I’ve been quiet on here for over a week. Things have been...all over the place...for a while.⁣
⁣
The past month traveling in our van was good. Really good. We rode epic trails and paddled over half a dozen different lakes and rivers. We drank coffee/tea on the beach. We swam in cool alpine lakes. And my IG has looked like an REI ad to prove it 😂⁣
⁣
But I admittedly have not felt in alignment as much as I’ve wanted. My family’s been struggling. Turns out dealing w/ cancer + Covid at the same time effing sucks.⁣
⁣
Like just about every other human being on the planet right now, 2020 has brought up some weird stuff for me. Stuff I never would’ve anticipated, and that’s not even speaking about the pandemic. And it hasn’t been easy.⁣
⁣
So I finally decided to reach out for some help. ⁣
⁣
I was hesitant at first. I mean, now that I’m a coach, I should be able to coach myself, right?⁣
⁣
But when I thought about it I realized, even the greatest leaders get coached. Even the strongest struggle some days. Big names like Brooke Castillo and amyporterfield have coaches. Even the lead instructor from my coach training program, transformcoachingacademy (who has been coaching for 20 years!) has a coach!⁣
⁣
I deserve help. I deserve to feel good. I deserve to be supported so I can show up as a light for the world.⁣
⁣
I’m here to tell you that YOU DESERVE THE SAME.⁣
⁣
2020 has sucked for a lot of us, but you don’t have to suffer. Reach out. Talk to a friend. Find a coach. Go to a therapist. Get whatever help you need (and deserve) to THRIVE.⁣
⁣
💫 It’s ok to not be ok. 💫⁣
⁣
And it’s also ok to ask for help. The world needs you. You woke up this morning because you still have a purpose on this planet. You have gifts you were meant to share.⁣
⁣
You deserve to thrive, my friend ❤️⁣
⁣
And if you wanna chat, please DM me; I’m here. If you’re stuck or not sure where or how to get help, hit me up. I promise you, there are always ways to make life better - even in these weird times.⁣
⁣
Thanks so much to my sweet friend mjhanley1 for asking me to join the challenge of #womenempoweringwomen 😍🤗⁣

How do you make space for inspiration?

For me, the most powerful way to get inspired in my biz is to completely unplug in nature - preferably off the grid (out of cell range!) if possible. And no music, no podcasts, no distractions of any kind.

I’ve learned that taking this time for ME is so much more effective than anything I can do in my office to pump up the inspiration. And I come back bursting with ideas and ready to rock! I’m SO much more productive, too.

It sounds so simple, but this might be best business hack you’ve never heard any of the gurus talk about. Trust me, it works!!

And if you’re needing some inspiration to get outside yourself, make sure you catch my most recent IGTV!

Sometimes it can be easy to get sucked into thinking about what you don’t have, and forget how good you really have it.

Last night, Brian started swooning over a campervan parked near us that had a slide-out compartment and an a/c unit on top. Petty soon he’d spent 2 hours on YouTube dreaming of all the snazzy features you can get in a van - an indoor shower, a bed that raises and lowers electronically, a freezer, all the bells and whistles. And I was into it too... imagine road tripping to humid South and sleeping in the cool air conditioning... with ice cream on board!

But this morning we woke up to a bluebird sky, with this gorgeous view. We sat with our tea and coffee, soaking up the sun in our camp chairs, listening to the birds sing around us. And we remembered just how good we already have it. Being able to live out of our van for a month with no agenda or schedule feels like the ultimate luxury. It doesn’t matter how fancy our rig is, this freedom is 100% priceless.

I’m not saying it’s wrong to want more or dream bigger. But sometimes when we do this, we forget how good we’ve already got it.

So wherever you are, whatever your dream - take time to just be grateful for how far you’ve already come, what you’ve already achieved, and all the goodness you’ve already attained.

I believe that tuning into this gratitude brings more great things into our lives. But if nothing else, giving thanks for what you already have just makes life that much sweeter.

What are you grateful for today?

There are a bunch of new faces around here, so I thought I’d introduce myself for those of you who are new!⁣

I’m Julia Taylor, creator of Aligned Adventure. I’m a wanderlusting, adventure-chasing mountain girl from Colorado. I’m in love with entrepreneurship, passionate about personal growth and spirituality, and just a *little* obsessed with the power of our minds, emotions, and energy.⁣
⁣
In 2014 I started my entrepreneurial journey after becoming miserable in my 9-5. I tried a TON of different things to make it work, but I was often clocking 12-hour days or doing things that drained my energy.⁣
⁣
Then In 2017, life threw me a big fat curveball when my mom and I were BOTH diagnosed with cancer the same month. Crazy right??⁣
⁣
It was a huge wake-up call and I resolved to stop living my life for other people and start doing ONLY the things that lit me the eff up. 🔥 I wanted to make my time on this planet count, and no matter if I had 5 years left or 50, I wanted to feel wildly fulfilled and happy at the end.⁣
⁣
Since then my #1 WHY in everything I do has been about FREEDOM. Thanks to my ever-evolving and growing business, but more importantly to my major mindset shifts, I’ve 100% achieved that freedom - even right now in the middle of these strange and unpredictable times.⁣
⁣
Although we probably won’t be able to paddle Lake Louise this summer, my hubby and I still get to explore and adventure with total freedom of time and location (well almost! 😂). Today we packed up our camper van and hit the road. We’re not sure all the places we’re going or exactly how long we’ll be gone, and that feels amazing!⁣
⁣
I’m so thankful to be able to do this. I don’t share all this to brag, but rather to tell you - if this is possible for me, it’s possible for you! You have the power inside of you to create everything that YOU want, and do the things that LIGHT YOU UP.⁣
⁣
So follow along here for more inspiration, check out my stories for real-time adventure, chronicles, and DM me if you ever want to chat about how you can uplevel YOUR life!⁣

In case you missed my announcement Monday, I wante

My version of the perfect work-life balance: hangi

My version of the perfect work-life balance: hanging out in a hammock, getting creative on the laptop, 20 yards away from my main adventure partner and our sweet camper van in the desert. 🌵 ⁠
⁠
What's your version?⁠

I'm counting down the days till we leave for a roa

I'm counting down the days till we leave for a road trip into quieter, wilder places. ⛰⁠
⁠
Until about 10 days ago, we'd planned to take 2 weeks to travel in our van this summer, which was a big change from the original 2.5 month international trip we'd dreamed of pre-covid. ⁠
⁠
I'm not sure why I had 2 weeks stuck in my head, but I was telling myself that's all we were allowed to do. That that was the max safe, responsible time frame we could travel.⁠
⁠
But wait a second...⁠
⁠
Didn't I deliberately create my business the way I did so I could have this location independence, this freedom, this work/adventure balance? And didn't I rebrand as Aligned Adventure to show the world what's possible?⁠
⁠
So maybe we're not heading to any exotic places like Iceland this year. But we're now taking almost a month away to disconnect from the busy, and reconnect with ourselves and each other.⁠
⁠
There's a lot to get done before we leave (earlier than we'd planned!) but I know I'm going to come back refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to pound the pavement with creative energy in my biz.✨⁠
⁠
This feels like living. This feels like alignment. Sometimes it takes a mindset shift like this one to get there. But it is SO worth it. ⁠
