My Next Big Act & Goodbye For Now with Dr. Meghan Walker 05/30/2023

My Next Big Act & Goodbye For Now with Dr. Meghan Walker Brace yourselves! This episode of IMPACT unveils a seismic decision that will shake the very foundation of Meghan’s world. In this episode, Meghan shares her realization that to take things to a much bigger level of impact, there are things she needs to let go of blindly. There are things she needs to let go of not necessarily knowing what is on the other side because they are tethering her from the full view. Moving to the next level is not about harder work, it's about harder decisions. Meghan believes that to lead other people, we have to be willing to lead ourselves not just with our voice, but with our actions. So with that in mind, Meghan has decided to take a sabbatical from the IMPACT Podcast. She is committed to making huge leaps on an emotional level, on a financial level, and on a ‘potential for failure’ level because her vision for impact is huge. Life is less about what you do, more about how you make people feel, and everything about how you choose to show up in the world. But fear not, as Meghan clarifies this sabbatical is not a goodbye in any way. This is not the end of the show, this is the end of act one. Meghan's fearless choice will compel you to examine your life through a lens of unwavering clarity and empower you to release anything that no longer serves your future. Hit play now to embrace the changes needed for your next chapter, your next act.

That may or may not inspire you to take similar actions in your own life and in your own world. I'm excited for this next step.” -Dr. Meghan Walker “I'd love for this to be a moment where you two look at your life with ruthless clarity and confidence and acknowledge the things that may not be serving the next chapter, the next act." -Dr. Meghan Walker “I have a vision for how I want to live my own life and it is not constantly pushed up against the wall. And I've worked really hard to create certain freedoms in my life and yet I engage in an ongoing manner in the behaviors that keep me pushed there.” -Dr. Meghan Walker “I have committed six and a half years, 327 episodes of conversations. It has been an enabler of ticket sales and traffic and growth of my clinical practice. It has been a launching ground for new programs and new phases of my life. It is also at a place where I feel like I can tie a beautiful bow on this experience, that I can look at this podcast with immense gratitude for what it has brought into my life.” -Dr. Meghan Walker /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/26982012

She is direct, compassionate, and experienced. She does not hold back because honesty is the only way to heal emotional wounds. Society trains women to hold back, but being a good girl will inevitably lead to unhappiness, people-pleasing, and a lacklustre existence. You don’t need to succumb to the cultural narrative any longer. Geeta teaches you how to face your deepest fears, especially your fear of failure. Geeta reveals the blinders and traps that keep you stuck playing the good girl so that you can become a woman of IMPACT. Her motto is “anything is possible. If you can see it, you can do it; if you can dream it, you can make it happen. Listen to this powerful conversation and then get after it!

The good girl will never be happy. The good girl will never have self-respect. The good girl will never have self-love. The good girl will never permeate with lush abundant femininity, because they are directly opposite, so the good girl is never going to be happy, and she doesn’t know how to cope with it, so she tries to make it someone else's fault.” -Geeta Sidhu-Robb “The one thing I want everybody to think about is that actually the control to change this is in your hands. It's a hundred percent in your hands. Because if you take responsibility for being appalling, then I want you to take responsibility for the fact that you can change that as well. You must. You can't take responsibility for one and not the other.” -Geeta Sidhu-Robb “The fear of these things will not stop bad things happening to you. So if they're gonna happen, why don't you just have control over your own life instead?” -Geeta Sidhu-Robb /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/26886909

And, as the Harvard study found, the number one precursor of a healthy, happy life is good relationships.” -Sam Horn “We want to turn fight, flight and freeze into flow so that in the moment we can say something that helps instead of hurts.” -Sam Horn “We're not taught this in school.

My Journey of Building More Strength and Power in 2023... An Update with Dr. Meghan Walker Are you stuck in an endless self-destructive pattern? Each of us is on our own spiritual journey, and it takes courage to acknowledge our weaknesses, but once you take ownership of your faults you can break free from the paradigm and forge a new path to your authentic self. On this episode of IMPACT, Meghan shares about her continued commitment to building her WORTH ethic as discussed previously in episode 311 “Why I Burned Out In 2022 & How I Am Going To Fix It.” Meghan details the shift in her physical and mental well-being after she devoted herself to an honest self-assessment. She learned that you can not free yourself from negative patterns until you acknowledge they exist. The essential you is worthy, although your ego can prevent you from expressing your authentic self. With each experience, you develop new neural pathways and expectations that shape your worldview and behavior. Without healthy self-awareness, you can get stuck in a negative feedback loop. You can break free from learned behaviors, patterns, and the stories that keep you from stepping into your full power. Meghan speaks to the power of self-reflection and self-love. You can blame others for how they treat you, but you can only control how you treat yourself. As you build awareness of your inner voice, you can repair negative self-talk to stop cycles of endless negativity and self-doubt. How you treat yourself sets the standard for everyone around you. People instinctually pick up on your behavior, so be kind to yourself, and you may be surprised to find that the world is a loving arena to play in.

MEGHAN WALKER MEMORABLE QUOTES: “If you can’t treat yourself the way you want to be treated, it is a really hard sell to get other people to do it for you.” -Dr. Meghan Walker “Get really clear about telling what it is precisely that we want. This assumption that if we’re nice to other people they should just know, cause they love us enough, leads us down a dead road of assumptions and storytelling.” -Dr. Meghan Walker “What’s right for me doesn’t have to be right for other people to still be right for me, and it might sound so simple, but it is so profound.” -Dr. Meghan Walker “We've been fed a narrative that these people exist in the world who can read every single desire you have in your heart because they love you enough. What if that actually isn't true at all? What if part of your job is to just be really clear on the things that you need to thrive physically and emotionally and with compassion you share those.” -Dr. Meghan Walker “Sometimes when we are leading a movement, we need to recognize that not everyone is going to want to walk alongside that.” -Dr. Meghan Walker /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/26548998

You can have less money than you want to have and still be in integrity.” Kiné Corder “Can you shift your prosperity birthright? Sure you can, but that’s the work you were talking about. You’ve got to do your work.” Kiné Corder “You’ll need emotional mastery and part of emotional mastery doesn’t mean that you’re good at all the areas of what I call the money cycle, it just means you know which ones are your strengths and which ones you might be challenged with and you work around them.” Kiné Corder “I want us to be able to talk about money in a forward momentum capacity while simultaneously honoring the trauma that seems to be triggered when we, when we go there. And the intention here is that we find a way forward so that these two things can move into a state of momentum simultaneously. Because I don't want, I don't want people's progress with respect to money to be shelved while we're unpacking the trauma piece. I actually feel like money can be a catalyst to unpack these components.” Dr. Meghan Walker “It's really hard to talk about where we could go if we don't acknowledge where we came from.” Dr. Meghan Walker /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/26446380

A Crash Course in Leadership and Earning Respect with Sam Horn 03/28/2023

A Crash Course in Leadership and Earning Respect with Sam Horn How do you earn respect?

On this episode of IMPACT, Meghan is joined by Sam Horn, an accomplished author of 9 award-winning books, an impactful speaker and expert in powerful language who has coached entrepreneurs all over the world. Sam believe one of the best ways we can disrupt the way we do business is to disrupt the way we communicate and together with Meghan, redefines what it means to be a "powerful leader." Respect is never demanded, it’s earned. How you communicate outweighs what you are communicating. Every interaction either builds a relationship or undermines it. Proper communication can empower you and your audience. Can you summarize your vision in 60 seconds? That’s how quickly you lose the attention of your audience! Sam teaches you how to get attention and hold it and how to harness your power through her leadership framework.

The word imagine pulls people out of their preoccupation because they’re picturing your point! They’re not distracted, they’re seeing what you’re saying.” -Sam Horn “We can either reflect what is happening or we can direct what is happening, and if we are paying attention to the nuance, and to what we do want, instead of what we don’t, we often can say something that will facilitate that.” -Sam Horn “In the real world, there are times we are the messenger of bad news, and we can’t change the bad news. We can change the way we deliver the bad news, so at least people know that we care, instead of shrugging our shoulders, not my fault, don’t blame me, nothing I can do.” -Sam Horn “Richard Branson said, time is the new money. And I think that time is a new trust and the clock starts ticking the second we stop talking. So if we hit the ground running, then people's eyebrows go up and we have earned their respect because we've already delivered value.” -Sam Horn "A huge part of leadership is about listening and reading the room." -Sam Horn “The language we use is so important, as it can either create a sense of powerlessness or empowerment in ourselves and others.” -Sam Horn "The through line from power to powerful and the thing that enables the zipline from one to the other is work on or acknowledgement of your self-worth. And the deeper your self-worth goes, the easier it is to move towards places that make you powerful as opposed to hanging onto power." -Dr. Meghan Walker "When we have a rising tide mentality, power is just defined as the ability to get things done. And if we want to get things done, then the more we enlist people and cooperate with them and make it a win for them, the more they will want to do this instead of they have to, or they're being paid to or they're being told to." -Sam Horn "Our role and goal in life is to be a peacemaker and to see how we can use language and set an example so other people respond in kind." -Sam Horn /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/26292723

Trusting that you are in the right place at the right time. Doing the work so that you have the power, and strength to hold a presence in a particular room. Whether that is across from your client or whether that is in decision-making in your business. This ownership of authority is sometimes something we have not been socialized to have.” Dr. Meghan Walker “If you make the decision to hand power to this lateral validation crew, then what happens is, you are giving permission to their opinions to set your standard for success.” Dr. Meghan Walker “If you decide that the opinions of your colleagues matter, then what happens is, you’re going to be held back to the lowest common denominator level.” Dr. Meghan Walker /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/26260116

It's time to stop reacting and start setting boundaries that protect your values. Are you struggling to express your boundaries? Adele has a powerful message for you. When it comes to contracts, there must be mutual love and respect for each other's non-negotiable values. Adele will shift your understanding of contracts and reveal what happens when you cross boundaries in business. As a holistic nutritionist and mindset coach for female entrepreneurs, Adele understands the power of contracts as a sacred tool that upholds a code of conduct, even when emotions run high. When you fall out of alignment with the divine feminine and begin acting from the wounded feminine, you may fall into destructive patterns. In business, anger is a destructive force, but Adele has the solution. By formulating a contract that protects your values, you can avoid toxic behaviors like manipulation and aggression with your associates. Setting boundaries is an act of love for yourself and those who enter into a contract with you. It's time to start operating with integrity and create a sacred contract that truly supports your success. Ready to become solution-oriented and balance your boundaries with empathy? Don't miss this enlightening conversation with Adele Tevlin.

When she’s in her divine feminine, she’s grounded, she’s powerful, she’s full of integrity, she’s in her most mature state, but when a woman is in her fractured feminine, and she’s got her back against the wall or she’s triggered, she goes into things like being a victim. She goes into behaviors like manipulation.” Adele Tevlin “It’s all unicorns and rainbows when you’re happy, but the minute something goes wrong, all of us are primordial minds that will go into defensiveness or reaction, so intelligence is actually low. The contract is there to serve as that sacred template, no matter what the circumstances are.” Adele Tevlin "Boundaries are compassionate. Boundaries are an act of love. Boundaries are a communion between two people that says, "I respect you, you respect me." Adele Tevlin “What am I telling my consciousness if I don't uphold my contract? My contract means nothing. And for me, my word is law.” Adele Tevlin "When we can heal collectively as women we have the power to really change not just the world but the fabric of how women do business together and the impact that we can have.” Adele Tevlin "Most people operate their business with standards rather than boundaries." Adele Tevlin "There's a part two of this conversation which is how to have difficult conversations cuz we're not good at that. So I think sometimes we resort to manipulation because it saves us from having to have a challenging conversation. And in our own mind it reconciles the situation to make it the other person’s fault.” Dr. Meghan Walker This episode of IMPACT was brought to you by Practice Better.

That is a resource that we have a privilege to have, but we shouldn't make the loan the bad guy. -Mary Shores “It can feel like someone has taken advantage of us. It can feel all different kinds of ways, but I think we don’t talk about it, and what we really need to do is have solutions in place, understand this as a business function and a business role, make plans for it accordingly, but more importantly, learn to let go of it!” -Mary Shores “When you talk to someone, you're asking them questions, you’re getting them to open up. You’re getting them to discuss the emotions of it, and what we know from social psychologists is that discussing the emotions behind a feeling helps those feelings dissipate.” - Mary Shores "There's a deep shame associated with owing money." - Mary Shores "When I engage with someone and deliver a service for someone, this is like a sacred act of my life's work.

That would've been really, really helpful cuz I was toiling under the mindset that I had to do everything myself because no one would help me or wanted to help me.” -Dave Asprey “When you look at the human body, there is probably a separate intelligence running your meat, that is not you and is faster than you! -Dave Asprey “There is no one who wants to be healthy as their first thing except people who are incredibly sick like I was when I had chronic fatigue. When you can’t get out of bed because you’re sick, when you think you might die, that’s when you want your health back.” -Dave Asprey “When you really learn how to manifest what you’re doing is, you’re interfacing with your operating system and you’re getting in alignment and you’re telling it that it is safe and should expect to see something, and when it expects to see something, it will see it and when it sees it, it’s real.” -Dave Asprey “Your immune cells the mast cells, they’re looking for potential threats and when they find one they explode and release all sorts of mitochondrial signaling molecules called inflammatory cytokines, so if you were to just look at mast cells and look at mitochondrial function, you would solve about 90% of what’s going on in medicine.” -Dave Asprey This episode of IMPACT was brought to you by Practice Better.

Creating A Signature Approach To Transformation 02/21/2023

Creating A Signature Approach To Transformation The age of transactional care is coming to an end! Artificial Intelligence is disrupting every industry and medicine is no exception. On this episode of IMPACT, host Dr. Meghan Walker tested this theory and asked ChatGPT to create a plan for menopausal women and it formulated a program that could easily replace the first 4 visits with most doctors. What does this mean for care providers? It means that you need to provide more than just the essentials, you need to provide transformational care! You won’t help people by lowering costs, if you want to truly help your patients you need to innovate what you offer. Creating a signature system in your clinical practice, not only helps your patients but also future proofs your business against AI innovations. Meghan maps out how to design a transformational care plan using her A.C.T.I.O.N framework, just 6 steps that will take your practice to a whole new level to attract clients and keep them. To provide life changing care, you need to be specific about exactly who you intend to transform and how you’re going to do it. Serving everyone usually serves no one, so commiting to a niche is an important step in crafting your signature system. By stepping outside the norms of care, you will set yourself apart from practitioners who are strictly transactional. Creating a system aimed at transformation gives patients emotional support, resources and a deeper understanding of what is happening in their own body. Want to take this A.C.T.I.O.N framework, break it down to the granular level and build out your signature approach to care? Then join Meghan on March 9th at her Signature Care System Implementation Lab. By the end of the day, you'll have gotten actual work done to create a unique care plan that will attract clients, add another barrier between yourself and a technology like ChatGPT, future-proof your business, and move it away from a series of transactions and into a transformational experience. Listen to this week’s episode and register for The Signature Care System Implementation Lab with Dr. Meghan Walker on March 9th from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m EST at . Let’s set a new standard for care and take your business to a whole new level! KEY TAKEAWAYS [4:10] Is Artificial Intelligence an existential threat to humanity? [7:30] How AI is quickly going to disrupt every industry, even the medical industry [12:00] AI is increasing it’s intelligence at a compounded and exponential rate [13:30] How to mitigate your risks against AI within your practice [15:10] Leaving the old model behind and forging a transformational approach to care [20:00] Designing a care plan that enables patients to transform [23:40] Identifying the niche that you are offering transformation to [27:50] Moving away from appointment setting based on blocks of time into the function of it [31:40] Tapping into the A.C.T.I.O.N framework [44:30] March 9th: Designing your signature care system HOW TO CONNECT WITH DR. MEGHAN WALKER Signature Care Implementation Lab with Dr. Meghan Walker March 9th 10 - 4 EST - MEMORABLE QUOTES “This is not because I am sitting her with massive amounts of data and evidence that your particular industry, medical practitioners, naturopathic doctors, functional medicine docs, TCM practitioners, all of you are necessarily going to be threatened by this but I can say it is likely to disrupt what you are doing.” Dr. Meghan Walker “When you are delivering a transformational experience, when you design your own signature care system, you create another barrier between yourself and a technology like ChatGPT.” Dr. Meghan Walker “When you’re designing out transformation and you are delivering it as the strategist, I want you to think of it as a hat. Any clinician can wear any type of hat. It’s the strategist who earns the most because it’s the strategist who has the most responsibility. It’s the strategist who designs and refines the transformational process.” Dr. Meghan Walker “For patients, when they can get a more comprehensive, insightful understanding of what’s happening in their body, it significantly elevates compliance.” Dr. Meghan Walker “I want to examine this topic from a really objective place because I think one of the thinking traps we could move into on this is that, oh, I've got time because I'm in one of these impenetrable vocations that's not necessarily gonna be on the first target hit list for artificial intelligence.” Dr. Meghan Walker “One of the cool things that we see when we move someone from a transactional system of care to a transformational system of care is we actually see those patients and those practitioners working with one another three times longer. There is a financial benefit to that because you are interacting with that patient three times longer.” Dr. Meghan Walker This episode of IMPACT was brought to you by The DNA Company.

7 Tools To Shift Your Relationship With Money Today 02/14/2023

7 Tools To Shift Your Relationship With Money Today Do you feel disempowered by your assumptions around money? This week on IMPACT, Dr. Meghan Walker is busting the money myths and mindset mistakes that are dictating your relationship with money so you can break free from limiting beliefs and take control of your financial future. Throughout the episode, Meghan breaks down the four levels of her money mindset framework, so you can assess where you are in your relationship with money. Building your future state begins with being ruthlessly honest and truly acknowledging where you are and where you would like to be. Once you know what level you’re playing at, you can adjust your mindset and take on a new course of action to change the trajectory of your finances. Your parents' attitude towards finances, your past financial blunders, and your expectation around money heavily influence your beliefs of what is financially possible. This is why Meghan also breaks down the 7 tools you need to shift your relationship with money into a higher vibration to toss aside your limiting beliefs and grab hold of the financial situation you desire. And what if we treated and committed to our relationship with money the way we do our other relationships? Then what might be possible? Tune in to this week’s episode to find out! Oh and FYI, you’re going to want to make sure you’re in front of your keyboard, ready to go in your notes section on your phone or with paper and pen in hand to capture all the crucial information Meghan lays down to shift your relationship with money today. KEY TAKEAWAYS [2:00] When the mind decides that something is impossible [5:20] Your ardent belief that it is not possible is the only thing keeping it from happening [7:30] The psychology of money and the dangers of categorizing yourself with limiting beliefs [9:40] Understanding what your origin level is within the framework of quantum wealth [11:40] The lie that money comes from outside forces and is unattainable [15:35] Hoarding your money clocks the fluidity of money and shuts off financial creativity [21:23] Knowing what game you’re playing and honestly accessing the level you’re at [24:30] Building a skill set and a strategy to deploy your investment into your growth [28:10] Be ruthlessly honest with yourself and acknowledging your current financial situation [29:25] Get clear on what you need to earn, what you want to earn and understand why [33:25] Identifying your money leaks, so you can put systems in play to form a better outcome [34:50] Categorize the money myths from your childhood and creating alternative possibilities [37:30] Describe your new relationship with money and take responsibility for your part in it HOW TO CONNECT WITH DR. MEGHAN WALKER MEMORABLE QUOTES “When it comes to achieving a future outcome, losing weight, building wealth; the part of our brain that protects us from putting in too much effort only to be disappointed, it is fully lit up in both of these paths.” Dr. Meghan Walker “Shift the mindset pieces, so that you are open to making different decisions, and when you make different decisions and align them with different actions, you get a different outcome. That’s just the way building a future state works.” Dr. Meghan Walker “The more we say “I'm not like them”, without actually understanding what they are like, we encase ourselves in the energy of the work, win windfall vibration, and it is a vibration and it’s a very disempowering vibration frankly, because you have no control of your financial destiny.” Dr. Meghan Walker “If you don't believe your actions are actually going to warrant any kind of outcome for you, you're not gonna take them in the first place. And so we have to shift that belief system and to shift that belief system, what we really need to do is we have to lift the veil on the story.” Dr. Meghan Walker “The core thinking trap that defines that “win work windfall” level is that money comes from other sources, money comes from work, money comes because I want it in a lottery or money comes because I inherited it. And if those things don't happen for you, it's like you just can't see that there are any other ways that money may come into your life.” Dr. Meghan Walker “I can't wait to help you change more lives, have more impact, and put more money in your pocket along the way.” Dr. Meghan Walker This episode of IMPACT was brought to you by The DNA Company.

Why I Burned Out in 2022 & How I Am Going to Fix It 02/07/2023

Why I Burned Out in 2022 & How I Am Going to Fix It Get ready for a game changing episode of IMPACT! You’ve certainly never heard an episode like this before. This is for two reasons. One, because host Dr. Meghan Walker drops powerful truths about entrepreneurship and reflects on her own experience with burnout at the end of 2022. Meghan loves her work and this feeling of burn out was not a result of work overload. It was actually the result of client relations that had failed to honor their sacred contract. After some self reflection, Meghan realized she was stuck in self created resentment because she failed to set and uphold her own boundaries. She was taking ownership of others' emotional issues which prevented them from following through on their agreed upon financial responsibilities. By allowing others to negate their own commitments, she denied them and herself the opportunity to grow. A much needed break over Christmas and the New Year resulted in the perfect time to recognize that leading to the next level meant setting clear boundaries and by holding people accountable to their commitments she was elevating how they operate in the world of business. And two, because Meghan sets the stage for the trajectory of the podcast in 2023. And it’s massive. It’s exciting. And it is definitely going to lead to major IMPACT. Meghan has committed to focusing on the concept of a "worth ethic" - the activities, commitments, and decisions that elevate our value as leaders and help us avoid burnout. That expands our capacity for contribution, for vision and where we can go next. And so this year, the content of the IMPACT podcast is going to focus exactly on this! Meghan will pursue ideas that take us to the fringe, explore concepts that might make you feel uncomfortable and discuss topics that in an instant are going to shed from you, the stories and the limiting beliefs that have been holding you back. Follow along with the IMPACT podcast and you can expect to master your worth ethic and thrive as a leader in 2023! KEY TAKEAWAYS [2:30] For the first time Meghan experienced burnout. She had nothing left in her and felt unmotivated [4:30] Gaining perspective on the things that were holding her back [5:50] Gaining clarity on the things driving her burnout [7:20] How resentment was the culmination of poor boundaries [8:30] Meghan’s resentment [9:25] Taking ownership and letting clients off the hook for their emotional state [10:50] Manipulative conversations that left her feeling responsible for clients negligence [11:50] Realizing it was her duty to set and hold boundaries [12:40] The sacred contract and enforcing compassionate boundaries [13:45] Holding people accountable to their commitments elevates how they operate in business [17:20] Committing to worth ethic: the decisions that expand our capacity as a leader [18:20] Redefining your worth ethic in 2023 HOW TO CONNECT WITH DR. MEGHAN WALKER MEMORABLE QUOTES “Resentment, for me, was always accompanied by having poor boundaries in a particular area. When I become resentful of someone or a situation it is usually because I was not clear in articulating or because I didn't know what my boundaries were at any given moment.” Dr. Meghan Walker “I was witnessing, in real time, how I was enabling other people to sabotage their own commitments, with respect to money, and I too was acting out a pattern that I had become familiar with in my own life.” Dr. Meghan Walker “I was just sort of in denial. I was in denial of acknowledging it. I was in denial of how I was gonna have to address it. And then even as I turned on my mic to record this, I was in denial of having to admit it to my listeners.” Dr. Meghan Walker “I am an empathetic person and I am an empathetic person with boundaries in progress.And one of the things I realized I was consistently doing is I was taking ownership for what was happening in their emotional state and the way I was taking ownership of it, which is really none of my business to do, and not part of what my sacred contract with these clients is all about. I was letting people off the hook for having to pay and follow up.” Dr. Meghan Walker “It also enabled me to get really clear on this idea of a sacred contract. This idea that when you engage in business with someone or you make a commitment to someone, that you give them your word. And when you give someone your word more than checking that box in the terms of conditions or any other pieces, this is a reflection of your integrity and your brand.” Dr. Meghan Walker This episode of IMPACT was brought to you by The DNA Company.

This Sucks, Now What? with Dr. Neeta Bhushan 01/31/2023

This Sucks, Now What? with Dr. Neeta Bhushan Join host Dr. Meghan Walker on this week's episode of IMPACT as she sits down with Dr. Neeta Bhushan, a world-renowned speaker on grit and resilience, co-founder of the Dharma Coaching Institute and co-founder of Global Grit Institute, a mental-health training platform for leaders. Together, they explore the importance of facing our negative emotions head-on, instead of hiding them away as we strive for success. As high-achievers, we often want to hide our emotions and push them away as we strive for the next level of success. However, this is an unhealthy way to deal with negative emotions, and it can ultimately take a toll on our psyche, well-being, and even our sense of self-respect and self-worth. In this powerful and inspiring conversation, Dr. Bhushan provides valuable strategies for dealing with negative emotions and overcoming challenges. She explains that it's important to feel the emotions, identify the limiting beliefs and then reframe the stories in our heads to learn from our mistakes, setbacks, and failures. By facing our negative emotions head-on, we can turn them into opportunities for growth and cultivate the mindset of a resilient person. Dr. Bhushan also shares her personal journey and the insights she gained from her own experiences, including the lessons she learned from writing her latest book, "That Sucked, Now What?".

But what about just feeling it to heal it.” Dr. Neeta Bhushan “The capacity to take that pain and not suppress it or move it deep into the holding tanks of your emotional toes, but to actually face them head on.” Dr. Neeta Bhushan “Many times we tend to overwork ourselves and distract ourselves because we're running away from things that are so deeply wounded in our own personal life. And that was my bandaid.” Dr. Neeta Bhushan “I wasn't even 30 yet and had all of these trappings of success, but internally, I was spiritually dead.” Dr. Neeta Bhushan “We're so afraid of diving into the depths of that pain to really uncover and sit with the beauty and the magic of what comes up as a result of it that can truly change our life.” Dr. Neeta Bhushan This episode of IMPACT was brought to you by The DNA Company.

Meghan sits down with three accomplished women: Mary Shores, Adele Tevlin, and April Stroink who share their insights on how to embrace your feminine energy, overcome confidence gaps, and cultivate self-love to achieve financial and personal success.

This can be difficult to do when we're surrounded by men in similar roles, but cultivating self-love and a sense of abundance is crucial when it comes to our ability to achieve our goals. The discussion also touches on the importance of keeping emotion out of money decisions and realizing that health and wealth go hand in hand. Financial health is one of the pillars of our overall health, and when we're successful financially and have a healthy relationship with money, we're able to serve people in our communities and have a greater impact.

We need to be able to let that go.” Mary Shores “You build up your container, you fill yourself up, you fill up your capacity to lead and to love, and then you're overflowing with it because love is infinite.” Adele Tevlin “We all have a masculine and feminine energy, or part of us, it's kind of like the ying and the yang.” Adele Tevlin “The biggest mistake that I see business owners make is chasing the top line and really getting away from the core of their business.” April Stroink “Part of being a female leader is about balance. When you self care, mentally, emotionally, and physically you actually expand your capacity for all the pieces. That is why it is a limiting belief, ladies, that you don’t have time for yourself. The secret to being able to do more is actually to do more for yourself.” Dr. Meghan Walker “There's a part of your brain that when you visualize, it's actually using the same neural networks as if you are actually practicing it. So visualization is key. Adele Tevlin “Understanding financial health and how to get there and how to wrap your mindset around it is absolutely going to distinguish you when it comes to how you're working with your patients.” Dr. Meghan Walker “I so often see that the business is running the owner versus the other way around.” April Stroink This episode has been brought to you by The Confident Clinician.

Stop Waiting For Permission And Step Into Your State Of Self-Authorization 01/17/2023

Stop Waiting For Permission And Step Into Your State Of Self-Authorization This week’s episode of IMPACT is one for the books! It combines interviews with two of Meghan Walker’s previous guests whose insight and knowledge surrounding mindset and self-authorization is astounding. Dr. Shyamala Kiru, a registered psychotherapist and family and couple therapist works in particular with high-performing, high achieving women and mothers who are juggling multiple roles and identities. She discusses with Meghan that to navigate our relationships and improve our quality of life we must master our ability to communicate assertively. When each person in a relationship is responsive and not reactive, where they can make choices from an informed and self-regulated place, the relationship will thrive. When we access our emotional intelligence we have the capacity for incredible impact. David Bayer, a motivational coach, digital entrepreneur and author of MindHack.com is one of the emerging thought leaders in the evolution of mindset. He believes that using your mind to rewire and reorganize the brain is the linchpin of human evolution. There are two states of being – powerful and primal. Powerful states include happiness, joy, calm and curiosity. Stress, anxiety, overwhelm and fear being primal states. If we give ourselves permission to feel good enough, then we exist in the powerful state. The fears diminish and happiness and abundance rule, giving us the opportunity to have a greater impact in the world. Live in your joy, calm and peace to have that powerful living experience. We need to identify the things we can control and the things we can’t, and take radical responsibility for our own happiness and mindset. The journey is about knowing yourself at a deeper level and removing the resistance that’s there in the form of thinking so that you can decide to do something new moving forward. Appropriately enough, what each conversation boils down to is that self-authorization and a healthy mindset leave room for impact. If you’re ready to see the lies in the untruth that you've been telling yourself then this is an episode you cannot afford to miss. Tune in now and get ready to take responsibility for your mindset and happiness! KEY TAKEAWAYS [2:11] Background of Shyamala [4:45] Background of David [11:24] Shyamala’s struggles being a new mom [13:19] David’s two states of being: powerful and primal [15:52] Why we need to take radical responsibility for our own mindset [26:30] One of the biggest sources of stress conflict in couples [30:04] The psycho cybernetic loop [35:05] How to change the experiences of your life [41:48] Positioning your business in the marketplace HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUESTS MEMORABLE QUOTES “I have seen time and time again the correlation between our ability to really master our mindset, our ability to communicate assertively or communicate with confidence and how that really feeds into our ability to navigate our relationships well.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru “We are focused on helping as many people in their personal suffering as possible so that we can collectively create the future of the world that we all share.” David Bayer “This next evolution of personal growth, which is defined as utilizing the mind to rewire and reorganize the brain, is the linchpin of the evolution of the entire human species.” David Bayer “When we're in rest and reconnection and recharging, that's when we're connected to inspiration and creativity and flow states and an intelligence that is greater than ourselves.” David Bayer “The only two things we can control are what we think and what we do.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru “When we look at the couple's system, it is actually strongest when each individual is executing at their fullest potential. So when each individual partner is executing in a way where they have a hold of their mindset, where they're really able to be responsive and not reactive, where they're really able to make choices from an informed and self-regulated place, that is when relationships are at their strongest.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru “In my opinion, we can't talk about relationship strategies, whether it's parenting or whether it's around intimacy, unless we talk about the mindset piece.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru “We need to take radical responsibility for our mindset and own happiness because if we don’t do that we can’t be there for our kids, we can’t navigate our relationships and we certainly can’t show up as our professional selves.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru “Your thoughts are an extension of your core beliefs. And then you experience those thoughts as feelings. So your beliefs produce your thoughts, your thoughts you experience as feelings. Those feelings motivate or demotivate action or activity. And the action and activity produce results. And then those results reinforce the core belief. And so this is referred to as a psycho cybernetic loop.” David Bayer “That whole journey is about coming to know thyself at a deeper level and removing any of the resistance that's there in the form of thinking and seeing the lies in the untruth that you've been telling yourself while knowing that you can decide something new moving forward.” David Bayer /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25550727

It's our vitality. It's what keeps us wanting and lusting for life, going forward with desire to create.” Susan Bratton “There's 20 kinds of orgasms a male and a female can have.” Susan Bratton “When you get squished, there's something new to learn about yourself and you actually do expand in that struggle.” Katrina Bos “It's all about the merging of the masculine and feminine, the merging of the right and left brain. That's where magic happens.” Katrina Bos “I actually had to learn that my brain wasn't my greatest asset and it definitely couldn't make important life decisions.” Katrina Bos “The great mathematicians historically were philosophers because they were looking out at the world and looking for patterns, and they were literally trying to map God with numbers.” Katrina Bos “What women need is much more slow, delicate touch and penetration, and we don't need to be rammed like a piston, which is what you see on pornography.” Susan Bratton “And the problem is, in our society, if you get stuck in the rat race of just, it's all about the money, it's all about the work, it's all about the house, it's all about the this - by the time you are 60, you've actually lived the same year 60 times.” Katrina Bos /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25482363

Mastering Your Mindset and Emotions 01/03/2023

Mastering Your Mindset and Emotions Are you tired of feeling held back by negative emotions and limiting beliefs? It's time to take control of your mindset and emotions and live a life you love!This week on IMPACT, we've got just the guests to help you do that! Meghan Walker sits down with the dynamic duo of Dr. Joan Rosenberg and Susan Hobson. Dr. Rosenberg is a world-renowned psychologist, consultant, and media expert who knows a thing or two about achieving a life you love. Her book, 90 Seconds to a Life You Love, is a must-read for anyone looking to improve their mental wellbeing. And Susan Hobson? She's a neuro-linguistic programming coach who works with top executives, athletes, and other high achievers to help them break through their mental barriers. Confidence is crucial when it comes to building a strong foundation of self and getting past imposter syndrome. But true confidence isn't about trying to be perfect or competing with others. It's about knowing your own limits, showing up, and doing the best you can at any age and stage of life. It's about knowing your worth and the value you bring to the table. So how do you build confidence? By cultivating self-awareness, not avoidance. When you're faced with negative emotions, it's important to name them and allow them to pass. Most feelings only last 90 seconds, so don't let them hold you back. And when you lean into your feelings, you can gain valuable insights and use them to make better decisions or take action. But it's not just about managing your emotions. You also need to examine the root of your limiting beliefs and identify where critical self-talk is coming from. By confronting these beliefs and challenging them, you can navigate around them and open yourself up to new possibilities. A change in thinking can have a big impact, and self-awareness and clarity on your values are key to being true to yourself and performing at your best. So don't miss this episode of Impact with Dr. Joan Rosenberg and Susan Hobson – start mastering your mindset and emotions today!

Many of us don't realize that and are at the level of awareness where we still think life is doing something to us.” Dr. Joan Rosenberg “The one choice is choosing into awareness, not avoidance.” Dr. Joan Rosenberg “When thoughts, feelings, words and actions all match, then one feels congruent. That's the foundation of confidence and it is also the foundation of inner peace.” Dr. Joan Rosenberg “When I can be with my vulnerability, that is actually when I'm at my greatest strength.” Dr. Joan Rosenberg “If anybody really peels back the layer on perfection, they’d see that it's a race that they'll never win. What I like to teach my clients is that if you're a perfectionist, that's a goal you’ll never reach.” Susan Hobson “There's not any one of us that enters this world or leaves this world a different way. We all enter it and we all leave it the same way. We're from the same fabric. And when we can adopt that and live from that place, then our whole whole human experience can change. So healing the rupture that we're different and being able to come together is such a crucial part of healing.” Dr. Joan Rosenberg /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25447968

Mastering Midlife Metabolism On this week's episode of IMPACT, host Meghan Walker is joined by two experts in women's health - Dr. Stephanie Estima, a chiropractor and expert in functional neurology, and Dr. Anna Cabeca, a world-renowned, triple-board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist who helps women transition through the various hormonal phases of their lives. Meghan’s guests share their insights on navigating the hormonal changes that occur during perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Estima discusses the role of the ketogenic diet in supporting brain function and reducing inflammation during these stages of life. She notes that the effectiveness of the keto diet can vary for women compared to men, and that it's important to individualize the approach. Dr. Cabeca emphasizes the importance of women taking control of their own health and being proactive in understanding their bodies and how to support their well-being. She advises women to be mindful of their diet, particularly avoiding excess carbohydrates which have been linked to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, stroke, and cancer. Instead, she recommends focusing on whole foods, incorporating plenty of greens, and limiting processed and sugary foods. Dr. Cabeca also advocates for detoxification and intermittent fasting, as well as getting enough sleep and incorporating flexibility into daily routines. In addition to diet and self-care, the importance of checking urine pH as an indicator of overall health and well-being is emphasized, as well as eating small, early dinners before 7 pm to support longevity. Starting each day with gratitude, prayer, or meditation will set a positive foundation for a day of clarity and focus. Overall, Dr. Cabeca and Dr. Estima emphasize the importance of taking a holistic approach to supporting the body's natural desire for homeostasis, balance, and health during perimenopause and menopause. By taking control of our own health and being proactive in understanding and supporting our bodies, we can better navigate these stages of life and maintain optimal well-being.

So I had that fear and that took me into embracing the ketogenic lifestyle.” Dr. Anna Cabeca “As we enter menopause, we become less able to use glucose for fuel in the brain because it's an estrogen dependent process. So switching to ketones at least periodically really powers up our brain.” Dr. Anna Cabeca “We can powerfully use behaviors to control our physiology and empower physiology to improve our behaviors, so they're combined.” Dr. Anna Cabeca “I feel as though there has been no further sophistication in thinking other than if you’re premenopausal we’ll just stick you on the pill and if you’re postmenopausal we’ll put you on hormone replacement therapy and this whole endocrine thing, it's really not that complicated.” Dr. Meghan Walker “I say, don't give me the control over your health. Take control of your own health because you have to discern what's working for you and what's not.” Dr. Anna Cabeca “The resources out there for women are not plentiful. And the conversations by men are not inclusive.” Dr. Meghan Walker “If you can pick it, peel it, fish or hunt it, milk it or grow it, then for the most part you can eat it, you know, staying with real food.” Dr. Anna Cabeca “Getting rid of the shame and guilt that we have as women that we carry because we can't act exactly like men or do the things that men can do I think is really important.” Dr. Stephanie Estima “Oxytocin's a powerful alkalinizer, so that hormone of love, bonding and connection is important.” Dr. Anna Cabeca /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25364340

When Life Gives You Lemons... 12/20/2022

When Life Gives You Lemons... On this week’s episode of IMPACT, host Meghan Walker is joined by two guests -- John Jackson who works for Hustle 2.0, an organization that helps people who are incarcerated in the U.S. through holistic rehabilitation, and Sammy Taggett, entrepreneurial wizard and founder of Evolved Podcasting. Sammy Taggett began his entrepreneurial journey in humble beginnings, starting out as a door-to-door salesperson and even working as a mint-and-napkin guy in a nightclub bathroom. It was in this unlikely setting that he seized the opportunity to become a DJ and learn about inspiring and educating people as an entrepreneur. According to Sammy, one key to success is finding your "zone" and building a supportive team around you. He also stresses the importance of having big dreams, having fun, and seeking out supportive individuals. John Jackson, on the other hand, had a difficult upbringing. His mother was murdered at a young age, and he ended up living with his aunt, a drug dealer. In order to save her from incarceration, John took the rap for her and spent many years in prison as a gang member. After being released, he now helps younger people who have been in prison by teaching them leadership, resilience, and determination, leading them down a path of positivity and purpose. Despite their different backgrounds, both Sammy and John are inspiring examples of how to turn difficult circumstances into a new and better life through self-belief and a focus on the possibilities around them. Don't miss this empowering episode filled with insights and lessons on how to turn challenges into opportunities. Enjoy listening!

That it didn't happen for nothing.” - John Jackson “She (my aunt) watched as I was handcuffed and placed in the back of a cop car at 17 as a kid, and the person who was supposed to protect me, who promised to protect me, watched as I went to jail at 17 years old, and she praised me for it.” - John Jackson “When imposter syndrome hit me the most was when I felt like I had the most to lose.” - Sammy Taggett “The best way that I could describe prison is you just have to kill your feelings and stuff them down and act as if they do not exist. I don't have to tell you that it doesn't work.” - John Jackson “The biggest lesson that I learned from all those folks is they never did it alone. And to have a compelling vision that's so big that it pulls you.” - Sammy Taggett “The dreamers really do compel and pull the future forward, and that's what I love to be around, and I don't know how I got lucky to do that.” - Sammy Taggett “No one will really actually remember what you say. They'll rarely remember what you did, but they'll always remember how you made them feel.” - Sammy Taggett “They just needed somebody to say, hey, I see value in you, I see worth in you, and you can do better, you can do more if you want to. And I'm gonna give you the opportunity to do it." - John Jackson /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25318854

Future Of Health Series: Surprising Health Trends in 2023 On this week’s episode of IMPACT, host Meghan Walker wraps up The Future Of Health series by laying out the upcoming 2023 leading trends in healthcare and wellness from the Global Wellness Institute. One trend will be increasing connections between our own health and the health and diversity of our environment. The second trend is around technological wellness and the effect of blue light from our devices. More conversations about how technology needs to be managed will be necessary as we move closer to optimal states of wellness. We will also see more innovations in independent living and home care for seniors to maintain and prolong their quality of life. Wellness travel will also become more popular, incorporating activities like meditation for deep emotional and physical healing along with adventure travel. A revolution in women’s health will be another big trend, especially with the use of artificial intelligence to make decisions about the specific needs and nature of women. And urban bathhouses and wellness playgrounds will become more popular as community centers, instead of local bars, for example. Another trend will be health coaching, where we can use a health coach to hold us accountable for our health and wellness. And count on the metaverse – the digital world – to transform our healthcare practices through sharing of information and strategies that can be brought back to the real world. IMPACT medicine and the delivery of care and health optimization will be a major trend in developing eco-systems of possibility for clinicians to help people take their health to the next level.

Ambition, Grief and the Holidays - Rewriting How We Overcome and Move Through Loss with Dr. Sherry Walling 12/06/2022

Ambition, Grief and the Holidays - Rewriting How We Overcome and Move Through Loss with Dr. Sherry Walling On this week’s episode of IMPACT, we’re joined by Dr. Sherry Walling, a clinical psychologist, entrepreneur and an expert on handling grief. She is also the author of Touching Two Worlds about the duality of joy and grief. All of us experience pain and grief at some point in our lives because it’s a very normal and important part of human relationships and human emotion. But some of us get stuck in grief and hold trauma in our bodies, especially entrepreneurs and high performers who seldom slow down. Grief is not linear – it may go away for a while and then months later, resurface in a different way. Grief can show itself through anger, anguish, sadness, and stillness. But it can also be fuel, passion and the determination to change something or advocate for a cause. This is all part of the grief process. It’s important to tell stories of loved ones who have passed on to share the reality of grief. The deeper work of grief is internal storytelling so that the role of that person in your life doesn’t get glossed over. The holidays are a great time to acknowledge the joy a loved one brought while honoring their memory with family, children, and friends. This episode is special. It is for everyone. There are things that we are ALL going to experience in our lifetime… and grief is one of them. Grief is complicated but giving space for all that comes with grief is important. What does this involve? Listen to this week’s episode to learn more. KEY TAKEAWAYS [1:32] How Dr. Walling became a grief expert through family loss [6:22] Similarities to losing a loved one and going through the pandemic [6:41] The Great Resignation [10:42] The negative and positive manifestations of grief [15:10] Integrating grief into our lives [18:26] The importance of talking to kids about grief [23:29] Deeper work of storytelling in grief [27:47] The importance of talking with your family about end-of-life wishes HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST [email protected] Books on Amazon: Touching Two Worlds and The Entrepreneurs Guide to Keeping Your Shit Together MEMORABLE QUOTES “Grief is a very normal part of human relationship and human emotion, and one that has all of these sort of riches and depths instead of like an ailment that needs to be treated.” Dr. Sherry Walling “Integrating the body and movement into a course of working through grief is now absolutely central to how I think about what humans need when they're grieving.” Dr. Sherry Walling “The unique thing about helping entrepreneurs or high performers grieve is that we're really good at not grieving. Our lives are really full, so it's very, very difficult for us to give the time and space to grief that it may warrant.” Dr. Sherry Walling “The deeper work of grief is the remembering. It is the storytelling internally so that the role of that person in your life doesn't get sort of glossed over.” Dr. Sherry Walling “I also think this idea of grief as sadness is not super helpful because grief is many, many things. It can be anger, it can be anguish, it can be sadness, it can be stillness, but it can also be fuel, it can also be passion. It can be the determination to change something, fix something, advocate for something that's all part of a grief process. And so I think grief can be fiery as much as it can be blue. And so giving space to all the parts of grief I think is really helpful.” Dr. Sherry Walling /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25142211

Future of Health Series: Quantifying Bioenergetics with Harry Massey 11/29/2022

Future of Health Series: Quantifying Bioenergetics with Harry Massey The Future Of Health series continues on IMPACT with guest Harry Massey, a forward-thinking bioenergetic researcher who owns several companies that build bioenergetic tools to quantify what’s happening in the energetic field. Massey talks with Dr. Meghan Walker about some of the ways energy can be leveraged for healing and prevention to create a higher quality of living in the future. His efforts were born out of severe disability in his twenties after climbing accidents, which built up toxins and autoimmune viruses in his body. After that, he and a colleague mapped out the energy and information of the human body field as an energetic control system, to see how energy works within different tissues and cells. Ideas from physics were also combined with alternative holistic medicine. The body acts on two systems – the chemical system and the communication system, which is instantaneous. 70 trillion cells in the body are operating in their own function every single second. How can this help your health? Information can be directly inputted into your operating system so get different tissues and cells to respond in certain ways to improve their condition. Environment also plays a huge role and Massey believes that 90% of your health outcome is your environment, not genetics. Massey’s company, NES Health, has created a Biogen Wellness System where you can basically scan the energy of your organs through your different meridians and mind-body connection and then recommend pharmaceuticals that will trigger a healing response for injuries and pain. Emotions play a significant role as well – with gratitude, intention, surrender and trust being paramount in your daily practice. The more you’re in those heart-centered states, the more the universe will respond to your intentions. Harry Massey is such a proponent of the future of health and this fascinating conversation provides valuable information about bioenergetics. It offers lots to consider. Take a listen!

What he meant by that is this fundamental information actually governs energy, which in turn is actually creating the physical reality.” - Harry Massey “I see healthcare and health as being one coin and there's two sides. The chemistry side is totally legitimate, but the bio side should be its equal partner.” - Harry Massey “If your use of energy is more efficient, then you end up with a higher level of energy available. You know, what we would call “body battery.” Then you have more energy left over for healing and living longer.” - Harry Massey “The universe will bring in your intentions, but it doesn't necessarily do it in a way that you might see as logical. It might come with a little bit of conflict, but that's really where the surrender and trust comes in.” - Harry Massey /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25089675

Future of Health Series: Quantifying Emotional Intelligence Through Voice with Kristi Holt 11/22/2022

Future of Health Series: Quantifying Emotional Intelligence Through Voice with Kristi Holt The Future of Health series continues on IMPACT as Meghan is joined by Kristi Holt, the CEO and co-founder of Vibeonix, a company that quantifies voices to give us insight into emotional intelligence, using AI and data points. Analyzing your voice frequencies helps to make you aware of where you are emotionally so you can change it in the future. Vibeonix has created a unique algorithm to help users not just understand emotional intelligence but actually improve it and apply it to daily life. It works by measuring resonance, tone and intonation in the voice, as well as the frequency of what is carrying the information. With this knowledge, we can start predicting emotional patterns, therefore predicting different diseases in the body to prevent it from ever happening. This technology is all about being more aware and smarter about ourselves as human beings to bring us back to ourselves. From that space, we can create anything -- we can heal and empower ourselves to embody who we want to be. We can IMPACT. Check out this episode to learn more about this groundbreaking technology and business. KEY TAKEAWAYS [5:28] Who Kristi is and her entrepreneurial history [11:44] Kristi’s decision to have children [15:11] How quantifying emotional intelligence through voice works [20:21] How Vibeonix came up with their patented algorithm [24:06] How the voice is measured for emotional intelligence [28:56] How technology and AI can help us with interconnection in health in the coming decades [34:18] Vibeonix 2.0 as a business-to-business program HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST MEMORABLE QUOTES “When I heard that your voice is literally carrying the resonance of your energy systems inside of you, it was a mind blow for me, and something so profound told me that this was real.” - Kristi Holt “Our goal as a company, and this is what aligns with my values most, is to reflect it back to the users. So users can understand their emotional intelligence, see it, quantify it, and improve it.” - Kristi Holt “We can measure emotional intelligence through resonance in the body and then how the body is projecting that resonance.” - Kristi Holt “Tone and intonation is part of it, but it's so much more than that. We're measuring the frequency, and frequency is what carries information. We are also able to measure how much control you have and how much you're actually expressing emotion.” - Kristi Holt “We can start looking at the body and find correlation to the voice, to the emotion, then we'll be able to start predicting emotional patterns, therefore predicting different diseases in the body.” - Kristi Holt “I think technology's going to help us remember the power within.” - Kristi Holt “Why I love emotional intelligence is it brings you back to you. And then from that space you can create anything. You can heal, you can empower, you embody.” - Kristi Holt “When we ignore, suppress and avoid emotion, we are ignoring, suppressing and avoiding our ability to live. And we're here to live. We're here to experience and all of these emotions are for us to experience. They are not who we are.” - Kristi Holt “People are challenging the system that we've been told is the truth.” - Kristi Holt /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/25000284

The Doctor of the Future is the Patient with Sachin Patel 11/15/2022

The Doctor of the Future is the Patient with Sachin Patel On this week’s episode of IMPACT, Dr. Meghan Walker is joined by Dr. Sachin Patel, an innovative leader in functional medicine, founder of the Living Proof Institute and author of the best-selling book, Perfect Practice. He believes that every patient can become their own doctor to help heal themselves. So many of the poor health conditions and diseases that people face today are preventable, but most people just don’t know the basics of preventive care and good health. With the right tools and capacity for empowerment, patients can have a role in reversing the symptoms of disease themselves. Dr. Patel believes the things that are sabotaging people’s health are not detectable through lab tests. They are things like relationships, the lighting in their home, their lack of connection with nature, not knowing how to breathe intentionally and not getting enough restful sleep. It’s important to recognize the factors that are making you unhealthy so that you can turn them around and find solutions. It all comes down to wearable technology where patients can see how they’re getting better and increase their own self-awareness and positive reinforcement. And doctors can coach their patients better by looking at the data from the technology. Patients love it because now they’re being held accountable, and doctors love it because they have more data points to work with and show the power of what they do. Wearable technology can help in reducing weight and pain, hypertension, diabetes and so much more. It’s also important to learn how to breathe intentionally, realign your circadian rhythms and get restful deep sleep. Taking care of the body in these ways leads to transformational change, not just in your physical journey but also in your mental and emotional journey. Enjoy listening to this episode which leaves you with so much to consider. KEY TAKEAWAYS [4:20] How HRV works [4:49] The importance of deep sleep [8:37] 30 Ways in 30 Days Program [10:40] 3 key pillars to focus on [12:40] How we can love more by taking away pain and scarcity [22:59] How to “do you” and stand in your highest vibration HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST https://www.instagram.com/thesachinpatel/ MEMORABLE QUOTES “The big thing for me is focusing on how to help people become their own practitioner and live a life that unleashes that. And what we realize is that can actually be systemized because as unique and as different as we are, there's some basic foundational things that we all need as human beings.” - Sachin Patel “We don't need more doctors, practitioners, nurses, or even functional medicine practitioners. We need more healthy people. We don't have to wait until they get sick to unlock their potential.” - Sachin Patel “A really important thing for people to understand, even as practitioners for us to understand, is that the things that are sabotaging people's health, there are no supplements or lab tests for.” - Sachin Patel “Now you can wear an aura ring or other devices and you can get amazing information about yourself with such a short feedback loop so you can make decisions in real time.” - Sachin Patel “Many people don't know how to use their breath to override their stress response and get into a parasympathetic state, where we heal, repair, regenerate every cell tissue organ in our body.” - Sachin Patel “You become the purveyor of intergenerational health when you can teach just one person how to make that transition.” - Dr. Meghan Walker “I'm not doctoring you back to health, I'm just teaching you the basics of how your body works, and then you can make informed and educated decisions about if you want to do that or not. You can become a healing machine.” - Sachin Patel “There's no system of healthcare that can save you from yourself.” - Sachin Patel “My job is not trying to save you money. I'm trying to help you live an amazing life so that you can spend your money on the things you want to spend it on.” - Sachin Patel “As practitioners, we need to first and foremost discover who we are so that we can show up in our most powerful way and that's gonna attract the right people and it's gonna repel the wrong people.” - Sachin Patel /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/24928707

Future of Health Series: Frequency Medicine with Jesse Pierce 11/08/2022

Future of Health Series: Frequency Medicine with Jesse Pierce Welcome to another episode from “The Future of Health” series. This series will explore and discuss new ideas on the horizon in the healthcare industry. Energetic medicine is the focus of this week’s episode as Meghan is joined by Dr. Jesse Pierce, a licensed naturopathic doctor who uses frequencies to treat complex chronic illness. Meghan and Jessie discuss how we are bombarded by frequencies daily and how this influences the electromagnetics of our cells in negative and positive ways. A frequency is something you can’t see; it’s basically the rate at which sound or current is produced and registered in the body. We have frequencies running through our bodies constantly. By improving the body’s energetic frequency, we can help our bodies heal from a multitude of problems and calm inflammation. Frequencies are delivered by sound, in water or through current that runs through the body to help it heal. Acupressure is one way to tap into those frequencies. By inserting small needles, the energy in certain meridians can be moved and blockages cleared. Dr. Pierce also uses a tiny box with wires attached that sends out specific microcurrents. This can help shift the brain from trauma or shift the body from inflammation stemming from mold, Lyme disease, autoimmune conditions and more. Such microcurrents can also reset our genetics to improve how well our body can function over time. Frequency medicine is additionally used to treat acute injuries and physical pain. It can aid in anxiety and depression, fatigue, fibromyalgia and even weight loss. The more we feel healthy, aligned and balanced on an energetic level, the better off we all are. Energetic medicine is the new frontier in healing. Listen to this week’s episode to learn why! KEY TAKEAWAYS [3:29] Why quantum energy is difficult to accept for some people [9:21] Different ways to deliver frequencies [14:01] Different conditions that can be treated through frequencies [15:50] An example of using frequency to help someone with psychological trauma [23:19] Things that can lower your frequency or vibration [24:22] Why blue light is hard on our bodies [32:00] Example of a woman who lost weight by listening to a song HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST GUEST OFFERING The Super Happy song - MEMORABLE QUOTES “We can only see 3 - 5% with our vision of everything that exists. So accepting quantum energy and quantum physics as a way to help us heal is really hard to understand for some.” - Dr. Jesse Pierce “You may not be aware of it, but we're actually picking up on frequency at all times, 24/7.” - Dr. Jesse Pierce “You can't just use frequency and expect to get a hundred percent better. You always have to look at the underlying cause of why things got dysregulated in the first place.” - Dr. Jesse Pierce “The vagus nerve really does help play a role in controlling the terrain of the gut.” - Dr. Jesse Pierce “Anxiety, depression, when people are struggling with moods, especially teenagers, I can shift them really quickly using this form of energetic medicine.” - Dr. Jessie Pierce “Einstein himself said, ‘the future of medicine will focus on frequencies’ and we are just starting to tackle that.” - Meghan Walker /episode/index/show/entrepologypodcast/id/24852846
