In this episode, Pastor Bill Rose and I chat about the stigmas that people have about the church, shame and vulnerability in the church, loving people when you don’t condone their actions, and God vs intuition.

We also dig into practical topics that we experience regularly, like the “messy middle” of holding others accountable and giving advice without attachment.

Towards the end, Pastor Bill has an incredible call to action for anyone listening, whether or not you’re religious.

In this episode, we’re talking about intuition, also known as inner wisdom, inner knowing, true wisdom, consulting your own powers, gut, and heart. These are all ways to talk about the inner voice that we all have within us. 

You may be intimately familiar with the feeling of a gut instinct that hits you out of nowhere, but you may not know that you don’t need to wait for that gut instinct to kick in. You can actively dialogue with your intuition to get the answer that’s right for you in that moment. In this episode, I show you how.

My hypnotherapist Christy Bartelt and I chat about Rapid Transformational Therapy, our subconscious beliefs, and the mind. Specifically, we dive into how RTT works, myths and misconceptions about hypnotherapy, how to spot a good hypnotherapist, who shouldn’t do RTT, and how to set yourself up for success after an RTT session.

We also dive into specific RTT techniques that you can use in everyday life if you’re not ready for or interested in hypnotherapy.

We also segue into giving and receiving feedback -- how to redefine kindness in relation to feedback, the mirror technique, and refusing feedback.

Christy gives four incredible pieces of wisdom on how the mind works at the very end of the episode, so be sure to listen until the end.

Oh, and stay tuned for analogies about wild horses, luggage, clouds, and birthday cakes.

If you’ve said “I’m just not creative” or “I have trouble focusing” within the past year, this episode is for you.

In this solo episode, I discuss morning pages -- three unscripted pages of free writing every morning -- and the benefits that you might see if you choose to do morning pages.

Those benefits include stretching yourself creatively, improving your decision-making skills, accessing your intuition and inner wisdom, learning to be more present, understanding your dreams and their subconscious meanings more fully, and perhaps most importantly, dramatically increasing your self-awareness. Bonus benefit: Dedicated time without your phone in hand!

In the second half of the episode, I discuss the prompts that I use daily, including a five senses check-in, gratitude and appreciation lists, dream interpretation, and a values check-in.

Liz Cohen, my former career coach, and I chat about crafting a career with intention. We discuss the importance of concretely defining your values, the benefit of pivoting, and what to do with our limitations.

We chat about why Liz gave up public speaking, how to increase the chances of your dream coming true from 65% to 95% (seriously), and the beauty of formalizing “safety nets” in our lives.

We have a two-part call to action for you within the episode, so be sure to listen closely for that.
