Rock Your Joy

"We have a creative life force that comes out in so many unique and beautiful ways. But in order to tap into it, I think we have to stop. I think we have to stop producing, consuming, doing, and just take a breath and take a moment to pause."Our society values productivity over anything else. And with that kind of culture, it can be hard to honor our bodies' need for rest. But resting and restoring our energy throughout the day will not only improve the quality of the work we do but the quality of the life we live, too.  This week, Aine discusses creating intentional white space to tap into your higher self and invoking creative energy through deliberate rest.

"It really dawned on me that the best thing I can do for my kids is to be a happy, healthy mom. There's nothing on earth I can buy them that would be more important than them seeing their mom happy, healthy, confident, empowered."It’s not uncommon for moms to put their dreams and goals on hold for their families. But at a certain point, doing so may hurt you. By learning to put ourselves on the priority list, we’re becoming more fulfilled versions of ourselves and can show up in even more ways for the people we love.On this episode of Rock Your Joy, Aine is joined by Olympic bronze-medalist and founder of Strong Mom Strong Fam, Lauren Regula, to discuss the challenges she faced as she began her journey into motherhood, re-discovering her life-long passions and how she’s transitioning back into “Mom-mode” after the 2020 Olympics! (01:40) - Lauren's journey(06:55) - Becoming a new mom(10:05) - It's enough just to be me(11:55) - Strong Mom Strong Fam(17:04) - The next open space(19:45) - Sport parallels(22:02) - Motherhood & entrepreneurship(26:23) - Who Not How (30:55) - Rest & recovery(33:41) - Headspace(35:43) - How is Lauren cultivating joy?(38:04) - Be you and stay curiousLauren Regula is the founder of Strong Mom Strong Fam, where she helps Moms "Calm The Chaos" within themselves and take ownership of their bodies and lives. Recently, she decided to step out of her comfort zone and train to make her third Olympic roster in softball. Now, Lauren is officially a 3x Olympian and Olympic Bronze Medalist! Even still, Lauren had plenty of hurdles to jump to get to where she is today. She spent 6 years in and out of depression after the birth of her third child. Through more hard work and strength than she knew was possible, she loved herself whole, gained back the confidence she had lost, and became the person she needed to be to make her dreams come true. She was able to make this happen just before her 40th birthday and with her family as the best support system - and cheering section - that she could ask for!

"We can become open to new opportunities when we are truly grateful for what we have already created, because everything in your life right now is something you already manifested."It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Our to-do list grows and we can’t help but feel like there isn’t enough time, enough money, enough energy… And in this feeling of lack, we forget that the holiday season is about connection, love, and gratitude. This week on Rock Your Joy, Aine talks about the narrative of overwhelm that is associated with the holiday season and how we don’t have to subscribe to it.

"Ultimately our habits create our life. And so the invitation is actually to become curious and present and willing to take yourself off autopilot and check in: is this life I've created the one I really want, am I being who I want to be?"Creating a life that you’re excited about begins with your own actions. Sometimes, we fall into routines that don’t serve us, or once did and don’t anymore. That’s why it’s important to step back and reflect on your habits to ask if your day-to-day actions are helping cultivate the life you want.On this week’s edition of Rock Your Joy, Aine shares how moving to California took her out of autopilot, allowing her to examine her habits and think about new ones.

“We get into these habits of hustle culture and this drains our resources. And so it's not uncommon to get to the point where our brain says, 'Enough is enough. I actually can't manage this anymore.' And where that shows up is physical health symptoms.” Our minds and bodies are intrinsically linked together. When we become stressed and overworked, our bodies will begin to show signs that it’s time to slow down. Dr. Nicole Byers is a neuropsychologist and the CEO of Rocky Mountain Neurosciences. She uses her platform as a public speaker and host of The Bold Life Podcast to aid folks in understanding what their bodies are telling them and how to manage symptoms by finding their source.  On this episode of Rock Your Joy, Nicole joins Aine for a conversation on building awareness of your own body, why change is so difficult for us to process, and the practice of saying no.

Change is never easy. It can cause immense discomfort and usually leaves us feeling stressed, confused, and drained. But change is a necessary part of life.
