#296: Are You Using Your Superpower?
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this Friday Facts episode, I want to talk about our superpowers. You have a superpower, everyone has one or more. It likely comes from something you have lived through, the experiences that have stretched you and challenged you to grow. Your superpowers are what comes easy for you and what you can see in others. The real questions are, “what is your superpower”, and “are you using it?”

Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this Friday Facts episode, I want to talk about authenticity and how it is not just about the person you show to others and sharing that authentic version. It is also about calling yourself out on your own BS and not giving yourself a pass for the actions or behaviours that you know aren't in alignment with who you are and the direction you desire your life to move in.

Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this "Monday mindset'' episode, we are chatting about whether you are standing in your past stories. I have referred to the concept of standing IN vs standing ON our stories. When we are standing in our stories, we are stuck in the past, replaying scenarios that we can no longer control, fix or manage. Here’s a brief explanation of standing in vs standing on your story.

#290: What You Envy in Others
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this Friday Facts episode, I want to talk about envy and what it is telling you. What you envy in others or you are bitter or jealous about is actually something you want and can have in your life. You see in them what is possible for you. So instead of acting with bitterness look at it as a sign or permission for what you can accomplish. Jealousy and envy are extremely low on the vibrational frequency scale and it does nothing but bring your energy down further every single time.

info_outline#279: Why Your Story Matters
In this "Monday mindset'' episode, I am sharing some lessons I have learned over the past few years why our story matters. When we are going through difficult times we tend to retreat from the world and hide. It is our way of avoiding being hurt, judged, criticized or even being seen. Living this way provides no solutions or changes. When we are open to seeing that our stories, experiences and lessons make us who we are and who we are becoming, we can truly find and create freedom in our lives. This is one of my fav quotes, “You’re not a victim for sharing your story. You are a survivor setting the world on fire with your truth. And you never know who needs your light, your warmth and your raging courage.” Alex Elle
In today’s episode we discuss:
1) Our stories all matter because we all matter. Everyone has something to contribute, share and give in this world and our stories create who we are and who we are becoming. They make a massive impact in our lives and the sooner we acknowledge that, the sooner we can be on the path to being “free” from the weight of our stories.
2) Seeing our stories differently requires learning to stand ON your story instead of IN it. The reason why it feels like your story doesn't matter is because you are continuing to live in it. When we are stuck in our story, we are on a repeat cycle of frustration, comparison, resentment, anger and victimhood. No change comes from this cycle.
3) Our stories connect us, remind us that we are human and not alone. We all crave human connections, and we are connected by our stories, our pain and our emotions. Shifting this allows us to give our power back to ourselves and not the story.
4) Is there a purpose or a reason for your story? How is it nudging you to become the person you were meant to become? Finding a purpose in our stories, realizing that it is not all about us anymore can create a massive shift in our healing and our energy.
