In this episode, I am sharing the tools of NLP, subconscious reprogramming, and how these tools have changed how I operate in my life and business over the last 3 years. I don’t even recognize myself, and I smile when I see those old versions show up again. Now this is not a slam myself moment, because that is not productive at all. I wanted to share how these tools have made a huge difference in my life and business and maybe you will see yourself in my story. In today’s episode, we discuss: 1) NLP, neurolinguistic programming, came into my life around 10 years ago, although I had...

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...

In this episode, I am leaning into the tools of NLP, subconscious reprogramming, and understanding how powerful our thoughts, emotions, and words are, and how this one-word shift can help you to see yourself differently. Let’s shift the words of self-sabotage to self-protection or self-preservation. Your body is hardwired to crave familiarity, even if it is the discomfort that you say you don’t want. In today’s episode, we discuss: 1) Self-sabotage is a way to protect you from discomfort, from things that might feel scary, or have the fear of failure. What if instead, we...

In this episode, I am leaning into the tools of vulnerability and returning to the power of vulnerability. You deserve to live your life outspoken, lean into vulnerability, take up space, and allow yourself to be seen and heard. To be a great speaker is more than finding your voice, it is to allow yourself to connect with your audience, develop confidence, composure, and understanding of human behaviour and all of these things you can’t do with others if you can’t coach yourself through the ego, fear-based thoughts, self-sabotage, and limiting beliefs. In today’s episode, we...

In this episode, I am sharing some thoughts about unexpressed emotions and how we end up carrying what we are trying to avoid dealing with. Sigmund Freud said, “Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.” We become closed — not only to people's pain — but also to their happiness.
In today’s episode, we discuss:
1) The emotions always come before the thoughts. We feel everything before we can think the thought and comprehend what we are feeling.
2) The effects of suppressed emotions include anxiety, depression, and other stress-related illnesses. This suppression can lead to alcohol and substance abuse. We actually disconnect from ourselves and have a hard time knowing what it is that we actually want. It blocks our intuition with ourselves.
3) The tools of NLP, subconscious reprogramming tools, RRT (Rapid Release Therapy) to continue to release the emotions that are not serving or supporting you.
