January 29, 2024Ep. 69 Creating REAL confidence & Your most wildly successful life (IG Live replay)
On this episode I am joined by my beautiful friend and co-facilitator Crystal Angwin to talk about confidence.

We go deep into how you can create (remember) your most powerful, confident self and start showing up as her.

This chat talks about how we need to look at both our mind and our nervous system when it comes to confidence and healing the parts of ourselves that feel like they are unworthy.

Tune in to learn:
How we learn to stop being confident and start playing small

How a lack of confidence manifests itself into our reality

Why we need to create safety within ourselves in order to feel confident

Confirming vs Disconfirming experience

Why we need to do both the mindset and embodiment work to experience true confidence

Understanding your nervous system and what you need

Why people can get stuck if they only use nervous system regulation tools instead of doing deeper work

Tools to help you feel safe in your life

July 09, 2023Ep. 61 A real life shadow work transformation? WTF? Ft. Lauren Ratcliffe
Today I invited one of my long term clients onto the podcast to talk about her journey and transformation with shadow work.
I love this interview because it highlights the truth and the journey of doing this work, and that it’s not a quick fix, it doesn’t stop shit from happening - but it completely overhauls the way you feel about yourself, the way you show up when shit does hit the fan and how much your external world does change when you do change your internal world.
If you have been curious about shadow work and the journey, this is a beautiful episode.
Tune in to learn:
A real life transformation from doing Shadow Work

Loads of truth bombs about ‘doing the work’

Letting go of the need for external achievement while still achieving

Finding inner strength, presence and contentment in who you are
