Transform + Embody with KC McCormick Çiftçi

There are few things I love more than a really great book. Earlier this year, I shared the five books that contributed to my 2020 uplevel, and since then I've continued reading really phenomenal, life-changing books. The five I'd like to share with you today are all by and/or about women, and they cover a range of topics from creativity to sexuality and then some.

If you've ever thought about making a positive change in your life, you know that one of the very first things that will happen is that the scared part of your brain will immediately start trying to talk you out of it. You'll be bombarded with reasons why this uplevel just doesn't make sense for you, and if you're not aware of what's going on, that might be where the whole thing grinds to a halt. Today, I'm going to share some of the most common reasons not to uplevel that might be on your mind, as well as reasons why they might not be so legit after all.

As a business owner and as a human, "alignment" is one of my favorite words. It's something I strived for in my life and business for a long time, and I feel deeply grateful for every day that I spend in it. I know that being in alignment is one of the best, most "in flow" feelings out there. I'm going to share what I've learned along the way about how to differentiate the feeling of being in alignment from that sneaky imposter, the feeling of trying to convince yourself that you're in alignment.

Since pivoting my business, I've been embracing my identity as a spiritual person who is also a business owner, no longer keeping the "woo woo" side of myself under wraps...or at least not as much as before. As I reflect back on the journey that brought me here, I'd like to share my experience with manifestation, especially the times when I really didn't do it right, and offer you advice on how to stay spiritual without trying to control or micromanage your life.

I'm all about embracing change — it's right there in the name of this channel and in my title as a transformation coach. But I do not promote change for the sake of change, especially if it is motivated by fear or by running away from something. Today, we're going to talk about when not to make a change, and dive down to the roots of the issue.

Having a regular journaling habit is one of the practices I credit with keeping me feeling grounded, stable, and ready for whatever life throws at me. In times of transformation and change, it can be an easy habit to let slip, but it can also be an incredibly powerful habit if we continue to make time for it. Today, I'll share a few tips for journaling through a time of transformation, as well as a few prompts to get you started.

Today's new video is inspired by a lovely subscriber who asked about a previous post, "Embodying Your Future Self: How To Step Into Tomorrow's Identity Today." The question asked was how do we continue to embody that desired identity when the old ways of thinking and being keep coming up -- are there techniques for overcoming those old ways? In response, I am introducing one of my favorite techniques, EFT tapping, which we will use to voice and move past that negative self talk, the limiting beliefs, and the old self-sabotaging habits that come up. This technique uses light tapping on a sequence of acupressure points, and if you're already tuning out because you're feeling skeptical, give it a try. I'll share my own experience moving from extreme doubt to superfan, and I'll guide you through a tailored session just for you.

Have you ever started reading a book or watching a movie, only to find that you had no interest in continuing it – and yet you felt obligated to do just that? To read every single page or watch it until the credits rolled? Have you ever had a similar feeling about a job, a relationship, or an educational path – that feeling that “this might not be right for me, but darn it, it’s too late now to change my mind!” If so, you aren’t alone. This is a phenomenon called the sunk cost fallacy, and it’s exactly what we’ll be talking about today – what it is, and how it could be holding you back from your true potential.

Today, I’m sharing with you my favorite thing (in my opinion, the one thing) that you need if you’re looking to uplevel your life, your business, or any area of your life. Spoiler alert: it’s all about the people that you surround yourself with. Don’t miss my tips for finding the supportive community you need, as well as why it’s so imperative that you find one.

Well, here we are halfway through the first month of the new year...how many of us have already failed at those New Year's resolutions we set a week and a half ago? In my early 20s, I worked in a chocolate shop, and I remember our business would go way down in the new year as people cut chocolate (of all things!) out of their lives, but it would steadily build back up as customers returned, sometimes with slightly guilty looks on their faces as they strayed away from their resolutions. Today, I'll share why a New Year's resolution was never actually the way to achieve your goal and what you can do instead.
