Hello, friend. If you are listening to this live, I want you to know that the elegant excellence goals journal summer collection is here

I will put a link in the description when you swipe up, but we have a very limited stock of our previously sold out

2021 journals exclusively for July through December your six month journal as well as a very special

limited time bonus when you swipe up and click through that link today's episode we are going to be talking about our dreams, our life choices,

our feelings and fears and motivations and all of that is what we use the elegant excellence goals journal for.

It is not simply about being more productive and making things happen although it does help us to do that as well,

but it's being more intentional about the things we say yes to and really uncovering why are we being resistant why are we over complicating it is getting more done,

but really it's getting less done, but doing it better it's about simplifying our life not simply to be monastic and minimalistic,

but really to have more grace more joy to have more peace in the journey. I describe it as having me as your life coach in your pocket to sit down with every single morning.

That's how I use mine or to kick off your Sunday night or Monday morning to plan out your week. It has changed my life and thousands of others.

So I would love for you to get one before they sell out and I will put that link below now on with the show.

Well, aren't you a cheeky one?

You're welcome. What was that? You're welcome with Hillary Rushford. Say it again. You're welcome.

In advance. Happy Wednesday my dear. We just passed the holiday of Mother's Day and that got me thinking about this topic of motherhood,

which I feel that I am at a unique intersection to speak on the topic of because of my past present and future.

So my past I have a good relationship with my mother and my mother is still living. So I am not at the place of grieving a mother or at grieving a strained relationship with a mother.

I have never been pregnant or tried to get pregnant. So I don't have any miscarriages or abortions in my past or natural infertility challenges.

And as you are aware, if you have been a podcast listener and an Instagram friend, I've been unsure for many years if I want to have a family very much on defense.

I think that as a couple now, you know, truly knowing who my life partner is and having gotten married a couple years ago, we are more likely, yes, but it's still something that we very much are like this is a huge undertaking.

It's a hard we sure that we want to embark down this road and we're still a few years away from that. So we're not right.

We are not presently trying to conceive or under the pressure of making this decision. So it allows me to feel like I'm kind of able to stand at the center of this big circle of women who all have so many different experiences.

From their past with their own mothers as a as perhaps a mother yourself of a younger, you know, an older mother of now and adult child or even watching your own child now go through infertility or pregnancy or motherhood or adoption or all of the things.
