    How to Stop Self-Sabotage: Breaking Your Capacity Ceiling

    Ep. 397: Have you ever felt like you were finally about to break through to that next level of success, only to find yourself suddenly distracted, exhausted, or picking fights with your partner? You have the strategy, you’ve done the mindset work, and you know exactly what needs to be done. But the closer you get to that revenue goal or program launch, the more you start to drag your feet. In this episode, Teri Holland dives deep into the Capacity Ceiling. Using principles of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), she explains why your nervous system might actually perceive your growth as a physical threat—and how to retrain your body to feel safe while you grow. Inside the Episode: The "Internal Thermostat": How your unconscious mind prioritizes familiarity over happiness or wealth. The T.O.T.E. Model: A breakdown of the "Test-Operate-Test-Exit" loop and why most entrepreneurs get stuck in a permanent state of "Operate." The 3 Pillars of the Capacity Ceiling: Visibility: The primal fear of being seen and judged. Responsibility: The dread of the "weight" that comes with a bigger business. Worthiness: Why your body can feel "allergic" to higher levels of wealth. Expansion Over Effort: Why "pushing through" leads to burnout and what to do instead. 3 Steps to Expand Your Container: From naming the feeling to micro-dosing success through embodiment.

  2. Why Resolutions Fail and How to Set Identity-Based Goals

    Why Resolutions Fail and How to Set Identity-Based Goals

    Ep. 396: In the first episode of 2026, host Teri Holland explains why willpower is unreliable and how to partner with your unconscious mind to achieve your goals. Instead of setting "wishes," learn how to define real changes through identity-level shifts and nervous system safety. Key Takeaways: Identity Over Outcomes: You cannot outperform your self-image. Learn how to level up who you are to match what you want to achieve. Safety First: If a goal triggers a threat response (procrastination), it’s too big. Teri shares how to scale down until your body feels grounded and clear. Build Structure, Not Pressure: Motivation is fleeting; routines are mechanical. Discover "habit anchoring" to make your new behaviors automatic. The Smallest Action: Use the "minimum viable action" strategy to keep promises to yourself even when resistance shows up. Reflection Questions from the Show: Which resolution have you been setting on repeat? What identity is this goal asking you to step into? What is one action you can take today that feels doable and not dramatic? Connect with Teri: Website: www.teriholland.ca Ready for deeper work?

    Why Your Friends and Family Don't Take Your Business Seriously

    Ep. 395: Why don’t friends and family take you seriously while strangers support your business and personal growth? In this episode of Success in Mind, we break down the psychology behind why the people closest to you don’t support you — and why this is completely normal for entrepreneurs and high performers. If you’re an entrepreneur, coach, creator, or business owner, this episode explains the psychology behind why the people closest to you don’t take you seriously — and why this dynamic is far more common than anyone talks about. In this episode of Success in Mind, we break down: Why strangers are often more supportive than friends and family The psychology of Prophet in Your Own Land Syndrome How familiarity kills perceived authority Why your growth threatens people in your inner circle (even if they love you) Why online validation feels stronger than real-life support Why friends don’t support your business — and what to do instead How to stop seeking validation from the wrong people The mindset shift every high performer needs to keep moving forward This episode is especially relevant if you’ve ever thought: “Why don’t my friends support my business?” “Why does my family not take me seriously?” “Why do strangers believe in me more than people I know?” “Why does my success feel uncomfortable around people close to me?” You’re not imagining it — and you’re not doing anything wrong. This episode will help you detach from misplaced expectations, understand the psychology behind being undervalued by your inner circle, and refocus your energy on the people who are actually ready to see you. 🎧 Listen now if you’re building something bigger than your past — and learning to trust your future.

    The Energy of Enough: How Self-Worth Shapes Your Success

    Ep. 392: In this episode of Success in Mind, Teri Holland discusses the transformative power of shifting from a mindset of scarcity to one of abundance. She emphasizes that true success is not about doing more but about embodying the energy of 'enough.'

The conversation provides actionable steps for listeners to attract opportunities and success by changing their internal beliefs and energy. Takeaways Real power comes from energy, not effort. You get what you believe you deserve. Living in the frequency of not enough creates scarcity. Regulating your nervous system is essential for manifestation.
