS HAS A BLUEPRINT….
💡 Tim emphasizes that bringing your "why" to your work, rather than seeking it solely from your job, is key to finding fulfillment.
🌟 Pursuit of Peace: We all seek peace, but it's not circumstantial; it's a mindset and resilience in the face of life's challenges.
🌪 Embracing Life's Messiness: Life is messy and unpredictable. Courage and accountability are needed to navigate its challenges.
💪 The Power of Mindset: Your attitude is a choice, and it's vital for overcoming adversity.
🌟 Resilience and Grit: Challenges are opportunities for growth, not roadblocks.
(Side note: Tim is a living embodiment of this principle as he navigates life with cancer and still finds purpose and fulfillment in everyday despite his circumstances.
“Cancer will determine when I die. It will not decide how I live. That's my choice.”
💬 "Life is messy, and there are people in situations that need to be challenged."
💬 "Your attitude is something you choose. It's not something that happens to you."
💬 "The key to peace, no matter how bad a circumstance may be, is to make sure you're focused on the right things."
💬 "A negative attitude is a self-imposed prison cell. The lock is on the inside of the door, and you have the key."
💬 "The obstacles and challenges that we face in life, they're not there to stop us. They're there to test us, to strengthen us, to make us better."
Tim's 5 "whys" underscore the importance of aligning your values with your life & goals and bringing purpose to both. Listen to the full podcast for more wisdom on crafting your path to success. 🎙️ #Success #Mindset #Resilience #Leadership #TimKight #focus3 #e+r=o

🌟 Rediscovering Happiness 🌟
Hey friends,
I wanted to share a little piece of my journey with you today. Have you ever felt like life was on autopilot? Like you were just going through the motions, day after day, without really feeling anything - not happy, not sad, just... numb? 🙁
That was me for a while, lost in the shuffle of motherhood, always putting everyone else first and forgetting what it meant to take care of myself. The empty nest phase hit hard, and I found myself not even knowing what I liked to eat or how to spend my time now that the kids were off to their own adventures.
But here's the thing - I didn't want to stay stuck in that "in-between" place forever. I craved happiness, passion, and a sense of purpose that went beyond just existing. And so, I embarked on a journey to rediscover myself, to reclaim the things that brought joy to my life, and to embrace the uncertainty of change.
I've started a podcast, [Podcast Name], where I share my story and connect with others who have experienced this same kind of emptiness and confusion. Together, we're exploring how to find our way back to happiness, one step at a time.
If you've ever felt lost or numb, if you're navigating the challenges of empty nesting or embarking on a new career path, or if you're simply on a quest to rediscover your true self, I invite you to join me on this transformative journey. Let's support each other, share our stories, and learn how to be happy again. 💪❤️

53. Beauty Industry to Podcast Entrepreneur: A Journey of Authenticity and Growth with Jess Burgio

I'm so happy to have Jess Burgio, hailing from San Diego, sharing her inspiring journey on this episode of "Inspired Action Life" podcast. As the host of the "Unscripted" podcast and co-founder of Media Unscripted, a podcast talent agency, Jess brings a wealth of experience and insight to the conversation.
She is not only beautiful (she knows beauty...she pivoted from the beauty industry into full time podcasting!) She is an author, she is wise, driven & AUTHENTIC as they come. This is a real talk conversation! The discussion delves into Jess's transformation from a successful hairdresser and salon owner to her current role in podcasting and entrepreneurship. Her story underscores the significance of recognizing inherent talents and leveraging them for a new career trajectory. The conversation explores her career evolution from the beauty industry to the fitness sector and ultimately to the dynamic world of podcasting.
An overarching theme is the power of curiosity and seizing opportunities, even when they require reaching out to influential figures. Jess's connection with Lori Harder serves as a prime example. Her journey emphasizes the profound impact of embracing change, finding one's voice, and embracing mentorship and personal development.
Jess's narrative shines a light on her journey navigating professional shifts to create a fulfilling and impactful career. The episode encapsulates her journey, from pivotal moments of self-discovery to strategic decision-making, culminating in her role as a podcast agency owner. Jess's story stands as a testament to the rewards of embracing change and recognizing one's unique strengths, ultimately leading to meaningful personal and professional growth.
"Knowing that you are capable of holding space, being a good listener, maybe being the person people turn to for a specific... those are the things you might want to lean into as your gifts."
"Being curious and being open... when an opportunity presents itself, I do ask myself, is this an opportunity or a distraction? And in those cases, it was always an opportunity."
3. "Sometimes we think things are going to be so much harder than they are or that like who am I to ask for this?
"I think being curious and being open and being like one of those people that when an opportunity presents itself... That's my going right."
"We take what we call these like soft skills for granted because they're just part of who we are... or it's maybe just what you do. And so you don't realize that these traits and these things actually can equate to a future business that you might want to start or have."

"Podcasting felt very similar to trading time for money, as it did with doing a haircut. I realized I don't have to be stuck to a chair at the salon, but now my *** is stuck to a seat in my office in front of a computer."
"Podcasting is an opportunity to connect your voice with your brand. It's not just about putting out content; it's about establishing yourself as a thought leader and driving traffic to your episodes."
"Embrace change, step out of your comfort zone, and recognize the transferable skills that can lead to success in unexpected areas."
