907 | When Your Confidence Makes Others Shrink
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I share thoughts on how our confidence can sometimes trigger the insecurities of those around us, leading them to shrink back instead of celebrating our growth. This dynamic is rooted in our individual beliefs and past experiences, which shape how we perceive the world. If our confidence makes someone else shrink, they were never truly cheering for us in the first place. Bless and release and thank them for the role they have played in your life.

Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I am sharing the process of embracing big visions and the fears that often accompany them. I start by sharing a personal anecdote from 2016 when I first received the idea to write my solo book.

A mentor pointed out the difference between that experience and my current...

899 | Why Strategy Isn’t Enough to Share Your Story
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, we are on the brink of a significant milestone—episode 900! As I prepare to share more of my journey in the upcoming episode, I want to dive deep into a topic that I believe is crucial for anyone looking to make an impact, whether through writing, coaching, speaking, or any other form of expression. Today, I discuss the importance of sharing your story and how it connects to building genuine relationships with others. Many people underestimate the power of their narrative, thinking that strategy alone will lead to success. Strategy is only 5% of the equation; the remaining...
info_outlineIn this episode, I dive deep into the significance of our thoughts and how they shape our reality.
I emphasize the importance of owning our thoughts and stories, explaining that they will own us if we don’t take control. I discuss the concept that we cannot outthink how our bodies feel, highlighting the disconnect many experiences between our conscious thoughts and subconscious emotions. I encourage listeners to recognize when fear or anxiety arises and to understand that these feelings are often rooted in past experiences and trapped emotions.
Throughout the episode, I stress the necessity of tuning into our bodies to release these stuck emotions, which can hinder our ability to create change and connect with others. I share insights on maintaining a regulated nervous system, which is crucial for holding space for ourselves and others on stage or in everyday conversations.
I also touch on my experiences as a speaker, illustrating how being in tune with my emotions allowed me to connect more authentically with my audience. I encourage listeners to find their own "stage" in daily interactions and to practice being present and empathetic in their conversations.
Finally, I share a resource for listeners—a free audio subliminal and hypnosis guide designed to help connect with their higher selves below in the show notes.
