In this 3 minute episode, I announce that I'm taking an indefinite hiatus from Affirmation Pod. I'm choosing to take some personal time to help with some family matters. Now I still have my list of the episode requests that I have not recorded yet so I look forward to working on them when I get back! I know it's going to feel like I'm missing my right arm because I started podcasting in April 2013 and I've been consistently publishing weekly since September 2015. That said, in between some travels this summer, I have been working on a podcast with someone and that will launch sometime in 2017. I may jump on the mic to share that with you. Please enjoy any of the other 124 episodes of Affirmation Pod and I look forward to publishing again upon my return! As always, thank you for listening!   SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT Thanks for supporting our sponsors! This helps keep Affirmation Pod free for you to listen to whenever you need it.

She literally has a positive affirmation for everything. When you don’t feel like getting up at all, she’s got a great positive affirmation.” – Gabrielle Union "Her words are such a gift. A beautiful way to kickstart your day while in silence and meditation. This fills my cup so I can be a better woman, wife, mom & friend to everyone around me." - LaTisha Guster "I’ve never thought of needing this kind of affirmation, but I’m really grateful I’ve listened to Josie’s soothing and encouraging messages." - Marta Retnoningsih   You Are Enough ❤️ Life can get difficult. Jobs are lost, hearts are broken, plans get changed, things go wrong. We’ve all been there. But when life gives you lemons, how do you cope? How do you navigate through grief with resilience? How do you control your emotions instead of letting them control you? Maybe you have unhealthy coping strategies. Maybe you bury your emotions, talk down to yourself, or power through the day without allowing yourself even a moment of rest and reflection.   Sound familiar?
