Things can sometimes get so overwhelming, we hit levels of burnout, we feel completely helpless in situations and things seem to be impossible at times. Not even the best of our attempts and effort would make sense. There's only so much that we can control. Find strength in surrender.
Joshua Dean Church is the Director of Operations at High Impact Coaching. He helped the founder scale to multiple 7-figures and a team of 20 in less than 4 years. He helped dozens of other business owners scale with ease so they can work ON their business rather than IN it. Worked closely with hundreds of high performers - from entrepreneurs to executives, and lawyers to artists - to help them achieve more while also enjoying more. He is the host of the Find the Others podcast, helping ambitious people play at a higher level.
In this episode, Josh talks about his style of coaching how he lets everyone live in the real world in the present moment. And that's where that attitude connects with the mission he has for his podcast and that is to find people living the miracle and seeing the miracle that is life and having fun with it. As to him, to be fully alive, you just have to grow in faith. Just like dipping in cold water, if you try to beat it, it wins over you. But if you surrender to it, it embraces you. Just like in your life, with the diet mentality you've been made to believe and live with for many years, nothing is happening as you are still on the up and down journey of losing weight. You've been made to control everything when what this is all about is, letting go, and having that emotional mastery of not having to be scared around food and having the freedom to enjoy it. Life is always peppered with challenges along the way; it is a matter of seeing how you can turn it around and do something good about it for yourself and for others to a greater extent.
"That seemingly horrible thing that happened to me kind of started me looking at the world a bit differently. Like, where else in my life are there challenges that might have led to something beautiful; and in real-time where else, as I'm experiencing challenges, how might this be leading me to something more beautiful?"

The power of the mind is huge. When you feed it with empowering thoughts, that would manifest in your life. Because that's the belief you are trying to infuse into your being. All our life we've had these beliefs coming from different sources -- family, friends, relatives, school, teachers, almost anyone and anything, social media, too, and the like, all have shaped what we think of ourselves in one way or the other. But we have to bring to our attention that not all these beliefs are of any help to us. Hypnosis for permanent weight loss knows how to deal with these various beliefs and makes a way to change them and place new patterns of behaviors and thoughts that are allowing us to move forward in a positive light. It is one good thing to experience it but having the faith to believe it can do great things for you, will definitely do wonders for you. You've got to have the bravery to take the risk and surrender everything to something you trust; that will help you to get to the other side of where you are now. If you're not seeing any improvement and change in your life and your body for many years now, it's because you take the way of control. That's why you find yourself in the diet mentality, all those diets that's being restrictive of what you truly want for yourself.
What if you can have all the freedom to be around food without any fear whatsoever, and just being in the present? That is possible, you've got to trust yourself and have that leap of faith in the program and process that will get you to where you've always wanted. Hypnosis for permanent weight loss helps you toward that journey. You just have to act now.
"A lot of what we talk about in hypnosis for permanent weight loss is our beliefs. What we believe is the reality that we get." - Leslie Thornton

It's true; there's no one else to fault for but you. Whatever happens to your life now is all of your own makings. Why are you still stuck with food in your thoughts? Why can you not seem to trim down those pounds off your body? You've been all through those sorts of diets before. You succeeded; you failed. Here you are still at it, numbing everything you feel lacking in other aspects of your life with food. But it isn't working because that only shows you something is missing that is way deeper than you think. Nothing works without integrity. What you need is clarity. Go for what is authentic to you. Go after what you believe is true for you and not what others want for you. If you won't care to admit that there's something in you that you need to work on, nothing happens. Until when do you pretend not to know? Until when do you acknowledge your unhappiness? Don't wait to carry it for too long. The body carries those emotions, tensions, and stress. And what you do then is, take comfort in food to numb all those pain away. And the cycle goes on and on. This is where Hypnosis helps you, quieting down those inner voices that you keep telling yourself over again that aren't of any help to you. How then to follow your path of highest excitement? Take action. Be brave. And step up! The food is not your enemy; you are the enemy if you don't take action. There is a way out, and YOU are the way.
"If it's not something that you're choosing that works for you, then it's not going to stay; it's not going to stick."

What would it feel like if you could never have the thought of worrying about losing weight? Is that even possible when there is not a day you wouldn't worry over it? I hear your thoughts. Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss makes that possible for you as it did to our guest for today's episode.
In this episode, Monica shares how she has been on an up-down journey in her weight loss for as long as she can remember. She was already chunky, even as a kid. Her whole family was into this whole diet mentality but never really getting successful at it. Contradictions of sorts get in the way; she would admit, trying to lose weight but eating all the unhealthy food. Every time there is a wedding of someone she cares about, her life was like, that's when she lose those pounds. The minute it's done, she'd bloat again waiting until when the next wedding would be when she'd trim down once again. The theme for her is that it's always an event that got her to lose weight. You see, her life was done in expectation of what others and what the world would want to see her. Notice how she never looked at what it is she really wanted for herself. For her, going through that never-ending path of losing and putting back on weight is just so exhausting and self-limiting.
All that has to stop when she came across Leslie's podcast and eventually joined her program -- Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss. How she came to a mind-blowing realization that she is not her thoughts and she is not her body is one thing she finds happiness in knowing. With the tools and resources provided, she has learned self-awareness. She now knows how to quiet down those limiting beliefs that keep on distracting her, how she doesn't worry anymore and think over losing weight only weeks into the program. And the ultimate of it all -- how she found joy in her life now more than ever. And that's what matters.
"One of the things that I realized in this program was that I was taught these wonderful values growing up, and they weren't around food. But one of the things that I was not really taught or encouraged to feel was joy. So that became a big theme for me. That feeling of joy and enjoy what you're doing and follow your bliss and all of that, that expanded my life." - Monica
What you will learn from today's episode:
02:50 - What her life was before she was led to Leslie's podcast
10:56 - How your belief shapes the way you think and act
12:06 - How her journey of up and down in her diet looks like
13:37 - The missing link: What it was like going through Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss

Sometimes it's a cliche to hear it -- Love yourself! And what does that even mean? Whether we realize it or not, we are caregivers, especially with our loved ones and other people. And as we become so focused on caring for others, we take ourselves on the backseat. By the end of the day, we are all worn out and don't have enough time to care for ourselves. What happens is, we keep putting off taking action on what we want to do and eventually makes us lose trust in ourselves. And when we lose trust, that's when we bring ourselves to the pit of despair and hopelessness. We become unkind to our very selves that we keep thinking we're not good enough that we'll never amount to anything, we're not attractive enough to find someone to love us. All these become signs of being needy, and when you need outside forces to validate you, you'll never get to the other side of where you are now. When you feel you are enough and you are complete on your own that's when you find your true self, and that's when opportunity abounds. How do you learn to get past the limiting beliefs and finally learn to say loving things to yourself? What if there are tools to help you deal with the myriad of emotions you feel making your life miserable? Come to think of it, what makes you still get stuck with food is the idea that you want to change because of others' desires and not of your wanting. The reason why diets don't work is that you just want to put off the weight and not deal with the real reason you have an unhealthy relationship with food. Even if you keep on dieting, you will always fall off track if you are coming from a place of hating your body. Fear-based actions will only keep you from truly finding your happiness. When you find freedom in whatever you do and make empowered choices, especially around food and whatever aspect of your life, you will have peace that you aspire to give you that ultimate joy and freedom not found anywhere else but inside you. You only have to love yourself and take action now.
"I say to people all the time, the only thing that's wrong with you is the belief that you think that there's something wrong with you. We need to work on those beliefs that you think are -- there's something wrong with me, I can't be fixed, I'm fundamentally broken. Forgive yourself for having that thought. Know that those are just thoughts, not who you are, and then change it into a loving belief." - Leslie Thornton

Have you ever looked in the mirror and found not everything feels and looks good enough? Are you constantly picking on your body that all you see are the imperfections? Even how hard you tried to get on every diet you can; everything is for naught. Why not stop being regimented? How about you stop controlling everything? Start to learn how to release and trust your body, and just be. Nikki Colmone is a Certified Holistic Health Coach, Author, & Feminine Embodiment Coach. She used to look in the mirror and pick out all the ways her body failed her, all her imperfections. She used to deny who she truly was to please others or fit in. She used to fear being alone so she went from one abusive relationship to another. No matter how hard she dieted, worked out, she just couldn't seem to stick to anything, and she felt like a failure like all the abusive things said to her were true.
Through her studies of Nutrition, Nature therapy, and embracing her inner Witch, she was able to find a way out and say goodbye to the abuse, the self-hate, the emotional eating, the panic attacks, and every single thing that made her feel unworthy or not enough. And now, with over 10 years of experience, a pinch of education, and a dash of magic, she helps women do the same.
In this episode, Nikki talks about her body image issues, emotional and stress eating, failed diets, and workouts, and how it led her to find her authentic self and finally became free, happy, and unrestrictive. When she took the responsibility to find her authentic self, and finally let the 'witch' in her surface and manifest, that's when she saw things flowing easy. When she owns her true self, that's when she kept losing relationships that were not serving her and gaining those that nurture and uplift her. What she found was that your belief has full power over you. When you have a hundred percent faith in something, that's when things happen for the best reason. You only have to look for what speaks to you and when you find it, feel into your body and your being, listen to it. You will then find what you truly want; establish a connection with it, learn to trust, and that magical thing will happen in your life. Nothing happens if you keep doing the same things with no result. Get out of your comfort zone and do things differently. Face your fear and deal with it once and for all, then your truth will finally set you free.
"If we think about emotional eating, stress and all of that, it's because we're trying so hard to control." - Nikki Colmone

Drop that story in your mind that says menopause is the reason why you are not losing weight. I want you to imagine the doctor telling you now that menopause is not the reason why you are not losing weight. What would you do? For sure, you'd be jumping with joy, and you'd be delighted to go about your everyday activity. You will be out and about feeling happy knowing menopause is not what caused why you're not losing weight. And, then, you find yourself losing weight faster. But what if you are told menopause is making you not lose weight. What would your reaction be? You get sad, depressed over the thought of it, drown yourself in despair, stay on the couch more and think all you want why menopause is causing you to gain weight. You know what? What drives you to gain weight is the belief that it happens to you for reasons you want to believe. But don't let that belief be more powerful than you. That's going to take away responsibility from you to take care of yourself. Belief is the most important thing. What you feed your mind is that which manifests in your life. If you feel negatively towards your body, then you don't have the most fulfilling relationship with yourself and others. That is why menopause shouldn't be the story you keep repeating in your mind. More important questions need to be asked about how you are faring in other areas of your life. Most likely, that's where you want things nurtured. Or maybe you are not feeling safe in your life. What is it that makes you feel unsafe? What are others in your life that are lacking integrity? That's where you should focus and not just on any diet. That is not making things work. You've got to work on your mindset; it might be all whacked up. How about finding coping mechanisms and accessing transformational tools to help you feel good regularly? Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss enables you to work on what's not working in your life. It gives you the tools to take responsibility for yourself and your happiness. "You will never become aware of what those deep subconscious fears are until you actually start to ask yourself the harder questions and let go of those stories and those reasons and excuses as to why you can't lose the weight." - Leslie Thornton

Are you feeling beaten down and not finding any solution? However you tried to lose weight, it is still a never-ending success-failure story. How about eating ice cream, pizza, or anything you crave for and lose weight, regardless? You should believe it. Listen in to our guest in this episode and see for yourself how it is indeed possible with Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss. In this episode, Kathy shares how she took the chance to try one more time another thing she has never tried before. Name it; she's had everything she could ever think of just to ward off those unwanted pounds. Yes, it was successful for the time being, but ended up putting on the weight again. When she lost a significant amount of weight, she thought men would finally be attracted to her and love her. What turned out was, she just imagined it; she was still alone and unhappy. What's worse, she went about eating everything and anything until she bloated back. Not until she joined the Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss program did she find out what was missing, after all! That made a big difference, indeed! She could only look back with gratitude and joy in her heart when she exclaimed, 'Have the trees always been this green?'
"Here's what I remember, I lost weight, and I said, 'Now my life will be perfect.' 'And now men will love me.' And now I can, and now I can. And it didn't happen. It was still the same me. And so then I put the weight back on. And I said, 'See, that didn't work'. But it was the same old 'me' habits and 'me' patterns. And that's what was missing. And that's what I found with Leslie's Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss." - Kathy, HPWL Graduate
What you will learn from this episode:
02:29 - How Kathy and Leslie's paths crossed and Kathy joining the program
04:47 - Just how bad her life before Hypnosis than she cares to admit
06:27 - Attempts at losing weight that didn't work in the end
09:10 - What is it about the 'me parts' of her life in the past that made her unhappy
13:34 - Getting into the emotion, spending time to feel, and acknowledging it
20:55 - Letting go of the junk in her life and just being in the present
24:30 - It is just so much better when you are happy
26:21 - Be scared but jump in!
30:02 - We're giving creatures[women], but we've got to give to ourselves

It's the time of the year again when we're hopeful and want to be off to a good start. That's when resolutions come about. We are all eager to start the year right, and what better way to begin the whole year journey than starting it right with a positive thought and action. But most often than not we are just good at the start, somewhere along the way we falter. Often we say we want to lose weight but we never actually lose it; we progress a bit, but we just keep circling back to where we were. The reason why this happens is, that is not what your authentic self truly wants. Perhaps what it wants is to have fun with family and friends, have the freedom, be comfortable around food, and eat whatever you desire. Yes, to be truly happy about yourself and the body you are in and not be bound by restrictions coming from outside forces and voices that are not in keeping with what your true self wants. With Facebook, Instagram, and the diet industry playing off our perfectionist, controlling, and people-pleaser selves, we fall into making choices from a place of fear rather than love. Those voices inside our heads that tell us we're not good enough and that we don't measure up to the world's standard are all just in mind. Nothing happens when we listen to it; others' expectations will always hold us. In the long run, we crumble, and we won't amount to anything. Hypnosis for permanent weight loss helps you focus more than just on weight loss; it's about training your mind and body to find your authentic self. When you succeed at finding it, it opens doors of opportunities that you would never have imagined. This Hypnosis program gives you the accountability and the full support you need as you journey through your newfound freedom and authenticity. Take action now, and invest in yourself!
"The answer for permanency, the answer for consistency is finding your authentic truth and going after it with a vengeance." - Leslie Thornton

Relationships are at the core of life. And when something is not working with it, that leads to emotional or stress eating. And it causes anxiety, anger, resentment, and sadness. And those are awful feelings one can have that no one wants to experience. What we want is to take care of ourselves and our emotions and be better at responding to people and situations. If there is one or any family member that frustrates you, think of one negative feeling you have and then counteract it with ten or twenty positive thoughts. This exercise will lead you to your transformation, changing the way you feel and think, controlling what you can, practicing conditional love for yourself and those who are causing you pain and disappointments. This is how you practice conscious leadership, conscious parenting, and mindfulness in your life. All this can only be attained when you gain full mastery of your emotions, and what better way to get deeper into this than Hypnosis. As our mind is all too judging, what Hypnosis does is training the mind to slow it down so that you're able to have that pause before you react. It's when you heal those traumas and wounds embedded inside the subconscious that's when you truly have the freedom that has always evaded you. Take action on your relationship with yourself, and with food, now. That's the only way to go. "If we can change the way we think, then we change the way we feel. And if we change the way we feel, we're not eating as much. We're not drinking as much; we're not trying to numb ourselves away." - Leslie Thornton
