Pour yourself a cup of coffee, tea, glass of wine

Pour yourself a cup of coffee, tea, glass of wine or a cocktail and let’s have a quick connect.

There’s a lovely rush in our heart when we feel understood.

When we feel accepted.

When we feel respected.

When we feel loved.

There’s an even bigger rush when this understanding, acceptance, respect and love comes from within.

THE most important place to find understanding, acceptance, respect and love is from within.

Give yourself the gifts above from the inside out.

Cheers to you!

Hugs,
AmyK

Hey, there!

It’s truly quintessential summer around here.

Early am walks. [to avoid the high afternoon heat]

Popsicles in the freezer.

Lots of work, but a quieter inbox.

Friends posting vacay pics.

And… please stay safe! There’s a lot happening right now that’s not quintessential summer and flat out tragic.

Sending love, strength and heart-full hugs to those fighting fire, floods and Covid.

Boundaries create order. They protect us. They d

Boundaries create order.

They protect us.

They define and promote our identity.

They keep our dignity intact.

Boundaries are a highly effective communication skill, and they stem from and fuel a strong sense of self-worth.

Ineffective communication of our boundaries leads to: loss of control and order which increases distractions & chaos.

Ineffective boundary setting may also lead to increased lack of self-respect, and increased likelihood for unmet goals, depression, anxiety, stress and unhealthy relationships.

Setting boundaries and sticking to them – at its core – is a reflection of how much we love and respect ourselves.

Agree?

Humans desire to belong. To be included. We love getting the invite.

And we really dislike being excluded.

Whether you’re 4, 44 or 94 when you feel “left out” it hurts.

The next time you can invite someone to the call, to the table, to the event, or the next time you can affirm someone’s importance in your life, take the opportunity to do so.

A small gesture of inclusion can lighten & brighten someone else’s path.

Agree?

Quick tip on planning your future success.

Forecast it!

Wait! This is not trite. This is all about consciously focusing on the results we seek.

Too often we think about dire outcomes. We get all stressed out about the scenarios we wish to avoid. We’re wired to worry. I get it, BUT, doom and gloom thinking slows us down and prevents us from getting more of what we actually want.

When we forecast successful results, when we channel our energy into a vision/outcome that we do want, we move toward it – faster!

After all we’ve been through these past eighteen months, I’m calling for a sunshine, high-vibe state of mind!

Hugs,
AmyK

A wise person once said, “If someone throws a fit because you set boundaries, it’s just more evidence the boundary is needed.”

Boundaries reflect your rights. If you’re not sure exactly what constitutes a boundary, begin by asking yourself what you consider your rights to be.

For example, you have the right to alone time. You have the right to return that email later. You have the right to not be insulted or bullied. You have the right to decline the invitation, take a pass, ask for your needs to be met, to be treated with dignity, to decide what to do with your body, and say “yes” to something that lights you up.

Need help with communicating your rights?

Boundaries are like the porridge in Goldilocks and

Boundaries are like the porridge in Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

They can be too rigid, too porous or just right, as in healthy.

Boundaries that are too rigid are often demonstrated by isolation and independence, not asking for help, zero flexibility, or having the attitude, “my way is the only way.”

Boundaries that are too porous are often demonstrated as allowing abusive behavior, oversharing personal information, people-pleasing at your own expense, being conflict-avoidant, or being a pushover.

Healthy boundaries are often defined as asking for and accepting help, valuing your own worth - including your own thoughts and feelings, accepting others’ boundaries, and being able to communicate your boundaries without stress or anxiety.

How might your boundaries be too rigid, too porous or just right [healthy] for you?

P.S.
We sailed the Calanques last week -- a series of rocky cliffs and beautiful little inlets between the city of Marseille and the town of Cassis in the south of France. Highly recommend. AND… someone had to drink Rosé from a cup… I volunteered! 😉

Have you ever been a little too generous because y

Have you ever been a little too generous because you didn’t want to appear “not nice?”

Have you ever “caved” when you should have straightened your spine, because you were concerned about being labeled a bitch?

Then you’re in the right spot.

This month, we’re talking all things boundaries.

Being nice is the Hallmark of a “good” woman.

Women have been socialized into believing that likeability | agreeability are more important than almost anything to ensure acceptance and belonging.

And the cost of this thinking is high.

Stress. Anxiety. Feelings of inadequacy. Self-loathing. Resentment.

The list goes on.

How might we change these perceptions? Behaviors? Expectations? Labels?

How might women support other women in setting better boundaries?

This month’s incredible LIVE global conversation is all about Bolstering Our Boundaries. I invite you to join us for it this coming Wednesday, July 21st.

We’re toasting to boundaries this month!

How might your life change if you were more confident with respect to setting boundaries?

Boundaries affect every aspect of our lives.

From our physical body and personal space to our beliefs and opinions, emotions, time, energy, sexuality, property, possessions, to our ethics and values.

But sometimes it’s not easy. Society doesn’t make it easy.

Hmmmm….

What might your next chapter look like if you learned how to set better boundaries, sans guilt?

If you learned lines such as:

“No, thank you.”
“I’m not discussing this with you right now.”
“I understand your perspective, and we can agree to disagree.”

Setting boundaries is NOT selfish, it’s healthy!

The next LIVE SHE GETS IT Coffee, Cocktails & Conversation is Wednesday, July 21st.

Saying "no" and “yes” to yourself is just as important as saying "no" and “yes” to others.

Setting boundaries includes internal boundaries and how we manage the relationship we have with ourselves.

Managing our time, energy, thoughts, emotions, behaviors, personal goals and commitments requires us to set limits and self-discipline ourselves.

When we prioritize self-care and personal wellbeing, we raise our energy levels, experience improved physical health and increase our self-esteem.

Many people get hung up on the word “deserve.”

Many people get hung up on the word “deserve.”

Some of us have been told that none of us “deserve” squat.

However, when we diminish our inherent worth with “I don’t deserve…” type thoughts, we truncate the dignity of our existence.

Thoughts such as...

“I deserve to be treated with respect.”
“I deserve to honor the worth of my own voice.”
“I deserve to feel good in my own skin.”

...are thoughts we ALL deserve.

Is "deserve" a tough word for you? If it is, try replacing “I deserve…” with “I am worthy of…” and see how this phrase fits.

What other thoughts do we all deserve, or are we all worthy of?

Hugs!
