School of Self-Image Tonya Leigh

The School of Self-Image's annual membership is currently open for a limited time, and the episode delves into its benefits. Members gain access to various courses, including the newly created SLIM Self-Image program. This program focuses on creating a lasting self-image that supports healthy habits by letting go of what's holding you back. The host and a coach who has successfully used the self-image method to lose weight will teach the program live over eight weeks. Interested individuals can join the annual membership and access the SLIM Self-Image program by visiting schoolofselfimage.com/slim.
The episode's main focus is on using style as a tool to transform one's self-image and ultimately change their identity. Tonya explains that changing how you look at yourself can significantly impact your mindset and overall outlook on life. She encourages listeners to envision how they want to see themselves and how that version of themselves would show up in the world, not just through their style, but also their speech and body language. She shares her own experience of using style to change her identity from a full-time nurse to a successful business owner. She emphasizes that expanding one's self-image can create new possibilities and achieve extraordinary goals. Overall, the episode suggests that transforming one's self-image through mindset, style, and surroundings can be a powerful tool for personal growth and success.
Tonya emphasizes that the word "slim" does not necessarily mean skinny or a certain size, but rather a healthy and confident version of oneself. She also discusses the importance of finding joy and pleasure in life, rather than constantly focusing on dieting and weight loss. Additionally, Tonya mentions that changing one's style and wardrobe can be a helpful tool in reinventing oneself and creating a new identity.

Tonya Leigh has set a goal to assist 5,000 women in creating their "after" and documenting the process. She considers the reviews left by listeners on iTunes as a form of "after" because they share how the podcast has impacted their lives. The host expresses gratitude towards the listeners who have left a review and encourages others who have benefited from the podcast to do the same.
In this episode, the concept of be actions versus outcome actions is discussed in detail. Tonya explains that most people struggle to achieve their goals because they focus solely on the outcome they want, rather than the person they need to become to achieve that goal. She emphasizes the importance of focusing on one's identity or "being" rather than just the outcome or "getting." The host gives examples from her own life, such as struggling with weight loss and money, where she would take outcome actions such as going on a diet or trying to work out, but would ultimately sabotage herself and go back to her old state of being. She realized she needed to focus on becoming the person she wanted to become, rather than just achieving the outcome.  By focusing on 'be actions', the outcome will become effortless, and once the outcome is achieved, it will be easier to sustain because the person's identity has already changed to match what they want.
By focusing on creating small wins and little bits of evidence every day that she is a fit woman, the host is able to shift her focus from the outcome to her self-image. She creates new neural pathways that confirm her new identity, and as a result, her outcomes change. Tonya emphasizes that changing one's identity is the key to achieving desired outcomes, not the other way around.
[00:02:25] Be actions vs. outcome actions.
[00:05:02] Overcoming limiting beliefs.
[00:08:45] Changing identity for effortless outcome.
 
Quotes: 
When I think about myself having a fit body, then who is she? How does she identify? What is her self-image?
We create our extraordinary goal, which is the outcome that we want. But then we look at who do we need to become to achieve that goal, to achieve that outcome.
The reason why the majority of people struggle in achieving their goals is because they are taking action for an outcome versus taking action for a new state of being.
We focus on changing our identity so that the outcome literally becomes effortless.

Quotes: 
Charm means the power of giving delight or arousing admiration to achieve something as if by magic.
Life gives to the giver and takes from the taker.
Live to impress yourself.
Another thing to do if you want to live a charmed life is to unplug from the unattractive.
Charm and complaining don't go together.
But the other beautiful thing about slowing down is that you begin to realize that life can only be as beautiful as you make this moment."

Quotes:
When I think about my future self she always makes time for her family and friends.
My mom did the best with what she had and she really taught me a beautiful lesson that I didn't realize was so important until later when I noticed that a lot of people around me had a lot of fear around using their best and for me I was like this is just what we do.
There was a level of expectation as to how you treated each other and now I realize it's one of the things that I appreciate about the French culture.  I didn't realize it at the time but ma'am and sir come from the French madame and monsieur.  There is a level of civility and respect for one another and how you communicate and how you address people, how you talk and I think that is a beautiful thing. Quite honestly, it's missing in a large portion of our society today.
