There has been a lot of talk in the WHMH community about fear lately. I think so many people came into 2019 ready to really start tackling their goals and strategizing about how to make them happen, but once they started moving, ALL THE THINGS came rushing back in. The excuses, procrastination, anxiety, anger, guilt, frustration, etc. You name it, these nasty feelings started creeping in.

Some of you are quick to recognize that it's just an old pattern wanting to hold onto you and keep you small, while others are letting it take you out. Nope. I'm not going to let that happen this time.

The FASTEST way to bust through this wall is to identify what you must believe about yourself in order to make it happen. These patterns are just there to show you that there is something uncomfortable ahead, and it's a new space. So the only way to build your courage muscle is to change your belief.

Highlights for this episode:

1:00 - The why behind Mindset Monday's

2:21 - How fear hides itself

5:32 - How you can break the walls of your fear

7:27 - Every next level of your life will demand a different you

9:09 - One simple tip to start beating your fear

Tania Jane Moraes-Vaz is a woman of many hats, personally and professionally. Born with an entrepreneurial spirit, Tania knew the 9-5 grind is no place for her free soul. A creative maven and visionary at heart, Tania is a three-times best-selling author, founder of The PCOS Thrive Collective, and Fleeting Moments By Jane Photography & Creative. She also is Developmental and Managing Editor at Golden Brick Road Publishing House, and host of The Holistic Warrior Life Podcast.

Through her wellness journey, she noticed the sheer lack of awareness around women's hormonal health and realized her purpose and passion was to spread PCOS awareness by mentoring and empowering women through 1:1 mentorship and mastermind programs to live a holistic lifestyle through mindset and lifestyle changes.

She has been featured on multiple podcasts, on Radio Mango Toronto, published in Synergy Magazine, and is a featured artist in the 2019 R.A.W Natural Born Artists - Toronto "Reflect" Showcase.

So much of my client work has nothing to do with business.

Creating a strategy is the easy work.

What becomes challenging is the actual expansion. People don't realize that becoming the person who can create successful programs and lasting success requires you to look in every crevice and corner of your life. From your relationship with yourself, your spouse, your friends, your family, your business partners, your past, your vision and pretty much everything in between.

It's not easy work. Behind the tiny squares on Instagram, it's not always pretty work. And some days, like the day this photo was captured, there are lots of tears (https://www.instagram.com/p/BsrW3TUhOOu/). But take it from me, this work is so incredibly worth it.

Facing your fears, facing the gaps in your belief, facing your past can inform your future and you can create from it an empowered and inspiring space. This work is so necessary.

So to all of you who came into 2019 HOT and are now feeling the energetic whiplash, I see you, I'm with you, and more importantly, I want you to keep pushing through. Take it from me, what's on the other side is MAGIC.

Highlights for this episode:

1:41 - Be aware when you say you're ready to up level

3:03 - Look your old patterns in the eye and engage!

4:12 - (A special guest)

4:34 - Questions to ask yourself to engage the hard
