Ep #9: Discovering Your Mission and Passion

We all need to feel like we have a purpose, a special mission. One of our basic human needs is growth and contribution. When we go about our lives without any real purpose, we feel unfulfilled, bored, and can even become depressed.

In this episode I walk you through my path in finding meaning and purpose for my life. I share the confusion I felt and how I made little discoveries that led me to where I am now. Podcasting, blogging, creating YouTube videos, and hosting yearly events for women.

What started as an online journal has evolved into something bigger. I’ve become extremely passionate about helping other moms find balance and purpose in motherhood and business.

Wannabe Balanced | Women Empowerment Event 2018

I’m so excited to announce the details for our 3rd annual Wannabe Balanced Event. This year the event will be held Saturday June 23rd in Sandy Utah, 3:00pm to 9:00pm at the beautiful Cottage Charm Event Venue (9318 S. 700 E. Sandy Utah).

The Wannabe Balanced event was created to uplift and inspire women to become the best version of themselves and connect with their unique purpose and mission in life. It will be a day of empowerment, delicious food and amazing speakers Jody Moore with Better Than Happy Podcast and my husband Sean Escobar, Millionaire Entreprenuer!!!

<<<PURCHASE TICKETS HERE>>>

When I first became a mom I had a hard time figuring out a good balance between being there for my kids and being there for myself. I felt a lot of chaos, overwhelm, boredom, and even loneliness at times.

I starting blogging about my quest for balance in 2010 and now it has evolved into more than just a public journal. It has become my mission to create a community of other #WannabeBalanced Moms who have the desire to become a better version of themselves in motherhood and business.

Often times we lose confidence or enthusiasm when trying to pursue different endeavors. We get discouraged by over saturated markets and our underdeveloped skills. It’s rare that we hear of something completely new and innovative. But that doesn’t mean we can’t find a unique way of doing whats already been done. I believe we are all bloggers in a way. Social media is something almost EVERYONE uses. We use it to teach, share, inspire, and support. Even though the message is usually something we’ve most likely heard before. The difference is it’s never been said shared by YOU. Combined with your personality, experience and background. There are a million different ways to say the same thing, what makes it unique is YOU! Different messages resonate with different audiences in different ways.

The Wannabe Balanced Event is about discovering your unique gifts and life mission. Then having the courage and clarity to play it out. As most of us are moms, the trick is finding a healthy balance between pursuing your dreams and being the kind of mother you want to be. Becoming a better you and setting an example for your children to dream big and work hard.

Wannabe Balanced 2017 Event Recap

Wanna be notified of upcoming events? Click HERE!

Putting on this event has been one of the most amazing and most challenging endeavors I’ve pursued. It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions but in the end it turned out even better than I had imagined it would.

I remember a few months before putting on this event I was so discouraged because I still had not found a venue. I was explaining to Sean how I was feeling and he said, “Crystal, you don’t HAVE to do this”. Although he was trying to lighten my load and be supportive, this was NOT what I wanted to hear. I felt very strongly about my purpose for doing this and I did not want to quit. Within minutes of that conversation with Sean, I received a phone call from my neighbor Michelle (owner of Movara). She wanted to talk about collaborating. I told her about my idea for an event, met up with her an hour later to take a tour of the place and we pretty much decided it would be the perfect fit.

I was overwhelmed with gratitude because of the confirmation this gave me that God was on my side. I felt as though God was saying, “Yes! You can do this Crystal, and it’s going to bless the lives of many women, don’t give up, you got this, and I got you.”

My vision was for this night to be filled with uplifting messages, lots of laughs, good food, good company, and a chance to bring our online connections to real life. It was exactly that and more and I cannot wait for the next one.

I had the cutest and extremely talented girls to capture this night for us. Amber Green who specializes in videography and Paige Hurst who is an amazing photographer.

Wight Gold Boutique was so sweet and donated a pair of cute gold bar earrings for every one of the girls. Also, the outfit I’m wearing is from Wight Gold.

We had the most wonderful sponsors! Tori from Hello Happy House made us the cutest wooden hashtag signs for our pictures and Kristen from Swoon Vintage Rental Co. created an amazing photo booth for us to take advantage of.

Little Poppy Co. gave everyone their April subscription bows.

Kortni Jean provided some cute swim suits for the giveaway contests.

Freshly Picked provided a bunch of gift cards to giveaway.

Valley Gal Designs provided everyone a cute bow from her shop.

I also received 15 of these beautifully organized day planners from In The Leafy Treetops for the giveaways. These planners are perfect for moms, you have to check out all the cool things they have inside these planners. Se well thought out.

Becky and Erin from BEcoming Threads were so generous and sent everyone home with one of their tshirts with different inspirational messages on them.

The Story Behind Our Threads…
“We are two moms ‘B’ecky and ‘E’rin the BE behind BEcoming Threads. Everyone has a story and a path they are following. We were both asking questions about who we wanted to be and wondering if we were living our story to its full potential. When we realized we were both looking for the same things, we chose to bring our talents and energy together to create BEcoming Threads. Words have power and create emotion, so why not put hopeful and uplifting messages on fashionable apparel? Why not share our story with others? BEcoming threads has become a way for us to purposefully and joyfully fill the gaps between who we are today and who we want to BEcome.
BEcoming Threads offers simply stated apparel with high quality printing and soft and wearable fabrics. You will always feel confident and comfortable as you share your story and wear BEcoming Threads. This is our Story…”Let What You Wear Tell Your Story”

And a huge THANK YOU to my friend Lynne from The Rusty Locket for providing everyone a crystal necklace to take home. Each one a different color to represent our individual uniqueness and to wear as a reminder to be CRYSTAL clear on your mission and purpose in life.

The food provided by Movara‘s in house chef Sam was absolutely devine.

Everyone who attended received a Jujube bag full of goodies from the different sponsors as well as these cute magnet board signs from Petal Lane Home.

See more about the other sponsors on my last post.

Meals by Kathryn, Sweet Leaf, Cariloha, Rad Swim, Real Shades, Kenra, Ella & Anne, Dainty Jewells, Modern Vintage Boutique, Form Spa, and Sticker App.

I have so much more I want to tell you with this event recap as far as the messages that were shared from each of the speakers, but I’m going to save that for next week’s post when I share the video that should be ready soon.

Here are just a few testimonials from some of the ladies who attended.

“‘Love where you are.’ I wrote this down from a speech given by Crystal Escobar at the Wannabe Balanced Event. It hit me hard because I have found myself in this race against time. Trying to move faster than time is impossible folks! So here’s to slowing down and enjoying where we are RIGHT NOW and living in the now.”

~Elise Elizabeth

“I got to spend my Saturday night with some seriously inspirational women at the Wannabe Balanced Event hosted by Crystal Escobar. It is so empowering to be in a room full of 100 other talented ladies that are SO supportive, complimentary, and beautiful inside and out. I’m grateful for the amazing friendships I have made, and I will definitley be going to this event next year (so should you)! Special thanks to all the sponsors and of course Movara for providing the beautiful venue.”

~Jesica Orvin

“This weekend I was uplifted in every possible way at the Wannabe Balanced Event put on by Crystal Escobar at the incredible Movara Fitness Resort. I got to spend all night listening to beautiful messages from amazing women. This conference is for EVERY women. I think that was my favorite part, there were women of all ages and backgrounds. I got to meet many new friends. I feel so motivated, inspired and ready to kick butt in my life.”

~Ali Lewis

“Crystal Escobar put together the Wannabe Balanced Event to inspire and uplift women and it was amazing! I got to meet the ladies that started BEcoming Threads and hear their story behind their “positively” fabulous tees. Thanks for the cute tee gals.”

~Alicia Richins

“After the Wannabe Balanced Event I’ve been trying to implement what I learned there into my everyday. Things like ‘push to be marvelous’ from Kirsten Tyrell and ‘choose to be proud for others instead of jealous’ from Jocelyn Walker. The magnet board I got from Petal Lane Home found a new home by my bedside to remind me everyday that I’M the one who can decide to make today amazing or not so amazing.”

~Allie Kowallis

“I was honored to speak at the Wannabe Balanced Event at Movara in St. George. It was such an inspiring conference, put on by the amazing Crystal Escobar. I spoke on a topic near and dear to my heart “Embracing Your Value, and Letting Your Light Shine Through”…and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.” ~Marianne Williamson. Dr. Suess said it right, ‘Today you are you! That is truer than true. There is no one alinve that is you-er than you!'”

Wannabe Balanced Event

Reserve your ticket to the next Wannabe Balanced Event!!!

Last week I put on my very first Wannabe Balanced event. I’ve been wanting to do something like this for years and so glad I finally got up the nerve to make it happen. I worried so much about my ability to throw an event and I realized that I just had to go for it, because “Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.”

About 7 years ago I was inspired to begin blogging. I thought of it as a way to record and share publicly the experiences and life lessons I was learning. I started out with so much excitement and direction. I felt like I was fulfilling a special mission and it gave me purpose. Over time I lost sight of my purpose and it became a competition. I suddenly found myself feeling inferior to all these other amazing bloggers. I compared myself so much to their beautiful pictures and perfectly written blog posts that I felt I didn’t measure up. I went through major self doubt and lacked the confidence I had when I first started. I began telling myself it was just a waste of time because I didn’t have anything different or unique to offer. Everything has already been said or done before. So I gave up. I quit blogging for a few years.

I’ve found that many of us can relate to this feeling when trying to pursue different endeavors. We get discouraged by over saturated markets. It’s not often that we hear of something completely new and innovative. But that doesn’t mean we can’t find a unique way of doing whats already been done. I believe we are all bloggers in a way. Social media is something almost EVERYONE uses. We use it to teach, share, inspire, and support. Even though often times the message is something we’ve most likely heard before. The difference is it’s never been said by YOU. Combined with your personality, experience and background. There are a million different ways to say the same thing, what makes it unique is YOU! Different messages resonate with different audiences in different ways.

Over time I have learned to be inspired by the success of other women. My purpose and mission has become something bigger than myself and my own messages. It’s evolved into women empowerment. I want to help women overcome the feelings we sometimes get when we look at each other. What if she’s prettier than me, what if she’s a better mother than me? More successful, more patient, more kind, more fun… Often times we feel these feelings without realizing it. None of us want to admit we are jealous of each other or feel resentment. We need to learn to let go of these comparisons and know that there is more than enough to go around. We all have our own special gifts and we can become something even more amazing by utilizing each others gifts and lifting one another. Genuinely loving and supporting one another will only propel us to greater heights. If we withhold our gifts and support, we are depriving those who may need us the most.

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open.” ~Martha Graham

Keep spreading your message and sharing your gifts in YOUR way, because there is nobody youer than YOU!

When planning this event I reached out to all my favorite brands to see if they wanted to be a part of it. Everything turned out even better than I expected. Our yummy dinner was provided by Cafe Zupas and it was absolutely amazing. My favorite is the Chicken Enchilada soup and the Nuts About Berries salad.

Lindsey Hurst Films created a beautiful video of the night and she captured it so perfectly. She really has such a talent for making videos. Find her on Instagram HERE.

Each one of the ladies who came went home with a load of swag from:

Kenra Proffessional

Kenra Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner Set, 33.8-Ounce

One of my favorite hair care products.

Anjou

Anjou Naturals on Amazon has some pretty awesome all natural products. A few of my favorites are the Essential Oils starter kit and diffuser.
