Have you ever found yourself in a room of highly successful people and thought to yourself, “How did I get here?” Or perhaps look at your partner and wonder why they choose you? Have you ever felt that you were faking it and wondered when the bottom would drop out of the fake façade? Have you ever pretended to be someone you aren’t to fit in? Lastly, do you think of the wins in your life as “dumb luck?”

If so, you may be experiencing imposter syndrome. That’s the bad news. The good news is everyone experiences this from time to time. But, unfortunately, our mental and emotional health are impacted when we live this way 24-7.

So, today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into what imposter syndrome is, its characteristics, how it impacts us, and then we’re talking about flipping the internal conversation to get us out of untrue patterns that easily own us.

Today we are taking a one-on-one deep dive into what inner peace is, what many must let go of to gain it—and it’s probably deeper and different than what you think, and then we’ll take on how to know when you’ve begun to accept inner peace as your baseline center fully.

Find a comfortable position and take a full deep breath. Once you’re settled, close your eyes or soften your gaze and tune into your breath. Notice it without trying to change it. Feel the air move through your nose, finding its way to the base of your lungs and slowly allowing it to slip away with a soft exhale.

Place both hands over your heart and feel the heart space expand. Then, ask yourself: Am I willing to give myself love today as I am?

If you are, offer yourself permission to do just that and release any negative thoughts that may be lingering in your mind.

With your next inhale, fully settle into the words, “I am worthy.” As you let the air go, allow those words to transform into “I am enough.”

Our lives can be easily divided into sections that can be our masters, or we can be the masters of them. Those sections include: spiritual, mental, emotional, physical, and financial.

Many do not realize the financial aspect impacts them on every other level. If we don’t have control over our money, we worry, stress, and often lose sleep.

To go deeper, financial issues rank among the top reasons for relationship failure. And many women stay in abusive relationships because of their fear of money.

That’s why I sat down with the guru of all things money, Allison Baggerly from Inspired Budget. You’ve likely come across her videos on Instagram and TikTok, where she breaks down real people’s budgets. Today, she guides us through her best budgeting advice and how to become the masters of our money once and for all!

So, let’s dive right in…

Nothing gives you emotional freedom, inner peace, and balance, like releasing the outcome of any given moment and practicing non-attachment.

Demi from Berlin, Germany, wrote in and said, “I’m new to your audience as I just found your podcast six weeks ago. In the episodes I’ve listened to, you say our brains are wired to keep us safe. I’ve been thinking about this over the last few weeks and wondered if that is why I always feel I need control over things. I can’t enjoy a night out with friends without a schedule. I have ended relationships with romantic partners because I felt I needed to keep their agendas, which made me feel like I was out of control of how I spent my time. I like everything planned and spelled out. I don’t like the “control freak” label, but I know that’s what I am. So, my first question is: is control a form of safety? And secondly, is there something I can do to stop living this way? I know I make things harder on myself.”

Many live their lives through a background of unhappiness. While they feel okay in most moments, there’s also a general feeling of discontentment, resentment, irritation, and other negative emotions as they go about their daily lives.

While most of these feelings are subconscious thoughts that sound like, “I need or want this to happen before I can be happy or fulfilled,” or “Life is always so hard,” the stories that you tell yourself significantly impacts those background feelings and slowly become the factors that destroy your inner peace until you choose to leave the stories behind.

Today we are taking a one-on-one deep dive into what inner peace is, what many must let go of to gain it—and it’s probably deeper and different than what you think, and then we’ll take on how to know when you’ve begun to accept inner peace as your baseline center fully.

Welcome to Solar plexus chakra balancing meditation, a guided meditation to meet yourself and witness your wholeness through clearing and reclaiming your third chakra. The center of consciousness of being, personal power, self-definition, accomplishment and responsibility, will, and vital energy.

This is a continuation of our balancing charka series.

After the brilliant conversation around Heart Coherence and living a heart-centered life, I wanted to give you the ability to get into coherence yourself. While the technique is simple, this is not something we learn—though we should. Getting into “The Zone” or bringing your attention to your heart rhythm and breath patterns allows us to tap into the heart’s intelligence. And it is so easy to do that after you practice this for just a few minutes each day, you can find coherence within about 60 seconds. In addition, by reaching this state, we release stress and stop draining emotions such as frustration, irritation, anxiety, and anger.

When you are coherent, your thoughts and emotions are balanced, and you experience ease and inner harmony.

As we usher in February, many will begin to focus on the heart, on love. As you may have heard me say, love is an experience that is meant to drive us forward and help increase our overall well-being. What’s below that experience is living a heart-centered life. So, what is a heart-centered life?

It’s a life where we live our daily experiences in true alignment with our values, purpose, inner morality, personal experiences, intuition, and connecting with everything that works for us. Doing so requires that we understand some basic principles.  

That’s why I sat down with Cardiologist and Heart-Centered Living Expert Dr. Madalina Petrescu to help us understand how to live through the heart-center, how to get into coherence, and why we must allow intuitive directives to guide us; we even chat about overall health that impacts the heart, and end with the connections each of us needs to live a healthy, grounded, spiritually connected life.

Kim from Detroit wrote in and said, “Hey girl, I am in an interesting place in my life. My father recently passed away. At his funeral, many of my family members began to ask me about my feelings regarding his passing. He and I had a long history. There was abuse, mental, emotional, and physical. As I got older, we both acted like it didn’t exist so that I could keep him in my life. But as my family has begun to open up more, I am discovering what I remember and what they know do not add up. It’s as if I cannot access it in my memories. However, since that day and many of those conversations, I have noticed my behavior has been different. It’s almost as if I’ve reverted to things I used to do, like needing to prove myself, feeling like I need to be right, and having a hard time keeping my boundaries. I read one of your posts about trauma and how it shows up on Instagram, and now I’m questioning myself. How can we identify if we have unhealed trauma guiding our behaviors?”

We all have ups and downs, and it’s no secret that life throws hard things into our path. After all, why do you think the saying, “Bad things happen to good people,” exists? Yet, when those hard things occur, how we connect to them and how we fix our mindset plays a significant role in the moment and our overall life satisfaction. It also impacts one other major element in our lives. Can you guess what it is?

If you guessed inner peace, you are right.

So, let’s take a one-on-one deep dive into our mindsets and whether or not you play the victim in your daily life. This is an extensive conversation about identifying the small daily behaviors and habits that create the biggest divide between feeling empowered and feeling negatively impacted, I’m handing over the signs that you are living in full victim mode, and of course, we’ll be talking about how to change course from victim to victor.

Welcome to Sacral balancing meditation, a guided meditation to meet yourself and witness your wholeness through clearing and reclaiming your second chakra. The center of developing relationships, self-gratification, creativity, emotions, sexuality, and nurture.

You are taking a journey now inside your mind to meet yourself. A journey that allows you to rebalance the second chakra.  

Relationships are tricky, but with the right tools, any couple can thrive! You’ve likely heard of The Gottman Institute and the pioneering work of therapist John Gottman, one of the world’s leading experts on relationships, teaching therapists and couples how to best show up. With relationships adding or distracting from our own self-love and inner peace, I sat down with Gottman-trained couple’s therapist, author, and expert on love advice, Laura Silverstein, about being vulnerable, communication, the rules of engagement that every couple should know, how to fight fair, and what do if you find yourself parenting your partner!

Our conversation is full of small shifts you can put into practice today to help your relationship grow and be as healthy as possible.

we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into why the brain is always on the lookout for trouble, how to stop being hijacked in hopes of providing a false sense of safety, and we’ll breakdown how to disentangle ourselves from our earliest patterns, wiring, and our triggers.

This big conversation will shed light on why you may be causing yourself more issues than you realize!

The health of your root charka powerfully impacts all of the other chakras. In order to grow spiritually, we must start at the root. In this meditation, we get into the flow of the root charka, clearing it, and reclaiming its openness. This is a journey back home to the soul.

As we focus our attention on resolutions and kicking this year’s tail, I sat down with Britt Frank, the Psychotherapist who literally wrote the book on being stuck in your life to help us see ourselves in a new light. In an open and honest conversation about triggers, feeling emotional stuck, Britt Franks shares the deep lessons she learned from her own “stuckness” from past trauma.

If you want to make this year the best year yet, you first have to identify where you are, what you want, and how you are willing to process it. This conversation kicks off the new year in a way that shows each of us anything is possible once we know where we are.

This episode is not suitable for children.

Let these words ignite the goddess within you. The root of the word goddess means “bright” or “shine.” As women, we tend to underestimate our divine feminine power—at best, we ignore it; at worst, we demonize it. Yet, this light and power within is the energy that creates our life. We have always been meant to harness it, own it, and use it for our greatest good.

Your femininity is your divine superpower. In this moment, we are connecting with and to her, honoring her, and reminding ourselves that the light within us shall never be dimmed again. From now on, I am honoring my truths and affirming my power.

Do you lack balance? Most women do! Today, I am guiding you through creating daily balance through a simple process.

This week we’re talking about purpose, the power of social media, and what it means to be a parent with Laura from @Foster.Parenting.

If you have logged onto Tik Tok or Instagram in the last year, you’ve likely stumbled across one of Laura’s videos where she offers resources to parents around the globe, especially those who are foster parents. What started as a way to fill the gap of resources during the pandemic has turned into a global advocate platform for foster children, parents no matter birth, adopted, or fostering, a place for teachers to learn about trauma outside of the classroom, as well as ways to show up for the children in our communities and homes.

For the first time, a face and voice that millions have watched, fallen in love with, and followed shares her personal story, her why, and her deep desires for the children in her personal care and yours.

Do you struggle with procrastination? What about the lack of motivation? So many do and even identify as procrastinators. This belief can overrun our lives! It can even cause higher levels of stress, anxiety, fear, and a host of other negative feelings. This week we are taking a different approach to procrastination as we examine what these habits are at their roots and how our mindset and thinking patterns are the true culprits. From there, we’re brain hacking our way out of our full stops and onto the path of true motivation in this week’s one-on-one deep dive.

We’ve reached the end of 2022. It’s been a year of MANY things. A year of growth and loss. A year of seeking and change. A year of revolution and finding ourselves to the point where many now ask: what next?

What is next? What would your ideal life look like if you could envision come this time next year? Have you ever taken a moment to clarify what you truly want? Have you taken a moment to break down the five pillars of your life and write a vision list?

From intentionality to a life mission statement to deep diving into what you want to create in the next twelve months, we are setting ourselves up for the most tremendous success possible, which always leads us to deeper self-love and inner peace.
