    Manifestation Doesn’t Work Unless You Stop Doing This One Thing

    For years, I thought manifestation was about doing more—thinking the right thoughts, visualizing harder, hustling to make my dreams come true. But beneath it all was the quiet voice of my Inner Critic, convincing me I wasn’t enough yet. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what manifestation really is—and why it can’t work when it’s rooted in control, fear, or striving. We’ll explore how to unhook from the illusion that you need to “earn” your desires, and instead, step into the version of you who already is whole, worthy, and magnetic.  If you’ve been chasing your future while doubting your present, this is the reminder your soul has been waiting for. Listen now and return to the power of who you already are.   Your weekly reflection questions: What if I already am the version of myself I’ve been trying to become? Where in my life am I still trying to control the outcome instead of trusting the process? How would I think, feel, and act today if I truly believed everything I desire is already on its way?

    Are You Betraying Yourself and You Don’t Know It?

    For years, I was doing everything “right”—checking the boxes, building a life that looked good on the outside—yet deep down, something felt off. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I was betraying my Authentic Self, letting old patterns and my Inner Critic run the show. In this episode, I’m sharing the deeper truth about what it really means to live your true calling—not by fixing your life, but by unhooking from the thoughts, roles, and beliefs that no longer serve you. If you’ve ever felt stuck, restless, or quietly wondered, “Is this really it?”—this is the conversation your soul has been waiting for. Watch now to reconnect with the version of you who’s always been there, just waiting to be remembered.   Your weekly reflection questions: Where in your life are you saying “yes” when your Authentic Self is quietly saying “no”? What truth have you been avoiding that your body already knows? If you stopped trying to prove, fix, or strive—who would you allow yourself to become?

    The Question That Changes Everything: How to Stop Spinning and Start Creating

    In this episode of the Dethroning Your Inner Critic podcast, we’re diving into the hidden pattern that keeps so many of us stuck—spinning in “why” instead of creating from “what.” I’m unpacking how your Inner Critic convinces you that you need to fix yourself before you can finally feel free, successful, or at peace—and how that keeps you circling the same stories, goals, and fears without real transformation. But there’s another way. When you stop analyzing your past and start asking, “What would it look like to live from my future self right now?”—everything changes. If you’ve been caught in the loop of overthinking, second-guessing, or waiting to feel ready, this conversation is your invitation to break the cycle and finally begin building a life from vision, presence, and power. ✨ Tune in—you’re closer than you think.   Your weekly reflection questions: Am I stuck in asking “why” instead of deciding “what” I want to believe, feel, or create today? What would shift if I embodied the energy of my future self right now—before anything outside of me changes? How is my Inner Critic keeping me spinning in analysis, instead of moving me toward aligned action?   Looking for the Redesign Your Future: The Hidden Truth About Transformation Masterclass? >> You can find all the info here   Like this episode?
