937 | The Diamonds Were Always Within You
In this episode, Marsha recounts a powerful story known as "The Acres of Diamonds," from Matt Cook's book, Beyond Wanting, which illustrates how individuals frequently overlook the treasures that lie within their own lives while searching desperately for fulfillment elsewhere. The tale follows a farmer in 1800s Africa who, driven by the desire to provide for his family, sells his farm in pursuit of diamonds. After years of fruitless searching and ultimately losing everything, he tragically takes his own life. Ironically, the new owner of the farmer's land discovers that it sits atop one of the richest diamond mines in history, highlighting the notion that what we seek is often right in front of us.

936 | Your Ceiling Is Your Biggest Thought
In this episode, Marsha speaks to the distinction between operating under pressure and embracing a state of internal power. Marsha introduces the concept of the "ceiling" and "floor" in relation to personal beliefs and aspirations. The ceiling represents the highest thoughts one allows themselves to entertain, while the floor symbolizes the deepest beliefs that anchor an individual. She explains that our lives are constructed within the space between these two points, shaped by subconscious programming rather than mere strategy. Marsha discusses the importance of recognizing and challenging limiting beliefs, asserting that individuals do not rise to their goals but rather to the level of their beliefs. She encourages listeners to identify their biggest thoughts and visualize them expansively, while also acknowledging the smaller, limiting beliefs that often hold them back. HIGHLIGHTS 00:01:00 - The Difference Between Pressure and Power 00:02:30 - Understanding Your Ceiling and Floor 00:04:00 - The Role of Subconscious Programming 00:05:30 - Expanding Your Ceiling Through Visualization 00:07:00 - Changing Identity to Achieve Goals 00:08:30 - The Importance of Beliefs and Emotions 00:10:00 - The Magic of Raising Your Floor 00:11:30 - Conclusion and Call to Action Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Unbothered Mind Private Podcast Unbothered Entrepreneur Masterclass (for the Podcast Listeners): Download “You Are Supported” Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in January 2026, in person or virtual) The Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program August Promo Save $333 Tap the “Follow” button never to miss a show, and if you love the show, please feel free to tag me on social media, share it with a friend, or leave me a rating and review.

935 | How Light and Sleep Impact Your Energy with Meredith Oke
In this episode, I am speaking with Meredith Oke. Meredith is the Co-Founder of the Quantum Biology Collective, a Podcast Host, and a Speaker, and she is passionate about bridging the gap between cutting-edge science and everyday well-being. After facing her own health challenges, Meredith discovered the emerging field of quantum biology—the science of how light, water, and circadian rhythms influence human health at the cellular level. Through her work, she helps people move beyond surface-level health fixes and instead address the “light side” of health—how our environment, routines, and habits signal the body to thrive. Her gift lies in translating complex scientific concepts into simple, actionable strategies that help people enhance their sleep, energy, focus, and overall vitality. Meredith’s mission is to empower others to understand their own biology and reclaim agency over their health and life. By adjusting daily choices related to light exposure, technology use, and rhythms, her clients and listeners discover how small, consistent changes can lead to powerful transformations.

934 | If You Spoke Your Thoughts Out Loud
In this episode, Marsha invites listeners into a deeply personal exploration of the power of thoughts and self-talk. She begins by posing a thought-provoking question: if one were to vocalize their inner thoughts, what would others hear? Would it be a stream of empowering affirmations or a verbal dump of self-doubt and criticism? Marsha emphasizes that our internal dialogue is a powerful broadcast that shapes our reality, and she encourages listeners to reflect on the nature of their own thoughts.

933 | How to Shift from 'Away From' to 'Towards' Your Goals
In this episode, Marsha discusses the difference between conscious and subconscious values and highlights the frustration that arises when one's conscious goals clash with subconscious beliefs. Throughout the episode, Marsha explains that while conscious values represent only 5% of our mindset, the remaining 95% is governed by the subconscious. She illustrates how this disconnect can manifest in daily life, where individuals may claim to value freedom or health but find themselves trapped in patterns that contradict those values. Marsha emphasizes that true alignment can only be achieved when both conscious and subconscious values are in harmony. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to Values and Breakthrough Days 00:01:00 - The Disconnect Between Conscious and Subconscious Values 00:02:30 - The Role of the Nervous System in Value Alignment 00:04:00 - Personal Experience with Values Elicitation 00:05:50 - Understanding Identity vs. Values 00:07:30 - The Importance of Ripple Effect as a Value 00:08:30 - Conscious vs. Subconscious Values 00:10:00 - Motivation Direction: Towards vs. Away 00:12:30 - Sustainable Motivation and Moving Forward 00:13:30 - Identifying Subconscious Values 00:15:00 - Reframing Current Values 00:16:30 - Bringing Curiosity to Your Values Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Unbothered Mind Private Podcast Unbothered Resilient Entrepreneur Masterclass: Download “You Are Supported” Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in January 2026, in person or virtual) The Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program August Promo Save $333 Tap the “Follow” button never to miss a show, and if you love the show, please feel free to tag me on social media, share it with a friend, or leave me a rating and review.

931 | Healing Doesn't Have to Be Hard
In this episode, I challenge the notion that healing must be a heavy, burdensome experience. Instead, I advocate for a lighter approach, where we can learn to feel our emotions without being overwhelmed by them. Throughout the episode, I discuss the concept of nervous system regulation and how it plays a crucial role in our healing journey. I explain that healing does not necessitate a complete pause in our lives; rather, it involves training our minds to respond differently to triggers and challenges. By embracing emotions and learning to navigate them, we can create a sense of safety and calm even amidst growth and expansion.

930 | Inspiration Isn’t Enough — Why I’m Here to Activate You
In this episode, Marsha dives into the distinction between inspiration and activation, sharing her personal insights and experiences that have shaped her understanding of these concepts. She begins by expressing her mixed feelings about being labelled "inspiring," revealing that while she appreciates the sentiment, it often feels superficial unless it leads to tangible change in others' lives. She explains how activation reaches beyond the conscious mind, tapping into one's identity and beliefs, ultimately leading to a shift in perspective and behaviour. Marsha passionately advocates for the importance of language in this process, highlighting how words can program activation in the subconscious mind.

929 | Improving Brain Health with BrainTap with Dr. Patrick Porter
In this episode, I am speaking with Neuroscience Expert | Inventor of BrainTap® | Brain Fitness Pioneer, Dr Patrick K. Porter. Dr. Porter has spent his life asking a radical question: What if we could train the brain like a muscle and transform lives without pills, struggle, or guesswork? Introduced to the power of mind training by his father at an early age, Dr. Porter’s lifelong passion has been exploring how visualization, brainwave science, and neuroplasticity can unlock human potential. As a pioneer in brainwave entertainment since the 1980s, Dr. Porter saw possibilities where others saw limitations. He co-developed the first personal brain training device long before "biohacking" became a buzzword, and continues to do so today. He’s the mind behind BrainTap®—a revolutionary platform trusted by over 120,000 users, professional athletes, and 3,000+ health clinics worldwide. His work, backed by 30+ clinical studies and spotlighted across The Wall Street Journal, CNN, and The Joe Rogan Experience, proves that brain fitness isn’t about puzzles or trends—it’s about science, balance, and unlocking the brain’s innate ability to heal, perform, and thrive. Through BrainTap and his upcoming book, Brain Fitness Blueprint, Dr. Porter is leading a global movement to help millions reclaim their mental clarity, emotional resilience, and human potential—one brain at a time.

928 | How NLP Helps You to Embody Resilience As An Entrepreneur
In this episode, Marsha reframes the narrative around resilience, challenging the notion that it is merely a badge of honour or a sign of strength. Instead, she posits that true resilience is about maintaining emotional regulation and resourcefulness in the face of life's inevitable challenges. Throughout the episode, Marsha shares her insights on how to shift perspectives, using a recent example of a client who expressed self-doubt. By flipping the narrative to highlight the client's belief in herself, Marsha illustrates the power of reframing one's story. She emphasizes that resilience is not about relentless grit but about being flexible in thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, allowing for a quicker recovery from setbacks. Marsha introduces the concept of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) as a tool for understanding how our thoughts shape our beliefs and behaviours. She explains that resilience is a state of being that can be cultivated through practice, rather than an inherent trait. By viewing challenges as opportunities for growth, entrepreneurs can develop a more sustainable approach to their journeys. HIGHLIGHTS 00:01:00 - The Concept of Resilience 00:02:00 - Reframing Resilience 00:03:00 - The Role of Belief 00:04:00 - True Resiliency 00:05:00 - NLP and Resilience 00:06:00 - Behavioural Flexibility 00:07:00 - Emotional Flexibility 00:08:00 - Subconscious Mind and Resilience 00:10:00 - Reprogramming Techniques 00:11:00 - Building Resilience Through Feedback 00:12:00 - The Nervous System Connection 00:13:00 - Recognizing Dysregulation 00:14:00 - Safety and Expansion 00:15:00 - Resilience as a Leadership Strategy 00:16:00 - Sustainable Growth 00:17:00 - Navigating Uncertainty 00:18:00 - Conclusion and Invitation to Masterclass Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Unbothered Mind Private Podcast Meet me at the Heart-Wired CEO LIVE Event on November 7th & 8th.

927 | Learning to Recharge and Reprogram Your Mind
In this episode, I am thrilled to share my reflections following the Outspoken Master Practitioner immersion, a transformative six-day experience where we practiced and experienced the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This was my first time leading such an intensive program, and while it came with its challenges, I emerged with invaluable insights about myself and my coaching practice. I also touch on the subconscious mind's inclination to cling to familiar patterns, even if they lead to exhaustion. I highlight the significance of pausing and integrating our experiences rather than falling into the trap of perfectionism and overdoing it. By recognizing these patterns, we can reprogram our thoughts and create a more balanced approach to our work and lives. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction and Reflection on the Outspoken Master Practitioner 00:01:05 - The Dangers of Being "Realistic" 00:02:30 - The Importance of Integration and Rest 00:04:06 - Reprogramming Your Thoughts 00:05:54 - Recognizing Old Patterns and Embracing Change 00:07:21 - The Value of Rest and Reflection 00:08:38 - The Journey of Becoming Unbothered 00:09:56 - Permission to Learn and Grow 00:11:10 - Finding Humour in the Process Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Unbothered Mind Private Podcast Meet me at the Heart-Wired CEO LIVE Event on November 7th & 8th.

She encourages listeners to recognize their body's responses to goal setting and to cultivate a sense of safety that allows for expansion and growth.

924 | Your Body Listens to Every Word You Think and Speak
In this episode, Marsha reflects on her personal health journey, particularly as she marks the five-year anniversary of her back surgery. She begins by discussing the concept that our bodies inherently know and remember our experiences, referencing the book "The Body Keeps the Score." Marsha reflects on the idea that manifesting is not just about dreaming big but also about speaking life into one's health and well-being. She encourages listeners to recognize that their words, thoughts, and actions are interconnected and that they have the power to shape their health outcomes. By sharing her story, Marsha aims to inspire others to advocate for themselves and to focus on the possibilities of their health journeys rather than the limitations.

922 | The Rooms That Changed Me
In this episode, Marsha invites listeners to explore the transformative power of stepping into new "rooms"—whether they be physical events, virtual spaces, or intimate conversations. As she prepares for her upcoming event, The Heartwired CEO, at the picturesque Langdon Hall in Ontario, Marsha reflects on the significance of nervous system regulation and subconscious reprogramming in personal and professional growth. Marsha emphasizes that the journey of self-expansion often requires stepping outside of one's comfort zone, a concept that many coaches advocate. However, she acknowledges the discomfort that can arise from such advice, particularly when individuals feel unprepared or unqualified. She shares her own experiences of entering unfamiliar spaces, often feeling scared and uncertain, yet recognizing that these moments were crucial for her growth. Throughout the episode, Marsha discusses the importance of discernment when choosing which rooms to enter. She reassures listeners that they do not need to feel ready or qualified to leap; instead, the act of stepping into these spaces can lead to profound insights and connections. She recounts her own journey, including pivotal moments at conferences and masterminds that shaped her understanding of what is possible. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:12 - The Power of Getting into the Right Rooms 00:01:06 - Stepping into Uncomfortable Spaces 00:02:09 - The Role of Mentorship in Success 00:03:01 - Free Resources for Growth 00:03:25 - Trusting Your Intuition to Enter New Rooms 00:04:38 - Expanding Your Model of the World 00:05:10 - Personal Development Conferences and Their Impact 00:06:47 - Vulnerability and Connection in New Environments 00:08:02 - The Importance of Asking for Help 00:09:06 - Surrounding Yourself with Supportive People 00:10:30 - Auditing Your Current Rooms and Conversations 00:11:23 - Reframing Challenges as Leadership Lessons 00:12:37 - Normalizing Stepping Outside Your Comfort Zone 00:14:02 - The Work We Do in Coaching Containers 00:15:05 - Collapsing Time Through the Right Rooms Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Meet me at the Heart-Wired CEO LIVE Event on November 7th & 8th.

921 | What Happened vs. What Is Happening
In this episode, Marsha shares the perspective of what happened vs what is happening. Marsha emphasizes the importance of language and how it shapes our internal narratives. She explains that when we speak about past events with heightened emotion, we risk allowing those experiences to continue affecting us in the present. By recognizing that the past is not currently happening, she encourages listeners to shift their language from a past-focused perspective to one that is present and future-oriented. This shift is crucial for personal growth and emotional well-being.

919 | Unbothered – Building Resilience As An Entrepreneur
In this episode, Marsha discusses the concept of Unbothered and its importance in building resilience as an entrepreneur, where you will inevitably face rejection, setbacks, and criticism. It's essential to recognize that these challenges are part of the journey. Instead of allowing our armour to block us from feeling and experiencing life, we should focus on building a supportive armour that empowers us. This includes utilizing tools such as hypnosis, meditation, journaling, and exercise to create a strong foundation for resilience. Being unbothered does not mean being indifferent or numb; instead, it means holding your vision and emotions without attaching negative stories to them. I encourage listeners to reflect on the armour they wear daily and to consider how they can shift from a heavy, blocking armour to a light, supportive one. This transformation is vital for amplifying your voice and message as an entrepreneur. HIGHLIGHTS 00:01:00 - The Consequences of Armour 00:02:00 - Entrepreneurship and Rejection 00:03:00 - Building Supportive Armour 00:04:00 - Resilience and Emotional Awareness 00:05:00 - The Power of Sharing Your Voice 00:06:00 - Identifying Your Armour 00:07:00 - Building Your Toolbox 00:08:00 - Recognizing Signs of Imbalance 00:09:00 - The Importance of Self-Care 00:10:00 - New vs. Old Armour Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Meet me at the Heart-Wired CEO LIVE Event on November 7th & 8th.

918 | I Won’t Stay Quiet About This Anymore
In this episode, Marsha poses a critical question to her audience: "What are you waiting for?" She encourages listeners to confront their fears and hesitations about pursuing their passions, whether it be starting a business, writing a book, or sharing their stories. Marsha also addresses the fear of judgment that often accompanies vulnerability, sharing a story about a listener who felt discouraged after receiving negative feedback on a post that was vulnerable. She reassures her audience that if something feels good to them, they should continue to share it, as it will resonate with those who need to hear it. This message is being shared after the loss of a friend and client, Nicole Thorne, who published her book before she lost her battle to cancer at the young age of 53. for a link to Nicole’s Bestselling Book on Pelvic Floor Secrets HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction and Gratitude 00:01:15 - The Impact of Messages 00:02:50 - A Year of Loss 00:03:43 - What Are You Waiting For? 00:04:36 - Authenticity Over Perfection 00:05:49 - The Cringe Factor 00:06:55 - Inspiration from Nicole 00:08:11 - The Importance of Impact 00:09:27 - Final Thoughts and Call to Action Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Meet me at the Heart-Wired CEO LIVE Event on November 7th & 8th.

916 | What Armour Do You Choose to Wear?
In this episode, I am sharing the concept of "armour" and how it impacts our lives, drawing inspiration from a powerful quote by Brené Brown. I reflect on my personal journey of wearing this metaphorical armour, which I initially believed was a protective shield against judgment, criticism, and the opinions of others. This armour, while it served a purpose for a time, became a suffocating prison. I learned that dropping the armour allowed me to embrace vulnerability, find my voice, and heal. I emphasize the importance of recognizing that our motivation can either stem from avoiding pain or moving towards pleasure. Many of us are great at articulating what we don’t want, but struggle to define what we truly desire. I share the difference between defensive armour, which is fear-based and limiting, and "unbothered armour," which supports our boundaries and personal growth. This unbothered armour is about using daily practices and resources to maintain a balanced and regulated nervous system, allowing us to stand tall in the face of criticism and challenges. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Choosing Your Armour 00:02:10 - The Weight of Armour 00:04:28 - Motivation: Avoiding Pain vs. Seeking Pleasure 00:07:50 - Reframing Armour 00:09:37 - Building Unbothered Armour Thank you, Jamie Fitzpatrick, for sparking this concept Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Meet me at the Heart-Wired CEO LIVE Event on November 7th & 8th.

915 | Your Energy Speaks Louder Than Your Strategy
In this episode, I share how your energy speaks far louder than your strategy. I emphasize that no matter how well-prepared we are with scripts or strategies, if our energy is off, whether it's anxious, ungrounded, or frustrated, our message will fall flat. I encourage listeners to prioritize their own energy and well-being before attempting to lead or connect with others. If we are running on empty, we cannot effectively serve or inspire those around us. Throughout the episode, I share personal anecdotes and insights about how our nervous systems constantly scan for safety and congruence in our environments. I highlight the importance of being regulated and grounded, as this energy is magnetic and attracts the right opportunities and people. I explain that clients and audiences can subconsciously sense our energy, often responding more to how we make them feel than to the actual words we say.

914 | The Journey to Coming Home with Carly Ottaway
In this episode, I am speaking with Carly Ottaway. Carly is the author of COMING HOME, creator of The Mirror Effect, and founder of the award-winning boutique marketing agency Web of Words. She’s currently celebrating 10 years in business and the release of her debut book. Through her work and writing, Carly leads by going first; she shows up in vulnerability and truth to give others permission to do the same. Carly believes that when we share our stories and step into our favourite versions of self, we unlock a ripple effect of courage, connection, and possibility that can’t be stopped. After losing her home in a fire in the midst of the pandemic, while leading a multi-six-figure business and raising two young kids, Carly learned firsthand what it takes to do the hard inner work and turn the breakdown into the becoming. Now, she helps others see the truth of who they really are and believe in what’s possible when they come home to themselves.

913 | The Subconscious Cost of Being Bothered
In this episode, I share the subconscious cost of being bothered, emphasizing how replaying past conversations and experiences can drain our energy and hinder our ability to focus on future goals. Our subconscious mind does not differentiate between past and present; it reacts to our thoughts as if they are current realities. This can lead to a cycle of negativity that keeps us stuck in the past, preventing us from moving forward. Throughout the episode, I encourage listeners to recognize the high price of being bothered—both in terms of mental bandwidth and emotional energy. I provide an example of this, comparing it to an overdraft in a bank account, where we continually pay for experiences that no longer serve us. Instead, I advocate for a shift in perspective: rather than replaying what went wrong, we should focus on what we can learn from those experiences and how we can grow.

912 | Your Ceiling is Your Biggest Thought
In this episode, I am sharing a concept I heard Ed Mylett say on a podcast that sparked the idea I want to explore today: "Your ceiling is your biggest thought." I begin by expressing gratitude for a recent review from a listener named Wendy, who shared how my podcast has helped her shift her mindset and overcome limiting beliefs. This ties perfectly into the theme of today’s episode, where I delve into the concept of our mental ceilings—those self-imposed limits that dictate what we believe is possible for ourselves. I challenge you to consider the biggest thought you've ever allowed yourself to hold. This thought represents your ceiling, and it shapes your reality. For many years, I found myself stuck in a cycle of earning the same income, unaware that I could break free from that limitation. Our thoughts create our ceilings, and if we want to achieve more, we must learn to think bigger.

910 | How to Break Free From the Fear of Judgment of Others
In this episode, I am sharing five judgments, particularly in the context of building a business rooted in authenticity. As entrepreneurs, we are bound to face judgment when we put ourselves and our messages out into the world. I emphasize that while we cannot control how others perceive us, we can choose how we respond to their opinions. These are common judgments that many of my clients and I have encountered on our journeys, and I share reframes to help you see these judgments differently. The opinions, criticisms and judgments are a sign that your message is being heard, seen, and you’re visible. That is how your ideal clients will find you.

909 | Why Being Delusional Might Be Your Best Strategy

909 | Why Being Delusional Might Be Your Best Strategy
In this episode, I discuss a question: What if being delusional is your best strategy? I explore the idea that to be an entrepreneur, you often need to hold beliefs that may not align with current reality. This "delusional" mindset allows you to envision possibilities that others may not see, which is crucial when you're building a business, writing a book, or creating something new. Throughout the episode, I emphasize that not everyone is meant to understand your vision, and that's perfectly okay. I encourage listeners to gather evidence of their past successes and to shift their definitions of what it means to be delusional. By doing so, they can reframe their mindset and embrace the bigness of their visions.
