Welcome to Michael Hicks: The Liv2Thrive Podcast. In this powerful episode, Faith, Fitness, and Follow-Through, Michael Hicks connects the dots between spiritual growth, physical training, and the identity work required to stay consistent when life gets loud.

If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of starting strong and falling off, this episode will challenge you with a Liv2Thrive truth: you don’t rise to your goals, you fall to your identity. We talk about why vague goal-setting is often self-deception, how discipline is built through standards (not moods), and why fitness can become a form of stewardship, resilience, and worship.

Michael also breaks down a trauma-informed insight many high achievers miss: for some people, constructive criticism doesn’t feel like information, it feels like danger. That sensitivity can sabotage confidence, relationships, and follow-through unless you build nervous-system capacity and learn to separate feedback from identity.

🔥 In this episode you’ll learn:

• Why faith without follow-through becomes fantasy (and how to shift)
• How fitness builds more than a body, it builds self-trust and consistency
• The real reason you keep negotiating with yourself and losing momentum
• How to handle constructive criticism without spiraling into shame
• Why your WHY matters (identity-driven purpose) and what happens when it’s missing
• Liv2Thrive “Order of Operations”: Identity → Environment → Schedule → Execution

In this episode of Michael Hicks: The Liv2Thrive Podcast, Michael breaks down the real truth about triggers, why they feel so powerful, and how they quietly hijack your relationships, confidence, discipline, and peace. This isn’t “soft talk” and it’s not blame. It’s the Liv2Thrive reframe: your trigger is a signal, not a sentence.

You’ll learn why being “triggered” isn’t a personality trait, how stress and unresolved identity wounds amplify your reactions, and why the goal isn’t perfect emotional control. It’s capacity: the ability to stay grounded, lead yourself, and choose truth over feelings when life pokes the bruise.

Michael also speaks directly to the “strong one who’s tired,” the leader who’s overwhelmed, and the person who keeps saying “I’m fine” while internally spiraling. If you’ve been stuck in cycles of overreacting, shutting down, people-pleasing, anger, anxiety, or emotional exhaustion, this episode will challenge you and give you clarity on what’s really happening beneath the surface.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

What triggers actually are (signal + story + identity pressure)

Why stress makes your fuse shorter and your reactions louder

How unhealed pain turns small moments into big explosions

The difference between valid feelings and reliable truth

Why isolation, guilt, and shame keep triggers in charge

The Liv2Thrive mindset shift that helps you respond instead of reacting

If this episode hits home, share it with someone who’s been feeling reactive, stretched thin, or disconnected from who they really are.

Why “being the best for yourself” multiplies your impact in relationships, family, and work

The difference between healthy self-prioritization and ego-driven self-focus

How to build discipline when motivation disappears

The boundary shifts that protect your energy without guilt

A practical framework to refill your tank so you can pour into others consistently

Boundaries That Build You: How to Stop People-Pleasing & Take Back Your Time

Show Notes:

In this powerful episode of Framing New Heights, host Michael Hicks (Liv2Thrive Coaching) unpacks why most people don’t have a goal problem… they have a boundary problem.

If you feel constantly drained, stretched thin, or resentful because you’re doing everything for everyone else, this conversation will hit home.

Michael walks through the Liv2Thrive Mind–Body–Soul framework and shows how weak or nonexistent boundaries:

• Drain your energy
• Derail your health goals
• Keep you stuck in people-pleasing
• Block your spiritual and emotional growth

You’ll hear:

• The difference between real boundaries and “cutting people off”
• Why people-pleasers struggle to say “no” without guilt
• How The Rock, Tony Robbins, and Mel Robbins all echo the same core principles behind consistent change
• Real stories from clients who were overwhelmed, burned out, and stuck — and how stronger boundaries helped them reclaim their time, health, and identity

This episode is packed with the WHAT and the WHY behind your patterns so you can finally see:

• Why you keep quitting on yourself
• Why your life feels out of alignment
• Why you’re tired of living on everyone else’s expectations

If you’re ready to stop leaking energy and start living on purpose, press play.

In this powerful episode of Framing New Heights, host Michael Hicks sits down with Amy Bigelow — Empath Life Coach, Advanced Reiki Practitioner, U.S. Navy veteran, cancer survivor, and founder of Hope Embodied — for a deeply honest conversation about healing, intuition, and living unapologetically aligned.

Amy shares her journey from government accounting to holistic healing, how surviving cancer reshaped her relationship with her body and faith, and why being an empath is not a weakness — it’s a superpower when properly understood and protected. Together, Michael and Amy explore what emotional burnout really looks like, how empaths absorb energy without realizing it, and why so many people feel exhausted, stuck, or disconnected from their purpose.

This episode dives into the Liv2Thrive Framework (Mind, Body, Soul), discussing awareness, alignment, and identity-driven action — not surface-level motivation. You’ll hear practical insights on energetic boundaries, emotional regulation, intuition, spiritual growth, and what it truly means to stop living in the “should” paradigm and start becoming who you were designed to be.

Amy also opens up about van life, resilience, faith, and the daily practices that keep her grounded while helping others heal. The conversation closes with a fun True/False segment that brings lightness, laughter, and real-life wisdom.

If you’re an empath, highly sensitive person, or someone navigating burnout, emotional overload, or a spiritual awakening — this episode will meet you right where you are.

🔑 Topics Covered:

• Empath burnout and emotional exhaustion
 • Turning sensitivity into strength
 • Healing after trauma and illness

You’ll buy toilet paper, paper towels, snacks, streaming subscriptions, Target runs, Amazon boxes, and late-night DoorDash without thinking twice…

However, the moment it’s time to invest in your mindset, health, healing, or coaching, suddenly it’s:

“I can’t afford it.”
“Not right now.”
“Maybe next year…”

In this powerful episode of Framing New Heights, host Michael Hicks — life coach and founder of Liv2Thrive — exposes one of the biggest mindset traps holding people back:

We consistently fund the trash but hesitate to invest in our own transformation.

This isn’t an episode about budgeting toilet paper.
It’s an honest look at why:

You feel guilty spending money on yourself

You stay stuck in cycles of burnout, overwhelm, and self-doubt

You say you want change, but your bank statement and calendar say otherwise

Michael shares real-life coaching stories (with clients’ identities protected) of high-achievers, parents, and leaders who spent years buying things that went into the garbage, while their mental health, physical health, and spiritual alignment were quietly falling apart.

Through the lens of the Liv2Thrive framework, he unpacks:

Why “I can’t afford it” is often really “I don’t believe I’m worth it yet”

How “trash spending” feels safe because it doesn’t require growth, accountability, or identity shifts

Why your nervous system would rather stay in a familiar struggle than risk unfamiliar freedom

How your bank account is a mirror of what you truly value and believe about yourself

You’ll be challenged to take an honest look at:

Where your money goes each month

How much you’ve leaked on things that didn’t change your life

What your life will look like in 6–12 months if nothing changes

Whether you’re truly “unable” to invest in yourself — or just unconvinced that you are a safe place to invest

This is a confronting but compassionate episode that invites you to stop treating yourself as the last line item on your own priority list. Michael doesn’t just talk about self-investment from a mindset lens — he ties in faith,

If you’re exhausted, overcommitted, and feel like you’re carrying everyone’s emotional weight… this episode is your reset.

In this powerful Framing New Heights conversation, Michael Hicks, founder of Liv2Thrive Coaching, breaks down the truth about people-pleasing and why so many high-achievers, parents, and leaders struggle to say no — even when they’re drowning.

This episode tackles the emotional, practical, and faith-based reality of boundaries with a message you need to hear:

Boundaries aren’t selfish. They’re sustainability.

You’ll learn the 3 lies people-pleasers believe, how burnout is often a boundary problem (not a motivation problem), and how to protect your time, energy, and identity without feeling like the villain in someone else’s story.

I will be sharing real coaching insights (without names) from clients navigating stress, parenting overload, relationship imbalance, leadership pressure, and constant over-functioning — proving that your peace is worth protecting.

🔥 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

Why saying “yes” too often quietly erodes your health and purpose

The 3-core people-pleasing lies:

“If I say no, I’ll lose them.”

“My worth is in what I do.”

“Burnout is just part of life.”

The Liv2Thrive “No Blueprint” for clear, calm, confident boundaries

How to stop over-explaining your no

The difference between being compassionate and being consumed

Why even Jesus modeled rest, withdrawal, and intentional boundaries

Simple boundary scripts you can use this week

🙏 Faith-Based Alignment:

This isn’t just self-help — it’s wise living.
You’ll also hear biblical principles that support healthy boundaries, emotional stewardship, and identity-based leadership.

💪 Your Takeaway:

By the end of this episode, you’ll have the clarity and confidence to stop living for everyone else’s expectations — and start leading your life with peace, structure, and purpose.

Fear is the loudest voice in your mind — yet it’s the voice that lies the most.

In this powerful episode of Framing New Heights, Life Coach and Liv2Thrive founder Michael Hicks breaks down the real reason fear feels so controlling, how it shapes your identity, and more importantly — how you can break free from the stories fear keeps telling you.

If you've been stuck in overthinking… procrastination… people-pleasing… perfectionism… or self-doubt — this is the episode that will shift everything.

Today you’ll learn:

✅ Why fear becomes your identity

Fear attaches itself to past trauma, childhood wounds, and old stories you never challenged. You don’t respond to fear — you respond to memory.

✅ How fear rewrites your future before you even step into it

Fear is historical, not logical. It uses your past to sabotage your potential.

✅ Why fear intensifies when you try to grow

Spiritual, emotional, and physical breakthroughs always trigger resistance.

✅ How to defeat fear using the Liv2Thrive Framework

You’ll learn the 5-step blueprint for breaking the cycle:

Name the fear

Trace the origin

Replace the story

Take micro-action

Anchor your faith

✅ Biblical truths that expose fear as a liar

→ 2 Timothy 1:7
→ Psalm 34:4
→ Joshua 1:9
→ Romans 8:15

✅ Real stories from Michael’s childhood + clients

From growing up in chaos… to a teacher punched by a 4th grader… to clients who finally overcame fear after decades — these stories will bring clarity, courage, and conviction.

WHY YOU KEEP REPEATING THE SAME CYCLES (AND HOW TO BREAK THEM FOR GOOD)
Framing New Heights Podcast — with Coach Michael Hicks

Are you tired of repeating the same cycles in your life — emotionally, financially, mentally, spiritually?
Do you keep telling yourself “This time will be different” … yet somehow it always ends the same?

In this powerful episode of Framing New Heights, Coach Michael Hicks, founder of Liv2Thrive™, breaks down the REAL reason you stay stuck — and it has nothing to do with discipline, motivation, or willpower.

This episode reveals:

Why you repeat cycles you hate

The hidden identity patterns that sabotage your progress

Why motivation never sticks

How survival mode keeps you trapped

The difference between chasing and becoming

What it REALLY takes to transform your life

The foundation of the L.I.V.2.T.H.R.I.V.E Identity Transformation Framework™

This isn’t hype.
This isn’t surface-level self-help.
This is identity-level truth that will shake you awake.

If you’re ready to break generational patterns, rebuild your confidence, strengthen your mindset, and finally become the person you were created to be — this episode will change everything.
