This is the first episode in a 5-part solo series with Rudi Riekstins, where he unpacks the foundations of true transformation. Drawing from over 26 years of experience coaching high performers and organizations, Rudi introduces the InPowered Method—a proven framework designed to help you shift your inner world to create external results. In this episode, Rudi dives deep into the first pillar of the method: self-awareness. From limiting beliefs and emotional patterns to energetic blockages and inherited programming, he breaks down the seven areas of awareness necessary to create real, lasting change.

If you’ve been doing “some” of the work but still feel stuck, this episode reveals why—and what to do about it.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Self-awareness is the foundation of all lasting transformation
• Limiting beliefs often stem from childhood programming and false narratives
• Your habits, emotions, and energy all reinforce who you are today
• 95% of your actions are unconscious—awareness brings you back into control
• Energetic blockages and inherited beliefs can silently hold you back
• You must choose to be the pilot of your life—not a passenger on autopilot
• The InPowered Method offers a repeatable framework to create true change
