Updates from Heidi M Hovan

Ask yourself: What do I want? What would make me happy? What’s the one major thing in my life right now that, if I changed it, would bring about the joy I want?

Of all the things successful people do to accelerate their path to the healthy, balanced and financially secure lifestyle they want, working with a coach is at the top of the list. 

If you're like me, you've been jolted out of sleep this year, or at least out of routine.

It’s time to emerge from the fog and transform your life into the one you’ve been dreaming about.
It’s time to create what I'm going to call “your best life.”
One thing I've done this year is realize I’m big into getting what you want in the 7 major areas of your life. It’s something I learned from Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl—The OolaGuys—who teach how to create balance in our unbalanced world.

Now, as a woman training to be a Certified Oola Life Coach, I help clients address what’s not working for them in the areas of fitness, finance, field (career), family, faith, friends and fun. Then we go to work correcting those stressors and bringing about the lifestyle, relationships and financial security they need to be happy, balanced and growing.
So what could the OolaLife look like for you?
For the next few weeks, I’d like to challenge you to decide—then help you go to work overcoming the current stress of these crazy times we're in, and create your “BEST LIFE.”

Start Today: What’s Not Working
To begin our journey together, let’s take inventory. While tons of new stressors recently dropped into our lives, most people already had imbalances that kept stress at an all-time high. To begin, write down your list of what’s not working in your life, so you can refer back to it. I’ll tell you in the coming weeks how to begin lowering your stress level. For instance, are you struggling with:
Fitness: Excess weight? Poor nutrition? Infrequent exercise?
Finance: Crushing debt? No retirement plan? Too many bills?
Family: No boundaries? Marriage on life support?
Field: Career stress? Job loss? Low pay or no benefits?
Faith: Poor relationship with God? No time for daily study?
Friends: Toxic friends that bring you down? No mentors?
Fun: No time for fun? Waiting until you’re older or retired?

Whatever’s stressing you, make your list, then share below where you want to make changes (but hey, don't reveal super-personal details!). In my next post, I’ll ask you to start dreaming (big time) about the “new normal” you want in these areas.

Of course, the 7 areas above come from The OolaGuys. If you’ve been following my past posts, you know that I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy to bring my followers the Oola formula via a 10-week coaching experience designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Message me and we can jump on a call about it.  And be sure to click HERE to never miss notification about another blog post!

I'm curious!  What changes are you excited to make to transform your life to the BEST LIFE EVER from what we thought was going to be a topsy turvy change?

Sometimes in life, things happen that can shake you.  Can I get an "amen?"  I feel like we've had a year of that.  There's enough confusion and stress that now people are snapping in response to a word.  Literally this year has brought us to a tinder box of stress, anger, frustration, and confusion.  I'm seeing people fly off the handle at the slightest irritation.  We've all been on the receiving end of tense words.

This post is about what you can do during this time.  I don't have all the answers, and I can't wave a magic wand, but I will tell you what I do.  I'd LOVE to hear your thoughts and comments, as well.

St. Paul, as an “ambassador in chains,” was primarily responsible for teaching the church what the Lord’s mission was as the church spread like wildfire.  In a time of intense persecution, the church exponentially grew.  Let that sink in!
