    Why Chasing Manifestation Is Keeping You Stuck.

    On today's episode of Changing Your Mentality Podcast, we are talking on the secret ingredient the universe handed over to us before birth, it is imagination. We are so obsessed with manifestation, but manifestation is just the by-product of imagination. Imagination is your ticket out of every limitation you can think of, because life starts and ends in the mind. In today's episode, I am sharing all about what true imagination is—and what it isn't. Think of your brain like a car engine. We use that exact same engine whenever we want to worry about things going wrong, and when we want to picture a beautiful life for ourselves. The only issue is, we use this machine to worry way more than we imagine. We have been using imagination wrongly. When you want to imagine a life for yourself, your business isn't the “how.” Your business is the event itself. The second you focus on how a dream will unfold, your mind becomes rigid, locking you into only one path. If you are imagining a trip to Paris, focusing only on the airport means you will completely miss the ship waiting for you at the port. Imagine yourself in Paris already. What are you wearing? What are you eating? Where are you sleeping? Be deeply detailed about the event. Once you render it beautifully in your mind, come back to earth. You have given your brain its target. It is now time for your system—your Reticular Activating System (RAS)—to scan the world and find the ways to get you there. Stop figuring out the how. Start commanding the engine. 00:00 - Introduction. 01:29 - Welcome. 03:05 - What you should focus icon when imagining and what you shouldn't. 10:40 - Three things that hinders Imagination. 19:16 - How often should I imagine? 30:49 - Key takeaway. 31:46 - Outro.

    Stop Figuring Out Life | What You Should Do Instead.

    Today’s episode is on why we need to stop "figuring out life."I have observed something lately. Whenever a word or phrase flies all over the internet, we tend to all jump on it and make it our new mantra. These days, that phrase is "I am still figuring out life." People have gone as far as making "figuring out life" their social media handles. But life isn’t an object to be figured out. Life is a subject.When you buy a gadget, you say, "I want to figure out how to use this gadget," which is true. It’s an object with a manual that can be figured out within minutes. That doesn't apply to life. Life is an ever-changing subject. Take mathematics, for instance: you don't have one single formula for every problem. You have to keep learning because things change on a daily basis. That is life. You can't know it all because it is constantly evolving. Life doesn't have an inherent, universal meaning. You give it meaning according to your experiences and belief systems. You have to look at your life consciously and intentionally. Ask yourself: How do I want my life to be? What do I want to make out of the life in front of me? How do I want my story to unfold? Be deliberate about your life. If you keep moving unconsciously, you will scream "fate" at every junction. And by the time you try to slip back into consciousness, you will just join the bandwagon of "figuring out life." Most of the people we look at and assume have it all "figured out" actually don't. They simply asked themselves a clear question: I know why I want this, and this is how I will go after it. You just have to do the same and be patient with yourself. If you aren't patient, you will revert to operating unconsciously, and five years from now, you will hit another awakening and call it "figuring out life as I go." Just be intentional. That is all life is asking of us. Our beliefs, experiences, and observations shape everything about our reality. Until we choose to see the patterns, we will remain in the cycle.

    The Costly Mistake That Almost Ended This Podcast.

    I almost made a costly mistake that would have ruined my platform forever. When I started Changing Your Mentality Podcast, the primary aim was to explore psychology, human behavior, the subconscious mind, and returning to our original blueprint. However, when I began experiencing new insights on awakening, I felt compelled to bring them here. That was my mistake. I should have created a separate platform for those topics or kept them on Instagram where they originally started. Instead, I decided it was best to end podcasting altogether—throwing out the baby with the bathwater. I have now realized my mistake, and I am correcting it. I am not perfect. This is me welcoming both of us back to Changing Your Mentality Podcast. I know you are here because you care about psychology, human behavior, and understanding the subconscious mind. Hit follow so we can learn, unlearn, and grow together.If you would also like to receive my weekly newsletter, I created The Uncluttered Mind on Substack. You can subscribe to read my work at changingyourmentality.com. I love you. Until our next episode: stay safe, stay healthy, and bye for now!

    What Brings You Joy And Fulfillment?

    Is following your passion supposed to be painless? Or have we forgotten the true meaning of the word?In this follow-up to our series on How to find your purpose in your passion, we dive deep into the mechanics of building a life that actually sustains you. We stop the "all or nothing" narrative and talk about the practical bridge between where you are and where you want to be.In this episode, we discuss:The 9-5 Permission: Why staying in your job is perfectly okay if it brings you joy, and how to use it as a "sponsor" if it doesn’t.Gift vs. Skill: Why your gift may not feed you yet, and why you must master a skill to fund your calling.The Latin Root of Passion: Why "Passion" literally means "to suffer," and how to embrace the necessary pain of the beginning.The Service Solution: Could your health issues or lack of a spouse be tied to a lack of service? Why "Seeking the Kingdom" (Service) often unlocks the very things you have been chasing.The Return of "Good Fear": Why we stopped challenging ourselves after school and how to bring back the "Good Fear" that forces growth.It is time to stop waiting for a painless path and start building the one you were meant for.If you are ready to let go of the beliefs holding you back and want to work with me to redesign your internal blueprint, I am available for 1-on-1 Mindset Strategy sessions.

    How To Find Your Purpose In Your Passion.

    Are you the reason the boat is rocking? In the most vulnerable episode of Changing Your Mentality to date, we explore The Jonah Secret. We often look at the crises in our lives, health issues, job loss, family friction, as external attacks. But what if they are actually the "storm" sent to stop you from running in the wrong direction?In this episode, I share my personal "Whale" experience:The Comparison Trap: Why I spent years looking for "my Tony Robbins" instead of becoming the woman I was born to be.The First-Born Burden: How the pressure to provide for my mother kept me tethered to a career in accounting that wasn't mine to lead.The Cost of Disobedience: A raw reflection on whether the "storms" in our health and our families are connected to our refusal to serve our true calling.The Kingdom Principle: Why chasing "all these things" (money and fame) first leads to lack, while seeking Service first leads to abundance. If you feel like you have been fighting an uphill battle, it is time to stop and ask: Am I Jonah? It is time to stop running and start forging your own path.If you are ready to let go of the beliefs holding you back and want to work with me to redesign your internal blueprint, I am available for 1-on-1 Mindset Strategy sessions.

    The Myth of the Finished Project: Why You’ll Always Be a Work in Progress.

    Have you been waiting for the day when you finally "arrive", where the worrying stops, the confidence is permanent, and you are officially "developed"?In this episode of Changing Your Mentality, we dismantle the dangerous myth of "Self-Development." The problem is in the word itself. "Development" implies an ending, a finished building, a completed task. But the human soul isn't a construction project; it’s a living, breathing process.In this episode, we discuss:The Grammar of Growth: Why we must shift our vocabulary from "Development" to "Developing."Mental Hygiene: If you wouldn't dream of skipping a bath or a meal for a week, why do you think one seminar or one book "fixed" your mindset forever?The Vacuum Principle: Why getting rid of worry isn't enough. If you don't intentionally fill that space with gratitude, lower frequencies like greed and anxiety will move back in.The Only Finished Project: Why the only time we stop "developing" is when we exit this physical frequency altogether.Stop looking for the finish line and start embracing the practice. You aren't "broken" because you still have work to do. You are simply alive.If you are ready to let go of the beliefs holding you back and want to work with me to redesign your internal blueprint, I am available for 1-on-1 Mindset Strategy sessions.

    Words Are Just Sounds: How to De-Program Your Emotional Reactions.

    What if "Stupid," "Failure," or "Fool" were just vibrations in the air with no power to hurt you?In this episode of Changing Your Mentality, we peel back the layers of linguistic programming to reveal a liberating truth: You don’t react to words; you react to the meanings you have been trained to give them.Using the "Child’s Innocence" perspective, we explore why words only have the power we grant them. If a child doesn't know a word is an insult, they speak it with zero shame. So, why do we, as adults, allow sounds to dictate our emotional state?We dive into:The Anatomy of an Insult: Why we react to things we know aren't true, and how to stop.The "Truth" Test: If someone calls you a fool and it hurts, is it because a part of you believes them?Complimenting the Truth: Why "You are a fool" should be handled with the same neutrality as "You are beautiful" if both are simply observations of reality.The Catalyst for Change: How to use "painful" labels as a compass for personal evolution rather than a source of shame.Stop being a puppet to other people’s vocabulary. It is time to de-program your triggers and take back control of your inner broadcast.If you are ready to let go of the beliefs holding you back and want to work with me to redesign your internal blueprint, I am available for 1-on-1 Mindset Strategy sessions.
