WTF.“HOW AM I HERE, AGAIN?!”When you put so much time into being introspective and doing the deep work and “rising above” only to be catapulted back into that old familiar feeling of "^@$#!@#$%^$&(!!!"But what if we are so busy being hard on ourselves under the noble ruse of expecting “better” that we are missing our WIN? Missing our opportunity to acknowledge our growth? What if we are totally missing the point?I recorded this specific episode this week because I needed to talk through this sneaky crap myself. I officially feel refreshed and found so much reassurance in pulling off the veil of bullying myself in the name of “self improvement".I even give you impromptu homework in this episode. Yep- things got real. (as usual)SHOW NOTES:DOWNLOAD THE SELF DISCOVERY FREEBIE HERE.Take Your FREE Quiz: What do your photos *actually* say about you?

Why is it so hard to listen to ourself? Does it annoy you when people say “you already know all the answers”(Me too. “JUST F*%^N TELL ME!”)But… I have to tell you something… it’s not a Jedi mind trick. It’s the truth.And the most important mindset shift you can make for 2022 & beyond is in a habit you probably already do everyday: your picture taking.And no, not the “professional” or “fine art” kind. I’m talking, the uniquely you version. The quick snapshot, “not sure why I even felt the need to take that” kind of photos.You don’t have to identify as “the creative type” to get HUGE results from your photo taking.The type of results that will help you feel more present in your now and create more of the life you want.You’re already halfway there…join me in my brand new FREE masterclass as I show you why your camera (or the phone in your pocket) is the key to unlock a more purposeful vision for your life.SIGN UP HERE: FREE Limited Time Only MasterclassMore from Bianca:www.biancaleamorra.comBook Your NLP Breakthrough Session Meditations for Photographic Artists: https://insighttimer.com/biancaleamorraFree weekly coworking: PHOTO yogaMonthly Membership: Nostalgia, Now.IG: @biancaleamorrahttps://www.instagram.com/biancaleamorra/

She couldn't find what she was looking for so she created it herself in the form of her podcast On The Hard Days & her group membership Mothers Together.We talk about how having the right support is a powerful way to unlock your confidence, how important it is to raise your hand even when you don't have the answers, and how there's beauty in the contrast of reality vs expectation.SHOW NOTES:Learn more about Megan Champion:ontheharddays.com/motherstogether IG: @on.the.hard.dayshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/on-the-hard-days/id1551044106Join me in my free Get Mama in the Photo Challenge Sign up below to take control of the memory of you. https://view.flodesk.com/pages/61cbe56ea247a7a541994fd4Take Your FREE Quiz: What do your photos *actually* say about you?

Time can be so elusive in general. As a mother, we are in a special kind of constant maelstrom of all the things. You think you are seeing your special moments but oftentimes we are caught in the dreaded "can't see the forest through the trees". Your mundane, exhausting everyday all of a sudden vanishes and you are left mourning the rose colored memories. How do we muster the energy to maintain our awareness of these special moments before they're gone forever?Michelle McKay comes on to chat about what she felt when she was surprised by an old photo of her breastfeeding her baby- the only photograph that was haphazardly captured of that beautiful and intimate nursing season for her.Michelle is a mama, lover, and memory catcher from Geelong, Australia. As well as making it her mission to create a lasting, artful and meaningful record of this beautiful ordinary life, Michelle runs a thriving in-home photography business, and is an online educator of all things in-home photography and memory catching. She hosts a community many thousands strong world wide, creates editing presets, runs courses on the art of photography, and has taught at acclaimed retreats such as the much loved Milky Way Newborn Retreat. Michelle’s artistic style is inspired by a combination of lifestyle, documentary, and photojournalistic approaches, and she is a devout believer that you should always always always take the picture.SHOW NOTES: Michelle Mckay:michellemckayphotographer.com.auwearememorycatchers.comFacebook Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/wearememorycatchershttps://www.facebook.com/groups/thebeautifulordinarypresetsInsta:@michellemckayphotographer@michellememorycatcher@wearememorycatchersMamas!

Positive Psychology Practitioner & Women's Authenticity Advocate Stephanie Florez felt somewhat unsatisfied with the photographs left behind of her dear grandmother. With such a rich and deep bond that they shared, there was so much more that she wanted to encapsulate. Stephanie created a tribute piece with my heirloom album template that incorporated more of her grandmother's powerful essence through meaningful keepsakes. She speaks on what that experience felt like for her and how living authentically helps enrich our every day.

I became obsessed with documenting, saving, & creating things with meaning. Grease stained lunch notes, home video stills, and creating immersive installations dedicated to loved ones present & passed-I viewed everything through a nostalgic lens. I saw through the current state and into the sentimental core of it all. I received my BFA in Photography and continued living my life with a deep desire to make it count & not miss it. (whatever "it " was)
In 2021, the death of my beloved dog, my first real loss in life, confirmed that the work I had been creating and my process for living it served a higher and an infinitely more expansive purpose. Grief, comfort, love, self discovery- I didn't find refuge in grand, polished places. I found what I needed in the chronicles of my seemingly mundane nothingness. There is was, the whole time. I knew it all along and yet- I needed to be reminded. Don't we always know? Sometimes we all just need reminding.
Since then I have launched a podcast, an intimate membership, education, & photographic commission offerings. All of my work is centered around showing you that your "nothing" is really your everything. All you have to do is see.
