“Do as I do, be as I am. “ Jesus Christ “When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.”  Paulo Coelho (author of The Alchemist) Sometimes we forget who we are.  Sometimes we think, is this all there is?  And if that is true, what is the point of all of this?  We all can feel stuck.  Trapped even. Unable to get out of the web of the choices we made to get to this point. And then when you are so wrapped in that silky meshy mess, panicking that the gross scary spider is going to come and get you that you lose sight of everything but the panic! The fear! The NEED to get OUT before the monster gets you! Then before you know it, this is what your life is - survival and fear. Trapped in a web and trying to get out.   No longer are you actually going anywhere.  You are just GETTING OUT. But “getting out” is not a destination.  And OUT! Is driven by fear which has us thrashing around so much that we just wrap the web even thigh around ourselves so it is now even harder to achieve. It is like one of those Chinese finger traps,you played with as a kid - the harder you pull against it, the tighter it binds you.  But if we stop thrashing and fighting and fearing The Monster (the unknown).  If we breathe and take a moment and ask ourselves.  Where am I? Who am I? Where am I going? What do I actually want? Where do I want to go? What do I WANT to be doing right now? (in the positive, the answer can't be ESCAPING or ESCAPISM behavior). If all options are on the table, what would I actually choose to be doing to spend my time if I wasn't so scared and spending all my energy beating back the tides of change, fear, and all the things I don't want?  If you could articulate in the positive a destination. I want to be writing a book.  I want to go to the gym twice a week.  I want a job that fulfills me. I want to have a conversation with my partner. I want an abundant family. I want to laugh. Do you see where I am going with this?  What can you articulate in the positive?  What do you aspire for yourself?  And yeah maybe your mind will say it's a pipe dream.  But you know what?  It is YOUR pipe dream.  And if it brings you joy and light - why is it silly to aspire for that, and to do that, instead of just surviving? instead of just “getting away from THIS.”   Because running away is not a destination.  Getting away is not a goal. It is running from the monster.  Running away from the monster is not running to something at all - it is getting you lost deeper in the woods and going right into the belly of the beast.   If you feel trapped and depressed or scared of what is to come.  What if you were not spending all of your time on surviving, on beating back the fear, or trying to get away?  If you hate your job and every night you come home and drink a bottle of wine - what is that doing?  That is just numbing the pain from the job you hate.  Is it getting you a new job that is fulfilling?  Is it raising your vibration to a place where you can see a new alternative?  Is it giving you anything but escape?  Yeah you are surviving the pain.  But is that a life?  Surviving and enslaved to something you hate?   Our negative ego is a real motherfucker.  It makes us believe that running away is a solution.  It says STAY SAFE!  Don't leave this box. HIDE! Outside this box is failure - is the inability to pay your bills. Outside, is the eternal question, are you dying alone?  Because it says you are not good enough.  You don't deserve nice things.  You are not capable. No one likes you.  That is for other people.  Other people write books, other people take fabulous vacations, other people get graduate degrees and careers they actually enjoy.  It is an insidious record that keeps playing over and over again - that keeps you thrashing in the spider web you spun yourself. Keeps you making choices that keep you trapped in a cycle of fear and miserable-ness and not progressing toward something that will actually bring you satisfaction and joy.   And here is the secret.  It is not in some new age book from the early 2000s called, The Secret or even just positive thinking, or in that next social media influencers webinar about the 10 steps to financial freedom and happiness.  It is none of those things.  It is in the most simple (but hard to practice) axiom of Know Thyself.  Know thyself as God. Know thy own needs and wants. Your thoughts create your reality. Hermetic Principle #1 - All is Mind.  99% of your success in creating a change in your life comes from how you feel about the situation because every feeling creates a thought, and every thought is acted upon. So if we feel good about where we are going, and are actually consciously choosing where we are going, and know in your heart of hearts that where you are going is what you actually want to do - then you will follow that gratitude filled feeling, into a gratitude and hope filled thought, then apply consistency and discipline to carry out actions daily (little bits every day) that get you somewhere new that you actually WANT to be.  And after some effort you will find yourself free of your bondage and looking forward to even more amazing things as you take action in the present moment.  But until YOU CHOOSE an actual DESTINATION that you want and desire then you will never ever be able to get there. Because no one ever gets anywhere when you are running away from your life.  This is your life.  You only get one.  What do you want to be spending your precious minutes on?  How much time and energy have you spent  beating back the fear?  What is the worst that could happen if you paused and surrendered to whatever you are avoiding and chose what you actually want? Then and only then do you realize just how futile and useless the fight that fear is.  How irrelevant - and that all your writhing and drama and gesticulation was just an ugly dance that you can stop. And finally,with clarity and simplicity you can step out from by deciding with discernment and your will to set your mind, your thoughts, words and acts toward the true desire you have in your heart of hearts, for the best and highest good.  Then you will be free of the bonds of the web you wove. The box you stapled yourself into and you can live as the god/goddess you truly are and start creating your reality.  And THIS is the magick that Jesus spoke of and embodied as a Hermetic teacher. This is why he was able to create miracles - and was trying to teach us to do the same. “Do as I do. Be as I am.”  “Everything I can do, you can do and more.”  Jesus Christ was a Hermetic Teacher.  When he was alive there was no such thing as Christianity.  There was Judaism and Jesus was ethnically Hebrew and he is referred to as a Rabbi but he wasn't Jewish either. In the annals of time and translation rabbi simply meant teacher.  And Jesus was just that - a teacher of Hermetics. Hermetics and any Hermetic principle is from the mind of God. It is the understanding of God's mind without human pollution.  If it is Hermetic it will benefit people and always be good.  Because God does no harm. Hermetics creates clarity which simplifies life - thus increasing our potential to act as God in this life.  Whereas the human mind creates complications and traps us in fictions and stories. And ultimately this is what Jesus was teaching - and like good humans we have complicated his words and made a religion out of him which separates what he could do from what we can do.  Which is the exact opposite of his teaching.  “Do as I do. Be as I am.” In other words “Act like the God/Goddess you are.  Master your mind by doing the will of God.”  Jesus was and is one of the greatest teachers for humanity in all time - and as a master of light he mastered his negative ego completely in this physical life and as a result could create miracles. He used every single one of his gifts as a human being for its intended purpose in its intended way.  And although he was special (because he had a unique mission to bring the ray of love and compassion to this planet for all of us to experience) his message to all of us was that HE WAS NOT SPECIAL. In that everything he could do, we can do.  Our job is to LISTEN to him, to take him as an example of possibility and to start living that possibility.  And through his teachings become the teachings - just as he was.   Now he did some amazing party tricks (though turning water into wine back in the day just made the water safe to drink) he also defied the laws of physics, cleared negativity, and cured the sick.  However, the potential to do all of this is within us as well. And humans have created miracles again and again.  The examples we have from the gospels (albeit told through the lens of religion, politics, two hundred or more years, translation from aramaic to greek to latin to english) are examples of a clear will (desire from a place of purity) applied with the rules of Hermetics and the power inherent in this existence as a fully actualized human being connected to spirit acknowledging our power as God - you can have a major impact on this physical world. You can defy the laws of physics.  You can create miracles.  You can just simply live a joyful life.  But it all starts by setting your will in motion and remembering that you are god.  You are a powerful being that can affect your reality through your feelings, thoughts, choices and actions.   With Jesus we weren't supposed to start a religion.  We were supposed to discern.  To learn. To follow in his footsteps versus follow him.  If we say “Jesus take the wheel!” you abdicate responsibility for your life and that is in the exact opposite of what he was getting at for us.  Did we ever hear of Jesus saying “Father DO everything FOR me?”  Yet we do this all the time with Jesus, with our jobs, by blaming other people, by pouring our sorrows into a bottle or any other substance.  We abdicate our responsibility and we run away to our hiding place prison and we stay safe in our survival mechanisms.   Bringing me back to my point.  All of us forget how powerful we are from time to time. Or maybe we have no fucking clue we have any power at all.  We forget or are completely ignorant that in most cases we actually hold the keys to let ourselves out from our chosen prison.  We are all at some point like the figures in the The Devil card of the Rider Waite Tarot deck -held in chains to a big hairy winged beast of a problem but the chains are actually loose enough to simply lift off of our necks, if we desire to remove them.  We chain ourselves to the false God (the thing outside of ourselves that is not us).  We chain ourselves to the Devil, to a demon, to a false idol, we make something or something else God, and we deny our own power. We say we have no choice.  We had to.  I need this escape to cope because I can't leave him or her.  I can't leave my job.  I'll die if I remove the chains of slavery.  But you won't - the truth is you've abdicated your power and voluntarily chained yourself to the external thing and forgotten your power as God.  As the author of your story.  As the determinant of your own destiny.  Then you've focused on staying safe, or getting away, or NOT being in the chains you feel trapped in.   I've been personally chewing on all of this because recently I felt a little bit trapped by my own circumstances.  Even though I KNEW LOGICALLY that it was all my choice and all really for the good.  But in preparing for the Florida Bar Exam for over 7 months it started to take a toll on me and I began to forget why I was doing it.  And as my ability to focus on my business was distracted by study, my partner's health, my own arthritis pain, my sense of lack when some things didn't go as planned and I was disappointed by some individuals. I spent every last bit of my effort preparing for the test then used what little I had left to move twice and learn how to be in a new cohabitation situation. And with my distractions and the challenges - I stopped flowing the normal abundant client load I usually do for a myriad of reasons.  And of course I started getting concerned that I didn't have enough time or money and my thoughts and feelings turned to lack and fear and this just enhanced the worry and lack and thus had me starting to feel trapped.  Trapped because passing the bar is a big slow thing and Seattle is far away from my home in Florida, and trapped because I have to be vulnerable in my relationship and I can't run away anymore.  And trapped because I have to communicate about my finances and don't have the same overflow I'm used to.  All of these things were not helpful. Because I said before 99% of your success is how you FEEL about something versus the actual tactical logical work you put into it.  So here I was working in a way that SHOULD have resulted in my usual flow but it wasn't - but the thing that was off was my fear.  It was my lack mentality.  Plans are definitely still helpful but your own thoughts will destroy the best plan.  So as long as I feel scared and trapped and in lack, that is the energy I am going to attract.  And no one wants a worried estate planning attorney or an abundance & flow coach who is in lack.   But luckily I have a practice and a path to follow and a community of lightworkers to recharge in.  I have teachings and things to study that can bring me around and back to my core purpose, strengthen my will, and turn me back to gratitude.  So this trap was a brief mindset blip and now that I'm out of the gauntlet I can actually start holding gratitude for the bar exam and the time to work on client flow, teamwork with my new team members and communication with my love and life partner.  I remember why I am doing this work.  My law license allows me to help so many families create plans that will protect them in their time of need.  And my purpose and mission in light work helps me remember I am not trapped.  I am choosing this.  I will allow the  will of God to flow through me.  And use Jesus as a light and as a master teacher guiding my heart in every moment. Because that is where he has been since I was a small child, guiding me to live as he lived.  Do as he did. To be in my life an embodiment of his teachings in my unique way in this physical life.  There is nothing to run away from. I am not stuck in any trap. I choose everything and I can remove any obstacle. And I have built a beautiful life based on my choices and I will continue to do so.  A joyful life doesn't result from things being easy or handed to you - in fact sometimes the hardest things in life bring the most value.   I laugh as I wonder which was harder?  The Florida Bar exam or  being vulnerable and in true partnership with another human being. .  To be honest, I know it is the latter.  Taking a test and getting a piece of paper is easy. I've done it time and time again. Helping people as a lawyer is easy.  I've done it time and time again.  But being in a relationship with someone I love and who loves me, growing myself and actualizing myself as  an authentic human being is incredibly challenging! Don't get me wrong - I have prayed and manifested this type of partnership and love, but that doesn't make it not terrifying. To be even more honest, sometimes coexisting and being in real love with my person, scares the living shit out of me.  Because my negative ego is constantly being proved wrong.  I am lovable separate from the things I provide to people in this world. What a concept? I feel like - even now I have to say it twice to truly believe it. I AM LOVEABLE DESPITE WHAT SERVICE I CAN PROVIDE FOR OTHERS! … and you are too.  I am God. YOU ARE GOD. WE ARE GOD.  Fully worthy of giving and receiving tremendous amounts of love + prosperity. So let's start creating some miracles - shall we?  The homework for this episode is simple - well that is, if you allow it to be.  Love yourself like your life depends on it - because it does. Know Thyself. Know God. Do as God would do. And CHOOSE to love yourself more than your struggle. Don't overthink it - just start - a small change in the right direction can make a huge impact. And if you get lost along the way and need further inspiration - I can help with that! Drop me a line at angel@LatterellLaw.com. I will leave you in the words of author Roald Dahl  “And above all watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always in the most unlikely places.  Those who don't believe in magick will never find it.”

Should they be more willing to work out differences with the Five Secrets of Communication? Marc asks: In your book, When Panic Attacks, you mentioned that sometimes people feel “trapped.” What should you do when you're struggling with this feeling?   1. Bosley asks: My father can be very critical of my plans for the future. What's the best way to respond to him? "To explain somewhat concisely, I just want to move to the nearest major city (Seattle) since I feel really really happy there. I also love volunteering for a specific organization and have some community there that I care about, and I feel very isolated having been away from for months. I'm willing to carry the load of all the work I would need to do to make it happen, and do a business training my dad wants me to complete. He has other thoughts. He looks down on volunteering and his thoughts on friends are simply that I can make new ones anyway. He is very aggressive and intimidating in his arguments, full of insults and many factually incorrect statements that are difficult to disarm on the fly. He shoots down the idea upon mention, so it's difficult to collaborate to find mutually beneficial solutions. He is a successful businessman, despite recent financial issues, and has a sort of strict plan for me that he has wanted me to follow, although I really don't feel this conflicts with his goals to have me run things in the future. I'm just worried since he has a long past of being emotionally abusive and of going back on his word. Plus, I just want some autonomy. In the end, it's his way or the highway. He says “You keep scheming and going down a twisted path instead of doing what I tell you.” David's reply I suggested he might complete the first four steps of the Relationship Journal so we could see how he's communicating with his dad. Here is Bosley's partially partially completed Relationship Journal (showing steps 1 to 4, but not 5.)   Step 1 – S/he said: Write down exactly what the other person said. Be brief: You keep scheming and going down a twisted path instead of doing what I tell you! Step 2 – I said: Write down exactly what you said next. Be brief: What? Circle or bold the emotions S/HE might have been feeling Circle or bold the emotions YOU were feeling Sad, blue, depressed, down, unhappy Sad, blue, depressed, down, unhappy Anxious, worried, panicky, nervous, frightened Anxious, worried, panicky, nervous, frightened Guilty, remorseful, bad, ashamed Guilty, remorseful, bad, ashamed Inferior, worthless, inadequate, defective, incompetent Inferior, worthless, inadequate, defective, incompetent Lonely, unloved, unwanted, rejected, alone, abandoned Lonely, unloved, unwanted, rejected, alone, abandoned Embarrassed, foolish, humiliated, self-conscious Embarrassed, foolish, humiliated, self-conscious Hopeless, discouraged, pessimistic, despairing Hopeless, discouraged, pessimistic, despairing Frustrated, stuck, thwarted, defeated Frustrated, stuck, thwarted, defeated Angry, mad, resentful, annoyed, irritated, upset, furious Angry, mad, resentful, annoyed, irritated, upset, furious Other (specify) Other (specify)   Step 3 – Good Vs. Bad Communication: Was your response an example of good or bad communication? Use the EAR Checklist to analyze what you wrote down in Step 2 Step 4 – Consequences: Did your response in Step 2 make the problem better or worse? Why? It probably made things worse. I came off dismissive, which probably confirmed for him that I automatically ignored any advice or direction that he gave me. I wasn't assertive in fear of escalating anger or just being shut down anyway, but that also maintains the status quo. I didn't, and typically don't, show a caring respectful attitude. This, I think, allows his anger to continue snowballing into more intensity. 2. Willie asks why women he's dating “ghost” him instead of working out the problems in the relationship using the techniques in your book, Feeling Good Together. Good morning, Dr. Burns! I hope you are doing well! I want to start off by saying that I love your books and they've played a massive role in changing my personality for the better. However, there is a question I struggle with. In feeling good together, you say that one can keep status quo, solve their problem, or walk away from a relationship. I lean very strongly on the side of always wanting to solve problems. However, at my age, most of girls I date err on the side of just walking away and this opens me up for unnecessary headache and pain. I don't know where to draw the line? My heart says that any two reasonable adults can always make a relationship work given that at least one wants to make things better and, unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case in my experiences. Your insight would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking the time! Best Regards, Willie David's reply Thank you, Willie, I'd love to use this as an Ask David question for one of the podcasts, if that's okay, using your first name or a fake name if you prefer. Here's the super short answer. I wrote a book on that exact topic called Intimate Connections. Essentially you probably need to learn a little more about how to “play the game” when dating. You'll see what this means when you read the book. Warmly, david Willie's Response: Good morning, Dr. Burns! Frankly, I was not expecting a response at all, much less as quick as it was. For this, I truly want to thank you for taking the time to do so. Secondly, it will be my honor if you do bring it up to your podcast. Please don't use my first name - I'd prefer staying anonymous. Please do let me know which podcast this will be so I can give it a listen as well. Lastly, thank you so much for referring me to your book. That will be my next read so I am super excited. If you have any other books which you believe are worth reading which will be beneficial in the dating world, corporate world, etc., please point me to those. I absolutely love your books and their effects on me have been immeasurable. Thank you! Willie I wrote back and suggested we could use the fake name Willie, as he wanted to remain anonymous, and he responded: Now that you say, Willie is definitely sexier! Question: when are you planning on doing the next episode with this question in it? I wouldn't want to miss it.   Here was my response to “Willie.” We'll just read your question, and then provide opinions. My career in private practice has a majority of single individuals who were trying unsuccessfully to connect in the dating world. That's why I wrote that book, which is intensely personal as I was the biggest loser of all for a long time because I was a minister's son and never learned how to “play the game” or be a “bad boy.” But I learned from a friend who was a “hustler” when I was in medical school. I learned a tremendous amount, including that there is a game-playing phase in dating, and a time to be more serious, open and vulnerable. The biggest mistake men make is trying to get too serious when they should be playing the game. What's the game? Well, you'd know if you ever had or loved a cat. If you chase them enthusiastically, you force them to run away. You have to learn how to make them chase you. Many men are stubborn about this, and lamely insist, “But I shouldn't have to play the game!” My answer would be, “You don't! Especially if you don't want to get laid and have lots of ladies chasing you!” Warmly, david   Willie's response This is extremely valuable to me. I never knew that you come from a religious background and I do too so I do want to ask you some more questions / share my experience. One pattern I am noticing is that either Muslim ladies have a lot of religious trauma or they have very strict conservative values - usually a combination of both. In the modern world, I try using dating apps and might get matched with someone 2-3 states away so usually we would hop on a FaceTime and the topic of religion almost always comes up. And, due to differing opinions, they just walk away which deeply upsets me because they make the false assumption that humans are snapshots in time i.e., opinions / perspectives don't change. In fact, a personal experience I would like to share with you. I was in a relationship for 1.5 yrs (long distance) and it just ended 1-2 months ago. Our intention was always to get married. However, a few weeks before breaking up with me, she basically said "oh you don't pray and I cannot even imagine my future husband not praying etc etc" and she ended things with me on that. I even tried using the 5 methods of effective communication to acknowledge and validate her opinions while simultaneously sharing mine but she was dead set and did not even want to think about working on problems. How could I "play the game" in such instances or over long distances?   David's response Hi Willie, The principles of dating are the same in all cultures for the most part, and one rule is “Never chase a distancer.” So, when she switches to religion, you could use the listen skills subset of the Five Secrets, and buy in to what she's saying, WITHOUT arguing or presenting your own thinking. You can admire her, urge her to tell you more about her religious feelings and spiritual life, using liberal Thought and Feeling Empathy, and lots of Disarming Techniques, and Stroking, with Gentle Inquiry. You would NOT chase, or try to persuade, or argue, or defend yourself. Be totally admiring and other-centered at those times. If she says she wants to break up, you might say that you've been sensing some distance, and are relieved that she is doing that, because you, too, would like to date other women, but that the two of you can still be friends if she promises not to get romantically involved with you, and that you will be on the lookout for some really great guys she might want to date. This is a paradoxical approach, and it is an art form. And I can also tell you to date other women immediately, and the moment you find one you like better than her, she will find out, even if no one tells her, and she will likely want you back again. That's because of the Burns rule, which states: “People NEVER want what they CAN have; they ONLY want they CAN'T have!” Now, if you tell me this approach is phony, I would tell you that you're 200% right! And it's not only incredibly phony, it's amazingly effective! And a kinder word that “phony” might be to say that when someone starts pulling away, you have to switch into this style and strategic approach, and stop trying to be loving and sincere or logical, etc. Do NOT chase, simply open your hands and let go. It's the exact same strategy you might use to get close to a cat! Best, david Hi Willie, If you'd like, you can send me an example of what one of the Muslim ladies said to you, and exactly what you said next. Please select an interaction that didn't go well. Then I can analyze your response and suggest some alternative ways to respond in a dating situation. In fact, if you like, you can record it on the Relationship Journal that I've attached. Please fill in steps 1 through 4. Please do this right away as we record tomorrow. Best, david   Hi Dr. Burns, I cannot even tell you how much these emails are already changing my outlook. I truly want to thank you for taking the time and responding to these. One thing that caught my eye is the paradoxical approach. I never thought about it. In my mind, I feel you should work on relationships / never let go but if letting go is working on it, then that is something I really need to do. I am attaching two copies of the Relationship journal. One dealing with the topic of drugs and one with prayer. One thing I will tell you is that I usually bring these topics up myself because, in my mind, I don't want to deceive anyone and get these big topics out of the way as early on as I can and I think I am making a mistake somewhere here. Thank you, again, for taking the time and responding to these emails! Looking forward to what you think about the topics of conflict I have been having! Best Willie

If you're feeling trapped, then you're feeling like you're not able to CHOOSE in your motherhood - whether that's what your day looks like or how you show up as a mom. Any time you MOVE, you're accessing that choice, and any time to choose to move differently, you're also opening yourself up to new ways of thinking, as well as new possibilities. Fear of change is often what keeps us feeling trapped but, as we explore in this episode, fear has all kinds of different flavors, and you get to widen your capacity towards it any time you want to.

This Sunday Pastor Jeff continues our sermon series “From the Cradle to the Grave: Lessons from the Life of Mary.” The passage we'll study contains a particularly poignant lesson for us as we approach the New Year and reflect on how to make the most of whatever adversity we currently face. Start the New Year right by making time for worship and reflection this Sunday morning at our usual worship times – 9:15 and 11:00 am.

In this moment, professor of marketing and best-selling author, Adam Alter discusses how to become unstuck in life, work and relationships. The first thing is to understand what it actually means to become stuck, this often means judging whether to keep going with a particular path or to quit. In these instances Adam thinks it is best to think about the opportunity cost of leaving a goal behind, especially as research shows that it is nearly always a good idea to keep going beyond the point where it starts becoming hard as this is where growth happens. However, too often we quit as we view any sort of difficultly as a problem. One of the key ways that Adam thinks we can become unstuck is by simplifying a problem as much as possible, we can do this through what he calls a friction audit. This means knowing what is and isn't important, what's getting in the way, and how you can subtract it.

Hello my beautiful friends,  Today I'm excited to share a bit of a story time; I am talking about my most prominent and disruptive money theme. My money themes have always been centered around a feeling of being trapped and restricted. I never felt that money was unavailable, in fact I always knew that it was there. But if I was asking for something that wasn't deemed traditional and acceptable, it was withheld and money would stand on the other side of the glass, visible and taunting me.  I go through the story of how I tried to take action in order to stop the flow of restriction; cutting chords left and right frantically, thinking that this would result in a feeling of freedom - but we know the Law of Attraction better than that! (now lol) Even though I thought all that I was doing was setting me free, I was actually just creating/attracting new ways to restrict myself.  Thankfully I am older and wiser now and I can see the error in my ways and I have spent the last year progressively embodying a new feeling; a feeling of freedom. Rather than trying to run from restriction or to free myself from it, I started seeking evidence that I already had it and finding ways to feel it now, even while circumstantially nothing had changed and the results have been new, fresh, and exciting to me.  Tune in to hear more! If you have any questions or want deeper clarity on what I've discussed in this or any previous or future episode, feel free to email me or DM me on Instagram, all links are below. If you desire deeper support on these topics, fill out the work with me questionnaire and I will get back to you in the next 2 business days to setup a free introduction call; I do not list prices because I currently price my services depending on a client's personal feelings of abundance.

Have you felt burdened by social media? Have you considered leaving or taking a break from social media, but worry about what you'd miss out on? Are there reasons you believe you ‘have to' or ‘need to' be on social media? In this episode Sasha chats with Sandy Cooper, a Bible study teacher, podcast host of The Balanced MomCast, writer, and professionally certified home chef that helps frazzled women find peace. Sandy shares about her life from motherhood, to the books she has written, and the role social media has played in her life. She talks about the way many of us use social media, for hours each day, which by the way, is one of the red flag signs of a social media addiction. Sandy shares how fear kept her on social media in a number of different ways and how it began 'sucking the life out of her' before she committed to go against the grain and take a one year social media hiatus. God showed her how social media was a weight that she was carrying that was preventing her from effectively running the race that God had called her to. This is certainly an episode that you don't want to miss. Be sure to come back to listen to part 2 of this episode where Sandy shares the top 3 reasons you might need a break from social media.

Feeling trapped for us as black women is very common.  Feeling trapped can lead to an increase of stress hormones, and if it continues for a long, it can also lead to completely disengaging with our lives where we will go from fighting it or fleeing it to saying f*@k it. That is the grin and bear it stage or the go through the motion stage.  Is this you– Are you attending the parties showing up at work, serving on all the community committees, and still empty as f*@k inside?  If so, this episode is for you! Listen in as I share the three common thought patterns that keep us trapped and how to unlock them so you feel a sense of freedom and growth instead.

Three experiences hit me hard this week and reminded me of three important points that help me with burnout.  This is a reminder to me that I always have a choice, I do not need to react, and I can put better boundaries in place.

What are some ways that you feel trapped in circumstances that aren't to your liking? What appearances make it seem that other people have an easier life or are making a bigger impact on the world for good? In today's podcast, you will hear the story of Daniel and the transition he had to go through and how he stayed strong and was a witness for God. Contributor: This week Amy shares about a time when her family moved away from the places and people she was familiar with. She will explain how God helped her through this transition.

She sent us a voice memo saying, “I don't see my husband or my kids anymore… money is not the issue, I just don't have the time…I feel trapped by my business.” This Mom is trying to wear the superhero cape in life and at work and feels she is doing neither very well brewing a mental cocktail of disillusionment about the value and gift of business, while also fueling 100-proof guilt straight from the still of societal expectations. Life and business necessarily intersect and can be of mutual value to each other.   Humans were created as a gift to one another, so to work was created as a means of mimicking small little moments of creation each and every day.  This treatise that I am penning now is a small act of creating something new… a small contribution of work.   This morning I was able to sit with my daughter for a short breakfast a mere five days before she is to marry her fiance.  I cannot hide my family emotion from my work creation, or vice versa.  The space for breakfast was set and crafted long before this morning. Without a predetermined understanding of what our business was intended in the first place, I could have easily slotted some urgent-felt task into that slot that was unmoveable.  Years ago I made the determination that I would not do my core work of coaching on Mondays or Fridays.  Why? I needed space… margin.   Foregoing Monday and Friday coaching options was also a confession that we would also be limiting our possible income due to the restriction of available revenue-generating hours in any given week.   This does not mean I do no work on Monday and Fridays.  On the contrary, some of my deepest creation work is done on Monday and Friday as I create a series of one-on-one appointments with myself to create and implement that work that will ultimately benefit hundreds and thousands beyond me for years to come…including this humble article I write now.   Those are hours that I have cashed in for the margin of availability.  Availability for my daughter to have a final breakfast before she assumes a last name and role that I no longer have a primary say in.  Availability to hop on a call with a frustrated client, to chat with a wisdom-seeking team member,  to stare out the window and contemplate next steps. The burden of being trapped is usually at the fault of providing ourselves no boundaries, and therefore no margin. Watching a basketball game on television, you will quickly see that the boundary of the court offers the margin for spectators, journalists, team trainers, coaches, and a variety of other support that allows freedom for the players to do what they are best at. Could the leagues cram more games into a season and theoretically earn more money?  Yes, to what damage? Exhaustion.  Fatigue.  Bitterness.  Frustration.  Isolation. All are planted in the soil of a boundaryless life; a day to day without proper forethought, scheduling, and perspective. Five days out from walking my daughter into a new life, sending her off into a new narrative with a new teammate it is hard to run from the cliches of time chasing you down reminding you that your parents and grandparents were right when they pinched your cheek, pitifully cocked their head and softly spilled the truth that time really does move fast.   Success is not a metric, but instead health, presence, eyes to see and ears to hear.   In the popular book In Praise of Slowness Carl Honore writes, “studies show that people who feel in control of their time are more relaxed, creative and productive.” Apps have turned much of life into a competitive league of perpetual window shopping through the grams, reels, and snaps of our incessant posting.  In her well-written book Saving Time Jenny Odell laments that “you can shop for life itself in a virtual mall where posts about self-care and retreat come across as ads for self-care and retreat.  Tap to add this to your life.” No corner of our attention is spared from the incandescent glow of the best of everyone else in contrast to the dark world of my own limitations.   We work harder like desperate gamblers trading in another bank of minutes from our limited supply out to the open market in hopes we will strike it big in the form of achievement knowing that it too will soon be gone. Ironically, I was at a funeral yesterday, six days prior to my daughter's wedding.  A powerful paradox.  A juxtaposed emotion from what soon will come.  In two hours of funeraling, there was not one mention of the 89-year-olds net worth nor one accolade of the overtime that he put in. The one theme throughout the two-hour reflection was…presence.  “He was there.” “He was silly.” “He was faithful.” It used to be thought that she who dies with the most toys wins.   Instead, she who boundaries her time to be available both on the court and in the margins… wins.  She who makes time for breakfast with her daughter and the planned team meeting. She who makes time for exercise and budget reports. She who makes time for kids activities and sales appointments. The bad news is you are only allowed 168 hours in a week.   The good news is you have access to a full bank of 168 hours in a week.   For the most part, you decide how those hours are used and who those hours are used for.  It will cost you either way, and you alone will determine the value of that cost either for the short term, or the long.   You can window shop the infinite screens of the other, or you can content yourself with the value of who you have been built and designed to be; which is finite and unique.   Balance is a myth, rhythm is a reality.  Boundaries allow for rhythm, both on the court and in the margin.

Amy went from corporate girl to million dollar success story that still struggled with doubts and belief that she was enough. In this episode Amy and Lisa are coming for all of your excuses: The story in your head is just a story, you can totally change it Trying to feel “safe” will keep you playing “small” but you've got BIG dreams Stop letting people have opinions about how you live your life Behind your fear is a thought many of us have, ‘what will people think?' The powerhouse question Amy is asking you to ask yourself here is this, ‘what are you willing to burn down and build back to create the life you absolutely want?' It may be relationships, toxic dependencies, lack of boundaries, or a miserable nine to five you feel stuck at. How much is your happiness worth? What are you willing to do to build the life you dream of? Permission from others is not needed. Check out Amy's book, Two Weeks Notice: https://amzn.to/3Z6aO1y QUOTES: “You do it scared. You do it even though you don't believe in yourself. Action creates clarity, it is essential” “Until you're willing to let go of that safety net you will always be playing small.” “My capacity for zero is very high. I will burn this down and build it back up if I have to to get my business back to just be for me.” “The worst day as an entrepreneur is still better than your best day in your nine to five job.” “When you go after your dreams, be careful who you tell. Not everybody deserves to hear about your dreams.” “It's so important to know what you stand for and who you are before you put yourself out there and allow other people to have opinions.” “Proven to yourself that you can get back up when you get knocked down is the only way I know to find confidence.” “We still deal with the stuff that we dealt with on day one of being an entrepreneur. We just can navigate it in such a different way now.” Follow Amy : Website: https://www.amyporterfield.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AmyPorterfield Twitter: https://twitter.com/amyporterfield Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amyporterfield/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmyPorterfield/ Podcast: https://www.amyporterfield.com/amy-porterfield-podcast/

In this episode, I talk about the presence of trauma bonding in our relationships. This type of bonding involves the emotional attachment that we feel to a relationship despite the trauma that we have experienced from it. And this can be with friends, family, romantic partners, etc.We've all seen people and maybe even ourselves keep going back to people that aren't benefiting us in any way, shape, or form. But we keep doing it. And you might be confused as to why people keep going back to relationships that always cause trauma. But, that's not always the case.A lot of times these relationships involve a cyclical nature, where the person is abusive to their partner, they apologize with some sort of grand gesture, and fall back into the same habit as before. This leads the person who is a victim of this treatment to start putting the weight on themselves to help “fix” the other person.Through this episode, we will begin to understand that these relationships are more difficult to let go of than we might think, but with certain tips and tricks provided, we can take the right steps to do it.

Marni welcomes Brett Parker to the show. Brett walked away from his former career as a successful Hollywood director in LA. The burnout and overwhelm created a disconnect from everything he valued including his five-year-old son. He discovered a simple, elegant process to break free from the feeling of disconnect. He has since devoted his life to helping clients find their dream careers with passion, focus, and impact.   Takeaways from this episode:   Creating the life you want Stop making decisions from fear Get clear about your why Living your million-dollar story   Create the Life You Want [2:21]   Ladies, use this convo with Brett to remind you that every guy you meet has his own crazy going on in his life. After his divorce, Brett found it challenging, but in a good way. He focused on how he could show up to be the best dad because that was the most important thing to him. He was so burned out he felt as if he had no choice but to leave his previous life.   During a dark night on the couch, Brett decided to forget about all the limitations and create a list of his absolute wants and his non-negotiables. He says, we all have a choice and we either choose love or fear. The first step is to decide what we want. If we don't know what we want, we remain stuck.   When we feel stuck it is because we have made decisions out of fear.   Brett's Steps to Get Unstuck:   Walk down the road of fear. Consider the worst possible thing that can happen if you make a change. Embody the emotions you want to feel now. Get clear about what you want in your life. Be committed to living your why.   If you are waiting for the fear to pass you may be waiting forever.   The Process of Reframing [11:46]   Marni asks Brett what to do when we can't get clear about what it is we truly want. For example, when we know what we don't want but can't put our finger on what would make our future amazing.   Brett took the leap even though he was afraid he wasn't going to be there for the people important to him. Yet, in taking action, he was the happiest he had ever been in his life. He began embracing everything that came his way. He was learning new things and he was beginning to embody his why. He started to feel like the luckiest person in the world.   Success or love may not look like what you think it should look like.
