Nancy Pickard is a Life Coach who specializes in helping people uncover their shadow beliefs and the unconscious commitments they've made to their dis-empowering beliefs.

Shadow beliefs and unconscious commitments are formed in our childhood. They can be "I'm not good enough. I'm not safe alone. I'm not worthy of love. I'm not smart enough. I'm not good with money." These beliefs frame our paradigm and drive our actions to create a reality that supports our narrative.

Nancy created GenConnectU which is an ELearning platform designed to advance the careers and lives of women everywhere. This course has career strategies and tools for achieving your greatest potential: https://genconnectu.com/course/a-bigger-better-braver-career-strategies-and-tools-for-achieving-your-greatest-potential/

Our beliefs shape our reality, stop playing small! A formula you can use to identity if you have a disempowering shadow belief is "I say I want 'x' and I'm experiencing 'y'. If x and y don't equal each other, then you likely have a dis-empowering shadow belief and an unconscious commitment that's keeping you stuck in a loop.

Silvia Gálvez is a Transformational Coach who specializes in trauma, addictions, and healing. She has dedicated more than a decade to learning and practicing healing the body, mind, energy, and spirit.

Silvia has dedicated most of her life to serving others and creating awareness in herself and guiding her clients in their awareness and healing journey.

Healing is a lifelong journey and so is learning. In this episode, we discuss the six inner child's trauma wounds - the betrayal wound, the rejection wound, the abandonment wound, the humiliation wound, the injustice wound, and the scarcity wound. Silvia teaches us the behaviors, thoughts, and beliefs that usually come with each of these wounds and how they can create limiting narratives and unhealthy repetitive cycles in our lives.

Silvia shares the mother of all wounds and teaches us how to work through it so we can begin our healing process. Silvia empowers us to accept ourselves and understand our wounds.

As we shared in this episode, we will be creating a video on Silvia's YouTube and Facebook page where we answer questions on mental health and open up about our journey with depression and suicide when I was a teenager. We'll share the experience through each of our own paradigms, how I experienced it as a teenager and how she experienced it as a mother. If you have questions you'd like us to answer, please connect with us, we would love to hear from you!
