WTF did she just say?
Oh my goshhhhhhhhhh welcome to my podcast!!! I'm so excited that you're here and I am honoured that you choose to place ME in your AirPods every week!!!
Here's a bit about me:
My name is Sandra. I'm a business coach for women, a feng shui practitioner and a 2x national leadership award winner. In saying all of that though, I feel like I'm just a girl from Saskatchewan, who is put on this earth to inspire you to step into your power ... right fuckin' now.
I think that all too often, we convince ourselves that there is nothing we can do ... that our life "is what it is" and that ONE DAY we might be able to have the life that we dreamed of.
Uhmmmm NO.
That's bullshit.
Sorry ... but it's true. In a split second, you can choose differently. In THIS moment, you can take that courageous step toward the life you desire. It's my job, my gift and my obsession to help you share your sparkle with the world and I'm excited to get started.
You got this. Let's go.
Sandra

I'm so glad that you're here. You are listening to what the fuck did she just say with your host? That's me, sandra Priestly. I'm all about living our best life and finding our zone of brilliance and then removing the resistance so that we can go all in. I say random, crazy shit, which is why I called this podcast the way that I did, and I really hate long drawn out intros. So let's fucking go.
Speaker 1:A few years ago, one of my good friends was going to get her eyebrows. My good friends was going to get her eyebrows microbladed for the very first time, and so it was a little bit of a drive to get to this salon. She had to walk through the mall to get into this place and you know we were talking and I don't know. She and I are probably the same, but every time I have an appointment or I have to drive somewhere, I kind of second guess myself and I think, ah, do I really need that haircut? Do I really need my nails done? Do I really need that microblading appointment? Do I really have to drive in? And so I think that's probably where she was at. But we were having this serious conversation about I don't know, probably our businesses serious conversation about, I don't know, probably our businesses. And so she says to me I don't even know why I'm going to get this appointment, like I'm not even sure why. Honestly, my eyebrows are really nice. They probably just need like a little bit of a wax, like they're nice and thick and luscious, like I don't know why I'm doing this. I don't know I'm going to get this. I don't know if I'm going to get through this without pissing my pants, laughing here, anyway. So I said shit, you know what? I've never noticed your eyebrows. Like I'm for an ex-parole officer, I really have shitty observation skills. So here I'll send you a picture.
Speaker 1:She sends me this picture of her eyebrows and I've never seen they were not luscious, let me fucking tell you. Like they were like two sort of I don't know like fuzzy tadpoles with no tails, like they were like little balls and there was like really very, very little hair on the and the balls themselves were sort of like I don't know scattered, like they were not good eyebrows. They were not good. And so while she was getting ready and while she was driving, like we were talking and just pissing our pants laughing, I sent her a picture of mine, which I don't know what the fuck I was doing either, because I quickly thereafter booked a microblading appointment for myself. Why were we out in public like that, oh my God.
Speaker 1:So the funny thing was like we were laughing so hard at the state of our eyebrows that we had never noticed. Like it was almost shocking, like we needed glasses for the last 40 years and then finally just put them on and noticed, oh wait, what the hell is on my face. And so throughout the next little while you know she's she was driving and saying, okay, like these are so fucking bad, I'm almost embarrassed to walk through the mall like this. Like really, it was hilarious to the point where, like every once in a while, probably at least once a year, I send her the picture that she sent me of her eyebrows, and I sent her the picture that I took of myself, the selfie of mine. That looks ridiculous. Like I have one eyebrow is way higher than the other. Like what the fuck. That looks ridiculous. Like one eyebrow is way higher than the other, like what the fuck.
Speaker 1:And so the reason that I'm telling you this ridiculous story is that immediately I thought how many things do we just not pay attention to. We are sort of on autopilot. We are just going through the motions. We slap on some makeup, we pull back our hair. We don't realize until all of a sudden we do, that there's something in our business that we don't really like. We don't realize the baseboards need painting. We don't realize that we don't even like the color on our fucking walls. I mean, there was a couple times where I looked at the walls and thought, why did I choose this color? I mean, I'd had the color on the walls for 15 fucking years. You'd think that I would notice at one point whoa, this is very, very, very caramel. Who chose this? Oh right, that's fucking me. We spend so much time just on autopilot, not being enough in the moment, not spending enough time paying attention to the little things. It's not because we're just living our life and having fun. It's because we are spending so much time in our thoughts, so much time half paying attention to what we're doing, and we don't really notice the things that might matter.
Speaker 1:She went, she got her eyebrows done. She came back out. They were beautiful, they were perfect, they were lovely. Her whole face seemed to change. Sometimes it's just one small shift, one small change. But the first part that we need is the awareness that it needs to be changed. But the first part that we need is the awareness that it needs to be changed. One of the things that I'm so focused on this year. It's shifting everything mindset, energy and action. When you start to take action towards your goal and you step into that commitment piece, it is fucking wild the things that are placed in your path. The things that are placed in your path, like in this past month.
Speaker 1:So much has changed for me just because I've committed to my goals and committed to the process of achieving them. Like shocking the way that things have just popped up in my life to heal, or popped up in my life as opportunities. But it doesn't change if we don't look at it. It doesn't change if we just kind of trudge along and do our makeup in the fucking dark. It doesn't change our lives if we don't open our eyes and sit in true awareness of what we are surrounded by, what we think, what we do, how we act, what we feel, when we can step really into this place of reflection of what am I doing now, what am I thinking now, what am I feeling now and what are the goals that I have for myself and what am I doing?
Speaker 1:Life doesn't change until we decide what goals we want to achieve and then assess ourselves. What am I thinking right now, what I'm feeling right now? What am I acting right now? Am I getting myself closer to my goals or farther away? And what do I need to shift every single day in order to achieve the thing that I want? Are you committed or are you interested? When you're committed, you'll take that look in the mirror, you'll sit in massive awareness and you'll be committed to the joy of the process and you'll keep going.
Speaker 1:The commitment and the journey is the biggest gift of all, but we spend so much fucking time being interested in our goals and then not doing anything to shift, to change them, and not getting the support that we need in order to kind of commit to ourselves.
Speaker 1:It's incredible when we just do that one thing, just sit in awareness, make a few changes or even just one change, commit yourself to one change. Everything can shift if you just take action towards your goals. So I hope you have an amazing day and I hope you find the fuzzy tadpoles in your life. I hope you find the things that you never knew you needed to change, because there is such beauty that comes out of it. It's such a gift. Thank you so much for listening. I hope you've had some laughs, maybe some ideas, and that you've been inspired to take some type of action toward the life you've always dreamed of. If you feel so called, I would love it if you would share with your besties and leave a review down below. I look forward to bringing you along on this journey and I will see you in the next episode.
