The Sweet Spot Where Transformation Occurs
Welcome to another unscripted episode! Today, I'm sharing some reflections from my recent seven-day meditation retreat. Over the past year and a half, I've felt an intuitive nudge that my growth requires operating at a different frequency than my current patterns. Despite past successes, I sensed the need to let go of my familiar path to reach new levels. During the retreat, I confronted my resistance to the unknown, and as someone who loves planning, this was a major change. I learned to trust stillness, do less, and focus on personal growth to unlock success. Sitting in the unknown involves accepting discomfort, pushing beyond comfort zones, and listening to intuition even when it seems crazy. If you're feeling unstable or unsure, I want to remind you that you're not alone, and I'm on this journey with you. Join me in embracing the unknown, trusting the process, and discovering your most abundant season of growth. In this episode we talk about: - (2:11) How to produce more results through rewiring your current operating patterns - (7:59) The sweet spot where all real breakthroughs happen - (12:35) An exercise for connecting to your higher self to access a deeper knowing - (14:54) Embracing stillness for clarity If you loved today's episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!

The Secret To Shifting Negative Thoughts And Limiting Beliefs
Throughout my season of growth, I've noticed my negative self-sabotaging thoughts resurfacing. Today, I want to share my experience with navigating these micro-aggressions and the ways I'm reframing limiting beliefs from a subconscious level. Negative thoughts are the brain's way of keeping us safe and comfortable, and abruptly replacing long-held limiting beliefs with positive thoughts may not work effectively. Instead, I offer my advice for acknowledging the negative thought with gratitude, slowing its momentum, gradually shifting its direction, and intentionally planting new beliefs. In this episode we talk about: - (4:27) Acknowledging the negative thoughts without judgment - (7:05) Recognizing that thoughts have momentum - (12:38) How to slow down your negative thought patterns - (16:13) Setting realistic expectations for transforming long-lasting limiting beliefs - (17:11) Understanding your protective thoughts and fostering self-compassion If you loved today's episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!

During a recent session, my mentor and I discussed my current personal evolution and came up with some homework. As I think about the women I look up to, I find myself craving their vulnerable stories and nitty-gritty conversations about their growth journeys right as they're happening. So today, I want to invite you into my journey and share a completely unscripted heart-to-heart personal update.
