In this episode, I dive deep into the significance of our thoughts and how they shape our reality. I emphasize the importance of owning our thoughts and stories, explaining that they will own us if we don’t take control. I discuss the concept that we cannot outthink how our bodies feel, highlighting the disconnect many experiences between our conscious thoughts and subconscious emotions. I encourage listeners to recognize when fear or anxiety arises and to understand that these feelings are often rooted in past experiences and trapped emotions.

Throughout the episode, I stress the necessity of tuning into our bodies to release these stuck emotions, which can hinder our ability to create change and connect with others. I share insights on maintaining a regulated nervous system, which is crucial for holding space for ourselves and others on stage or in everyday conversations.

I also touch on my experiences as a speaker, illustrating how being in tune with my emotions allowed me to connect more authentically with my audience. I encourage listeners to find their own "stage" in daily interactions and to practice being present and empathetic in their conversations.

Finally, I share a resource for listeners—a free audio subliminal and hypnosis guide designed to help connect with their higher selves below in the show notes.
