Life is Hard...and Other Lies Your Mother Told You

#88: Change is Hard…and Other Lies Your Mother Told You

Life is Hard...and Other Lies Your Mother Told You

Have you ever lost a tooth? Of course! You lost a bunch of them. You were told to put them under your pillow at night while you slept. And instead of freaking out in terror that your own body parts would attack your face in your dreams, you were giddy and hopeful that some mythical, winged creature was going to daintily flit into your bedroom, reach under your head, take that useless hunk of bone, and replace it with cold, hard cash.

It seemed perfectly logical. And you believed it right up until that aha! moment that shattered the illusion. Then the morbid ridiculousness of this bizarre ritual crystallized. You may have felt a bit confused, even betrayed. But you probably also experienced a sense of liberation. Now you knew the truth.

The truth is calmer than lies. The truth isn’t always pretty but it’s always centered. The truth will indeed set you free. Because the truth is empowerment and possibility. It’s objective, not personal. And it’s the only place from where true change and transformation can begin.

In spite of all that, you are lying to yourself right now. About what, I don’t know. But I do know that the lies you tell yourself are likely rooted in the lies you grew up with. And I can confidently say that they are holding you back from fully embracing the life you deserve. That’s right; even though they seem to offer comfort and prizes, those shiny little fairies are actually messing with your happiness.

In this episode, I’m going to provide three steps to obliterate those fairytales from your life once and for all. I’ll share the most powerful way I know to instantly uncover pure truth. And just like when you were a child, while it may sting initially, that pinch transforms into possibilities the moment you let the lies go.

Are you ready to face the endless wonders on the other side of those ugly lies? Listen now because you deserve the beautiful truth.

To Know ME is to Love ME

#87: To Know ME…is to Love ME

To Know ME...is to Love ME

Remember when you were little and someone close to you would tell you how beautiful you were? Or smart, talented, sweet, etc. Maybe you even had a special nickname that lit you up like a fireworks show every time you heard it.

What’s more, you believed it. You allowed yourself to be enveloped in that admiration. And chances are, it manifested in your actions…even shaped your identity. You became more of whatever wonderful aspect of you was highlighted and celebrated by those around you.

It’s also likely that you experienced the polar opposite. Someone in your life – possibly even you – told you that you were lacking, inadequate, or even downright bad in some aspect of your life. And I’d bet that you lived up to that label as well.

Here’s the cold, hard truth: You rise or fall to your own perceptions and expectations, not to objective realities. If you believe you are beautiful, you are. And you will radiate that beauty into the world, regardless of your physical shape or state. If you know you are lovable, you are. Not just to yourself, but to others around you.

So how easy is it to flip a switch and become the person you want to be – to yourself and to the world? The good news is that it’s an elemental skill which you already possess and can summon any time. The challenging news is that it’s a two-way switch and can revert to the off position anytime you allow yourself to become stuck in negativity, stress, or defeat.

In this episode I walk you through 3 powerful exercises guaranteed to instantaneously flex your self-love muscle. And I provide a simple bonus step to provide a constant reminder to yourself that to know you truly is to love you. Listen now because it’s high time to rediscover just how amazingly lovable you really are!

Cupid is a Big Fat Liar, Throw Chocolate at Him!

Here it is, almost Valentine’s Day again. And here I am, single. Like me, you may find yourself feeling a bit lonely, depressed, and unloved when this holiday rolls around. Even if you’re in a relationship, if your sweetheart has gone tart, this holiday can leave you feeling empty, sad, and utterly disappointed.

Let’s face it: It’s hard to feel worthy when you watch the parade of flower deliveries at the office, the sumptuous boxes of chocolates in the hands of the coupled, and glittery cards everywhere, brimming with red hearts and gooey sentiments. Valentine’s Day is like the Memorial Day of the romantically disenfranchised. And all you can do is hunker down and bear it, hoping that next year will be different; next time you’ll find love.

Psych! If you’re walking around feeling that way, you’ve been duped by the chubby little cherub in the diaper with the arrow. Hallmark has kicked your heart and submerged your brain in creamy nougat centers. You’ve lost touch with the indisputable, universal truth that you not only deserve to be loved, you already are!

So why do you get caught up in the madness? Why do the holiday aisles filled with heart-shaped boxes and disturbingly adorable bears knock the stuffing out of you? How can such a blatant campaign for your February dollars suck you dry of hope, confidence, and well-being?

It’s all about truly understanding and embracing love. Not the store-bought substitutions or commercially viable alternatives. But true love. On your terms. The way you need to experience it.

In this episode, we’ll kick Cupid to the curb. I’m giving you 3 powerful exercises that’ll reboot your heart with the myth-busting, expectation-smashing truths about love. And I’ve provided a quiz designed to instantly clarify what love truly means to you. Because when it comes to love, why wait when you can create?

What's Right With You?

#85: What’s RIGHT With You

What's Right With You?

Have you ever lost your keys? Let me paint a picture: You’re running late. One voice in your head is berating you for always loosing your keys. Another voice chimes in and reminds you that you knew this was going to happen. A third voice is muttering manically about how you’ll never find your keys. And yet a fourth voice – this one may even be coming out of your mouth – screams, “What is wrong with you?!?”

So what IS wrong with you? And no, the answer is not multiple personalities. Chances are that the only thing wrong here is that you’re focusing on what’s wrong instead of what’s right.

Let’s rejoin the voices in your head. What if you tune them out or change what they’re telling you for just a minute. How many times have you done just that only to discover that your keys are in your hand?

You attract what you focus on. You know this and yet you may still be focusing on what’s wrong with you….instead of what’s right. But before you start scolding yourself, know this: We ALL do it. And what’s more, we live in a world that encourages it.

Every day you are bombarded with messages and adverts encouraging you to focus on what’s wrong with you. How else can they sell you a solution unless you have a problem? But what if you could reframe that and stop the madness? What if you could approach every day knowing that you’re amazing just the way you are?

In this episode, I’m giving you 3 tips to immediately switch from wrong to right. And I’ve thrown in a powerful bonus tip to instantly up your game. It’s just that easy! Because, as Glenda the Good Witch said, “You’ve always had the power, my dear. You just had to learn it for yourself.”
