In this week's episode, Stephanie comes to the session to clear old beliefs around worth, and that work has to be hard, and that life cannot be easy.

As you will learn in the episode, once Stephanie made a commitment to clearing these limiting beliefs, the energy started shifting.

After she scheduled the podcast coaching session, and answered the questions to prepare for the session, she noticed a new way of being.

This is what I call The Activation - the phenomenom that many people experience when they hire a coach, with no idea how they will have the money to pay for it, but somehow the funds magically appear.

When we show ourselves (and Spirit) that we are all in, Source meets us at that place of commitment. Listen to Stephanie open to grace and her inherent worthiness of ease.

In this episode:

- Making commitments

- Going all in

- Co-creating our desires

- Healing limiting beliefs

- Letting go of life being hard and feeling unworthy

- Opening to grace and ease
