35. The One About Getting In The Right Rooms


Listen Later

In this short but powerful episode, Victoria shares reflections after spending time in highly motivated, growth-focused environments during a recent content and planning trip. Inspired by the energy, ideas, and perspectives she experienced, she explores why who we surround ourselves with plays a significant role in shaping our beliefs, confidence, and future possibilities.

This episode dives into how our subconscious mind absorbs the “normal” around us — from childhood beliefs about success and money to the expectations created by our everyday environments - and why intentionally placing ourselves in new spaces can help expand what we believe is possible.

If you’ve ever felt limited by old stories, unsure about stepping into bigger goals, or hesitant to pursue something that feels “beyond you,” this episode is your reminder that growth often begins by simply changing the rooms you step into.

Key Takeaway

The limits we experience are often learned - not real.
When you intentionally place yourself in environments that reflect where you want to go, your mind begins to accept new possibilities as achievable and normal.

Sometimes growth isn’t about becoming someone new - it’s about allowing yourself to expand beyond the box you were taught to stay in.

Reflection Questions
  • Where might you be limiting yourself based on what feels “normal”?
  • Who inspires you - and how can you spend more time in those spaces or communities?
  • Which environments leave you feeling energised, motivated, and expansive?
  • What is one room (literal or metaphorical) you could step into next?
