In this episode, I explore the concept that our ability to receive—whether it be love, money, success, or visibility—is intricately tied to the beliefs we hold about ourselves. I emphasize that beliefs are essentially thoughts we repeat, often subconsciously, which create a filter through which we perceive the world. This filter can either open us up to abundance or limit us based on our self-worth and perceived safety. Throughout the episode, I illustrate how limiting beliefs can act as a "kink in the hose," blocking our ability to receive. I share a powerful example of a client who...

In this episode, I reflect on the first six months of 2025 and how I unpack them before setting goals for the remaining six months of the year. It’s essential to acknowledge our resilience and the ways we responded during challenging times. Instead of focusing solely on external validation, I encourage listeners to reflect on their own internal growth and the lessons they have learned. There is this idea of a "gap" between our lofty goals and the subconscious beliefs that may hold us back. This gap can manifest as self-doubt, procrastination, or a fear of visibility. Our subconscious mind...

In this episode, I share some insight on how I shift myself through indecision. The real issue isn't the decision itself but the time and energy we spend in the indecisive state. Prolonged indecision can lead to an energy leak, as we worry about disappointing others or making the wrong choice. I share the concept of training our brains to make aligned decisions more quickly and confidently. Our subconscious mind plays a significant role in our decision-making patterns, often leading us to avoid discomfort and fear associated with making choices. I encourage listeners to recognize that...

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.

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...
info_outlineIn this episode, I wanted to share a concept that you only feel your emotions for 90 seconds.
Harvard brain scientist Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor explains “When a person reacts to something in their environment, there's a 90-second chemical process that happens in the body; after that, any remaining emotional response is just the person choosing to stay in that emotional loop.
In this episode, we discuss:
1) The 90-second rule states that the physiological response, the chemical rush behind our emotions, dissipates after about 90 seconds. If we still feel the rush after that, or heightened emotions it is because our subconscious mind had attached old stories to the emotions. Once our subconscious mind attaches a story to the emotion, now it piles on shame, guilt, and judgment and it becomes part of our identity.
2) Your subconscious mind will always resort back to what is familiar and what it knows so that you can feel safe and protected.
