Can't Be Contained

This episode with Lisa Kaplin is all about getting over the fear of voicing our truth and creating a clear channel of communication. You know something I see constantly with my clients is the fear of speaking up because we're afraid of rejection and something I always say to them is it's not rejection, it's re-direction. As children we were taught to be quiet, fit in, just accept what's given to us and follow the rules because that's the respectful thing to do. So as evolved women when we want to speak out, wr second guess ourselves and think, "What if they don't like me?", "What if I'm not loved?", "What if I'm rejected?" Lisa does a great job explaining how to get out of this mindset so we can feel worthy and deserving and truly just ask for and get what we want.

About Lisa

Lisa Kaplin is a psychologist and professional certified coach who works with women on building their confidence in all areas of their lives. She believes the least important aspect of a woman is her appearance so she's dedicated to helping women find meaning and joy in other ways. Lisa is a recovered good girl and perfectionist and her life is so much better because of it.

In this episode, Lisa shares:

1. How to get clear on your needs.
2. Asking for what you want from a position of power.
3. Understanding your love language and expressing what makes you feel appreciated (link below)
4. What happens when we have expectations that aren't communicated.

What You'll Hear:

2:02- What it costs us when our needs aren't communicated.

7:40- The small steps we can take to ask for what we want.

19:00- The difference between being assertive and discerning vs aggressive.

I loved this episode. One thing we talked about with our group programs and with all of our clients is life is constantly happening for us in perfect timing. When we can step out of that victim mentality of "Life is happening to me" and and "Life is happening for me" it shifts our emotionality and we're able to see and experience more miracles and so we talked a lot about this. Jessica opens up about her condition, endometriosis and how it's given her awareness of her body. By going plant based, she has managed and eliminated many of her symptoms. We talk about the impact of food and our bodies from an internal approach, how it affects our menstrual cycles and Jessica takes us through a body scan practice to check in which was super cool.

About Jessica

Jessica Murnane is the creator of the One Part Plant movement (she's working to get everyone on this planet to eat one plant-based meal each day), host of the One Part Podcast, and wellness advocate (she works to raise awareness for endometriosis). Jessica has contributed to and appeared in countless magazines and websites, including Mind Body Green, Goop, The Coveteur, Food 52, PopSugar, and Chalkboard Magazine and has spoken at Apple, Taste Talks, and Wanderlust.

Inside this episode, Jessica shares

1. How Jessica created a cookbook from experimenting with food.
2. Living with endometriosis and managing the symptoms.
3. How we can check in with our body and use our pain as a teacher.

What you'll hear:

• 8:00-How food affects our menstrual cycles.
• 21:00- What Endometriosis has taught Jessica about her body.
• 26:08- Living with body dysmorphia and being open to how our bodies change.

This episode with the lovely Rebecca Niziol is all about recognizing our flow states. Flow is something that's naturally accessible in our bodies and it feels different for everyone. For Rebecca, it's the feeling of ease. For me, it's losing track of time because I'm doing something I'm so immersed in and I totally love. We're this steady stream of love but as we go through life, we get blocked from the pain, trauma and forced actions we experience. Rebecca explains how we can acknowledge our blocks so we can heal, remove them and get back into our natural state, which is of course flow.

About Rebecca

Rebecca Niziol is the Creator of Work with Soul, an ever-expanding community of support that connects who we are and what we do in soulful ways, as well as the host of The Work with Soul Podcast. She is a movement specialist who brings spiritual tools and practices in down to earth ways. She has taught yoga to the men's national soccer team, guided a group of over two thousand people in meditation.

Inside this episode, Rebecca shares

1. Why we're afraid to face our pain and how we can view it in a different way.
2. Why we continually create the loop of feeling stuck and how we can break out of it.
3. How to release the blocks that build up in our natural state of flow.

What you'll hear:

• 3:49- Viewing pain as a portal to the divine.
• 10:00- How to detach from the feeling of being stuck.
• 14:47- The difference between forced action and inspired action.
• 19:29- Getting over the fear of doing something new and trusting the process.
• 25:49- How we can take inspired action to connect to our natural flow state.

In this episode with Katie Dalebout we talk about expressing our true selves through journaling. I freaking love journaling and for those of you who are not journalers, journaling is a beautiful way to release the emotionality that's trapped in our bodies so we can really decipher the difference between what is true and what is not true. So whether we have an idea, need to process an emotion or we just literally need to dump our thoughts down, we can do it in a sacred space without any fear of judgment. Katie really speaks to this and shares how journaling has helped her connect to her higher self.

She's the author of the Amazon best-selling book Let It Out: A Journey Through Journaling and has contributed to Hello Giggles, Refinery29, and Mind Body Green. Through her speaking and writing she aims to help people develop a positive image of their bodies by embracing their creativity & personality outside of their physicality.

Inside this episode, Katie shares

1. How journaling allows us to be the observer of our thoughts.
2. Creating more of what we want by having gratitude around what we have.
3. Releasing the fear of uncertainty and saying yes to opportunities.

What you'll hear:

• 2:23- How journaling inspired Katie to connect to her truth.
• 7:37- How we can remove our masks and show our true selves.
• 13:40- The reason why we compare ourselves to other people.

You know, showing up, being vulnerable, talking about our emotions and processing them in real time. It's a beautiful dance.

Today Robyn and I talk about energetic frequencies, vibrations and flow. I am so into this conversation about vibe and food. It is something that I am personally really digging into in my own life and I using in my own work as well. But what I love about this episode is how Robyn brings quantum physics to the conversation, so it's like combining woo woo stuff with actual science proving we and everything around us is just energy. All day long we're either giving or receiving energy. The more energy we have, the higher we vibrate and more of what we LOVE becomes available to us. Robyn goes more in depth in her new book Vibe and has given our listeners some great freebies. Make sure to listen in for the links or check the show notes.

About Robyn

Her latest book, Vibe: Unlock the Energetic Frequencies of Limitless Health, Love & Success, will be released by Simon & Schuster in October 2017. She is a former psychotherapist, university professor, and lectured in 450 cities in the 6 years. She believes that everything is possible if you leverage the highest frequencies in the Universe.

In this episode, Robyn shares:

1. How alignment makes our decisions easy. 2. Using food to increase our frequency instead of targeting our weight. 3. How our emotions affect our vibrations.

What you'll hear:

10:46- How we can allow our emotions to flow through our bodies. 16:19- Clearing energy as an empath or energy healer. 19:26- The vibrational frequencies of pork vs green juice. 31:59- How siting in gratitude affects us on a cellular level
