Have you ever wondered why you keep repeating the same patterns, even when you know better?

Maybe you struggle to speak up for yourself, set boundaries, stop people-pleasing, or finally go after what you want. You know what to do. You've read the books. You've listened to the podcasts. Yet somehow, nothing really changes.

According to belief expert Shelly Lefkoe, the problem isn't a lack of willpower. It's the beliefs you've been carrying since childhood.

In this eye-opening conversation, Shelly explains how the meanings we assign to childhood experiences become beliefs about ourselves, and how those beliefs quietly shape our relationships, careers, parenting, confidence, and happiness for decades.

We discuss why evidence rarely changes deeply held beliefs, the five limiting beliefs most people carry, and why so many of us spend our lives trying to prove we're good enough, lovable enough, or worthy enough.

Shelly also shares powerful insights into parenting, including how well-meaning parents unintentionally create limiting beliefs in their children and how we can do things differently.

If you've ever felt stuck, self-critical, or trapped in patterns that don't make sense, this episode may completely change the way you see yourself and what's possible for your future.

We are hearing good stories and getting important lessons with Molly Patrick of Clean Food Dirty Girl. From her parents' incredible meet-cute to living in a teepee without running water or electricity as a child to her quitting smoking and drinking, she lays it out. 

Molly is big into allowing and letting. She had to be to give up her two bottles of wine a day and smoking a pack a day habits. She embraced the suck, as she says. 

She now has a thriving business where she helps people change their health by eating a whole-food, plant-based diet through meal plans and groups. 

Listen as she shares her big life lessons.
