Today’s affirmation is: I forgive myself.
As I’m recording this it’s the last few hours on the last day of the year. For many of us, this year has been A LOT. It came with some high highs and some really low lows. And when things go bad, the tendency is to treat yourself badly, too. We talk down to ourselves. We bring up past failures. Sometimes, we can be downright mean. It has to stop. It’s time to forgive…not them, you.
In this episode, I'll share an exercise to help you forgive yourself. Grab a piece of paper and a pen or have your phone handy. After listening, please rate the episode, leave comments and share. And if you’d like to show your support or learn from me in other ways, please visit linktr.ee/inspiredmedia1. Until next time, have a great day and an amazing new year.

I’ve been hearing two loud but different messages on how you should approach the month. One is to Finish Strong. Buckle down the last few weeks of the year. Do whatever you can to make holiday sales.
The second message is to Finish Light. Rather than attempt to finish the year strong, do as little work as possible. Set your business aside for a bit.
Not sure which of these you should choose? Listen to find out my suggestion. I even share a short exercise to help.

Today's affirmation is: I embrace guilt-free rest.
Do you know how to rest? I don’t mean when you stop working on one project in favor of another or forego client work to wash the dishes. I mean true, relaxed body, guilt-free rest.
It’s okay if you don’t. Not many of us entrepreneurs do.
There’s this pressure to jump right back in no matter what's going on in your personal life. It's a silent fear that if we take time off from school or work or our business we’ll never be able to recover.
We're tired but guilty.
1 in 3 Americans feels bad about taking time for themselves, even though 67 percent desperately want more of it (2019 Kelton Global).
Somewhere along the way we started thinking that leisure time is not time well spent. Let's reframe that. Embrace guilt-free rest.

Remember, the better the sleep, the more refreshed you’ll be when you wake up.

You’d love to work with them, and they seem excited to move forward with you, too. “So,” they start, “I really need what you offer. It’s just what I’ve been looking for.
