The Strong Within Affirmation Podcast

What if the things you loved, the things that mattered to you, all of the sudden...disappeared?

The things that matter to us...we find ways to keep them in our lives by giving our love, our time, and even our money to keep them in our lives.

Have you ever loved a musical act, a certain television program, an artist or author...and they or their works have disappeared?

Well, that's how this podcast works too. It takes a great deal of effort, money, and coordinating to continually bring it to you...to keep it going.

I know not everyone can give monetarily to support the podcast, but if the podcast has made a difference in your life and still does...and you feel you can give--then please consider being a patron/supporter of the podcast.

The way I keep this podcast going is from listener's donations and support. And those who donate get certain benefits and perks that no one else does.

Thank you for your consideration in helping me keep this podcast going, and thank you to those who are currently giving. You are the lifeline for this podcast and I appreciate you more than you'll ever know.

What would it feel like to be able to get instantly confident before that speech you had to give in front of C level exec in your company, or to rid writers block almost immediately, or to start a goal without hesitation instead of avoiding it like you have for the past few months (or years)?

In this podcast, I am going to go over the 3 ways to create instant confidence before you start the work.

The technique I present is something I do before I write or record any podcast, before I step in front of a camera, or how I find ways to be more creative in all avenues of my life.

We think that we are unsuccessful in our goals because we aren't motivated, or we feel we don't have the education or tools, or maybe we have told ourselves that it's just not in our wheelhouse to make it happen.

But those are all lies that are keeping us comfortable from not moving forward because of our fears of failing.

And in today's episode, I am going to help you create instant confidence if you practice this simple technique before you sit down to do the work.

I am looking forward to hearing about your successes.

Are coincidences really coincidences or something more?

In this episode, I speak of a recent set of coincidences, and I examine how our perception of what happens to us during these times can either be helpful or harmful in our self-development.

So grab a seat, and listen in. I don't think it's a coincidence that you and I connected today ;-).

Do you know why failure is easy?

It's not because it's in our DNA, or because we can't do something...it's because we have decided to know failure.

We have opened our door to the so called demons and blame them for our misfortune...when only one person is responsible--ourselves.

And not because we are irresponsible, stupid, or broken, but because we have decided to tell a story of why we can't instead of asking "who do I want to be in this moment."

To know success means to work to understand it, not just have it when it is convenient.

So join me on today's podcast and let's get to know our demons a little better, not because they are there to destroy us, but more because they are misunderstood, and we have labeled them incorrectly.

Let's stop buying into our hurt, and start living within our happiness.

You are not struggling during this pandemic…you are struggling to see what this pandemic means to you.

It's Thanksgiving this week, and I never talk about appreciation or gratitude since it's so overdone around this time, but I thought this was a good time to change where we are putting our attention.

So while everyone is talking about what sucks in this moment, I am going to remind you why there is something amazing happening with you and to you.

So join me and let's figure out what this hard time in our lives means at this moment together.

P.S. in my last two podcast notes I have a link to a 7 Serenity Checklist daily habits...if you want to join me in having a better day by creating more serene habits, then download the PDF and join me.

Is your worth tied too much to other people's opinions?

During these harder times, it's so easy to blame other people for our struggles and stresses. It's easy to get angry, stressed, or upset and put the responsibility upon others as we say THEY made me feel this way.

In this week's podcast, I talk about why having a higher opinion of yourself and your worth will create more calm in all your relationships, and it will create more peace in all you experience as well.

Last week I gave out a free PDF as a thank you for listeners for the 7 habits of Serenity and challenged us to see how we can check off these 7 habits each day to have more serenity.

What if the fear that has kept you from doing what you truly want wasn't what you thought it was?

What if it was just a misunderstanding in your decision-making process?

In this podcast, I talk about behavior change through The Stages of Change, and how your awareness of these stages might be the one thing that has been keeping you back from achieving your goals and dreams.

I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this podcast. Send me an email at [email protected] if you are enjoying the podcast, I would love to hear from you.
