Ep 108: When We Push Through the Mess with Kristina Coccoluto
Today we are speaking with the Motivational Speaker, Kristina Coccoluto. Kristina is a previvor, born with the BRCA1 mutation, leaving her with an 87% lifetime risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer and a 60% risk of being diagnosed with ovarian cancer. She took her circumstances into her own hands and began her marathon journey as a distraction before having a risk-reducing double mastectomy. Raising funds and awareness for the cancer community for almost a decade, she knew she could serve others on a deeper level, but didn't quite know the direction to take. And last year, as she crossed the Boston finish line, 28 weeks after a complete hysterectomy everything she had endured began to make sense. Kristina is a wife, mom of 3 kiddos, melanoma survivor, and a 3 star Abbot World Major Marathoner and she's not done yet. Kristina is stepping into her purpose by using her voice as a motivational speaker to empower others, advocate for change, and provide hope for those facing their own mortality. In this episode, we dive into: 1) How marathon running became a distraction from all that she was experiencing regarding the double mastectomy and complete hysterectomy. That distraction started her growth, expansion, and learning how far her story could reach others and show them that they too could choose to do the thing that expanded them. 2) Motherhood, choosing yourself first, being the example for your kids, and all the messy steps people don’t always see. In this process of her story reaching places she couldn’t even foresee before she started, her story is reaching people globally, and she is continuing to grow into seeing what is possible with her story.

Ep 107: Fasting Feels Like A Vacation
Sue is Obsessed with feeling the benefits of fasting, and she can’t wait to start another one, following a 12-day road trip through America. She shares when she began exploring this practice years ago, when faced with a sudden health scare. Consuming toxins is inevitable, but knowing how to temporarily reduce the toxic load, and the positive implications this can have within our bodies, is miraculous. “WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO CHANGE OUR PHYSIOLOGY” - Melanie Cowger Article referenced in the episode: Connect with Sue: Connect with Marsha:

Ep 105: We’re Not Robots
In today’s episode, we are talking about how to listen to our bodies, how our bodies speak to us every single day, and how when we don’t listen it will force us to listen and pay attention whether it is convenient or not. In this episode, we dive into: 1) Sue shares a story of how her body had a small setback/flare and it opened up the doors to the podcast today. We open up about shame, our heart, how our body holds onto it, and what it is doing to our bodies, and how we can release it. 2) We dive into the relationship between the fascia (our subconscious mind) and how it responds to stressors and triggers, and how it puts us into this perpetual state of constriction which is blocking flow, ease, and opportunities that are available for us. We create change by consciously being aware and interrupting our subconscious patterns that are on repeat every single day. 3) We have to stop going through life so robotic and unconscious and bring ourselves back to the present moment. Be consciously aware of the patterns that are on repeat. Build a practice and relationship with yourself on a daily basis and see what is working and what is not working. This inventory is feedback which builds a better relationship with ourselves.

Ep 104: Trust The Intelligence Of Life With Kute Blackson
Today we are speaking with the Transformational Speaker and Best-selling Author, Kute Blackson. Kute is a beloved inspirational speaker and transformational teacher. He speaks at countless events he organizes around the world as well as at outside events including A-Fest, YPO (Young Presidents’ Organization), and EO (Entrepreneurs’ Organization). He is a member of the Transformational Leadership Council, a select group of one hundred of the world’s foremost authorities in the personal development industry. Winner of the 2019 Unity New Thought Walden Award, Blackson is widely considered a next generation leader in the field of personal development. His mission is simple: To awaken and inspire people across the planet to access inner freedom, live authentically and fulfill their true life’s purpose. In this episode we dive into: 1) Kute shares his early childhood years, and how he was exposed to such incredible amounts of personal development and growth from a young age. He was in the environment of spirituality, meta-physical studies, meditation and being ordained at the age of 14 by his dad and traveling to the United States to attend a personal development conference as a young teen. He was continuously being exposed to what was possible. 2) He bought the Tony Robbins tapes and listened to them daily at 11, and then a $500 investment in the Jim Rohn’s tapes at 12 and 13. He would spend hours reading a day, and became engrossed in his spiritual growth journey. This experience led him to having strong visualizations of becoming an author and an empowerment speaker from a very young age. 3) Kute shared how he actively practiced seeing his future goals coming to life, speaking to empty chairs, believing he was inspiring a room full of people, and following his calling and gifts. He practiced this while learning the power of surrender and trusting the intelligence of life and what is planned and available for us. We are co-creating with the universe by what we say yes and no to and how we learn to surrender.

Ep 103: I Need To Find A Sweat Lodge
Today we are back! We are so excited to be back podcasting and sharing with you today. We have been on a journey of healing over the last few months. Today we want to talk about stress and how it affects our mind, our productivity and how we can find ways to support ourselves as we navigate life. In this episode we dive into: 1) Sue shares her experience of being in a sweat lodge and how her body felt after that experience. Marsha shares her experience of weekly infrared saunas and how it has supported her stress levels and nervous system. They both encourage you to look for things that can be pulled in quickly that can give your body that kind of impact and restorative experience that is accessible. 2) Look for ways to settle your nervous system supporting recovery and rest, as opposed to doing and adding more, it is finding ways to encourage our bodies to rest, recharge and release the things our bodies are not meant to hold onto. The heat, saunas, infrared saunas and sweat lodges help our bodies to release deep nervous system stress and further promote healing.

Ep 102: The Importance of Brain Health Advocacy
Today we are sharing a tribute to our friend and fellow author, Amber Nicole who we recently lost on March 7th. Through this vulnerable and open conversation we honour Amber and the impact she had on us and on anyone else who had the privilege of knowing her. Amber was one of the authors published in "Every Body Holds A Story" in 2022, and her chapter was titled “I’m Not Still Here By Accident.” Amber was brilliant, incredibly talented and a gift to all of our lives. In this episode we dive into: 1) Our experience in losing a dear friend, the emotions, the importance of our words, speaking in terms of dying by suicide, what this experience has been like to witness, and how we have been processing the loss of Amber and from attending her Celebration of Life. 2) The trauma that our body holds onto, how it continues to stack up and our body works to process, make sense of and avoid our emotions. We explain how the conscious and the subconscious mind works, how the subconscious mind works to protect us from painful memories and experiences. We talk about different modalities that can be used to support ourselves and our bodies as we work to heal from trauma and challenges. 3) Both Sue and Marsha pay their own personal tributes in this episode to Amber and address a difficult topic, which they know and believe that Amber would love for them to not shy away from this conversation. At the end of this episode, Sue shares a song that Amber played and sang for her when Sue’s mom passed away in 2022. This is a song by Snow Patrol called, “Chasing Cars.” Tune in to Amber Nicole's episode on the show: Tune in to Marsha's latest episode on the Own Your Choices Own Your Life Podcast: Join the OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification Join the Every Body Holds a Story Facebook Group Follow us on Instagram:

Ep 101: From Overwhelm To Expansion

Ep 101: From Overwhelm To Expansion
Today we are unpacking and talking about the feelings of overwhelm and how it feels in our body. Sue openly shares her feelings of overwhelm and together they unpack it and reframe it to shift the energy. This is a powerful conversation of in the moment reframing, rewording and working through Sue’s feelings and emotions as her business is growing and expanding. Feelings of overwhelm are focused on the future events that aren’t even here yet. In this episode we dive into: 1) Sue openly shares how her self care game has improved and she’s made her health and fitness a priority. Now as her business grows and she is receiving referrals, sometimes it is the fear of success that is more of the issue than the fear of failure. We reference the book The Big Leap and how we tend to upper limit ourselves as we expand. Marsha also references the book, The Gap and The Gain by Dan Sullivan, and it is a great reference book especially as our business continues to grow. 2) A question to ask yourself is what will happen if you don’t allow your business (or whatever your goal is) to grow and what will happen if you do allow it to grow. What will change if you do and what will change if you don’t go after what you want? For most people it comes down to being clear on what you want success to look like, feel like, what your priorities are, and we dive into the topics of scripting and this certainty that what is for us won’t miss us, it’s our job to take care of ourselves to be the best version of ourselves. 3) Marsha refers to change at the identity level, and how once we determine the identity change, we continue to show up with the person who has those behaviours, habits, thoughts, taking those consistent choices. She also shares the “wouldn’t it be cool” scripting game that is really empowering. We talked about the power of our words and how it shifts the energy to change our words from overwhelm to expansion.

Ep99: Collaboration Over Competition
Today we are sharing our thoughts on collaboration over competition and during this episode we share some real life examples of where collaboration is working and where it isn’t. In this episode we dive into: 1) Practicing collaboration can still allow us to earn what we are worth and it doesn’t block us from creating what we are here to create. Together they share a couple of examples of proof where collaborations are working and when they’re not working. 2) When people sit in an energy of lack and are afraid of collaboration, that is a belief that they are holding onto and it requires changing that belief before they will see the value of collaboration. Marsha refers to Brendon Buchard’s mastermind where he hosted some of the most successful and impactful entrepreneurs in one room to learn from each other. From this experience Mel Robbins shared that the belief that the person doing the same thing as you is your competition is what is blocking you from your next level of success. 3) To state the obvious, both Marsha and Sue are so passionate about collaborative books, as they published their first volume last year, and are currently onboarding authors for volume 2 of Every Body Holds A Story, and Marsha is writing her second solo book this year.

Ep 100: Celebrating 100 Episodes with Audience Q&A
Today we are celebrating 100 episodes of our podcast. We’ve had a ton of fun, interviewed incredible guests, and shared so many stories both personally and from our guests. We are so grateful for all the downloads, shares and messages we’ve received and the support you’ve given us in getting to 100 episodes. We had some questions brought forth for us to share on this special episode, so sit back and have fun listening to our responses. In this episode we dive into: 1) Our podcast currently sits in the top 10% on which is incredible. With over 3 million podcasts launched, only ~280,000 produced episodes over 21 and are still active. This makes being in the top 10% even more special! One of the reasons people quit podcasting so early is because they don’t see the bigger vision outside of themselves. Podcasting is sharing a bigger message and being consistent in that message. 2) Sue and Marsha answer questions including what keeps the fire lit to stay consistent with the podcast and sharing stories; how do we navigate challenging situations, energy and life while trying to run a business and platform; and our biggest ah-ha moments from the last 100 episodes. 3) Both Marsha and Sue are so passionate about collaborative books, as they published their first volume last year, and are currently onboarding authors for volume 2 of Every Body Holds A Story, and Marsha is writing her second solo book this year.

Ep: 97: Long Term Change Comes From Inside with Michael Brovac

Ep: 97: Long Term Change Comes From Inside with Michael Brovac
In this episode I am speaking with Life coach, Entrepreneur and Inspirational Speaker, Michael Brovac. Michael is a certified holistic life coach from Hamilton Ontario Canada. He specializes in helping individuals accomplish and achieve set out goals with the objective of becoming full filled within their own life. He spent 18 years within a hospital and has now taken that knowledge into coaching individuals struggling with similar challenges he once struggled with. In this episode we discuss: 1) Michael’s story, what he experienced from spending years in the hospital, losing his brother to the same disease, and being in the state of planning his suicide to completely changing his life over the last 4 years and now finding his purpose, passion and mission in life. When he hit the point of deciding to do whatever it takes to become the Michael who had the identity of a survivor. 2) As parents we recognize that we are only part of the equation, and we pray that the right people will cross our kids path to help show them what is possible. This is the role that Michael is now becoming for others as he helps others in hospital, by openly speaking about beliefs, identities, and thoughts. 3) Michael shares how his body and health do well when he continues to stay diligent in taking care of it and making it a priority. He doesn’t have a huge margin for error in his life, such as processed foods and sugars, caffeine, alcohol, etc, and his body will crash and he will generate hives. He has to continue to be accountable and has learned how not to be ashamed of this. Long term accountability with his health and ownership for taking care of himself is where it all starts. 4) The power of community and how it completely reshaped his mindset and beliefs to what is possible. He has allowed himself to be completely surrounded by and receive the support that is available for him, and he will continue to pay it forward in his mentoring, coaching and continuing to raise funds and support kids in the hospital through the foundation CAM-O, named after his late brother, Cameron.

Ep96: The One Where We Talk About Hockey
Today we are sharing our first episode of 2023. We chat about health, personal challenges, changes in 2023, and we loop it into recognizing and celebrating our Canadian World Juniors team that recently won the 2023 IIHF World Junior Championships. In this episode we dive into: 1) Health, Marsha’s health and weird things as a redhead and a lifetime of challenges with her health and how her body responds to allergies and infections. We work so hard to feel good, and then when we are sick we say we will feel so grateful when we feel better and then when we do, we forget what it feels like to not feel good. It’s important to appreciate and not take our health for granted. 2) Health goals and priorities as we move into the new year, and the consistency of strength and resistance training especially for women as we continue to age and lose muscle so easily. They also talked about the benefits of an infrared sauna and how speaking your vision to life can make things happen. Speak all your visions to life, and know that most people won’t see it until you keep speaking it into life. 3) As we are in a new year, be willing to turn the page and stop rereading and repeating the same pages over and over again. Put the old book, with your old identity on the shelf and start a new book. Those lessons you learned are already in your body and embedded in your cells, you don’t need to re-read them any longer. 4) The Malcolm Gladwell quote of 10,000 hours and how the world junior hockey players are a great example of the 10,000 hours in order to craft their skills. This is exactly the same rule that applies to all of us in our lives as we continue to pivot and shift and change our identities. Every time we start a new role, a new identity, we still need to accumulate 10,000 hours to fully become our new identity.

Ep 95 - Final Episode For 2022
Today we are sharing our last episode of the year. We are celebrating the growth of a very challenging year that piggybacked on the past 2 years that were full of so many new experiences, identities and pivots in our businesses and personal lives. As we get ready to start 2023, it is important to recognize what we have learned, what we are clear on saying no thank you and yes, more please to, and what we are calling into 2023. In this episode we dive into: 1) Marsha shares some thoughts on her NLP Trainers Certification Experience and the importance of continuing to be a student. We cannot take our clients where we haven't gone ourselves first. We always go first. 2) Sue shares some insight into her experience with scripting and the importance of creating more quiet time or space in 2023 for meditation and receiving the most aligned clients. There’s so many nuggets in this conversation. 3) When it comes to scripting, they both share how scripting and affirmations require first taking inventory for the lessons in 2022 and being grateful for all of the experiences. This also requires speaking out loud the direction you are moving into, not in what you are lacking or missing in your life. It is a very slippery slope with our language to speak into what we don’t want more of or what we don’t have instead of what we are calling into our lives. Use the language in the present tense of “I AM, I have, I do”. Also using the phrase, “wouldn’t it be cool if…” to allow your subconscious mind to show you what you are wanting more of in your life. 4) If writing is in your future in 2023, we invite you to connect with Marsha or Sue on either IG or Facebook to enquire about being a collaborative author in the next editions of Every Body Holds A Story, if you would like to join the writing space, or if you would like to pursue writing your solo book and write alongside them both, then don’t hesitate, reach out to join them in January.

Ep 94 | Expanding With Astrology with Courtney Burns
Today we are speaking with Astrologer, Courtney Burns. Courtney is here on a mission to make the world a better place by helping people align with their true bravely beautiful selves. Courtney has built a brand called Bravely Beautiful Brand, and supports others to live in alignment with their soul and their soul’s mission instead of what they think the world expects of them. In this episode we dive into: 1) Courtney shares her lifelong interest in Astrology that started when she was younger with reading horoscopes and then when the pandemic hit, she dove into something she loved and started her business doing astrological readings for people in their life and in their business. 2) Jupiter is the planet that brings a lot of goodness, abundance and expansion and sometimes expansion can be a lot for us in our physical being and staying grounded in ourselves during expansion can be challenging, and Jupiter was in Pisces in 2010, and is now back in Pisces. 3) Courtney recommended going to and shared how we’ve all been growing through an inner expansion and it will lead to an outward expansion near the end of 2022. She explains how 3 planets were meeting up in 2020, Jupiter, Pluto and Saturn, and this created an unfortunate divide and a lot for humans to go through. Now we are literally in a process of letting go and rebuilding in our own lives and how that affects the collective. We are growing our nervous system to hold this expansion.

Ep 93: Respecting The Nervous System Allows Us To Dream Bigger
Today we are talking about our nervous system: how learning to calm our nervous system can change our state, how we rest and recover, and ultimately how this process can allow us to dream. We still don’t fully understand how our dreams work at the cellular level and it’s absolutely fascinating to think about.In this episode we dive into: 1) Marsha’s combined experience of the NLP Breakthrough Day, the experience with a shaman at a live event, her visceral body reactions and releasing parts of her masucline energy and how hard it’s been for her body that has spent most of her life in the fight or flight experience. 2) Our bodies have to feel safe in our personal space in order to release something, let go, to surrender and when we find ourselves in this space of safety we can release more of what isn’t serving us. The feelings of safety always come from inside of us first, others can contribute to our feelings of safety or feeling unsafe in our bodies. 3) When we can learn to find our calm state more easily, our nervous system is calmer, we are respecting our body, we can rest more soundly and deeply. The wins keep stacking up and we can continue to feel better, which only improves our health, mindset, nutrition and decision making skills. Rest is queen and being able to rest allows us to dream even bigger.

92 | Misalignment Is A Great Teacher
Today we are talking about Marsha’s experience with a Shaman, during a live event, and after a month of massive transformation. We see others through our own lens and we also see ourselves through a different lens than how others see us. We can learn so much about misalignment and let it be our greatest teacher. In this episode we dive into: 1) Marsha experienced a migraine during a trip out west and a speaking event and spent time with a Shaman who supported her to release the trapped emotions. During the process of releasing the trapped emotions she experienced a visceral release of explosive bowels, fevers, major nosebleeds and immense fatigue. 2) There comes a point where we actually purge our old selves, and let these pieces break away from us because we don’t need them any more. After spending most of her life in her masculine energy, because it was a survival technique, now she is learning to trust and embrace other ways of doing life and business which includes trusting the feminine energy more. 3) How our titles define us and we have to listen to our emotions, what our body is saying and how it is speaking to you, and sometimes that is as simple as changing from Coach to Trainer, or whatever feels like defines you at this point in your life.

Ep 90: The Process of Releasing Stuck Emotions
10/26/2022
Ep 90: The Process of Releasing Stuck Emotions
Today we are talking about Marsha’s experience at her Masters of NLP Immersion, the Breakthrough Day Experience and some of her takeaways. The experience of releasing held/stuck emotions and feeling safe to be seen and releasing so much tension. In this episode we dive into: 1) Marsha’s Breakthrough day collapsed years of coaching by getting to the root cause of some of her blocks and experiences as well as clarity on the lessons she learned. She was shocked at the emotions that came through and what the experience uncovered. 2) This experience unlocked a process of comparison, shame, masking and a loop on repeat, and then falling into a default of needing to do more to create change. This was uncovered using TIME Techniques which allows your subconscious mind to go back to its original triggers. The sequence to release the emotions goes in order of anger, sadness, fear, shame, guilt and hurt. 3) Trapped emotions can make it very confusing as to what is our emotions and what belongs to others. This work would be so important for our younger generation to learn, experience and embody.

Ep 89: We Can’t Outrun Internal Problems with Jessica DeMarchis

Ep 89: We Can’t Outrun Internal Problems with Jessica DeMarchis
Today we are speaking with Therapist & Life Coach, Jessica DeMarchis. Jessica is a licensed therapist, certified life and success coach, NLP practitioner, hypnotherapist as well as a registered yoga teacher. She helps high achieving women ditch the anxiety, doubt and stress through her integrative approach that blends her training in Western evidence-based psychotherapy with eastern philosophy. Jessica supports women through 1-on-1 and group coaching as well as her podcast- Un Learn to Level Up. In this episode we dive into: 1) How we tend to follow the call to create or be the support that we wish we would have had when we were younger. We dove into the aspects of intergenerational trauma and how there are multiple ways to heal and how it starts with knowing that we are safe to start the healing process. 2) Self-preservation and healthy boundaries are key when it comes to healing. Build the awareness and the tips and tools to manage your thoughts which influences your emotional state which then influences your behaviours. Your state of being can change with consistent awareness and practices. 3) There is a huge correlation between high achieving women in business and the traumas they have experienced. Our internal state of being becomes the energetic baseline for how we operate every single day. Some have anxious states of being and others have lower energy states of being (feeling numb and not feeling), both are not supporting ourselves in business or in life.

Ep 88: Sharing The Book Launch Process
Today we are talking about the book launch process and sharing some of the lessons that we learned from launching and releasing our first volume of Every Body Holds A Story In this episode we dive into: 1) How important it is to stay in integrity, self-leadership and how you lead yourself in business is important especially when everything is going wrong. When you’re going through challenges and then not pushing that onto others is something that is very important for us. We each have our own priorities of integrity that we must stick to. 2) Another big takeaway in business is to make sure you work with someone who is not the same as you, work with people who balance you out. 3) The process of navigating mistakes or things we wish we could have done differently and this is all part of the process of publishing a book. We are always being challenged to let go of perfectionism as it is an emotion that will continually stop you from pursuing your dreams. It is imperfections that connect us far more than our perfections. Our focus continues to come back to being so proud of these authors and knowing how impactful their stories are for others.

Ep 87: Our Intuitive GPS with Shawne Arceneaux
Today we are speaking with a Board-Certified Nurse Coach / Life Alignment Coach, Shawne Arceneaux. Shawne is a Board-Certified Nurse Coach and a Life Alignment Coach. She helps others in the healing space find fulfillment and purpose in their work, while also guiding them to create the life and practice of their dreams.In this episode we dive into: 1) Shawne shares her story of shifting from nursing to nurse coaching and then life coaching to continue to support others in their growth journey. We spoke about our inner child work, rewiring our past memories, and helping our inner child experience safety to support healing. 2) Shawne shared Brooke Castillo’s coaching model, also called “thought work”. There is a circumstance, it is a fact that is concrete. That circumstance creates a thought and that thought creates a feeling, shame, embarrassment or resentment. That feeling leads to an action that you do or do not take and that produces a result. Thought work is identifying the thought, the feeling, the action and the results. Using these key steps helped Shawne create change in her own personal life. 3) This is how Shawne built a better relationship with herself and this helped her to improve her self-talk over the years. These steps on repeat helped her to increase her awareness to sit with and understand her feelings and to move forward to create massive change in her body and life.

Ep 86: Mastering Our Emotions
Today we are talking about how the bare minimum is enough. We as humans and entrepreneurs are in this perpetual loop of feeling like we never do enough. For a lot of us, our bare minimum, what we are accomplishing in one day is more than enough. We can easily become our own worst enemy by being hard on ourselves. We talk about how we can help ourselves to rest and recover faster, listen to what we need and give ourselves permission to plug in more to what we are feeling as opposed to being in a space of reacting and listening to what we need. In this episode we dive into: 1) Recognizing that some days we can easily put out hours of work and other days we need a full recharge. Especially when we are in times of sprints, we have to look ahead and build in times for rest and recharge. 2) We always underestimate how important and vital our rest and recharge is. The recharge is huge for the body and mind. Marsha shares some subconscious tips and strategies to support herself when life feels like it is spiraling. Standing back and looking at your wins and comparing yourself to yourself. 3) Mastering our emotions is about learning how to manage our reactions to things, our emotions, can save our energy and our nervous system. Learning to disassociate, not pour emotions into things that are not ours to own, can save us from being on the energetic roller coaster. Detachment can save us so much time, resources and energy.

Ep 85: Celebrating Marsha's Solo Pod
Today we are talking about Marsha's solo podcast, Own Your Choices Own Your Life and the massive amounts of growth that it has been experiencing. Podcasting is literally the personal growth journey of a lifetime. In this episode we dive into: 1) Her podcast downloads in the month of August are currently more than all of the downloads in 2020. It’s been unreal to watch the growth and experience it all, and it’s been a journey of almost 5 years. Definitely not overnight growth. 2) The backend work of a podcast, starting it, the work involved and the upcoming entire rebrand moving the podcast to a YouTube channel with Sue’s help. 3) Marsha shares the early stages and story of starting her podcast and how she has continued to follow her gut and instinct even though so many people and mentors thought it wasn’t the right move or that it was too much to write a book and run a podcast. Together they also share how important it is for both Sue and Marsha to have something available to support others with free value and content.

Ep 84: Allow Fear To Fuel You

Ep 84: Allow Fear To Fuel You
Today we are talking about the fear in starting, pivoting and trying new things in their business and life. Both Marsha and Sue worked in an hourly profession before the pandemic, and had a long history in their careers, yet had to work through the fear on a regular basis. Together they ponder on what life would be like if they let fear stop them from taking those first few steps where they might be today as a result? In this episode we dive into: 1) Marsha shared how she had the intuitive idea that she was done with her job as a Kinesiologist before it ended. She loved her clients, but knew physiologically she was mentally done with her job, it took the pandemic to force her into the position to change direction and career. 2) Sue shares how she took leaps, learned about myofascial release, how that piece opened up opportunities in her business when the pandemic hit, and then also how learning to implement the tech piece in her business in 2021, and how that knowledge and experience helps her work through the fear that could stop her from offering an online event. Knowledge and experience are powerful in overcoming fear.. 3) Fear and doubt in the body are the exact same emotions. The more we stay in the fear the more our body releases cortisol and adrenaline and keeps us stuck in the fear, we are actually feeding it. The more we continue to work through the fear, the more we can create proof for ourselves that we are capable of far more than what we give ourselves credit for.

Ep 82: Creative Expansion
Today we are sharing the behind the scenes of each of our businesses, and all the different things both Marsha and Sue offer. They have both pivoted and shifted multiple times over the last 2.5 years and deep down they know that it has all been part of the process. As we all continue to grow businesses and give value in the virtual space, we have learned to share with conviction and continue to share unapologetically. It also requires listening to the signs, burning things down that don’t feel aligned and following the pull toward new opportunities. It is listening for the signs, getting into action when the downloads happen and allowing ourselves to receive all that is available for us. This is the real side of entrepreneurship that we are committed to showing our listeners. In this episode we dive into: 1) Marsha shares her experiences of building her business and all the new offers that are coming in the last half of 2022. She will be opening up an NLP coaching certification program to support coaches, healers, speakers and authors in learning how to heal, own and share their stories. This program is opening up for presale in August and will begin in early 2023. Marsha also shares the download to start writing her second solo book and how she is ready to support 3-4 solo authors in the process. 2) Sue shares how her Work Space Mastermind was created out of a need to support people to get to work and bring their ideas to life. In her Work Space calls are run weekly and the entire focus is to stop thinking and get into action. Sue is also editing multiple podcast shows and supporting new podcasters to bring their idea to a finished product to be released.

Ep 81: Creating White Space with Julie Costa
Today we are speaking with Certified Master Clinical Hypnotherapist + Success Coach, Julie Costa. From paralegal + banking to personal trainer/group fitness instructor to being fired from a 10-year corporate career in business development + sales, Julie is now a Master Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and Success Coach. Blending her background in business strategy with mindset work, Julie now helps entrepreneurs grow their businesses by incorporating hypnosis + subconscious reprogramming. In the beginning stages of starting her first business, Julie was on a constant roller coaster of not feeling good enough, questioning her worth, and doubting whether she could achieve her big business goals. Working on her mindset and incorporating personal development was always important. And incorporating subconscious reprogramming, specifically hypnosis, truly changed everything for her. You see, once you reprogram the limiting beliefs that hold you back, the sky's the limit. Julie is now passionate about sharing these modalities and tools with others!In this episode we dive into: 1) Julie’s experience of being on a roller coaster of doubting herself, questioning her worth, and continuously looking outside of herself to find her worth, validation or trying to build business without going inwards and asking what felt in alignment with herself and her needs. 2) The experience of grief, losing her mom from a young age, and how that grief was buried in her body and in her subconscious mind. The more Julie shared her experiences of learning how to heal and reprogram her subconscious mind, it helped her to heal her past stories and so many other relationships in her life too. 3) The power of subconscious reprogramming, the importance of the conscious and subconscious mind working together, and how this work that she has done on herself in her own life has led to so much growth, expansion, joy and purpose in her own life. Now Julie is opening up her own coaching certification to share these tools with other coaches in their life and business too.
