827 | Rewiring Your Patterns for Ease
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I share the concept of "anchors," a powerful technique from Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). Have you ever tried to push through resistance only to feel disconnected and unnatural? This struggle often stems from limiting beliefs and ingrained strategies that dictate our actions. Just like baking a cake requires a specific order of operations, so does our approach to personal growth. Anchoring allows us to evoke and harness positive emotions—such as confidence, gratitude, and joy—by consciously recalling specific experiences. However, we often anchor negative emotions...

818 | Raising the Floor Before Raising the Bar
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I recount my experience speaking at the Manifest Her event, where I participated in a wealth panel. This opportunity sparked a significant realization about the disconnect between our lofty goals and our self-belief. I emphasize the necessity of raising our "floor"—the foundation of our self-worth and belief in our capabilities—before we can effectively reach higher goals. I discuss how failing to address this gap can lead to a cycle of self-sabotage, where unmet goals diminish our self-esteem even further. I encourage listeners to define their success and assess whether...
info_outlineIn this episode, I am sharing a very personal story, an experience and the impact it has had on me. I have an even deeper belief and conviction that our story is meant to be left as our legacy.
In today’s episode we discuss:
1) Your story matters, the good, the hard, the messy parts, the normal, the feelings, emotions, all of it. How can you stand in that space, remove the blocks, and lean in knowing that you can help someone else. You are perfectly designed to support the person you once were.
2) Picture it being the end of your life, what is the message, the story, that you want to leave with your loved ones, with others, the legacy you want to live on long past your time here?
3) This is actually something that pisses me off, watching people wait, think, overthink, stop themselves, block themselves, and then sit in regret when something difficult happens in their life. What you are waiting for is not coming. Waiting for it to be perfect, for it to be a happy ending means that it’s done and you are done learning and growing, and how relatable is that?
