    3 Million Bits → 125: How Your Mind Filters Reality (NLP Model of the World

    Every second, your nervous system takes in around 3 million bits of information — but your conscious mind only processes about 125. The rest is filtered through deletion, distortion, and generalization, shaping what’s called your Model of the World. 🧠 In this short mindset reset with MA Kersgard, you’ll uncover: Why you never experience “raw reality” — only filtered perception How your beliefs shape focus, decisions, and performance The NLP framework that explains why two people can live through the same event yet walk away with completely different stories How mastering your filters can change results in recovery, business, and life This isn’t abstract theory. It’s a practical lens used in sober coaching, business coaching, and recovery coaching to break free from old patterns and create lasting change.

    Recovery Coaching for Professionals: Life After Treatment

    Most people walk out of treatment feeling strong — but within days or weeks, stress, pressure, and old patterns come rushing back. “Why does this keep happening — when I was doing so well inside?” If you’ve ever left treatment and ended up right back at the liquor store, you’re not alone. That gap between structure and real life is where most high achievers stumble — not because they’re weak, but because they don’t have the right support once the safety net is gone. 🧠 In this short mindset reset with MA Kersgard, you’ll uncover: Why treatment alone often isn’t enough to sustain change The difference between a sponsor and a recovery coach How coaching addresses the whole person — body, mind, career, relationships, and purpose Why executives and professionals benefit from personalized coaching beyond the 12 steps This isn’t therapy. It’s not “just meetings.” It’s recovery coaching — discreet, personalized support that helps you thrive, not just survive.
