In this Thanksgiving week episode of Sash & Soul, I dive into the real power of gratitude, not just the "go around the table and say what you're thankful for" version. We talk about how gratitude actually elevates your energy and mindset and why that matters for your pageant prep, goals, and overall well-being. I break down what manifestation really is (and isn't), how to use visualization and micro shifts to get into a higher-vibe headspace, and simple practices you can start today, especially if this season feels heavy, complicated, or emotional.

SPEAKER_00:

Hello, what's up, you guys? Welcome back to Sash and Soul. Really glad that you're here this week because I'm I'm really excited about the conversation we're gonna have today. Of course, it's the week of Thanksgiving that I'm recording this and producing it. So you will all have access to it the day after Thanksgiving. And naturally, I have to talk about gratitude today. But there's something that I want to talk about quick before we dive into that. Um, and we're gonna talk about the power of gratitude, how it elevates you. I'm gonna weave in some understanding manifestation and the true practice of manifestation. And then, of course, like how do you apply this in your life and achieving your goals? We're gonna talk about things to do and add to your preparation in competition prep or add to the work that you're doing on going after your goals and then the things to avoid as well. So we're gonna dive into all of that. But I want to do a quick add-on to the conversation that we had last week. Last week I talked about the drama with Miss USA 2025 and Miss New Mexico walking out of the sashing ceremony and really dove deep into how to navigate the pageant industry when it comes to mistreatment or bad experiences or conflict. But the thing that I wish I would have talked about a little bit more was that uh, yes, of course, there are going to be instances and circumstances in your experience that you may need to navigate some of that. But I started off talking about how wonderful my directors were. And I was, I had four local titles in the Miss America organization. And my team every single year was just so incredible to me. And I'm so grateful for them and will never be able to pay it back or even pay forward how much they did for me in those years, and even since then, just continuing to be like friends and family to me. So, what I want my message to be to you is the importance of your gratitude towards the people that are helping you and showing your appreciation to your directors and volunteers and anyone else that is in your circle. Now, keeping in mind, of course, that being treated poorly is never okay. So I understand that, you know, there's there's gonna be some boundaries there and some limitations. Um, it's gonna be a lot more difficult to show your appreciation to a volunteer who truly is mistreating you. But it is really important to not be a brat toward the people that are donating their time, their energy, taking time away from their families, um using their own personal funds to support you and to support the organization that you represent. Um people that have full-time jobs and lives outside of it. Like, I would imagine there were multiple times during my years as a title holder that my directors didn't share with me some of the things that were actually going on in their lives. And I think about it now as a coach and recognizing that I don't always share all of the person, like I don't, I don't, of course I wouldn't share all the personal things going on in my life, the things that I'm struggling with with my clients. And so therefore, I know that my directors weren't divulging that information to me. And so when I look back, I think, man, like, did I really show them enough appreciation? Did I give them enough grace? Did I um respect that they had a life outside of being a director or a volunteer in the pageant system? And so I want you all to keep that in mind that this is a service of love. Uh, people that are involved in the pageant world for the most part are really beautiful, wonderful, well-meaning people that have giant hearts and truly just want to see you succeed. We're not always gonna be perfect. And so your directors and volunteers and the people in your circle are not always gonna be perfect. So you get to choose, just like we talked about last week, how you how you behave, how you respond, how you approach certain situations. And I think the number one rule that you should follow is to always approach things with grace. That your directors are not perfect, they're human, and we all make mistakes, and some of us are better at acknowledging our mistakes than others. Um and I think it's important for you to just keep that in mind, to always keep gratitude and appreciation at the forefront, to be humble that you're not the center of the world. And just because they're your directors doesn't mean that you should be the center of their world as their title holder. So um take that for what it is. And moving forward, um maybe take a minute to actually reach out to the people that have supported you in this journey so far, and this week especially. Just let them know how much you appreciate it. And I promise you that'll elevate you as well. So let's dive into what I mean by that. Because this week I really want to focus and center on the power of gratitude. That gratitude isn't just a thing that we're supposed to do, like it's once a year, it's Thanksgiving, we're supposed to be so grateful for all the things in our lives. And so, this one day a year, we sit down at the table and we all go around and talk about what we're grateful for. And it's always kind of the same thing: grateful for my house, grateful for my family, grateful for my friends, right? And that's all well and good. But we're gonna dive into actually practicing gratitude as more than a thing that we're just supposed to do to show appreciation or to be a good person, but how can we use gratitude to elevate ourselves in everything that we do? So I want to start off by talking about the things that I'm grateful for. And as I was making my little, I have an outline in front of me because I was like scribbling out all the things that I wanted to touch on today with gratitude. And I, as I was going through my outline, I just felt myself getting more and more excited to be talking about this with you. My energy, my mood just was really starting to shift. And it was just really fun. So I'm like, okay, so this I'm actually practicing what I'm talking about right now, and that that was really fun. So I want to start with a list of things that I'm grateful for. I, number one, am so grateful for my health right now. I have experienced some crap in the last year, health-wise, and my family members have experienced some pretty horrible health issues. And so I'm incredibly grateful for my health that I feel well today, that I was able to get out of bed and actually clean my house, which I haven't done for like three months. And it just feels so nice to be moving and to be breathing and to be feeling good in my own skin and capable again. And grateful for the health of my family and friends, all of my loved ones. Um, especially because life is so fragile. And I think about that too. I've lost people, I've almost lost people. I'm like, man, I hate it when people say life is short. I always like to say life is fragile. Um, life is short feels like so doom and gloom to me, but I know how fragile life can be. And so I'm just really grateful for life and my health and that I'm doing well. I'm grateful for a clean house. Oh my gosh, you guys, I have two dogs that shed, and if I don't keep up with it, it is so gross in here. It's like, oh, please don't judge me, but like dog hair and my food, like I like I feel like it's everywhere. So I'm just really grateful for a clean house, like cleaning all of the laundry, vacuuming the entire couch, like steaming the floors, all the stuff. It just feels really good, especially right ahead of the holidays. Um, because we'll be decorating here in the next couple of days. And I'm grateful for that. I'm grateful that I'm excited for the holiday season because sometimes it's a difficult time of year for me, and I know that it can be a difficult time of year for many people, especially when it's like we see all this joy around us, but we might not actually be feeling all of that joy internally. So I'm actually grateful that I'm feeling some of that joy this year, and I really want to cling to that and just keep riding that out. Um, I'm grateful for all of you. I'm really grateful for this podcast. I'm grateful for the outlet that it gives me to really speak my heart. And, you know, I had someone reach out on Instagram this last week after my episode last week about Miss Universe. And I, if you listened, you know that I really didn't dive into the details of what happened at the sashing ceremony and at Miss Universe in the fallout after that. And oh my gosh, there was even more drama going on within the Miss Universe system even since the finals last week. And they said, I really enjoyed your episode, but I really wish you would have gone into more detail because I hadn't heard of what was going on. And it really caused me to pause because last week I had an outline of what I was like of the whole situation. I was gonna share all of the background, but then I ended up not doing it because I wanted to spend more time on talking about what do we do in conflict? What do we do when we're, you know, in a situation that is actually tearing us down instead of building us up. Because to me, taking an opportunity to teach a skill and to provide tools is so much more important and more powerful than diving into the spilt tea of it all. And so I kindly responded, like, thank you so much for listening. I like so appreciate all of you for listening, and just said, there are plenty of other accounts out there that talk about the the ins and outs of the pageant news world. I'm not one of them. And I'm really grateful that I have this opportunity and that I have all of you that are interested in hearing more of the depth that I have to share. You know, there's a reason I call it sash and soul, not tea and tiaras, because I want to talk about the things that matter to me and that knowing like if there are some of these things that that matter deeply to me, then I have to know, like I have to imagine and believe that that they matter deeply to other people too, and that they're actually making a difference. So I'm really grateful for this platform and I'm grateful for all of you for being here with me throughout this journey and for all of your support. And then, of course, I am incredibly grateful for the fearlessly authentic coaching program. It has grown into something that I had never imagined it would, and I am so in love with the program and the the women and competitors and clients that I get to meet because of it. Even if it's just someone that is reaching out for a consult to meet me, to get some feedback. Um, and they never end up signing up. Maybe they don't have the budget for it or it's just not the right time. Like grateful for every single person that's hopped on a consult with me, even if they haven't signed up and grateful for those that have invested in the program, and not invested in the program, but invested in themselves through this program. And I it's just like I I started working with a new client this last week, and I got off of the first call with her and thought, oh my gosh, it's so fun to see how far she's gonna go before she's even getting there. Like we are in the early stages of learning and growth and developing mindset tools and communication techniques for interview and public speaking and like really, really in the early stages. Like we're talking brand new to all of this. And I just was buzzing when I got off the phone with her because I could just see how far she was gonna go. And it's it's situations like that, which I have often with my clients. And I think because I've seen so many clients grow, that now I have this faith that anyone that signs up in this program is here because they are so ready for that next level. That, you know, tired of kind of doing the same old things all the time and having the same outcome or um having the zigzag of placements at competition and not knowing what they're doing wrong and um having great performances, but just still not achieving their goals. To me, that means like there's something internal. And I have the privilege of working with incredible people across the country on supporting them and helping them build that confidence and build those skills. And man, like I'm living the dream, you guys. I am I'm a hundred percent living the dream that I get to do this full time and I get to meet women like you that are listening. So thank you all so much for all of that. That's my laundry list of things that I'm grateful for. Hopefully, you stuck it out. Um, sorry, that was really me just kind of going on a rampage of appreciation. Um, but hopefully it helped you kind of consider too for yourself like this season of giving thanks, how much deeper can you go in your appreciation? Not just the surface level stuff, but like, are you grateful for the hard times? Are you are you grateful for the growth that those hard times forced you to have? Because I am. Am I grateful that hard things happened? No. Am I grateful that I overcame it, that I got through it, that I had people supporting me? 100%. Am I grateful for the person that I am today because of it? Yes. So I think it's a lot about perspective. So I hope as you were listening to my little rampage there, you started really thinking deeply for yourself of what are you truly thankful for? Where are you today that you wouldn't have been without some of these people or circumstances or um setbacks that you experienced in your life? So let's dive into how gratitude elevates you. So here's what happens, and I felt it as I was doing my little rampage. As you are practicing gratitude, whether you're sitting down and journaling the things that you're grateful for, or you're just sitting there and being mindful and making a laundry list of things in your head, it elevates your vibration. So we all have a level of vibration depending on what our mood is. And gratitude, joy, and love are the highest level vibrational emotions that you can experience. And so this is what makes gratitude such a powerful tool because we can actively practice it. We can actively sit down and think about the things that we are grateful for. Now, experiences like grief or despair, anger, fear, though, those are lower vibration experiences and emotions. And there's nothing wrong with them. They're nothing to be afraid of. We have to, as human beings, it's part of our life experience to experience all of the vibrations of emotions. And that's also something to be grateful for, that we're not just stuck in one vibrational level that we're constantly ebbing and flowing. But getting yourself to that high vibration of gratitude and joy and love is important because in the law of attraction, like energy attracts like energy. So there's a misunderstanding when it comes to manifestation. And I've heard it a lot. I've heard it with my clients, I've heard it with friends, I've heard it on podcasts, that you're thinking or speaking things into existence, right? Like speaking out loud that I'm going to be Miss America, right? That that is somehow manifesting. I've also heard like I'm manifesting all the things that I want. Okay, fine as a blanket statement, absolutely nothing wrong with it. It's a really good start, but the thing that it's missing is energy. And when I say it's missing energy, I'm saying it's missing the emotion behind it. So like attracts like when it comes to vibration. So if you are thinking I'm going to be Miss America, and you are taking 30 seconds to imagine what that would feel like, to be on that stage, holding hands with another woman that also wants to be Miss America, and hearing your name called as the winner, hearing the roar of the crowd, having that moment where you like fall to the floor in disbelief and stand up shaking and crying. And the outgoing Miss America comes out with the sash and the crown and the flowers, and you're there like trying to hold still while she puts the crown on your head, and you're crying, and you can see the judges, and you're thanking them, and now you see your parents and your loved ones out there screaming for you, and this is all coming to fruition. Notice the difference between I'm going to become Miss America or I'm I will be Miss America and the 30 seconds or so that I took to describe that actual experience. Notice the feeling, the feeling change, the energy change. Saying it is good, feeling it is way better. So much better. So I want you to practice this, but I want you to practice starting small. So if my mic is picking it up, I do apologize. Um this is not magical thinking. This is not, I'm gonna sit here and imagine myself becoming Miss America and then it's automatically going to happen. That's not how it works. But I'm gonna get into what this high vibration, what getting into that high break high high vibration actually does for you here later on. So let me just throw that out there that I'm not advocating for magical thinking. Okay. But starting small, starting with small little things that you're grateful for and feeling the feels of that gratitude. Like when I was doing that rampage and I was talking about I'm grateful for feeling good. That's such a simple thing. But as I kept going on about like why this means so much to me that I feel good and the things that I've been able to accomplish today because I feel good, I felt my energy building. And then it built into another thing that I'm ugly, sorry, there's my dog barking. And then I it built into these other things that I was that I'm really grateful for. It's that time of day where they just get really antsy and there's other dogs walking by. So anyway, welcome to my world, fearlessly authentic. We're just gonna keep going. As my energy in my gratitude kept building, I kept bringing in more and more and more that I was grateful for. And it just kept like the momentum built off of that, and I was having more fun with it. That's why I called it a rampage, because it kind of just kept going. But we want to start small, and starting small creates micro shifts in your energy, which again, your energy meaning micro shifts in your attitude or your mood, it's going to improve slowly, and then it'll it'll pick up speed. Kind of like when you imagine pushing a small little snowball down the hill at the top, and it starts picking up more snow. And as it does that, like keeps going down the hill, it picks up more speed and more snow, and it gets bigger and faster and faster and faster by the time that it gets down the hill. It's way more powerful to do that with a high vibration like gratitude or love or joy or um happiness than it would be with venting or drama or gossip. Still creates that momentum. There's still an energy there, but it's a low vibration energy. You might still get heated and riled up, but it's a lower vibration, which means that you will be attracting other lower vibration things, things that don't actually feel good in the long run. So if you start to feel that that momentum building towards a negative or low vibration energy, it's going to be easier to stop it before that momentum builds up and picks up speed. And then we can start shifting and making those small little shifts. If you are in a space right now where you are experiencing some grief, or maybe some depression, or heartache, or if you're one of those that really struggles during the holiday season because it's like everyone else is having a great time and it's so wonderful and joyous, but you are like it's just bringing up trauma from the past or reminding you of who's not here to celebrate with you. Like, I get all of that. I have been there. It's okay to not be in high vibration all the time. It's not possible. That's why, like I said earlier, like having human emotions is really good. It's important, it's powerful in its own way. And having low vibration doesn't mean that all of a sudden you're not attracting the things that you want. Like, this is something that I really had to learn when I was diving into the law of attraction was that I'm not messing it up just because I'm having a bad day. I'm just having a bad day and I can work through it and it'll like eventually it'll start to shift. But when you practice making these small shifts, these small little micro shifts in your energy, when you just start small, when you start thinking like man, the smallest little thing I'm trying to think like going down, like petting my dog and just being grateful that she's there for me to snuggle with when I don't feel good. And just concentrating on that for a little bit before my mind starts to take me to the things that I'm not grateful for and the reasons that I don't feel good. Just stay focused on that one thing that feels good and then maybe move to another thing. Like, oh, this blanket is actually really fluffy. That's really nice. It smells good because I just washed it. That's nice too. Sometimes it's a matter of getting out of our own head and starting to focus on something external in our environment that we find pleasant and that can kind of start the shifts. But it is a matter of focus and choice in choosing to do that. It's a lot harder when you're in the throes of something yucky, and I know that firsthand. I've been there, especially in the last few months. It's been a struggle. Um, but that doesn't negate the truth behind what I'm saying and the power behind it. Um, that making those micro shifts it will build and build and build. So, how do we use this tool of manifestation in life and in our goal achievement? Maybe you're you're competing soon, or maybe you're applying for grad schools or something. What happens when you practice gratitude on a regular basis? And I often have my clients like writing down three things that they were grateful for that day at the end of the day, or three things that went well that day. Um, we do it consistently because that gratitude is gonna elevate your energy. And the more consistent you are with it, the more consistent your energy is. So this high vibration or positivity, if you want to call that, like a positive energy, increases. It's gonna increase as it increases, it will also increase your physical energy, your concentration, your inspiration and your intuition, your productivity, your confidence, and your attractiveness. I'm not talking about like romantic or sexual attractiveness. I mean like attracting people in your life that are gonna create more opportunities for you. I remember this happening for me the third time that I competed for Miss Wisconsin. It just felt like everything was lining up. And I kept meeting people and having experiences that I just felt like I'm on the exact path that I'm supposed to be this year. And it feels very much like this is my year to become Miss Wisconsin and go to Miss America. And so I'm just gonna ride this and I'm just gonna focus on all of these things that I feel like are pointing me in the right direction and leading me exactly where I'm supposed to go. And then my experience at Miss Wisconsin that year was incredible. I was in a completely different mindset. I had been working with a coach that was helping me with my mindset and shifted my communication skills. And my experience at Miss Wisconsin then was so much different. I felt more at peace. I felt more content. I felt really good about what I was bringing to the table. And I was ready for any outcome. And that was the year that I was first runner up. And what is so cool about that whole experience is that it was my gratitude for everything lining up and focusing on all of these good things that felt like they were leading me down this pathway to something amazing. That when I was standing off to the side of the stage as first runner-up and I was watching Laura Kepler be crowned and take the runway, I had this overwhelming sense that I was exactly where I was supposed to be. And what's so cool is that like I had visualized myself winning. I wholly believed it, I was grateful for it before it even happened, and I didn't win. And I was okay with that. So this isn't, this isn't magical thinking, right? That all of a sudden, like we're visualizing that it's gonna happen and then it happens. No, but what can happen is something even more incredible because I was first runner up, and then go figure, Laura went on to win Miss America. And I was given the opportunity to be Miss Wisconsin. So it didn't happen in the way that I thought it would, but in so many ways, it happened in such an incredible way, a way that I never would have imagined, that I got to take over as Miss Wisconsin and do the job for six months. I got the additional scholarship money, and I was young enough that I was able to come back and compete again. And two years later, I came back, competed again, won, and got my ticket to Miss America, plus earned the title for myself for an entire year to do with it what I had always dreamt of doing. And so my gratitude and my focus on all of these great things that were happening in front of me on the journey to Miss Wisconsin that year, I wholeheartedly believe that all of that led me to being in the right energy to succeed at Miss Wisconsin to that level of becoming first runner up. The other thing that your high vibration or positive energy does, and when I say positive energy, oof, I always have to like pause and do a little caveat. I'm not talking about toxic positivity, I'm talking about genuine, like up-leveled emotion and up-leveled um mood and attitude. Um, when you have high vibration or positive energy, it also wards off negativity. Negativity in the form of comparison. So if you're someone that really struggles with comparing yourself to others, you're gonna be in a low vibration state when you are doing that comparison. And so the best thing you can do is pause, distract yourself, and start focusing on. Something that's going to elevate you again and vibe and gratitude might be a good tool for that. It also wards off self-doubt in a similar way that it wards off comparison. So use gratitude as a tool to overcome a lot of those things that hold you back and get in your way. In your preparation, ways to use gratitude very simply. The first one is like I mentioned, I have a lot of my clients do like an end of the day, little gratitude, like just three things that you're grateful for. You can also do it at the start of your day, to start the day off on an elevated space. And that might actually even be better than doing it at the end of the day, but whatever works for you. You can also do it throughout the day, just like taking a pause, maybe during your lunch break, to sit back and think about what you're grateful for. And if you're having an especially bad day, again, taking it easy and going small, just little things that you're grateful for, like getting to work safely, getting to work on time, um, knowing that you're gonna go home in a couple of hours, whatever it might be. So adding that, those, those moments of actually writing down the things you're grateful for is one. Also adding visualization in your prep. So if we're talking about competition prep, or we're talking about applying for a job or applying for grad schools or any other goal that you are looking to achieve, visualization is an incredibly powerful tool. Think back to when I was talking about this idea of becoming Miss America and how I like outlined what it would actually look like. And then all of a sudden your feelings came with it too. So that visualization or practicing like writing out a story of what you want it to be and what you want that experience to be like is powerful because it forces you to have the feelings of that experience. Do not do visualization if you are struggling with comparison or self-doubt at the same time. So if you're doing like this visualization of you like killing it in interview and having the best interview ever, if you're struggling with that and it's not quite coming and it's just making you nervous, that's counterintuitive because again, what we want is elevated emotions, elevated energy through your emotions. So if you're having some negative emotions associated with it, probably not a great idea to keep doing that visualization. And of course, the next thing is practicing meditation. So, or leaning into your faith or your spirituality. Uh, those can be really powerful tools because, again, it kind of gets you outside of yourself and outside of your own head and leaning into something bigger and much more powerful. Meditation is powerful because it calms your mind and so it slows down those thoughts that might be lowering your vibration or adding to your self-doubt or adding to the comparison. In the Fearlessly Authentic app, Monthly Membership, I have included a handful of guided meditations on various different topics. So it's a great way to just get started. They're less than 10 minutes, but to just kind of get into a habit of doing a meditation every day. And I would say avoid at all costs anything that is going to bring your energy down. That's why we want to limit doom scrolling. We want to limit like it's important to stay up to date on what's going on in the world. But when we are inundating ourselves with all the things happening in the world right now, and most of it's negative or scary or frustrating, that's just going to lower your vibration. So kind of capping off how much time you're actually going to do that or counteracting it with something that's going to elevate you afterwards. But avoid naysayers, avoid drama, and avoid gossip. It's like I said earlier, like venting can be really powerful, but maybe cap it or be venting to someone who you know is going to help you turn that around into being solution focused and figuring out how you want to move forward from there. Because staying in that space is only going to perpetuate that momentum. And then it's going to build up that snowball going down the hill. It's going to be a lot harder to stop. So catch it early. And you guys, mindset work like this, because let's face it, all of the things that I'm talking about today is very much mindset work. It takes practice and it takes consistency. And there is absolutely no perfection in mindset. And I can tell you that firsthand. I'm a mindset coach. I do this for a living. I this is what I talk to all of my clients about. And I struggle with it. It's not easy. But practicing it consistently, it becomes more of a habit and it becomes better. It becomes more of a lifestyle experience rather than this skill or this thing that you have to just like keep practicing and keep nagging yourself to do. Um and it just feels better. So honestly, once you kind of get the feeling of like feeling good, it's easy to keep moving into it because feeling good feels so much better than feeling bad, as you know. So small steps, baby steps. And as you move throughout this holiday season, allow yourself to feel what you're feeling and be mindful to be practicing helping your feelings along in a way that is up-leveling you, in a way that is helping you. I'm not talking toxic positivity. I'm not saying just be positive because look, that's gonna do a lot more harm than good. And I am not about that. But as you move through your day-to-day with the holiday season and uh finals coming up, and um maybe you're graduating and not quite sure what you're gonna do after you graduate, or maybe you're going into your final semester and that's bringing up some nerves. Maybe you're waiting to hear back on some of your applications, whatever's going on in your world, like you you have to face those things, they're not gonna go away. Um, and there's certainly, certainly no way that toxic positivity of just telling yourself, everything's gonna be great, you're gonna get through this, everything is awesome. If you're not feeling it, that's gonna cause more harm than good. It's gonna make you feel like you're doing something wrong or you're failing at this, and you're not. So give yourself grace and practice those small little micro shifts to feel better. With that, I have to let you go because I have about five minutes until I have a client call tonight. And then um, I gotta get this produced so it can get out there for all of you to listen to. So let me know what you think. Reach out, let me know if gratitude has been has proven to be something that works for you, or if for some reason it's difficult because you're going through some stuff. Um, we're we're all in this together, you guys. And um and I can be a good person for you to just lean into. I'm not gonna make it worse. I'm not gonna tell you to think or feel differently. I'll always just encourage you to take steps that you're comfortable with that feel a little bit better than what you're feeling. This is not a jumping from feeling terrible at the bottom of the stairs to feeling amazing at the top of the stairs. No, we take it one step at a time. Stair step your way to feeling better. Make those micro shifts, okay? And I hope that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. If you're going shopping, good luck with all those deals. And of course, I will be back again with you next week. We are gonna start talking a lot more about how do we wrap up 2025 and lean into 2026 and all the things that we want to accomplish in the new year in the way that that sets us up for success. So I will talk with you then. Thank you all again so much for being with me. So grateful for you. And take care of yourselves. Talk to you next week. Bye.
