Sometimes You Need to Pause Before You Can Move Forward (Day 1 Of The Ultimate Blog Challenge)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nJaYq1xmj8

I can't believe we are in October now! I love this time of year with the colorful leaves and pumpkins everywhere. The fall season in NY State is a magical time, especially in the Hudson Valley where I live.

Today is also day one of The Ultimate Blog Challenge. The last one was in July. I did my best to participate last time, but it was still too much for me to do consistently with everything I was still working though. I am still proud of the times I did show up for the blog challenge in July. You can check out those posts here.

Since July I have been able to do more emotional healing and embrace the new season in my life that has emerged. All of this has inspired me to make some changes in my business, which I share in this video. It is the first time I have posted a video on my YouTube channel since May (not counting some shorts I posted).

In this video I share more about the pause I needed to take from The Confident Vegan and how it has inspired the series I am launching next week called "Aligned Living". "Aligned Living" living is all about the journey of living true to yourself. I will be interviewing other women on this topic, asking them about their journeys of living in alignment. Sometimes living in alignment requires us to make difficult choices. As I mention in this video, ignoring the truth is more painful than telling the truth.

What would you like to explore with me this month?

During the October Ultimate Blog challenge, I will be exploring different aspects of aligned living. Is there something you've been struggling with, questioning, or wanting to feel more aligned with? Maybe it's setting boundaries, trusting yourself, figuring out what you really want, letting go of people-pleasing, taking action, or simply feeling more connected to yourself.

I will also be sharing vegan recipes. Is there a specific recipe you would like me to share? Do you have any questions about veganism? Let me know in the comments.
