What do you do when God starts revealing unhealthy patterns in your life—and suddenly you can't unsee them? In this episode, I close out the people-pleasing series by talking about what happens after awareness comes. We discuss the discomfort that can come when God begins uncovering deeper emotional patterns, why healing often feels disruptive before it feels freeing, and how to take your next step without fear or shame. If you've been feeling stirred up, emotionally exposed, or unsure what to do with everything God has been revealing lately, this episode will help you understand why awareness is actually an invitation into healing—not condemnation.

Ever sat in a meeting where the same problem gets rehashed for the nth time, only for nothing to change? Welcome to the world of organisational inertia—where analysis paralysis, over-collaboration, and a pathological fear of doing anything turn workplaces into graveyards of good intentions. This week, Jimmy and James dissect why companies (and the people in them) would rather sit on a nail than move an inch, and—more importantly—how to stop the rot.From the “Plan Z” demand for impossible certainty to the “frozen middle” of middle managers trapped between reality and corporate delusion, they expose the absurdity of systems that reward inaction and punish risk. But it's not all doom: they also serve up hard-won advice for breaking the cycle. Small changes beat grand transformations, persistence builds trust, and—yes—you do have more influence than you think.Five key points:Analysis paralysis: Endless data-gathering as a substitute for decision-making.Over-collaboration: When “everyone must agree” means nothing ever happens.Fear of error: The career-saving art of doing nothing (and why it's killing progress).Diffused ownership: The “Everybody-Somebody-Anybody-Nobody” fable, alive and well in your office.Small wins: How tiny, visible changes can outperform a 150-slide “transformation” deck.Dry, unflinching, and packed with the kind of stories that'll have you nodding (or weeping) in recognition.Got a question - get in touch.

Most people don't fear change itself — they fear the moment before they know if they're going to be okay. And according to Dr. Jimmie Williamson, that gap between uncertainty and clarity is where organizations either hold their people together or quietly lose them. In this episode of Your Health University, Jamie sits down with Dr. Jimmie Williamson, Chief Behavioral Health Officer at Your Health, in the middle of a real organizational merger — making this conversation as timely and personal as it gets. Dr. Williamson draws on decades of clinical experience, behavioral health expertise, and his own career pivots (including leaving a 28-year career to step into healthcare) to walk us through what change actually does to the human brain and body — and what it takes to move through it well. Key topics include: Why even positive change triggers a physiological threat response — and what science says is actually happening in your brain The five stages of change people move through (shock, resistance, exploration, and beyond) and why getting stuck isn't a character flaw Dr. David Rock's SCARF model — the five psychological domains (Status, Certainty, Autonomy, Relatedness, Fairness) that determine whether people feel safe or threatened during transitions What leaders most commonly get wrong when communicating change — and the one mistake that always creates a narrative vacuum Why insecurity in leadership is more dangerous than the change itself The one self-care practice you can start today if you're feeling the weight of uncertainty Change is positive. It is good. And it is inevitable. This episode will help you believe that — and act like it. www.YourHealth.Org
Something in life isn't fitting the way it used to. The path that once made sense now feels heavy, forced, or disconnected from who you actually are. But walking away from it brings up its own fear. Fear of disappointing people. Fear of losing the identity attached to it. Fear of not knowing what comes next.This journaling episode is about looking underneath that hesitation and getting honest about what's really keeping you stuck.Sam walks through four prompts around change, identity, grief, and the patterns that have quietly been there all along.Journal PromptsThink back to a time in your life when you navigated significant change. Maybe it was having kids, changing jobs, moving, ending a relationship, whatever it might be. What did you figure out? What strengths did you use? If you did that then, what does that tell you about what you're capable of now?Picture the path you're “supposed” to be on right now. The promotion. The title. The next milestone everyone expects from you. Maybe even the one you expect from yourself. What does your day look like? How do you feel by the end of it? What lights you up? What drains you? What does your family dynamic look like? Not what it should feel like. What it would actually feel like based on your current trajectory.If you walked away from what you're doing now, what would you be grieving? Maybe it's the identity. The validation. The security. The stability. The path you thought your life would take. Or where you thought you'd be by now. Then ask yourself: what would I be moving toward? What keeps calling me that I continue to ignore?Think about the last time you felt fully in your zone. When work didn't feel like work. When conversations felt energizing. When something came naturally to you and you felt good doing it. Where were you? What were you doing? Who were you with? What kind of work were you helping people with? Then look back across your life. Where else has that feeling shown up before? What's the pattern that's been there all along?This episode is a space to uncover resistance, reconnect with yourself, and start creating a life that actually fits instead of forcing yourself to stay attached to a version of life that no longer does.Work with me:The Leaders Table: https://www.samanthapenkoff.com/leaders-tableBreakthrough Intensive - You already know you should slow down, delegate more, stop overcommitting & be emotionally present.

Most people don't realize that standing still is costing them more than any leap of faith ever could.Steph dives into the hidden weight of inaction and how the small, seemingly insignificant decisions we avoid can quietly shape the entire trajectory of our lives. Drawing on a powerful story about her grandmother, Steph unpacks why fear and comfort so often disguise themselves as safety, and how that illusion keeps us stuck. This episode is a call to recognize that impact isn't reserved for big, dramatic moments. It's built through consistent, courageous choices and the willingness to embrace discomfort as a path to personal growth.In this episode you'll discover:The true cost of inaction and how it affects our livesThe role of courage and decision-making in personal growthThe subtle but powerful impact of small, consistent actionsThe story of Steph's grandmother and lessons on fear and inactionYour takeaways:Standing still is an active choice that can lead to missed opportunities.Small decisions, repeated over time, have exponential impacts.Fear and comfort often disguise themselves as safety, preventing growth.Chapters00:00 The Cost of Inaction06:22 Personal Reflections and Lessons from My Grammy12:02 Creating Your Life: The Power of Choice and Action
While looking around her home at the plants she's lovingly placed in carefully chosen pots, Candace has a realization—she doesn't actually want them to grow. Because growth means change. It means needing a bigger container and more space. In this episode, she reflects on how this mirrors our own lives. So often, we place ourselves in comfortable containers—identities, routines, or environments that once fit—but as we grow, those same spaces can begin to feel restrictive. Our roots want to go deeper. Our branches want to expand. But if we don't give ourselves the space, we can unintentionally hold ourselves back from thriving. This episode is a gentle invitation to notice where you may have outgrown your own “pot”… and to give yourself permission to expand into something bigger.
Fear of Change Why do we resist change… even when we know we need it?And what if the very thing we're afraid of is where God is already working? In Week 2 of Brave: What Faith Does to Fear, we tackle the fear of change and uncover a powerful truth: we don't just avoid change—we often stay loyal to what's hurting us. Through Isaiah 43:19, we see that God isn't asking us to figure out a new path… He's already making one. But too often, we miss it because we're holding onto what's familiar instead of trusting what He's doing now. This message explores the tension between comfort and calling, the role of habits and environments in keeping us stuck, and how real, lasting change happens—not through behavior modification, but through the transforming work of the Holy Spirit, a renewed identity in God's Word, and the power of community. You don't have to see the whole path.You just have to trust the One who's making it. Isaiah 43:19 Discussion topics HEAD – What did Jesus say to you through the Word? What stood out to you most from Isaiah 43:19? Why do you think God tells His people not to get stuck looking at what He did? Do you fear change? Why? Why is change such a central part of following Jesus (salvation and sanctification)? HEART – How did it make you feel? Is there something you know God is asking you to step into, but fear is holding you back? Which of these do you relate to most: wanting control? staying in what's familiar? being “loyal to a mistake”? Which of the three areas (Holy Spirit, Identity in the Word, Community) do you need to lean into more? HANDS – What are you going to do with it? What is one specific area where you sense God doing something new in your life? What is one practical step you can take this week to move forward instead of staying where you are? Is there an environment, habit, or relationship you may need to adjust in order to support real change? Group Action / Prayer Moment Over the past few weeks—Easter, the messages, the moments we've experienced… Who should have been there with you? (pause… let people actually think) Not in a guilt way, but in a God might be highlighting someone way.

Do you have a habit like smoking or late night snacking that you want to kick, but no matter what you try, you just can't seem to quit? The answer isn't weakness, and it isn't a lack of motivation. It lives in the 88% of your brain you're not consciously controlling, and therapeutic hypnosis (hypnotherapy) may be one of the most underestimated tools available to change it.On Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck and guest Rita Black, a leading clinical hypnotherapist and author, pull back the curtain on hypnosis and hypnotherapy for weight loss, smoking cessation, and breaking stubborn subconscious patterns. If you've ever asked yourself why you can't stop doing something you genuinely don't want to do, this conversation was made for you.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ How hypnotherapy works by relaxing the critical filter between your conscious and subconscious mind, making it easier to adopt new habits and beliefs rather than fighting against deeply embedded patterns.✅ Why willpower represents only 12% of your mental power, and how your subconscious patterns from night eating to emotional eating are running the show, whether you realize it or not.✅ How adopting an apprentice mindset and shifting your identity from "dieter" to "learner" can reduce shame, break the start-over-Monday cycle, and create sustainable behavioral change.✅ Three practical self-hypnosis techniques you can use today: the identity shift, the Movie Theater mental practice method, and aversion therapy tools that interrupt dopamine-driven cravings before they take hold.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Rita Black, clinical hypnotherapist and expert in hypnosis for weight loss and smoking cessation05:05 Rita shares her personal story of overcoming addiction through hypnotherapy and becoming a non-smoker10:04 The difference between stage hypnosis and therapeutic hypnosis: entertainment versus real behavioral change14:25 How hypnotherapy relaxes the critical filter so the conscious and subconscious mind can finally align19:36 The ringing phone analogy: why dopamine and expectation drive food cravings and night eating23:06 Three self-hypnosis tools to start using today.

From building Ghana Party in the Park for 20 years without corporate support to losing deals worth millions when artists failed to show up, and why the brutal truth about building a legacy in UK entertainment is that you compete against your own people wasting money you don't have when you could have worked smarter together, the man who ran events that became institutions but never got the corporate backing that Ghanaian promoters in Ghana receive from telcos and banks because the Ghanaian community in the UK is a very small percentage, the 100 percent openness to partnership that brought smiles when Western Union and MoneyGram sponsored events wishing they had done even more because that support validated the work being done, the conversation with his friend David that hit hard about how a lot of us don't like systems thinking we just like to do things and sometimes it looks like ego, the church example where the usher says sit here and you start looking funny because you spotted somewhere you want to sit but for the church and the usher she's thinking this will align with the camera position proving we don't like systems thinking, the fear of change that held him and others back when change is good and change is necessary for growth, the Bissakele show at the Forum in London that sold tickets at incredible speed but could have been twice as big if the venue choice was better, the 696 form system that forced black event promoters to assess every DJ and attendee because of knife culture and fighting at clubs putting everyone in one bracket and making it harder to book certain venues, the Scala venue in King's Cross that said no they don't want to do a black event forcing him to find the next alternative when over 200 people were left outside while inside was jam packed proving they could have filled a space twice that size, the mistakes made that he's learned from because you've got to be able to make mistakes to correct them and life you could always do better, the recounting of what he would have done better including getting more people involved in the work and having better understanding with artists he worked with because some of them were personal friends who don't need to speak to you anymore because things didn't go their way, the money wasted by competing against promotional partners like Aloudia, West Coast, DJ Abramship, and Stuk DJs when there were times they had about three events on the same night and could have done one big event instead, the ego and pride that stopped them from working smarter alongside the reality that competition is healthy but if he thinks about it now they could have done better which they are correcting by working closely together now, the discussion about Ghana Party in the Park becoming like Wireless Festival which he 100 percent agrees with but the business decision of whether to take Ghana out of the title when 80 percent of the niche market was the Ghanaian community, the offer that came in 2020 where he was happy to take away the Ghana from the title and had COVID not come in it would still not be Ghana Party in the Park it would have been a different title, the reality that everything he does is Ghana related and maybe that's wrong of him but that's the foundation he built, the wisdom that Ghana starts a lot of things but doesn't own it and somebody else takes it better and he's part of the system that got it wrong, the experience working with legend Daddy Lumba who was very difficult to work with doing three shows successfully in the UK before the fourth show where Daddy Lumba called just days before to say he's not coming just like that with no fault of the promoter, the heavy loss already made at that time with tickets sold and people ready to attend Guest: Dennis Tawiah (Aqualva UK Founder) Host: Derrick Abaitey
From not owning the stories and contributions that built the UK African music scene to losing millions when COVID forced event cancellations and why the brutal truth about going with the flow without being intentional is that other people end up taking credit for your work while you watch your children learn your legacy from strangers instead of from you, the man who pioneered African music on mainstream UK radio and created events that became institutions but never documented his role in the movement, the cassette tapes he showed his son who had never seen one before using a pen to rewind it teaching lessons about how far they've come and how much has changed, the regret of not owning a lot of the history because when you look at Zemba or the movements happening right now people think it started with someone's return but there was a group of people who started this and they should have documented it but they didn't, the children he feels he let down because they don't really know his story and it takes other people to tell them when he's never been the type to go around talking about himself but life has taught him you've got to speak up, the beautiful family this unplanned path has given him and how his kids are now seeing what he did and his peers are telling him he needs to speak up and own half of what Africans in the UK are enjoying right now because in a few years nobody will know what they went through, the contributions to getting African music played on mainstream radio which broke the camel's back that people don't know about, the mistakes made because he was just going with the flow and the cost of not being intentional because somebody else comes into the story and other people take the credit and other people tell you that you've been lazy, the 90 percent of conversations and rooms he's been in from record label rooms to radio stations to pluggers that never translated to support for his company or his events, the Ghana Party in the Park brand that ran for 20 years without fail even when others fell and the very good offer on the table in January before COVID came in March and destroyed the deal, the generations of people who came through Ghana Party in the Park who are now at Sony Music and big positions in the industry and how he sees ex patrons everywhere in high positions who all came through his events, the disappointment of not getting rich from Ghana Party in the Park because it's a big brand, a very very big brand that deserved more, the business cap he didn't put on early enough because he matured very late and maturity came to him very late but now he's surrounded by good people like his partner DJ Mensa in Ghana bringing brilliant ideas, the Ghanaian businesses at the time who weren't comfortable with the entertainment scene even in Ghana before telcos like MTN and Vodafone had to invest heavily into Ghanaian music, the shout out to Charter House for what they were doing with Ghana Music Awards and how when corporate came in you saw the beauty of what they were doing, the love for what corporate is doing especially in Ghana with Charter House and iGo House doing Tidal Rave and how banks and drinks companies and telco companies are getting involved but in the UK they don't get that because the Ghanaian community is a very small percentage, the 100 percent openness to partnership and the smile that came from sponsorship from Western Union and MoneyGram at the time wishing they had done even more, the friend David who said something that hit him about how a lot of us don't like systems thinking we just like to do things and sometimes it looks like ego, the example of walking into a church and the usher says sit here and you start looking funny because you spotted somewhere you want to sit but for the church and the usher she's thinking this will align with the camera position proving we don't like systems thinking, the fear of change that held him and others back when change is good.
There are certain, critical moments that say directly to us: You must change your life. Collectively, we are in a time when great changes are necessary; yet the idea of truly changing is too fearful for most people. On this episode of Living Myth, Michael Meade tells a surprising story from ancient India in which a fearful tiger suddenly awakens to its true inner nature and becomes transformed. It turns out that learning about one's true self can be like approaching a tiger. The authentic self has beauty and unique markings. It has power and an intensity of presence similar to the fierce brightness of a tiger. Awakening the deeper self also reveals an inner sense of nobility that can shift fear to awareness and replace uncertainty with a living sense of purpose. In mythological terms, the less people awaken to who they are in essence, the greater the amount of fear in the world becomes. If we are to find some way through the cascade of crises that currently threaten the world, we must face our deepest fears, open our hearts and begin to see with the visionary eyes of our tiger self. When the inner eyes of our hearts and souls open, we begin to see the world as we were intended to see it, and in so doing, find ways of transforming our lives that also help to transform this troubled world.

Release fear of change and transformation with this comprehensive energy clearing session. If you feel frozen when opportunities for growth appear, anxious about leaving your comfort zone, or terrified of the unknown, this clearing addresses the root patterns creating that fear.

This energy clearing works at the subconscious level to release fear patterns that have been keeping you frozen. You may experience emotional releases, physical sensations, insights, or simply a sense of relief as fear patterns clear. After this clearing, change begins to feel safer. Transformation feels possible instead of terrifying. You can move forward without constant fear blocking your path.

This clearing works across all timelines to identify and eliminate past life blocks that are limiting your intuitive gifts in this lifetime. It includes grounding techniques to help you feel safe and centered as you reclaim your abilities. You may experience memories, images, or simply a sense of something heavy lifting as we clear old vows, fears, and trauma that no longer serve your highest good.

In this episode of the Anatomy of Change podcast, Seth Studley reconnects with Luke LeFevre, founder of Holy Work and (former Director at Dave Ramsey), to discuss the transformative power of journaling and personal growth. They explore Luke's journey from feeling emotionally numb to discovering purpose through writing, the importance of being still, and the role of fear and resistance in the process of change. Luke shares insights on how to embrace discomfort, take small actions, and cultivate patience in the journey of self-discovery. The conversation emphasizes the significance of building a supportive community and the gift of vulnerability in healing. Keywords journaling, personal growth, emotional health, transformation, coaching, self-discovery, fear, change, Holy Work, mental health Takeaways Journaling helps unlock emotions and find purpose. The journey to self-discovery often begins with discomfort. Patience is crucial in the process of transformation. Fear is a natural part of making significant changes. Small actions can lead to significant transformations. Being still allows for deeper connection with oneself and God. Free writing can help clarify thoughts and feelings. Overcoming resistance is essential for personal growth. The act of writing can provide clarity and reduce anxiety. Building a supportive community can enhance the journey of change.

When the Seasons Change, So Do We Do you ever notice how the air shifts right before a new season begins? The light feels different, the silence between moments gets louder… and suddenly, you realize, you've changed too. It's not just the weather. It's a mirror. Every autumn, every spring, nature's reminding us: nothing blooms forever, and nothing stays barren forever either. We talk so much about growth, but real growth? It's cyclical. It has endings. Inner growth isn't about constant positivity or progress, it's about honoring the death of an old version of you so a truer one can take root. Just like trees shedding leaves to survive winter, we have to let go of what can't come with us into the next chapter. This isn't loss, it's renewal. Because what we resist releasing… rots. But here's the problem, most of us fight the fall (pun intended!) We cling to relationships past their season, careers we've outgrown, habits that once protected us but now suffocate us. Why? Because stillness scares us. We confuse silence for failure, when it's actually the soil recharging. Winter isn't punishment, it's preparation. If you're in a season of confusion right now, maybe things feel like they're falling apart, don't rush it. Nature never rushes, yet everything gets done. Your life has seasons because your soul does too. This fall, don't just watch the leaves change, let something in you die that's ready to go. And when spring comes, it won't just be flowers blooming, it'll be you : ) So today, take a walk. Feel the shift. Ask yourself: What season am I really in? And what's ready to fall away… so something better can grow? Thank you for tuning in. Peace and love always, Amber xoxo
Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
Burnout recovery often hides in fear of change. You cling to safety nets, but regret costs more than risk. Through Scripture and recalibration, discover how trust — not credentials — is the path to aligned expansion.Burnout recovery isn't only about doing less — sometimes it's about learning to trust God enough to release the nets you've been clinging to. High-capacity humans often carry decision fatigue, role confusion, and identity drift, mistaking safety for alignment.In this Sunday episode of The Recalibration with Julie Holly, Julie weaves neuroscience, Scripture, and identity-level transformation into one powerful invitation. Drawing from Matthew 4:18–22, she unpacks how Peter, Andrew, James, and John left their nets behind — not because they had credentials, but because they had faith that where Jesus was leading was worth the risk.It's not just an ancient story. Today, it might look like leaving a stable career for a calling you can't yet explain. It might look like stepping into leadership when you'd rather stay in the comfort of what you've already mastered.Through Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR), you learn to retrain the nervous system so it no longer confuses unfamiliar with unsafe. Instead of seeing God's invitation as danger, you begin to recognize it as alignment. This isn't another mindset tactic or productivity hack — it's the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective.Anchoring Scripture: Matthew 4:18–22 (NLT). Category-of-one anchor: Without recalibration, risk feels like danger. With recalibration, risk becomes trust.Today's Micro Recalibration: “If I trusted God enough to leave the familiar nets behind, what expansion would I say yes to?”If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Send us a textOne of the biggest mistakes leaders make with new initiatives is selling the benefits without naming what it might cost teachers. Grounded in Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory, this episode explores why the fear of loss often outweighs the promise of gain. Whether it's autonomy, time, competence, or belonging, the risks teachers anticipate can feel heavier than the advantages leaders emphasize.Through research and real-life examples, you'll learn how to shift pushback into progress by addressing those hidden losses head-on. The takeaway is simple: don't just highlight the gains, acknowledge and reduce the losses teachers fear. Resistance isn't about “fear of change.” It's about fear of loss. And until you name the loss, the gain won't matter.
In this episode of The Creative Genius Podcast (the finale for Season 4!) Kate sits down with Albert Bramante — talent agent, psychologist, and author — to explore why so many creatives hold themselves back, how to reframe rejection, why fear isn't the enemy, and how to trust yourself enough to rewrite your own script.From Kate: Today I'm bringing you a conversation that feels especially alive and needed right now. I sat down with Albert Bramante — a rare soul who bridges the world of psychology and the performing arts. For over two decades he's walked alongside actors, dancers, and other artists as both a talent agent and a guide through the invisible terrain of mindset, fear, self-doubt, and that sneaky self-sabotage we all bump up against when we dare to put our true selves out in the world.In this conversation, Albert opens up about how rejection isn't really rejection, how fear can be a strange protector, and how staying open to the unknown — in our art, our work, our relationships — can free us to live bigger, truer lives.I hope as you listen you feel a soft invitation to loosen your own grip a little, to see where you might be clinging too tightly to other people's scripts for you — and maybe, just maybe, to let yourself play again.Highlights:Why rejection is rarely personalHow our childhood shapes creative courageWhat fear of success really meansThe power of playing instead of performingReal stories about people pleasing, burnout, and letting go

In this episode of The Career Flipper, I chat with Jenna Leveille, who went from working as a merchant in the travelling Renaissance Festival circuit to becoming the Deputy State Cartographer of Arizona and now she's the VP of State and Local Government Strategy at a mapping company. But this journey? It's anything but straight. Jenna's path weaves through non-traditional college years, a detour into zoology (because saving the world felt like a good place to start), and finally landing in the world of geospatial tech and GIS.We talk about what it's like to not have it all figured out, to follow your curiosity, and to keep showing up, even when the next step is unclear. If you've ever felt like your career map is a bit...hand-drawn in pencil, this one's for you. Jenna proves you can absolutely make your own route—and that community, resilience, and a little self-trust can take you further than you imagined.Connect with JennaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenna-leveille-1061491b/ Thanks for listening to The Career Flipper!If you enjoyed this episode, let's spread the word!

In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations" on the Career Flipper podcast, I, Jenny Dempsey, take you along on my career journey. This year, I've committed to opening up about my own career flip, just as I encourage my guests to do. So here we are, in May 2025, and I can hardly believe it's been four months since I started my current day job. It feels surreal to say that, especially considering I was laid off for two years before this.During this time, I've been balancing my full-time job with furniture restoration on the side, dedicating Sundays to it, and squeezing in podcasting and all the related tasks whenever I can. If that sounds overwhelming, it is! Life can be a juggling act, and I know I'm not alone in feeling this way. Scheduling time with friends often feels like a game of Tetris, as we all navigate our busy lives.I've always been the type of person who thrives on variety. I'm the one multitasking—doing laundry while putting away dishes, preparing to record a podcast, creating social media content for my furniture flipping page, and making sure my dog, Dwight, gets outside for a potty break. My brain has always thrived on this mix of activities, and I've been like this for as long as I can remember.Looking back, I've come to realize something significant. For a long time, I believed that work—capital W work—was my identity. I thought it was the only thing I was good at. I didn't believe in taking vacations; if I did, I'd bring my laptop along and continue working. I even had a panic attack in front of a customer service team I was managing because I was so consumed by my job. I poured everything into my work, only to learn the hard way that companies would replace me in an instant. When I was laid off and struggled to find a new job for two years, I was left questioning my identity. Who was I if I wasn't working?I dive into this and more in the episode!

In today's episode, we're talking with Alexia, a holistic canine nutritionist who made an unexpected career flip, thanks to her dog. Alexia started her journey deep in the world of academia and art in the sustainability sector, researching, writing, and painting.

She helps dogs thrive, feel better, eat better, and live longer—with a perfect blend of heart, soul, and science. It's the ultimate plot twist! We dive into how Alexia transitioned from thinking she was locked into a creative and academic career to discovering her true calling in canine wellness. She talks about embracing discomfort, leaning into the chaos, and the identity shift that comes with going from “I thought I'd be doing X forever” to “Wait, maybe I'm meant to help dogs heal instead?”We also get into how Alexia created Mystic Dog Mama, her podcast and community focused on holistic pet care and personal growth, all while leaning into the weirdness of following unexpected paths.

Welcome to the YOU CAN CALL ME “BOSSY” PODCAST! In this quick hit episode, I dive into the often complicated relationship we have with change. I will be sharing personal insights from an immersive training in powerful modalities like NLP, breathwork, hypnosis, and EFT tapping. Through a revealing breathwork session, I uncovered two limiting beliefs about change that were holding me back, even as someone who thought I embraced transformation. This episode is all about the importance of self-awareness, compassion (for ourselves and others), and taking radical responsibility for the beliefs and stories that shape our lives. If you're ready to explore what might be keeping you stuck and how to gently break through those barriers, this episode offers practical wisdom and a heartfelt nudge to own your journey and thrive—even if change feels scary. So, consider this your permission slip to stand in your power and, as always, own your bossy!

Send us a textBig change can feel exhilarating—and terrifying. In this personal episode, Lauren and Frank step away from their usual interview format to share the emotional rollercoaster of preparing for a major move. As they unpack their own resistance to change, they explore a powerful truth: even the most welcome transformations can stir up deep fears and old patterns.Through honest storytelling and intuitive reflection, they dive into why we sometimes cling to familiar discomfort, whether in jobs, relationships, or physical spaces. Lauren opens up about her tendency to “bottleneck for control,” while Frank reflects on staying too long in a misaligned job. Together, they examine how childhood experiences and parental fears shape our reactions to uncertainty—especially when guiding young children through big transitions.Clairvoyaging is now a fiscally sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, a 501(c)(3) charity, so any donations are now tax deductible.

In this episode, we dive deep into the common mindset sabotages that can hold you back in 2025, such as unrealistic expectations, limiting beliefs, negative self-talk, outdated goals, unhealthy coping mechanisms, a craving for immediate gratification, fear of change, and comparison. These patterns of thinking can subtly derail your progress, drain your motivation, and keep you stuck in a cycle of frustration. But there's good news: you don't have to let these sabotages control your life. Instead, we discuss how to invite God into your thoughts, actions, and decisions, transforming your mindset by grounding yourself in scripture and affirming truth based on God's Word. By renewing your mind with God's wisdom, you can break free from these mental barriers and embrace a mindset that empowers you to live with purpose and peace. In this episode, you'll learn: • The eight mindset traps to watch out for in 2025 that could be holding you back. • Why unrealistic expectations and limiting beliefs can sabotage your goals. • How to stop the cycle of negative self-talk and replace it with God's affirming truth. • Why unhealthy coping mechanisms fail and how to find true healing in Christ. • The power of inviting God into your thoughts and actions to shift your mindset. • Practical tips for renewing your mind with scripture and daily affirming truths. Scripture References: • Romans 12:2 – “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” • Philippians 4:8 – “Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” Takeaway: This episode will help you recognize and overcome destructive mindsets by centering your thoughts on God's truth and His plans for your life. If you're ready to stop sabotaging your growth and step into a more fulfilling, God-centered mindset in 2025, this is the episode for you.

Happy Wednesday Heal Squad! Welcome back for part 2 of my conversation with my friend Julianne Hough. In this episode, we continue to explore the themes of healing, transformation, and self-discovery that shaped her new book, Everything We Never Knew. Julianne opens up about the power of trusting our intuition, despite the fear of being misunderstood, and how embracing the mentality of “Who says?” has empowered her to break free from societal expectations. We also discuss her return to Dancing with the Stars, where she feels a deep sense of belonging, and how the show is more than just dance—it's a space for transformation. Julianne reflects on her life's purpose, her dreams for the future, and what she truly wants to feel and experience moving forward to wrap out our conversation on finding balance, embracing change, and living authentically. Healers and Heal-Liners We are so disconnected from our intuition because we are scared people won't believe us. It's both a beautiful and scary thing how humans can adapt so well. What will come to you is what is best for your highest self, and not what you think you should have.
