Access to Truth in Times of Lies - EP051

Spend just a few minutes scrolling social media or watching the news and you’ll be bombarded with multiple competing ideas, all advertised as truth. But how do you know if something is true or not? What if you don’t need anyone else to tell you what’s true? What if you have, inside yourself, a lie detector you can activate at any given moment? Today on Women’s Empowerment School, Sylvia is walking us through an exercise for accessing truth in times of lies. She explains why we must get out of fear in order to connect with our inner lie detector, describing how to shift from a state of stress and high-alert to one of groundedness and safety. Sylvia goes on to discuss how our access to truth is not in the intellectual mind but in the body, helping us distinguish how it feels when we focus on something that is true versus an obvious lie. Listen in for insight into why people are more vulnerable to manipulation right now and learn how to activate your own access to truth when presented with contradictory theories. Topics Covered The relationship between fear and the motivation to lie Why we must get out of fear in order to access the truth How to shift from a state of stress and high-alert to one of groundedness and safety How our access to truth is not in the intellectual mind but in the body Sylvia’s exercise for accessing your inner lie detector Close your eyes, breathe and take your attention inward Open your eyes and observe what’s in front of you Look to the right, left, behind you, up and down Focus on something you know is true and distinguish how it feels in your body Focus on something that is obviously not true and feel how your body changes Explore contradictory ideas and ask your body which one is true Why it’s crucial to train yourself to be with uncomfortable feelings Why we’re more vulnerable to manipulation in times of fear Connect with Sylvia Sylvia’s Art + Coaching Website Becker-Hill Women’s Empowerment School WES on Facebook WES Podcast Show Notes Sylvia on Instagram Sylvia on LinkedIn Subscribe to WES on iTunes Subscribe to WES on Google Play Subscribe to WES on Stitcher Email sylvia@becker-hill.com Resources 12 Leadership Powers for Successful Women by Sylvia Becker-Hill Previous Episodes of the WES Podcast Join Sylvia’s Women Rising Community here: www.becker-hill.com/community

The Power of Unconditional Love - EP050

We are in a season of growing conflict, dissonance and even hatred among people. And faced with someone we disagree with, it’s easy to get dragged into a sea of negative emotions—where unconditional love feels entirely out of reach. But what if we DO have the power to choose love, regardless of the circumstances? Today on Women’s Empowerment School, Sylvia is sharing the twelfth chapter of her book, 12 Leadership Powers for Successful Women, ‘The Power of Unconditional Love.’ She weighs in on the patriarchal love-falls-from-the-sky paradigm of love, explaining how it takes the power out of our hands and portrays love as a kind of virus we catch in the right moment. Sylvia then invites us to consider a radically different paradigm, reframing love as a conscious, creative act we CHOOSE and challenging us to love the person in front of us regardless of how we think they make us feel. Listen in for insight around the self-image you must cultivate in order to lead from love and learn how to leverage unconditional love to reap results that feel like magic! Topics Covered What inspired the creation of Sylvia’s book, 12 Leadership Powers for Successful Women The idea that each of us embodies love, peace and freedom at our essence The expectation that we must do what we love to achieve true happiness The love-falls-from-the-sky paradigm that paints love as a virus we catch in the right moment Sylvia’s invitation to reframe love as a conscious, creative act we CHOOSE How to love the person in front of you independent of how you think they make you feel The self-image that gives us the ability to love and lead from love Why widening the gap between external input and our reactions is a prerequisite to unconditional love How leading with unconditional love reaps results that feel like MAGIC Connect with Sylvia Sylvia’s Art + Coaching Website Becker-Hill Women’s Empowerment School WES on Facebook WES Podcast Show Notes Sylvia on Instagram Sylvia on LinkedIn Subscribe to WES on iTunes Subscribe to WES on Google Play Subscribe to WES on Stitcher Email sylvia@becker-hill.com Resources 12 Leadership Powers for Successful Women by Sylvia Becker-Hill Previous Episodes of the WES Podcast Join Sylvia’s Women Rising Community here: www.becker-hill.com/community

Dissection of the Coronavirus – with Neimologist Sharón Lynn Wyeth - EP045

What’s in a name? According to Sharón Lynn Wyeth, our name gives us our contract with the divine in this lifetime. So, what can we learn about our purpose and personality based on the letter combinations in our name? And can we leverage an understanding of neimology to make sense of our experience with the coronavirus? Sharón is the creator of Neimology Science, the study of the placement of letters in a name. In 15 years of research and three years of testing in more than 70 countries, she has evaluated thousands of names and developed an expertise in uncovering an individual’s strengths, challenges and life purpose. Sharón is also the Founder and CEO of Know the Name, the host of Know the Name, Know the Genius in You and the bestselling author of Know the Name, Know the Person; Know the Name, Know the Spirit; and Know the Name, Know How to Connect. Today, Sharón joins Sylvia to explain how she developed an expertise in names and created the science of neimology. She describes how our purpose is written in our birthname, how we choose our own name (and impress it on the person who names us) and how our last name influences who we attract into our lives. Listen in for Sharón’s analysis of the letter combinations in the name ‘coronavirus’ and learn how to apply this understanding to foster security within yourself and deeper connections with others. Topics Covered How Sharón developed an expertise in names + created the science of neimology What differentiates neimology from numerology How our name reveals our contract with the universe in this lifetime How we choose our own name (and impress it on the person who names us) Why the name we go by changes the way we achieve our purpose, not the purpose itself Accepting ALL aspects of a person by using their full birth name Why we attract a different group of people when we change our last name How pronunciation does and does not impact our neimology Sharón’s analysis of the letter combinations in the name ‘coronavirus’ Begins with controlling combination Takes from us what we don’t want to give (i.e.: freedom) Provides great opportunity for growth Eventual shift from fear to love Offers clear vision, truth revealed Affects us all permanently How security within ourselves + our connection to Source is the only security there is Connect with Sharón Know the Name Know the Name, Know the Genius in You Radio Show Connect with Sylvia Becker-Hill Women’s Empowerment School WES on Facebook Women Rising Facebook Group WES Podcast Show Notes Sylvia on Instagram Sylvia on LinkedIn Subscribe to WES on iTunes Subscribe to WES on Google Play Subscribe to WES on Stitcher Resources Know the Name, Know the Person: How a Name Can Predict Thoughts, Feelings and Actions by Sharón Lynn Wyeth Know the Name, Know the Spirit: Discover Your Contract with God in Your Name by Sharón Lynn Wyeth Know the Name, Know How to Connect: How a Name Can Predict Communication Styles by Sharón Lynn Wyeth 12 Leadership Powers for Successful Women by Sylvia Becker-Hill Join Sylvia’s Women Rising Community here: www.becker-hill.com/community.

Leadership During Crises: Self-Empowerment During C-19 Crisis Part 3 - EP044

How are you showing up during the COVID-19 crisis? Are you simply reacting to your thoughts and feelings as they come up? Or are you acting with intention?

Today on Women’s Empowerment School, Sylvia walks us through the three critical aspects of leading through a crisis—presence, intentionality and service.

Sylvia describes the collective grief and loss of freedom we are all experiencing but reminds us that true leadership requires conscious intention and a commitment to our goals—no matter the circumstances. Listen in to understand why service to others is a crucial facet of leading in a crisis and learn what YOU can do to identify and share your much-needed gifts with the world. Topics Covered The three critical aspects of leadership through a crisis Presence Intentionality Service Our tendency to regress or retreat in challenging times The WAVES analogy for relating to our thoughts and emotions Aligning the way we show up with our values, goals and sense of integrity The collective grief and loss of freedom caused by the Coronavirus pandemic Why service to others is a critical facet of leadership Using ‘maybe’ as a tool to mine wisdom from our unconscious mind Sylvia’s journal questions for leading through crises How are you showing up right now?
