Courage Culture

In this episode, I share a couple of personal stories about learning to define what I want, and how taking aligned action allowed the Universe to support me step by step. 

In this episode I share a raw part of my life that echoes my deepest struggles, and how I got through it. I explain how this trauma is the fundamental piece for my transformation, and how every single thing that happens in your life has a cost AND a benefit. I also share how I got it all wrong! I share how I wasn't receiving Dad's love, but he ALWAYS loved me... And the journey I went on to find that love that was always there.

(N.B. This episode also comes with some tough love. If you are stuck in a cycle or struggling with anything in your life right now, this episode will help you understand why you are stuck and exactly what to do in order to move through it.)

In this episode:

The internal war that I've been dealing with regarding this podcast.

Some recent challenges I've faced (and how I dealt with them).

Where the root of anxiety, panic attacks, depression exist.

The rules of your game: what are they and how to find it.

PLUS: Me being used by the divine as the conduit for a beautiful message for you.

"Each day gets to be an opportunity for expansion, an evolution, not just a repeat of the same thing. The real question is, "Are you actually working on things that truly matter or are you just working on things because that's the thing you need to do in order to create the end result... You really do get to choose."

"If you live in your head, if you live in distraction, if you live your life when you're always on the go and you don't slow down to listen to what your soul is trying to speak through you, then you just keep creating more of the same... in the hope that the end result will give you that happiness, that joy, that inner peace that you're looking for. But if the journey that you're taking, if the actions you're taking aren't in alignment or aren't fulfilling, then the end result is only going to be a temporary glimpse of joy or happiness or release, before you go out chasing more. What's more you are going to find ways to cope with the disharmonious relationship you create within yourself as you spend more time, more days, more weeks, more months, more years doing things you truly don't want to be doing."

You will continue to go through a cycle of challenges... because you are not choosing to move. So the Universe will continue to push you until you do. That's why problems happen in your life. It's your highest order, your soul's evolution to grow."

In this episode:

Learn why choice is your greatest weapon against the feeling of being stuck.

A simple process that I use to make decisions (this is great if you experience overwhelm or tend to overthink things!)

Finding alignment with what you truly want (and why this serves as the greatest antidote to being stuck).

An exercise you can do to help you find alignment and make progress doing things you absolutely LOVE.

"You could be able to execute at such a high level, but let me remind you that there are so many people that can execute at a high level, and then they get to a point when they hit a mid life crisis because they've been executing on things that are not in alignment to their heart and their soul. They're just doing things because they have to... They spend too much time doing more for others than they do for themselves."

"You don't need to have every single step figured out right now"

"Each day you have a new opportunity, and you get to choose exactly how you live. You get to choose what you do. You have made a series of choices in your life that has resulted in the life you now live, and that reality is your reality and you also get to choose how you respond to that. You can do that with love and appreciation, or you can do that with regret and disgust. You can do that with condemnation, blame, despair, anxiety or anger. Or, you can process all of these emotions and come to a space of saying "Hey, you know what, I created all of this... My past is my past and I cannot change a single thing about it, but what I can do is choose that from this moment forward I declare that I will create a new pathway for myself. That pathway is taken step by step. It's forged through a series of actions, not one big one..."
