143// Unhooking you from toxic positivity.
Feel It First Podcast
Its not going to work. The quiet pressure you (or others) put on you to remain high vibe, optimistic and positive, while things could be feeling heavy, clunky, or uncertain. Look at the silver lining. Focus on the positive. Look on the bright side. These won't work for you while you're carrying so much, and holding yourself together. Instead whats going to happen, is youre going to feel pressure. The more you force yourself into a positive state and mindset, and the more you notice it not working, the more you will feel like crap. All the while youre teaching your body that these heavier (and...

142// Why trying harder or putting MORE effort in, isn't working anymore
Feel It First Podcast
I’ve been thinking about something a lot lately. There’s this really specific kind of frustration that happens when trying harder used to work… and now it just doesn’t. Like you know how to be disciplined. You know how to show up. You’ve done hard things before. You’ve built things before. You’re not new to effort. But lately it feels like you’re putting in the same energy and getting half the movement. Or you’re pushing and instead of momentum, you just feel more tired. And that’s the part that’s unsettling. Because if effort has always been your safety net, your...

141// When life looks good on the outside, but inside you feel like crap...
Feel It First Podcast
From the outside, my life looked great... ...even looking at it myself, I could say it was great. I had just had a baby, I was running a successful business, I was living in a beautiful part of the world, It looked great. But truthfully, I was struggling big time. Yes. I had all that I had once wished for, but holding it all was exhausting me. I was going through the biggest identity shift I will ever go through, the maiden to mother shift. I was also very plugged into my business, which was doing well, but the structure of it wasnt working for my new role as a mother. I was in the middle of...

140// Why is it so hard to know what I want?
Feel It First Podcast
"What do you want?" Seems like a simple question. Yet it feels so loaded. You thought you knew, until you realized that a lot of what is on your vision board is heavily influenced by the outside world. So when we take away all that outside influence, what is the truth about what you want? "I don't know", was a common asnwer I would get from my clients. And thats normal for the woman who has felt at capacity and emotionally full for a very long time. Clarity cant emerge when there is no space for it. When all the space is taken up by unfelt emotions, theres no room for it. When...

139// Awareness Just Isn't Enough Anymore
Feel It First Podcast
For a long time, I thought insight was the answer. If I could just understand why I felt the way I did… If I could connect the dots, trace it back, name the pattern…then surely the emotion would loosen its grip. And sometimes it did. But what I noticed over time was this quiet heaviness that stayed. A kind of emotional residue. I could explain my reactions beautifully. I could articulate my triggers. I could even speak about them with awareness and compassion. And yet… my body was still holding something. This is what we don’t talk about enough. Insight without embodiment doesn’t...

138// Manifestation Techniques Aren't Working For You - Here's Why...
Feel It First Podcast
You are at CAPACITY. This is why the mainstream surface level manifestation techniques aren't working for you. It's not because you're failing or doing them wrong... ...you're just tired, overwhelmed and unable to hold anything else right now. You body is rejecting change, newness, and expansion...EVEN THOUGH its exactly what you want. You're full, with no room internally. So those manifestation tecniques wont do much for you right now. Because how can you receive when theres no space for the desires to land? How can you receive when your nervous system doesnt feel safe? In order to...

137// You're Not Unhealed, You're Just Emotionally FULL
Feel It First Podcast
If you still feel reactive, it doesn’t mean you’re unhealed. It means youre emotionally full. You're holding onto a lot of stored emotion, unprocessed experiences and a nervous system that is flooded...no wonder you're reactive. You're holding your family together, tending to everyones needs, leading emotionally, trying to stay composed, managing the reactions of others, all while building a purposeful business behind the scenes. You are exhausted. This is why youre reactive. Reacting (ie flying off the handle) is your nervous systems way of releasing all the pressure of those stored...

Feel It First Podcast
Oh man, its taken me almost 5 months to do this, but I am finally sharing Baby V's birth story. This birth felt redemptive and magical. Im not really sure what to write in the caption to be honest, because theres SO much to tell. One thing I am veryyyyy excited to share is all about her name, my intuition throughout my whole pregnancy, and our reactions to finding out it was a girl not a boy. I know I might sound crazy, because man it was painful, but I would do it all over again. Enjoy the episode <3

135/ How To Maintain The Transformation AFTER The Coaching Relationship Has Ended
Feel It First Podcast
Stop relying on others to get you moving! After having so much amazing transformation in 6 months with a biz mentor, I thought that was it. I had made it. But once the container was over, and I was flying solo in my business, things started to wobble…really wobble. It felt like my business was headed for the ground. What was going wrong? I was doing all the “right” things. I did everything I was taught to do. What was I missing? Then about a year later it hit me. Which frustrated me because of how much I already knew about human emotions at the point....

134// The REAL Reason Mindset Work Has Never Worked For You - Lets Talk Limiting Beliefs & How To Truly Dissolve Them
Feel It First Podcast
Mindset work has a place, but its not enough on its own. Youve probably heard me talk about this alot...and with reason. I've been stuck on the reprogramming train for years, jumping from course to course to try and finally remove the limiting beliefs that are in my way. And while there was some temporary shifts, nothing was permanent or sustainable. Over time, and through my own studying, I have learned something so important and powerful about truly removing and dissolving limiting beliefs. You dont work with the belief. You work with the emotion that sponsers it. The emotion that roots the...
info_outline"What do you want?"
Seems like a simple question. Yet it feels so loaded.
You thought you knew, until you realized that a lot of what is on your vision board is heavily influenced by the outside world.
So when we take away all that outside influence, what is the truth about what you want?
"I don't know", was a common asnwer I would get from my clients.
And thats normal for the woman who has felt at capacity and emotionally full for a very long time.
Clarity cant emerge when there is no space for it.
When all the space is taken up by unfelt emotions, theres no room for it.
When you're emotionally full, receiving is hard.
When youre at capaxity, youre not able to take action towards your true desires.
Clarity is kept buried until youve created the space needed for it to surface.
The truth about what you desire is there. It lies within you. Its not lost or missing.
So if you really want to know the truth about what you desire, then first step is to empty out. To feel whats there, and release the unflet emotions, so theres is room.
Then and only then, will you figure it all out.
