Breaking Chains

How we navigate GROWTH PAINS and seasons of CHANGE as a couple

In today’s episode, we are talking about NAVIGATING the resistance that comes up inside our relationships, especially as we are moving into NEW and uncharted territories together.

This can look like many things.

• Launching into New Careers
• Moving to New Environments + Home Bases
• New Adventures Calling us
• New Visions over our Life's Work

 Maybe ALL are happening at the same time!

It’s IN these moments of transition, that SO many things come up for us as we are being STRETCHED as individuals, as a couple.

Before we know it, we might be experiencing:

• Frustrating Communication (or lack of it)
• More Misunderstandings than we are used to
• Doubts + Fears + Insecurities popping up
• A Lack of Clarity on where we are and where we are going
• Impatience + Irritations + Judgment

We may be wondering WHAT on earth is going on here?!

In today's episode I share our own personal call to adventure right now, where God is leading Mark and I in this season AND the “Stuff” that has been coming up in the process!

Yes, I am human and yes I absolutely get impatient, tired, cranky, overwhelmed and exhausted at times. 

The UNKNOWN is not always fun and does not feel good most of the time:) and yet it’s WHAT I am created for! I THRIVE in these spaces and new levels of depth = new levels of RICHNESS in our life.

Today we UNPACK

• The great UNKNOWN - Call to Adventure
• What comes to the surface when the plates are SHIFTING and things are re-aligning in our lives
• What is ALL this tension about anyway?
• What NEEDS are we seeking to get met?
• How I addressed my frustrations, found my center and got back into integrity + FLOW
• Stretching into the NEXT Level of Trust

A LIFE worth LIVING is measured by all the things you can't possibly MEASURE, and yet MOST people  are tirelessly measuring every single aspect of their lives! 

The world systems have trained us to measure everything 10 ways til Sunday.

I remember a time when I followed the destructive/contractive programming and measured most things in my life....  because I "Thought" and was taught - that's what high achievers do. 

“Successful people measure everything” - High Achievers set goals and go after what they want.

This was the STANDARD I grew up by and ran every aspect of my life by.

Remembering this just makes me want to purge right here on the spot. 

Looking back -  I was living a completely different life, in a totally different world, with totally different rules of engagement than I ‘play’ today.

In today’s episode, I am joined by my clients, Jordan + Eric for a client interview and real-life example of two people who are committed to doing the WORK to create the relationship they desire after two really tough marriages.

They entered their second marriage with high hopes that the past was behind and things were going to be smooth sailing! But soon enough they began to realize that those same issues and painful triggers from the past were showing up again and again, themselves in a different outfit.

Frustrated,  and at a complete loss on WHAT to do - they reached out and committed to this JOURNEY together. They soon began to realize there was a GAP in what they THOUGHT they needed from each other  vs what was actually required from both of them to CREATE the new.

As always, it starts with US - not the other person.

The beautiful thing about these two is that they DECIDED together to truly become co-creators of the NEW together - and that meant a dying of the old ways and familiar patterns of fighting, communicating …setting new boundaries and redefining what ‘caring’ meant.

Today we talk about - 

• How to get our RELATIONSHIPS right and bring oxygen to our relationships
• The UNRESOLVED Issues that kept creeping in to their SECOND marriage from
• People Pleasing, Control Issues, Disappointment +Giving our Power Away to
• Taking ownership of your own patterns moving forward
• How they are navigating raising young adult boys in the blended family
• The importance of Bringing GOD into their marriage 
• Creating a healthy, adventurous and freeing relationship together

Many of us can relate to a relationship past filled with heartache, betrayal, constant fighting, or simply an emptiness from lack of intimacy and connection. 

If you are in a space where you want to REBUILD a relationship that is BETTER than BEFORE - this podcast is for you. 

Whether you actually went through a divorce, or you are in a second season of your current marriage…

You can ALWAYS shift gears, lovingly let go of the past - and begin to create what you desire… Together.

Today I invite you into a radical perspective shift and conscious UPGRADE as we embrace a DIFFERENT way of Looking at others and situations!

We explore some of my favorite messages from Marcus Aurelius, Viktor Fankl and of course, the teachings of Jesus.

• WHO and WHAT are we COMPARING anyway?
• What is the SOURCE of our pain here?
• Will we choose COMPARISON or CONTRAST?
• Celebrating the BEAUTY in all things
• Finding ACCEPTANCE in hard moments

“Everything can be taken from man but one thing: the last of human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

-Legendary psychiatrist and Holocaust-survivor Viktor Frankl

Today's episode is part 2 on overcoming the "saviour" complex and moving into a place of truly EMPOWERED connection with others.

Creating the SPACE for others to DISCOVER their own strength, courage, wisdom + processes.

 It is so ENERGIZING to be IN an intimate relationship with someone who has inner confidence, takes personal ownership over their own actions and BRINGS their own ideas/vision/solutions and unique GENIUS to the relationship. 

AND .... This is a conversation transcends just our 'love' lives. 

It is practical and applicable to how we parent our kids, especially those 'young adults' stepping into their OWN ways. With our adult 'children', when to get involved, and when to LET THEM Be. Too many adults out there are still over-parenting and bailing their adult children out 20, 30, 40 years later! 

It filters into how we lead our teams at work - FREEING ourselves up to gain back more time to work on what matters most! Can you imagine running an organization that has a LIFE of it's own, and the people in it are all collective contributing to multiply it.... rather than just 'taking orders' from higher ups?

Today I continue the convo from last week and leave you with practical ways to move ON!

• WHAT are we getting from playing these games?
• WHAT Actually happens when we step in for others? 
• How we keep recreating the problem and drama we complain about... 
• HOW and WHERE do we BEGIN in giving others their POWER Back.
• EQUALS in value vs "superiority" over one another.

This is one episode you want to tune into!

Here's an operating system I have been living by and it's producing WONDERS.

"Speak the truth from your HEART, people respect authenticity and seek others who will hold a mirror for them. ACCEPT others where they are & POUR LOVE into them as they figure it out. Give them SPACE to breathe, rather than suffocate them - and invite them to RISE to the occasion."

Today we are talking about taking radical personal response-ability FOR our relationships.

POWER COUPLES know they are there to BRING all of who they are to the relationship. 

We are here to BRING the BEST that we have to each other and into this energetic exchange we call ‘relationship’.

If you want to be a POWERFUL lover + leader with plenty of bandwidth for all the things that truly matter, the answer is a resounding YES.

We are RESPONSE-ABLE TO each other, not FOR each other.

In this episode I unpack:

• What IS a savior complex?
• Designed to be a HERO
• 7 Signs you Might Be Playing the Savior
• Nothing kills passion faster than THIS!
• WHY on earth are we doing this to each other?
• When our innate needs are being met in dysfunctional ways

Welcome to part 1 of a 2 part series on overcoming the SAVIOR complex and stepping into an EMPOWERED Union!

This is one episode you want to tune into!

In today’s episode, I  debunk some popular philosophies out there, including all this “SELF” love BS that’s got so many people, especially women - chronically dissatisfied and disappointed when it comes to their ‘love’ lives.

We ALL Desire a safe, supportive relationship - one where we are SEEN, HEARD and that feels GOOD to be IN.

And yet - SO so many couples I work with are STUCK looping through this level of consciousness and playing this familiar pattern out that is so PAINFUL to watch and be a part of.

They feel unheard, unseen, unwanted and... you guessed it - It's the "OTHER PERSON's" fault!

It's the Victim/Aggressor Game and when you are in this pattern it just SUCKS the life right out of YOU, your relationship and your MISSION.

It's a REAL thing and it's way more prevalent than we like to admit or acknowledge.

In today's episode I unpack some of the core issues that keep us in this pattern & how to move BEYOND the level of consciousness that keeps creating 'problems', feeling out of control and triggered 24/7.

This is THE FOUNDATIONAL tipping point to take you FROM a relationship that is just FRUSTRATING to one that is LIFE GIVING to be in!

We dive into:

• How to tell if you're in a VICTIM/Aggressor Loop
• What happens When we are PITTED against each other
• What LEVEL of Consciousness are you bringing to your relationship?
• What does it look like when you are IN an ALIGNED relationship
• PLUS - taking the RIGHT towards creating that which we desire - rather than repeating MORE of what we don't!

It's a new year and with it comes the optimal time to redefine, refine and upgrade our vision, standards and operating systems for the coming year.

Today I am diving into the Business side of things. For high performing leaders, this is a time of relentless focus on what the BUSINESS is going to do + how it will perform - so I thought I would invite you and challenge you into a different type of conversation around business, your mission - the core operating systems and standards you set for this year.

I invite you and challenge you to join me in today’s discussion as I look at DITCHING all the old programming for a fresh -  updated perspective and blueprint: God-Centered, Heart Driven and in FULL Integrity.

I share...

• A Word of the Year - why it matters
• My Personal Vision for 2022
• Completely NEW ways of Operating and DOING “Business”  in 2022 and beyond
• Out with ALL the old traditional marketing, sales, staff, competitive, production based systems and becoming Implementors of the NEW systems
• What I see coming through collectively for Men and Women who are stepping up, RISING & Leading differently in this new era 

As always I share from my heart, based on personal life experience and that from working with and witnessing my clients journeys as they transform and upgrade their realities.
