The Purpose Show

We are going to talk about drug addiction today. Even if you don't struggle with addiction yourself, I want you to listen to this conversation. It is vulnerable, eye-opening, and encouraging on so many levels.  Laura Cathcart Robbins is the host of the popular podcast, The Only One In The Room, and author of her memoir, STASH. When she needed help most, she couldn't find herself in the stories and books on shelves. So, she wrote her memoir to speak out, become part of the solution, and give other women who are struggling with addiction, a place to find hope and encouragement.  Laura's beautiful book is about her journey parting from her authentic self, struggling with addiction, and coming back to her authentic self. It is raw, vulnerable, and deeply encouraging on so many levels. Go grab this book! I know you will enjoy it (especially after you hear from her in this conversation).  In this episode Allie + Laura discuss:  ❤️ Motherhood + needing help to cope, and how that was connected to her addiction ❤️

When I feel stuck in my business, I feel stuck in my purpose. Can you relate?  As I have shifted over the last year or so, my message has also shifted; which ultimately means, my audience has shifted too. What once felt aligned now feels misaligned. What once felt good and like it was moving forward, now feels stuck and without clear direction.  All of this has led me to recognize old patterns that are no longer serving me and are holding me back from the GOOD that is trying to come through. We all have patterns that do this to us. As you sit and listen to this episode, my hope is that you give yourself some grace and take a moment to look at the old patterns in your own life that may be holding YOU back as well. ❤️ Ps - thank you for always letting me be vulnerable with you, babe. I am grateful you're part of my community.  In this episode Allie discusses: 

Don't let the words money and debt turn you away from this conversation. Because babe, I PROMISE ... this is not a normal conversation around those topics. I've invited my client-turned-friend, Alli Williams on to talk about this because not only is she brilliant in this area, but she makes money feel light and FUN. Which is how money should feel

There are 3 main walls in every business that kill the drive (+ bank account) of entrepreneurs:  1️⃣ The wall of inconsistency  2️⃣ The wall of anxiety  3️⃣ The revenue ceiling (less of a wall, more of a ceiling)  If you are hitting these walls, if you're experiencing a decrease in your drive and in your bank account, then listen up babe. This is for YOU! If you are ready to break down these walls, then grab a notebook and let's do this.  Mentioned in this Episode: Biz coaching with Allie Connect with Allie: Instagram Website Podcast Page This podcast is produced by Pivot Media Co. Interested in advertising on this podcast?

When you are stuck in a pattern of doing things a certain way and getting results you DON'T want ... how do shift out of that? I got you, babe. In this episode I am going to share the exact journal exercise I do to shift patterns in my life and step into a new way of doing, being, and thinking. This is not a super introspective exercise. This is more simple, practical, and lighter exercise. Grab a journal (legit, grab one). I am going to guide you through this exercise as we work through this together.

Is there something in your life you are afraid to share? Well, this episode is that thing for me. I am scared to share this with you, but I know it will help you in ways it has helped me. So let's talk about it ... the shame of home and shame of clutter.  Over the last few years ago I went through so much change and so many shifts. And because of that piles of clutter surround my home (and my life). So I found myself sitting in the same mental, physical, and emotional place I was a decade ago before I decluttered for the first time.  In this episode Allie discusses: 

Have you ever met someone who went through a wake up call and ACTUALLY did something about it? Meet Kelsey Smith! After the complicated delivery of her first son, Kelsey had the realization that while she had accomplished many "goals", they weren't goals that brought her fulfillment. This led to the launch of her business which focuses around normalizing moms having big dreams + making their own fulfillment a priority.  In this conversation, I talk about a few different things with Kelsey but everything points back to having vision, goals, and dreams — as a mom and as a family. Which of course leads to one of my favorite conversations ... morning routines! ☀️ You can join Kelsey + her community in so many ways; the Momma Has Goals app, events, programs, and 1:1 mentorship. Kelsey wants to help YOU live the life of your dreams for yourself and your family.  In this episode Allie + Kelsey discuss: 

Alright business owners (especially mompreneurs!)- this is for you! Let's talk about repurposing your content. When it comes to creating content, you spend all this time making a piece of content that is minutes long - but what if I told you it was possible to take that one piece of content and stretch it into multiple pieces of content over the span of weeks (or even months)? I want to help YOU make your content go further. And I am going to let you in on my secrets

Motherhood is meant to be JOYFUL but the reality is that isn't always the first feeling moms admit that they feel. If you feel like you are drowning and overwhelmed ... you are not alone and this conversation is for YOU. Brittni Clarkson is going to help you unblock your joy in 3 simple ways, and I know it is going to change the game for your motherhood and your life.  Brittni Clarkson is the creator of the Happy Mom Method, a course designed to help you transform your mom-life, unblock your joy & love the home you've hated. She is an entrepreneur, podcast host, and (most importantly!) a mama to 3 boys who is passionate about helping moms overcome the overwhelm and actually ENJOY MOTHERHOOD.  In this episode Allie + Brittni discuss: 

Clutter impacts your space and blocks energy. Blocked energy in your is reflected in your home, much of the time. And blocked energy is a side effect of negative energy flow. This is something I talk about A LOT! But recently, I started digging into Feng Shui - and while it isn't something I fully resonate with, there are certain things that I feel aligned with. I want to share those parts I have been using within my own space and hopefully inspire you do the same with your home as you work through your clutter.  PS - This episode was set to air following episode 292 but it got pushed back a few weeks. So before you listen to this episode, head back a few weeks and tune into Episode 292

We are diving into Mommy Juice (aka wine) culture; from knowing when you are taking it too far to ways you can put yourself in check to defining what a healthy relationship with alcohol for YOU is. Joining me for this conversation is my friend, Michelle Smith. Her story is POWERFUL, and I know you will feel loved (not ashamed) as you listen to her share. Mama's, I see you. You are doing better than you think.  Michelle Smith is a bestselling author, keynote speaker, and the founder of Recovery is the New Black, a digital community for women living or exploring an alcohol-free life. Michelle struggled for years with alcohol addiction that looked like “overdoing it.” In reality, she was drinking to escape the stresses of life---and the “mommy juice” drinking culture was helping her self-destruct. Since getting sober in 2016, she integrates both her personal experience in recovery and professional experience as a mental health and addiction advocate toward normalizing sobriety in our boozy culture.    In this

We've heard about post-partum depression and post-partum anxiety, but what about post-partum anger? What about the out-of-nowhere rage a mom can experience after having a baby OR even the general mom-rage that comes throughout motherhood?  Friends, things get very vulnerable in this episode. I have brought Jessie Ereddia on the show to discuss mom rage. I've shared bits of my post-partum story and am excited to dive in a bit more with Jessie. This conversation is something I think we all can relate to, in one way or another. I hope it encourages you.  Angry mom turned empowered mom, Jessie Ereddia is a Certified Anger Management Coach who helps moms manage their anger and change their motherhood experience. Since 2017, she has been the host of the Mom Empowered Podcast, where she often shares her own journey of navigating postpartum rage, learning to manage her anger and anxiety, and her unique process for equipping moms to do the same. Jessie and her husband Grant are in the thick of parenthood with their

Do things in your life feel unbalanced? Have you noticed a not-so-positive shift in your mood, energy, or behavior? This one's for you. Let's talk through finding balance ... BUT it's not about finding the perfect balance (does that really exist?), it's about finding harmony in your life. And I want that for you friend.  In this episode Allie discusses: 

Enjoy being with your kids ... you aren't frustrated or annoyed that they are constantly pulling on your or needing you during the day.  When you live in a perpetual state of stress, your body and mind don't know how to live without it. So when you don't feel stress, you end up creating it because you only know how to live in a state of stress. That is NOT the purposeful life you are meant to live, friend.  We are going to dig deep into what it looks like to prioritize YOU ... without the mom guilt. Because you deserve to enjoy being with you kids every day. You don't deserve to feel frustrated or annoyed because they need you. So I have brought Elizabeth Andreyevsky on the show because she has SO much wisdom to share with you about this, and I know it is going to change your motherhood.  Elizabeth is a stress coach for moms. She is the host of Emotionally Healthy Legacy podcast and a mom of 4. Elizabeth is super passionate about mental health and emotional wellness in motherhood. She helps overwhelmed mom

You can change your entire life in one second because all it takes is THE decision to act different, be different, think different, and elevate above where you have been. And in this episode, we are taking that deeper. We are going to talk about how to follow that decision with action over the course of 3 months — and the things you can do to change everything within those 3 months. Let's make some shifts, babes. We can do this, together ❤️ In this episode Allie discusses: 

Our culture (especially mom culture) tells us that self-sacrifice is glorified and that being a martyr to your family and kids is like wearing a badge of honor. But ... when we silence ourselves + continue living in this way, we send a subconscious message to our mind that our wants, opinions, and needs do NOT matter. And ultimately, this determines our self-worth.  So let's put an end to this toxic thinking and culture around us — let's set some boundaries, find our voice, and authentically and unapologetically value ourselves.  Amy Smith Green is a certified and credentialed life coach and hypnotherapist, masterful speaker, and personal empowerment expert. Amy uses her roles as coach, writer, podcaster, and speaker to move individuals to a place of radical personal empowerment and self-worth.  In this episode Allie + Amy discuss:  ❌ Why we are compelled NOT to set boundaries. 

When you are leveling up, so much of what you use every day stops feeling good. Whether that is your wardrobe, skin care, business model, homeschool routine, family rhythms, personal care - they just stop working for you and supporting you in that new level. You are feeling cluttered in your own space now that you have reached a new level. If you feel like an alien in your own space ... that is ok. This is SO normal and such a good sign. It shows growth.  But if you don't deal with that clutter, you risk blocking growth in that new level. So let's dive into this and talk about clutter in this new level. I got you, babe.  In this episode Allie discusses: 

I have a different kind of interview on today's episode. Let's call it a reverse interview. Initially, I sat down with Dr. Nicole Beurkens on her podcast, Happier & Healthier to discuss decluttering your environment and life (one of my fav conversations to have!). I loved this back and forth conversation with Dr. Nicole so much, that I asked her if I could repurpose it on my podcast. And friends, I truly CANNOT wait for you to listen to this episode! Grab something to take notes, this conversation will inspire you to bring change in your life and environment.  As a licensed clinical psychologist with advanced degrees in psychology, education, and nutrition, Dr. Nicole Beurkens is a leading holistic child psychologist. She has dedicated her 25-year career to providing parents with research-based strategies that get to the root of children’s attention, anxiety, mood, and behavior challenges so they can reach their highest potential.  You can also watch this conversation on Dr. Nicole's YouTube Podcast Channel

In this episode I am opening up about the last year, the moving pieces, and ultimately how this beautiful shift took place in the BEST way possible. ❤️ Brian and I came to this decision together and it has been super smooth + positive. We don't like the word divorce (it's a really negative word in our world) so we decided to call our situation what it is ... we are unmarried. We aren't a couple, but we are a family. Our kids come first and still see mom and dad being the best friends we always have been, without the romantic side. My hope in this episode is that you walk away seeing divorce from another perspective; a lighter, less heavy perspective.  You can watch the full YouTube video announcement about this decision HERE.  Connect with Allie: Instagram Website Podcast Page This podcast is produced by Pivot Media Co. Interested in advertising on this podcast?

Today we are going to GET ORGANIZED! A few months ago I hit a place where I just needed a reboot in terms of my schedule. A lot of things shifted and the things I needed to do become super specific and high pressure that my current organization system was no longer supporting. So I reset my system and I want to share that with YOU!  My process focuses heavily on anchors + routines. And while I walk through it through the lens of running my business, this foundational process can apply to ANY area of life. Whether that is running your home, your personal life, your corporate job ... truly, anything! I hope this episode encourages you to #getorganized and figure out what rhythms work for you, your life, and your home. And if they aren't you have the power to change that
