    Escaping the Lion's Cage

    Start Your Transformation Now  Are you unknowingly trapped in a mental cage, mistaking endurance for strength? In this episode, Jim Fortin shares a powerful metaphor inspired by a real-life conversation that challenges the way we think about resilience, struggle, and healing. Through the story of James, a man battling cancer, Jim explores the difference between truly healing and simply enduring—and how many of us are doing the latter in our own lives without even realizing it.  Jim dives deep into the concept of the “lion’s cage”—a mental construct where we fight, struggle, and endure without seeking liberation. Whether it’s money, health, or relationships, many people are stuck in survival mode, believing that fighting harder is the path to success. But what if the real answer is learning to let go, rewire your subconscious beliefs, and finally walk out of the cage?  If you’re tired of feeling stuck, fighting the same battles, and not seeing progress, this episode is the wake-up call you need to finally break free.    What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  (01:05) The Story of James and the Lion’s Cage How one man’s battle with illness reveals the difference between surviving and truly healing.  (05:40) The Subconscious Trap of Endurance  Why a “positive mindset” isn’t enough—and how subconscious beliefs silently keep us stuck.  (14:43) Why Fighting Weakens You  Jim unpacks a quote from Mother Teresa to show why resistance only strengthens what we resist.  (16:17) The Real Way Out of the Cage  What it takes to stop running, open up to new possibilities, and break free from mental traps.  (21:42) You Don’t Know What You Think You Know  A humbling and freeing reminder that awareness, not knowledge, is the first step to transformation.  (29:00) The True Price of Freedom  It costs nothing but your willingness to change—and everything if you don’t.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  The lion’s cage is an illusion—one built by years of conditioning, false beliefs, and a refusal to question what you think you know. You may believe you’re strong for enduring, but true strength lies in walking away from the fight altogether. You don’t have to keep running. The moment you realize that your current thoughts, behaviors, and beliefs are the very things keeping you trapped, is the moment you unlock the door. Nothing changes until you change. So, ask yourself: What price are you willing to pay to be free?    Let’s Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn    LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

    Throwback to Ep111: Your Life Is Your Life Because Of You

    Start Your Transformation Now⁠  I KNOW you’ve heard it a bazillion times, you know, something along the lines of “You are the creator of your life,” etc…etc, blah, blah. Well, it’s true and the $64,000 question you should be asking yourself is this: “If it’s true then how come I don’t have everything I want in life?” The reason you don’t have all that you want is because, the conundrum, you are the creator of your life. Better said, you’re full of self-deception, self-illusion and full of mental toxicity…even if you don’t yet recognize it. Being a BEing of consciousness and energy you go through your days absorbing everything you see, hear and experience. And, because you do this, you absorb toxicity and don’t know it. The unfortunate thing is that this toxicity is actually what keeps you from what you want in life. I have to admit, what I’m going to suggest in this episode can be a lifetime growth process for most of us, however, it’s a higher stage of evolution for all of us and it helps you create the life experience you want in this lifetime. Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Your life is your life because of you.

    Abundant Ever After with Cathy Heller

    Start Your Transformation Now  In this powerful conversation, Jim sits down with Cathy Heller—author, speaker, spiritual teacher, and host of the “Abundant Ever After” podcast—to explore how abundance isn’t something we chase; it’s something we receive. Cathy opens up about her journey from emotional hardship and scarcity to spiritual clarity and profound wealth, and how Jewish mysticism, Kabbalah, and deep soul work have helped shape her reality. Together, they share wisdom on tuning into divine energy, healing past wounds, and becoming a vessel for true abundance.  Cathy shares deeply personal stories, including how a spontaneous trip to Jerusalem led her to a rabbi who helped rewire her understanding of purpose and abundance. They discuss the shame we carry around money, why spiritual fulfillment is the true foundation of prosperity, and how being unapologetically authentic can create a ripple effect of healing. If you’ve ever felt “too much” or struggled with your worthiness to receive, this episode offers a transformational perspective.  This conversation is both soulful and practical, reminding us that we’re here not to “fit in,” but to stand out. You’ll walk away feeling empowered to plug into your own divine outlet and reframe how you think about money, self-worth, and your soul’s assignment.  What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  (02:16) Why Cathy Held Back Her Truth at First Cathy explains why she was initially hesitant to talk openly about her beliefs and how leaning into her spiritual roots transformed her voice and work.  (10:00) Her Mystical Experience in Jerusalem That Changed Everything A spontaneous class in the Old City led to years of mentorship and soul expansion—and it completely reshaped Cathy’s life and purpose.  (21:41) Why Abundance Isn’t About Money—It’s About Frequency Cathy shares the real reason she wrote Abundant Ever After and how to “tune” your inner receiver to align with divine abundance.  (34:06) Depression vs. Purpose—A Life-Changing Truth A deeply moving reflection on Cathy’s mother’s depression and what it taught her about how purpose—not happiness—is the antidote to despair.  (48:43) The “Breaker Panel” Metaphor for Receiving More in Life Learn why your nervous system might be short-circuiting your desires—and how to rewire your capacity to receive.  (55:28) What You Can Give, Even When You’re Broke Cathy illustrates that abundance isn’t measured in money—it’s measured in presence, energy, and intention.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Your ability to receive is directly linked to your belief in your own worthiness. As Cathy reminds us, abundance isn’t something “out there”—it’s something you tune into by remembering that your soul is infinite, generous, and already enough. Whether it’s a smile, a compliment, or a moment of true presence, you always have something of value to give—and the more you give, the more you open yourself up to receive. True wealth starts with recognizing the light within and letting it shine.  Mentioned Resources: 📖 Abundant Ever After (Book by Cathy Heller) Connect with her: 🌐 Website 📸 Instagram Let’s Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

    Throwback to EPISODE 41: Are You Being 100% Responsible For Your Life?

    Start Your Transformation Now⁠⁠  You’ve heard it since you were a kid, “Be responsible,” however, have you ever sat with that concept and fully explored its meaning in your own life?Responsibility is a master key in life and what you create is what you’re 100% responsible for creating or not. One of my clients once said, “Wow, when I live from being 100% responsible for my life I feel like I can do anything.” He embodied the characteristic and he 10 X his business growth in 3 years. And, what he did, you can do! In this episode I talk about: [5:55] Where you’ll be next year is 100% contingent on what you’re being responsible for[12:22] To what degree are you responsible for your own personal evolution[14:04] Why blame is victim mentality[16:09] The relationship between success and responsibility[19:05] What victim mentality looks likeAnd, what 100% responsibility looks like. Harry Truman said it best, “The buck stops here,” and when you embody that characteristic and way of BEing, your life will change dramatically.

    Why You Feel So Lost, Complacent or Depressed

    Start Your Transformation Now In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim explores why so many people feel lost, apathetic, or stuck in a fog of complacency and burnout—especially when they’ve been on a path of personal development. He opens up about his own experiences with burnout and depression, then introduces a powerful reframing: these feelings are not failures, but soulful signals calling us to evolve. Jim shares the transformational idea that depression is not just a chemical imbalance or lack of motivation—it’s often the soul refusing to participate in a life it no longer aligns with. He dives into the difference between 3D ego identity and soul identity, the painful but necessary collapse of old egoic patterns, and how ancient wisdom, alignment, and awareness can illuminate the path to joy, meaning, and inner power. If you’re feeling uninspired, burned out, or unsure of your purpose, this episode isn’t just for you—it’s a spiritual wake-up call. Let Jim guide you out of the low-altitude loop of ego and into the elevated space where your soul can finally breathe, lead, and thrive. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: The Real Reason You Feel Burned Out and Apathetic (01:15)Jim reflects on his own experience of hitting an emotional wall and explains why feelings of stagnation are often soul-level invitations to grow. The Illusion of Identity (03:45)Explore how your 3D ego identity masks your true self—and why it’s vital to begin seeing yourself as soul, not just a physical or professional persona. What a Shamanic Death Can Teach Us (12:00)Jim explains the concept of a “shamanic death”—the painful shedding of outdated ego patterns—and how this process mirrors deep personal transformation. Why Depression Isn’t What You Think It Is (17:45)A powerful insight: “Depression is the soul refusing to participate in a life it no longer resonates with.” This shift can change how you view emotional pain. The Collapse of the Ego Mask (21:30)Understand how your old motivations and egoic identities may no longer serve you—and why letting them go can open the door to soulful living. Let the Soul Drive the Bus (26:30)Learn how to recognize what lights you up and let your soul—not your fears or social programming—lead the way in life and work. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway Modern culture rewards the hustle, but it has no patience for the collapse of the old self. The burnout, the boredom, the apathy—they’re not failures. They’re soulful cues, inviting you to stop grinding and start aligning. Don’t let your ego mask keep you stuck in a story that no longer fits. Let your soul breathe. Let it lead. And remember: what lights you up is your soul speaking. Follow it, do it well, and abundance will follow. Let’s Connect: Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?

It’s the act, state, or right of possessing something.YOU OWN YOUR LIFE!

    Ep 394: Kicking the Fear That Stands Between You And What You Really Want In Life

    Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Transform Your Life from the Inside Out podcast, Jim Fortin unpacks the single greatest force holding you back from the life you desire: fear. With powerful personal anecdotes, real coaching insights, and spiritual wisdom, Jim reveals how fear—often disguised as anger, frustration, stress, or inadequacy—secretly drives our choices, limits our growth, and blocks us from abundance and joy.  Jim explains that all negative emotions stem from one source: fear. Whether you're angry in traffic, anxious about money, or afraid of being judged, you're unconsciously making fear-based decisions—and paying the price. Through clear examples and practical tools, Jim teaches how to identify the fear behind your emotions, name it, disassociate from it, and ultimately transcend it.  If you're ready to stop letting fear dictate your life and finally claim the possibilities waiting on the other side, this episode is your guide to taking back your power.  What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  The Hidden Face of Fear (01:15) Jim explains how fear shows up disguised as anger, stress, and frustration—and how recognizing this is the first step to freedom.  The Only Two Emotions That Exist (05:05) Discover why all emotions boil down to either love or fear, and how this awareness can shift your entire decision-making process.  How Inauthenticity Keeps You Stuck (13:30) Learn how avoiding your fear and pretending it isn’t there creates even more suffering—and how to break free by being honest with yourself.  What Fear Has Cost You (26:00) A powerful reflection to uncover how fear has limited your relationships, career, happiness, and personal growth.  How to Transcend Fear, Step by Step (34:40) Jim shares his 4-part strategy to identify, name, disassociate from, and dismantle fear—so it no longer runs your life.  The Bridge Between Fear and Everything You Want (45:20) Hear the powerful metaphor that ties it all together: why walking through fear is the only way to reach the life you’re meant to live.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Everything you want exists on the other side of fear. When you recognize fear for what it truly is—just a thought, just a story—you reclaim your power. Authenticity isn’t weakness; it’s courage in motion. The moment you name your fear, confront it, and refuse to let it define you, you become free. Free to create, free to live, free to be. This episode is your invitation to cross the bridge from fear to freedom—because the life you want is already waiting.  Let’s Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

    Throwback to Ep43: Nothing Works In Your Life Without This

    Start Your Transformation Now⁠  Ever wondered why you’re not getting the results you want in the gym, in your business and perhaps all the areas of your life?There could be many reasons but a huge reason is talked about in this episode, self-integrity. Are you being 100% integral with your word to yourself relative to your desired outcomes? Do you eat the way you say you’ll eat? Do you go to the gym when you say you will go? Do you lead generate for your business like you say you will? Do you do what you say you’ll do when you say you’ll do it? If you just said no to the above questions you’re going to love this episode because it’s all about self-integrity! It’s all about doing what you say you’re going to do when you say you’re going to do it. In this episode I discuss:[2:46] How you can have a 100-500% increase in your productivity when you keep your word to yourself.[7:08] How I used to lie to myself about integrity (and you probably do too).[22:44] How we speak our lives into existence.[23:12] Why not keeping your word affects your self-esteem.And, of course, much much more.Self-Integrity is VITAL to your success in any activity and according to a Harvard business professor who studies it, it’s one of the most over-looked concepts in business and life.When we’re out of self-integrity, nothing works, we keep failing over and over in many areas of life that we think are important to us.Let me rephrase the last paragraph, things work in life but they rarely work the way we want when we’re out of integrity. Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Be 100% impeccable with your word to yourself.
