Welcome!
Hey there!
I’m Ariel Vaughan, a Certified Life Coach, Podcast Host and Permission Granter.
You’ve been living your life according to everyone else and I’m here to give you permission to choose you.
And you don’t need my permission (or anyone else’s), but until you believe that, I’m here to give it to you.
I’m giving you permission to say no, go after a new goal, and listen to the small voice that says you deserve more.
I’m here to help you drop the shoulds, let go of doubt and embrace who they truly are.
I believe that everything you want in life starts when you become the real you.
And you have my permission to start being YOU!
How did I get here?
I was introduced to personal development when I started my first business as a Mary Kay consultant. I had the opportunity to work with so many beautiful women that had stories of not feeling beautiful, worthy or enough and I also struggled with some of those same thoughts. Knowing I wasn’t alone in my feelings made those feelings a little less painful.
Learning that I had power over my thoughts and that I could experience more out of life really opened my eyes. I wanted everyone to have the opportunity to learn about themselves, grow mentally and realize that they were more than capable of living a life they truly wanted.
I knew that the best way to help people, was to share my journey, to share my insights and create a space to help people feel less alone.
In order to help more women on a deeper level, I let go of my Mary Kay business and became a Certified Life Coach. I wanted to expand my reach and help support women on their journey to become their best selves, I created the It's Time to Be YOU podcast.
What have I learned?
Through being an entrepreneur, I have been on such a journey to discovering who I am, who I want to be and letting go of who I wasn't.
My biggest lesson is that becoming your best self, is an ongoing journey. It's a process of loving yourself as you are, and being aware of how you want to continue to learn, grow and evolve to get to where you want to be.
Along my journey, I realized that the things that were holding me back and keeping me stuck in a state of anxiety were:
People pleasing tendencies
Perfectionism
Fear of judgement
Lack of confidence
Not owning who I truly was
I have realized that everything you want in life starts with YOU!
It starts with what you think about yourself, what you believe about yourself and what actions you take for yourself.
My Mission
My mission is to help women become the best version of themselves so they can live their best lives!
And by best, I mean the favorite version of yourself. The version of yourself that is filled with love, meaning and purpose. The version that has defined success on your terms and not based on external opinions.
I want to help women shed the shoulds, drop the fear, let go out the doubt and embrace who they truly are.
I am so tired of seeing women fall short and hold themselves back because they are stuck in being someone they think they should be.
It's time to be who you are meant to be and live life on your terms.
I have realized that everything you want in life starts with YOU!
It starts with what you think about yourself, what you believe about yourself and what actions you take for yourself.
So, what are your waiting for? It’s Time to Be YOU!
