Happyish Ever After

Today’s conversation is with Anisa Fowler who is an international gospel singer.  Anisa has a powerful voice and a powerful message.  I loved this conversation and her wisdom on what she referred to as “Church Hurt”.  She talks about how people are fallible and sometimes people mishandle others but that is distinct and separate from an individual’s relationship with the divine. As someone who struggles with her own experiences with organized religion this conversation opened my eyes to another perspective.And while we were talking Anisa said “wherever you shine your truth it should not diminish someone else’s being”, and I have been thinking about that ever since we recorded.  What if we made that the new Golden Rule?  Shine bright, live your truth, just don’t try to take other’s down when you do that.  I loved that message and it is going to stay with me for many years.Instagram: www.instagram.com/anisaworships Website: www.AnisaFowler.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQbgBtFj8iZVyc2o27djvHA YouTube “Anisa the Next Chapter”: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nGIUP0LqWCK48iWuHaEApC3tN5w8tCcMY Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/17bKRK2NJvqU2mYIuBQr6D?si=1iCYm9VBTkCopEMxFL28cQ&nd=1 As always you can connect with me in a variety of ways!!!Instagram: www.instagram.com/tatianarobertsonofficial Website: www.tatianarobertson.com Facebook Page: www.facebook.com/TatianasWellnessPage Private Facebook Group for Happyish Pod Squad Crew: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1902004553313858/  

 Are you someone who "gets in her head" (actually, is there anyone out there who doesn't?).  The Untethered Soul brings an interesting perspective to that "voice in our head".  It helps us understand our relationship with our thoughts and emotions and helped me understand that just because I think something doesn't mean it is real - or about me!  The book also explores the source and fluctuations of our inner energy and it delves into what we can do to free ourself of the habitual thoughts, emotions, and energy patterns that limit us. In this episode Nimisha and I discuss our favourite takeaways from the book and share our challenges.  If you have ever thought of reading this book or wanted a little refresher - this is your podcast.I would love to hear book recommendations.  If you have one send me an email at [email protected] To find out more about the book you can find it here: www.untetheredsoul.com  As always you can connect with me in a variety of ways!!!Instagram: www.instagram.com/tatianarobertsonofficial Website: www.tatianarobertson.com Facebook Page: www.facebook.com/TatianasWellnessPage Private Facebook Group for Happyish Pod Squad Crew: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1902004553313858/  

Lisa Stuart is back and we are talking about friendship!

Ashton Whitmoyer-Ober who is also known as "Enneagram Ashton" joins me in this episode to talk about the Enneagram which is an ancient personality typing system .  Ashton uses her knowledge to help people strengthen their relationships and become the best versions of themselves through the framework of the Enneagram and shares her knowledge on the podcast.One of the most interesting things about the Enneagram is that it uses a number system to put people into types based on motivations.  The motivations that the enneagram is based on are what people’s biggest desires  and  their biggest fears are.  So instead of typing an individual based on WHAT they do - which is the behaviour - it types individuals based on WHY they do it - which is their motivation.Ashton explains things so clearly and gives examples that help us all understand both the enneagram framework and ourselves better.I invite you to pop in your earbuds and head out for a walk and enjoy the podcast.  It was such a treat for me and I hope you enjoy it just as much!You can find out more about Ashton and the work she does: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/enneagramashton Website: https://enneagramashton.comTake the Truity Enneagram Quiz here: https://www.truity.com/test/enneagram-personality-test As always you can connect with me in a variety of ways!!!Instagram https://www.instagram.com/tatianarobertsonofficial Website: www.tatianarobertson.com Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TatianasWellnessPage Private Facebook Group for Happyish Pod Squad Crew: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1902004553313858/   

The word "Mantra" is derived from Sanskrit.  The common translations  are “a tool for the mind” and “that which clears the mind”.  An affirmation validates or confirm something. These are two  useful self-care tools and in this mini episode I describe the differences in how they can be used.This week I give you the following mantra and hope it will give you some inner peace. I let go of what I can't change and accept what is. My heart will guide the way to happiness and health. 

I wanted to call this episode "how to set boundaries without seeming like a meanie" but it seemed a bit long... But seriously, how many of us feel like setting boundaries is unkind or that we are being mean when we set them? In my head I know that boundaries aren't mean but I still have that little voice in my head that tells me it kinda is.  Then I had this conversation with Becky and it really helped me see how me setting boundaries helps not only me but those around me.In this episode Becky talks about how we can set boundaries and she gives us different approaches to find what works for us.  By the end of this podcast you will have concrete steps that you can take in order to start the process of setting boundaries with confidence knowing that what you are doing is not mean or selfish but a normal part of healthy relationships. If you feel you need a bit more help you can find Becky's Guide to Setting Boundaries here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ul7bDeAOgjirG5sRXxbmZrCBokfTS4Dv/copyYou can also connect directly with Becky multiple ways:Her website: www.highergoodcoaching.comEmail: [email protected]  Instagram: www.instagram.com/beckyupchurch_Facebook Group: www.facebook.com/groups/TheWomensGrowthCircleAs always you can connect with me in a variety of ways!Instagram: www.instagram.com/tatianarobertsonofficial Website: www.tatianarobertson.com Facebook Page: www.facebook.com/TatianasWellnessPage Private Facebook Group for Happyish Pod Squad Crew: www.facebook.com/groups/1902004553313858/
