752 | How EFT Can Help You
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I dive deep into the concept of why EFT tapping works, explore the intricate workings of our subconscious mind and how EFT tapping can help us reprogram our thoughts and emotions. As children, we absorb information through our senses, processing 2.3 million bytes of data per second. However, our brains can only handle 126 bits of information, leading to a filtering process where we distort, delete, or generalize information to make sense of it. This filtering process can lead to the internalization of negative emotions and perceptions, disrupting our body's energy...

749: What You Are Avoiding, You Are Keeping Alive
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I wanted to share thoughts on avoidance, why you might be avoiding something, and how you can shift through that stuck emotion. In this episode, we discuss: 1) Avoidance is a way to make you feel in control, to avoid rejection or to avoid discomfort. Avoidance behaviour is a way to cope with uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. Many people rely on avoidance as a coping mechanism, which can seem like the easier path compared to confrontation — but avoidance can be harmful in the long run, leading to more fear, anxiety, and unhealthy habits 2) Your...

747 | What Does Fear Mean About You?
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I wanted to share thoughts on fear, what fear is, what it is trying to do, and how to change your relationship with fear so that it doesn’t have to hold you back in your life. Fear is a primal response that tries to keep you safe and protected, exactly what your subconscious mind is built to do. “Fear can have a voice, it doesn’t get a vote.” by Elizabeth Gilbert. Stop trying to rid yourself of fear; it doesn’t go away; you build a better relationship with it. Fear can keep you safe; it has well-meaning intentions, yet it doesn’t get the deciding vote or the...

744 | The Intense Hold of Anger and Sadness
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I wanted to share some insight into emotions in our bodies and how they continue to contribute to the stories we tell ourselves. Our emotions can put us on a roller coaster daily; if we haven’t been taught how to feel them, recognize and process them if we have also been told to be afraid of them, we don’t know what to do with them. Then those unknown emotions become scary and unknown, and our subconscious mind deems unknown and unfamiliar as unsafe, so we avoid them at all costs. “The mind is a superb instrument if used rightly. Used wrongly, however, it becomes...

743 | What To Do When it Feels Like Life Is Pushing You
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I wanted to share thoughts on what to do when life feels like pushing you or putting pressure on you and how to handle failure or setbacks because of it. First off, I am not a huge fan of the word failure because we are never failing, and there is no such thing as failure, only feedback. In this episode, we discuss: 1) How do you keep lif’ing when it feels like life is really hard? Do you meet it with a ton of resistance, pushback and fighting, which only decreases your ability to meet yourself with compassion or grace? 2) Remember that everything is...
info_outlineIn this episode, I am sharing an answer to a question I was asked as a recent podcast guest on my friend Fallon’s podcast, Prosperity By Design, and she asked me a question that had me reflecting. She was a guest on my show back in 2021, a little over 400 episodes ago, crazy I know, and she said she was listening to a few recent episodes and wanted to share how much my confidence, and certainty in my voice have changed. She wanted to know what I had done differently. I wanted to share my thoughts and answers.
In today’s episode, we discuss:
1) I actually think I have failed way more than people would realize, more programs and ideas haven’t worked, collaborations that didn’t continue, projects I started and stopped, and that left me with a lot of doubt and frustration, yet failure can be your friend. It is required, it will teach you more than you can imagine. “Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of success.” ~ Unknown
2) The work of NLP, aka OUTSPOKEN has definitely had an effect on my confidence, also because subconscious reprogramming has helped me to recognize my blind spots, to see those old stories pop up, to not make them mean anything about me, and to know that with every NO that I am closer to the yes’. The no’s have taught me a lot these past three years; pivot is an understatement. It has been a non-stop pivot journey but instead of throwing tons of spaghetti on the wall, I go inward first, quiet the noise, listen to what lights me up, say yes to that more, and allow myself to fail and get back up again.
