"Human skills are what our kids need most, but are taught the least."
My friend, Dr. Missy Gryder is back for another conversation but this time, we are focusing on general parenting and meeting the needs of our kids.

We are going to talk about drug addiction today. Even if you don't struggle with addiction yourself, I want you to listen to this conversation. It is vulnerable, eye-opening, and encouraging on so many levels.
Laura Cathcart Robbins is the host of the popular podcast, The Only One In The Room, and author of her memoir, STASH. When she needed help most, she couldn't find herself in the stories and books on shelves. So, she wrote her memoir to speak out, become part of the solution, and give other women who are struggling with addiction, a place to find hope and encouragement.
Laura's beautiful book is about her journey parting from her authentic self, struggling with addiction, and coming back to her authentic self. It is raw, vulnerable, and deeply encouraging on so many levels. Go grab this book! I know you will enjoy it (especially after you hear from her in this conversation).
In this episode Allie + Laura discuss:
❤️ Motherhood + needing help to cope, and how that was connected to her addiction
❤️ How pride and being self-sufficient holds back so many from getting helped
❤️ What led her to writing her story + why speaking out for black women was so important to her
❤️ True diversity that goes unnoticed and how we can be better at including everyone, no matter who they are
❤️ Breaking free of shame and how it will take you to a place of true freedom

When I feel stuck in my business, I feel stuck in my purpose. Can you relate?
As I have shifted over the last year or so, my message has also shifted; which ultimately means, my audience has shifted too. What once felt aligned now feels misaligned. What once felt good and like it was moving forward, now feels stuck and without clear direction.
All of this has led me to recognize old patterns that are no longer serving me and are holding me back from the GOOD that is trying to come through. We all have patterns that do this to us. As you sit and listen to this episode, my hope is that you give yourself some grace and take a moment to look at the old patterns in your own life that may be holding YOU back as well. ❤️
Ps - thank you for always letting me be vulnerable with you, babe. I am grateful you're part of my community.
In this episode Allie discusses:
🤩 When she realized she was stuck and what she did to get out of it
💫 The patterns that hold her back (like holding onto things and isolating herself)
💛 The difference between healthy boundaries and hiding

Don't let the words money and debt turn you away from this conversation. Because babe, I PROMISE ... this is not a normal conversation around those topics. I've invited my client-turned-friend, Alli Williams on to talk about this because not only is she brilliant in this area, but she makes money feel light and FUN. Which is how money should feel 😉
Alli is the founder and CEO of FinanciALLI Focused, a financial literacy company helping people create a flexible financial plan they can actually stick to (no deprivation here). She paid off six-figures of debt while still saving, investing, and buying season football tickets. Alli’s work has been featured on Business Insider, Nerdwallet,WSPA 7 News, and more. She has her MBA in Finance and lives in South Carolina with her husband and 2 sons. She spends her time at football games (Go Gamecocks!) and with a Starbucks latte in her hand.
In this episode Allie + Alli discuss:
🧠 Mentality around money
💸 Dealing with your finances; where to start, what to face first, and tips for managing your finances better
🤩 Feeling shame around debt + shifting your mindset when it comes to debt
And at the very end, Allie pops on for a solo-chat moment around income-problem; when your income doesn't match your living expenses. She encourages you around this and invites you into a solution that works for her, and many others!

There are 3 main walls in every business that kill the drive (+ bank account) of entrepreneurs:
1️⃣ The wall of inconsistency
2️⃣ The wall of anxiety
3️⃣ The revenue ceiling (less of a wall, more of a ceiling)
If you are hitting these walls, if you're experiencing a decrease in your drive and in your bank account, then listen up babe. This is for YOU! If you are ready to break down these walls, then grab a notebook and let's do this.

When you are stuck in a pattern of doing things a certain way and getting results you DON'T want ... how do shift out of that? I got you, babe. In this episode I am going to share the exact journal exercise I do to shift patterns in my life and step into a new way of doing, being, and thinking. This is not a super introspective exercise. This is more simple, practical, and lighter exercise.
Grab a journal (legit, grab one). I am going to guide you through this exercise as we work through this together. 💛
In this episode Allie discusses:
💥 The power of deciding to shift patterns that are not getting you the results you want
📓 Exact prompts she uses to work through these shifts (and she walks you thorough doing the same)
🤩 Unfavorable outcomes + desires; how listing them out brings out patterns and shifts you need to make

Is there something in your life you are afraid to share? Well, this episode is that thing for me. I am scared to share this with you, but I know it will help you in ways it has helped me. So let's talk about it ... the shame of home and shame of clutter.
Over the last few years ago I went through so much change and so many shifts. And because of that piles of clutter surround my home (and my life). So I found myself sitting in the same mental, physical, and emotional place I was a decade ago before I decluttered for the first time.
In this episode Allie discusses:
🏠 The current reality of her home and clutter, and where shame started to creep in over the last few years
☀️ The shame women feel in their home (+ how real, normal it is)
❌ How the energy of hiding hinders you in every area of your life
💛 Choosing to live against the grain when it comes to clutter + things

Have you ever met someone who went through a wake up call and ACTUALLY did something about it? Meet Kelsey Smith! After the complicated delivery of her first son, Kelsey had the realization that while she had accomplished many "goals", they weren't goals that brought her fulfillment. This led to the launch of her business which focuses around normalizing moms having big dreams + making their own fulfillment a priority.
In this conversation, I talk about a few different things with Kelsey but everything points back to having vision, goals, and dreams — as a mom and as a family. Which of course leads to one of my favorite conversations ... morning routines! ☀️
You can join Kelsey + her community in so many ways; the Momma Has Goals app, events, programs, and 1:1 mentorship. Kelsey wants to help YOU live the life of your dreams for yourself and your family.
In this episode Allie + Kelsey discuss:
🌟 Does desire to evolve or go to the next level mean you are unhappy?
🫶 Why it is so important to lean on others for support (and why it should be normalized)
🤩 Family vision; what it means and the value it can have in your goals + dreams
🌤️ Morning routines (we LOVE a good morning routine 😉)
