What if I told you that you’ve never actually experienced reality as it truly is? What if you’re living inside a prison right now, and you’re the only one with the key to free yourself?

In this episode, I’m getting real about how I haven’t filed my taxes in five years—the reasons why and what finally shifted for me so I could handle this challenge. But this isn’t just about taxes. It’s about the superpower we all have but don’t realize: the power of perception.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, frozen with fear and anxiety, or like life was just happening TO you instead of FOR you, this episode is for you. I’m diving deep into the science of perception, why your brain has you trapped, and exactly what you can do to shift from powerless victim to creator of your life.

 WHAT YOU’LL TAKE AWAY:

• Why your brain can’t tell the difference between real and perceived threats (and how this keeps you stuck)

• How your beliefs literally filter your reality 

• The exact steps to shift from victim consciousness to creator consciousness

• A simple 6-step process to change your perception in real time
