In today's episode, I share with you how to surrender, a concept that can be challenging, yet so transformative. Contrary to popular belief, surrender is not about giving up or being weak. It's about releasing the need to control outcomes and trusting in a power greater than the voices in your head to guide you.In this episode, we'll explore why surrender is important for personal and spiritual growth, common obstacles to surrender, and practical ways to cultivate surrender in your daily life. Whether you're facing a difficult situation or seeking to deepen your spiritual practice, surrender can help you find peace, clarity, and a greater sense of connection to yourself and the world around you.Through meditation, prayer, journaling, and other creative practices, you can learn to let go of fear, doubt, and unhealthy attachment, and tap into a deeper source of wisdom and support. Join me as we explore the power of surrender and how it can transform your life.Thank you for joining me as I share personal stories and insights from my own journey too. I hope that by listening you gain greater clarity and support if you're going through the same.1:1 COACHINGI only have 2 spots remaining for 1:1 Coaching in May - APPLY HEREwww.talibrash.com/coachingThanks so much for listening ❤️ We'd love this to ripple out to more creatives so if you could leave a 5 star rating and review here we would greatly appreciate it

In this episode I break down a 5 step simple and effective technique on how to shift your negative thinking - you know those critical, judgemental voices in your head? Well, the more I speak to other creative women, the more I understand just how important it is to rewire our conditioning and shift our focus to thoughts that are more empowering, positive and abundant (opposite of scarcity) I know from years of suffering with anxiety and having such hard wired conditioning in the religious environment I grew up in just how frustrating it can be when your thoughts come in to block you and hold you back from the thing your heart is leading you towards. Which is why I want to share these steps with you today so you can feel free from the voices in your head and go on to create whatever it is in your life you are wanting to create. Whether that's financial abundance, take your business to the next level, start a creative project or be more present with your loved ones. As mentioned in this episode there are a couple of ways we can currently work together to support your inner voice leading the way in your life! 1:1 Coaching - APPLY HEREwww.talibrash.com/coaching6 Month Group Coaching Program - The Intuitive Mamawww.talibrash.com/the-intuitive-mama-programThanks so much for listening ❤️ We'd love this to ripple out to more creatives so if you could leave a 5 star rating and review here we would greatly appreciate it

I truly feel that what's made such a difference to the experience I'm having now as a mum, is the mindset work. The inner work. The 15 years of learning & coaching clients about the mind and the voices that can come up if we're not aware of them. Knowing that I have the choice and ability to shift my mindset has made this experience so much more enjoyable. But it also comes in to be so important in other areas of life, like the changes I'm currently experiencing. In this episode I share some tangible steps you can try today to master your mind and tune into your intuitive voice.  PS: I'll be offering The Creative Mama course one last time this year.

Being able to have the tools to harness your intuition, especially when it comes to making decisions has been fundamental for me since becoming a mum. But it's something I've put into practise for years as a creative and entrepreneur. Being able to make decisions from the guidance of my intuition rather than from fear and people pleasing is a very important life skill and the practise of knowing the difference between the two has made so many things I've desired in my life, come to fruition. In this episode I share how you can let go of fear and take action on what your intuition is guiding you to. One of the MOST EFFECTIVE ways I connect to my intuition is through CREATIVE MEDITATION. It is such a simple and effective tool you can draw on today. I share 5 EASY ways to bring creative meditation into daily life.

Helloooo from the other side! It's surreal to be sharing my birth story with you and be on the other side of the experience with my now, 3 month old baby.  I'm so thankful for how my birth turned out. I truly believe it was a combination of the support team we created, the education & prep work we did and the many years of practising to surrender to a higher plan!It was really important for me to hear positive birth stories while I was pregnant, so if you know someone who's pregnant, feel free to share this episode with them if they are wanting to hear an empowered and positive home birth experience. I feel like the tools I was able to draw on and the mindset I had throughout pregnancy, labour and birth can be applied to so many things, not just birth. Creative projects, business and approaching daily life in a calm, empowered way.

This week on The Creative Zone Podcast I chat with Rachel Crethar,  an intuitive hypnotherapist and RTT therapist who  works with clients all over the world, helping them with all kinds of problems including anxiety, emotional eating disorders, removing money blocks, relationship issues and even helping them fall pregnant naturally after years of trying. I have been so interested in hypnotherapy for a long time and how your inner voices can be re-wired on a subconscious level. It's so incredible as Rachel believes that if we can understand ourselves and peel back those layers of conditioning (that quite often aren't even ours to begin with), remove any old, out-dated beliefs that are holding us back, then we can have a richer experience and design a life that we truly love. After speaking with Rachel I felt so recharged and am really looking forward to experiencing Rachel's hypnotherapy for myself.In this episode, we chat about:Rachel's creative expression as a child through performance and role playing while coming from a childhood with an emphasis on traditional academic success.How Rachel re-trained herself to see creativity as everything that pours out of us, rather then your typical creative avenues.Identifying the feeling of anxiety within childhood as an adult.How just a simple awareness of your beliefs can help shift your subconscious thoughts.Why it's important to bring your beliefs to your conscious mind.How we can try to nurture our children today to not allow others' voices and opinions to be absorbed into their psyche. A beautiful and intuitive moment with her son and nurturing him back from in utero conditioning.Guiding her clients through past life regression and hypnosis and being able to identify their true voice.Getting met with resistance from internal voices in hypnosis.How Rachel facilitates ‘future self work' with clients and in her personal life.Visualisation during birth.How motherhood has shifted her relationship with her creativity and lifestyle.Hypnotherapy and fertility.Why it's important to explore the origin of trauma.Rachel's advice on navigating parenthood and keeping in touch with your true self.Check out Rachel's Future Self event coming up where she teaches more on how to envision your future self and embody your visions that come up for 2022.Connect with Rachel: Website: www.rachelcrethar.comInstagram: @rachelcretharWe would really appreciate if you could leave a rating & review on Apple Podcasts.To listen to more episodes of The Creative Zone Podcast, click hereWhere to find Tali:Website: www.talibrash.comInstagram: @talibrash + @thecreativezonepodcastSupport the show

This week I wanted to share some recent experiences I've had that have really deepened my awareness around the difference between inner confidence and external confidence. I used to get told “wow you're such a confident person” and I guess I was on the outside, but on the inside I had a lot of self doubt and anxiety within me. In my body of work, I share a lot about inner confidence and most recently I've created a short course around cultivating your inner confidence. While creating the course, it gave me some time to reflect on my past and present connection to confidence. In this episode I chat about Finding the balance between your internal and external life and allowing yourself to be as you are without considering putting on a persona to please others. A recent experience where I was met with unsolicited advice and judgementFeeling your energy build up and calling on specific voices to help guide you while being your true self.Navigating your reactivity.Being able to understand, acknowledge and hold yourself during times where other voices want to protect and defend you. NEW SHORT COURSES:As mentioned, I have a new Short Course out called - "How To Find Your Inner Confidence".It's a 4 week DIY style online course to experience my unique  creative voices process to connect to your inner wisdom and unleash your inner confidence.Website: www.talibrash.comDownload Free Worksheet: 5 Steps To Identifying What's Holding You BackInstagram: @talibrash + @thecreativezonepodcastFacebook: Tali BrashTo listen to more episodes of The Creative Zone Podcast, click hereSupport the show

This week on the Creative Zone Podcast, I wanted to chat about ways we can stay connected to our inner voice and how to find the confidence to do so when there's so much noise and energy that can sway us during this time. Coming from a years of people pleasing, I know how hard it is to stay grounded and connected to your truth. This time in and out of lockdown has really given us the space to do some self-enquiry and maybe confront some things we may have been putting off for a while. The thought of re-introducing these new sides of yourself can trigger unhelpful voices in your head. I wanted to share with you some tools that have helped me return to what's true for me and set healthy boundaries with myself and others. I discuss 2 specific voices that have helped guide me to a place of contentment when I'm feeling overwhelmed and unsure of my next steps. Remember to go slowly and give yourself permission to go at a pace that feels good for you. NEW SHORT COURSES:As mentioned, I have a new Short Course out called - "How To Find Your Inner Confidence".

In this week's episode, I chat with the lovely Freya Light. Freya is a health coach, birth keeper and the host of the beautiful podcast “Remembering Birth “, where she interviews Mums and Birth Workers who share their positive birth stories and wisdom around the sacred journey of birth.I loved chatting with Freya about her creativity as a child being projected through singing, dancing and taking on the mother persona with her dolls. We chat about how her belief system around birth shifted after her first child as she really held onto the idea that birth is a terrifying experience. It wasn't until a friend's positive birth story that she realised she didn't have to listen to those around her and to follow her mothers intuition while setting up boundaries and owning your own choice of what's right for you. About Freya: Freya Light helps women prepare for natural and ecstatic births. She had three incredible, life changing births and believes all women can have births they love. She's a healthcoach, and birthkeeper and the host of the Remembering birth podcast, where she interviews mummas and birth workers who share their positive birth stories and wisdom.

In this week's episode I share some practical tips on how to bring the practise of meditation into your life to help reduce anxiety and calm the voices in your head. After meditating consistently now for 10 years, I realised that when I started with it I struggled because I thought I had to do it in a certain way and get to a relaxed place and when that didn't happen I'd get frustrated.

On this week's episode I chat with Charlie India, a lawyer by day and creative community builder by night. Charlie has recently begun a journey to reconnecting with her creative self while working in an academic environment and it's a really insightful and inspiring story that I'm so excited to share. In this episode we speak about:Creativity in her childhood and being supported in a strong academic household. Re-discovering her creativity and the realisation that something is missing within herself. Creating for yourself without making it a productionOur collective creative blocks and how we express them individuallyGetting perspective by putting pen to paperAuthentic creativity vs your voicesThe connection between your creativity and the female reproductive cycleABOUT CHARLIE: Charlie is a lawyer by day, and an artist and creative community builder by night. After 10 years of climbing the corporate ladder, Charlie woke up at the beginning of 2021 to the realisation that something was missing. Her creativity! And so began a journey towards rediscovering herself through art, videography and, above all, creative community. Charlie now finds herself 6 months down the line with a renewed passion for life, experience of selling her art online under her belt, and leading a flourishing online creative community - The Creatives' Coffee Club. With various creative projects on the horizon, Charlie's mission remains to inspire others to look inward and reacquaint themselves with their creative spark.  Website: www.thecreativescoffeeclub.com Instagram: @thecreativescoffeeclub + @ofcharliesmakingYoutube Channel: The Creatives Coffee ClubWe would really appreciate if you could leave a rating & review on Apple Podcasts.To listen to more episodes of The Creative Zone Podcast, click hereWhere to find Tali:Website: www.talibrash.comInstagram: @talibrash + @thecreativezonepodcastSupport the show
