The Kelly Trach Show

A lot of things can prevent us from fully realizing our dreams, ranging from education to resources to connections. You can overcome these barriers, though it can take a lot of time and effort. But some of the things holding us back aren’t even real world obstacles like money or opportunities! They’re actually limiting thoughts that stifle dreams and keep us from our full potential.

In this episode, I help you pinpoint the mental obstacle you aren’t even aware of, remind you that not every step has to feel like a struggle, and help you accept the risks that come with any big dreams.

My tips for overcoming these blocks:

1. Fill out the blank in the "I would do that, but _____" sentence keeping you in place.

2. Figure out where you're making excuses for how you spend your time and money.

3. Stop convincing yourself that your climb to the top needs to be hard.

4. Accept that your plan will never be 100% risk-free and try making it a reality.

Hitting a stumbling block on your road to the next level isn’t just inconvenient; it can feel like none of your work has been worth the effort. But in fact, you’re way closer to your goal than you think—hell, you haven’t been putting in all this work for nothing. I know that with the right perspective you will see how every barrier has been a valuable (if painful) learning experience that will help you to level up, and that your big breakthrough is just around the corner.

In this episode, I guide you step by step over the obstacles blocking your path and help you realize just how far you’ve gotten already.

My 5 Breakthrough Tips:

1. Things feel more difficult the closer you are to your breakthrough.

2. Frequent rejection means you're increasing your output and putting more of yourself out there.

3. You're starting to financially invest in your own success and spend your money in ways that will help you.

4. You've begun to take the big risky leaps you need to succeed.

5. If you're feeling impatient, it's because you know success is just around the corner.

What if the work that used to pump you up now seems boring and routine? What if your calling has turned into a drudge? Trust me, I’ve been there too. Heck, I can't count the amount of times I've wanted to give up in my life. What you need to do is take a step back, reconsider why it is you got into this line of work, and figure out for certain if you should stay or if you should go (like the song!). By the time you finish reevaluating what you stand for and how you can make your moves going forward, you’re not just going to get results—you’re going to come out of this a Results Monster! Godzilla beware!

In this episode, I hammer in how dedicated you are to have made this much progress to begin with, remind you that the great things in life come together one bit at a time, and explain why you and you alone need to be the one to take action.

In this episode, you'll learn:

- To recognize and applaud yourself for making it this far already.

- If you do want to give up, hit the breaks and take time to reflect before making a choice.

- Be aware that real, lasting results take time.

- It's better to take the leap and quit than be dragged out of it by the universe.

- If you won't take the leap, the universe will choose for you.

Bench Bookkeeping. It's automated bookkeeping and all you have to do is sync your credit cards, bank accounts, website and then upload bills. A real bookkeeper will do the rest! It makes my life a total dream. When you sign up here, you’ll get 1 free month of bookkeeping + 20% off your first 6 months. With that free trial month, Bench will do your last month’s books with no credit card required so you can test it out, see the graphs, the statements, and how it works! Literally one of the best investments I’ve ever made in my business.

It’s sad, but not everyone wants to come along for the ride with the big career plans you have laid out—maybe they’re family members who’re concerned for you and want you to settle down with something less risky, or maybe they’re friends who envy your drive. You shouldn’t cut these people out of your life, but it’s still your best option to put some distance between you and find mentors and peers who have the same drive you do.

In this episode, I explain why building up your own confidence will boost other people’s confidence in you, teach you how to set healthy boundaries with people who might not believe in your dream, and suggest how you can build up a way stronger support system.

In this episode, you'll learn:

- You need to believe in yourself 100% for people to believe in you too.

- Nobody else gets to decide how you live your life.

- Set boundaries for those who want to tag along, or else leave them behind.

- Don't give up on your dreams just because some people don't support you.

- Surround yourself with new friends and maybe even hire a coach.

I've got two big bushels of good news for you listeners today! The first is that the Kelly Trach Show has actually made it into the Top 100 self-help podcasts for South Korea! A big thank you to everyone over there who helped get me into the big leagues. The second? Psychic Bree Melanson, who you've definitely heard me rave about before, is on today's episode! After seeing Bree live in Vancouver, I knew I had to have her on my show, and she was more than happy to bring her brand of emotionally healing ESP to the rodeo.

In this episode, Bree discusses how you can tap into your soul’s purpose, what you need to do to take that leap of faith, and actually does an actual soul reading for me!

About Bree:

Not your conventional psychic, Bree Melanson offers accessible and soul-inspiring spiritual straight-talk as a medium and direct channel to help unfold individual and collective potential. Bree uses her personal journey to her inner knowing and her experience of navigating a series of life bumps and trust falls with the Universe as the foundation for supporting others in connecting with their own innate psychic abilities. She offers a real, raw, and contemporary approach to empowering others to express their calling through connecting with their intuition, clearing limiting beliefs, having real conversations with the soul and experiencing the ease and freedom of living in alignment with purpose and truth. And, she keeps it human while casually talks to angels and light beings...NBD.

In this episode, you'll learn:

- Bree’s daily routine and how intermittent fasting has proven to be very helpful.

- How Bree received her message to be a healer and got into her line of work.

- The time Bree got an unsually clear sign from the universe.

- Writing a letter to your soul of surrender.

- How to tell if your ego has taken the driver's seat.

- My very own mini soul check-in courtesy of Bree!

- A sneak peak at retreats Bree will be offering later this year.

Let’s say you have a good talent or skill—woodworking, public speaking, coding—and while you’d like to set off on your own and make not just a career but an enterprise out of it, some concerning questions on your mind: what if I fail?wWhat if these goals are bigger than what I’m capable of? It’s perfectly normal to have these worries, but here’s the thing: you’ll never find the answer to these questions unless you try. So the important first step is boosting your confidence enough that you can actually make the moves you need to make.

In this episode, I hammer home that you—and you alone—are destined to do the work the universe says you’re capable of, explain how you can take the fullest advantage of your moment when it comes for you, and emphasize that it’s better to specialize in one skill rather than spread yourself out across several.

In this episode, you'll learn:

- How you are the right person for the job the universe has given you.

- To tune out the naysayers and practice good boundaries with them when you need to.

- That success is about intentional choice, not getting lucky.

- How to make this the moment you don't give up on yourself.

- To focus on one thing to be amazing at instead of several.

- That the money will come as long as you have the right mindset and strategy.

To switch things up, I asked you lovely listeners of mine what thoughts and feelings you were struggling with the most. Turns out quite a few of you get the itch to quit when stress bears down on you—and you know what? I get it! Even the most ambitious and determined people want to make for the fire exit sometimes, and you shouldn’t ashamed for wanting to do the same. But instead of giving up, you should use these crises to stop, figure out your next steps, and make some big changes.

In this episode, I talk about the questions you should ask yourself when you’re feeling uncertain, why you should go with the flow of your intuition, and focus on the changes you need to make to get yourself back on your feet. And a big thank you to @jellybelly1215 on Instagram for her five star review!

In this episode, you'll learn:

- To ask empowering questions as you move through this uncertain phase.

- That your rock bottom moments can provide the greatest opportunities for improvement and expansion.

- If you're uncertain, then ask your intuition what's next for you and go with it.

- How not to be afraid of ripping the bandage off and taking radical action.

- That it’s okay, and even healthy, to quit and say "No!"

- To figure out the one thing that would support you and push you forward.

If you are all about real talk, you’ll feel right at home with the next hour of this show. Alex D’amour is the founder of On Our Moon, a digital tent centered around wellness, truth-telling and shared emotional experience. For those who’ve had to struggle with hardship, trauma and deep emotional or physical wounds, this conversation may bring you much-need comfort and validation.

In this episode, Alex opens up about the trauma she’s experienced in her past, explains how she put her shame to work, and suggests some tips for getting past social anxiety and through stressful situations.

About Alex:

On Our Moon is a digital tent. A place where vulnerability reigns supreme, and where stories and wisdom from a spectrum of lived experiences create a new take on wellness: wellness, without the bullshit. This company is founded by Alex D'Amour who's navigated a life-long journey of experiencing, processing, and moving through shame. And while she tried every trick in the book to move through past trauma (and she means every trick in the book), story has been a constant form of solace and healing for her. Listening to others’ and sharing her own has been the most powerful tool in helping her navigate her way out of shame, and back into connection with herself, her body, and others. Which is why she built On Our Moon and designed a period candle. With a team of writers giving voice to diverse lived experiences and dedicated to raw truth-telling, On Our Moon is recreating the sacred gathering space to share story, wisdom and insights while caring for one another with love and tenderness. And in the process, they are redefining wellness as the powerful internal life-journey it is, creating a world filled with self-loving and radically self-accepting humans.

In this episode, you'll learn:

- Alex’s morning routine and how she escaped the rat race with her recent trip to Mexico.

- How the shared vulnerability she found with strangers in support groups pushed her to found On Our Moon.

- The healthy way she changed-up her social media habits, and how you can positively affect your mental health by how you engage with those platforms.

- Why we need to learn to speak up in public settings and how it benefits not only you but everyone in your group.

- How Alex psychs herself up to deal with stressful, anxiety-inducing situations, and why she let go of being perfect.

- What shame means to Alex and how it’s allowed her to become her true self.

- Why there isn’t a quick and easy way to navigate through shame—and why there shouldn’t be.

- Her advice for anyone starting out on their journey to own their truth.
