Well, thanks everybody for being here and listening to the show today.

00:01:15.942 --> 00:01:18.489
Joining me is my guest, erin Harrington.

00:01:18.489 --> 00:01:20.013
Hi, erin, and welcome.

00:01:20.620 --> 00:01:23.007
Hi, it's such a great pleasure to be here with you today.

00:01:23.007 --> 00:01:23.510
Thank you.

00:01:24.019 --> 00:01:25.203
You're most welcome.

00:01:25.203 --> 00:01:39.028
I am so excited to share about you and I love what you had as your header, where we met on Erin and Myself Connected on Podmatch, which is just a fabulous place to meet guests and to be on other people's shows.

00:01:39.028 --> 00:01:47.993
But you had, and I'm going to just say, are you curious to find out how to retrain your brain from stress to success in just five minutes a day?

00:01:47.993 --> 00:01:50.829
If you are, then stay with us for this episode.

00:01:50.829 --> 00:01:55.271
So I want to just share with our audience a little bit, erin, about yourself.

00:01:55.271 --> 00:01:57.847
Save you having to talk about yourself.

00:01:57.847 --> 00:02:03.629
It's not always the easiest place to be when someone says introduce yourself and tell me what the audience needs to know.

00:02:03.629 --> 00:02:05.780
So I'm just going to share that.

00:02:05.921 --> 00:02:12.760
Erin helps busy, overwhelmed high achievers find wholeness by aligning their work with their well-being.

00:02:12.760 --> 00:02:23.266
Well-being needs to be in capital letters, empowering them to integrate success across all areas of their lives and make time for what truly matters.

00:02:23.266 --> 00:02:31.103
So I know this comes from being anchored in a lifelong passion of self-care and spirituality, and you shared that.

00:02:31.103 --> 00:02:55.663
Your journey began with balancing life goals amid significant challenges, and, as a top performing sales leader in a startup that successfully went public, you faced your own burnout, despite being so successful in what you were doing, and then where you are now staying, confronted with complex neurological disabilities.

00:02:55.663 --> 00:03:10.427
You wanted to find how to manage your own stress and your own well-being, and that took you to fueling your passion which it often does when we manage to find answers to our own stresses and struggles for helping others.

00:03:10.427 --> 00:03:15.890
And you now have concepts and tools that you're going to be able to share, not only with us.

00:03:16.211 --> 00:03:18.841
But then I want to share with you that Erin also has.

00:03:18.841 --> 00:03:33.926
She is the author of the Whole Life Planner, which is an integrated toolkit for purpose, productivity and peace and we're going to dig into that a little bit in a moment and where you might be able to find that and Erin is also the founder of Soul Values.

00:03:33.926 --> 00:03:37.454
So, erin, let's dive into this conversation.

00:03:37.454 --> 00:03:39.003
I have one question for you.

00:03:39.003 --> 00:03:48.084
When I was reading your bio, where you said, when you're not teaching, coaching or speaking, you are searching for heart-shaped rocks along the main coast.

00:03:48.084 --> 00:03:50.748
Tell me what you do with those rocks.

00:03:51.751 --> 00:03:55.243
Oh, my goodness, I have them all over my home.

00:03:55.243 --> 00:03:57.389
They're outside of my home.

00:03:57.389 --> 00:04:04.247
I have several in my bedroom, some here in the office, but I can't reach them to show you.

00:04:04.247 --> 00:04:08.782
Um, big ones, really big ones, out in my garden.

00:04:08.782 --> 00:04:11.588
Um, yeah, it's.

00:04:11.628 --> 00:04:17.043
Is there a story behind you know why does Maine coastline produce beautiful heart-shaped rocks?

00:04:17.043 --> 00:04:19.430
Or is it just your gift in finding?

00:04:20.293 --> 00:04:24.863
yes, so I'll start by saying that Maine is my happy place, right, I didn't?

00:04:24.863 --> 00:04:31.935
Um, I grew up in Maine, in the summer, starting as a teenager and through my early adult years.

00:04:31.935 --> 00:04:38.889
So this is in southern Maine, kennebunkport, maine, and it just, you know, there was a family home there.

00:04:38.889 --> 00:04:41.730
The place was very, very peaceful.

00:04:41.730 --> 00:04:45.572
You know, one side the ocean, on the other side, the tidal marsh, and things just were very peaceful.

00:04:45.572 --> 00:04:50.766
You know, one side the ocean, on the other side, the tidal marsh, and things just were very slow in Maine.

00:04:51.208 --> 00:05:02.060
And you know their motto, their state motto, is the way life should be, and truly I feel like most people who live in Maine embrace this motto and this lifestyle.

00:05:02.060 --> 00:05:21.250
And I don't know, for whatever reason, maine has just become Maine, which is a massive state, has become my happy place, and so whenever I can take a road to the ocean, take a trip to the ocean, then I head straight to Maine and Heart Shaped Rock.

00:05:21.250 --> 00:05:25.279
Searching for them has to do with it's sort of a meditative experience.

00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:32.567
It just happens, I'm just there, I'm observing, I'm present, and then there you go, heart-shaped rock sort of appears.

00:05:32.567 --> 00:05:34.427
So that's how it usually happens.

00:05:35.100 --> 00:05:57.562
I just I love that because a friend of mine just recently shared that she gave somebody a heart-shaped rock as a gift to carry with them in their pocket and then, when they thought of her, to just realize, and they shared a picture where you describing man just sounds absolutely peaceful, it just sounds so beautiful and this visual was at a river, in the middle of nowhere, you know, with this heart shaped rock.

00:05:57.562 --> 00:06:05.711
So I just love how these things connect when we share things and it just sparks something, you know, something else, to make you think of something else.

00:06:06.459 --> 00:06:10.492
Yeah, I appreciate that because you know my daughter, I have given a number of them away.

00:06:10.492 --> 00:06:14.980
My daughter has a few in her dorm room and I just want to add one more comment.

00:06:14.980 --> 00:06:28.485
I'm really intrigued about how rocks are formed differently along the coast versus rivers and the shape of them differently along the coast versus rivers and the shape of them.

00:06:28.485 --> 00:06:35.024
So I have heart-shaped rocks from Maine along the riverbeds as opposed to the ocean as well, I prefer the ocean, but the river is really interesting too rivers.

00:06:35.464 --> 00:06:43.685
I encourage people to search for that happy place, because we all need that in our lives, and I think that's going to tie into some of the things that we're going to talk about today.

00:06:43.685 --> 00:06:51.336
But let's go to this word, burnout, which is so prevalent for so many different reasons.

00:06:51.336 --> 00:06:59.793
But you just shared that, in spite of being the successful sales leader, you found yourself overworking and everything going out of balance.

00:06:59.793 --> 00:07:07.884
So now that you've journeyed along to where you are now, you know what advice do you give to somebody who is absolutely struggling.

00:07:07.925 --> 00:07:54.540
They're ambitious, they're driven, they still want, but there's this piece missing, and the piece missing is that burnout when you're in a state of burnout or overwhelm or fear or stress any of those things your amygdala, the tiny little walnut shaped thing in the back of your brain, is being activated and it's sending out distress signals to the rest of your brain which, by the way, those distress signals make it harder for you to think clearly, to lead effectively, to make good decisions, to make strategic decisions right.

00:07:54.540 --> 00:08:12.661
So just knowing that there's this chemical reaction that takes place in your brain if you're not fully aligned, you want to take that seriously because, yes, absolutely, you're going to find burnout can go for so long, right.

00:08:13.362 --> 00:08:22.925
And if you don't recognize that you're being hijacked by what's happening in your brain, you just continue Exactly.

00:08:23.245 --> 00:08:26.232
Exactly which is which can be really well it can.

00:08:26.232 --> 00:08:32.832
It can cause pain physical pain, emotional pain, relationship relationship pain, all sorts of struggles.

00:08:32.832 --> 00:08:47.524
Right, there is a way to hack that stress response, to regulate your stress response, and I want to help people understand how I learned to do that in my own experience, because it's kind of fascinating.

00:08:47.524 --> 00:09:03.936
I spent a number of, I spent a number of years working through this and I went from a place of both burnout from the sales job, which I ultimately retired early from that career because it just taking too much of myself away.

00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:06.058
And so I retired from that career.

00:09:06.058 --> 00:09:14.899
A number of years later, after my first and my second child was born, I had some mysterious symptoms, scary, scary symptoms.

00:09:14.899 --> 00:09:24.431
I was first diagnosed with a stroke and then a whole bunch of other sort of question mark things, but they suspected I had a neuromuscular disease.

00:09:24.431 --> 00:09:25.926
They didn't know what it was.

00:09:25.926 --> 00:09:34.849
Ultimately ultimately I was diagnosed with some very serious life threatening conditions which terrified me.

00:09:35.389 --> 00:09:36.991
And that's when.

00:09:36.991 --> 00:09:41.760
That's when I got really interested in regulating the stress response.

00:09:41.760 --> 00:10:09.730
Because I under, because when I felt into that fear and naturally I mean, if you're, if you have two young children by your side and you're experiencing a whole bunch of really confusing symptoms and you've seen, you know 50, 100 doctors and nobody knows what's wrong with you, but they agree that it's confusing and that there's something serious happening my mind went to a lot of dark places.

00:10:09.730 --> 00:10:10.251
I was.

00:10:10.251 --> 00:10:12.437
I was terrified of dying.

00:10:12.437 --> 00:10:31.966
There's no doubt about it that every day I was terrified of dying and that was a really bad place to be because it impacted my effectiveness as a parent, as a wife, friend, as a patient right as a patient to get better.

00:10:31.966 --> 00:10:38.158
It held me back from pursuing my professional goals Just at a really high level.

00:10:38.158 --> 00:10:46.011
Because I want to share this how I finally figured this out I had a neurologist that I would check in with every six months or so.

00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:55.129
I still have this neurologist and she would always start the appointment with how's your stress level Before, how are your symptoms?

00:10:55.129 --> 00:11:06.793
So it would go in that order and after a number of appointments with her like that, I Dr Holler, why do you always ask about my stress.

00:11:06.793 --> 00:11:07.494
Are you just?

00:11:07.494 --> 00:11:08.903
Are you just being friendly?

00:11:08.903 --> 00:11:11.809
I mean, what is going on with this approach?

00:11:11.809 --> 00:11:17.150
And she's like well, that's because of your autonomic nervous dysfunction that you have.

00:11:17.150 --> 00:11:29.812
Your brain is oftentimes in the extreme of one end or the extreme of the other end, so, for example, your heart rate might, or your blood pressure might, be super, super, super, dangerously low.

00:11:29.812 --> 00:11:48.705
That's the parasympathetic state, or the stress response state, where you're like, or the stress response state where you're like you can't think clearly your heart, your tachycardia, all sorts of stuff like that.

00:11:48.725 --> 00:12:03.493
And so she said, you know, when we learn about stress, we then understand how it's, how the connection between your brain and the symptoms that you're experiencing and that way I get a more clear, a more whole picture of what's happening with you as a patient changed my life for sure.

00:12:03.493 --> 00:12:15.186
So I went on to study more about this neuroplasticity and how to regulate your autonomic nervous system, and what I found was really shocking.

00:12:15.186 --> 00:12:17.351
What I found, yeah, what I found was really shocking.

00:12:18.640 --> 00:12:20.083
And did that then lead you.

00:12:20.083 --> 00:12:28.755
You know at what stage did the whole life planner come into being, when did you create that and how did that fit in with everything?

00:12:39.860 --> 00:12:40.743
the brand Soul Values actually came to me.

00:12:40.743 --> 00:12:42.067
I want to say a dream, but it wasn't really a dream.

00:12:42.067 --> 00:12:42.307
At the time.

00:12:42.307 --> 00:12:43.412
My heart was stopping and they didn't know it.

00:12:43.412 --> 00:12:44.455
I kept going in and out of.

00:12:44.455 --> 00:12:53.383
I thought I was having seizures and so I would go to this like dream state and return and it was really disorienting and stuff like that.

00:12:53.383 --> 00:13:13.663
But in one of those dreams clear as day, with like sign, like letters and sounds and lights, with soul values, and it was like you it sort of was very clear that I needed to share how to regulate your nervous system with other people so they could be more effective.

00:13:13.663 --> 00:13:19.447
So that was in 2019, when the idea came to me.

00:13:19.466 --> 00:13:35.596
The whole life planner was published a year ago and and the way it came into being was right around the time that my neurologist so in 2010, let's say gave me that clue of the connection.

00:13:35.596 --> 00:14:17.827
I started to track things like daily gratitudes and then I learned I created a worksheet for myself of 10 prompts that I had sort of pulled together from various resources that I had studied and I had also created on my own, and those 10 daily prompts allowed me, no matter how bad my day was bed bound because my muscles weren't coordinating and I had a really bad migraine and I couldn't really move except to go to the bathroom, feel good about myself and accomplish at the end of those days, right, and that was really important for me.

00:14:17.827 --> 00:14:41.125
We all have challenging days and feeling like those days are positive and you were resilient and you are empowered is important in creating more of those feel good days in the future, and so that's really where the story, the daily pages, from my book came from.

00:14:41.427 --> 00:14:59.530
That is so beautiful because gratitude I know that you know we get it shared with us time and time again medically, how it's been proven of all the incredible things, the impact on your health, the impact on various different other areas, and every now and then I explore a different way to do gratitude.

00:14:59.530 --> 00:15:12.505
So I have many different apps and different things, but currently, where I'm at at the moment is taking the date so today being the 9th and writing down nine things that I'm grateful for, and tomorrow it will be 10.

00:15:12.505 --> 00:15:23.231
And then go with the dates of the month and stretch yourself out that by the end of the month, you can write down 30 or 31, depending on the days, of things that you're grateful for.

00:15:23.231 --> 00:15:25.745
Now, I don't always stay with something like that.

00:15:25.745 --> 00:15:31.248
I love sort of experimenting and moving, you know, across different ways, but it's as you shared in the beginning.

00:15:31.248 --> 00:15:42.381
You know this neuroplasticity that we do have a way to rewire our brain and it's a gentle process and I think it's something that you know.

00:15:42.381 --> 00:15:43.565
We have to remember that.

00:15:43.565 --> 00:15:51.173
We have to think of it as watering the positive seeds and just letting them grow a little bit, a little bit, you know, at a time.

00:15:51.173 --> 00:15:54.006
But we need them, you know, and it comes with work.

00:15:54.006 --> 00:15:58.326
So, just like you've shared, you know absolutely you can't just sit there and go.

00:15:58.326 --> 00:16:01.293
You know this is going to happen and I'm just going to switch overnight.

00:16:01.293 --> 00:16:08.754
But those are important, the resilience, you know, the attention to our mind.

00:16:08.754 --> 00:16:12.005
So I would love to know, you know.

00:16:12.025 --> 00:16:16.697
There was one other thing that I wanted to ask from you is you know, this balancing, this drive?

00:16:16.697 --> 00:16:24.993
And it seems, for some reason, that you know many ambitious people and that'll be many of my listeners who are women, business owners, coaches, everybody.

00:16:24.993 --> 00:16:32.572
You know there's a certain drive and a certain ambition that takes us down this path and then, of course, the heart desire to help others.

00:16:32.572 --> 00:16:48.124
But I think often on the ambitious side, we tend to be more left brain and want the facts and the figures and then don't allow some space for dealing with our stress and burnout from the softer side, from the sage side.

00:16:48.124 --> 00:16:54.985
So what is the balance when you are ambitious and you need to find time for?

00:16:55.046 --> 00:16:56.773
you Right, so I get.

00:16:56.773 --> 00:17:01.282
I want to just say very quickly that high achievers are a unique breed, right?

00:17:01.282 --> 00:17:13.632
Because we want to do everything well, and it's hard to bread yourself out and do everything effectively and well, and I am a high achiever, so I understand that mentality.

00:17:13.632 --> 00:17:28.996
I believe that if you track both your personal goals along with your professional goals and my clients will say this too when you track things in one singular place, you're decreasing your stress.

00:17:28.996 --> 00:17:31.182
You think that you're increasing your stress, but you're're decreasing your stress.

00:17:31.182 --> 00:17:56.278
You think that you're increasing your stress, but you're actually decreasing your stress, and every little tiny action that you make to decrease stress increases your effectiveness and your ability to communicate well, to lead well, to be present for all the people in your life that you want to be present for, and so what I encourage is that people use these tools to track things like wins.

00:17:56.458 --> 00:18:04.538
At the end of the day, I encourage you to come back and this is as important as a gratitude to track your win.

00:18:04.538 --> 00:18:08.067
Some days it might be eating lunch, and that's a win.

00:18:08.067 --> 00:18:10.107
Maybe it's exercising.

00:18:10.107 --> 00:18:44.837
The second piece, at the very end of the day, is how I'll improve, and again, that's really important because we learn about ourselves every single day, but putting that knowledge into action doesn't always take place, and so you know, from my own experience, as well as that of many of my clients, I have found that when you use these tools, you're able to achieve your goals, no matter what type of roadblocks you have, and you experience more happiness and ease.

00:18:45.546 --> 00:18:57.106
I love the idea when you share one place, because I am a huge Trello fan and I know a lot of people use Trello as a means, you know, to keep control of what you're doing in work or work with clients.

00:18:57.106 --> 00:19:05.454
But I have a Trello board that is just for my morning startup routine and on that I have prompts that say to me what can I reflect back on?

00:19:05.454 --> 00:19:06.967
What did I learn from yesterday?

00:19:06.967 --> 00:19:11.006
What can I reflect back on yesterday that went well?

00:19:11.006 --> 00:19:14.212
What is my intention for today?

00:19:14.773 --> 00:19:39.515
And then what you shared about the end of the day, the celebration is so important and, within the framework that we have with positive intelligence, we call these catching these moments and then celebrating them, but embodying it, to bring it into the physical, and that might be something as simple as a smile, but it could also be, you know, doing a little movement with your body and just moving your hands around.

00:19:39.515 --> 00:19:43.972
And because so often I say to my clients you know, did you celebrate doing that?

00:19:43.972 --> 00:19:46.314
And they went yep, yep, I celebrated that, yeah, I did.

00:19:46.314 --> 00:19:49.049
Did you physically celebrate it?

00:19:49.049 --> 00:19:53.739
Embody it into yourself and just sit with that pleasure.

00:19:54.746 --> 00:20:06.714
Because once again, that's what we're trying to do neurologically is rewire our brain and reinforce the positive, because we know the negative thoughts are there, but we have to stop spiraling with them.

00:20:06.714 --> 00:20:16.851
To stop spiraling with them and, day by day, step by step, move into what I call the, you know, basically a mental gym.

00:20:16.851 --> 00:20:26.678
You know, just like we try to take care of our bodies or we eat properly, we have to approach our mind that it constantly needs our support and our tender, loving care.

00:20:26.678 --> 00:20:28.969
I love that, that's beautifully said.

00:20:29.329 --> 00:20:30.030
Beautifully said.

00:20:30.551 --> 00:20:31.073
Thank you.

00:20:31.073 --> 00:20:40.040
So, Erin, I would love for people to know a couple of things you know, to be able to work with you or find out more about what you do.

00:20:40.040 --> 00:20:43.528
I know that you mentioned and I meant to check with you before the show.

00:20:43.528 --> 00:20:57.657
You had two wonderful offers that are on your website, soulvaluescom, and I'll have a link to that in our show notes, but the daily pages is that something that people can still take up?

00:20:58.345 --> 00:21:11.156
Yes, the daily pages is my number one download, that's the 10 prompts, that in five minutes a day you can sort of set up your day and come back and track your wins and things like that.

00:21:11.156 --> 00:21:26.204
I also have another download, if you want to put it in the show notes, which is a life assessment and so that's like the wheel of life and a couple other things and it's sort of a balance at a glance assessment opportunity.

00:21:26.204 --> 00:21:28.949
If you want to have a look at that, feel free to do that too.

00:21:29.128 --> 00:21:30.451
Wonderful, and is that correct?

00:21:30.451 --> 00:21:33.134
I have soulvaluescom backslash promo.

00:21:33.134 --> 00:21:34.276
Yes, for that one.

00:21:34.276 --> 00:21:35.837
Perfect, all right, lovely.

00:21:35.837 --> 00:21:44.946
So we have the daily pages, we have the life assessments.

00:21:44.946 --> 00:21:46.549
I will have both of those available on the show notes.

00:21:46.549 --> 00:21:52.680
And then, erin, as far as just working with you as a coach, once again I'm sure they can find how to connect with you on your website.

00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:56.114
Anything, is it one-on-one that you prefer to do?

00:21:56.114 --> 00:21:57.632
Are you doing group programs?

00:21:58.265 --> 00:22:03.798
My primary coaching are I have one-to-one, and it's a 12-week program.

00:22:03.798 --> 00:22:05.151
It's a 90-day program.

00:22:05.404 --> 00:22:09.595
So I do it along with that's long each each copy of my book is.

00:22:09.595 --> 00:22:16.536
So that's my basic coaching, and my advanced coaching is a six month program, Again one to one.

00:22:16.536 --> 00:22:23.675
I do have a number of my VIP clients who want, who have expressed interest in group connections.

00:22:23.675 --> 00:22:29.585
So I may be doing a group cohort as well in the near future, but I'm not set up for that just yet.

00:22:29.585 --> 00:22:40.596
If anyone would like to reach me directly, they can just head over to soulvaluescom and click on contact me, or you may send me an email at erin at soulvaluescom.

00:22:42.105 --> 00:22:42.666

And then I know, as far as social media, we can find you on LinkedIn and I will pop that link in there.

00:22:49.093 --> 00:23:02.585
Well, Erin, thank you for just sharing some encouragement and for people to just realise the importance of taking care of themselves and that you fought through to find a solution.

00:23:02.585 --> 00:23:15.419
And look how beautiful where you are today, being able to share and help others take this journey and move from burnout with high achievement to having a balanced life.

00:23:15.419 --> 00:23:20.156
