Join Kelly as she delves into the profound influence of gratitude on our lives. From self-love and abundance to healing and authentic connections, explore how gratitude can reshape your mindset and manifest your dreams. Special attention is given to the historical context of Thanksgiving, encouraging a deeper appreciation and understanding of Native American heritage.

From the Episode:

• "Gratitude isn't only about being thankful for what you have, like what you can hold in your hand. It is about honoring who you are and how far you've come. Every time we pause to recognize the beauty in ourselves and our journey, We strengthen our self love foundation..."
• "The frequency of gratitude is the frequency of abundance."
• "...remember, friends, you can be a masterpiece and a work in progress simultaneously."
• "...everything you're going through is preparing you for exactly what you asked for. And when you remember that life is not happening to you, life is happening for you..."
• "...manifestation begins with appreciating what we already have. And this gratitude radiates outward and it draws in new opportunities and connections and personal growth."
• "...what if we could reframe our triggers as opportunities to grow, heal, and step into a deeper sense of peace?"
• "...the version of you that you have become is so well equipped to handle the ebbs and flows and the ups and downs and the challenges in the contrast of life and do it with grace and gratitude."

Notes and Considerations:

• I mentioned one of the first episodes I recorded (for the false launch) with Helen Leland, founder of The Bomb Co. (formerly Blender Bombs)
• You can CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE POWER OF SELF LOVE WEEK the transformational free training I'm hosting Dec. 9-13, that I mention in this episode

In this heartfelt episode, Kelly Jackson delves into her seven-plus year celibacy journey, exploring personal growth, self-love, and intentional living. Kelly candidly shares her struggles with self-worth, relationships, and the transformative power of embracing celibacy, aiming to inspire others to create lives in harmony with their dreams.

From the Episode:

• "...instead of looking for the right person, I'm going to become the right person. And perhaps you've heard me say this before that while on the celibacy journey, I became an expert on self love."
• "There was a time when I did not like who I saw when I looked in the mirror. And not even that I didn't like her, I didn't love her. And there were some times I probably even felt like I hated her."
• "I had no real self worth. No self love ,and I was just looking for that validation, right? Looking for that love. And I was doing it in all the wrong ways."
• "I kept attracting the same types of men, and I was repeating the same types of patterns and the same types of behaviors. over and over. They had different names or maybe different careers, or they looked different, but it was like the same man."
• "...the relationship that you have with yourself is the most important relationship that you will ever have in your entire life. Because you are the one person that you will spend every moment of every day with for your entire life."
• "...when you have the relationships in your life and everyone is willing to grow together, right? Independently, and then collectively, that's where the magic happens..."
• "I didn't even love myself in the way I wanted other people to love me. And I was like, you know what? I'm doing it. I'm doing it..."

Notes and Considerations:

• Here is my blog post: "Sex, Love, XXX, Celibacy and Conscious Relationships: Day 3 in Shadows"
• Here is the blog post from my therapy session: "Assignment #6: A Letter to the You Who First Came for Counseling"
• I mentioned one of the first relationship coaches I discovered, Matthew Hussey
• I mentioned a monk, Dandapani, I was learning a lot from at the time

In this episode of 'Dreamed It Then Real Lifed It,' host Kelly Jackson delves into the transformative journey of motherhood, from difficulties conceiving to miscarriage to rainbow baby and beyond, particularly focusing on conscious parenting. Sharing her personal experiences and challenges, Kelly explores the importance of emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and breaking generational cycles to create a nurturing and supportive environment for her children.

From the Episode:

• "Motherhood, it's one of the most intense, transformative, and beautiful experiences we can have."
• "...it's that season of hope, heartbreak, hope, heartbreak, hope, heartbreak, and it's a cycle, right?"
• "I did not have a regulated nervous system. I didn't even know what that meant. And I certainly didn't have one."
• "...if I had kept going the way I was going, that wasn't the environment I wanted to create for them. And I knew that they deserved better and that I could be better "
• "I'm telling you that, yeah, I used to raise my voice. I used to have not a lot of patience...even though I was a wonderful mom in so many ways, I was also not present in so many ways, and I was also not who they needed me to be."
• "...motherhood invites us to dream bigger for both ourselves and our children."

Notes and Considerations:

• The opening reel I played was from Instagram by the accounts @abcdoula and @newborncare
• The girls were actually 5 & 7 by the time we started Generation Mindful by Suzanne Tucker. They were 3 & 5, nearing their birthdays, when we first moved into our apartment. And it was over a year before my intentional journey towards conscious parenting led me to Generation Mindful, which I feel like was a relatively new company at the time. Click here to go to the Generation Mindful website.
• The song I played at the end was called "The Feelings Song" by Heidi Rojas Music, and I was playing it from YouTube

• "...it's the commitment and the dedication and the discipline to show up every day, to move your body and to do this and to connect with your breath and to connect with yourself."

And when he would enter the building, before he would even come into the part of the building, the room where I was, I could hear him whistling down the hall, and I remember that my body would get tight."

In this episode, show host Kelly Jackson shares a deeply personal experience that dramatically shifted her perspective on life. Confronted with how quickly circumstances can change, Kelly realized the importance of living in the moment. This pivotal event prompted her to reconsider how she was approaching her daily life, allowing her to focus on enjoying the present rather than letting life pass by unnoticed. Join Kelly as she explores the profound transformation that came from learning to appreciate the here and now.

From this episode:

• "I knew I couldn't rewrite the past, but I realized that I could hold the pen and write a completely new future, a totally new story. It was not too late and I was not too old to start over"
• "If I was to channel all my energy on who I was becoming, I could create a brand new life for myself and my family. And then I could come out on the other side and light the way for others to do the same."
• "...if you want something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done."
• "I've literally changed my entire life, changed my chemical makeup, my DNA, by changing my thoughts."
• "Do you hear what I'm saying, friends? That when I changed the world within me, the world around me changed, too."
• "...when you wake up every day thinking there must be more to life than this, then I assure you there is."

Notes and Considerations:

• The original first episode was actually recorded in March 2020, despite the fact that I repeatedly say it's from early 2021 in this show! whoopsie;)
• When listing sports I played in high school, I said football—guys...I didn't play football!! The transcript says (and I actually played) softball! whoopsie again;)
• I mentioned my absolute favorite book of all time, The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. If you don't already have this book, you can get your very own copy here!
