Roots of Change, from survival to success with Diane Gudmundson

Accomplishments, degrees, accolades, rewards, courses, professional titles all do not define you or your value / worth as a person. I made this mistake for almost 30 years and oh boy did it take a lot of time and work to figure myself out. I tell you the story in this podcast.

When it comes to life… Well-being, being able to be yourself, having freedom, feeling that you can commit to things, feeling abundance and having healthy relationships… If you’re not healthy and have no energy and your brain is foggy it makes it very difficult to be able to experience all of the positive things in life that make us feel like smiling and be patient. Health to me is a number one priority before making any other changes in life and perhaps you will agree? Enjoy this episode

Life is full of blind spots and we sometimes move through life very quickly and in a rush and we don’t slow down to think very often or even notice how we are!!. Life passes us by when we live like this and being able to slow down and experience life in a peaceful and happy and fulfilling way is incredible. This episode will talk a little bit about seeing if you’re now the kind of person that needs to move towards change or where are you at right now in your life? This is the foundation which is being aware of yourself and how you are being in the world. Enjoy

This episode will introduce me and the reason that I started this podcast. It gives the raw truth as to what in my life has led to where I am now and leading me to my life purpose.

This week I was feeling incredibly inspired when I realized that becoming my authentic self and learning about the power of intention to create the life that I desire, was a very powerful tool that WORKS!!! …and I wanted to share it with people. By not sharing the simple magic, I felt I was doing a disservice to people and decided to speak about how I learned to get to that place where I could set my intentions and have my desired life come true. 🥰.

The pressure and feeling obligated to fix or to help other people with all of their problems create a situation where it takes away your peace and your freedom. If you are always feeling like that you should be or must be helping others with their problems, leads to issues not only with your relationships but also gives you this heavy pressure to always be something for people and to fix them. It’s a very heavy and frustrating place to live in, and you can regain your freedom and your peace by letting others live their life and focus on living yours. By having a servants heart and being willing to provide service and compassion and care for others when they want it from you is a very different energy. By being things for people that they don’t really want, it really just is frustrating for you and you can have an impact on your relationship and give you a heaviness that takes away your freedom and your peace. Take some time today to become self-aware and see what you’re doing to yourself to take away your freedom and your peace every day…

Why is it so hard to say no? Why do we feel pressure and worry about rejecting others or looking bad if we say no? Why do you feel unhelpful and not caring and not a good enough person if we say no? Why do we say yes when on the inside we really want to say no? I’ve had to learn this lesson myself because continually saying Yes everybody actually takes away from your own life and the things in your life that actually matter to you. Continually saying yes to others, actually hurts the people in your life. When we learn to love ourselves and understand ourselves enough to be able to sit firm and yet caring personal boundaries, our life transforms and we start to feel free. We are able to give an offer ourselves to others on our terms And are able to still make our life our talk priority. Learn to say no when you really feel like the answer is no. Say yes only when your body and your life feels inspired to say yes. Avoid the regrets and the irritability And the feeling of always being unappreciated by learning to say no. Have a wonderful day and thank you for listening

I cannot believe how many years I lived saying the words “ I will be happy when…“ And… Was leaving actually in a harried and miserable state most of the time. I was saying things like… I will be happy once my mortgage is paid off or once I actually have time to sit and have coffee or once I achieve XYZ…. Anyway the whole point of this episode is to remind us that happiness is a factory setting. It is something that’s already inside of us and not something that can be achieved or given or anything outside of us That can cause it. It’s just all on the inside. Developing an appreciation and understanding happiness in a different way, will allow you to stop pressure yourself and to allow yourself to feel freedom and happiness and even peace. It is a magical discovery if you make it for yourself. Enjoy this episode and thank you for listening.

I think about just how many years I lived into prominent masculine energy. That energy supported me through the years of achievement at work and was helpful on so many levels… However it was also detrimental on so many levels at the same time. I speak in this episode about my experience with transforming my life by moving into the feminine energy and why this is so important to build your strength and resilience and your power as a female. The truth is, that I feel stronger and more powerful living into my feminine energy than I ever did living into my masculine side. And my life and my relationships in my life have completely transformed as a result and it can also for you.

If there’s one question I get asked more than any other it is “how do I get unstuck”? And the answer is that being stuck is an illusion, which is a shocker to hear for some people😀. I remember the days where I perceived being stuck and I hired numerous therapists and coaches and various other services which didn’t help and once I became familiar with transformational coaching which transforms down to the level of the identity, so it actually works, was the beginning of true transformation for me! Once I added Hypnosis and hypnotherapy to this, and realized that this combination was like rocket fuel and transformation can happen much faster using this tool, then I became a transformational Hypnotherapist which is incredible for my clients! 😀 (and for me!). Our subconscious mind is powerful and tries to keep us in the comfort zone and it is not our fault because after all those years of programming in childhood ages 0 to 7, we can’t help but have the software that continues to run in a loop! The wonderful thing is that the brain is neuroplastic which allows for us to create new neural pathways using Hipnosis allowing for change in thoughts and even in our beliefs which totally transforms our ability to move forward in lifeThank you so much for listening and to work with me, please message me directly or you can email me at [email protected] and please be sure to join my email list so that you hear about new upcoming programs at www.dianegudmundson.com
