The Bold Life Movement with Kimberly Rich

Wow! This is an episode I never thought I'd publish. The idea of giving up alcohol always seemed so impossible, so undesirable, so boring.  After completing my 6-week sober experiment, my experience couldn't be further from the truth. I've never felt clearer, happier, and more aligned. The once ever-present urge to have a glass of wine or a cold beer has completely subsided. And yet... all the social scenarios I dreaded giving up, continue to be available. So much of our relationship to alcohol is related to the stories we have about it, about ourselves, and the chemical hold it has on us that we may not even be aware of.  Whether you're a social drinker who craves a cleaner life, or your are someone who feels like you've been abusing the drug for a long time, there is hope in this episode for you.  In this episode, you'll learn:  Why I decided to run a 6-week sober experiment (vs. 4 weeks). How it felt during the first few weeks of detoxing (spoiler: the struggle was real). Some powerful resources for helping me to understand my experience. The life-changing impact this one decision has had on me. Why I'm not claiming to "never drink again." How easy this can be for you too (if it calls to you).  Here are some of the resources I discuss:  This Naked Mind: Control Alcohol, Find Freedom, Discover Happiness & Change Your Life - by Annie Grace Mel Robbins Podcast: What Alcohol Does to Your Body Let's Connect!

In today's episode I share a super powerful tool for moving through conflict and disconnect inside your relationship. This incredible process can be used with romantic partners, business partners, employees, children, parents...anywhere that discord may get in the way of connection. I recently transitioned from romance to friendship inside one of my intimate relationships and it may come as no surprise that there were some sticky moments.  In today's episode I share how we used this tool to overcome our triggers, and consciously uncouple in peace. It's a vulnerable one! But my hope is that by sharing this intimate experience, you can save yourself future frustration and heartache.  Sending you love!Kim Let's Connect: Instagram - Say hi!

Why is it that some people are destined for success while others will never fulfill their full potential? What sets apart those that “make it” from those that never really make any money from their business ideas? I recently attended the annual DCBKK conference in Bangkok, Thailand. This is a gathering of internet entrepreneurs from all over the world who come together to mastermind, connect, and learn about how to grow their businesses.  While there were many entrepreneurial takeaways, what stood out to me were the things that differentiated those who had “succeeded” (in their sense of the term) from those who were still trying to make it work. In today’s episode, I share 3 things that “successful” entrepreneurs do, that others are unwilling or unable to implement. If you can honestly say that you do all 3 of these things, and you’re still struggling to move the needle, then reach out to me! I’m sure that with some outside perspective a plan can be put in place. I’m offering free 30-minute strategy sessions to the first 10 people who sign up here.

On a night like any other, Jess found herself working late at her high-paying financial job. But as the stack of project papers landed on her desk, a realization settled in her heart. She had to quit. A few months later she set out on the solo trip of a lifetime, hiking 2,000 miles, over the course of 6 months. This bold move changed the trajectory of her life and now empowers her to help others make similar shifts in their lives. QUOTABLES: “Opportunities rarely come when it’s convenient or comfortable.” “I let the part of me that wanted to find my passion and move forward, and win, over the part of me that was scared.” “I wanted to know that what was within me was far greater than anything happening outside.” SUBSCRIBE: iTunes | Stitcher Radio | YouTube FOLLOW JESS: Facebook WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: Why she left a 6-figure job to reconnect to a purpose-driven life.

“Did you move to Bali?” Short answer: yes. For now, at least. When I came to Bali in April, I never had any intention of staying (says me and everyone else who winds up in Ubud.) What I’ve uncovered from following my gut to this magical place is way more than I bargained for. ”To say it was easy, would be a lie.” Fast forward five months, and a lot has changed.

Jim Rohn said, “You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.” If this is true, then it pays to spend time with people who are doing what you want to be doing, and preferably 10 steps ahead of where you are now.

Internationally recognized, award-winning sexologist and best selling author (Red Hot Touch), Jaiya is the creator of the Erotic Blueprint Breakthrough™ and the Erotic Blueprint™ Quiz. Through more than two decades of client observation and clinical research she discovered a map of arousal that reveals your specific erotic language, a revolutionary framework to create deeper connection and sexual satisfaction. I first found Jaiya’s work when an ex-boyfriend of mine introduced me to her “Erotic Blueprint” quiz. It was so life-changing, that I’ve since shared this quiz with dozens of people, in the hopes that it will help them as much as it helped me. Her work is so effective that each year Tony Robbins invites her to speak at his private Relationship Seminar for his Platinum Partnership group (cost starts at $80K to join.) Piqued your interest, but still have no idea what I’m talking about? Think of your Erotic Blueprint as your sexual love language; a tool to help you better understand yourself, your partner, and how to have the best sex of your life. One of the reasons I wanted to bring Jaiya on the show is because so often the sex advice we receive tailors only to one type of blueprint. Our society gets its sexual education from Cosmopolitan, Playboy, and even-less-realistic, porn. We’re taught to think that sex should look a certain way, end a certain way, and if you don’t enjoy it, or can’t climax, you’ve failed. Jaiya’s Erotic Blueprints show us that not only are we all wired differently, but there are superpowers (and shadow sides) to each of these sexual blueprints. If you’ve ever wondered why your sex life doesn’t feel like what you see in the movies, or why you were more compatible sexually with one partner more than another, this episode is for you. Part of living your fullest life, is loving the deepest and experiencing the greatest ecstasy between the sheets. This episode will help you get there. SUBSCRIBE: iTunes | Stitcher Radio | YouTube FOLLOW JAIYA: Website | Instagram | Twitter | Facebook WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: Why immersion is the best way to become a teacher of something you’re interested in. Who her sexuality/tantra mentors were. How having more conversations about sex can heal the shame we have around this taboo topic. What the different erotic blueprints mean for you (Energetic, Sensual, Sexual, Kinky, Shapeshifter) The pros and cons (superpowers and shadows) of each blueprint. What socially normative sex looks like. The 4 steps to find satisfaction with a partner who has a different blueprint. Why bright lights cause the body to close up!
