25.01.2022 Who are you surrounding yourself with? . . . .... . . Take a look around you because you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with! The moment I decided to surround myself more with people who inspired me to become a better version of myself - everything changed!! We are meant to empower each other instead of dragging each other down. And the things is, it’s very draining to be around people that aren’t supportive of you and who don’t see life the way you do. My top tip Limit the time you spend with them and keep your circle positive. And then.... Strive to be the one that empowers others to be their best. Strive to be the energy you want to attract. If there’s someone supporting you... then take the initiative and support them too! Tag someone below that always has your back!
23.01.2022 It was the moment that I realised that we really can have it all that everything changed! When I started my journey of intentional living I knew that in order to truly create the life, income, freedom and family time that I was looking to create for my family, that I had to surround myself with successful people who had already created the life that I was looking to create. Online Business is just 1 of my ways that I live more intentionally these days, and meeting Karina Jol...ly, 7 Figure Online Businesswomen and Incredibly Present Mumma, Wife, Leader and Friend had me realise that we really can have it all. And just in case you missed it Karina and I went LIVE today on Facebook chatting all things online business, intentional parenting and how we really can have it all!! If you missed it, you can catch the replay on my personal Facebook page - search Lauren Mlikota and you’ll find me!!
22.01.2022 33 + 2 kids . It’s all about LIQUID COLLAGEN Baby . .... . . . If I'm going to use a product it needs to be REAL quality that helps not just 1 or 2 things but helps this Mumma with everything . SKIN - Glow & Anti-Ageing Nourishes & Re-Vitalises Supports FULL BODY & Skin Health Transforms the way we feel about AGEING Enhances WELL BEING Supports JOINTS to feel stronger for longer . WHY IS the LIQUID COLLAGEN MATRIX I use SO SPECIAL? . Well because it's WAY more than just collagen, its a full matrix .......that's patented 7 times. . What is a matrix & why is it so important for my health, skin anti ageing etc? . In areas of the HUMAN body where collagen is found THREE things are generally present : . 1) Collagen itself of course 2) HA (Hyaluronic Acid) 3) Chondroitin sulphate in joints etc . So the matrix I use has of ALL three substances & our bodies absorb 90% of liquid compared to just 30% powder. . It is NOT just a beauty liquid, it’s for full body and skin health! It has 7 patents & full peer reviewed clinical studies and research. . Made in the USA, distributed to you from South Australia. . Want a discount link? . Comment below & I will DM you info. .

22.01.2022 I can’t really call it a little side hustle anymore. . . . .... . . Yesterday, I welcomed my newest team member into my team, all the way from New York City!! . How cool is that!!! . . Online is where it is at. . I almost didn’t start this side hustle because I didn’t think I had the time or the experience. . . And I started my business with literally only 15 minutes per day back in March, while working full time in HR, being a mum to 2 kids under 2, and running an online coaching business with my hubby. Spare time was not in my favour. . But despite my lack of available spare time, I had a deep desire to create something truly magical for my family, to create a life and business that allowed me to be a MUM and successful CAREER WOMEN. . Fast forward 6 months and because I took a chance, (despite not having all the answers), I now have an amazing GLOBAL team... . Pinch me now. . And the best part about my team, business and customers.... they know I support them AROUND being a Mumma!! . When you combine incredible in demand products, a beautiful team and an amazing business model, with a very smart client reward system it all just works. . I have a spot for you. shoot me a pm, if you are looking for a fun and rewarding side hustle. See more

17.01.2022 I don't know about you, but Monday was a tough 24 hours for me. The thing about stress is that it can sneak up on us in even some of the most beautiful moments.... You see Sunday night I got a message to say that the kitten we were getting the girls for Christmas had fallen ill, so Sunday night I spent trying to find a new kitty, Monday morning I got notification that one was ready and available for pick up that day, completely unorganised for a kitten to enter our house... I said yes, because I do believe everything is figure-out-able... and of course it was, we got everything we needed for a kitten and picked it up Monday afternoon. From the outside looking in, it’s a pretty normal experience right, but the 3 days prior to that had been really full and I’d pushed my normal boundaries out a little, was multitasking more than usual, sleep was definitely lacking and the normal every day stress inside my body was brewing and I could feel it... Luckily I know my triggers and I know how I respond when my stress is brewing... and I knew I needed a self-managed intervention! In short.... kitty arriving, it was a really beautiful but also a stressful experience that tipped my stress levels over this week... So I thought it was a good time to dig back into the wellness and stress prevention strategies I implemented over 4 years ago now, to go back to very basics use it to reset and regroup and give back by writing a course about it. So keep a look out for my new course launching early Jan... sharing with you everything I know, implement, sometimes fall short on, but always bounce back from... My Wellness Secrets!!
17.01.2022 Morning GOOP!! Check out my stories for what’s in it!! And gimme a cheeky GOOP below if you want to join me in going all GOOPY and healthy!
17.01.2022 Appreciate the everyday moments that actually matter! The moments of fun The moments of affection The moments of laughter ... The moments of joy The moments of love The moments of courage Because it’s the everyday moments that we will look back on when we’re older, wiser and a yep... even a little greyer. Here’s the thing... There’s always going to be some sort of stress to sidetrack us... to keep us busy. But let me ask you this... Lean in because it’s a biggie.... When you get to the end of your life, do you think that you’re going to be worrying about the stressful day you’ve had today? For the very minority, you might. But for the masses, high chances are that you’re not! But if you’re feeling the stress right now, I get it and I see you because I know exactly what stress can do to the mind and body. I learnt about stress the very hard way and I don’t want that for you. So trust me when I say, step back, breath and appreciate the everyday moments. They matter You matter
17.01.2022 How serious were you about supporting that friend or family member even after R U OK day is done and dusted? . . . .... . Here’s the thing.... Empathy has no script. There is no right way or wrong way to do it. It’s simply listening, holding space, withholding judgment, emotionally connecting, and communicating that incredibly healing message of ‘You’re not alone.’ - Brene Brown Here’s 5 ways that you can try.... That friend/ family member who isn’t drinking at the next social event - maybe they’re not ok, and maybe giving up alcohol is a part of their recovery process. Resist the urge to give them a drink. Resist the urge to tell them they’ve changed. Instead... Offer them a non alcoholic drink. Heck... sit and a water with them. Support them!! That friend/ family member who has chosen to eat healthier this month - maybe they’ve been diagnosed with a health condition. Maybe they’re not ok. Maybe they will be, because they are making new and healthier choices now. Resist the urge to ask what’s this all about. Instead... Support them!! That friend/ family member who isn’t returning your calls - Maybe their being lazy. But maybe they’re not ok. Reach out. Ask, are you ok? If they are ok and just not returning your calls, set boundaries. Reassess the friendship. But if they aren’t ok. Be patient with them. Let them know you love them, and let them know you will be there for them when they are ready. That friend/ family member who started a side hustle - Maybe they are in financial hardship. Maybe they are not ok. Support them. You don’t have to buy from them. But support them. Champion them. Encourage them. Think about 1 person you could refer to them. That friend/ family member who is running on automatic and it feels like they have no time for you. Love them anyway. Maybe they’re ok and you’ve just outgrown each other. Maybe they’re not ok and if they’re not, your love it will help them. When they’re ready for it. Here’s the thing. I’m not going to bullshit you.... Vulnerability is hard. And it’s scary, and it feels dangerous. But it’s not as hard, scary, or dangerous as getting to the end of our lives and having to ask ourselv
16.01.2022 Surround yourself with the people who bring out the very best in you!! Making memories and experiencing life with these 3 humans amazing brings me so much joy and gratitude!!
14.01.2022 ? Let me share with you why Because it's WORKING. ... We live in an E-commerce society. Think about this... Uber, the largest transportation provider doesn't own a single car. AirBnB, the largest hotel company in the world doesn't own a single hotel. Amazon, the biggest retailer and they don't own a single store. There’s a trend here people.... 2021 is coming and if you’ve been thinking about creating something new, now is the time. Just think #socialretail I’m here for you!
12.01.2022 remember the feeling like it was yesterday... . . . .... . . That feeling of ‘I don't have time.' That holy f**k moment of where am I going to find the time to actually create this amazing life that I had just created on my Vision Board! A life that I knew my family and I absolutely deserved. A life in QLD, filled with experiences with my family, a career that I could fall back in love with, dates with my husband, beach fun with my family, fine dining with girlfriends...in a body that I would feel energised in again, every-single-day... You see 12 months ago when I updated my vision board, I was a sleep deprived Mumma, I have always loved having a career and my hubby is an amazing dad, so we had swapped the traditional parenting roles. I returned to work and he stayed home with our girls, (my guilt on that decision was through the roof - but let’s save that one for another day...). I was still carrying most of my baby weight, and while I was SO full of love for my family, I missed loving my career and my body, ooo it felt SO tired..... But it was in that moment of wonder that I reminded myself that I don’t have time and my busyness was not going to get in the way of me creating the beautiful life I had created pictures of on my vision board’. Here’s what I reflected on in that moment.... I knew that successful people shared some common traits around their relationship with time. 1. They make time for what matters, not for what fills their day. 2. They put effort into their dreams, not just into 'busyness'. 3. They realise they don't have to be perfect, but they do have to start... So in that moment, I left my potential excuses at the door, and I got into action to creating the next chapter of my families life! I didn’t wait for perfection in order to start. I simply just started saying YES to the things that would lead me closer to my dreams and NO to the things that wouldn’t. And here’s the thing I know... Sometimes, the time for THINKING about our dreams must get replaced with DOING something about it... And sometimes, making the time for what matters is all it takes to make your dreams your reality
12.01.2022 This being a Mum thing.... is the greatest gift I could ever ask for
10.01.2022 Sometimes all you need is that ONE person who believes in you... . . . .... . These selfies are from 2015, when my now husband Michael and I were first dating... he lived in Brissy and I lived in Sydney... I remember he would send me fun little selfies of himself, doing his thing throughout the day... And I remember feeling SO awkward sending selfies back... After 12 months of sending selfies, I got more and more confident with them but it really wasn’t easy for me... I look back now, 5 years on, with a heck of a lot more self awareness... and I know that it was never about the selfies, I just didn’t feel comfortable in my own skin, and to be really raw, I really didn’t feel worthy enough to take a photo of myself and to send it on... The thing is, every time I sent Michael a selfie, he always had something so positive to say! So it got me thinking.... How was it that he could see such beauty, and yet I really struggled to see it within myself...?? Sometimes all we need is someone to believe in us, to believe in us, until we’re ready to believe in ourselves... To love us, to really love us, unconditionally, until we’re ready to love ourselves... Sometimes all it takes is to be seen, to feel seen, to feel heard and to feel loved.... And sometimes it can’t be up to others... Sometimes it’s up to us... Up to us to slow down and to see someone, to love someone, to listen to someone, and to believe in them... To believe in them until they’re ready to do it for themselves... Michael, you taught me how to take a selfie babe, but more than that, you taught me how to love being me, and even more than that, you taught me how to have FUN being me! So much gratitude... So much gratitude for our journey called Life
10.01.2022 Mummy, what if I fall? Oh, my darlings.... what if you fly
10.01.2022 What makes a good parent? . . . .... . I remember googling this when I was first pregnant with our first daughter Lily, and holy f**k I was overwhelmed with the opinions. So I quickly closed down Google and instead leaned over to my husband and asked "what's going to be important to you when it comes to how we parent?... We chatted for hours, and we both shared what was going to be important, what was going to be ok, and also not ok, and we gave each other the space to talk and share. And it was that moment that I realised that for us, and our new parenting GIG... it wasn't going to be about "getting it right" or "perfecting it" but it was a chance for us create something really special - together and for our family - to live, to love, to feel, and to embrace our new world of parenthood - together". So where do I get my parenting advice from? I get it from people who have the same beliefs and values as me and my husband, and so thought I'd share today my favourite 5 books that have helped me BE the parent that I love being and continue to grow into each day. You know my style, it's real, it's raw, it's messy, but I think it's pretty beautiful. So if you love real, raw and messy you'll love these books too! 1. The Gifts of Imperfect Parenting - Brene Brown. 2. The Conscious Parent - Shefali Tsabary. 3. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Families - Stephen R Covey. 4. The 5 Love Languages of Children - Gary Chapman 5. Buddihsm for Mothers - Sarah Napthali Let me know in the comments below your fav parenting book
09.01.2022 COLLAGEN - Is it worth the investment? I’ve been using LIQUID Collagen for 6 months and I’m SO GRATEFUL for what it has done for my skin, body, energy and confidence!! Here’s my journey so far, and my results are in these photos ... no filter no makeup, natural face, I do have the collagen moisture lip complex on my lips As many of you know, I am a Mumma to 2 beautiful girls under 3, and so for the last 4 years my body has done an incredible job to grow, birth and nurture 2 little humans... and while that has been an amazing journey, there has also been a real impact on my sleep, body, skin and energy! My investment in liquid collagen has been about ME naturally looking after me, my skin and my body because I was seeking a natural solution to get my my vibrancy and body back!! And I can say that hands down it’s been one of the BEST self care regimes I have ever invested in!! After the age of 30 our bodies stop naturally producing collagen and so when I made the commitment to start using the Liquid collagen, it was never about just having 1 months worth because it can take up to 90 days for collagen to build up in our system. But the amazing thing about the Liquid Collagen I use and recommend is that it actually encourages our bodies to start producing collagen on its own again...!! I use collagen every day, I started on 15ml morning and 15ml night, and recently have reduced my intake now to only 15ml in the morning. My skin is glowing, my sleep deprived lines under my eyes are so much better, my hair is thicker, and I feel so much more energy and vibrancy in my body!! There’s a reason why the collagen/HA matrix I use holds 7 international patents! It's as simple as a in the morning and a at night. Who wants to try this with me? Give me some for my $10 off coupon!
09.01.2022 Stop using the word BUSY and watch your life completely transform. . . . .... . Hear me out. It takes courage to say yes to rest and play in a culture where exhaustion is seen as a status symbol - Brene Brown Earlier this year, I read those words by Brene Brown and I felt it right to my core. It was kinda like one of those moments where your best friend gives you real honest love, and you know they are right but you’re just not sure what to do with it (yet). You see, at that time, I knew I really wanted more rest and play in my life. But on a deep subconscious level exhaustion and keeping busy was kinda how I proved my worth to the world, so how the heck was I going to do this whole rest and play thing... Well.... I set myself a little challenge (ok it turned out to be a rather big challenge ), but the challenge I set myself was to stop using the word busy, to stop talking about being busy, and to instead start using that time to rest and play more! And here’s 3 of my daily techniques that I’ve implemented to delete the word busy from my life.... 1. When people ask me how I am going, or how I have been, I answer their questions without saying busy. 2. In all of those moments where I used to think about how busy I was (and trust me there were a lot of them), I now instead look for and think about how much I have to be grateful for. 3. I started saying yes to the things I wanted to be busy doing, and no to the things I didn’t. Because here’s the thing.... What we know matters, what we do matters, but who we ARE and how much we live, and love, and rest and play, it matters SO much more

01.01.2022 Stop trying to explain yourself. It’s okay to want more in life! Wanting more for my myself and for family has given me the opportunity to live my life on my own terms. It has allowed me to widely share my message to those who want to go after creating life on their own terms. ... And, most importantly, it has given me the freedom to spend time with the people I love the most; my family. That’s how I truly measure my families success. Not with the superficial stuff. Focus on making an impact, no matter how big or small. When you focus on making the world a better place, choice and success become the byproduct. What does living life on your terms mean to you? Let me know below!
