Over the years I've learned more and more about the power of the heart and it's easy to close off and protect ourselves. In this episode, I want to introduce you to the idea of happiness trauma, where we start to connect more deeply, love ourselves and love others. I conditioned myself to not live in the space of my heart. I used to close myself off to protect myself, but when you access your heart you become extremely powerful because you live from a place of creation and confidence. I went through pain in my childhood that caused me a lot of emotional pain and trauma - negative issues you don't resolve manifest into things such as anxiety, depression, and anger, but you can learn to understand trauma, enabling you to get back into the flow and force of your life. Breaking through into the positive place in your heart can be so powerful for your well-being - you feel improved energy and focus, and you’re able to be your best self. Heart Power When you recognize the coherence between your heart and your mind and you understand how they connect, you allow yourself to live in the space of your heart. Become intelligent in the subtleties of understanding yourself. This means you can ask yourself if you are in your heart or have you moved away from it? I used to genuinely say I was grateful or I had compassion, but I didn’t truly feel it because I didn’t know the difference between caring about something and actually feeling it. That can be a struggle for a lot of people. Now, when I go deeper into my heart space I well up and have tears running down my face because I've felt something so deep in my heart that it touched my soul. Imagine you have a plant in the center of your heart closing and opening. When it's open it’s energy force is focus, power, and energy. When it closes, your body tightens up. Your shoulders become tight and you feel frustration, irritation, and compulsion. You start to feel stuck, like nothing's working. This is when you're pessimistic instead of feeling hopeful, proactive, and confident. Link your feelings and your physicality so you’re aware of when your heart is open or closed. Create Happiness Trauma There is a positive aspect of trauma so you feel positive energy - I get into a space in my heart so I feel its energy and I focus on it, it changes my body posture, the way I think, and it changes the way that I see things throughout the day. It has a huge positive impact on my well-being. With the opening of your heart, you can create a positive trauma - a heart eruption! Ride that wave for as long as possible. The longer you spend in the space of your heart makes you more aware of the times when you’re not. I've conditioned myself to be in the space of my heart. It’s an ongoing journey through consistency and the depth of the work I do on myself and with my clients. It’s important to be very energetically aware of how you're feeling and how bad energy transmits to other people and how that energy affects business.

Is your life being negatively impacted by porn addiction? In this podcast I wanted to share the 4 steps that are very important on the path to recovery for an Entrepreneur. When you take these steps you will start to set yourself free. Porn is often a taboo topic – it can be surprising to learn that porn addiction takes hold of some people so much that it damages relationships, ruins jobs, or can even force a person’s business to close. My first experience with porn was when I found a magazine on the ground. I was walking by a river with friends when we came across it, it was soaking wet and covered in mud, but we were curious so we flicked through its pages. Later on, during my adolescence I discovered a pornographic game on a computer, the goal was to remove pictures so the image of a woman was revealed – I also remember giggling in the newsagents at top-shelf magazines like Playboy, but things changed when pornographic videos and film became easily accessible later on in my life. Addictive Patterns I had an addictive pattern of drinking on the weekends, smoking, and gambling. I would also take drugs. That was my cycle, but porn addiction was in there too becasue when I had low self-esteem, and I wanted a pick me up. Porn is the go-to pick me up for many people – you become so wired to it becasue you crave the dopamine hit, but suddenly you’re caught up in the cycle of it and it becomes addictive. It’s very common for an entrepreneur to lose connection to his purpose and then move into an addictive porn pattern. Watching porn gives you a dopamine hit, it creates the feel-good hormone, and you become addicted to that stimulant. Because that feels good, you do it again. Then it happens more frequently. Imagine a series of dots. Instead of the dot being spaced out once a week, it becomes once a day, and then it moves from once a day to twice a day, and then three times a day. Suddenly you’re in a pattern of doing something unhealthy. You may be thinking what is an unhealthy amount of porn versus a healthy amount of porn? My answer to that is you already know because you’re already sensing what feels right or wrong for you. Break Free When you get caught up in habit loops they can be very destructive for you and everything around you, but you can regain your power as soon as you start to break free of them. Once you recognize and uncover the deeper pain you’re feeling you can move into taking action so you can start to reconnect with yourself and then reconnect with other people, rebuild your life, and get your power back. You can change your habits. If porn is dragging you down, it’s causing problems in your relationship, nonaction in your business, and you have a lack of confidence, know that you can change. If you listen and you enjoy the episode then I would love to know that it impacted you.

I reached a turning point in my life when I experienced what it truly felt like to give to those who had little or nothing. In this episode I wanted to share with you a few stories of how giving back has helped me and how you can start to give back to others, especially if you're feeling down. Years ago when I was in Las Vegas for a mastermind we were given the task of spending a lot of money in a certain time frame. When we got to our final thirty minutes and we still had a lot of money to spend, I had the idea to give the money away. My heart was pounding as we got out of our limousine armed with hundred dollar bills - I remember the shock on people’s faces as I paid for someone’s grocery shopping and the tears of gratitude from a man who needed help; we found him with his car bonnet open so we handed him a $100 bill. That experience made a real impact on me and it was during that time that I started to learn the art of giving back. The Art Of Giving I learned more about the art of giving when I listened to ‘The Power Of Intention’ by Wayne Dyer. He explained that when you give to somebody you’re not just doing it for yourself or the person you’re giving to, but it's also about people observing your positive action - everybody benefits. You feel happier, the person you’ve helped feels happier, and the people observing what you’ve done feel happier too. During some of my darkest moments, I've got back to feeling myself by giving to other people. When I was going through a tough time I decided to give some money away. I went on social media and all kinds of people started to share why they needed $100 - what surprised me was the generosity of other people who came into the conversation wanting to offer things to the people in need. I decided to gift the money to someone who needed help to move from a low number on a housing register to score higher. A lot of kindness came through one social media conversation and it reminded me why giving was so important. At that point, I started to give more money and things away. Click here to find out what else I gave away... As I started to gift more things to people, and as I’ve evolved, I’ve replaced my scarcity mindset with an abundance mindset. It doesn’t matter how much or how little you have, you can always give to someone. When I’ve been feeling hopeless, like there wasn't a way out, the action of giving has brought me back to having a positive mindset and feeling good about myself and other people - if you're in a bad place right now, I would encourage you to give to someone else too. Cultivate Kindness It could be a coffee, it could be a thing, it might just be something you already that you can gift - maybe you have books sat on your shelf, and you want to give those away. Take an action today that starts you on your path of giving - however you decide to give to others, you can shift the way you’re feeling and light other people up.

Once upon a time, I had a full head of hair that made me feel super confident about myself, but then something happened and that changed how I felt about myself. This is an important lesson for anyone who has limiting stories about themselves. About 10 years ago during the drinking phase of my life, I was in a nightclub when a guy walked up to me and said “dude, your hair is thinning so much.” Even though I was drunk, it hurt, and in the weeks after I felt humiliated, inferior, and inadequate. I was already in a dark place when he hurt my feelings – I wasn’t in the financial place I wanted to be, I had a lot going on in relationships and I remember feeling confused about where I wanted to be in my life. Because I was super sensitive and emotionally weak I created the story that women didn’t like guys without hair and so I didn’t date for many years – I created a neural pathway in my brain and wired negative stories about myself that badly impacted my self-esteem and my confidence. Delve Deep When negative events happen to you they can cripple you, and for a business owner, it’s devastating. When an event happens to you it amplifies something going on deep within you that you need to tackle and resolve. You think just one is causing an issue for you but it’s never about just about one thing, there are always deeper issues – one issue can trigger you and tip you over the edge; when I started working on myself I discovered my deep lack of confidence, low self-esteem, and unhealed trauma were at the root of my pain. Change Your Belief Patterns When you go through a belief shift process you can create monumental changes and shift gears in your business and your life. It’s a powerful process because once you start to learn how to change your beliefs you begin to get your power back. If you’re in a negative mental spiral and you don’t know how to catch yourself in those moments or you don’t have the tools to lift yourself out, you start to limit yourself in the actions you take. You create a ‘thing’ in your mind that you tell yourself is real, but it isn’t real, it’s something you created. Think about this when it comes to your next level potential – If you’re struggling to take action and you can’t move through, it’s due to the belief system you have with yourself right now. If you want to break through a financial barrier or you want to be in a conscious relationship the belief system you currently have in place will determine your situation. Your belief systems change everything. Become aware of the things you’re telling yourself throughout the week, especially in the moments when you’re feeling depressed and anxious. You are in control of what you can do about your situation. When you commit to going deeper than you have gone before, you bring things from your unconscious into your conscious mind, enabling you to do something about it.

This one is for the coaches and consultants out there who may need to learn ways to get better results with their clients, or maybe you're someone who knows deep down you need to be incubated. This takes an honest conversation with yourself. People would approach me, and ask for strategy. I love strategy. I love building brands, taking an idea, scaling it, and growing it. I’ve done it with multiple six-figure and seven-figure businesses and I love helping other people do that, but as I started working with individuals we would always hit a wall. We would dive into the strategy, but something would cause a block – meaning they were unable to move forward. As we started having conversations about relationships and other personal issues, we would begin to unravel the real reasons for the block and lack of action. Mindset Matters Many years ago when I ran my company Fitpreneurs I made mindset training compulsory and it made such a big difference to people that I recently decided for anyone to work with me on business strategy, they must first go through a mindset program. You want to get to your best possible place if you want to scale your business. When you’re trying to get your business to the next level, you’re going to face a lot of mental challenges and obstacles – this is why emotional intelligence is so important. Many people think emotions have nothing to do with the success of a business, but when you need to take action on something in your business yet you’re unable to, you must break through the reason why you cannot take your next step. My goal is to bring awareness to the reasons why you can’t take action. If you’re in fear because you’re avoiding a feeling, the process of unraveling your emotions is critical in developing your emotional intelligence. Release Yourself When you release the weights that are holding you back, you start to clear out things emotionally and you gain new mental skills. Your new skills help you to prevent blocks from coming up for you in the future – or if blocks do come up, you can see them, be aware of them, and move past them. I want to help you maximize your investment. I’ve heard so many times that a program didn’t work or someone didn’t get results. I know of many people who bought training, and they didn’t complete it – not because they didn’t have the desire or they didn’t intend to, but they either didn’t have the drive to complete it, or they reached a block they weren’t able to move past. Imagine living in a world where you don’t have blocks so you’re able to work through information, take action, and get results! If you are a coach or a consultant, and you work with people, focus on this idea of maximizing results, tightening systems up, or even making big changes to what you’re doing, because in the long term, you’re going to get happier clients they’re going to get better results.

Your 'weakness' doesn't have to always hold you back. In fact, it can be empowering, if you start to look at your life from a different perspective. In this episode I want to share with you more about the process of transformation and a cool story from a call that I was on yesterday. When an entrepreneur, a CEO, or a founder, it’s important you can operate effectively, efficiently, and powerfully – all of these things come when you bring your unconscious into your conscious mind. It’s important to understand how transformation works so you can use it to move forward to the next level of your life and drive your business forward. Become Conscious When you become aware of something and it shifts from being unconscious to conscious it enables you to evolve as a person – your relationships improve, you become a better leader in your business, and you get to your next level financially. Your self-awareness is key. Your moment of power comes when you become aware of things in your life that you were unaware of – this is when you experience shifts. There are things you feel or do that you’re unaware of, and you have things you’re aware of but you choose not to take action on – these can be basic things going on within you that cause you to feel confused and anxious. Unconscious feelings can lead to depression because your mind doesn’t understand what’s happening within you, so having self-awareness means things move from your unconscious to your conscious allowing your transformation to happen. Empower Yourself When you allow your mindset to shift you appreciate that what you perceive as your weaknesses can be your strengths and you can use them to your advantage. You realize how you can become empowered, not disempowered by the traits you have, and you can gain momentum in all areas of your life. If you feel your weakness is caring too much about what people think, you can turn that around and use it as strength. You can use your caring personality, and your empathy, to create amazing conversations and connect with people on a deep level. This is a great power to have when you’re running your own business. Your strengths are key to your development and your personal and professional growth. You do yourself and your business a disservice when you think of yourself as having weaknesses instead of strength. When you suppress who you are it holds you back, it disables you, and you’re unable to use it as a strength in your business. Your journey in transformation means you’re continuously diving into things because they are brought from your unawareness into your awareness. When you become self-aware you gain new layers. You become stronger and you build a more confident version of yourself. You’re able to take more action and become more courageous. These are some of the traits that enable entrepreneurs and leaders to grow and scale companies without sacrificing their health.

Sometimes we really want a massage to help us feel better, but sometimes we just can't get around to it. But my little hack is to use meditation to clear the blocked energy most of the time from my next and shoulders. This short meditation today will give you a short 8-minute massage! :-) Sometimes you need a massage to help you feel better – you can also use meditation to clear blocked energy and release the tension you’re holding onto in your body. Imagine you’re face down on a massage table. Close your eyes, and every time you breathe out, allow yourself to drop into a place of inner peace and relaxation. The knots and tightness you feel are freed by the positive energy that passes down your neck, shoulders, and through your entire body. Every time you breathe out any tension you’re carrying is released, making the way for loving energy to pass through you. You feel inner peace, relaxed, and alive.

Are you currently experiencing depression as an entrepreneur? How do you become happy when you’re experiencing depression? In today's episode, I want to bring more attention to the solution as it's World Mental Health Day 2020 This is for you if you’re in a dark place. If life feels heavy, you think there’s no way out, and you can’t seem to get in a good headspace understand that people who seem to have it all together still have dark days – they just have the ability to quickly get back to feeling themselves. I’ve had many people come to me in really difficult times. Entrepreneurs can experience challenges, and COVID is a difficult event for many people, and their businesses – if you don’t have the tools to deal with it or the other things going on in your life and business, it’s going to be tough for you to work through. The Pressure Is On If you’re running a business you’re likely to be spending more time in isolation than most people. You have added pressures – you launched a business, you take risks, and you’re the creator of your destiny. It’s important you take care of your mental strength too. If things feel the worst they have ever been, know you can pull yourself out of your darkness – when you’re in a bad headspace, your mind spirals into negativity, thinking about everything you don’t have. What’s Your Perspective? When your attention is in lack, focusing on things that aren’t working as well as they could be, or when something unexpected happens in your personal life, your body shuts down. Your nervous system becomes exhausted and you don’t know which way to turn. A lot of business owners don’t put themselves first. If you’re in a dark place, you need to prioritize yourself and focus on relaxing your mind and body. You also need to celebrate yourself. Taking the leap to create a business takes courage – appreciate how far you’ve come! Even though I work on myself, I still have days when I’m in a funk. I used to feel down for weeks, but as I’ve evolved I’m able to pick myself up faster. My mum says ‘Simon, you always come back.’ You can come back to yourself and learn to pick yourself up quickly too. If you are in despair right now, I want to remind you that you have a creative power within you that you can access, but first of all, you must take care of yourself and pivot your attention to your own well being.

In today’s episode, I cover the important mindset switches that will help you to make a difference in your life. Crying Vs Suppression Of Emotion Crying heals. When you cry, you let the tears flow, and release the energy you were holding on to. Create space for other people to cry and never interrupt a natural flow of emotion. When you suppress your emotions they manifest into anger, rage, and frustration. Reaching Out Vs Doing It Alone Reach out for help instead of doing everything on your own. Failing to reach out when you’re struggling or trying to be too independent will hold you back. Apologizing Vs Being Stubborn Genuinely saying you’re sorry helps you to heal, but being stubborn, and punishing another person kills your inner spirit. Taking Time Off Vs Pushing Through Know when you should distance yourself when you feel cloudiness versus the mindset of needing to push through. When you continue to push through and you don’t take time off, you can’t re-energize and things start to break down. Numbing Yourself Vs Going Inward Doing things you know aren’t healthy for you such as drinking, smoking, and taking drugs creates toxicity in your body so you don’t feel anymore. Instead, have a healing mindset of doing things that are good for you, such as spending time in silence. Fear Vs The Answering The Call Fear that something won’t work out despite having the calling to do it instantly shuts you down, stopping you from having an abundance mindset. When self-sabotage creeps in you stop yourself from taking the next step forward. High Standards Vs Low Standards Raise your standards in every area of your life, health, attitude, and the things you do and create. You keep low standards because it feels safe. You stay at the same level as the other people around you and continue to play small instead of raising your bar. Allow other people to fall away if they need to. Entertainment Vs Investment Instead of spending money on things to entertain or numb yourself, choose to invest in yourself so you can grow and thrive in different areas of your life. This could be as simple as reading a book instead of watching TV. Lies Vs Truth A low personal standard is to be speaking or living in lies. Every time you lie, you take yourself further from yourself creating a black ball of energy within you that manifests into more lies. What is your truth? I would rather live in my truth, than play along with something and for it to be detrimental to me. Change Vs Skepticism Be open to change and expansion instead of being closed off and skeptical. If you’re skeptical about everything, and not open to anything you continue to have the same habitual behavior over and over. It’s a loop that holds you back. Toxic People Vs Healthy People Surround yourself with people who lift you up. To do that, you need to cultivate the place within yourself that lifts you up so you can lift others too. Fun Vs Isolation Do some of the things you did as a kid versus isolation. Don’t lose yourself in the race and the hustle, let out your fun, goofy side! Faith Vs Scared Having faith in yourself that you can create and build. You can have the life you desire instead of being scared and withdrawn. What will it take for you to have faith in yourself? Worthless Vs Proud Feeling like you’re worthless and you have nothing to offer is a lie you tell yourself instead of being proud. When you feel proud, you focus on your small achievements allowing them to build into something monumental. Confidence Vs Procrastination You can feel threatened by and less than other people, disconnecting you from your confidence; and when you’re not confident you don’t take action, you procrastinate. Remind yourself when you were at your most confident and feel that energy to raise your confidence again. Vulnerability Vs Closed Off It takes courage to be vulnerable and speak your truth. When you’re vulnerable you allow other people to...

In today's episode, I will be discussing the power of being held accountable. The moment I was truly held accountable, my life started to change dramatically. Do you wiggle out of it? If so what's the cost on your happiness, freedom and momentum? The biggest shifts I've had in all areas of my life financially, emotionally, spiritually, and in my relationships haven't come from easy, fluffy conversations. My turning points have come from challenging conversations I've had with my mentors and coaches - the people who held me accountable by holding my ass to the fire. It was difficult at the time, but I can look back knowing they were right. There's a deep emotionally and energetically intelligent level to accountability. There's also the aftermath - when someone holds you accountable you can look back and appreciate it was a pivotal turning point in your life. You Get Stuck If like most people you find it hard to ask for help, it’s likely that you’re avoiding feelings you know will come up - you desire a loving correction and you want encouragement, but when you get the opportunity to be held accountable you avoid it. Your mind finds a way for you to wiggle out of the opportunity, so your little problems end up turning into big ones. Accountability requires commitment and for you to let go of your pride. Breakthroughs happen when you can admit you have no idea why you’re showing up in a particular way and you trust someone to bring awareness to it. When I've been held accountable by my mentors it forced me to up my game. That lead my confidence to grow which meant I was able to make shifts in other parts of my life and create more opportunities. Good accountability means you’ll get more done in less time. You Take Action Milestones and deadlines get you where you need to be. The consequences in the Super High Performance Formula means you have to follow through and take action. Get honest and think about the things that you're not following through on and the long term impact that’s having on your life. When you avoid being accountable you don't get the benefit of staying focused and achieving milestones - I used to let things continue and pass by for years. Open yourself up to being accountable with someone that knows where you need to go and how to get you there; you'll shortcut your success, and the pain you’re feeling. Think about how accountable you are. Do you sidestep things you know you need to take action on even tough you know it will benefit you emotionally and professionally? Are you afraid of confrontation, do you think the things will simply go away and do you need someone to bring attention to your blind spots? Your blind spots pull you down, but when you’re aware of them, you catapult yourself to your next level of happiness. Without being made to be accountable are you going to get where you want to be? How long will it really take you? Find the right person to get you where you want to get, and then get them to hold you accountable. Be very conscious to find the type of energy for you, so they hold your ass to the fire, and there will be consequences if you don't follow through.

If you watched the presidential debate, you would have experienced a lack of self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and been extremely frustrated with not being able to listen to a healthy discussion. In this episode, I share why it happens and what you can do about it. Why do people interrupt others during conversations and how can you become aware so you stop doing it? I can become frustrated during conversations if I can’t hear what’s being said by each individual even though I’ve personally developed when it comes to interrupting other people. I still have the habit of interrupting people during conversation, so I appreciate someone bringing it to my awareness when I’m doing it. If we’re honest, we can all get better at not interrupting one another. When it comes to your business, working with your team, and your relationships, you can improve your conversations by not interrupting. A lot of people question leadership when someone is not able to listen. Look at why it happens, and what you can do about it, because interrupting others comes from a lack of self-awareness and emotional intelligence. Take Interest When you’re having a discussion and interested in hearing what the other person has to say you’re genuinely curious. A reason you might interrupt a conversation is because you’re hearing what is being said and you want to bring up something important to you. This is done with good intent because you’re excited, you want to participate and interrupt the conversation to get your point across so you can feel good about what is being spoken about. Raise Awareness If you get interrupted it’s ok to consciously ask someone not to interrupt you because in most situations, the person isn’t aware of what they are doing. It’s very important where your energy comes from – if you ask with frustration it’s likely the response you receive will mirror your irritation. When someone interrupts you, speak consciously, and calmly ask if they will let you finish. By raising their awareness you’re encouraging it not to happen again, but when someone doesn’t listen to your request and they continue to interrupt you, you can go into silence. When there isn’t a strong enough consequence from non-interruption it will continue throughout the conversation, so if you’re not being heard the presence of your silence will create the space for the other person to realize there’s no point in you speaking. When you have self-awareness you hear when people feel frustrated by the interruption. It’s hard to take people seriously and receive the words spoken when you’re interrupting people – you take them off track from what they want to say and you’re left with unhealthy energy. In some cases, interruption is an important thing. I consciously interrupt people during coaching calls to break language patterns. If I don’t bring awareness to a pattern, it could stop that person’s development in moving forward. Understand there are different cases in which interruption is important and there are many cases when you actually shouldn’t interrupt because you also gain respect by listening. Actively Listen Being conscious with somebody, really hearing what they say have to say and receiving their words, means you’re actively listening. When you’re not actively listening, you’re not actively present, the words spoken don’t register and you can’t properly reply or take an active role in the conversation. When you actively listen to somebody, you are present with them and they’re going to feel heard – a lot of people don’t feel they are heard. This is about true connection and true depth of connection. If you think someone is listening to you, but they’re not being present with you and they’re not actively listening, your words won’t go in so they won’t be received or understood. You may encounter this a lot in relationships when you get into a place where we’re not connecting with your partner or employees.

Do you want to get to the next level in business and life but struggle with certain areas? Maybe you're good at getting to the next level in some things but not others? In this episode I will break it down for you so you are clear about what to do. If you don’t understand the principles of getting to the next level in all areas of your life, you’re going to stay stuck, feel down, and be frustrated. It’s incredibly important to define what the next level for you is in your business. What does it mean for you to be able to get to the next level? If you don’t know what it means to you it can be really difficult for you to start to move forward and get there. My next level comes through my growth and journey; it’s about doing the things that scare me because facing them rewires my mind, letting my subconscious know I’m able to achieve them. I also like to have idea and go after them. That might be something I don’t doubt, but it’s just something I like the idea of. I’m a creator so I’m always coming up with ideas I take action on. I’ve achieved my next levels by writing books, creating programs, or setting my next targets. My success has come from doing what I’ve set my mind to – not procrastinating, but committing and taking action on it. I’m open to seeing weaknesses in myself. I’ve noticed when I was lacking personally and committed to changing, dealing, and solving it – the next level is very important in all areas of life, not just in business. When you work on yourself, you commit to developing yourself emotionally, energetically, and spiritually – because you have a better connection with people and there’s a positive impact on your business. When it comes to investing in yourself personally your tangible rewards come from the actions you take that you once didn’t. The deeper I’ve gone within myself, going to the dark places and dealing with emotions and difficult situations, has enabled me to get to my next level. It means going deep within you to deal and resolve something from your past. Once you remove and deal with it, you free up energy catapulting you to your next level – they are some of the most rewarding changes. When you commit to your next personal level your business improves. I would not have been able to the level of success in my business had I not dealt with my addictions, because my body would not have been able to handle the pressures. I love to create extraordinary experiences for others – online, or in-person through masterminds and events. I take people to their next level experience so they appreciate how it feels. Most people don’t do that for themselves. To be forced into a situation and an environment you would never normally put yourself in opens your eyes to another level. When the next level is a big goal, most people don’t break down that goal into steps. Your next level in terms of a big jump are the micro next levels and the mini-steps to get to that bigger goal. If you don’t have that, and you don’t understand that you have to get clarity, you have to seek and track down the person that’s already done it so you can get clarity on your next step. Neutralize You have to neutralize all of the parts that may be limiting you from moving upwards to the next level. That could bean an addiction, a toxic relationship, or a thought that is stopping you from breaking through. To neutralize something is to free up energy so you can move forward and not procrastinate. Execute To be able to get to the next level, you have to be able to take action. You need to take your ideas and move forward with them, even if they’re scary, even if you’re wondering if they are going to work out – while you’re stuck in nonaction and you’re not executing, and as more time passes, the more you fall into self-doubt. Xenial Xenial is the friendly relationship between people, namely, a host and the guest. The relationships you develop with people help to move you to y...
In this episode, I cover what happens when we get emotionally attached to a situation that really doesn't serve our highest good and how people pleaser syndrome can cause others to disrespect you. If you want to get your power back, listen to this episode and take massive action to get your life back on track. You can’t put it off, you have to have difficult conversations – if you don’t you’ll continue to live a life that’s not aligned with who you are. The emotional attachment you have with the outcome of conversations you want to have can stop you from moving forward and reaching your dreams. When you create stories about what’s on the other side of a conversation you put off the challenging conversations you need to have. Your body can shut down and you feel anxious, but to be able to move forward you just have to know how to reframe the situation. What are the things that you’re doing or not doing in your life because you’re afraid of the conversation and the emotion that’s going to come up from the other person? People-Pleasing If you’re a people-pleaser it’s common for you not to want to feel the emotion of a reaction. You continue to say yes when you want to say no – you want to leave a situation but you’re afraid of the conversation because you don’t want to let people down or you think things will be bad for the person you’re moving on from. The problem is by people-pleasing and avoiding the conversations you need to have you’re stopping yourself from living the life you desire. Your body will start to remind you that what you’re doing is not in alignment with what you want. The universal slap – anxiety, depression, sadness, and worry will keep hitting you until you face up to things. Look Within The child within you can get stuck in the fear of the conversation and not wanting to deal with it emotionally. Recognize the part of you not wanting to be honest, speak your truth, or continuing to self-sabotage. Once you see that, the adult within you needs to step up and have the power to stand within the situation, feel the emotion, and understand that a conversation is just energy in motion. When you speak your truth, you’re opening yourself up to a high wave of emotion to come back at you. It may not even crash, it may gently come back to you and you might be pleasantly surprised. Close your eyes and go through a scenario in your head – feel your emotions and allow the other person to get upset with you and let your feelings wash over you. The chances are your expectations will outweigh the situation. Own Your Life Identify the reality of the situation versus what you’re thinking. You may have created a story around how it’s going to play out, but what if the opposite is true? What if you have the conversation, you step into your power, and you’re confident about doing it? What if the outcome for them is far better than what you’re fearing? Your mind is so good at convincing you that the path you’re thinking is what’s going to happen, but the majority of the time when you have the conversation and you step into our truth and own it is that you find the reaction is very different from what you anticipated. The time you spend putting off conversations pushes your happiness and peace further away into the future. Your success, growth, and happiness come from the difficult conversations you’re fearful of. Own your life because you’re willing to make decisions. Even if they’re scary. You have a dream, there’s something you desire, a path you know you need to go down, but a part of you scared and the little inner child within you is afraid to speak up. You need to get into a powerful state, own it, and don’t put it off. Now would be a good time to have that conversation. If you wait for the perfect time, you’ll sabotage it so you avoid the conversation. Start to empower yourself with difficult conversations coming from the confident adult within you instead of your scared inner c...

Are you getting frustrated because you are not being listened to, or disrespected? Are you finding that the company is suffering because you can't seem to get a grip on the actions of employees and can't figure out why? This episode won't only help you to regain respect but it will also help with your energy, confidence and get your passion back. When you have respect for yourself and you receive it back from other people it gives you energy. You feel on fire! When I’m working with the CEO’s and entrepreneurs, the frustrations a lot of the time are that they’re not being heard or listened to, and the things they ask for are not being done. If that continues for long enough, your confidence as a leader starts to decrease, your thoughts become negative, and then you can make silly decisions,. There’s an increase in irritation and you can let people go because you feel frustrated. How can you get back to yourself as quickly as possible and run your company from a place of respect? Responsibility This positive exercise helps you to take responsibility, regain energy and get back into control. Take a piece of paper and draw a line down the middle. On the left side, write down everything you’re irritated by or frustrated with. Write whatever comes up for you – other people, employees, managers, new starters, and people you collaborate with. On the right side, write down if you had to take 100% responsibility for the situation what would it be? Ouch! Your ego will hate this because you already feel you did things or you asked, but to regain authentic power you need to take responsibility. Maybe one of your frustrations is that you’re not being listened to. How can you take responsibility for that? Could it be that you’re not connecting with that person and therefore they’re not listening to you? Were they onboarded properly? Have you been in a confident place so they don’t understand the consequences of the business? Take ownership and responsibility instead of being the victim. Completing this exercise gives you so much energy because you suddenly start to realize you can be in control. Empathy Increase the empathy you have towards the people around you. It can be hard to understand what’s really happening in other people’s lives if you position yourself in a certain way so you can’t have deep conversations or you’re not approachable – a lot of people think they’re approachable, but they’re not. You need to get a deeper level of connection with yourself. This is why I’m working with entrepreneurs and CEOs on their emotional intelligence and self-awareness to regain connection because a lot of these CEOs, entrepreneurs are burnt out. Maybe you’re burnt out and you’re struggling to connect with yourself. Because you’re so focused on what’s happening in your life, you struggle to connect and have empathy for what’s happening in other people’s lives. Systems When something breaks down, it’s because the system is broken. You lose respect because of a system that’s out of place. You need to look at anything you’re frustrated by. Is there a system you can put in place so a situation doesn’t occur again? I’m great at systems. I love looking at businesses and seeing how can I improve them. I’m always tweaking my programs. If you’re at the point in your life and your business that you’re operating that you don’t care for it you won’t optimize it anymore. When you were excited and focused you may have started to put systems in place, but over time you may have lost the desire to optimize those systems. Present The more I’ve removed distractions, the more I’ve been able to connect with myself and other people. That’s about being in a conversation with someone and caring; whether that’s with your clients or your employees. You can’t be present with someone if you have other priorities, or if you’ve got clutter spinning around in your mind. There’s a direct correlation between priority and...

Feeling stuck? In this show, I wanted to give you real-world examples of times in my life where situations happened but then I got back on track. This can happen to all of us, and I hope that one of these three stories really helps you. Like everyone else, I’ve experienced times in my life when I’ve had no idea how I was going to make it out the other side; I didn’t see a way through or have clarity around the situation I was in. I was stuck in a deep funk, but by taking actionable steps I created momentum again in my life and for the business I’d created. If you’re in a funk I want you to be happy and fulfilled. I want to catapult you, to help you get back to where you need to be for your business, for your team, for your personal life, and your relationships. Your Persistence Is Key When I was a personal trainer in 2005 I came up with an idea for my book called The Lunchbox diet. It had already come out as an E-book and had been on the cover of magazines in the UK and the United States. Penguin Books were very interested in The Lunchbox Diet and contacted me about having a book deal with them. As a recently qualified personal trainer, I was excited by the opportunity. Penguin Books had created a vision for me – I was in conversations with the publisher, but after a few months of talks, things started to quieten down. They changed their minds and decided they didn’t want to publish my book. l felt sad. It hit me hard because the prospect of my book being published and the excitement of seeing my book on bookstore shelves sparked something within me. I had a choice to give up or to pursue. I knew I wasn’t going to give up because I was determined to get a book deal. The frustration I had with the publisher drove me to pick up the phone – I’d already received media coverage for my ebook in publications; instead of phoning up publishers and asking for a book deal, I leveraged what I already had in terms of publicity to get conversations going. At my first meeting with a publisher, I received an offer of £15,000. With the confidence of getting that offer I knew I could get an offer from another company, and I got an offer of £25,000. Then I went to another and I got an offer of £50,000. At that point, I went to an agent and they took me on as their client. The agent created a publishing battle between different companies and I received a £120,000 book deal with Harper Collins in the UK. That process taught me the lesson of not giving up at the point when someone says no. I had to be courageous and ballsy. My first book called The Lunchbox Diet was published in 2009. Don’t give up, pick up the phone, and use the energy of frustration when someone says no. Persistence is key and it’s the thing that got me to where I am today. Turn Your Dream Into A Statement When I was living in the UK I wasn’t feeling happy with my life. I decided I needed to get away, so I booked a hotel just an hour and a half from where I lived to have a change of scenery and think about what I wanted to do with my life. When I arrived at the hotel I sat in the reception area with a notebook and pen, writing down what I wanted, and why I wasn’t happy. The dream I had of moving to the States kept coming to me, so I wrote down why I’d not already moved there. I’d been telling myself I wouldn’t get a visa and I wouldn’t be able to drive on the other side of the road. The stories I’d created were blocking me from making power moves to progress forward and be happy. What story is stopping you? What is your brick wall? I looked at my dream and turned it into a decision. I made the simple switch from dreaming to deciding to make it happen. I felt what it would be like to live in the States and wrote down the action steps I needed to take to make my dream a reality. If you’ve always had a dream In your mind, you won’t make the first action unless it’s a decision. Think about what you need to write down,
Would you like to change something about yourself that isn't supporting your highest potential? In this episode, I give you a quick and easy tool you can use with people you care about to help break through negative patterns and behaviors. When you’re an entrepreneur or a leader in business, and you’re committed to being the best version of yourself to grow and scale your company, it’s important you change any negative thinking patterns you have. Use this interruption technique to reprogram your mind. It’s simple – you can use it today and it has the potential to help you make some big changes to your life and business. Why I Used This Technique I used to have trouble connecting with other people – I wanted to connect with and meet more people because I wanted to build deeper friendships, but I would create excuses for myself. My self- sabotage was in the form of making two excuses – I would say I was too tired and too busy. As my self-awareness grew I started to notice the pattern I was repeating; I would be invited to meet new people who I wanted to connect with, but by making excuses I was self-sabotaging and I was keeping myself disconnected. Get Honest And Ask For Help Once I noticed my pattern I decided to change it. That meant I had to be vulnerable, and have a conscious conversation with someone I trusted so I could share my self-sabotaging habits. You may need to get over mental hurdles to open up and speak openly with someone you trust. I chose to speak to my housemate. The person you confide in needs to know why you’re asking for help and why it’s important to you. They need to know your motivation – they also need to be someone you know will be around to intercept you! I had a conversation about my patterns, why I was doing them, and why I wanted to change them. Explain why your patterns are not serving you, how you’re self-sabotaging, and what your outcome is. What’s Your Outcome? My outcome was to get out of my comfort zone, be around lots of new people, and to build new connections and friendships. You’re asking the person you trust to interrupt you, to raise your awareness and create space for you to make a different decision. During the times when you have these habits, patterns take over and at the time you don’t always have the awareness to stop them. You get caught up in the moment and let your desires take over. Afterward, you feel regret – you look back, and emotionally beat yourself up, wishing you’d taken a different decision. Giving someone you trust permission to interrupt you stops you unconsciously self-sabotaging. They create the space for you to pause, enabling you to consciously decide the action you want to take. You need to give the person you’ve confided in permission to break your pattern, but how they interrupt you is very important because it could act as a negative trigger. Be specific about the language you want to be used. When you’re interrupted, it’s also good to be reminded of the benefits you will gain or of the consequences. Ask to be reminded of the potential outcome so you can pause (ideally for a minute) and consciously make your choice. When you’re repeatedly interrupted, you become more conscious and you’re able to catch yourself. You take control of yourself and you’re able to make informed choices. The turning point happens when you create your new behavior and establish a new positive habit so you’re able to make the right decisions for yourself and your business on your own.

About five years or so ago now I took a trip into the Amazon rainforest for my first ayahuasca ceremony. In this episode I wanted to share my journey with plant medicines and how it played into me becoming a better, more grounded, happier leader and my views on what others should do if they are interested in taking the plant medicine path. I wasn’t the best version of myself when I was taking drugs, smoking, and drinking, but when I started my journey with self-development I committed to being the best version of myself. Now I do whatever it takes – I make investments for myself, to work with people I align with, to do the best for myself and my business. When I feel something I align with I don’t hesitate; I invest in it, book it, get on a plane, or go to the event that I feel called to attend. I don’t have much skepticism, I’m open to change and surrendering to what I’m called to do – taking fast action makes me a better leader in my business and lead me to experience plant medicine and ayahuasca ceremonies. Feeling Safe When I went on my first trip to Peru I went with the intention of killing the heaviness I was carrying within me. I’d previously taken ecstasy, cocaine, and party drugs so I needed to feel safe taking plant medicines; I was on the path of recovery and I wanted to clean myself up. I arrived at a location before the event and met with a dozen people. We were warned that on the previous trip they had been held at gunpoint along the river; I immediately wondered if I should turn around and head home, but I’d already traveled a long way and I wanted to see the trip through. There was a lot of anticipation for what lay ahead. During the evenings, the shaman lead the ceremony – everyone sat in a circle and each person was called to kneel and take the thick tea-like drink – it tasted horrible. Raising Consciousness We would experience each other releasing toxicity; the ceremony highlights parts of your life you want to ignore – the things you’ve done and things you’ve pushed away – helping you to see the changes you need to make. I saw a lot of things and I purged a lot. The subconscious becomes conscious so you can choose to transform and make changes to your life. You can expect to notice differences in yourself straight away when you’re on the journey of transformation and you go through intense, transformational experiences with coaching, attending events, or taking medicines. Often, it isn’t until you get back into your normal life when changes about yourself hit you. Losing My Addictions When you’ve evolved because you’ve spiritually woken up, parts of you fall away. When I came back from Peru, I noticed I was able to go out and drink alcohol without the need to binge. I don’t drink at all anymore, but at the time I was someone who needed to party; my first ayahuasca ceremony helped me to remove 80% of my addictions. It raised my consciousness level and brought things to my awareness. I felt like a different person. Addictions cause you to show up in your business and around people in a very toxic way and actions that aren’t aligned with who you are, make you unhappy with the person you became in those moments. You beat yourself up for your mistakes. I didn’t want that life. I didn’t want to hurt people and I didn’t want a life where I was continuously knocking myself down – I was feeling bad, and that was having a negative impact on my business and the people around me. Be Honest With Yourself It’s not easy to admit you’re an erratic, toxic person, but when you’re able to face that you can start to get help. You get called to the path of personal development; you hire a coach, you begin to meditate and become open to discovering holistic, natural remedies that are already in the environment to help heal you. Feel your desire to change, take actions to move forward and find a person or organization you align with. You’re going to feel resistance,
I recently attended an intimate event with Teal Swan that brought awareness to some important areas of my life that needed attention. This also plays a huge role in terms of leadership in my personal and professional life. In this episode, I cover the 5 different takeaways that may help you to become a better person and leader. I just had one of the most awkward, but transformational weeks of my life – I chose to work with the spiritual teacher Teal Swan at an intimate event in Utah because I knew she would challenge me. It was exactly what I needed to experience. Even though I want to evolve and grow I initially found it awkward – but then everything came together. There were a number of things I didn’t want to admit, but by admitting my truth I can serve you. Needs I thought I knew myself well, but I wasn’t aware my biggest need was to feel wanted. I knew events from my childhood lead me to feel like this, but I wasn’t aware of how my need to feel wanted was a huge need of mine and how that had made such an impact on my life. Have you ever stopped to think about what is your biggest need is? Self-Sabotaging When you’re interacting with people in personal development and transformation, as a coach or a mentor, you want to find things out so you can help them. This comes with good intention, but it can also cause problems. If you treat all your relationships with people like you want to fix them you end up sabotaging your relationships. I wasn’t aware that as I was trying to fix people I was pushing them away. I had the unconscious need to feel wanted; my safety net was being a coach to everybody because I thought if I could help, save, or teach someone something, they would see me as a worthy person. It was a huge issue for me to want to help and serve everyone I came into contact with – I’m going to continue to devote myself to serve my clients and help people, but I’m also going to live my life, be myself, and truly connect with people. Self-Expression I’m calm and confident in many different situations but I noticed how I suppress my emotions too. I’ve evolved from someone who used to unconsciously react in personal relationships by throwing toys out of the pram to suppressing my anger and saying nothing. I stopped expressing how I was really feeling because I didn’t want to upset the person I was with and I didn’t want to make them feel bad especially if they were going through a challenging time. By keeping my emotions to myself I wasn’t aware that I was suppressing feelings that I could have expressed in a healthy way. I learned the person I was showing on the outside wasn’t what I was experiencing within – I was disconnected, wearing a poker face that people couldn’t read. I’m now able to match what I’m feeling with what I express on the outside. Instead of holding my feelings in, I want people to see my sadness, anger, or joy. Are you positioning yourself in a certain way that pushes people away from you? If there’s a disconnection you need to start to express who you are and what you are feeling so people can experience the real you. Asking What Someone Needs Do you need to take ownership of your leadership? With leadership, partnerships, and especially in my intimate relationships, I felt the need to ask what someone needed so I could meet their expectations, instead of messing things up. Someone’s needs and desires are really important – asking a person what they need, are feeling or what they want are all appropriate questions unless you’re in a situation where the other person needs you to lead them. I had a fear of rejection and of screwing things up. When I asked what someone needed I felt it enabled me to meet their needs because I wanted to get everything right. I didn’t want to mess up because getting things wrong triggered past events – if I got something wrong I thought there would be rejection or consequences. Now I’m aware I can take control,
Do you feel that you have a shield that is blocking you from a deeper connection with yourself and others? Today's meditation is about starting to disarm that protective shield that you have had around yourself. When you create a hard shield to protect yourself from the world it blocks you from having deep connections with yourself and the people around you. This meditation takes you to an environment that’s relaxing for your mind and body so you can allow your shield to soften. Focus on the power of your heart to connect more deeply with yourself, and notice that as your shield weakens your energy becomes stronger. Become aware of the parts of your body that begin to feel lighter as you disarm the shield you created. It means the real you can shine through and you can connect with more people at your deepest level. To relax into more meditations click here.

Many business owners and entrepreneurs are really bad and taking time off and the impact of that is a huge amount of breakdown and overwhelm. Over the years, I've gotten a lot better at listening to what my body needs. In this episode, I want to share all of the reasons that I recently decided to take a week off with the intention of helping you. If you don’t take time away for yourself when you need to you’ll feel your life going downhill. You’ll struggle with your energy levels; your mental health, and your relationships will suffer, leading you to experience problems in your business. Entrepreneurs and business owners are notoriously bad at taking time off, but it’s crucial you take a break to have time for yourself, to recharge, and find yourself. You may find it hard to take time away because your ego encourages you to push through and carry on but that’s often at the expense of your health. Understand that if you don’t take the break you won’t be able to achieve the personal and professional outcomes you want. How Are You Feeling? When you stop doing what you love because it feels heavy, or you feel there’s a block in your business it can be a sign for you to take the break you need so you can come back stronger. A change of scenery can create mental shifts and clarity for you. When you disconnect and recharge, you come back with a clearer mind enabling you to tap into your creativity. Some of my best ideas have come to me shortly after returning from a trip away because I come back with a clear mind, having let go of things that were previously blocking me or weighing me down. I’ve also noticed that the biggest jumps in my business have been on the other side of taking time out for myself. I used to be bad at taking time off, but now when my intuition tells me I need to take some time I listen. The more I’ve become self-aware and connected with my body, the more I’m able to recognize the calling to take prolonged amounts of time away. On return from my trips, I always come back feeling re-energized and stronger. I’ve done different things in the past to recharge and disconnect; I’ve been away to attend events, taken plant medicines on trips to Peru, and been away for 10 days to sit peacefully for 10 hours each day in meditation. Despite reading, meditation, and using my knowledge to keep my vibration high I’ve recently felt a strong desire to take another break. It’s time for me to listen to my body again, to take time away, and experience different surroundings and people. What’s Your Reason? There may be one reason you want to take a break, or there can be many. Maybe you’re feeling sadness, or you’re under too much pressure? Are you attached to your phone too much and you need to disconnect? You might want to connect with new people and make new friends or your mind might need to go away to focus on learning or healing in a different environment? Perhaps your body is screaming for you to slow down? You may even need to go somewhere where you’re not around people wearing masks! I want to go away again because I feel a calling to go somewhere different to come back stronger for my clients and pass on what I learn. I want to be at my best and I’m going away because my mind, body, and soul is calling to relax and recharge. Every time I invest in myself, I’m able to go deeper with my clients and speed up the process of their transformation. Come Back Stronger I’ve noticed that when I’ve taken time away to relax or to grow and learn, the faster my clients have got results. When I’m recharged I have greater mental clarity; I fine-tune and tap into my intuition so I get into problems faster and help my clients resolve them. I’m always trying to keep ahead so I can bring a new skill set to the people I’m working with. I want to resonate with and provide as much value as I can to help as many people as possible. I want to come back stronger for my clients. I love to pass on what I learn,

Allow all thoughts to move away and observe how you can bring yourself back home to you.

Do you find it easy to get support for business activity but when it comes to what's real and raw for you personally you would rather handle it on your own? Deep down though, you know that it's not going to go away. In this episode, I share with you the different reasons why CEOs fail to ask for help and what to do about it. Were you the kid at school that put your hand up when you had a question? Or were you the shy one that kept quiet and you failed to speak up? If you asked my teachers what I was like prior being bullied they would have said they couldn’t shut me up, I was full of energy, enthusiasm and I was always asking questions! You may be running your business very successfully, but when it comes to asking for help with deep, personal issues you might feel there’s no way you can ask for help. Not asking for help will have an impact on many things for you personally and professionally. Once you’re aware of issues holding back your growth, you can resolve them and move forward. Issues Have An Impact You can hide your needs, but they will sit within you, bubbling away stopping you from living the quality of life you deserve. At some point they will resurface. If you don’t release them and ask for the help you need, events and situations will continue to repeat themselves. When you ask for help and allow yourself to become vulnerable, you start to untangle internal knots – they stop you from moving forward and can manifest into anger, lack of confidence, and anxiety. The sooner you ask for help and speak up, the faster you move forward. Shame And Embarrassment If you desire to ask for help, but you have shame and embarrassment, you’re going to deny yourself the opportunity of growth, and if you don’t find the courage to speak up you won’t bring yourself into alignment with who you truly are. Allowing yourself to be authentic requires vulnerability and courage. That may feel uncomfortable to you, but avoiding feelings keeps you feeling trapped and numb. Achieving a breakthrough means you have to step up, feel uncomfortable, and ask for help. Going Solo You might be someone who tries to figure everything out on your own but that tightness creates friction and unease. If you have the mindset of figuring everything out yourself, you need to ask yourself honestly how long you have been feeling the way you have? What has been the cost to your health and finances? It might be hundreds of thousands of dollars. I know if I’d not held my hand up to get the support I needed, I would never have taken my company to make the millions that it did. My ability to continue to ask for help defines me and plays a huge role in how I move forward and evolve throughout my life. The Illusion Of Feeling Good Understanding the illusion of feeling good is important because once you’re aware of it, you can notice when you’re distracting yourself. You can sit with a problem that needs to be solved for a long time. During those times there will be moments of happiness that mask how you feel. That’s a dangerous place because living in the illusion of happiness and using avoidance strategies to distract yourself, instead of feeling it and asking for help masks over the issue. Issues come up again unless they are dealt with at an emotional, spiritual, and energetic level. Healing, coaching, and awareness help you untangle the beliefs that cause things to fester in your subconscious, but it’s a double-edged sword. You know you need help, but when you’re in the illusion of happiness you don’t think you need assistance. You Feel Frozen Feelings of fear can become frozen in time – you want to receive help to get an answer to your problems, but you become stuck in fear. Past trauma and subconscious feelings can lock you physically so you are unable to do anything. You won’t raise your hand because something subconscious from your past stops you, but when you don’t have any negative associations you can ...
Vibration is your state of being and it's important to leadership because its how you operate in the world. It's how you connect and it's how you interact with others. In this episode, I share 6 ways that you can increase your vibration so you can have a bigger impact on the world. Think about the moments when you feel alive and on fire. During those moments your vibrational frequency was at its highest. You were aligned with something you loved, the people you were surrounded with, and you were thinking positive thoughts. Vibration is your state of being and the energy you radiate. You need to recognize your state of being because your vibration is critical when it comes to your leadership. If you can become energetically and emotionally intelligent to raise your vibration, you can make changes to your lifestyle to help to optimize your life and business. Your level of leadership will benefit because your positive vibrations will have an impact on your team and the people you come into connection with. You want to be in an energetic vibrational space where you’re drawing people closer to you, not pushing them away. To do that you need to plant positivity into your mind and take actions to raise your frequency. There are lots of choices you can make to improve your vibration. Food Making small tweaks with your nutritional choices will help increase your levels of energy and vibration. Be conscious about the choices you make – even if you already eat healthily there are ways you can improve your choices to boost your vibration. Every food and nutrient you consume has an impact on how you feel. Eating unhealthy food will make your energy levels and mood slump as your body focuses on processing any unnatural foods and chemicals you’ve consumed. That slump will have an affect on the energy you radiate. Print out that list of high vibration foods and make the best choices when you go shopping or you eat out and notice how you feel after you’ve eaten. Meditation The intention of meditation is to increase your vibration and energy. Listening to different meditations will have an impact on your energy and vibration and how they make you feel will depend on the state you’re in when you enter the meditation – some meditations hit you at the right time when you’re in the perfect headspace. The depth of your meditation and the length of time you are meditating for, will increase, not just your vibration, but how you move through the different planes of vibration and energy. To reach that you need to be consistent and have discipline, you have to be consistent and practice. Meditating for two minutes is very different from sitting with yourself for a longer period of time. The longer you can simply be with yourself, the more you allow your ego to drop away to free more space and energy to raise your vibration. If there is a particular meditation you notice shifts your energy and increases your vibration go back to it and do it again. Learning When I feel in low vibration I make the conscious effort to learn; whether that’s reading, watching a documentary on Netflix (a great one called Heal), or listening to a spiritual teacher like Wayne Dyer on Audible. Learning should feel light to you so choose things you feel aligned with. Choose topics that lift and inspire you instead of anything draining or heavy and be aware of the way you learn best; sometimes a book is better listened to than read. Exercise You know that exercise makes you healthier, but when you look at exercise through the lens of vibration it can give you a different type of motivation I exercise because I want to keep my body in shape but now I do it with a different intention. I want to be healthy and I want to interact with people in the gym, but exercise also improves my frequency. When you think about it exercise and being healthy it may put you into a low vibration, but try linking your exercise to the impact it wil...
In this meditation, I take you on a leadership journey involving your heart and moving from the back of a line to the front of the line. This will help to empower you and others and you energetically connect to yourself to the people around you. You will feel more confident and tap into a new sense of inner strength and power. The more you meditate, the deeper you’ll fall into being present and calm with yourself. You’ll also notice everything around you start to slow down. You’ll bring yourself into a higher state of consciousness and become more intuitive as your overactive mind falls away and your heart becomes your focus. Feel gratitude for every beat your heart has gifted you. As you connect with its beat and power, use it to connect with the hearts of all the people you come into contact with. As you connect with yourself and you lead from the front with the powerful energy of your heart, you will lovingly empower everyone you meet. Everyone will feel your heartfelt energy and that energy will radiate back to you. If you listen and you enjoy the episode then I would love to know that it impacted you.

Recently I was made aware of the terrible reality of child sex trafficking. In this episode, I wanted to talk more about my why, my mission, and how you can help. If you would like to watch the documentary Operation Toussaint, please click here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q8dYM90PJA&list=WL&index=2&t=0s When you’re a leader it’s important to be aligned with the things you feel deeply about. I recently went on a protest in San Diego in support of Operation Underground Railroad – a non-profit organization that focuses on rescuing children from sex trafficking. I don’t have children but the thought of child trafficking and pedophilia scares me. Supporting and raising awareness for Operation Underground Railroad is important to me because I’ve experienced trauma in my life and it had such an impact on my self-esteem and self-love. I’ve worked with and been in relationships with people who have experienced sexual abuse. Trauma leads to people having addictions, self-harming, and leading desperately unhappy lives. You Can’t Ignore The Truth There’s a commonality that runs through child sex traffickers – when pedophiles are arrested and interviewed, they talk of their desire for sex with children because they don’t get enough of a hit from pornography, so they look to youngsters. They start by being aroused by barely legal teenagers then move to younger teens, then children. In some cases the children are infants. I would highly recommend you watching this documentary from Operation Underground Railroad Child sex trafficking is sick and disturbing – some pedophile rings harvest children’s organs for sale. 2 million children have been trafficked through the sex trade, but we can fight it by working with oranizations who are working with governments all over the world to stop it. Operation Underground Railroad has saved over 4,000 children, but there are still millions of children who still need to be saved. Right now there are children living the most awful lives, their sole purpose being to sexually please adults. These children are spending their childhoods being abused. They have their childhoods snatched away from them and they lose their right to be innocent, playful, and free. It has to stop because all children deserve to live free and happy lives. What Is Freedom To You? One thing you desire as an entrepreneur is freedom. A layer of freedom is being able to live your life being free to do what you want when you want, but when you’re aware of the level of freedom taken away from these children, who are groomed and forced to stimulate the sexual desire of an adult, it makes you think about how important freedom is. It’s hard to uncover such an awful truth that’s going on all over the world. Who can even imagine being a young child, having that amount of freedom taken away from you, and being treated in this most horrific, exploited way? If you have children you need to be aware of what can happen. Children are stolen in seconds by the pedophile rings. It’s so important to know what to look out for and how you can protect your children from this awful trade. These children need their freedom. They need to be rescued, they need support and they need funding so when they’re rescued aftercare is accessible to them. There Is Hope The great news is that you can help to take down the organized pedophile rings, but it can only be achieved through awareness, looking into who is supporting it, and with as much funding as possible. A lot is going on in the mainstream news right now, but there are also so many other arrests of people in the public eye who are linked to organized pedophile rings that need to be taken down. I cannot turn a blind eye. I need to be able to do something to help – I give money to operation Underground Railroad and I recently registered to volunteer for them because I have the skill set to be able to help with the emotional aftercare for the children.
I'm in possession of a new motor vehicle and in this episode, I talk about cars, material success, and doing something that is fun vs buying something for validation. My new journey on the road in a different way has begun. I recently decided to bring more fun and joy into my life. A few weeks ago a Can-Am Spyder was parked outside my apartment block and ever since I’ve been intrigued by it. It reminded me how much I’ve loved riding scooters in the past and how much I love driving out on the open road. Notice Your Ego I used to dream of having a Ferrari. I even had a picture of one on my vision board in 2013. As soon as I moved to California I achieved my ambition and bought my black Ferrari California. It was a really nice car to drive, but my underlying reason for wanting it was because my ego needed it. I wanted people to know I was financially well off so I would park it strategically, where people would see it. As I went through my personal and spiritual journey, my ego began to dissolve. I started to find love for myself and I realized I didn’t need expensive things to validate myself. Letting go of the Ferrari was a huge turning point in my life. I learned the most important things were those that made me feel good, not look good. When I saw the Ryker it represented something entirely different to me. I noticed how differently I felt when I saw it – it looked like fun! I felt that in my body and it excited me. What Excites You? Investing in a Ryker has sparked excitement in me. It’s so much fun to ride. I take short trips on it and it allows me to get away from my computer and get out into the fresh air. When you feel good you’re in a better position to generate more revenue and perform better in your business. Doing things you enjoy and having fun makes you feel more positive which leads to you having more confidence; because of that, you start to take different actions in your life and business. My philosophy when it comes to taking leaps is to act on my impulse. If something feels right I move forward with it. If it doesn’t work out I change it. I realize the importance of getting away from the computer, especially if I’m feeling stressed I can now take time for myself to have some fun. I put my helmet on, take the bike out and come back feeling refreshed. I’m strategically doing everything I can to bring fun into my life and I feel this is one of the best investments I’ve made in myself. Think about the underlying energy and intention you have behind the things you want. You probably have something you want that you can pull the trigger faster than you expect. If money is stopping you, set an intention and decide to do it by a certain date – use your energy to drive you to get there. A new investment in yourself could be exactly what your soul needs. After you take your trip of a lifetime or you make your purchase it may open up a new community of people to you. Take a ride of your life whatever that is and get the fun things you desire. You deserve them! I would love to know what your fun thing is going to be. Message me at SimonLovell.com If you listen and you enjoy the episode then I would love to know that it impacted you.

In this meditation, I will help to calm you and relax you and help you move into the zone and focus of an animal. This may be slightly different from what you're used to, but can be very powerful for developing presence and focus. The beginning of the week is the perfect time for you to ground yourself, feel relaxed and unearth the animal deep within you. Lose the tension in your body so you are at peace within your mind. Allow yourself to be grounded, centered, and calm so you feel the energy flow through your body. When you enable yourself to be truly present, you can tune into yourself to reconnect with your inner animal. Look through the eyes of the animal within you and notice the sensations in your body as you feel your strength, power, and vision. It’s easy to forget the superpowers that naturally reside within you. When you reconnect with them you have additional strengths you can utilize in your week.

Do you struggle to stand up for yourself and other people end up walking all over you? If that's you, you will enjoy this episode I give you some actionable tips on how to move through this struggle. Often it can be from bullying or previous events that cause us to not honor our views. Everyone should have the confidence to stand up for and be themselves. When you’re a leader or an entrepreneur, speaking up and standing up for yourself is especially important. Being in alignment with your business or product and being able to speak up for your beliefs means you can express who you truly are and attract the right people to your services. When you don’t allow yourself to speak your truth or be who you are and you let people walk all over you, you’re doing yourself an injustice. If you feel something but you don’t say it, you’re not in alignment. Agreeing to do things you don’t want to will cause you to feel frustrated – living your life based upon what other people want isn’t right and when you’re in business, not being able to speak your truth and avoiding problems is detrimental to your personal and professional growth. Not standing up for yourself, especially in business is counterproductive and you can’t hope other people will recognize your needs. People-pleasing or keeping quiet is draining mentally and physically because you’re always working against what your mind and body needs to express. Access Your Power A lot of people struggle with verbalizing who they are. It’s worth thinking about why you don’t feel you can speak up. If you’re always the agreeable person you may have experienced situations in the past when you’ve been too afraid to be who you are or say what you’ve felt. A situation could have been so intense that at that moment you were shut down and you weren’t allowed to speak up. (A child who is shut down will find it especially hard to express themselves as an adult.) I love to dig deep, to get to those events, and deal with them so that you can access your authentic power, find the strength within you, and express yourself. Trapped emotions and feelings are extremely detrimental to your health. When you’re not in alignment your body feels it. You feel trapped, you lock up and take on a submissive posture. That’s not the posture of a leader. Be Courageous If you’re in a boardroom with lots of people and something doesn’t resonate with you, but you feel under pressure and you continue to stay quiet, you’re doing yourself an injustice by not expressing what you feel. When you find the courage to speak up, your passion and enthusiasm can send shockwaves through other people to wake them up to something they haven’t seen. Even if other people don’t agree with you, they see you have the courage to speak your mind. When you continue to ignore, suppress, not speak up or stand up for yourself, as time goes on you can get extremely frustrated. That frustration will cause you to snap. Your relationships in and outside of your business will suffer and it will affect all sorts of things in and outside your business. You don’t want to be in situations where ideas get shut within you or you do something that’s not in alignment with who you are or what your business represents. Find Your Fire Standing up doesn’t mean you have to shout or be angry. You can find your fire, speak with presence, and keep the conversation playful. You don’t need to turn the conversation sour or make other people wrong. If you struggle start by expressing to yourself how you feel. Look in the mirror and with confidence practice phrases you feel comfortable saying. Say them again and again, each time with more power and confidence. The next time you feel something come up, you’ll notice how you feel better equipped to express yourself calmly and confidently. Look people in the eye and break your old patterns with presence and confidence. How you say it and where it comes from within y...
Today I get a bit raw with you as I share some personal challenges and ways that I want to grow myself. I know is this can be a real struggle for others so wanted to share with you how I've grown in making more friends and my commitment to more meaningful friendships and deeper connection with others. It’s really common to feel lonely and it can be really lonely being an entrepreneur. You want more friends and to be more connected. When I was bullied as a kid it was a tough time for me and I noticed friendships with men were difficult for me. I was bullied by boys – so those friendships didn’t come naturally or feel safe to me and guys don’t find it as easy to reach out to guys as much. My friendship and loneliness journey for me over the years has been tough. I’ve got friends, but deep down within me there is still resistance. When things happen now, I’m aware of them. Things still grab me and take me down, but I get up faster. If you struggle with friendships, and you find yourself lonely there are some actionable tools you can use to help you. Don’t Wait You can feel like people don’t like you or you wonder why people don’t reach out or get back to you. That can cause you to stop reaching out because you’re waiting for people to reach out to you. You’re waiting for someone to ask if you want to go for a coffee or to an event. You see what other people are doing on social media and wonder why you weren’t invited. That can trigger negative emotions; if you’re not self-aware enough to catch them you can downward spiral into a depression. Negative feelings can lead to unhealthy soothing with drugs or alcohol. I go to meditation now to bring myself out of those times. Accept All Opportunities When you’re an entrepreneur, you’ve got a lot of work and you’re feeling tired it can be too easy to lock yourself in and not go out or socialize. It may be timing or your emotional state that stops you from wanting to leave your computer. Making excuses will keep you locked in your situation. I’ve started to start to say yes to everything I’m invited to; if you refuse an invitation once, people assume you’re not interested. You never know what one invitation will lead to. When you accept all invitations it means you’re opening yourself up to new opportunities and people. I’m naturally an introvert. I used to find it difficult to have eye contact with people and that would create anxiety for me. My phone would be the perfect distraction to look at instead of connecting with all the people around me. I would go to the food table at events to avoid speaking to people instead of taking the opportunity of being around people who were the life and soul of the party. They are great people to be around because they introduce new people to you. Reach Out It’s easy to become disconnected, but it is also easy to reconnect. I met a friend the other day. He liked my Facebook post and it reminded me of him. I sent him a text message to catch up and two days later, we met for lunch and reconnected. Yesterday I received a text message from him with an invitation to attend another event. From that one trigger I felt and took action on, I now have another opportunity to meet new people. Triggers are all around you. Use your trigger opportunities as your reminder to reach out. You know you feel lonely at times, so reach out and connect because other people feel isolated too. What’s Your Behavior? Everyone has habitual behaviors of connection. You need to be hyper-aware of the beliefs you have in place. What story do you have around friendships and loneliness? When it comes to loneliness, your routine is really important. What do you plan, what’s on your calendar? Identify what your go-to is when you feel lonely. What is the thing that you immediately do when you feel isolated, what do you do next? If you feel lonely and then go to food, what can you swap that with?
Tap into that part of you that is powerful beyond belief. This meditation is very different from the previous weeks and will help to soft you into a new place of confidence and authentic power. Featuring an epic music score, let me take you on this journey into being the best that you can be to serve and impact the world. If you’re consumed in your business it’s easy to forget who you are, what your deepest mission is, and why you’re doing what you are. Stop, relax, recenter, and feel your loving energy throughout your body. The more you can feel that energy and allow it to fill you up the more you will deeply connect with yourself and begin to feel the love you have within your heart. Let that love engulf your body and allow it to expand so you feel more powerful and confident, enabling you to brush off any negativity and be unshakeable. When you connect deeply with yourself and with the love within you to remember your ‘why’ and the people who need you the most. Let love guide you through your week so you can easily move past challenges and show up in your business as the unshakeable leader you are. Remember people believe in you, and the world needs you, To take the 6-week meditation journey with Simon head to www.simonlovell.com/shp If you listen and you enjoy the episode then I would love to know that it impacted you.

For some people, fights about money can cause self-sabotage, but for others, they can lead to success. In this episode, I wanted to support those who are on their journey and may not yet have tied family fights about money to their success or 'failure' so far. Once we can gain awareness it can be incredibly powerful and ultimately, freeing. Could your deepest why be linked to fights about money? It’s worth taking a look at your emotional connections to money especially if the thought of it causes you stress. Finances can cause you to have negative feelings, create fights in your relationship or it can make you feel emotional. Money is the driving force behind many entrepreneurs and their businesses but it can also trigger people and cause problems. It can be a very emotionally charged topic. It can be a big drive in your success because you don’t ever want to experience situations again and it can make you want to be the catalyst for financial change. I wanted to be in a financially strong position and I’ve worked hard to achieve that. From a young age, I was determined to be successful, make money, and change my life and other people’s. When I was young I remember hearing a lot of fights between my parents, and I was often the cause of them. I was a pestering child and I wanted everything. At the beginning of my entrepreneurial journey, those memories would trigger me; they were the driving force to keep me going so I could have whatever I wanted. Your Emotions Drive You Your triggers are really important because they signal to you the things you need to look at, to heal, and deal with, but they can also be a signal of something completely different. When you feel an emotional trigger, it’s not always something you need to solve; the emotions you have around money can activate feelings of your deepest why. The strong emotions you experience when you’re having conversations about money are because they trigger something within you that reminds you of why you’re doing what you’re doing. That’s important because it brings you back to your center. When there’s so much drive for fame, for money and power, your best reminders come from the moments when you hear or see something and it strikes you so strongly you feel it in your core. That emotional feeling that catches you is your why reminding you. Nothing that needs to change or shift within you. It’s a powerful and healthy reminder of why you’re working so hard. What’s Your Driving Force? There are different types of drive in business. If the drive you have is to prove people wrong or to make a point and you’re driven by underlying unhealthy energy, you’ll feel drained very quickly. You can become successful that way, but it’s not energetically sustainable. Wanting abundance for positive reasons is a healthy way to drive your business forward. Helping other people is a great way to boost your emotional energy. When you are driven to help and give back to other people it feels more rewarding than hoarding all your money for yourself. What is driving you in your business? It may be several things, but what’s your underlying drive and the reason why you got into the industry you’re in now? If you don’t know what your why is and money is your only drive and there’s not a deeper why behind it, you will begin to struggle. You’ll feel confused about why you’re stuck and not in momentum. It’s important to become emotionally and energetically intelligent because the next time you get emotional around something, there may not be anything wrong you need to fix. There will be times you do need to heal, but there will also be times when you’re struck by emotion because your soul is speaking to you, and you’re reconnecting to your deepest why. Sometimes you lose connection with all the good you’ve done, and the results you’ve achieved. Re-sparking that fire can simply come from identifying that emotion.
In this show, I cover 14 red flags that are often ignored and failed to be addressed mostly in business but certainly also impact other relationships. Once you can start to address these more quickly you will start to feel lighter and happier. Sometimes we let things slide of a number of reasons and one of those is because we are emotionally attached. When we address the red flag it shows the strength of character. A red flag is a signal for caution and when you ignore it, you feel pain and frustration and it happens a lot in business. When it happens in life, it can easily spill over into your business. Why? Because we get drained. The first step is to acknowledge the red flags that come up and take responsibility for the times you ignored them. If you’re a CEO, an entrepreneur or business owner and you’re on a journey of growth, it’s important you bring awareness to when you shift blame onto other people. Many red flags are in relation to business, but they also relate to personal relationships and things outside of work. If there are red flags in your business, it’s likely they will be happening in your personal life too. When you have emotional intelligence you can remove your emotions from situations so you don’t ignore red flags, let things slide, and allow the thing you should have dealt with to become normal. If you’re in a conversation and you feel a shift of energy within you, that’s your red flag; when you’re in tune with your body you can nip your red flags in the bud quickly. If as you’re reading this you realize you need to address something, please do it. In many cases, a red flag that came up three months or ago a year ago is still happening now. Address it and deal with it now. A red flag is not always the reason to stop or end something. A red flag is a signal to be cautious; it’s something you need to notice because it keeps repeating itself so you need to shut it down or disengage from it. Your personal experiences will bring up red flags because you’re going to have certain things you don’t deal with because it brings up too much pain from your past. A lot of your red flags come from the experiences you’ve gone through. Sometimes the struggle of growing a business is that you experience new things that are painful – you may have been betrayed, or a team member may have caused problems and you know it’s something that can’t happen again. At the same time, you also need to be aware that if something has happened in the past, you also need to be flexible in understanding that the same experiences might not happen again with a different new person. You don’t want to bring negative assumptions into your next relationship. That’s not healthy. I’m going to with you a number of red flags that maybe you can start to spot in the future. These are the red flags to watch out for. 1. Values Simply Don’t Align A red flag is something completely outside of your values. If someone says or does something and it doesn’t align with your values or how you want to operate your business that’s a huge red flag. This is definitely about personal integrity. If I’m interviewing someone and I ask a leading question and they respond with something completely against my values, integrity, and how I do business I won’t hire them. 2. Speaking Down To You How people speak to other people is really important and definitely applies to life and business. If you have a conversation with someone and they constantly put other people down to make themselves look better, that’s definitely a red flag. People can have bad days and everyone gets frustrated in certain situations, but it’s still a flag. 3. Withholding Payments Withholding is about the lack of integrity, When someone withholds payment or a service without an explanation or for a reason that doesn’t feel right to you that should raise a red flag for you. 4. Underdelivering People who don’t deliver the promises they made or fail to be a pers...
Today I take you on a journey from the mountains of Nepal. Close your eyes and drift into nothingness to spark creativity and bring yourself to the wonder of peace and harmony. You get to be in this space of calm and awareness as you use this meditation to access a part of you that has amazing ideas that can take you to another level in your business. Creativity sparks and your best ideas unfold when you’re grounded in nature – you can picture something magical even when you’re not there. The tranquility of nature brings you into self-awareness. As you slow down you become present and allow space for your best ideas to come to life. Sometimes ideas drop from nowhere, but to expand your mind you need to relax your body and fall into the space of your beating heart. When you allow everything to fall away you drift into nothingness to ignite your imagination and bring yourself to the wonder of peace and harmony. Letting go enables you to access your subconscious mind to take yourself to another level in your business. Expand your mind to a new depth so you’re guided to drop deeper into nothingness and allow your gifts and the magic within you to unfold.

Back in 2018, I went through a big spiritual awakening where I came home to my true self. In this episode, I talk about releasing shame and what happens when you finally start to speak your truth. Do you have a secret, something that you have been holding back? Most likely you have a black ball which could be shame, embarrassment, or guilt. A black ball launched itself out of my hands. I didn’t throw it. Everyone looked at the ball on the floor and I felt massive relief because I’d just let go of the thing I’d felt shame about and I never wanted to talk about. Many people feel heavy and hold on to pain from events in the past and that can impact you living in the present moment. Holding onto the feelings of shame and embarrassment makes you feel heavy. I struggled to find myself for a long time and I didn’t feel I was being true to myself. I spent years searching for the real me and I was so confused. One Event Shifted My Life I don’t think that any events are by coincidence. I think the universe is always presenting opportunities to evolve and it’s a choice whether you take them or not. The invitation to a party, a mentor that shows up at the right time, or the person that you have a conversation with. Suddenly you get an opening to change, admit the truth, and take an opportunity. I suffered a lot with social anxiety so I decided to give improv classes a try. I became friends with someone from the class and I was invited to do some connection games with a group of people at his home. That event has had such a massive impact on my life. I loved the idea of connection games; networking events usually involve surface-level conversations, but connection games go deeper so everyone has the opportunity to connect. A safe, confidential environment was created and we began to play games to help everyone settle in. As the games moved on, a game called ‘anybody else?’ began. We all made a circle and took it in turns to stand in the middle to say something personal. Anybody else who felt the same way then stepped into the circle to support the person opening up. It was very powerful because it’s easy to think you’re the only person going through something. When other people admit they feel the same way it makes you realize you’re not alone. Courage Destroys Fear It’s powerful supporting other people in their courage. Courage is very important when it comes to getting to the next level because it helps to destroy fear. When you move into courage, you can leave fear behind and step into a new place of authentic power. A guy stepped into the circle and spoke about something I had also experienced. He asked the question ‘anyone else,’ but I noticed resistance. I couldn’t step in. I was frustrated with myself for a couple of reasons. I had invested over $250,000 in personal development. I thought I was very self-aware. I also thought I had a lot of courage. When this man had the courage to admit his truth I couldn’t step in. Physically my body was not able to move. I couldn’t give him the gift of support and let him know I’d been through the same experience. I wanted to do that, but I couldn’t. My conscious mind wanted me to do something, but my subconscious was locking me to the floor. As the day went on I continued to feel more frustrated with myself. I felt I had missed a window of opportunity. The Black Ball Later in the day, everyone was sat chatting and I noticed a black juggling ball on the floor, I picked it up and began playing with it. I subconsciously fiddled with it, moved it around, and threw it up and down. It was an outlet for my energy while I was thinking about the reason why I didn’t step into the circle. The final connection game was called hot seat. We sat in a chair and opted for mild, medium, or spicy questions to be thrown at us. Everyone who sat in the hot seat wanted spicy questions. They wanted to get the most difficult questions.

Do you blow up and get angry in situations that are causing pain to yourself and others? In this episode, I want to explain the main root of anger and how we can start to deal with it at an emotional and energetic level. If you want to be a calm, confident entrepreneur then this episode will be for you. The steps I took to heal my anger through emotional & energetic intelligence (EEQ) that literally changed my life. My blood used to boil and a man emerged I didn’t even know. I would be so enraged that I would blow up on people, completely unaware of the cause but very aware of the effect it had on my relationships, my happiness, and my business. In addition to feeling angry, I felt guilty for the pain I knew I caused to others. In fact, I missed quite a few business opportunities because of this. Let’s be honest, no one likes to lose their shit. When you don’t understand why, it’s even more painful… The problem was, I didn’t understand what was happening within me. It can be incredibly painful for anyone holding onto anger. But the reality is, anger is energy, and just like a balloon, you can pop it so that you don’t react in the same way. People think that they have to be angry forever. If anyone ever says “it’s just the way I am”, then know this is denial. Attacks that arise from rage usually leads to beating yourself up emotionally after an incident. You may turn to alcohol or drugs because it soothes and calms you down – once you’ve relaxed, you don’t know how to deal with the situation and you feel like you’re trapped in a very dark place. That was my experience. It’s a dangerous cycle. The Healing Process 1. One of the first steps in healing is to hold your hand up and admit it, own it. That is actually getting your power back over it but this can be a challenge due to shame. You should never put someone else through the pain because you cannot manage your emotions. Become emotionally intelligent by admitting to yourself how you are negatively impacting yourself and other people – decide you want to react to people calmly and handle yourself with dignity. First of all, we need to recognize the difference between managing anger and ‘ tools vs energetically shifting the event that caused it. Meditation, for example, is great to calm you down, but if we don’t get to the root, you will always need to calm yourself down. That being said, tools are very important… Wanting to be aware of new ways to manage your anger is great, but there is no excuse in attempting a new approach and then slipping back into repeated patterns of negative behavior. 2. Be Aware Of Your Triggers When you’re having a good day and suddenly something sets you off, that is when you’re being ‘triggered.’ That event set off the rage inside you – causing your physiology to change. You were in a state of calm, feeling relaxed, but your blood starts to boil and parts of your body clench. At this moment your ego is trying to protect and defend itself. Recognize what has triggered you and as fast as you can apologize. Your ego likes to punish people for long periods of time, but you can start to resolve things quickly – once you’re aware you’ve behaved angrily apologize to put right the situation as quickly as possible. Your ego won’t want you to do that but the next time it happens, now that you’re aware of it you can immediately take ownership. If I say something I shouldn’t have, I quickly catch myself before the other person has time to react. I’ll acknowledge how my ego was compelling me to try to validate myself or justify something. It’s not weak for someone to do that. If someone was to snap at me and catch themselves I’d have so much respect for them! 3. Become Aware Of The Cause The big epiphany for most people is when they realize the trigger is from an event in their past. Once you get clarity on what the trigger is, you can start to change, but if you don’t believe you can change you will always co...
Have you ever been in a very uncomfortable situation with a client and not know how to handle it? In this episode, I'll explain to you how to handle difficult clients so that you can create calm more quickly. This will help you in the future especially as you're starting to grow and scale your business, all based on personal experience. Are you ready to handle some conflict consciously? Let's go. Situations happen out of the blue. You’re minding your own business and something can happen to put you in a tailspin to make you anxious. When that happens you need someone to be there to listen to you. If you’re a coach or you’re in business it’s likely you’ll experience someone attacking you at some point. People get frustrated and they blow up at you. Everyone gets emotional and everyone handles situations differently. Something may have happened to you in the past and because of an event with a client, you find it difficult to move your business forward. I’ve had situations when I wasn’t emotionally strong. I looked at the situation in a certain way; it was devastating to me and it stopped my business growing. You may have already dealt with situations in your business that made you feel uncomfortable and you want to know why they happened? And as your business grows, more situations are going to come up. It’s important to know how you can deal with them differently. It’s Not About You Everybody responds to situations differently. You could work with a client for a long period of time and then one thing triggers them; they start to act in a certain way and you’re completely blindsided by it. You take them on and you think they’re really kind, they start your program and suddenly they are angry, maybe even nasty and manipulative. You wonder what’s going on? Sometimes it’s not about you. It’s nothing to do with what you said and it’s got nothing to do with your program or process. They have other things happening in their life, they become triggered and it’s the final straw. You’re just in their firing line. It’s like when you’re in a relationship and you’re blowing up about the toilet roll or the messy kitchen, it’s really nothing do with that. It’s about the issues that haven’t been expressed. Get Conversations Flowing A client attacking is in direct relation to the things they feel, but they don’t talk about. That’s why it’s very important, especially when bringing clients that you make it clear you need to have authentic, transparent communication; that may be a new concept for some people. Most of the time when you’re attacked it can come from nowhere. Being attacked can come as a complete surprise when nothing has been verbalized leading up to the attack. If issues were raised, but you didn’t deal with them maybe you do need to take responsibility. It’s not fair for them to attack but it is fair for them to speak to you about it calmly. You have to hold strong boundaries when someone comes at you with negative energy, language, or actions. I know a lot of coaches and consultants avoid difficult conversations and they let things pass because of their attachment to money – you’ve signed the deal, and because the client is paying you you let things go. If you allow yourself to be attacked, it’s going to affect your relationship with your client and it’s going to affect your ability to want to help them. Your feelings about the situation will also affect your business and personal relationships. Do you avoid difficult conversations? I love to dive into difficult conversations, especially when my clients want to avoid them. I hold my clients accountable in situations they feel uncomfortable in and typically avoid – people have a habit of bailing from situations they don’t want to be in when it’s difficult. People with opposing views can find it difficult to hold conversations without losing control. If you are good at keeping calm in difficult conversations you are the best teacher to th...
Manifesting money comes from putting yourself into the right energy and the sound 'AH' is an important frequency for this session which you will want to speak out loud. This may seem strange if it's your first time. It's also important that you surrender to when the opportunity will come up but you will notice that you will start to attract more quickly by using this technique. Every sound you speak omits a different frequency. The sound and frequency of ‘ah’ is used to manifest your desires, and focusing on your third eye helps you to connect your mind and body. Listening to the sounds of ‘ah’ and feeling its vibrations while you relax, help you tune in to your true desires. Instead of thinking specifically about what you want to manifest, go into the feeling of having what you desire and what that really feels like for you. Truly believe you already have what you want. Notice what starts to show up in your life and don’t miss any opportunities that come into your life when you apply this practice to your daily meditation.
