Don't Wait For Your Wake Up Call!

Melissa Deally

As an Integrative Health Practitioner I have come to realize that we simply haven't been taught how to optimize our health, and that the average person has habits that are negatively impacting their health, due to this lack of knowledge, through no fault of their own. Public health and our school system simply don't teach us enough about nutrition, sleep, stress, gut health or how interconnected our bodies are! Modern life has us more sleep deprived, stressed out and the sickest ever, and I believe it is time to bring this education to you, so that you CAN be empowered in your health and you can then make the right choices for you and your family. The choices you make today impact your future 1 year, 5 years, 10 years + from now. It is never too early to start looking after your health, as Health is your TRUE wealth....without it what do you have? I use this podcast to support my passion project - non-profit, Girls Matter (www.girlsmatter.ca), breaking the poverty cycle 1 girl, 1 family, 1 village at a time. The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn’t free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her own children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.

    Breath, Belief & Beyond: Rewriting Reality From the Inside Out | Ep 262

    In this episode, Andrew shares his personal transformation—moving through trauma, addiction, and a deeply reactive identity shaped by his childhood and years working in the oil and gas industry. Through journaling, breath work, and hypnosis-based tools, he began rewiring old survival patterns and reclaiming his sense of choice and freedom. 🧠 We dive into why willpower alone isn’t enough, and how the unconscious mind quietly runs our habits, behaviors, and reality—until we address the root. 🌬️ Andrew also shares a simple breathing technique to instantly calm the nervous system, plus insights on regulation practices like cold exposure. 🌌 The conversation expands into past lives, karma, and Quantum Healing—revealing how unresolved emotional patterns can carry across lifetimes and even manifest physically. 🎮 We close with a powerful reframe: life isn’t meant to be a struggle—it’s a journey meant to be lived with presence, self-love, and curiosity. 👉 If you’re ready to shift patterns at the deepest level, this episode is a must-listen 🎧 Buy Andrew’s book: “The Enemy Within: Fear as Our Greatest Opponent” here: https://www.amazon.com/Enemy-Within-Fear-Greatest-Opponent/dp/1835563333/ref=sr_1_1?crid=183BTLCVPQQFR&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Yd32xtfZQfNzR0LyBx9W56fjvDChhIMcG0zUsY8peKc.NLpibFhpxVWb238zZwkkcM1Nn79pJVbvq7qUZX_4J9s&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+enemy+within+fear+as+our+greatest+opponent&qid=1752195494&sprefix=%2Caps%2C183&sr=8-1 Offers: Our Book (episode 249) - Empowered: The Journey From Victim Island To Solution City: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1989849776?psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp Quantum Life Mastery School: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/quantum-life-mastery-school Introduction video about Girls Matter: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R3-xqzJLZW14om1PhFClcU_oRSZ8zgip/view The Light Circle Membership: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/thelightcircle-aligned-core Meet Your Unconscious Mind Workshop: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/um FREE 7 Day Trial: NuCalm Products to recalibrate your nervous system / improve your sleep:: https://nucalm.com Use my promo code at checkout: YGHJ to get 15% off your monthly subscription, every month. Episode Summary:Andrew's background and transformation @ 00:00Andrew shares his journey of overcoming trauma, addiction, and a victim mindset through tools like journaling, breath work, and hypnosis-based methods. He discusses how he developed an identity around being defensive and reactive from his experiences in the oil and gas industry, and how he has worked to shift that programming. The power of the unconscious mind @ 03:35Andrew explains how the unconscious mind and habitual patterns can be more powerful than willpower alone. He emphasizes the importance of addressing the root causes and underlying trauma, rather than just managing symptoms. The discussion covers how the unconscious mind creates our reality and the role of choice in breaking free of unhealthy patterns. Breath work and nervous system regulation @ 09:28Andrew shares a simple 4-8 breathing technique that can quickly calm the nervous system and shift one's state. He discusses the science behind how this technique engages the parasympathetic system and the benefits of practices like cold plunges for regulating the body. Past life exploration and karma @ 31:29Andrew explains his approach of combining NLP and Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT) to help clients explore past lives and understand the karmic lessons they are working through. He shares an example of a client who experienced physical healing after addressing unprocessed emotions from a past life. Compassion, forgiveness, and the nature of reality @ 37:34The discussion explores the concept that we choose our life experiences and the people we encounter in order to learn specific lessons, such as forgiveness. Andrew shares how understanding his own past lives has given him more empathy and a shifted perspective on the darkness in the world. Closing thoughts and next steps @ 40:06Andrew emphasizes the importance of making life a "fun game" rather than a struggle, and encourages listeners to focus on self-care, self-love, and living life to the fullest. He provides information on how to connect with him further through his website and social media. About the Guest: Andrew Wilson is a practitioner focused on fear, pressure, and emotional reactivity.

    What happens when outward success no longer matches your inner truth? 💫 In this episode, Carolyn Cooper shares her bold “vision quest” moment—quitting her job, selling her house, and traveling Europe to rediscover herself—and how it sparked a life devoted to helping women heal burnout and self-abandonment. Together, Carolyn and Melissa dive into why so many high-achieving women put themselves last, and how self-care, self-love, and radical honesty become gateways to deeper peace and purpose 🌿. Carolyn also breaks down her powerful AIM High Method—Truth, Transmutation, and Transmission—and opens the door to her daily rituals, including Magnified Healing, that help her stay grounded, aligned, and impactful. If you’re craving clarity, calm, and a reconnection with your authentic self, this conversation is an invitation to listen inward—and rise above the line 🔥🎧 Gift: 21 Day Above the Line Living: https://www.theinspiredconnection.ca/21days Are you ready to rise above old limitations and ignite your purpose with love at the center?

Episode Summary:Carolyn's journey of self-discovery @ 00:00Carolyn shares her story of being a driven, high-achieving woman who felt something was missing despite her outward success. She describes quitting her job, selling her house, and traveling to Europe on a "vision quest" at age 30, which helped her start listening to her inner voice and trusting herself more. This led her to start her own consulting business and eventually focus on supporting women who are struggling with burnout and self-abandonment. The importance of self-care and self-love @ 05:15Carolyn and Melissa discuss how women are often programmed to prioritize everyone else's needs over their own, leading to depletion and loss of identity. They emphasize the importance of self-care, self-compassion, and honoring one's authentic self as the path to greater peace, purpose, and impact. Carolyn's AIM High Method @ 16:55Carolyn outlines the three phases of her AIM High Method: 1) Truth - honestly examining one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; 2) Transmutation - going through a process of inner transformation and aligning with one's true self; and 3) Transmission - living from a place of grounded, authentic presence and using that to positively impact the world. Carolyn's morning routine and Magnified Healing @ 39:43Carolyn shares details of her morning ritual, including journaling, voice work, and the practice of Magnified Healing, which she says has been transformative for her and allows her to connect with higher realms and hold sacred space for healing. She emphasizes the importance of small, consistent daily practices in creating lasting change. Carolyn's invitation and final words @ 51:34Carolyn encourages the audience to have hope, trust their inner wisdom, and take steps to honor and reclaim their authentic selves. She offers a 21-day "Above the Line Living" audio gift and invites listeners to connect with her further through her website, social media, and upcoming challenges. About the Guest: Carolyn Cooper is a seasoned guide and mentor for high-capacity women whose outer success no longer matches their inner truth. Over four decades, she has walked beside leaders, healers, and visionaries who are done performing and ready to come home to who they really are. She created the AIM High Method, a three-phase journey of Truth, Transmutation, and Transmission that helps women release self-abandonment, regulate their leadership, and redesign life and business around their Authentic Identity, so peace, purpose, and impact can expand without costing them their soul.

    This episode is a powerful reminder to listen before life forces the lesson. After 26 years in law enforcement, raising triplets, and living with chronic pain from a hip injury, Kim reached a breaking point on April 10, 2020. That moment became her vow to become her own hero. 💥 Stepping away from a high-stress career created an unexpected breakthrough: within three months, her pain and migraines dramatically reduced. The message was clear—the body cannot heal while living in constant stress. 🧠✨ What followed was a deep dive into the Unconscious Mind. Through NLP, Time Line Therapy®, and Hypnosis training at Amplify Impact Academy, Kim transformed her crisis into a calling. She now guides women out of burnout by rewiring unconscious patterns, offering change that feels faster, lighter, and more permanent. 🌱 Her message is simple and profound: Don’t wait for your wake-up call. Trust the inner nudges, honor your energy, allow yourself to receive, and remember that gratitude is the highest form of receivership. 💖 Gift: The Path Forward Workbook: https://contact.sovereignpathalchemy.com/widget/form/U828AezAx2KCG7qm2EuX Offers: Our Book (episode 249) - Empowered: The Journey From Victim Island To Solution City: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1989849776?psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp Quantum Life Mastery School: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/quantum-life-mastery-school Introduction video about Girls Matter: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R3-xqzJLZW14om1PhFClcU_oRSZ8zgip/view The Light Circle Membership: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/thelightcircle-aligned-core Meet Your Unconscious Mind Workshop: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/um FREE 7 Day Trial: NuCalm Products to recalibrate your nervous system / improve your sleep:: https://nucalm.com Use my promo code at checkout: YGHJ to get 15% off your monthly subscription, every month.

Stress reduction is not optional—it’s foundational. 🚗 Self-care = routine maintenance Treat your body like a valued car: intentional fueling, hydration, and movement are non-negotiable for long-term performance and vitality. 💃 Move with joy Choose movement you love—not what you think you “should” do. Joyful movement supports consistency, confidence, and sustainable health. About the Guest: Midlife doesn’t come with an instruction manual—but it should. Diana Devi blends 35+ years as a clinical pharmacist with the wisdom of an Argentine tango dancer to help women understand what’s really happening in their bodies - and what to do about it. Through a mix of smart science, mindset shifts, and joyful movement, she guides women to feel strong, vibrant, and deeply at home in themselves at this stage of life.

Simple language shifts like “Walk” instead of “Don’t run” create clarity, safety, and cooperation. 💪 Resilience over perfection Failure becomes feedback. Comparison loses its power. Kids learn confidence, curiosity, and self-trust when growth is celebrated over outcomes. 🧠 Personal agency starts early Children can learn they are in charge of their thoughts, emotions, and choices—building emotional sovereignty that lasts a lifetime. 🌱 Health is not genetic destiny Lifestyle choices influence 90–95% of health outcomes through epigenetics, empowering families with real control over wellbeing. ✨ Purpose creates happiness True fulfillment comes from learning, service, mindfulness, and living in alignment with one’s mission. Happiness is an inside job.

Melissa offers functional medicine lab testing that helps you “see inside” to know exactly what is going on, and then provides a personalized wellness protocol using natural herbs and supplements. Melissa’s business is 100% virtual – the lab tests are mailed directly to your home and she specializes in holding your hand and guiding the way to healing so that you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.

Episode Summary:Key TakeawaysPost-Divorce Void: After high-conflict divorces, clients face a void and carry limiting beliefs. NLP tools provide a fast, effective way to clear this baggage and define a new identity.Unconscious Reprogramming: Time Line Therapy® and values alignment directly reprogram the unconscious mind (90% of the mind), which is faster and more effective than conscious effort (10%).Strategic Client Support: Mardi introduces NLP concepts during divorce proceedings to empower clients, however reserves the full "breakthrough" work for after finalization to protect confidentiality from legal discovery."Divorce Reset" Program: Mardi's post-divorce package uses Time Line Therapy® to clear the past, values alignment to define the future, and hypnotherapy to install positive suggestions. The Post-Divorce ChallengeClients in high-conflict divorces often feel like they are "putting on armor" daily.Finalization can leave a void and a "who am I now?" identity crisis.This void is filled with "negative goop" (limiting beliefs, emotions) that must be cleared to move forward. NLP & Timeline Therapy as a SolutionMardi's new certifications (NLP, Timeline Therapy, Hypnotherapy) provide powerful tools for this transition.Time Line Therapy® is a fast, gentle technique that clears stored negative emotions and limiting decisions from the unconscious mind.It avoids re-traumatizing clients by not requiring them to relive events.Results are immediate → clients report feeling "lighter" and having a "quiet mind." Reprogramming the Unconscious MindThe unconscious mind (90% of the mind) is faster and more powerful than the conscious mind (10%).Linguistic Precision: The unconscious mind doesn't process negatives (e.g., "don't want conflict" is heard as "want conflict"). Reframing thoughts to what is desired is critical.Neuroplasticity: New neural pathways can be created with just three repetitions of a new thought. Values Alignment for a New FutureDivorce can cause personal values to be suppressed.Values Alignment helps clients clarify their top 5 values in key life areas (e.g., relationships, career).Why it works: Shifting a core value creates a ripple effect, automatically changing related beliefs and behaviors.Example: A client's business stalled. After aligning her values to prioritize "systems," she immediately connected with a contact who had the exact tool she needed.

    Uncomplicating Wellness: Why You’re Not Broken (The Industry Is) 🌿 | Ep 255

    Jenn Trepeck is a returning guest on this show, (her first episode was #211), and this time we dive into the powerful truths behind Jenn’s new book Uncomplicating Wellness—a fresh, grounded, refreshingly sane approach to health. Jenn breaks down why so many people feel overwhelmed by the wellness industry 🤯—from diet culture to profit-driven food systems—and how this noise disconnects us from our own bodies. ✨ The magic? Her framework empowers you to tune out the chaos, tap into what actually works for you, and build a personalized “care team” so you can thrive with clarity—not confusion. We explore the Bio Stack (fuel, movement, hydration, sleep, stress, connection) and why mastering these foundations unlocks the real power of any biohack. Plus, Jenn shares the mindset shift from self-criticism to momentum-building discipline that creates lasting motivation. 🔥 This conversation will help you redefine wellness from the inside out—simply, sustainably, and without the guilt. 🌱💛 Gift: My bullseye of change download – https://mailchi.mp/4ed8710c81d7/dwfywucjenntrepeck Offers: Our Book (episode 249) - Empowered: The Journey From Victim Island To Solution City: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1989849776?psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp Quantum Life Mastery School: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/quantum-life-mastery-school Introduction video about Girls Matter: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R3-xqzJLZW14om1PhFClcU_oRSZ8zgip/view The Light Circle Membership: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/thelightcircle-aligned-core Meet Your Unconscious Mind Workshop: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/um FREE 7 Day Trial: NuCalm Products to recalibrate your nervous system / improve your sleep:: https://nucalm.com Use my promo code at checkout: YGHJ to get 15% off your monthly subscription, every month. Episode Summary:Key TakeawaysThe Problem: The wellness industry is a "diet culture" driven by misaligned incentives (e.g., "sick care" vs. health, profit-driven food), causing information overload and making people feel broken when plans fail.The Solution: "Uncomplicating Wellness" provides a framework to build a personal "care team" and navigate information, shifting focus from what's wrong to what's right for you.The Method: Master foundational habits—the "bio stack" (fuel, movement, hydration, sleep, stress, connection)—before adding "biohacks" (e.g., supplements). This ensures you build a solid base and can actually feel the incremental benefits.The Mindset: Shift motivation from self-criticism to positive momentum. Use discipline to build momentum, which then creates sustainable motivation. TopicsThe Problem: A Complicated Wellness IndustryThe wellness industry is a "diet culture" driven by misaligned incentives, not personal health.Medical System: A "sick care" model focused on disease states and interventions (pharma, surgery), not preventative nutrition or lifestyle.Food Industry: Profit-driven; uses additives and fewer natural ingredients for shelf life and taste, not health.Weight Loss Industry: Promotes quick fixes (e.g., GLP-1s) as the standard of care, often without addressing root causes.Result → Information Overload: This creates confusion and "anti-nutrient fear-mongering" (e.g., about Brussels sprouts) that distracts from the real issues causing poor health. The Solution: A Framework for Personal Wellness"Uncomplicating Wellness" is a framework for discernment, not a rigid plan.Goal → Personal Definition: Define wellness as having the energy to live your desired life.Core Principle → Bio-Individuality: Recognize that while 99.9% of the human genome is the same, the 0.1% difference is significant. This means:General recommendations (e.g., eat more vegetables) apply to most.Specific implementations (e.g., broccoli works for me, not my mom) must be personalized.span class="ql-ui"...

About

As an Integrative Health Practitioner I have come to realize that we simply haven't been taught how to optimize our health, and that the average person has habits that are negatively impacting their health, due to this lack of knowledge, through no fault of their own. Public health and our school system simply don't teach us enough about nutrition, sleep, stress, gut health or how interconnected our bodies are! Modern life has us more sleep deprived, stressed out and the sickest ever, and I believe it is time to bring this education to you, so that you CAN be empowered in your health and you can then make the right choices for you and your family. The choices you make today impact your future 1 year, 5 years, 10 years + from now. It is never too early to start looking after your health, as Health is your TRUE wealth....without it what do you have? I use this podcast to support my passion project - non-profit, Girls Matter (www.girlsmatter.ca), breaking the poverty cycle 1 girl, 1 family, 1 village at a time. The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn’t free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her own children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.
