288: Bonus episode: A special invitation that will change your life!!

I can’t MAKE you happy. I can’t MAKE you wealthy.  I can’t MAKE you healthy.  Only you can truly do this.  What I can do is show you the way and guide you on a path that will profoundly alter your destiny.  As a child, I’ve witnessed many miracles.  My father was known as the “Miracle man of Africa”.  I saw my father restore eyesight to the blind and heal those unable to walk.  People have often asked me if I have any of my father’s healing abilities. I always decline to answer. However, many people claim to have experienced miracles in their lives when they worked with me.  I started coaching people 22 years ago, with a sincere intention to transform lives. I’m privileged to have impacted hundreds of thousands directly and millions indirectly, through my videos, online courses, and my two bestselling books.  I won’t BS you and tell you that healing is easy. That all you need to do is think positive, recite nice affirmations, listen to a guided meditation, do a cacao ceremony, do a little breathwork, and then your life will miraculously change.  It’s not true.  Here’s the truth- It will take work.  Healing your childhood traumas.  Clearing your generational patterns.  Shifting your subconscious limiting beliefs.  Letting go of playing small and hiding.  Releasing old fears. Building a truly fulfilling life of your dreams.  Living your purpose and making an impact in the world. It takes serious commitment but trust me the level of freedom on the other side is so worth it.  I know this because not only have I done the work in my own life but have helped individuals from all walks of life for TWO decades now.  Some would say that perhaps my most life-changing process has been my 12 day Boundless Bliss journey in Bali.  Earlier this year I announced that this was the final year I would be offering The Boundless Bliss: The Bali Breakthrough Experience.  It’s true. So, if you are someone who feels ready for the next level of your life.  If you feel a deep knowing that you are here for a big purpose and are ready to live it now. If you know that you are ready to breakthrough whatever it is that has held you back from living your full potential. If you have felt a stirring in your soul and have been thinking about this Boundless Bliss journey with me for awhile now… Then I invite you to take the first step in creating your own miracle.  Join me for the next journey starting  July 28-August 8.   I promise that if you commit, your life will transform in miraculous ways beyond what you could ever imagine.  If you are ready, the next step is to watch the video and APPLY for an interview at: www.boundlessblissbali.com   You will see the magic begin to happen from that very moment. I look forward to seeing you in Bali. Your time is NOW.

287: How to Stay Motivated in The Face of Life’s Challenges

Today, we will be discussing how to maintain motivation in the face of life’s challenges. By embracing and accepting these challenges, we can make life easier. I firmly believe that difficult experiences are opportunities for growth, and each one presents a chance to discover another dimension of ourselves.  Motivation is the driving force that compels us to take action toward our goals and aspirations. The spark ignites our passion and fuels our effort to accomplish what we desire. Whether personal or professional, motivation is the key factor separating success from failure.  But maintaining motivation can be a challenge as it’s natural to lose it at times. Losing motivation is natural, particularly when facing uncertainties. However, it’s also a chance to gain clarity and reflect on whether our pursuits align with our deepest truths, allowing us to recommit and persevere. Many people quit before they reach a breakthrough. So, if you feel like giving up, remember your whys. Remember why you held on for so long. Remember that many people are relying on you. Recall the inspirations that kept you moving forward, and always remember that a breakdown often precedes a breakthrough. Tune in to this week’s episode for more inspiring insights to keep you motivated! Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 0:53 - Let’s talk about life. 2:51 - How to overcome life’s challenges? 3:59 - What is the #1 question to ask yourself? 5:11 - What is your why? 7:03 - How to figure out your gift? 8:15 - Why it's essential to take one step at a time? 9:10 - My life lessons for dreaming big and running strong. 14:25 - Reasons why quitting is not an option. 15:12 - The process of breakdown and breakthrough. 18:08 - The importance of having focus. 19:52 - Save the date! JULY 2023: Boundless Bliss Bali, a life-changing journey in Bali. In this episode, you will learn about: Motivated vs Unmotivated. Tips for staying motivated.

285: How to Stop Being Over-Responsible for Others

In today’s episode, I discuss how to stop being over-responsible for those you love in your life. Because sometimes, it's hard to distinguish helping from empowering to break the pattern of over-responsibility. Being over-responsible can hinder your loved one’s growth and development, as well as lead to controlling behavior in relationships. The intention to help and protect your loved ones is admirable, but it can sometimes result in enabling rather than empowering them. So, let me share some insights on how to shift from enabling to empowering your loved ones and emphasize the importance of developing your mental, emotional, spiritual, and psychological strength to stand on your own two feet. Love is a commitment to serving someone’s soul, which may require stepping back and allowing them to find their own way. So staying connected to loved ones and being present without feeling the need to constantly fix or do things for them, thus creating space for their personal growth is what matters. Would you like to learn more about expressing true love and caring for your loved ones? Tune in to this week’s episode to discover how you can extend your support in a healthy and effective way.
