Welcome to the Mindset Bay podcast.
If you want more confidence and motivation then you're in the
right place every week at your dose of self development advice
and strategies. I'm your host Perry Richardson,
life coach, N OP practitioner, motivational speaker and mental
health advocate. My mission is hope you find more
happiness and take more action in your life.
Now let's begin. Hello, hello, hello babe to the
Mindset Babe podcast. I am so excited for today's
episode because today is a very big day.
We are going to finally announce the third big surprise of the
month for the month of April. I've been calling this The Road
to 300, the Road to 300 podcast episodes, The Road to 300
podcast reviews, and I just want to celebrate.
I want to celebrate myself for showing up.
I want to celebrate you for tuning in to these episodes.
The fact that you are actively searching to change your life to
become a better person, that's amazing.
The very first surprise that I dropped, have you been following
along? If not, what has been happening?
Follow the podcast so you never miss an episode.
But the very first celebration surprise I dropped on the
podcast was I was giving away a $200.00 gift card to Sephora.
Then we had to go a little bit bigger.
The second surprise, my husband decided to sponsor a extra $100.
We're going to give an extra $100 in Amazon gift cards.
We're going to give $425 gift cards because we wanted more
winners in the giveaway to say thank you.
And then the big third surprise will be announced in this
podcast episode. So I'm so excited to finally
record this. Guys.
I have been thinking about this since March, this surprise.
I've been planning and doing all the things behind the scenes.
And today's the day I get to share it with you.
All right, let's get into the episode though.
Let's talk about how to create your dream life while working
full time. And I know this story very, very
well. I have lived this story.
I remember thinking I did everything right.
I got my bachelor's degree, I got the job, I got the career,
and I became the woman everyone said that I should be like
growing up. And for a while it felt good.
I was like, I'm doing this. I got my benefits, my PTO, I'm
working, let's do it. I was really proud of myself.
And maybe like me, you also felt very accomplished, like I'm
doing it, I made it. But somewhere along the way,
that feeling started to fade. And now the time your work day
ends, you're already mentally exhausted, you're physically
drained and emotionally checked out, and you just feel done.
And it's like your job is honestly taking the best parts
of you. It's taking your focus, it's
taking your energy, it's taking your creativity and the time you
get home with whatever energy and scraps that you have
leftover, you try to build your dream life.
And that's hard because I remember like telling myself
like, OK, tonight is the night. Like I really got to work on my
goals. Like I got to do what I said I
was going to do. But the time 6:00 PM hits,
instead of feeling motivated and excited to go after my goals, it
honestly kind of felt like a marathon that I didn't even sign
up for. So then I would just go into
recovery mode. I would have my snacks, I would
pour myself a glass of wine, put on my show on Netflix.
And I would repeat that cycle day after day after day after
day. And I realized because I had the
pattern of like, I would go to work and it would just be so
mentally exhausting, physically draining.
Like I would get home like literally drained and tired and
I would be like, I deserve to rest.
I deserve to eat my snacks. I deserve to have a glass of
wine, I deserve to chill and veg out on the couch and also scroll
on my phone. Like I deserve this.
But then it slowly turned into a pattern.
And then a pattern turns into a habit.
And it wasn't just rest anymore. It was my default.
I wasn't just having a break. It actually turned into like a
lifestyle. Do you feel this way also?
And I think for me, like the hardest part was I knew I was
capable of like so much. And you could see at my job, I
was focused, I was capable of, I was high achieving, I was in it,
I was on it. Like I was on top of it.
But when it came to my actual personal goals, I had nothing
left inside of me to actually go after them.
And it kind of felt like I was like two different people,
honestly. Like I had a version of me where
I was like very powerful and just very productive.
I was like positive. I was productive.
I was keeping promises to myself.
And then the other version of me was exhausted, drained, tired,
wanted to do all of the quote UN quote bad habits that I love to
slip into. And I think that's like the most
frustrating thing. Like the thing that pissed me
off the most was that I knew I could do better and I wasn't
doing better. I honestly wasn't trying.
I was in the D fall of I would go to my 9:00 to 5:00, get home
and have my rest just be this ritual of not working on myself
and then shaming myself for not working on my business, for not
going to the gym, for not cleaning the house.
And I remember having this big moment of being like I would
literally have my dream life if I learned how to manage my time.
Like if I learned how to actually create my life while
having my full time job, I would be on fire.
I would be able to do everything that I wanted to do, which then
would help me eventually like leave my full time job.
So when I have problems, I like to solve them.
If you didn't know, when I have a problem, I'm like, where is
the solution? Like I'm on it.
So in 2023, yes, 2023, I decided to invest in a time management
program. And in this program it taught
you the mindset of time and managing yourself, leading
yourself, directing yourself, doing the things that need to be
done, like kind of parenting yourself.
Also the strategy to get things done quickly.
And I have been using this process now for three years.
And in the past three years I have created a successful
business, a top rated podcast with hundreds of five star
reviews across all platforms. I have gotten engaged, I have
planned a wedding. I got married.
I went on a two week honeymoon. It's so crazy.
Me and my husband, we've been married for a year and we've
already travelled to six countries.
What is happening? What a great first year of
marriage. We have done so many cool things
the first year of marriage. But anywho I built a successful
business, I have a top rated podcast, I found my soul mate
all while working full time. I still have my 9:00 to 5:00
job, I still work my corporate job.
And also I am creating the life of my dreams and I am so excited
to finally share the last big surprise of April.
I am hosting a free live master class about creating your dream
life while working full time. I never do live things.
Like literally the last live class I had was a year ago,
literally in May when I did worthy.
I don't do live things, but I wanted to show up live.
I wanted to be with you. I wanted to teach something that
was so needed because I know that you know that there's more
to life than just going to your corporate job, from just going
to your soul sucking job. And by the end of the shift you
are so exhausted and drained. You can't live your life.
You know there's more to this and I'm so excited to teach you
exactly how I've been doing it. We have the same exact hours, we
have the same exact schedule, and yet I'm so creating
greatness and I want to show you the way.
So I am hosting a free live Master class on Sunday, May 3rd
at 3:00 PM Pacific Standard Time.
And when I was thinking about my corporate girly, I was like,
what would be the best like day and time for you?
And I figured during a weekday night, I don't know, you might
just be too exhausted and checked out after your shift
actually come to learn this information.
So I figured Sunday is literally the perfect reset where you can
show up, get all the wisdom, all the knowledge, really prepare
for your week ahead and learn how to create your dream life
while working full time. So I'm hosting a free master
class Sunday, May 3rd at 3:00 PM Pacific Standard Time.
I am inviting you to this class. I would love to have you in
there. If you're unable to attend live
no worry, still register. You will get the replay.
It will go straight to your inbox.
You can go ahead. You can register for the class
at www.themindsetbabe.com forward slash class.
Again, that's www.themindsetbabe.com/class and
that will be in the description box.
All right, But I do want to talk about the process of how to
create your dream life while working full time while working
a corporate job. I'm going to walk you through my
exact framework. And this is perfect because I
was really thinking like, what do you need to know before you
show up live for the master class?
So I decided let me just share my framework and then we can
just get into the nitty gritty and literally do the framework
on the call together. So how to create your dream life
while working full time? Are you ready for this?
I'm calling it the Create method.
So good. OK, see the very first thing for
create and see clarify your vision.
You have to decide what you're actually building, what you're
actually creating. I want you to think of it like
Agps. You can't get directions if you
don't know your destination. So we need to define your 2026
vision, your actual direction, not just like a vague idea.
We are going to create in the master class your action
statement, a action statement, a statement you're going to take
action on for the rest of the year.
And we're only going to pick one thing.
The power of 1 is so important. You have limited time and
energy. And so with the time and energy
that you have, we're going to put it into one thing.
So we're going to pick one thing.
The power of 1, it's so powerful to focus on one thing.
And also I want to honor your true reality that your time is
limited, that you're actually working full time.
And so the action statement includes one thing and your
limitation. For example, the action
statement is blank while working full time.
For example, create a successful business while working full
time. That is my action statement for
the year. Yours could be create a healthy
sexy body while working full time, or find your soulmate
while working full time, or become a better mom while
working full time. And if you have no idea what to
choose or you're overwhelmed with all the options, don't
worry. I'm actually going to walk you
through a decision making process in the master class.
All right, so R is rewire your mindset.
To be honest. I want you to be ruthless
towards your goals. I want you to take action
quickly. I want you to stop overthinking.
I want you to actually believe in yourself enough that you
actually try and you go for it because most people don't fail
from their capability of actually doing the thing.
They fail because of the hesitation.
They fail because they're not even willing to try.
And so there's really 3 traits that you need to develop to make
sure that you show up even with the limitations of your job.
So these are the three traits that we're going to talk about
in the master class #1 you need determination.
Determination is I'm going to get what I want no matter how
long it takes. I'm going to get what I want no
matter how long it takes. The second trait that you need
is discipline. Discipline is a follow through
even when I don't feel like it. Discipline, I follow through
even when I don't feel like it. And then you need certainty.
I believe it's already working even before I see it.
I believe it's working even before I see it.
And you need these three traits to actually show up to the plan.
I know some of you guys will make the plan and will make the
To Do List and like get like cute stickers and like plan out
your whole week, but you actually got to do the thing.
And so to help you do the thing, you need determination.
You're going to keep going no matter how long it takes
Discipline, even when you don't feel like it, you're in there.
Certainty you believe it's working, even when you don't see
the results quite yet. And inside the master class, I'm
going to help you build these three.
All right. The E in create is engineer your
time. You don't just find time, you
create it. And you're either consuming your
time or you're creating your life with it.
You're either consuming your time with scrolling,
distracting, eating, drinking, whatever it is, or you're
creating creating opportunities, creating experiences, creating
love, creating memories, creating your dream life.
And to be honest, you need both, right?
Like it's not about working, working, working, working,
working, creating, creating, creating, creating, creating.
If that's the case, you'll get burnt out.
And also it's not about like consuming, consuming, consuming,
consuming, consuming. That's also not a great life to
live either. It's about finding the balance
in between the creating and consuming and helping you master
both of them. And that's really what we're
going to talk about in the master class because I see it's
like two sides of the spectrum. Either you guys are working too
hard, overworking, you're burning yourself out, you're not
resting. Anytime you rest, you feel
guilty, or you rest a little little too much.
You're on the couch a little, a little too much.
I'm going to help you blend both sides and how you blend those
both sides is having those 3 traits.
All right, the next letter and create is a we're going to
activate your commitment. Motivation is not a strategy.
It's not, but commitment is. Commitment comes from desire.
It comes from choice. It comes from decision.
Commitment is I want this and I choose this.
And when you're truly committed, you become flexible.
I want you to hear what I'm saying.
When you are committed to the end result, it doesn't matter
the how the plan, it doesn't even matter you're willing to do
10 different plans to get the result because you are committed
to creating your action statement.
I want you to become the person who is flexible, who's
adaptable. When your first plan doesn't
work, it's OK, I'm going to the second plan.
If the second plan catches on fire, it doesn't matter.
I'm going to the third plan. If the third plan, you lost the
plan in a windstorm, it doesn't even matter.
We're going to the 4th plan. Like I want you to be able to be
so committed to building and creating your dream life that it
doesn't matter how you get there as long as you get there.
And so that's something else I'm going to teach in the master
class is really how to activate that commitment.
The next letter and create is T. We're going to take aligned
action because you can't sit on the couch wishing your life
would change. I hate to say it.
Like I really hate to say it. You have to take action.
You do, because action is what creates movement in your life
and movement is what creates change.
You have to take action towards your dream life.
And inside the Master class, I'm going to show you how to take
action in a way that actually fits your life, that fits your
busy schedule, without feeling overwhelming and without it
feeling like it's something else to do.
Like I want you to imagine what it would be like to actually
have fun while taking action towards your dream life.
That's what we're really going to be talking about in this
section. Like you guys know how to take
action. Like you get up and you do the
thing. It's the thoughts of dreading it
of I don't want to do it. I don't feel like it.
It's hard. It's going to take time.
That's what's going to hold you back from actually taking
action. And that's something we discuss
in the master class. All right.
And the very last letter is E you need to execute consistently
because everything changes when you stop starting over.
So many people are like starting and stopping, starting and
stopping. Like what if you never stopped
and you just kept on going? You would probably have your
dream life by now. And so I'm going to hope you
stop stopping. I'm going to help you stop
stopping and really hope you show up consistently in your
life. And so in the master class,
we're going to talk about creating consistent routines and
creating consistent schedules that actually work with your
full time job. Finding a schedule and a routine
in the middle of your shift that actually helps you create energy
because there's something in the middle of your day that sucks
your energy. And I'm going to help you build
it up so you're not drained and exhausted when you are like
driving home. Like you actually have the
energy because we created a routine that you can
consistently do day after day to build your energy up.
So when you get home, you can actually take action on your
action statement. If you come to this master
class, these are the shifts. These are the results that
you're going to get #1 you're going to finally have clarity on
what you're building. This class is meant to remove
any mental chaos and overwhelm. I'm going to help you finally
have one clear focus and that is going to help build so much
peace and momentum in your life. I'm going to help you define
that one action statement. We're going to do it together in
the master class. The 2nd result is you're going
to stop relying on motivation and really start operating from
commitment. Like, imagine how different your
life would be if you didn't care about the how.
Like you knew you were going to get there, you just had to show
up for it. I'm going to help you stop
starting and stopping based off your emotions and help you
become someone who actually follows through no matter what
number 3 is. I'm going to help you gain
control of your time instead of it feeling like time is
controlling you, that you are a victim of your time.
I'm going to help you master your time and really help you
create your time. Again, I saw my full time job
and I'm doing so many things because I create time.
I'm going to show you exactly how I do it.
I am so excited for this master class.
I know what you're going through.
I have the exact schedule as you.
I've created my dream life. I have gone the path and I want
to show you the way. Come join me live on May 3rd at
3:00 PM Pacific Standard Time. If you're unable to attend live,
