Several years ago, the concept of "If it isn't a 'Hell yes!' then it's a No" was introduced - at least as far as we know - by Derek Sivers in his book Hell Yeah or No. Gael has read the book and thinks this idea is perhaps one that is better suited for business and commerce than for personal decisions. From Felicia's standpoint, while some things are that black and white, it doesn't quite resonate with me. By contrast, a video we ran across a video recently, talks about developing a "crush" on your decisions and seeing how that changes your approach to your life. Be it about a new idea, activity, or project - or even a person, approaching the options through the lens of possibly having a crush on it feels softer, lighter, and allows for the possibility for those little nudges and curiosities to grow into something more meaningful. And so today, we talk about how allowing yourself to follow the energy of something you are intrigued by, curious about, or attracted to, maybe a little or a lot, maybe a better choice than the Hell Yes/Hell no philosophy. Gael is on vacation next week, so our normal episode together will be replaced with an interview with Marelda Rodrigues, who is one of the speakers at the 2024 Massage & Spa Success Summit which is coming up in September. Marelda is a Grief Massage Therapist, Educator, and Wellness Coach at Marelda Rodrigues, Grief Massage and Wellness. She and Felicia will be talking about Developing Emotional Mastery.

In our last episode, we talked about being more mindful about the negative words we say to others and ourselves. While we both "fell off the wagon" a little bit in our intentionality on this practice, today we discuss a bit about how every day is ripe with opportunities for us to look at the way we think about and react to the situations and encounter. In regards to saying yes to ourselves, whether in doing new things or just doing the things we want through, we often put off or fail to do the things we really want to by getting in our own way through negative self talk or other excuses. If this sounds like you, you may want to consider asking yourself a few questions when you get into an internal tug-of-war: What are the good things that can come from doing this activity? How am I going to feel about myself tomorrow if I do this activity?What about if I don't do it?Is there a way I can do this activity and overcome or accommodate the factors I'm concerned about? Our goal is to say YES to ourselves more often while working to understand and grow through the things that previously held us back.

When you let go of electronic and mental distractions like we've talked about doing in the last two episodes, the idea is to make room for good things, right? Or at least things that are more rewarding than "doom-scrolling" and other less than mindful activities. But what do we do when what we notice with our newfound head-space is negative comments and complaints? And what if they aren't just about other things and people, but also ourselves? This week we're talking about some of our explorations since the last episode. (Gael tried some big new things including an awesome hike and using her new camper; I talk about some of my experiences with trying some new kinds of meditation and giving up alcohol for 31 days). Interestingly, when we change and try new things, it can trigger unexpected reactions in ourselves AND the others in our life. Some of this could include some negative comments from ourselves and others. So for us, it seems like a natural next "superpower" to explore is to cut out complaining. One thing we both think it is important to remember is that speaking up for yourself or providing necessary feedback is not the same as complaining!

In our last episode, we talked about giving up social media and electronics was easier for both of us than expected. We realized that we have been connected to it for different reasons and approached detaching from it in different ways. Letting go of it a little more than normal was a welcome relief for us both and we really enjoyed the space it gave us in our lives. Setting aside the electronics allowed us to prioritize, invest in, and say yes to ourselves more.

Welcome to the official SheVOLVE Prequel. In case you hadn't heard, From the Heart with Felicia & Gael is now SheVOLVE! Starting with this episode, our podcast is geared towards helping you discover and embrace your hidden superpowers! Why? Well with two milestone birthdays this year (Felicia - 55/Gael - 50) we are ready to do less, “be" more, and “she-volve” into their best selves ever. We know we aren't alone and want to take you along for the ride. Today we talk about why we decided to make this change and share details on our new weekly format and blog. Each week we will reveal a new challenge to uncover and explore our hidden super powers. Our first challenge is Creating Space By Disconnecting. It's a great first step to help declutter our minds and schedules in order to make space for more of who we are and what we want to do or be. In short, for the next 7 days, we will be dedicating at hour or more per day to turning off our electronics and focusing on other aspects of life we enjoy or feel called to focus on. We'll share our experiences during the challenge on our NEW website: www.Shevolve.blog. Whether you just follow along or do the challenges with us, we'd love your feedback, ideas and support. Please go check it out! We're also reading a book each month to help explore, discover, and embrace our hidden super powers and tools. The first one is The Passion Principles: 101 Ways to Express Your Creativity and Share It with the World by Bob Baker. Details on how to get the book and learn more about Bob in Podcast Resources.

How do you know when it's time to make a change? Sometimes life brings unexpected events which signal the need for one change or another in an instant. This could be something like a tire blowing out prompting you to get a new one. Or you get an exciting job offer and you realize you'll need to give notice at your current job to accept it. There's also the need for change that is not subtle, that slowly reveals itself to you through momentary thoughts and feelings that arise. You aren't exactly sure where these nudges are taking you, but you pay attention all the same until the path slowly reveals itself. The latter is what we both felt with this podcast, and so after a year, we are both proud of what we've done and excited to move in a new direction with the podcast. In this final episode, we talk about change and what we appreciate about From the Heart. Coming up on June 21st, we will share details and reveal more about our new name, focus and evolving format. We invite you to join us! Until then, go out there and be AMAZING as you show up and shine. From the heart, we love and appreciate you!

We are taking a moment to plan new, fun things for our podcast and are feeling "super-power-full" about how everything is evolving. While we are working on that today, we wanted to share our most popular episode so far. It fits so perfectly with our discussion about future episodes - we hope it resonates with you too! Enjoy and we will see you soon:-) Felicia & Gael Original Show Notes Are you willing to take the steps needed to become the person you say you want to be or the life you SAY you want to have? Are you willing to try something out and be willing to fail at it or hate it? Or would you prefer to not take the risk and always wonder what might have been? Today we are talking about facing those issues and others related to stepping into new worlds, vehicles and opportunities. Today we talk about the thoughts we've explored to move us through and beyond our comfort levels into experiences of higher energy. Changing our environment changes us and we are excited about the new worlds we are stepping into and surrounding ourselves with!

Ever feel like you are trying EVERYTHING you know how to do to get your business rolling and getting nowhere? You're making the calls, following up on the leads, but it feels like nothing is happening. We have both been there, "beating the bushes" and taking constant action to find clients and revenue. Though it can take a while, "doing stuff" is helpful and does create momentum. However, it often seems like the most effective actions - the ones that move us forward faster - are the ones we feel excited and inspired to do. Inspired or not, taking regular action will help you gain experience, information, and feedback. Believe in yourself, listen to your intuition, and trust that one thing will build on another, and that eventually get you where you want to go. What else we talked about...

Have you ever had a moment when you made a decision or plan to go in a new direction, but the Universe had other ideas and threw a wrench into your plans? When this happens, it can be easy to let whatever sidetracks you in the moment completely derail you. However, if we are able to pause, reflect and re-evaluate, we sometimes can see these challenges as opportunities to refine our plans, redefine our desired outcomes, and/or re-commit to our vision with even greater gusto.

It's easy to wax poetic about the goals we want to achieve, but much harder to take steps to turn those dreams into reality. Often, the most important steps we can take are related to letting go of old or outdated roles, ideas, possessions or relationships. Though difficult, the truth is that we must make space for new things by letting go of what no longer serves us. Saying goodbye to property, past beliefs or people is not easy. But similar to something Gael's friend said, doing so is an act of faith that something else even better is just waiting for you to make enough space for it to show up in your life. Today we share ideas about how to let go and clear the path for more of what we want to attract, acquire and accomplish.

Today's title may seem give the impression that getting older is a negative thing and that we inflicting ageism on ourselves. However, today's topic is more focused on the positives of getting older and how it frees us to let go the things that held us down or back when we were younger. In other words, "acting our age" may simply mean: That you know how to be accept yourself for who and where you are. That you choose to step into and honor the self-knowledge and experience you've gained. That it's time to use all of that and more to live and love your best life ever right now.
