Is it hard for you to make a decision?

Do you get caught up in which way to go, hemming and hawing until the last second — and then sometimes make a snap judgment you later regret? Do you fuss and worry and feel guilty during and after a decision is made?

Believe me, I’ve done all of the above, but it doesn’t have to be this way!

There are two culprits who are responsible for this scenario, and you’re probably allowing both of them to live rent-free inside your head. They are The Perfectionist and The Kindergartner, and when left unchecked, these two troublemakers can be a real nuisance.

In this episode, I share how you can work with the Kindergartner and Perfectionist to make decisions that are aligned to your highest and best — all while following a simple structure that will speed up the process so you can make more informed and aligned decisions, faster than ever before.

The process:
1. Decide
2. Take Action
3. Reflect (get self feedback)
4. Repeat

Are you hitting road blocks on your self development journey? Maybe you make some progress, but then it seems like you hit an invisible brick wall?

Misty Springer is on the podcast today to help give some understanding as to why this is happening, and what you can do about it.

As a life coach who specializes in transformational embodiment work, Misty helps people work with their mind, their heart, and their bodies to create real and lasting change. After all, when you access your mind, you're only accessing 20% of your transformational power, while 80% of it happens through your body and our heart.

Misty is a dear friend I've met along my own breathwork, coaching, and embodiment journey, and she has deeply supported me in following my own breadcrumbs of YES. I hope you enjoy this episode, because I know she can do the same for you, too!

Listen to this episode to hear:

• Why aligning your heart, mind, and body is the biggest shift you can make, no matter your current goal or challenge
• Why tapping into your feminine gifts is one of the most powerful things you can do
• How getting out of your head and into your body can help you move past the invisible brick walls you keep hitting on your journey 

MEET MISTY SPRINGER
Misty is part Life Coach and part transformation artist who helps her clients release limiting beliefs, own their purpose, and activate their potential to show up as powerful creators in their life and business. Her program empowers women to release limiting beliefs and harness the power of their mind, body, and heart to show up confident and at peace in their purpose, body, and relationships.

Do you ever find yourself crippled with doubt? Unable to make a decision or move forward because you can't muster the courage?

If this is true for you, please have some compassion for yourself.

Doubt is a massive tether. It's a strong protective mechanism, intended to keep you from things that could hurt you. The problem is, doubt is often not as necessary as it thinks it is.

So, how do you conquer doubt?

When faced with doubt while trying to move forward or manifest something into their lives, people will often default to "hoping it will happen."

This does not work.

Hope does have enough gusto to yank the tether of doubt. It's like trying to lift a basket with a single birthday balloon. So, what  WILL yank the tether of doubt up and out of the ground? BELIEF.

The shift that  happens in the human body when we switch from the disempowered feeling of hope to full-bodied belief is one of the most powerful things on Earth. Belief is like a giant hot air balloon that will lift you up into the sky, soaring to uncharted and amazing places.

So, next time you're beginning to doubt that there's something you can do, have, or manifest - remember that hope is not the answer.

When it comes to conquering doubt, belief is the way.


Try the Feeling Belief exercise from this episode:

1. Think of something you want
2. Imagine what it will feel like to have that thing
3. Notice the feelings you feel in your body when you feel it
4. Allow yourself to really feel those feelings
5. Repeat regularly!

Do you feel like your desires are selfish? Or maybe you even struggle clearly see what your desires are?

This is so much more normal than you think! Pascale Cook-Fernandes is on the podcast today to share why selfishness is the key to helping us find clarity of purpose, desires, and ultimately, our path to fulfillment.

We talk about how, as women, we give ourselves away to other people, and how that sense of belonging to others can leave us feeling lost – almost like we don't even know who we are. When it comes to finding meaningful work, a job we love, a business that thrives, or fulfilling relationships, this lack of knowing ourselves is detrimental to our happiness.

Pascale tells us why coming into resonance with our true selves is the key to finding clarity and joy on our paths, and how loving is the ultimate way.


Listen to this episode to hear:

• Why being SELF-ish is essential for your ability to show up for others
• Why women give their power away, and how to take it back
• How energy work can help you find the  clarity you're seeking
• How to make decisions that are aligned to you

Meet Pascale Cook-Fernandes
Pascale Cook-Fernandes supports women to find their true happiness from within, so they can cultivate a truly happy life they love!

She is owner and Happiness Coach at Women Finding Clarity, and host of The Happiness Workshop podcast. 

She knows that happiness cannot be found in the external, that’s why Pascale has used her experiences as a teacher, Reiki Master and happiness coach to create her signature programs, Jumpstart Your Joy and The Happiness Workshop.

When she’s not supporting other women to find their own clarity, Pascale can be found collecting beach treasures on the beaches of Cape Cod, and spending time with her husband and three children.

Do you feel tethered to a life that doesn't light you up?

This feeling is so dang normal. And yet, it's exactly what's keeping you stuck.

That's because the more time you spend focused on things you don't want, the more you are digging yourself into the discomfort of your current experience.

It is SO possible for you to soar into the most amazing possibilities and to leave this current, tethered reality behind. And it happens the moment you start looking for solutions instead of problems.

Like Mr. Worldwide, Mr. 305, Miami boy till the day he dies, yes Pitbull himself says, "You've gotta go from a negative to a positive."

And this happens by shifting your focus away from the stuckness and onto what lights you up. As you shift that focus, you magically unleash your gifts, and share your sparkly, creative magic with the world.

You get to fly.
There is so much possible for you.
And yet, you're keeping yourself uncomfortable and stuck in the tethers.

Take your focus away from the tethers and put it onto the joy. Stop spending your focus, attention, and time on things you've outgrown, things you've fallen out of love with, things that aren't supporting you to expand into your highest and best. You do not create from this space!

Shift your energy into the things that light you up.

This is how you intentionally craft a life where you step into the most amazing possibilities that you couldn't possibly imagine for yourself.

Complete the activity from this episode:

1. List 5 things you love to do, things that light you up
2. Write down the feelings you experience while doing each of those things
3. Notice overlap and whittle these feelings to a small list of 5-7
4. Focus on feeling each of these feelings every day
5. Watch the tethers fall away

How would your life be different if you gave yourself permission to pursue your ideas and do more of what you love?

How do you heal from burnout? And what is sending you into burnout anyway?

If you’ve experienced burnout or are feeling it now, you probably know it. Logically, you understand the stress your mind and body are feeling, you’ve probably googled all the symptoms and solutions, maybe you’ve even tried some of then suggestions…and yet — it persists.

Truth is — It’s really hard to pull yourself out of that snake pit, especially when we live in a society that is designed to burn people out!

But there is good news. 

In this episode, I share the surprising things that are leading to burnout forms on many of us, and the ways in which we are actually incredibly empowered to do something about it.

Let’s talk about fear. But not your average fears — those sneaky, sneaky snake fears that like to disguise themselves as bad habits.

While you may know that you want to usher in a magical, majestic life filled with cool accomplishments and freedom and passion and impact and love, fear does not want that. Fear wants THIS life. 

Yeah, that current life (which is still pretty magical and majestic when we stop paying attention to fear, but that’s for another episode!!)

In THIS episode, I’m going to break down 5 behaviors that you might not realize are fear-based. If you resonate with these, they’re stopping you from something juicy. So listen up to this episode, if you see yourself doing any of them:

• Procrastinating or putting things off
• Obsessive learning, rarely doing
• Jealousy or self-pity
• Not enough time
• Asking everyone for advice, and nothing helps you gain clarity

Sneaky, sneaky snakes. Always remember that you cannot fully conquer these fears from the mind and belief work. They’re living in your body, and you do need both. 🤍 I’ll follow up on this episode with some somatic tools you can use to release fear!

This episode is a Thursday Thread, pulled from the previous episode featuring Kela Rose. Thank you to Jeannelle Benek, her son Paxton, and his squeaky stuffed cat Stripey for the jingle played in this episode!
