Episode 94 – In this episode of Fresh Tracks Kelly walks us through a process to set ourselves up for success during the last few weeks of this year. Energetically, physically, mentally, and spiritually, being the brightest light you are can take more effort during this time of year. Intentionality is the key to success.

Self-love, retaining (and gaining) your personal power and energetically closing what’s draining you are keys to maintaining a peaceful sense of self AND being the beacon of light you naturally are. Take some time now to determine what you want these last few weeks of the year to look and feel like. Kelly will walk you through some steps to get there! Set yourself up for success and be the kind of spiritual being you choose to be.

Are We Experiencing A Global Transformation of Consciousness?

Episode 93. There is radical tension and discord across the world today. At times it feels unbearable. The magnitude of the turmoil makes me believe there is something bigger going on. What if we are we living through one of Earth’s great transformations? A time that will change the course of humanity forever. In this episode of Fresh Tracks we consider what’s been termed the “Axial Age”. A global shift in the consciousness of humanity. Such a powerful shift in humanity is bringing unprecedented turmoil and unrest on a global scale. Because with all change there is discord.

I share an overview of the world’s great religious leaders and their role in a previous transformation in human consciousness, and then we dive into some of the identifiable characteristics of today’s shift. Ultimately, we each need to know we play a role in today’s transition to a global consciousness. From the Universe in its’ totality, to how we interact with other species on our planet, to how we view and treat each other, we are intertwined and interrelated no matter where we reside.

Show Notes:

3:45 – About the First Axial Age
6:30 – A overview of the world’s great religious founders
11:00 – The consciousness transformation happening today
14:00 – Characteristics of this great transformation in religion, the environment, ecologically and ways of being
19:25 – What this consciousness change means on a global level
23:00 – Using this period in time to evaluate ourselves and our role in this transition
26:00 – Different alternatives to deepen to your personal transformation

Listening for Success

Listening for Success

In episode 52 of Fresh Tracks I speak with communication expert Leslie Shore on the topic of listening for success. The truth is we can ALL be better listeners and it’s important to recognize this in order to continue to expand your communication skills. Did you know there are things you can do to help the person you are speaking with listen better so they are more likely to hear what you have to say? There are things you say and do as a speaker to invite people to open up (or shut down) and they are more likely to listen to you. Leslie shares that our goal as speakers is to learn how to speak in a way that matches the person listening.

Ready to cut some Fresh Tracks but scared to share with your loved ones? Leslie teaches us how to discuss touchy topics in a way that is less likely to make the listener shut down. “Honey I’m quitting my job and starting a new business” has been known to bring up a few listening barriers as folks embark on their Fresh Tracks journey! Listen in on this week’s show to get the scoop!

Show Notes:

1:40 – Tips for finding out what may be preventing YOU from listening
4:30 – Learning to listen with your critical brain rather than letting your emotions taking over
7:30 – How to speak so people open up and are more likely to hear you
10:10 – How to communicate something touchy in a way that doesn’t shut your partner down
15:30 – Choosing to listen to ourselves (our mind chatter) or not
19:00 – Can you listen too hard?
21:40 – Boundaries and listening. Not setting boundaries will drain you fast!
25:30 – Changing the ground rules when we cut Fresh Tracks and how to work with it

Beyond Goal Setting: 3 Habits for Building a Thriving Business

In episode 50 of Fresh Tracks we discuss three simple habits you can incorporate into your daily routine to more easily get things done, grow your business with ease, and create with intention.  Many of us struggle because we work towards our goals haphazardly and start off our work day by getting done what we ‘have to’ first. We prevent our success in our business by unconsciously blocking our happiness, not feeling whole as a person and spending our time trying to fit in rather than appreciating what makes us unique.

In this week’s show we review what happens if you spend just a few minutes focusing on what’s important before starting work each day. Taking a few moments to focus on your goals and move forward with intention can change everything. You will ultimately find you spend less time achieving more. Learning to love who you are and honoring your distinctness, stopping unsupportive patterns that block your happiness, consciously choosing and clearing your relationships, and caring for your work space are just a few of the characteristics of entrepreneurs that build thriving businesses that we discuss in this week’s show!

The result of spending a mere five minutes a day with these habits is the difference in bringing dreams and visions to fruition in a concrete and repeatable way.

Show Notes:
2:00 – How the energetic force that runs your business works
6:00 – Tips for creating a healthy and productive work space
9:30 – The role intentionality plays in your day
12:35 – Money consciousness and circulation. How to keep the circulation flowing!
16:00 – Intentional happiness and ways we block our happiness
20:00 – Discovering where you do not feel you are whole as a person
24:45 – Learn to love your own distinctiveness rather than hide from it
27:00 – Developing the gift to see things as they are rather than how you want them to be
