This podcast is titled "Write your story" because there is such power and healing in telling your own story; even if the only audience is you. AND "Live your legacy" because we spend so many hours watching other people's realities...from influencers on social media to countless reality TV shows...but how much time are you spending living your own story with intention?! It is time to change that.

This interview with Steven Heumann, inspirational author and founder of Super Heumann Creative will change your life! Steven is joy to listen to and brings decades of experience with TV production and book publishing. You will want to hear his wisdom on the subject of why you should tell your story and how to do it!

In a video game, your character levels up or progresses through small actions by collecting coins, practicing skills, completing quests or acquiring tools & weapons. Skip those little steps and you stay stuck. You do small things again and again to win the game. You practice certain techniques to get better and better at the game. Same with Atomic Habits, but instead of “leveling up” to win a game-you are doing small habits to create a fulfilling, happy life.

The key to leveling up that I am going to talk about today is doing a semi-annual check-in—a kind of life review every six months. It’s simple, but it can completely change the way you look at your intentions, your habits, and your progress. It’s zooming out and looking at a big picture of your game to make sure you are heading in the direction that will help you level up and win the game.

Never heard of Atomic Habits & how powerful small steps can be to creating big changes? Check out these three episodes first!!

Episode 123: Small Steps Are Still Steps

Episode 124: Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results

Episode 125: Change Your Behavior, Change Your Life

Link to James Clear's book Atomic Habits

You have to zoom out so you can see where you need to to make changes & it doesn't need to be a big overhaul...what are small ways you can tweak your habits to make them easier, more obvious or more specific? Remember, there isn't a perfect 6 month date on the calendar to do this check in. What is most important is to DO IT.

Patterns I saw in my own life as I sat down and did my own semi-annual (ish) review.

1. The habits that I have accountability partners with-I am 10x more likely to do. And if they are friends outside of my family-even better!

2. If I want to get up at 5:30am in the morning to accomplish my habits, I best get myself to bed by 10:30pm or whatever I set out to do in the AM isn’t happening.

3. I am most likely to do the habits that help me feel more alive.

FOR YOUR CHECK IN ASK YOURSELF THESE 5 QUESTIONS:

1- What habits did you want to incorporate or intentions did you want to focus on these last months?

2- Which ones have you stuck with? Why?

3-Which ones have you stopped doing? Why? If it is important to who you want to become-what ways can you tweak the habit so you are more successful at doing it?

4-What is your plan for the next week? Plug into your calendar all the habits that are nonnegotiable that you want to make happen.

5-What is a way you can reward yourself in a month when you have consistently casted your vote for your new version of you?!

If the new version of you includes incorporating something that will strengthen you; mind, body and soul-Come join me at https://www.youtube.com/@yogaforteenswithisha

Today’s episode is really close to my heart. I want to share the story of why I started ISHA WARRIORS: TEEN YOGA and how it connects to the work I’m doing right now with suicide prevention.

...And it all has to do with the fact that I want you to know that you are never alone!

Yoga helps us feel connected. Before every class I teach, whether in person or a class I film to post on Youtube, and before every podcast I think about creating...I always ask myself, "What do teens need to hear? How can I help them know they are not alone?"

I have shown up again and again for ISHA WARRIORS; even though running this nonprofit has been the hardest endeavor of my life. So much I've had to learn! So many failures I've gotten to jump back up from! (Sometimes less jumping than dragging!) I keep showing up because I care and I want to help you show up again and again, too.

Yoga helps us feel seen; even more so when it is in person. This Thursday, September 11th, ISHA WARRIORS is hosting NOT ALONE-a free in person event for teens and their families.

There will be speakers who will inspire, a yoga routines that heals and the night always ends with lanterns on the lake...lanterns you get to decorate!

So bring a friend and bring your mat and we will see you at the Washington Township Park pavilion the second Thursday of September!

If you want to start a NOT ALONE event in your area check out this site to get ideas for how to do it.
