The Women who Wonder Podcast

In this episode, we are slowing down a bit. We are talking about feelings which is a loaded topic. This is our 4th episode from our "Lies my guru told me," series. The question we are exploring this week is: can you really move forward or take the action you want or need to take if your feelings aren't aligned with that action? If this is your time tuning in, let me remind you that my intentions are not to convince you to abandon your beliefs for mine. But rather, for your to listen with an open mind, giving yourself the chance to have your own insights or aha moments. Hope you enjoy the episode.

This is the 3rd episode in our "Lies my guru told me series." Do you know the reason you want that sexy or slim figure, that new house, to find love, etc? I think by now you probably already know that all we're ever chasing is a feeling. Everything we do is either to avoid a bad one or chase a good one. Our goal, no matter what we think What I will be encouraging you to consider this week, is to begin to wonder what feeling do you believe reaching these goals will give you? And better yet, what if, that emotion you're waiting to feel could be generated from within you, right now? If this is your time tuning in, let me remind you that my intentions are not to convince you to abandon your beliefs for mine. But rather, for your to listen with an open mind, giving yourself the chance to have your own insights or aha moments. Hope you enjoy the episode.

In this episode, we pick up where we left off. This is the second "lie" in our LIES MY GURU TOLD ME series. How many times have you been told that you're damaged goods, or that your past or experiences have left you broken, or, that in order to feel whole again, you need fixing? Well, let me share what I know to be true about you, me, and every human on this beautiful planet. If this is your time tuning in, let me remind you that my intentions are not to convince you to abandon your beliefs for mine. But rather, for your to listen with an open mind, giving yourself the chance to have your own insights or aha moments. Hope you enjoy the episode.

In this episode, we begin our LIES MY GURU TOLD ME series. Have you ever wondered what is it that children know that we don't or seemed to have forgotten? What keeps them from giving up after failing to walk even after 100 failed attempts? Have you ever wondered when did you stop relying on that innate motivation and started searching for others to provide it for you? Is it too late to go back? Are you doomed to spending your precious time here searching for what you believe will bring you that feeling we all seem to desperately be searching for? If this is your first time tuning in, So glad you're here. As a reminder, my intentions are not to convince you to abandon your beliefs for mine. But rather, for your to listen with an open mind, allowing yourself the opportunity to have your own insights or aha moments. I'm not here to teach you anything. I'm just here to point you back to what you already know and slowly forgot and hopefully spark a little curiosity. Hope you enjoy the episode. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a line (jo@johannacoaches.com) or dm me on Instagram @johannacoaches In case no one has told you lately, I love you.

Hello superfriends! In this episode, we're talking about what creates our feelings and what our thoughts are really telling us. I also share the first time I became curious and wondered about the nature of thought. Our feelings affect every action we take or don't take, so learning about where do our feelings come from will change our lives. I lived my entire life trying to find the answer and when I found it, my entire life changed, forever. This realization has the capacity to heal your suffering as it did for me. I'd been trying to find a way to share it with others ever since. And I'm on my way. I mention Syd Banks and the 3 principles: Mind, Consciousness, and Thought. https://youtu.be/YWsNXbRXq3M (one of his lectures) Be curious, don't be afraid to misbehave and stay wonderful, Superfriend. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/support

I decided to make a small change. Our name is changing from the Mindful Latina to Women who Wonder. In this episode, I talk about the issue I have with the word "mindful" and what I believe is making it harder for people to actually practice being mindful. And I also want to make sure I reach a broader audience. I might still talk about sofrito from time to time, but I believe that what I share can help anyone regardless of the music you listen to and sense of humor, which I found are the only real differences between all humans. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/support

Today we talk about how trying so hard to lose that weight could be what's keeping you from actually accomplishing it. I use what Allan Watts refers to as the "backwards law" to explain this idea that the more we want something the more aware that we don't have it we become. The more we try and want to have a "fit" body, the more aware we become that we don't have it. You will get what you want when it's no longer something you have to work on or think about. When it becomes effortless, and part of your life. Thank you for listening.

In today's episode, we're talking about traditional weight-loss advice and how following other people's roadmaps will always lead to disappointment. We are taught to question our self-worth, our beauty, our bodies, and our lives. We are then sold the idea of a world of happiness, adventure, enjoyment, that comes with fixing what they're telling us is wrong with us. Now we want that world, but they tell us it's very difficult to get to.....unless you buy the product, program/solution. So this is where you are. Points we discuss: Chasing solutions to a "problem" you think you have. What if the problem is being caused by what you're being told. What if the picture of the world they've sold you isn't what you want? What if the solution you're seeking, you already have? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/support

Every human is born with the same innate wisdom and desires which is why babies don't need anyone to motivate them to walk, talk or to figure out how to use their arms, fingers, etc. Many of us are taught that there are certain people who are born fearless, with willpower, with motivation and even destined for success. We are all born with the same. Everything we believe or don't believe about ourselves we learn from society, family, friends and/or community. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/support

In this episode, we're talking about two types of goals: unhealthy, or toxic goals and goals that are desires that come from within you. These goals will look like this: I want ________so I can be _______(happy, confident, peaceful, satisfied, etc.) I want ________so I can stop feeling ________(sad, insecure, angry, etc) I want ________or I can't be _______(happy, confident, peaceful, etc.) I want ________because I don't want _______to happen. What you really desire you desire because you just do. You don't want it because you're expecting for it to make you feel what you don't already feel. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/support

In today's episode, we will be talking about returning to this idea of home as a way to talk about a return to our home base. Points discussed: Why do we leave our homes and follow other people's paths? How to know when we've traveled so far away from what brings us true peace and happiness. Why realizing where we are and how we got there, will immediately bring us a sense of relief. Realizing why you've felt so confused and overwhelmed will help you give you a sense of control Returning to your home and beginning the process of getting rid of all the stuff, beliefs and how to's over the years. I use "home" as a metaphor for your mind and life. Once you're back there you'll be able to clear away the clutter, decide what you'll allow in and start the process of getting clarity and taking action. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/womenwhowonder/support
