Own Your Choices Own Your Life

In this episode, I am sharing the early part of my journey that started with dealing with teen substance abuse, and trying to find the counselling and support that led me to group programs, counsellors, psychologists, and programs, turning over rocks to try to find solutions. In the process, I found the difference between traditional psychology and NLP, recognizing that I am not diagnosing or treating anything. I am sharing my experience.  I eventually discovered a crisis counsellor program that offered me practical guidance during moments of crisis, which was a game-changer for me. This...

Own Your Choices Own Your Life

In this episode, I discuss the visceral feeling of contraction that often arises when we face overwhelming challenges or opportunities or when a limiting belief is rising to the surface that is ready to be released. This physical response is our subconscious mind's signal to pay attention. Instead of interpreting this discomfort as a sign of inadequacy or fear, this is an invitation to see this contraction as a positive sign to release a limiting belief that no longer serves you.  HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to Contraction as a Gift 00:01:00 - Understanding the Subconscious Mind...

874 | The Day I Stopped Chasing and Started Leading show art 874 | The Day I Stopped Chasing and Started Leading

Own Your Choices Own Your Life

In this episode, I share my thoughts on the common tendency to chase after goals—reaching a new income level, achieving a sold-out offer, or becoming the version of ourselves we aspire to be. I emphasize that instead of chasing these external validations, we should focus on becoming the person who embodies those goals. Chasing often stems from a place of lack, where we seek external validation to feel worthy. I share stories of individuals who achieved their goals only to find that they still felt unfulfilled, highlighting the importance of internal validation. Throughout the episode, I...

Own Your Choices Own Your Life

In this episode, I discuss the internal conflict many of us experience, which I metaphorically call a "war" within ourselves. This internal struggle often arises when two parts of us desire different outcomes, leading to feelings of doubt, fear, and uncertainty. I explore how resisting these conflicting parts can perpetuate a cycle of self-sabotage and emotional turmoil. Drawing from a recent in-person Outspoken Intensive, I introduce the powerful tool of Parts Integration, a technique rooted in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). This method allows individuals to recognize and reconcile their...

Own Your Choices Own Your Life

In this episode, I am talking about how sharing our stories can lead to deep healing. I reflect on my own journey of speaking out about my experiences, particularly around the challenges of dealing with teen substance abuse and the misconceptions I held about healing. I emphasize that many of us often feel the need to have everything perfectly aligned before we share our truths, but this mindset can block our healing process. I share a pivotal moment from my past when I realized that speaking about my struggles not only helped me feel less alone but also opened doors to healing I never...

Own Your Choices Own Your Life

In this episode, I want to share the journey of writing a book. It's a dream for many, with 81% of people expressing a desire to write a book, yet fewer than 1% actually follow through and publish one. I want to challenge you to consider whether you want to be part of the 99% who never take that leap or join the less than 1% who do. Throughout the episode, I explore the common fears and beliefs that hold aspiring authors back. Many struggle with feelings of inadequacy, fearing that their stories aren't significant enough or that they might hurt others. I emphasize that these fears often stem...

In this episode, I have a couple of different perspective shifts when it comes to visualizing your goals and bringing your visions to life.  This episode was inspired by Mel Robbins and one of her podcast episodes and it really hit home when I recognized that I spend more time visualizing the “end game or end product” instead of visualizing the mistakes, the challenges and getting up from them and moving forward. 

In this episode, we discuss:
1)   How can you visualize and focus on the things that don’t go perfectly in the pursuit of your goals and still find the mindset to stay on track?

2)  Where can you recognize your own patterns of self sabotage and see how to catch it earlier and put a plan into action?

3)  Where can you have fun with this process, instead of focusing on perfection, focusing on all the surprising ways that your vision can come to life?
