Grab your free 15 minute consultation here. ————— SHOW NOTES We’ve all heard it: “It’s happening FOR you, not TO you.” And when you’re in the middle of heartbreak, stress, loss or some other life-altering shit? It might be the last thing you want to hear. But what if there’s a reason this frustrating advice sticks around? In this episode, we’re getting into the uncomfortable space between toxic positivity and a genuinely helpful mindset shift — and what it can look like when you’re finally ready to stop carrying the past with you. If you’re a woman working on emotional healing, personal growth, changing your mindset and creating a life that actually feels good to live, grab a drink and get comfy. This one might challenge you. Why good advice can be completely wrong depending on when you hear itThe belief I have about being supported and guided through even the situations I would NEVER chooseSome very personal experiences that changed the way I look at pain, loss and major life changesWhere acceptance fits in when you absolutely do not want to pretend what happened was okayHow to know whether you’re actually ready to look at a painful situation differentlyThe questions I use when I want to stop feeling stuck and start seeing a situation through a new lens————— I’ve got more free resources and goodies here. ————— Come say hi on socials!

    78. Brainwashing yourself to change your life? It works, and it’s safe. The most underrated manifestation tool.

    Come to my FREE workshop Unblock Your Life. Most of us aren’t taught this, and it’s letting your blocks run your life. Stop letting your blocks, doubts and limits keep you from going after what you want in life. Sign up for the free workshop here. ————— SHOW NOTES What if changing your reality could start with something as simple as listening to your own voice? I know it sounds crazy, and I’m literally calling this brainwashing yourself, but hear me out. After struggling with manifestation for about twenty years, I tried something completely different…and the results blew my mind. In this episode of No Thanks, Unsubscribe, we’re talking about manifestation, shifting your beliefs, becoming the version of you who already has what she wants, and why creating your dream life might not need to feel nearly as hard as we’ve been taught to believe. In this episode, we’re getting into: The future-self experiment I started after years of vision boards, visualization and traditional manifestation techniques not giving me the results I wantedWhat happened after I recorded my first brainwashing voice note — including the parts that surprised the hell out of meWhat repetition, conditioning and the things you consume have to do with the beliefs running your lifeThe very different way I’m experimenting with this technique now — and why I think my first attempt was trying to do way too muchHow this little experiment has changed the way I look at manifestation, possibility and the stories we keep telling ourselves about what can happen nextWhy this might be worth trying if you’ve been overthinking your future, working on your self-concept or wondering whether manifestation can actually work for you————— I’ve got more free resources and goodies here. ————— Come say hi on socials!

As a recovering perfectionist, I know exactly how easy it is to spend months—or even years—thinking about the dream instead of actually starting it. In this episode of No Thanks, Unsubscribe, we’re talking about perfectionism, overthinking, fear, motivation, and what happens when you give yourself permission to start messy and figure it out as you go. In this episode, we’re talking about: Why big goals and dreams can leave you feeling overwhelmed before you’ve even startedThe sneaky beliefs that can keep you waiting for the “right” time, more confidence, or more motivationMy own experiences starting a podcast, building a business, setting huge goals, and changing direction along the wayWhat feeling “ready” can actually look like when what you want also feels scaryWhy the people you admire probably didn’t have everything figured out when they beganHow perfectionism can keep you stuck in planning mode while the life you want stays just out of reachA different way to think about starting before you know exactly how everything is going to work————— I’ve got more free resources and goodies here. ————— Come say hi on socials!

Join here. ————— The hack I lean on to navigate my life. I used to binge, not know my limits, and push myself to burnout, until I learned how to navigate life with my Human GPS. I am opening up some spaces to teach you how to do it too.

Because sometimes the hardest part isn’t dreaming bigger. It’s figuring out why, after everything you’ve learned and everything you’ve tried, your life still doesn’t look the way you want it to. I know that feeling intimately. After 20 years of self-help, personal development, goal setting, manifestation, mindset work and trying to become the version of myself I know I’m capable of being, I’ve reached a point where I’m calling it what it is: rock bottom. But I’m not giving up on my dreams. Instead, I’m using everything I know — plus the tools we have access to in 2026 that simply didn’t exist when I started this journey — to run a year-long experiment: Rock Bottom to Dream Life in 365. If you’re ready to stop endlessly starting over and finally understand what might actually help you move forward, grab a drink and come hang out with me. In this episode, we’re talking about: Why you can know exactly what you want and still struggle to actually create itThe cycle of setting goals, falling off, starting again and wondering why nothing seems to stickWhy taking action and doing the reps may matter more than constantly learning something newWhat 20 years in the self-help and personal development world taught me about why change can be so hardWhy trying to completely transform your life overnight can make your biggest dreams feel even further awayHow the tools available to us in 2026 are changing the way we can approach goal setting, habits, personal growth and life transformationWhat I’m doing now that I’ve hit rock bottom — and why I’m turning the next 365 days into an experiment in building my dream life from here————— Get clarity on the next step towards your dreams for FREE.

Maybe you want to speak up for yourself, trust your decisions, make more money, build a successful career, or create a completely different kind of life than the one you grew up around—but no matter how badly you want it, you keep slipping back into old patterns. I know that feeling because I spent years trying to become a more confident, empowered version of myself while still operating from everything I’d been taught about who I was supposed to be. In this episode, we’re talking about what happens when the life you want requires you to become someone you were never shown how to be—and why that doesn’t mean you’re stuck being who you were raised to be. In this episode, we’re getting into: Why changing your life can feel so hard when your goals don’t match the beliefs and behaviours you grew up aroundThe connection between childhood conditioning, self-belief, confidence, boundaries, money, success and the way you show up as an adultWhy the voices you’ve heard throughout your life can become the voice running the show inside your own headWhat your nervous system has to do with falling back into familiar habits, even when you desperately want something differentHow I’m experimenting with using my own voice to support identity shifts, self-trust and becoming the woman I actually want to beA first look at 7 Days to Be Her, and how you can join the VIP list if you want to experiment with changing how you show up every day right alongside me————— FREE GUIDED PRACTICE Steal the practice I use in my own life to get clarity.
