Pressing Reset: Finding Strength, Resilience & Joy with Karen Taylor Bass

  1. Pressing Reset: Finding Strength, Resilience & Joy with Karen Taylor Bass Janet M. Taylor 30:20

Are you feeling overwhelmed by all the roles you are carrying — mother, caretaker, entrepreneur, friend? This episode will give you permission to put yourself back on the list.

 

Janet Taylor, your Life Organizer, sits down with Karen Taylor Bass — dynamic keynote speaker, award-winning media strategist, corporate wellness trainer, Amazon Top 20 bestselling author, and morning radio host of Soulful Sunrise on WURD 900 AM. Karen’s journey from
bitter to better is one of resilience, laughter, and the radical act of
choosing yourself.

 

In this conversation you will learn:

 -Why women keep moving themselves to the bottom of the to-do list — and how to work your way back up, one step at a time.

 -The power of five minutes in the morning to shift your entire day — before you ever touch your phone.

 -How your breath is your healing device and a simple breathing technique you can use right now.

 -Why how you treat yourself is exactly how the world will receive you.

 

The chess-not-checkers approach to organizing your day — including why Karen puts both workout and eat on her to-do list every single day.

 

How laughter, sisterhood, and a little chocolate can carry you through life’s most bitter seasons.

 

Karen also closes the episode with a beautiful guided Meditation from her book — a rare and peaceful way to end a podcast conversation.

 

Taylor’s Tip Time: Five quick decluttering tips to reduce Stress and visual overwhelm — put something away, toss the junk mail, clear out the junk drawer, clear a surface, and toss anything expired.

 

TossItTuesday: Let go of old paid bills you have been holding onto for decades. Release it. It is done.

 

Resource Roundup: Janet recommends beautiful storage baskets that are both functional and decorative.

Book suggestion: From Bitter to Better: A Chocolate Mama’s Journey to Self-Discovery by Karen Taylor Bass — available at Barnes and Noble and independent bookstores.

 

Quote of the week: “A mother is like a flower — each one beautiful and unique.”

 

Clear the Clutter. Claim Your Power. It starts with putting yourself back in the driver’s seat.
