This week Ashley is joined by Jeff Lester to discuss the power of language and how we speak to ourselves. I’m sure you’ve heard cliche phrases like “what you think is what you become” and “your thoughts become your reality” and while these phrases aren’t wrong, we often leave out a big part of the equation beyond the mind and into the physical and that’s how we speak. To ourselves and to others. Jeff has been on a mission over the last several years to resolve the stories that have caused him pain and suffering and has seen first hand how language can help or hinder our manifestations. For the first 20 years of his life, he was a “victim” of the circumstances around him. He was morbidly overweight and allowed the  stress from family drug abuse, verbal abuse, and suicides surrounding him to manifest itself in the form of 120 pounds of extra fat on my body. Until enough was enough, and some much needed separation allowed him to step firmly into my own and say NO MORE! His fate completely changed the moment he chose strength from those adversities instead of self doubt and pity.
