"The Leader Who Had No Title" by Robin Sharma is the book of the month for April! It is a quick and easy read with a lot of great inspiration. I just love how we really don't need to wait for a title to be a leader. We can build ourselves, and relationships, and serve those around us at whatever stage of life/career we are in!

We all have challenging experiences in our lives. I believe they come to us to make us into the person we are meant to be for ourselves and for the world. Sometimes in those experiences we become the victim, the thing is, is we don't have to stay the victim forever. We have the power to change our lives and move forward with the new found knowledge to better the world.

Hello there! Have you ever felt jealous toward someone or a situation? I have many times. Instead of letting that negative feeling put me in a bad mood or let that fester up more frustration I sat with it, and analyzed why I was having those feelings. Sometimes it was just pure envy, and I needed to remove myself from that, but more often than not, I was feeling jealous because my heart was telling me I needed to pursue something that I wasn't. Once I start taking consistent action towards things I once felt jealous about, I wasn't jealous anymore. Hear more of my thoughts in the short podcast episode!
Do you think being jealous can be a good thing?

Brandie Brown has been teaching Zumba and Yoga for years! This is her journey and tips and advice on going for your dreams, working through your fears and just going for it!
Chelsea met Brandie when she lived in Centerville, Iowa when shestarted going to her classes! This interview is very special to her because Brandie is the FIRST interview she ever recorded for Confidence in Business. Brandie is such a sweet, kind, genuine person and is such an inspiration and a role model. She is someone to look to for confidence in just going for it, and realizing that you can figure things out along the way.

This episode is the most raw one to date! I had a baby 3 weeks ago, and recorded this late and night with babies sleeping, but I'm okay with it!
This book talks about how it is okay to be vulnerable, how to work towards authenticity, and creating a wholehearted life.
I would love to know how you are being brave with your life and how are choosing to be authentic.

Have you found yourself not accomplishing anything or pursuing something because you feel it never will be perfect? I'm here to tell you to do your best, but DONE is always better than perfect. You have an important work to give the world, and it's okay that it is not perfect. We need what you have to offer no matter whether it is perfect or not (which perfect doesn't exist, so do your best and move on).

I wanted to leave you with a gentle reminder today that you are WORTH YOUR DREAMS AND YOU ARE WORTHY TO PURSUE THEM. Don't let negative talk, or doubts, from your thoughts or people around you stop you from pursing what is burning inside your soul. If it is good for the world, we need it! It doesn't matter how many others are doing what you are doing, YOU have a unique perspective to bring to it. Let us have it

This episode I tell a little story of how I needed to get out of my own head, and stop making things a bigger deal than they actually were. I went around my little town to try to build contacts and relationships and luckily I got out of my own head, but I was convinced, with no evidence, that everyone I talked to was going to be so against me and hate me for even talking to them. Can you relate? Listen to the episode and let me know on Instagram or our Facebook group how you get out of your own head to accomplish what really matters!

Do you have a dream, goal, or project you want to work on, but are afraid to tell people what you are up to? Are you getting stopped by fear, or the thoughts of what others might think of you if they found out what you were pursing? In this episode Chelsea talks about her experience of overcoming fear of what people MIGHT think, and owning her goals!
When we don't own our goals or dreams in spite of what others MIGHT say or think, we may start to lose confidence in ourselves, our worth, and not take action toward what we really want to do. It can be easier said than done, but as you start owning what you want within yourself, and being proud of that, you can start owning it outwardly as well.

I'm excited to introduce Kimberlynne Romney who is the creator and owner of Coraboo Clothing! Coraboo Clothing is a store on Etsy that is a place for no scratch mittens for your little ones, or your adult friends or family. Kim Romney is speaking with us today about her journey, her positive approach to negative feedback, and some tips she has learned and implemented to get seen on Etsy! The idea came up when her daughter needed to wear mittens to stop from scratching, but she hated the idea of not being able to see her sweet little hands. Don't think her inventory stops there, she has so many other unique items for sale as well as doing custom orders if needed!!
