Topic: Joy and Fear

We’re going to talk about the two ends of the emotional scale: Joy and fear. Fear is the worst possible emotion that we can live in, and if you’re feeling that way, you need to move on to the next best emotion as soon as possible. We outline how to move your emotions out of fear and closer to joy.

In This Conversation We Cover: 

• [03:33] The two ends of the emotional scale
• [08:35] How to get into a joyous state
• [10:25] Creating the environment to allow manifestation
• [14:24] Manifesting from a place of joy instead of fear
• [21:46] How kindness improves your mood

Topic: Contrast

We all have different things that we want in our lives. How does contrast play a role in that? Contrast, in this instance, is the difference between what you want and what you don’t want in life. The good and the bad. Instead of looking at the gap between what you have and what you want as a bad thing, look at it as the contrast that gives you clarity on what you really want. You cannot manifest what you want while viewing what you have in a negative light. Today, we’re talking about how to look at the contrast in your life and use it to manifest what you want.

In This Conversation We Cover: 

• [03:06] What contrast looks like in life
• [10:04] What to do when you identify contrast
• [14:41] The three steps of manifestation
• [19:45] Fighting the resistance

Rebecca Louise is the rare guest to make two appearances on the show. She recently wrote a book called “It Takes Grit,” and there’s probably no one more qualified to write a book on the topic. Not only is she one of the top fitness icons in the world, but as a challenge to herself she’s been training to climb Mount Everest. Imagine how it must feel to be training for this just to have COVID hit and shut down access to the mountain. We talk about the frustration and challenge of that, as well as all of the ways she’s handled the challenges handed to her this year. It will offer you a great amount of perspective as you handle your own struggles.

In This Conversation We Cover: 

• [04:57] What grit is
• [08:09] How to set goals that light you up
• [13:38] What happened when her Everest climb was cancelled
• [18:42] Where Rebecca is trying to improve her grit
• [23:30] Making it look easy by not complaining
• [29:18] Learning to step back from things you can’t control

Today’s Topic: The Pitfalls of Manifestation

We’ve been talking a lot about manifestation lately, so let’s discuss how many people—including ourselves—do manifesting wrong. Manifesting is such a foreign concept to most of us that we have to break 30, 40, 50 years of ingrained habits in order to be grateful for what we have and excited for what the future is going to bring to us. You need to enjoy the process of manifestation instead of wanting to leave the situation you are in too strongly.

In This Conversation We Cover: 

• [02:25] How manifesting can go wrong
• [04:15] Focusing on what you don’t want
• [09:30] Enjoying the desire of your manifestation
• [19:03] The Focus Wheel process

Today’s Topic: Finding the Right Why

Recently, Kim’s been in a bit of a slump, feeling uninspired, unmotivated, and confused. But as Tony Robbins always says, when you’re confused, you’re on the verge of a breakthrough. Through examining her self-help toolkit, everything she’s learned from every mentor she’s had, and through a deep conversation with me, we were able to zero in on the problem: Finding a Why so exciting that it brings you to tears. With that in mind, we found a new Why that is going to dictate our future strategies and excite us moving forward. In this episode, we outline the steps we took to find that Why and how you can repeat that process yourself.

In This Conversation We Cover: 

• [03:16] Feeling a lack of inspiration 
• [06:23] Rediscovering your why
• [12:35] How your why is rocket fuel for your success

Today’s Topic: Resistance

Within every goal, particularly big ones, there are areas of resistance. You may not even realize they are there. Now, whenever I think about my goals, I search for the areas of resistance.

We’re going to break down how you can look at your goals and the thoughts that hold you back from achieving them and how to dismantle them so you can keep moving forward.

In This Conversation We Cover:

• [05:19] How to handle resistance in specific scenarios
