Very often, as we raise a family, we end up feeling like we need to compromise on our long-term goals and dreams. We push them back to that elusive “one day.” One day, we’ll change jobs. One day, we’ll travel. One day, we’ll build or buy our dream home. That is what we're going to discuss in today's Stand Out Be You episode.
Today’s podcast guest explains where these “one day” goals can steer you wrong, and how to be a happier family by adapting them to fit your needs! Ashley Logsdon is a family and marriage coach and the founder of Mama Says Namaste. And her passion is helping people shift from a reactionary, chaotic life to a life of intention, taking their mindset from “one day” to “Let’s do it!” Plus, she does it all while traveling the states in an RV with her husband and kids!
On today’s show, you’ll get to hear her insights on how to create a family plan that works for you, plus tips on starting or running your own business while cultivating a happier, healthier family life.
My main focus is on understanding who you are. Because we believe that 85% of the process of finding the work you love, or all of the process of being connected and engaged in your family and your community and your personal life, is really having a good understanding of who you are…The uniqueness in each of us strengthens all of us.
Today, there are one million people, including families and young couples, who roam the United States while living out of their RV. It’s a dream that’s becoming more and more common—and it speaks to the goal of traveling that both Ashley and her husband shared from early on in their relationship.
But it wasn’t until a few years ago that the two of them put a date on their “one day” dream, pulling their family into an RV for a 90-day family road trip trial run. Two years later, after seeing 48 states on the road, it’s clear that the idea was a winner, a beautiful adventure they decided to stick within the long term.
The first steps toward that dream weren’t easy, though! Ashley speaks frankly about the challenges her family faced, as well as the soul-searching they had to do—including creating a family vision! This essential piece of information connects every member of a family to their core values and “one day” goals, helping them understand each other (and themselves!) better, in order to move forward with confidence.
Ashley shares her tips on how to travel the United States with little ones, as well as general lessons for any family reaching for those “one day” goals—so join us to hear it all!
