Have you ever experienced that moment where all of a sudden your reality shifts and things that you thought were real aren't true anymore? In today's episode, join me on a journey to Alaska chasing the Northern Lights where an unexpected discovery taught us profound lessons about overcoming drama, shifting perspectives, and choosing the stories we tell ourselves. Key Takeaways: The Problem: slipping into drama and telling ourselves stories that involve blaming, victimizing, or controlling our lives and others.

The Application: two main tools can help you get to a place of fulfillment and radiance: Get clear about the facts: focus on what's true, like the weather or the actual words someone said. Decide what you want those facts to mean: it's up to you to decide how you want to experience a situation, because the narrative you craft is what creates the emotions you feel.

Do you ever get stuck not enjoying your self-care because you're too worried that it's an excuse to be indulgent?

Ever found yourself longing for deeper, more authentic connections, only to realize that the journey begins within? In this soul-stirring episode of Radiant You, we explore a transformative conversation about the essence of self-love and the power of building a relationship with yourself. Discover how embracing your own light can illuminate the path to fulfilling connections with others. Key Takeaways: The Quest for Acceptance: Learn from a client that unpacked the emotional narrative of feeling too intense, too much, or not enough for others. Learn how these perceptions could fuel a cycle of one-sided relationships and self-doubt in your own life. Impact on Life's Relationships: Dive deep into how the struggle for self-acceptance affects not only friendships but also family dynamics and professional interactions. Understand the consequences of seeking validation outside oneself. Core Concepts for Radiant Self-Love: Expansive Self-Awareness: The foundation for recognizing and honoring your values, attracting like-minded individuals, and stopping negative self-talk. Transformational Self-Confidence: Embrace friendship failures and personal setbacks with grace, knowing you have the inner strength to persevere. Tangible Self-Love: Cultivate a profound sense of self-love that transcends external validation, recognizing your inherent worth and divinity. The Path to Authentic Connections: Insight into shifting focus from external approval to nurturing a deep, loving relationship with oneself as the cornerstone of authentic relationships with others.

Ever look into the mirror and feel like you don't want to look yourself in the eyes? Join us for another transformative episode where we explore how to shift from the external need to find confidence to transformational internal self-confidence—the type of confidence that lets you look in the mirror and see the radiant you. Key Takeaways: The Weariness of Unmet Expectations: Stop chasing a "healthy" life, constantly measuring where you are lacking. These unmet expectations will leave you never feeling truly confident or successful. The Root Cause: Confidence (based on external evidence) and self-confidence (an inner source of strength) are not the same thing. The root cause of most struggles is a lack of the more powerful self-confidence. Shift from Confidence to Self-Confidence: Recognize the power of the innate self-confidence of childhood and its transformation towards a less helpful confidence over time. Trading a constant search for external validation (desire for confidence) for self-confidence will unlock your courage and create natural progress. Transformational Journey: As you regain your self-confidence, you will rewrite your relationship with failure, viewing it as feedback rather than a measure of worth. It also requires that you train your brain to focus on gains rather than the gap between where you are and where you want to be. Mindful Living: Embrace the present, asking the self-confident question: "So what? Now what?" Witness the transformation in your relationship with fear, turning it into a tool for tapping into courage as you practice having your own back during struggles and using self-compassion.

Dive in as this story teaches you the often-overlooked ways to break free from your persistent emotions by using the empowering concepts she teaches about expansive self-awareness. Key Takeaways: Expansive Self-Awareness: Move beyond merely recognizing thoughts and feelings; by understanding how they interact and influence your actions. Generate intentional thoughts and feelings to create patterns that can naturally move you forward. The Model: Become aware of your Models. As you do, you'll see how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are creating the results of your life. This empowering tool is vital to unlocking your inner radiance so you can live a more intentional life. The Pieces of the Model: Become familiar with the pieces of the Model—circumstances, thoughts, feelings, actions, and results. Circumstances happen outside of you. Then, you have thoughts about your circumstances that triggers your feelings. Feelings drive your actions and actions produce the results in your life. Recognize this sequencing helps you stop blaming your circumstances and take back your power to choose. Clean vs. Dirty Pain: Stop indulging in dirty pain—resisting, fleeing from, or even fueling your feelings. Instead, practice clean pain, allowing your feelings and holding space for them in ways that are healing and enlightening.
