Woman of Influence

As soon as I received Gabby Bernstein's new book, Happy Days: The Guided Path from Trauma to Profound Freedom and Inner Peace, I couldn't put it down. It took me less than 48 hours to finish (which, considering work and motherhood, is very unusual for me.) Gabby Bernstein is a household name in the spiritual and wellness space. Over the last decade, she has supported people on their spiritual journey. If you know Gabby and her work, you know she doesn't shy away from the deeper connections and conversations.    But this book is unlike anything she's ever written.     She calls it her most important message to date. It would be an understatement to say I am proud of Gabby and the truth and vulnerability she has poured into these pages. This book details her experiences with sexual abuse and trauma as a child for the first time. She also discusses her postpartum depression.   This may already be triggering something deep inside you, but I encourage you to listen to this conversation. Because what unfolds on the other side is a plan for transforming the pain of your past, whatever that may be, into newfound strength and freedom.   You’ll learn:   •  Why most people feel stuck in patterns that make them unhappy—and what to do about it   •  9 transformational, yet untapped, techniques for serenity and genuine happiness—from techniques for “reparenting” yourself to bodywork practices for freeing the stuck energy of past trauma   •  The mindset shift that can do more for you than decades of personal work   •  How to go into the places that scare you—and come away freer than ever before   “This book is my gift to you,” Gabby writes. “It will answer your questions about why you feel blocked, scared, anxious, depressed, or alone, and it will liberate you from the belief system that has kept you small for so long. . . . By taking this path you will become the best version of yourself. You will become new.”   To get your copy of Gabby's new book, Happy Days: The Guided Path from Trauma to Profound Freedom and Inner Peace, click here: https://gabbybernstein.com/happy-days-book/

Welcome back to Part 3 of our 4-part Get What You Want 28 Day Challenge.   During the 28 days, I’ll be walking you through tools that help you LEARN HOW TO OVERCOME BLOCKS, REALIZE WHAT'S POSSIBLE, AND GET WHAT YOU WANT. Now, this challenge also comes with an incredible, free study guide and private Facebook group. If you’d like the study guide or want to join our private group, just go to juliesolomon.net/freegift for your access!   Each week you'll join me here on The Influencer Podcast and inside our member’s only community for a new audio lesson that covers how to get what you want. You will end your 28-day challenge with a full realization of what’s possible for your life so you can get what you want!    The challenge will end on March 1st with an exclusive invite to a free live virtual event experience I’m hosting this summer to take what you want to the next level. I’m also announcing something huge on March 2nd here on the podcast that will not want to miss!   We started with Part 1 of the challenge, which covered what’s holding you back. And last week we covered step 2, "what do you want", which you can recap in Episode 251.   Today with step 3 we are going in with an important key to getting what you want, and that is creating boundaries.   Now this is probably my personal favorite because of how transformational this step is when we learn how to create new boundaries that keep us from abandoning ourselves. We can’t get what we want if we abandon ourselves, and boundaries are the solution.     What You'll Hear: Specific signs that will show you if you need to create healthier boundaries Questions to ask yourself when creating boundaries The initial steps to creating, and honoring, your new boundaries How to advocate for yourself when your boundaries are put in to place   If you want to support through the study guide, join the Facebook group for weekly in-depth discussions with Julie!   Make sure to grab your FREE challenge workbook and join our private community at www.juliesolomon.net/freegift

I’m also announcing something huge on March 2nd here on the podcast that will not want to miss!   Last week we started with Part 1 of the challenge, which covered what’s holding you back. And we went there - if you already have the study guide you know how deep and transformative those questions are. If you want to go and check that out you can, it's episode 250. Today, we are discussing the next step, what do you want. The questions today will be fewer than in Part 1, but still incredibly important and effective.    In order to know what we want,  I think we first need to understand what can block us from what it is we want. We may say we want something, and even work toward it, but there is one big block that keeps most people from actualizing that want - and that is people-pleasing.      What You'll Hear: Are you a people pleaser? How to identify the signs. Why we people please and where it comes from. Ways to overcome the disease to please so you can get what you want. How to unlock and answer the important question - "What do I really want?"   If you want to support through the study guide, join the Facebook group for weekly in-depth discussions with Julie!   Make sure to grab your FREE challenge workbook and join our private community at www.juliesolomon.net/freegift

I'll admit it. The day we recorded this episode of The Influencer Podcast, I was in a funky place. Here's the deal: At the time of this recording, I had just made a mistake and missed something important to me for the second time! I was incredibly embarrassed. I started going down the storyline of how I could have handled things differently. I was blaming myself. I was seeing everything through the lens of fear. I was being very hard on myself and creating a lot of unnecessary pain. I kept saying, "What's wrong with you? How could you let this happen? You should be ashamed of yourself!" ^^ This, my friend, is what I call the misery cycle. It ain't fun. But you can escape this vicious cycle and feel freer than you ever have before. In this live talk, I'll tell you exactly how. But that's not all... I paused and reached for one of my favorite writing practices to use whenever I am hard on myself … and I chose again! I chose to recognize that although this outcome wasn't what I'd hoped for, it was exactly what I needed. It was an opportunity for me to create awareness around my self-criticism and pity, surrender, and be grateful for the new actions and choices I can take. If you tend to be self-critical, intolerant, or hard on yourself, you'll connect to this episode! You'll Hear: Why we are so hard ourselves and how to release the negative self-talk How to stop the "misery spin" and learn what you need to The writing practice called the 3 A's that I use to release guilt and shame How to see every experience as a learning opportunity to get closer to love How to give yourself permission to be imperfect and messy The Questions I leave you with are: What story are you living by? What story do you want to live by this year? Are you underestimating the power of your purpose?

I'll admit it. The day I recorded this episode of The Influencer Podcast, I was scared.   I knew I was going to share something I'd recently discovered about myself that wasn't so pretty.   Here's the deal: Today, I'm walking you through one of my deepest fears...being "found out."    In 2021 I wrote a book. During this time, I had massive discoveries. One was that I had a hard time internalizing my accomplishments. I also discovered I lived with a persistent fear of being exposed as a 'fraud.'   This is also known as imposter syndrome.    I share some examples of this in my life and the research I found that helped me see where my delusions around imposter syndrome were coming from.   But there's more to the story …   This created a domino effect of uncovering truths about my other fears, including perfectionism, comparison, and self-doubt.   I uncovered what this deep-rooted fear was all about: rejection.   I used five tools from this discovery that helped me release this fear and step into a more loving and kind place with myself.   In this episode, you'll hear: The 6 common characteristic's that define imposter syndrome and how they build upon each other The 5 Steps to Releasing Your Fears How to use an "Evidence Lens" to support your inner confidence Ways to trust and care for yourself when you have fear How to use your fear as a pathway to peace Why we fear shame ourselves and how to stop doing it No matter what's going on in your life, you have a choice. It only takes a slight shift in direction to begin to change your life. For more episodes, go to juliesolomon.net/podcast. 

2021 was one of the most challenging years I've had in over a decade, personally, emotionally and spiritually. It also led to many new discoveries and gifts that I hope you find useful as well if you are facing challenging times. What you'll hear: Julie shares some of the hardest parts of her 2021 year and asks if you can relate How Julie used a "resentment list" to let go of challenges holding her back Where Julie was to blame for those resentments The story Julie was telling herself that was keeping her small (are you telling yourself this too?) How Julie used the hard parts as permission to make some big changes in her business and her life Julie shares her 2022 Vision Questions - how to step into your purpose this year
