In this episode, I am sharing the tools of NLP, subconscious reprogramming, and understanding how your subconscious mind works. It literally doesn’t understand time, at the subconscious level, the mind remembers everything and it can travel time. Our subconscious mind is constantly trying to protect us, keep us safe, and prevent us from feeling pain. So you might hear that you have to stay present with your thoughts, yet sometimes that doesn’t feel possible. Here’s a permission slip to see your thoughts differently, give yourself some grace and know that your mind is trying...

In this episode, I am leaning into the tools of NLP, subconscious reprogramming, and understanding the power of your thoughts, what if you thought of thoughts as clouds instead of plants? Clouds move, they come in and go, they never stay and they don’t anchor in place. Plants take up space, they grow roots, get stronger, take water, and nourishment, and gain life, and will eventually take over if you don’t take care of them. In today’s episode, we discuss: 1) Let’s back it up and look at what a belief is. A belief is simply a thought that you continue to...

In this episode, I want to ask you a question, can you trust the things/reasons that you cannot see? How fast can you move forward when things don’t make sense, when you put the goals out there and things are not unfolding in the way you had planned, the way you anticipated or desired? How do you show up when it looks like it isn’t working out? In today’s episode, we discuss: 1) Building inner trust, intuition, and a knowing that there’s a reason why some things are not working out for you, that there is always a reason, and that the universe is not on your timeline...
info_outlineIn this episode, I am sharing some thoughts about authenticity and how it is connected with our ability to let ourselves be disliked. This is a tough one as so many of us have struggled with pleasing people, wanting to be liked, not wanting to rock the boat or upset others. We may struggle to be authentic due to lack of self-esteem, fear of judgment by others, and a strong desire for others to like us.
In today’s episode we discuss:
1) A “people pleaser” personality means a person feels a strong urge to please others, even at their own expense. They may feel that their wants and needs do not matter or alter their personality around others. People-pleasing prioritizes the needs of others at the expense of your own, while kindness requires giving equal consideration to the needs of others and to your own.
2) Authenticity means you're true to your own personality, values, and spirit, regardless of the pressure that you're under to act otherwise. When you recognize that you’re ok with being disliked, then you will allow yourself more space or leeway to be authentic with yourself and with others.
