On this week's episode, I had the amazing opportunity to have an intimate networking session with my good friend, Dax Bambrough.

Dax shares his story about how he got his career start in traditional advertising. He reminisces about his journey to find a career path that felt energizing and true to who he is. Through challenging leadership, mass layoffs, and adapting to changing responsibilities, Dax has created a consulting career that allows him to do what he loves best: problem-solving and building up the people and teams he's blessed to work with.

He shares his take on regret through speculation and that dwelling on past decisions can distract us from our growth and happiness overall. Dax suggests that we seek out the things that give us energy. When we focus on the actions that give us positive energy, we will eventually spend most of our days doing what we love.

I've learned so much from Dax and am grateful our paths crossed. Thank you for supporting him and my podcast in such a small way! I am thankful you are here. Xo, Amber

In this week's episode, I share my thoughts on traditional goal setting and why the framework may be failing you year after year.

I beg you to be hyper-self-compassionate this year, as life can bring difficulty and hardship. We should check in with our intuition and the universe to know "IF" we have the capacity for an expansion in 2025.

I deep dive into comparing and contrasting the S.M.A.R.T. goal-setting framework and the Law of Attraction and Manifestation and why leveraging the LOA&M can help you attract the life you want now. I also talk about how we can know if we are in alignment with our true selves and the universe and why it's important to flex this muscle to become the person we've always wanted to be.

Wishing you all peace and direction for the 2025 year! Thank you with all my heart for listening; it means the world. Xo, Amber

In this week's podcast episode, I had the honor of interviewing my good friend and network connection, Ginger. Ginger and I met this year at a networking event in our central city. I quickly became intrigued with Ginger after hearing she recently graduated with her master's in marketing! Ginger and I have quickly become close friends outside of work, and she has such a beautiful soul and spirit.

After her family discouraged her from getting a traditional college education, Ginger gave up her thriving business as a lash artist to pursue higher education. Ginger shares her journey to becoming a first-generation college student and why she chose a non-victim mentality. She does allow her previous experiences to hold her back from what feels authentic to her life now. Ginger also talks about adopting self-compassion with health and wellness as circumstances change. She's all for personal development but not to the detriment of her mental health.

I hope you enjoy this conversation with Ginger as much as I did! Feel free to connect with her on LinkedIn; she would love to chat more with you. Thank you for listening and supporting Ginger. It means the world to me! Xo, Amber
