Jill is newly and happily engaged, but her relationship hasn’t always been perfect. When it came time to decide to break-up or take the next step in the relationship, Jill and Keith made the choice to start working on building something even better than before. Today, Jill is sharing the 4 main changes she and Keith have been practicing that have made their relationship deeper. It takes some practice and might seem counterintuitive, but when you act in love, you feel more in love, and isn’t more love always better?

Sometimes we’d like to wave a magic wand and be miraculously healed from all our traumas and pain. Unfortunately for us (and you) we live in the real world where our pains demand to be felt and there’s not much we can do but to wait it out. There is one bright spot: just like in business growth, change happens gradually… gradually… gradually… and then all at once! So maybe we can’t wave a magic wand to get rid of all of our pains and be healed suddenly, but we can show up daily and keep trying new things until—all of a sudden—we feel better. Healing is possible if you keep looking for it.

We’ve finally arrived at “mid-life” and if there were ever a time to have a crisis, it’s now. It’s easy to get swept up in the fast pace of our lives and forget to ask ourselves what we really want, but there’s a lot of courage in knowing exactly what you want and being willing to ask for it. Nothing in life is guaranteed—not even life itself—so let’s enjoy it which we can, right Bestie?

No one loves feeling like an Impostor, but there are some people who probably should feel like one. There’s utility in Impostor Syndrome—if you’re feeling it, is it possible that you actually aren’t that good yet? Do you actually struggle with your money mindset, or should you just not be charging that much for your services yet? Get a few more reps in and really start walking your walk, and then we can talk about Impostor Syndrome.

Everyone knows that if you dare to have a presence on the internet, you have to stay the same forever. Duh. Changing your mind and evolving as a person is a luxury allowed only for others and not for you! And while we’re certainly being facetious right now, there are many people who fully believe that, even if just subconsciously. As entrepreneurs with personal brands, we’ve faced pushback over the years when we start acting differently to the way we’ve “always” been. But look, Besties, we want this to be a long and meaningful friendship with you, so we hope you can accept us as we evolve over time.

Even for people who know everything there is to know about having a healthy mindset need to check themselves at some point. Sometimes, it’s exactly the people that “know better” that need help acting right, not just thinking right. Mindset starts with awareness, but awareness alone isn’t enough. Accountability, emotional regulation, and self-compassion are all just as important when you need to Mindset yourself.

This podcast grew out of some really shitty times in our lives, and since then we’ve learned a lot about how to deal with all that shittiness, especially when that shittiness is inescapable. No one wants to suffer, but the hard times happen and we feel better prepared to deal with them now. In the last episode, Danny J shared a bit about how she’s in a tough place right now, so today she wanted to share a little about how she’s sitting in the discomfort and making it through as best she can. It’s never a fun time to be caught in the messy middle, but we trust ourselves enough to know that we can always make it through to the other side.
