Own Your Choices Own Your Life
As we approach Christmas and the end of the year, I’m excited to dive into a topic that has been transformative in my life: scripting.

Initially, I used colourful markers and creative writing to express what I wanted to change in my life, unaware of the deeper principles of NLP and subconscious programming that would later enhance my practice. In this episode, I reflect on my journey with scripting, starting from dissatisfaction in various aspects of my life—business,...

info_outlineIn this episode, I am sharing a message I received in my dm’s about how to shift from feeling like we’re too old for change, how the rooms aren’t meant for all of us, and that things have to stop for us because of our age.
In today’s episode we discuss:
1) What are you waiting for? What story are you telling yourself about why you have to wait for x, y or z to happen before you can start? Who says we’re too old? It isn’t coming from others, it is the message in our own head.
2) What if you are exactly where you are supposed to be? What if you are perfectly designed to be exactly where you are right now? What if you now have the knowledge, experience, and expertise to be able to hold that new experience?
3) What you are waiting for is not coming. Rooms are calling for you to step into and you have gifts at any age that you can use to support others with, so let’s change the narrative and say yes to the work we are being called here to do.
