To be honest, my first instinct when I am stressed or scared or uncertain is to contract. Make myself small. Make myself safe. And, that is a normal, perfectly acceptable way to handle the incredible amount of stress and pressure that almost all of us face on a daily basis in 2020.

But, I noticed over the course of the year that there are people who are facing this reality and choosing to expand. Given that I am on a mission to express myself fully and create space for others to express themselves fully, I have been quietly taking every chance I can to learn, watch, listen, and talk to people who when faced with challenges - expand.
Here is what Iโ€™ve learned - They also feel the stress and oftentimes DO contract but they also make the other choice - to go bigger. To be bolder. To take the shot. My next question is always - why or how? What is it that drives them?
In most cases, it is because their โ€œwhyโ€ is incredibly clear to them. They have conviction and focus that allows them to send their energy outward even when things are incredibly uncertain and timing is not necessarily โ€œoptimalโ€.

This month I had the privilege of speaking with Ashley the creator of Beauty by Day, Booty at Night fitness and lifestyle brand. A woman whose why is so strong that it makes her do the seemingly impossible - a mom and wife, a fitness instructor, a fitness model, a fitness buff herself, an entrepreneur, an aerial sports competitor, a friend, and an all-around remarkable human.
Join us we discuss all things about this budding fitness empire, Beauty by Day, Booty at Night - The hopes and aspirations for followers. And how to expand day in and day out, even when you feel like contracting.
