Have you ever caught yourself thinking:

• I need to know the right answer
• The more information I have, the better
• I must never waste time or money with the wrong decision
• Other people know better than me

Then you might be suffering from analysis paralysis!

We humans often use overthinking to keep ourselves safe. And in prehistoric times, it probably worked. 

But even though the world is now safer, we can't stop. So we drive ourselves crazy trying to figure out the right workout plan, dating profile, weight loss strategy, and career path.

The good news is that overthinking and analysis paralysis really are just habits. And we can teach our brains new habits.

In this podcast episode, I share some of my favorite tools to tame overthinking and simplify your decisions.

If you're anything like me, you're always searching for the right answer to every question.

Like when I wanted to run an ultramarathon, I not only read a book and scoured every website I could find for training advice. I actually got certified as an ultramarathon coach to make sure I was doing it PERFECT. #queenofoverdoingit

But you know who a lot of us aren't asking for guidance?

The most important person — ourselves.

Learning to ask yourself for guidance is a game-changer.

Putting your own guidance first is a game-changer.

Learning to trust your own authority is a game-changer.

I could have avoided so much difficulty in life by simply asking myself, "What do I really think about this?" (Before diving in headfirst 😂 .)

Did you know your mind is holding onto every piece of wisdom, every insight, every helpful thought, every creative idea you've ever had?

You can't access them all with your conscious mind. Because think about it. Knowing everything at once would be like extreme ADHD.

But you can access anything you need to when you need it! And meditation is a great way to do that.

So today on the podcast, I'm sharing the wise advocate meditation. (You can also think of it as the "highest self meditation," if that lands better.)

Have fun going inside your brain and asking (yourself) any question you want!

I do this one all the time, and I'm always surprised what answers come through.

We all have this romantic idea that when we most need support, our friends will lean in.

And sometimes they do. But very often, they don't.

It's pretty common for people experiencing grief and loss to find themselves alone, forgotten, or misunderstood when they need community most.

Even intimate partnerships get impacted. It's more common for a marriage to end after a major loss or the death of a child, for example.

So how should we take it when our support system seems to be distancing from us? How can we process the hurt without writing everyone off?

As someone diagnosed with a chronic illness last year (a grief event that's hard for others to comprehend), I don't have all the answers. But I think I've got some useful thoughts.

In this podcast, I'll share six tips on navigating relationships with people who just don't get your struggle.

A manifestation portal? What the cheese balls is that?

And why should you care if you’re not a whacky, woo woo, green-juice slurping, crystal farming hippie? 😂

Bestie, I promise. Manifestation is for everyone.

And no, you don’t have to be a toxic positivity monster to benefit and enjoy.

To help you understand manifestation and how it works, I made you a video!

It includes a little bit of teaching and a cool guided meditation you can use when you’re manifesting new things.

About a year into my personal growth journey, I was convinced I was fucking it up.

Why?

Because I wasn't having any massive breakthroughs.

🔥  I wasn't making six figures in my business while sitting on a beach with my laptop.

🔥 I wasn't engaged to the love of my life.

🔥 I didn't have a perfect, healthy body with a six pack. (Do 47 year-olds even have six packs? Doubtful. But that's where my mind still goes. 😂 )

I didn't have any of the external stuff. So my mind told me I was failing somehow.

But here's the truth.

The personal growth industry is constantly selling the idea that the only kind of change that "counts" is big, visible, and external.

When in reality, the greatest changes you will ever experience will be internal.

The industry sells us on the idea of changing quickly and dramatically.

When in reality, the biggest changes are subtle, incremental, and add up slowly over time. (Often so slowly that it feels like nothing is happening at all!)

The industry tells us we need a breakthrough. When in reality, breakthroughs are far less common than subtle shifts.

So today, I want to talk about the practice of cultivation.

How daily devotion to your growth pays off in the long run (and often much more than that breakthrough you're hoping for).

And how the most valuable shifts you can experience are internal and invisible — yet deeply felt and life-changing.

Hypnosis. Trance. The unconscious.

To some people, these are spooky concepts!

But to me, they are some of the most healing words in the English language.

And it's time to pull back the curtain.

In today's episode, I'm going to spill the beans on all things hypnosis.

What it is ... and isn't.

How it works, and what modern neuroscience research tells us about its effectiveness.

How I structure my client journeys to help create lasting change without struggle.

The three levels of work we do in hypnocoaching. 

I'll also debunk common hypnosis myths (I used to believe these too!)

And tell you how you can experience hypnosis for free (and also what it's like to be a private hypnocoaching client).

I know we've all been beaten over the head with the need to sleep more. And I can tell you as a coach and personal trainer that SOME OF IT IS HYPE.

However, a good night's sleep has many benefits:

• Cleanses your brain of neurotoxins
• Promotes neuroplasticity, change, and emotional shifts
• Regulates your hormones and metabolism (can even help you lose weight)
• Promotes deep cellular healing (so essential for you Long Covid peeps!)
• Improves focus and productivity
• Gives your mood a boost

So in this podcast episode, I'm going to share some tools to help you fall asleep quickly and easily.

We'll cover:

• The winning sleep mindset
• How to slow down internal processing
• How to quiet self talk
• And more!

Is it toxic to badmouth positivity?

Maybe. 

But if you know me, I like to stir the pot a little.

Also, as part of the coaching and personal development industry, I feel a duty to call out harmful practices. 

That way, potential clients can recognize them, avoid them, and self-innoculate for those moments when they show up out of nowhere. 

(Yes, even when it's something I say.)

It's time to burn down lies like:

• If you got cancer, you manifested it with negative thinking
• Bad things are happening because you let in the bad thoughts
• The whole point of life is to be happy, and it's actually possible to be happy all the time
• Personal development means pushing away or ignoring negative experiences (others' and your own)
• We need to silence the low vibe parts of us
• Suzy reached her business/weight/dating goal faster because her thoughts are better than mine

In this episode, you'll learn why toxic positivity is such a hot trend, where it comes from, and what you can do when it shows up in your life.
