This repost of an episode from 2024 was our most popular episode and it's so relevant, it's worth relistening to often. 

 If you're working on setting goals for the new year, and you start hearing thoughts of imposter syndrome telling you, "Who am I to dream that big? Who am I to do this? What if I don't have what it takes?" and suddenly, you're hesitating from going after this goal, today's episode is going to be so helpful. 

We're exploring how imposter syndrome is not actually a problem. It's not assigned telling you that you should not go after your goals, that you still have things to learn before you do, instead, it's a sign that you're simply expanding into your next level.

Have you ever heard that little voice inside saying your goals are "too big" or questioning "who you are" to pursue them? Maybe you immediately cut an idea down when that voice jumps in with all the logical reasons why it probably won't work. While this voice masquerades as reason and protection, it's actually the biggest obstacle to accessing your true vision and potential.

In this episode, we explore how to move beyond your inner critic and logical mind's limitations to discover what you truly want—not what you think you should want or what seems "realistic."

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why the voice that tells you to "be realistic" is blocking your authentic desires
• How your logical, rational mind constrains your ability to envision your deepest wants
• Three powerful strategies to bypass overthinking and reconnect with childlike imagination
• A step-by-step process for accessing your true vision, used successfully with my yoga and wellness pro clients
• How to distinguish between socially conditioned goals and your authentic desires
• Practical techniques to give yourself permission to dream without constraints
• How to translate your unlimited vision into achievable action steps

Join me as I share the exact three strategies I've used with my yoga and wellness clients who have finally allowed themselves to dream as big as they deeply desire. Discover how moving beyond logical constraints can reveal possibilities you never thought achievable and help you articulate what you truly want—perhaps for the first time in years. It's time to master the art of knowing what you authentically desire and create a vision without limits.
