We all need a friend we can talk to about anything. But it’s not always easy to find people who are willing to open up about pretty much anything. Allow me to be that friend. This is a podcast where no topic is off-limits, and we swap judgment for aiming to understand and relate to each other. Let’s just talk about life--the messy parts, and the pretty parts, and the in-between. We’ll talk self-love, mental health, relationships, body image, and so much more! Have a topic you wanna bring on? Pitch your idea to me over on Instagram @laurenmkendrick.

Have you ever been overwhelmed?? I'm willing to be your answer is a big fat "yes".
My belief is that overwhelm comes less from a large to-do list, and more from a lack of self-care and "balance".
In this episode I share a story of a recent time I was overwhelmed, and how I was able to reflect and course-correct before things got out of hand!
It's all about "energy management" versus "time management" which is something I cover in detail in my online course, Vibrancy on Demand. Click here for details to join!
Here's my question for you this week: What makes you feel overwhelmed, and how do you help yourself through it? Let me know by tagging me on your IG story or post, or DM me! I'm @laurenmkepler.

Have you ever showed up and gave it your all in a friendship, or even an interaction with someone...and they criticized you in some way?
It can be painful to hear the harsh judgments and criticisms others make about you, but it can also be enlightening.
In this episode I share a story of a friendship gone sour, and the feelings I had when the truth came out about how this person felt about me.
It reminded me of an agreement I had made with myself earlier in the summer that literally transformed the way I was showing up in my life (for the better).
I'm sharing it all with you in today's episode! The drama, the pain, and the lessons...I get real with it all.
Here's my question for you this week: What's one agreement you need to make with yourself right now?? Tag me in your Instagram stories or post, or DM me! I'm @laurenmkepler

In this episode I’ll be focusing on the heartbreak we experience from a broken relationship.
Heartbreak isn’t something we can run from. Yes, we can try and bury it. But eventually it’ll make its way up to the surface in some form or another.
And if you don’t address, and heal from your heartbreak, it’ll continue to haunt you. What I mean by this, is that in future relationships you’ll struggle to communicate your fears that you’ve buried around trust, vulnerability, your lost faith in love, or whatever it is.
And if you continue down this path, of moving into the next relationship before the trauma of the last one has been healed, then maybe this next one will end too. And you’ll be left wondering what’s wrong with you. Or maybe thinking that you’re just not cut out for love.
Keeping your heart open after a heartbreak is no easy task, but in this episode I discuss how you can get to the other side in one piece.

If you're a stepmom, a parent, or even have a difficult relationship in your life this episode is for you!
This week I'll take you through my journey as a stepmom. From the time I found out the boyfriend I was with had a son, to the time he first moved in with us, to what it's like 4 years later. It's definitely been one of the biggest challenges in my life!
Sometimes the most difficult relationships we have serve as a mirror, allowing us to face our inner demons...whether we like it or not. Which is also why it can be such a great tool for growth!
I hope that if you're struggling in any relationship in your life, that you can give yourself compassion and grace as you navigate the difficult parts.
If you want more information on how you can better manage your energy and moods, and allow yourself to show up as your best you as often as possible, check out my online course Vibrancy on Demand by clicking here, or visiting laurenkepler.com and going to the "courses" tab.
Here's my question for you this week: Do you have a relationship in your life where up until now you've held high expectations & been disappointed?? How can you better manage those expectations in order to improve the relationship?
I'd love to hear your thoughts! Tag me or DM me on Instagram @laurenmkepler :) Can't wait to hear from you!

Would you consider yourself a creative person? When I was younger I was always singing, drawing, painting, writing, and creating.
But for some reason as I got older, I disconnected from that side of myself and forgot what it was like to play. I started to refer to myself as "not creative" until I re-connected with that part of myself. If you've ever read the books Big Magic or The Artist's Way, then you understand we all have creativity within us. We just have to allow ourselves room to play and express the magic we have to offer!
As I've tapped back into my creativity supply, something unexpected has happened. I've been feeling less uptight, more playful, and present, and just overall happier!
To hear more about how you can tap into your own creativity supply and use it as a source of joy, tune into this episode. Can't wait to hear all about your adventures!

I feel like there's this unspoken agreement in online business (or even brick & mortar businesses) that we all must know our elevator pitch, we should be pitching all the time, we should all sound the same (as we're trying to sound "rebellious",we often just sound like everyone else), there's just so much to the noise of online business that I feel has stifled my creativity and individuality.
Can you relate??
I had a big realization the other day--I'm doing too much consuming, and not enough creating. And that's why I'm looking and sounding like everyone else.
So I'm taking a step back from seeking another coach, or business strategy, and I'm turning inward. I'm getting back to the roots of why I even started this business in the first place, and I'm shifting my focus into connection. Connection with myself, and connection with my audience.
If you want to hear more about what that looks like for me, then be sure to tune into this week's episode!
