E213: Best of 2022 / Holiday Party!

One of the best ways to wrap up the year is to celebrate how far you’ve come with the people you appreciate most! Thank you for joining me this year, and for this holiday special…


Leave a review on Apple Podcasts

[00:39] This is the final episode of the year, and as tradition goes, we always end the year with our Holiday Party episode where we countdown the top five episodes of the year!


This is a great opportunity to revisit some of your favourites + a reminder to celebrate everything you’ve achieved this year. What better way to celebrate than with each other!


What’s pretty cool is that we’ve kept this tradition going from the very beginning of the show.


Past Holiday Party Episodes:

Episode 160: 2021

Episode 109: 2020 

Episode 59: 2019


Alright, as long as it is safe for you to do so - meaning you aren’t driving or anything - I would love for us to raise a glass together to cheer for this past year. Today I’m drinking a classic hot chocolate with marshmallows and oat milk. Mmm


To the ups and downs… to the lessons and to the gifts. This year has been an adventure, and we’ve made it through. May we grow stronger and wiser from where we’ve come, and may the new year bring us support, abundance, and magic.


SALUT!


As much as I love the tradition of this show, I did want to do something new this year. If you’ve been a long time listener, you would have noticed a few changes to the show! This year I started incorporating little “book report'' episodes! 


In human design my profile has a “1” in it. This means that a personal quality of mine is being an “investigator.” This quality makes me eager to learn everything there is about a particular subject or topic. I love diving into books, blogs, podcasts, posts, conversations with experts and so much more. It can be a little obsessive, but the good news is it makes me better at what I do because I’m always learning new things and ways to apply them.


In these book report style episodes, I share some of my biggest takeaways from the book as well as how I apply the techniques, concepts and ideas in my own coaching programs and services. 


They’re great episodes if you’re looking for a quick book summary before reading it for yourself, and/or if you’re interested in taking action on your immediate goals and habits!


The books I’ve read and shared on the show this year are:

Episode 174: The Four Tendencies by Gretchen Rubin

The Four Tendencies Book


Episode 182: GRIT by Angela Duckworth

Grit Book


Episode 199: Limitless by Jim Kwik

Limitless Book


Episode 212: Atomic Habits by James Clear

Atomic Habits Book

I plan on continuing with this style of episode and featuring four new books for next year! If you have any book requests or suggestions, you can send me a DM on instagram @vallavignelife



While these book report episodes were popular this year, they were no match for our top 5 most popular episodes of the year. 

[5] E166: A Gentle Approach to a Kickass Routine ft. Candice


[04:00] Our 5th most popular episode of 2022 was episode 166: A Gentle Approach to a Kickass Routine with Candice


This year I featured some of my clients and community members who have worked with me in creating their new healthy habits and routines. My guest Candice was one of the client features.


Candice and I became fast friends when we met in Belize almost three years ago. And even though we live in different countries, and are currently on opposite sides of the world, we still manage to stay in touch and talk almost daily!


Through our time of knowing each other Candice and I have worked together on and off with a number of different habits, routines, and rituals. 



Some of the big transformational pieces from our work together has been overcoming the “all or nothing” beliefs: “If I don’t do all the new habits at once, then there’s no point in doing them at all.”


As we worked through the “go hard or go home” mindset, Candice learned that a more gentle approach to herself and with her routines was really the key in creating the perfect, kick-ass routine for her.


At the time of the production for this podcast episode, Candice is in the midst of more travel! I wanted to know how Candice was taking her practices on her travels and into the new year.


1. How are you balancing your routines as you travel? Are there lots of changes you have to make while you’re away, can you tell us about those?


Candice: I had to reframe how I hold routines while I travel. That's been like probably the biggest change and shift is that like recognizing that my routines and my habits are a toolkit that I can I can pull from in any given moment based on for that time, right and so instead of having to do all of my routines and being more flexible, and also being a little bit more kind and gentle while traveling, not not always going to be able to work out or not always gonna have the space to meditate or whatever it is, like whenever I talked to you last I was on a 19 hour train journey, right? It's like not working out on that train. Also, like I got up at 3am didn't get into bed until after midnight. And so like that day, wasn't able to like meditate, tried to journal a little bit on the train, but it's like very, very bumpy and so being gentle with myself and flexible, has been key, I would say into finding that balance has really been about flexibility and introspection. There are a lot of changes that I've had to make and a lot of it comes back to introspection, like being aware of where I'm at energy wise and whatnot. Noticing when I need social time when I need to give myself alone time where I can just focus on myself journal, you know, create that space.


A lot of it too is prioritizing like while I'm traveling, it's really easy to get like wrapped up in all of the, like, the busyness of travel and doing everything, seeing everything, like a routine will ground me a little bit and so I've had to adjust it quite a bit and be really mindful about my mornings to just to set the day, the tone of the day and then my evenings I really have to prioritize, excuse me, really have to prioritize making even just like a few minutes for like gratitude practice.


Journaling practice and normally back home like my gratitude practices can Evening, Evening journal, with gratitude but while I'm traveling it's way easy. like it's I'm doing such cool stuff that it's easy to incorporate the gratitude practice throughout the day. which that's another thing that I like to bring home with me from this trip.


2. With traveling more, and being in different time zones, different schedules, and of course new places, what rituals are you practicing to ground yourself and be gentle with yourself?


Candice: I kind of answered this. The second question about that last one. So I think that with traveling in your schedules and being really flexible and everyday things are different. The rituals that I'm practicing now are like very pared down.


Like, I try to work out and move my body every day and sometimes that means like, jump roping, and I have the space energy etc or doing yoga if I really need to, like, just have a moment you know. Like, I try to work out and move my body every day and sometimes that means like, jump roping, and I have the space energy etc or doing yoga if I really need to, like, just have a moment you know.


One of the big rituals that is very consistent when I'm home or when I'm traveling is my meditation practice and my journaling practice. Journaling practice is actually a lot better when I'm traveling. I have so much to say and like so much to write down. So those are things that are really self aware. about when I need a long time to prioritize that.


Also, I forget about it, but it's vital to talk to my friends and family. Easy to be lonely when you're solo traveling and really kept up with keeping in contact. ANd that ritual is a new one for this trip.


3. Any extra wisdom or lessons you’ve learned this year that the listener would value?


Candice: The biggest piece of wisdom that I've learned in the last year or so from travel and habits and the 21 Day Challenge is your habits are a toolkit and they are meant to be flexible Here like the introspection to know which habits are going to help ground you or reset you what's going to be the best for you in the long term is case like having introspection but also being kind and courteous with yourself and you don't do all because you can't. And that’s fine. I think it’s about introspection and being kind and loving towards yourself, throughout your process.


It really sounds like Candice has come a long way with the loving kindness toward herself since we last worked together. It’s so easy to be hard on ourselves, and I am guilty of this also. 


It warms my heart to hear this transformation and wisdom from Candice, and sharing the stories of community members has been one of my favourite additions to the show! Some of the other episodes featuring clients are:


Episode 165: Exponential Growth Through Gratitude with Rubani

Episode 177: This Powerful Starting Point Helped a Wellness Leader be a Better Mom & Jumpstart her New Business with Steph

Episode 181: Giving Yourself Grace Through the Process of Creating New Self Care Practices with Suzanne

Episode 185: Committing to Game-Changing Habits One Win at a Time with Rae

Episode 188: Prioritizing Yourself is Not Selfish with Kaylie

One cool thing I discovered this year was that Spotify does a “wrapped” for podcast creators! And to my excitement, the podcast has grown SO MUCH this year with an 80% increase in subscribers, 61% increase in streams, 59% hours listened, and 42% more listeners of the show!

We’ve also received so many more wonderful reviews on Apple Podcasts, this one is from:

LindaOrsiniYoga

I have been loving the Women’s Empowerment podcast for several months now. Not only does Valerie have such a warm and welcoming voice, she also shares important information and tips that are relevant to life right now. I especially loved her podcast about the difference between a Habit and a Ritual. She has a great mixture of facts with applicable stories to help reinforce them. Thank you for all your hard work and for all the interesting guests on your show.

[4] E164: Manifest Your Goals with Mindfulness ft. Junielle


[13:32] Our fourth most popular episode of 2022 is episode 164: Manifest Your Goals with Mindfulness with Junielle Rosher


This episode aired almost a full year ago. It was SUCH a great topic to feature in the new year, and I’m glad the audience connected with it because it was a great conversation!


At the time, our guest Junielle, went by Elle, and even though I’ve updated the name of the title and in the thumbnail of the episode, we didn’t re-record the episode, so you’ll still hear us call her Elle. I know reclaiming her name was a really important part of her journey this year, let’s hear from Junielle how this evolution came to be and how it’s going for her now:


Junielle: It's been about two months since I have fully embraced my name Giniel again and because of that, I don't think that I have fully thought through and looks back to see just how much has changed and how much I have changed and just this evolution, because, you know, like your name is such a huge part of your identity.


In most cases, we're not changing our legal name. Aside from when, you know, we're getting married, and if that's a choice that you decide for me, so for the most part, the name that you were given at birth is the one that you keep. 


And what happens when you have such a love hate relationship with that name? Not because you don't like yourself, but because of how people interact with it.


For the longest time as a kid, I first grew up in a neighborhood where I looked different from everyone. There are probably one or two other black kids in the school and there'd be times where people would ask, you know, if we were related and so I was already looking different than the kids taller than the majority of the kids. And so I just like what a lot of kids want to do at this time. Just wanted to fit in.


Whenever there was, you know, like a substitute teacher that would come in.


You know, there just be those moments of them going through the list of names fairly quickly. And then coming to my more ethnic name and stumbling like crazy. Were like, there would be times where I knew that my name was coming up next, so I just said my name and just saved all of us that pain. But through that I really felt unheard. I felt I didn't feel seen. And so when I grew up, you know, went to University and graduated and then finally realized that I wanted to start my own business. I reinvented myself essentially, you know, like going to a new school where nobody knows you. Like, I liked meeting so many entrepreneurs. So I kind of did. Beyonce Sasha Fierce version of having an alter ego and took out, which had already been my social media name for a couple of years and ran with it. And through that I was able to temporarily step away from Junielle and just kind of had this blank canvas where I could create the person that I wanted to have a different persona without And so there were so many things I learned from really identifying and stepping into Elle.


For example, in people-pleasing was a huge thing for me, where I just found it so hard to speak up for myself and take up space, but with Elle and being an entrepreneur you had to do that in order for people to even know what it was that you did.


And so, through that I was able to work through a lot of that pain and just cultivate this new more confident version of myself. and for that I'm so grateful you know, I'm really happy that I did that.


Because of how it got me here to where I am right now where now that I've kind of had that distance from Junielle kind of like the distance makes the heart grow fonder idea where because I in the entrepreneurship space, I was Elle to reclaim Junielle was a huge thing for me because it's only really the people who know me, who knew me, just on a personal level, who would call me engineer, but to fully embody that in every single space that I was in was really really big for me because I, I think I finally understood that. Back then I didn't have the language and the tools to stand up for myself.


Like you know, in grade school, and high school and just like growing up in like my young adult life, whereas now, I was able to say, well, actually, this is how you say my name and I gave myself that permission to stand up for myself in that way and not be scared or defensive or worried that the way that I corrected someone or just the act of me correcting someone would be a bad thing where I would then have to comfort them.


You know, back then it was very reactionary and I kind of assumed that I kind of just had to deal with whatever was being given to me.


Whereas now it was me learning that I really needed to teach people how to treat me and how to do the very simple thing of saying my name whether it took me one time to teach them and they caught it on the first try. or after the 20th try.


They finally understood it, you know, it's actually to be honest with you, even family members still don't even spell my name right. they say it right but they don't spell it right. And I now have the courage to say well actually, this is how you spell it, you know regardless of how they react because I was so afraid of that beforehand.


being able to speak up and feeling like I couldn't tell people or teach people how to interact with me or how to communicate with me or how to speak with me, but rather that this started with me. And until I got whenever I felt confident in who I was - nothing else was going to change.


And so that is the story of how I started off this as Junielle went back to Elle in the entrepreneurship space, and came back to Junielle in all areas of my life.


I’m so grateful for this share because when I do this countdown and prepare for this episode in particular, I obviously check out the stats and see where the podcasts are landing, but I also relisten to each of the top 5 episodes.


And when I was listening to this episode with Junielle, and I kept hearing her repeat the points of confidence and loving yourself, and I had to emphasize that with her own story and journey, since she’s been able to step into her own power and confidence through reclaiming her name.


We’ve had 12 guests on the show this year and each and every one of them has brought so much passion and helpful information.

[3] E188: Prioritizing Yourself is Not Selfish ft. Kaylie

[24:46] It makes me so happy to see not one but TWO of the client episodes in the top five this year, because I believe these stories and experiences from real-life people are so important in seeing the possibilities of lasting positive change in your own life too!


Which brings us to the 3rd most popular episode of 2022, episode 188: Prioritizing Yourself is Not Selfish with Kaylie


We had fun in this episode chatting about how we met at the Moon Course on a trip to Guatemala. One of many things Kaylie and I shared in common was our dislike of routine and structure, and yet here we were, working on creating supportive routines!


In our episode together, we talked about how when we prioritize ourselves it inspires others to do the same. So I wanted to ask Kaylie two questions as we head into the new year:


1. How are you reminding yourself to prioritize your own self care and needs over the holidays and into the new year?


Kaylie: So one thing that I've adopted recently to help prioritize myself actually came from you Val, was that they were seeing the habit is not going to the workout but putting on your shoes, something and so I translated that to my own habits, habits not doing skits. Unrolling my yoga mat, and I know as soon as it's unrolled, like I live in a small cabin there's no other places to walk other than, like, on the mat. So as soon as I unroll it. and so that has completely changed my perspective. This habit that I've had for a long time has brought the energy.


Another way that I'm prioritizing myself is making sure I get enough sleep. Tonight if I'm tired, there's no way I am going to be socializing. There's no way I'm going to be baking yummy cookies, or bring joy to whatever event I'm at, so I'm really making sure that I get enough sleep. Luckily, up here in Canada, the days are a lot shorter. And it's only three o'clock and I can tell that the sun's starting to set so that makes it a lot easier when the nights are so long. helps me sleep But that's yeah that's essential for getting.


The way I remind myself to keep up these good habits is I have a daily planner, and I write down When I have completed my yoga. And I also check back often to my sleep app on my phone and I keep track of how much sleep I'm getting.


So yeah, those are some of the ways I remind myself to prioritize my needs.

​​


2. In what ways has putting your own needs and routines first inspired others to do the same this year? (


Kaylie: So along with recording on your podcast Val, I also had the joy of recording on another friend's podcast and I know we spoke a lot about habits about putting ourselves first we spoke about loads of things, but I know that in that podcast I do talk about small, seemingly insignificant actions that can lead to bigger changes.


I know that that inspired my friend who was interviewing me, and also I’ve had a few other friends listen to another podcast is called


Heaven on Earth Podcast (episode with Kaylie) and yeah, so I like to think through my amazing friends podcasts, to inspire other people.


I’d also like to think that through amazing friend’s podcasts, I’ve inspired other people.


I also like to think that I’ve inspired people through example. So I do like to take that quiet time, and usually in the mornings I take time to stretch or meditate, and anyone who has spent time with me sees me doing that. Usually my boyfriend or my family or close friends. I’ve had friends see me do that and decide they will take that time today as well. My mom has started a practice of her own, and whether that’s through me or not, I’m not sure, but I like to think that I’ve inspired through example. 


3. Any extra wisdom or lessons you’ve learned this year that the listener would value?


Kaylie: One thing I really learned this year was balance in lifestyle. And that's kind of a constantly evolving lesson. Balance is never stationary and what can be a good healthy balance for one month doesn't necessarily need a good healthy balance for the next month. And so with plenty of changing things in my life, I moved, I started up my work that I had pre [pandemic] which was working for myself. I went through multiple big lifestyle changes. ​​And so I was really adjusting what balance meant for myself.


It felt like every month there was a new challenge for a new balance to find, and maybe I didn't quite have as much peace as I was hoping in the summer months. So even if I felt like I wasn't getting the rest, I crave June, saying I feel like I'm getting it now. So in a way, even month to month I wasn't necessarily at a balance I wanted for the whole year, my energy out versus energy in has found a quite healthy place and you know I'm gonna keep, keep working on it and prioritizing. Keep these healthy habits, whatever a healthy balance is for me at that time.



I love seeing how the habits and routines our community has implemented evolve over the year and with the changing of the seasons. It’s perfect for maintaining healthy lifestyle practices, while keeping things fresh and flowing in our lives.

[2] E167: Ways to Love Yourself Deeply ft. Blaire

[35:12] The second most popular episode of 2022 is episode 167: Ways to Love Yourself Deeply with Blaire Caplan


This episode is moving, inspirational, and speaks so boldly about the importance, power, and practices surrounding self love.


At the time of this podcast recording Blaire was sharing that she had surpassed over 700 days of the Miracle Morning routine featured in Hal Elrod’s book! I’m curious to know if Blaire is still working on this routine, or what her morning routine looks like today!


1. Are you still practicing the Miracle Morning Routine? If not, what does your morning routine look like now?


Blaire: Yes, I am still practicing the miracle morning routine and turned into a sort of ritual for myself. I'm not doing a full hour meditation and you know full two hour routine anymore. I'm sitting pretty at like 1520 minutes a day. but I'm still doing it. it is day 1062 Actually, which is wild to say out loud, but it's something I'm pretty proud of. So yeah, still meditating, affirming myself, visualizing my day doing my yoga is my exercise, reading and writing, still doing the whole routine.


Blaire shares so many incredible one-liners and affirmations in this episode that I suggested she create an affirmation card deck, for people to pull, and she replied “It’s on my future projects list for 2022”


2. What future projects or goals have you achieved this year? Were they on your goals list, or did they manifest as more of a pleasant surprise this year?


Blarie: Yes, the affirmation deck is in the works, it is actually entirely drafted and then we've got intentions of having it go to print for 2023. So that is super exciting. I'm very excited to just share words of love with the world because God knows we need it! 


Some other goals that I reached that weren't necessarily goals at first, I actually am now a level three Reiki practitioner and I am in two trainings, one to become a Reiki Master and one to become a Shaman.


It seems very fitting at this point but I never thought that I would be taking that route so very pleasantly surprised and I am just so excited to bring such deep healing to the world.


Lastly, Blaire has such epic wisdom. I wanted to ask her about self-love during the holidays and as we do our future dreaming for 2023:


3. What words of wisdom can you share for the listener during the ups and downs of the holiday season? As well as some self-love tips or practices for creating their goals or dreams for the new year?


Blaire: Some words of wisdom for the ups and downs: let it be what it needs to be. You know, there's a lot of wisdom in the downs and there's a lot of fun in the up so you'll either be having fun or learning a lot. Either way, it's good, you know, it's good if you let yourself see it that way.


​​I also think it would be a good idea to get into the practice of reflection, you know, at the end of the day or at the end of interaction or experience or event, you know, you can just ask yourself like what went right? What went right today? And asking yourself that question, I think, really opens up a new perspective.


For creating I like that you say goals and dreams. I'm not a fan of resolutions. Everything is exactly as it needs to be. Nothing is wrong. There's nothing to resolve. But I am a big fan of setting intentions for ourselves and you know, tangible actions and steps and plans and intentions are wonderful.


But lately, I've just started to focus more on what feels good instead of what sounds right. So, I guess my tip would be to ask yourself, what makes you feel good? What makes you laugh? What makes you smile? What brings your inner child out, and then set an intention to do more of those things in the new year.


You know I think true success is radical joy. What's the point of going through all the hardship if we can have a little bit of fun too.



I love hearing about how the year goes for the Women’s Empowerment guests and community! Especially with these episodes from the beginning of the year, with the time that has passed there’s bound to be changes. 


Even in my own business things have evolved over the last year. I’ve really shifted into simplifying my offers and systems. One of the ways I’ve done this is with a new valuable free offer for the community to help you create your new habits and rituals.

It’s called Build Better Habits and it’s your step-by-step guide to creating consistent habits that matter.

You know... the ones that bring you closer to the best version of yourself, and make a greater impact on the world around you!

[1] E168: Building Trust with Yourself

[41:00] You’ve made it to the number one episode of 2022! With over 875 downloads, this is actually the number one episode of all time (so far)! The most popular episode of 2022 is episode 168 Building Trust with Yourself, featuring yours truly!


I was a little bit surprised that this was the most downloaded episode because it’s very different from any other show on the podcast. This was actually a recording I did with Coach Kasia Bradford for her From Timid to Confident Summit. She reached out to me around this time last year I believe to be a part of her summit, and I was thrilled to be included.


After we recorded, and after the launch of the summit, Kaisa sent me the recording and I used it for this episode. What’s fun about this particular conversation is that I am the guest and I share a pretty detailed version of my journey which was really exciting for me. 


So Kaisa, thank you so much for including me in your summit, and for being part of this holiday party/countdown!


If there’s one thing we can take away from my own story and journey, I hope it’s that: we need to listen to our internal compass, our gut instincts, and take big leaps! There is so much joy, adventure, and abundance waiting for us when we accept the call to it!
