    1039 | Finding the Path to Modern Consciousness Stacie Shifflett

    In this episode, Marsha speaks with Stacie Shifflett. At first glance, Stacie might look like any other accomplished woman well over 60. But behind those glasses and soft smile is a powerhouse who's acquired a $50 million software company with no cash upfront, implemented the first desktop computers for a massive U.S. government agency and became a sought-after federal procurement expert with no formal training, owned a construction company, worked in hospitality, and raised a herd of llamas for 12 years in rural America. Stacie is the queen of reinvention. After her 28-year marriage ended, she embarked on a spiritual journey that led to the creation of Modern Consciousness® and her Amazon bestselling book, Treasure Map to Joy™. With a practical, down-to-earth approach, Stacie guides people through structured self-discovery to chart their own path to joy. She doesn't tell people what to do—she helps them find the answers within through deep questions wrapped in compassion and curiosity. Her superpower? Creating order from chaos and helping people truly understand themselves.

    1038 | The Real Reason My Business Grew 9xs

    This episode explores how your subconscious beliefs about money shape the results you create in your business and life. Marsha shares the inner work that led to significant business growth, revealing that the biggest transformation didn't come from working harder—it came from changing the stories she believed about money, success, and what was possible. She reflects on how old financial beliefs can quietly limit our capacity to receive, grow, and lead, and why lasting abundance begins with identity, not strategy. This episode invites listeners to examine their own relationship with money and discover how shifting subconscious beliefs can create sustainable success without sacrificing health, relationships, or fulfillment.

    This episode explores how to stay grounded when life gets loud. Marsha shares how to navigate seasons of uncertainty, stress, and competing demands without losing sight of your vision or yourself. Drawing from her own experiences, she reflects on the importance of trusting your intuition, understanding your unique wiring, asking for support, and prioritizing self-care during life's most challenging moments.

    1034 | Expansion Is Not What You Think It Is

    This episode explores the truth about expansion and why growth is often far more uncomfortable than people talk about online. Marsha shares her personal journey of navigating business growth, new opportunities, family challenges, health concerns, and leadership responsibilities all at the same time. She reflects on the reality that expansion is not simply about achieving more—it is about increasing your capacity to hold more. As new levels of success emerge, old fears, doubts, and patterns often resurface, creating a powerful opportunity for growth and self-awareness. Through honest storytelling and reflection, Marsha reminds listeners that expansion is not about doing everything alone. It requires support, self-advocacy, and the willingness to embrace both the joy and the discomfort that come with becoming the person capable of holding their next level.

    1033 | You’re Already Her with Alicia Arlene

    In this episode, Marsha is speaking with Alicia Arlene, a self-love and confidence mentor for women and the author of the upcoming book, You’re Already Her. After losing her mother as a teenager, Alicia spent many years believing her life would always be shaped by self-doubt, low self-worth, and the quiet feeling of being “behind” everyone else. She dropped out of high school, struggled to trust herself, and never believed she was capable of building a life that felt good inside or amounted to anything. Everything shifted when she recognized that confidence and clarity were not prerequisites for change. The turning point came when she chose to move forward before she felt ready, learning to rebuild her self-trust, identity, and belief in what was possible. Today, Alicia helps women untangle second-guessing, stabilize their confidence, and develop the inner foundation required to hold growth, success, and a life that genuinely feels good. Her work blends lived experience with grounded, real-world insight into self-trust and personal transformation. Chapters: [03:58] - Alicia's Journey to Self-Love and Confidence [14:31] - Finding Your Authentic Voice on Social Media [21:40] - The Journey to Self-Discovery and Empowerment [27:26] - Moving Forward: The Journey of Self-Discovery [35:50] - Permission to Build Your Own Path [39:10] - Overcoming Feelings of Being Stuck Connect with Alicia: Website: www.aliciaarlene.com Podcast Guest’s Email: aliciaarlene@outlook.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/herinnerglo/ Pre-Order Alicia’s Book: https://www.aliciaarlene.com/yourealreadyher Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster LOCKED IN: https://www.heart-wiredceo.com/locked-in OUTSPOKEN August Cohort: https://www.marshavanw.com/nlp UNBOTHERED Mastermind: https://www.marshavanw.com/offers/w8WVE3Pa Write Your Damn Book Program: https://www.marshavanw.com/writenow OUTSPOKEN Publishing: https://www.outspokenpublishing.com Tickets for Heart-Wired CEO Live https://www.heart-wiredceo.com/live Unbothered Mind Podcast https://www.marshavanw.com/unbotheredmindpodcast Download FREE “You Are Supported” Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle HERE Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in March 2025) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

    1032 | The Foundation of Belief and How to Use it For Yourself

    This episode explores why belief is the foundation of every result you create. Marsha challenges the common idea that confidence comes after success, sharing that belief instead must come first. While hard work matters, it cannot override a subconscious mind that doubts what is possible. Using the powerful story of her husband Brad's journey as an Olympic lifter, Marsha illustrates how belief, identity, and the language we use shape our outcomes long before results appear. She invites listeners to examine whether their thoughts and words are aligned with the future they want to create and reminds them that success begins with believing it is possible.
