220. Expanding Your Capacity for More (Success, Love & Abundance)


Listen Later

Have you ever noticed that right after something amazing happens — a big win at work, a loving moment with your partner, or a financial breakthrough — you suddenly feel anxious, start overthinking, or even pick a fight?

That’s not random. It’s your upper limit.


In this episode, we dive into the hidden ways we cap our own joy, success, and abundance — and how to expand your nervous system, mindset, and identity so you can receive more without sabotaging it.


You’ll learn:

  • Why we only allow ourselves a limited “thermostat setting” for love, success, and happiness
  • How cultural conditioning keeps us playing small and afraid of shining too bright
  • The sneaky ways self-sabotage shows up when things are going well
  • How to spot your own upper limit behaviours with compassion
  • Practical tools to expand your capacity: savouring micro-moments of joy, somatic anchoring, celebration rituals, and visualization practices
  • Why reminding your nervous system that “it’s safe to feel good” changes everything

This isn’t about pushing harder or doing more — it’s about rewiring your system so you can hold more of what you deeply desire with ease.


By the end of this episode, you’ll see that your ability to experience more love, success, and abundance isn’t limited by what’s possible — it’s limited by what feels familiar. And once you expand your capacity, your entire life expands with you.
