    1023 | You Cannot Outdo Who You Are Being

    In this episode, Marsha explores the powerful connection between identity and personal transformation, emphasizing the truth that you cannot outperform the identity you currently hold about yourself. She dives into the gap that often exists between who people say they want to become and the version of themselves their subconscious mind still believes they are. Marsha unpacks how many individuals pursue new levels of success, visibility, leadership, or growth while unconsciously holding onto outdated beliefs, stories, and self-perceptions that no longer align with their future vision. She explains how this internal conflict can create resistance, self-sabotage, and emotional exhaustion, even when the right strategies and actions are in place. Throughout the episode, Marsha highlights the importance of identity work, emotional regulation, support, and repetition in creating lasting change. She encourages listeners to reflect on the stories they continue to rehearse internally and on whether their current identity truly matches the future they desire to create.

    1021 | Self-Trust is How We Build from Within with Kristie Crate

    Kristie Crate lives where the trees outnumber the houses, and the wind through the pines is a steady reminder to slow down. She walks the space between who she has been and who she is becoming, alchemizing lived experience into wisdom. Her days are layered, not divided. Mother. Wife. Nurse. Co-owner of a construction company. Photographer. Coach. Each role an instrument she picks up with intention. At the core of it all is one belief: self-trust changes everything. When a woman remembers who she is beneath the conditioning and noise, she becomes grounded and powerful. Kristie believes healing and building are the same sacred practice, and the result is legacy. To experience Kristie is to feel both roots and expansion, evolving on purpose, not away from her life, but deeper into it. Chapters: [03:14] - Introducing Kristie Crate: A Journey of Transformation [08:57] - The Journey of Thriving: From Struggles to Transformation [19:04] - From Pain to Purpose: The Journey of Trust [21:45] - The Journey of Belonging [27:06] - Introduction to Built from Within Program [35:34] - Living at Cause: Taking Responsibility for Our Lives [36:28] - Mindset and Agency: Owning Your Choices [45:13] - The Journey of Growth and Choices Connect with Kristie: Email:kristiecrate@gmail.com Website: https://www.oaklandnorthremodelling.com/courses/built-from-within Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristiecrate| Kristie’s Freebie – What is Your Renovation Language:https://app.quizitri.com/render/c31f767f-b667-4de8-a0e9-d9ed6725b5ea Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Join us for Heart-Wired CEO Live 2026: https://www.heart-wiredceo.com/live OUTSPOKEN Publishing: https://www.outspokenpublishing.com UNBOTHERED Mastermind: https://www.marshavanw.com/unbothered-entrepreneur Unbothered Mind Podcast https://www.marshavanw.com/unbotheredmindpodcast Download FREE “You Are Supported” Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle HERE Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in March 2025) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

    1020 | The 95%: Why Your Subconscious Mind Runs Your Life

    In this episode, Marsha dives into one of the most important conversations in personal growth, leadership, and transformation: the difference between what your conscious mind wants… and what your subconscious mind believes is safe. She explains how the conscious mind is responsible for setting goals, creating visions, and deciding what you desire for your life — but the subconscious mind is the part actually running the patterns, habits, emotional reactions, and behaviours that determine whether you move toward those goals or away from them. Marsha breaks down how so many people unknowingly sabotage the very things they say they want, not because they lack motivation or strategy, but because their subconscious programming is still rooted in fear, limitation, predictability, and protection. This episode is a powerful reminder that transformation is not simply about setting bigger goals — it’s about becoming the version of yourself who feels safe enough to receive them. If you’ve ever wondered why you continue repeating the same patterns despite how much you consciously want change, this conversation will help you understand why.

    1019 | Unlocking Subconscious Patterns: The Key to Change

    In this episode, Marsha dives into the profound impact that subconscious patterns have on our personal growth, business decisions, and client behaviours. She explores why so many people remain stuck in repetitive cycles—not because they lack strategy, intelligence, or information, but because the subconscious mind is designed to prioritize what feels familiar, predictable, and safe. Through real-life insights and years of experience in subconscious reprogramming and NLP, Marsha unpacks how deeply rooted beliefs and identity patterns can quietly sabotage visibility, growth, success, and transformation. She emphasizes that lasting change does not come from consuming more information alone, but from rewiring the internal programming that determines what we believe is possible for us. This episode invites listeners to reflect on the identities they are reinforcing daily and whether those patterns are truly aligned with the life, business, and impact they desire to create. It is a powerful conversation about awareness, personal responsibility, and the subconscious mechanisms shaping every choice we make.

    1017 | Success vs Fulfillment: The Conversation We Need to Have

    In this episode, Marsha explores the powerful distinction between success and fulfillment, and why external achievement alone is never enough to create true inner peace. She reflects on how many high-achieving people chase milestones, recognition, income, titles, and outward proof of success, only to find themselves still feeling restless, disconnected, or unfulfilled. Through the lens of NLP, subconscious reprogramming, and Heart-Wired leadership, Marsha invites listeners to look deeper at what success actually means when it is not anchored in values, purpose, and internal alignment. She shares that success without fulfillment can feel empty, while fulfillment creates the foundation for sustainable, meaningful expansion. This episode is a powerful reminder that the goal is not just to achieve more, but to become deeply aligned with who you are, what you value, and the impact you are here to create. True success begins within.

    1016 | The Certainty You’re Chasing Has to Come From You First

    This episode explores the kind of certainty that can only be found inside of you. I’m unpacking the way we often wait for guarantees, validation, or perfect timing before we make the move, say yes, invest, lead, create, or decide. The truth is, the certainty we’re craving rarely comes from the circumstances changing first; it comes from trusting ourselves before the evidence arrives. Through personal reflections and client conversations, I share how some of the biggest quantum leaps in my life came from decisions made in uncertainty, not comfort. This episode is an invitation to stop outsourcing your confidence to the conditions around you and start building the identity, self-belief, and internal certainty that can hold you through the unknown. Because when you become certain in yourself, you no longer need life to feel predictable before you choose your next level.
