A player I have known for years told me they did not think they could advance in the game. If that player believes it, others do too. So this week I want to be clear. There is no real limit on your growth as a pickleball player. Not age. Not ability. The only limit is your decision not to grow. What actually derails players is trying to do too many things at once. The fix is one thing at a time. Lock it in, let the positive feedback loop build, then move to the next one.Second, a conversation from our Boston-area camp about expectations on the serve side. Because of the two-bounce rule, the serve team starts every rally at a positional disadvantage. When you go back to serve, you are more likely to lose the rally than win it. Not because you did anything wrong. Because that is how the sport is built. Set your expectations with that in mind.Third, our Partner Play series starts at the end of September and we are collecting stories. Share up to three things a partner has done that rubbed you the wrong way. Post it in the comments, in the community, or email tony@tonyroigpickleball.com with "My Story" in the subject line.

Limiting the side effects of cancer treatments has been an animating force in the field of oncology for many years, and there's been progress to report on that front, but what if you could target cancer tumors without using radiation or chemotherapy and instead generate heat from inside the tumor to kill cells? That's the quest of our guest today, Dr. Hadiyah-Nicole Green, whose promising research using lasers and nanoparticles to eliminate tumors received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA earlier this year. “The laser beam that we're using is low power like a laser pointer, and without activation by the laser, the nanoparticles are harmless. Both are targeted just at the site of the tumor so because we don't use systemic delivery, we avoid all of the systemic side effects,” she explains.Dr. Green is also the founder and president of the Ora Lee Smith Cancer Research Foundation, named for an aunt who raised her and who died of cancer without pursuing curative treatment because of her fear of the side effects. Shortly after, her aunt's husband also died of cancer, opting for treatments that took a heavy toll on his body. “At 22 years old, I saw the horrors of cancer and the horrors of cancer treatment and just felt in my heart that there has to be something better than this,” she tells host Michael Carrese.On this fascinating episode of Raise the Line from Elsevier, we'll explore the science behind Dr. Green's approach, the challenges of raising the millions of dollars needed for human clinical trials, and rethinking the current funding landscape for cancer treatments.Mentioned in this episode:Ora Lee Smith Cancer Research Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Why are some of the most talented women in the wedding industry still acting like wanting more money is something to apologise for?In this episode, I'm getting a little bit feisty about something I haven't been able to unsee since spending time working with women outside the wedding industry.The conversations were completely different.They talked about money. Profit. Wealth. Bigger goals. Raising their prices. Building businesses that paid them properly.Then I came back into weddings and realised just how much we've normalised playing small.So today, we're talking about the conversations I think this industry desperately needs to start having, why being brilliant at your craft and wanting to make serious money can absolutely coexist, and what happens when you stop letting other people's expectations set the ceiling for your business.We talk about:Why playing small has become so normal in the wedding industryThe weirdness around talking openly about money and ambitionWhy loving what you do doesn't mean you should earn lessThe conversations I want more wedding business owners to haveWhat can shift when you start surrounding yourself with bigger thinkersIf you know you want more from your wedding business but you've been shrinking your goals, second-guessing your prices or feeling like you should just be grateful to do what you love, this episode is for you.Relevant links:Australia's only business event for women in weddings is happening on the Gold Coast this November.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger explores what progress really looks like after a career setback, especially when confidence has taken a hit. Not getting the promotion, opportunity, or yes we were hoping for can quickly turn disappointment into a much harsher opinion about what the outcome says about us. Cindy explains why the real obstacle is often not a skills or knowledge gap, but a belief gap. Limiting beliefs can turn one setback into a reason to play small, stay under the radar, and stop putting ourselves forward. The challenge is learning to separate the facts of what happened from the story we build. Progress in a low-confidence season rarely looks like the traditional workplace scoreboard. Cindy reframes progress as how quickly and skillfully we recover from setbacks, learn from them, and take the next deliberate action. That means processing disappointment without turning it into self-punishment, recognizing dysfunctional systems and bias without internalizing them, and building a private record of our own growth. A setback can teach us that we need more visible sponsorship, better communication about our accomplishments, or greater clarity about what success actually requires. Tracking our recovery time, lessons learned, actions taken, and the ways we have become faster, calmer, and clearer gives us an internal scoreboard we can trust, even when external recognition is slow to arrive. Confidence is not a prerequisite for action. It's often the result of it. Cindy encourages us to stop waiting until we feel ready and instead focus on small actions that allow confidence to compound quietly over time. She also explains why both emotion and logic have a role in creating momentum. Emotion lights the match and logic builds the fire pit around it. Real progress might mean catching a limiting belief before it becomes a decision, sitting with discomfort instead of retreating, putting a lesson into action, shortening our recovery time, or doing one small, brave thing before we feel ready. None of that may appear on someone else's highlight reel, but it still counts as progress.

Technology promises to make life better, boost productivity, connect us, and help us learn. But what does it do to childhood? Where is the evidence that a screen-based childhood is best for kids? We all know that sitting still, staring at screens, watching who-knows-what is not good for healthy child development. And it's time for parents to rebel against this tsunami of technology.

Cam, JJ, and Vatsal break down why structured performance reviews are the ultimate habit for consistent trading, revealing how to track behavioral patterns like tilt and sleep. Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/dtc-32/ Key moments - Trading without reviewing is total guesswork; memory is selective and heavily influenced by emotion [02:05]. - Professionals judge themselves by execution (following rules, managing risk) rather than short-term profit and loss [05:55]. - Reviewing trades consistently reveals behavioral patterns, such as how sleep deprivation directly triggers trading tilt [16:23]. - Small, compounded refinements are far more powerful than major, dramatic strategy overhauls [11:03]. - Limiting your trading window to peak performance hours (e.g., 3 hours max) prevents giving back profits during choppy, low-probability sessions [25:30]. - A trading journal should record enough detail to explain why you entered, how you managed, and why you exited a trade [32:12]. - Always review both winning and losing trades; winning trades can often mask poor decisions and lucky mistakes [34:20].

Lyn sits down with licensed clinical social worker and couples therapist Keith Jordan to explore what it truly takes to mend and sustain romantic partnerships. Drawing on four decades of mental health experience, Keith breaks down common relationship pitfalls—from communication breakdowns and infidelity to escalating retaliations—and offers actionable strategies to diffuse tension before it destroys trust.  Together, they unpack why active listening must replace defensiveness, how setting personal boundaries differs from controlling your partner, and why shedding rigid "shoulds" opens the door to genuine emotional growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS True active listening requires giving your partner full, uninterrupted attention rather than formulating a mental rebuttal while they speak. Establishing boundaries should focus on identifying and expressing your own core needs rather than attempting to dictate what your partner should or should not do. Limiting speaking turns to 60 seconds prevents overwhelming monologues and allows partners to clarify meaning rather than making defensive assumptions. Overcoming defensiveness begins when individuals realise that conflicts are not an attack on their character, opening the door for constructive problem-solving over blame. BEST MOMENTS "Listen to what they're saying from their point of view rather than preparing your rebuttal to what they're saying."  "A lot of argument... happens even though people are actually in agreement, but they don't realise that they are."  "Defensiveness often is... a reaction based on the person trying to assert that they're a good person, as if they're being accused of not being the right kind of person..."  "Concepts of what how things should be, you know, the world doesn't really operate according to should. It's a man-made construct, it's not really a spiritual concept at all." ABOUT THE HOST Lyn Smith – (The Queen of HEARTS) – Love, Dating & Relationship Expert Lyn's personal story is a very inspirational and harrowing one of how she went from having unhealthy and unfulfilling relationships with men (on the back of several serious traumatic sexual assaults in her teens) to now feeling safe, fulfilled, alive, full of passion and having inner peace.

1. The old gaming console as a metaphor for personal-development beliefs The conversation opened by connecting an old gaming console from the 1980s with beliefs that continue to circulate in personal development 00:00. Old gaming consoles were described as antiques, while repeatedly recycled personal-development sayings were presented as “belief antiques” 00:30. The discussion distinguished between appreciating old ideas and adopting them automatically without examining their effects. A key question emerged: what happens when a belief is installed unconsciously, and what price is paid for keeping it? 2. The belief that people must become a better version of themselves The central belief examined was “becoming the better version of yourself” 01:03. The idea was described as potentially useful in certain situations or stages, but harmful when treated as a permanent life objective 01:17. Constantly aiming to become better was connected with stress, fear, depression, and the feeling of never being good enough 01:36. The phrase was linked to the New Age movement of the 1970s and 1980s 01:55. The discussion questioned whether a person can ever finish the process of becoming better, or ever turn the pursuit off 03:06. 3. Personal development as distraction rather than transformation Several points were raised about people who are already working, moving, and doing constantly 02:12. Activity was described as potentially distracting when it fails to produce genuine transformation 02:27. The concept of “threshold addicts” was introduced to describe people who repeatedly approach progress without moving through a meaningful threshold 02:41. Examples included reading personal-development books, scrolling through social media for motivational quotes, and collecting insights that reinforce the feeling of working on oneself 02:46. The discussion challenged the assumption that consuming more personal-development content necessarily creates change. 4. Questioning inherited beliefs A key theme that emerged was the need to think independently about traditional personal-development sayings 03:12. Respect for older ideas was separated from unquestioned acceptance of those ideas. The discussion proposed examining whether a belief is still true. Another proposed test was to ask what the belief does to a person, what gain it provides, and what price it creates 03:26. “Becoming the better version of yourself” was criticized for implying that the current version is incomplete or inadequate 03:42. 5. The marketing power of inadequacy The phrase “become the best version of yourself” was described as highly effective marketing language 04:18. The promise of becoming better was connected to the human desire for validation. Courses, mentoring, and personal-development programs can use that promise to suggest that enrollment will produce a superior or complete version of the individual 04:30. The discussion questioned whether paying for and completing a course actually makes a person the “better” or “best” version of the self 04:42. The belief that improvement is required was connected to the pain of feeling inadequate, which can make promises of transformation especially persuasive 08:20. 6. The alternative belief that people are already enough The discussion offered a different starting point: a person is already the best version of themselves and does not need to move somewhere else to become complete 05:00. Salvation, solutions, and transformation were framed as things not ultimately found in the outside world 05:20. Courses and mentoring were not rejected, but their value was tied to increasing internal awareness rather than producing a new identity 05:43. The alternative perspective emphasized being already free, good enough, perfect, and permitted to be oneself 09:26. Personal growth was reframed as becoming more conscious of existing internal patterns, rather than constructing a superior self. 7. Programming, beliefs, and learned strategies One concept discussed was the idea that people are naturally capable of standing out as unique, but often learn strategies for fitting in 05:58. These strategies can include unconscious programming, beliefs, rules, and “laws” adopted earlier in life 09:52. Beliefs that once helped a person were described as potentially becoming restrictive later. The discussion focused on identifying internal programming that affects language, actions, patterns, and results 07:17. Limiting beliefs were compared with self-created prisons that need to be recognized and gradually uncovered 13:12. 8. Awareness as the purpose of courses, mentoring, and challenging experiences The discussion explored how courses, mentoring, nature experiences, mountain climbing, and ice baths can function as “training wheels” for increasing consciousness and awareness 06:38. External experiences were presented as useful when they direct attention back toward internal reality. A mentoring conversation was described as an interaction in which contrasting perspectives help reveal patterns, beliefs, word choices, actions, and consequences 07:17. The purpose was framed as going inward and becoming more aware of the reality a person carries internally. This approach was contrasted with working toward a future version of the self that is supposedly better than the present version 07:48. 9. The emotional cost of believing the current self is not good enough The belief that improvement is always required was linked to stress, depression, fear of exposure, and imposter feelings 07:56. The phrase “I'm not good enough” was presented as a source of pain that can keep the improvement cycle moving 08:58. The promise of eventually becoming perfect was described as a “magic pill” for salvation and validation 08:25. Replacing the assumption of inadequacy with “I am the best version of myself” was presented as a way to remove pressure from the process 08:41. The problem was located in internal patterning rather than in an external condition that must first be fixed 10:21. 10. Joy, laughter, and play as essential parts of growth The conversation shifted from serious inner work to the importance of joy, laughter, and play 10:56. A memorable concept was introduced: “joy and laughter, it's the lubricant of life” 11:13. People engaged in personal development were described as often forgetting how to play. Questions about the last experience of genuine joy revealed periods of five, six, seven, or ten years without intentional play, with some memories reaching back only to childhood 11:37. The discussion presented play as a way to change a person's state of being and experience life differently 14:00. 11. The gaming-console analogy and progressing through life The gaming device was connected with play, entertainment, fun, and connection with others 11:44. The phrase “playing the game of life” was used to describe engaging with life through joy rather than constant seriousness. Playing was presented as necessary for reaching the next level 12:27. Games from the 1980s were used to illustrate difficulty, limited support systems, the lack of save points, and the need to start over after mistakes 12:41. Life was compared with those games because there are no simple cheat codes, even though smarter thinking and different actions can create shorter paths 13:01. 12. Difficulty, mistakes, and starting over The discussion emphasized that recognizing limiting beliefs may not be complex, but can still be hard to do 13:12. Frustration in old games, such as getting stuck or losing progress at the end of the day, was compared with setbacks in life 13:33. Mistakes were framed as part of the process rather than evidence that a person is fundamentally inadequate. The gaming analogy was extended to stage presence, relationships, and other areas where people can practice responding with more fun and less fear 15:37. Allowing mistakes was presented as an alternative to approaching every situation through fear of judgment or exposure 15:01. 13. Bringing play into performance and relationships The discussion explored approaching public speaking with the intention to have fun, laugh with people, and allow mistakes 15:01. Stage presence was presented as something that can be practiced through a different emotional and physical state. The same idea was applied to relationships, including relationships with a wife or husband 15:37. Serious and connecting conversations were recognized as important, while joy and laughter were presented as equally necessary. People who authentically experience and bring joy were described as creating a presence others want to be around 15:58. 14. Seriousness, forgotten joy, and self-reflection Clients were described as sometimes being excessively serious, which was framed not as proof of imperfection but as evidence that joy has been forgotten 16:29. A self-reflective question was raised: “Would I marry myself?” 16:29. The point was not to abandon serious conversations or responsibilities, but to restore fun and pleasure to everyday life. The conversation distinguished between intellectually agreeing that joy matters and actually doing something joyful 16:44. 15. Action, slowing down, and integration One practical sequence was outlined: choose something genuinely fun, do it, slow down, and allow the experience to sink in 17:06. This process was described as integration and transformation. The intended result was not becoming a superior version of the self, but “chipping away” at the prisons created through unconscious conditioning 17:25. The discussion encouraged using an external or internal gaming device to create more play and recognize existing perfection 17:44. 16. Sharing experiences to increase awareness The closing section invited listeners to share what happened after recognizing that they were already good enough and had created limiting prisons for themselves 18:18. The prompt also asked what intentional action brought more play into life and changed the person's state 18:41. Sharing was framed as a way to inspire others and increase collective awareness. The discussion returned to exploring old beliefs rather than automatically discarding them 19:34. A final invitation was offered to identify a better belief that could help the individual and other people 20:11. Let's connect online: 1. INSTAGRAM: https://snip.ly/2ognlc 2.

In this episode, I'm uncovering 8 ways you may be unknowingly limiting what's possible for you. Through time, money, your body, business, identity, other people and the circumstances around you. We're looking at the places where “this is just how it is” has quietly become a ceiling, so you can stop using what's true today to determine what gets to be possible tomorrow.Because you may not need to become more limitless. You may simply need to stop being so certain about what's impossible.To join the Limitless Mastermind, DM Liv 'LIMITLESS' on Instagram for the details.Links:Open the floodgate to money: https://www.keepupwithliv.com/floodgateJoin the FREE secret podcast, Regulated:https://keepupwithliv.myflodesk.com/gc1rmymonz  Instagram: http://instagram.com/keepupwithliv  Website: https://www.keepupwithliv.com/  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/keepupwithliv

In this episode, Mike Rankin and Nigel French celebrate the conclusion of the 12-part series, which began as a pair of articles in InDesign Magazine back in 2013 and was later revisited and expanded for CreativePro Magazine. They look back at the long journey of the series and the ideas at its heart: studying the past, learning by doing, embracing constraints, understanding the rules of design, and knowing when to step away from the computer. They also talk about Nigel's approach to typography and composition, the influence of his photography on his design work, and the ongoing challenge of putting his own advice into practice. Key Takeaways: Study the past to understand the present. Learn from the history of design and typography, and look closely at how designers before you solved familiar problems. Paint the back of the fence. Take pride in the details that may never be seen by building files that are organized, thoughtful, and usable by whoever needs to work with them next. Don't polish a weak idea. When you find yourself endlessly nudging, tweaking, and adjusting, step away from the computer and ask whether the underlying idea is strong enough. Know the rules before you break them. Understand the principles behind established design practices so you can make deliberate choices about when to follow, adapt, or abandon them. Design is simple, that's what makes it so complicated. Limiting your choices can focus your thinking and lead to simpler, stronger solutions. Keep learning, no matter how experienced you are. The deeper you get into design, the more you realize there is to learn, so stay curious and embrace being a perpetual student.

We often limit ourselves through unconscious thoughts and assumptions about our capabilities, which will shape our behavior and ultimately determine our outcomes. Key Takeaways People unconsciously impose limiting beliefs on themselves, which restrict their potential and shape who they become Limiting thoughts are not always overtly negative — they often manifest as quiet assumptions about what one can or cannot achieve Health outcomes are 100% behavior-driven, and behaviors are directly influenced by one's belief system Expanding one's mental "box" — rather than eliminating limiting thoughts entirely — can lead to behavioral change and ultimately life improvement Comparing oneself to others and attributing their success to external factors (intelligence, wealth, athleticism) reinforces self-limiting beliefs Visit ConfidenceThroughHealth.com to find discounts to some of our favorite products.Follow me via All In Health and Wellness on Facebook or Instagram.Find my books on Amazon: No More Sugar Coating: Finding Your Happiness in a Crowded World and Confidence Through Health: Live the Healthy Lifestyle God DesignedProduction credit: Social Media Cowboys

Http://tappingqanda.com/support Subscribe in: Apple Podcast | iPhone | Spotify | Pandora | Amazon Music | iHeartRadio  | YouTube Limiting beliefs are one of the most common obstacles I hear about from people in the tapping community, and they are also one of the things tapping is best equipped to address. In nearly two decades of working with clients and students, tapping for limiting beliefs has become one of my favorite applications of EFT, because the results are direct, fast, and felt immediately in daily life. TL;DR / Key Takeaways A limiting belief is a subconscious affirmation about how the world works that exists to keep you safe, not to hold you back. It only becomes a problem when it is disproportionate to actual risk or based on inaccurate information. Intellectual understanding alone cannot clear a limiting belief. Transformation requires working at the subconscious level, which is exactly where EFT tapping operates through a process called memory reconsolidation. The five-step tapping process for limiting beliefs takes under three minutes and can be used immediately on any belief that is getting in your way. Fighting or dismissing a limiting belief makes it dig in harder. The key is to first acknowledge the belief's protective intention, then show it how it is working against you. Replacing a limiting belief requires a statement the subconscious can actually accept. Overclaiming ("everything will be perfect") creates resistance. A grounded permission statement creates movement. Why Limiting Beliefs Are So Hard to Shake Limiting beliefs are hard to shake because they are not flaws in your thinking. They are features of your protective system doing exactly what they were designed to do. Your subconscious mind holds on to these beliefs precisely because it believes they are keeping you safe. Think about it this way: I do not jump into the tiger cage at the zoo. That is a limiting belief. But I do not experience it as one because it is proportionate to real danger. The limiting beliefs that cause us problems work the same way on the inside. They generate resistance to protect us from what they perceive as threat, whether that threat is rejection, failure, judgment, or loss. This is why willpower and positive thinking rarely work on their own. If you try to override a protective belief by force, the subconscious mind digs its heels in. The resistance is not an enemy. It is a misguided guardian. What Is a Limiting Belief, Really? A limiting belief is a subconscious affirmation about how the world works that is either inaccurate, disproportionate, or based on outdated information. It exists to create protective resistance, not to punish you. This definition matters because it completely changes how you approach the work. Most people treat their limiting beliefs as character defects or signs that something is fundamentally broken in them. But a limiting belief is just a story your subconscious mind wrote, probably a long time ago, with the information it had available at the time. The story made sense once. It just has not been updated. Key insight: "Limiting beliefs are always going to get the best of us. They keep us safe. What we're really frustrated by is the fact that the limiting belief has gotten in the way of us doing the thing we want because it's not doing it in a way that's proportionate or that is well informed." Every limiting belief you carry is trying to protect you from something. The question is never whether the protection is well-intentioned. It always is. The question is whether it is accurate and proportionate to the actual situation in front of you right now. Why Tapping for Limiting Beliefs Works When Willpower Doesn't Tapping works on limiting beliefs because it targets the subconscious level where those beliefs actually live, through a neurological process called memory reconsolidation. Willpower operates at the conscious level and cannot reach them. Memory reconsolidation is the process by which stored memories and the emotional responses attached to them are retrieved, modified, and re-saved. When you tap while focusing on a limiting belief, you are not just thinking differently about a problem. You are creating the conditions for the subconscious story to be rewritten and stored again in a new form. This is what makes tapping categorically different from affirmations, journaling, or talk therapy alone, all of which are enormously valuable but operate primarily at the conscious level. Key insight: "It is not enough to simply intellectually understand that the limiting belief you are carrying is not true. If all it required for you to transform a limiting belief was to know that it was not true, then the only thing we would need for healing and transformation are bumper stickers and posters of kitty cats hanging in there." This is why knowing better is not enough. You can know, with full certainty, that your fear of rejection is irrational, and still feel the brakes go on every time you try to put yourself out there. Tapping is one of the few tools that reaches both the conscious and subconscious levels simultaneously. If you want to understand more about why the subconscious mind resists change even when you consciously want it, this episode on the subconscious tug of war goes deep on that dynamic. The 5-Step Tapping Process for Limiting Beliefs The five-step tapping process for limiting beliefs takes under three minutes and can be applied immediately to any belief that is currently getting in your way. You do not need to have all the steps memorized. A reasonable guess at each one is enough to get results. To illustrate each step, I will use a concrete example: the belief that says "I can't ask this person to partner with me because they're going to reject me and I'll feel foolish." Step 1: Wordless Tapping Start with one full minute of tapping with no words at all. Move from point to point at your own pace, taking a deep breath as you begin. If you do not want to set a timer, three or four rounds of six to seven taps per point will cover it. Wordless tapping does two things: it settles your nervous system and brings you into your body before you begin the heavier cognitive work. Starting a limiting belief session already activated makes every subsequent step harder. This first step is short, but skipping it costs you. For a deeper look at how content-free tapping works and when to use it, see this episode on eight ways to use content-free tapping. Step 2: Name the Belief and Its Impact Tap through the points while saying out loud what the belief is and what it is causing you to do (or not do). Something like: "I recognize that I am carrying this belief, and the belief is [your belief here], and this limiting belief is preventing me from taking action, making me hesitant, and stopping me from doing what I want." Naming the belief out loud does something important: it moves it from a vague background feeling into a specific, examinable object. You cannot address what you cannot clearly see. Step 3: Honor the Belief's Protective Intent Still tapping, shift to acknowledging what the belief is trying to do for you: "I recognize that this limiting belief exists because it is simply trying to keep me safe. It does not want me to rush in, be judged, be rejected, or do something foolish. And I appreciate the fact that it is holding me back in an effort to keep me safe." This step is not about agreeing that the belief is correct. It is about getting your subconscious mind on board with the process. Key insight: "It's kind of like a handshake with the subconscious mind saying we're on the same team. If I say, subconscious mind, you're wrong, it's going to dig its heels in." Skipping this step is one of the most common reasons tapping on limiting beliefs stalls. The subconscious mind will not release a belief it thinks you are attacking. This episode on turning intellectual pushback into tapping progress explores this pattern in more detail. Step 4: Show the Belief How It's Backfiring Now, still tapping, let the belief know that its protective strategy is producing the opposite of what it intends: "Even though you are trying to keep me safe, you are actually doing the exact opposite. You are making the world more dangerous because you are preventing me from doing the things that will help me grow, evolve, and move forward." This step works because it speaks the subconscious mind's language. You are not telling it it is wrong. You are showing it that its own goal, your safety and wellbeing, is better served by loosening its grip. Step 5: Replace It with a Credible Truth Finally, tap while offering a realistic replacement: "I appreciate the fact that it is possible for me, in thoughtful and deliberate ways, to move forward safely. This does not mean I am going to be thoughtless or reckless. I am engaging with this in thoughtful and deliberate ways, and I give myself permission to trust that I can move forward safely." Notice what this step does not say. It does not say "everything will work out perfectly" or "there is nothing to worry about." Those statements are not believable to the subconscious mind, and an unbelievable affirmation creates resistance rather than releasing it. The goal is a truth the subconscious can accept, a permission statement that says: I can move, and moving does not mean abandoning care. Why You Can't Just Think Your Way Out of a Limiting Belief Thinking alone cannot clear a limiting belief because the belief does not live in your thinking mind. It lives in the subconscious, and the subconscious does not respond to logic. Reading the right book, understanding why a belief is irrational, or receiving encouragement can all be genuinely useful. But none of them reach the level where the belief is actually stored. They inform the conscious mind without rewriting the subconscious story. Tapping works at both levels simultaneously. You hold the belief in conscious focus while the physical act of tapping sends a calming signal to the amygdala, the brain's threat-detection center. That combination allows the memory to be accessed, modified, and re-stored. The belief does not just get quieter. It gets rewritten. If intellectual understanding has been your primary tool and you keep hitting the same walls, this episode on why you resist taking healthy action is a useful companion read. How to Use This Process for Any Limiting Belief Tapping for limiting beliefs is effective on any belief that is disproportionate to actual risk or based on outdated information. The example used throughout this post was the fear of rejection in a partnership conversation, but the same five steps apply to beliefs about money, visibility, worthiness, health, creative work, or any other domain where you feel stuck. Key insight: "The only way I can create a life that I love is if I actually take action. Nothing happens until we move. Limiting beliefs prevent us from taking action and moving. Therefore, when a limiting belief is disproportionate or misinformed, it prevents us from creating the life that is meant for us." You do not need to have the belief perfectly identified before you start. Begin with what you know. If you feel the resistance but cannot fully name what is driving it, start with wordless tapping and let the clarity come as you move through the steps. If you want to track your tapping practice and build consistency with this kind of work, Tapping Tracker is a simple tool designed to help you do exactly that. For more on how tapping and affirmations work together once a belief has been cleared, see this episode on tapping and affirmations as a transformation duo. Frequently Asked Questions What is a limiting belief in EFT tapping? In EFT, a limiting belief is a subconscious story about how the world works that creates resistance to action. It is not a character flaw. It is a protective mechanism that becomes problematic when it is disproportionate to actual risk or based on outdated information. Tapping works on limiting beliefs by accessing the subconscious level where they are stored. Can tapping really clear a limiting belief in a few minutes? Yes, particularly for beliefs that are clearly defined and moderately activated. The five-step process described here takes under three minutes and is designed to produce immediate relief from the resistance the belief generates. Deeper or more complex beliefs, especially those rooted in significant past experiences, may benefit from multiple sessions or work with a practitioner. Why do limiting beliefs come back after tapping? A limiting belief can resurface if it has multiple layers, if the root experience has not been fully addressed, or if the replacement truth offered in step five was not fully believable to the subconscious mind. When a belief returns, that is useful information. It points to a deeper layer or a related belief that is also worth tapping on. What is memory reconsolidation and how does it relate to tapping? Memory reconsolidation is the neurological process by which stored memories are retrieved, modified, and re-saved with new emotional content. EFT tapping leverages this process by pairing focused attention on a belief with the calming input of tapping on acupressure points, creating conditions for the subconscious story to be rewritten rather than suppressed. Do I have to know exactly what my limiting belief is before I start tapping? No. You can begin with wordless tapping and a general sense of where the resistance is. Clarity often emerges during the tapping process itself, particularly after step one settles the nervous system. Start with what you know, even if it is just "I feel stuck about this." How is tapping for limiting beliefs different from affirmations? Affirmations work at the conscious level and are most effective after a limiting belief has already been cleared or softened. Tapping works at the subconscious level, where the belief is actually stored, through the physical act of stimulating acupressure points while holding the belief in focus. Used together, after tapping clears the resistance, affirmations can reinforce the new story. This episode on tapping and affirmations explains how to sequence them effectively. What is the fear of rejection example in this episode about? The fear of rejection example illustrates a belief that says "If I ask this person to partner with me, they will reject me and I will feel foolish." Gene uses this example to walk through each of the five tapping steps in real time, demonstrating how the process addresses both the specific fear and the underlying protective mechanism driving it. For a deeper dive into tapping for rejection specifically, see this post on breaking free from the fear of rejection.

Have you ever known exactly what you wanted to change…but somehow kept doing the same thing?Maybe you want to change a pattern in your relationship.Make a move in your career.Take better care of yourself.Or finally go after something you've been thinking about for months.You know what you want.And yet… you keep postponing it.I've been there too.There was a season when I knew exactly how I wanted my personal life and business to feel. I had my North Star.But for six months to a year, I kept putting off some of the very decisions that would take me there.Why?Limiting beliefs.And the tricky thing about limiting beliefs is that we often don't even know we have them.They hide underneath the complaints we repeat, the conversations we have with our friends, and the stories we've told ourselves so many times that they simply feel like facts.In this week's episode, I'm sharing three practical ways I use to bring those hidden beliefs to the surface, including a journaling practice that can help you move beyond the story you already consciously know and begin uncovering what may be sitting underneath it. Because before we can change a limiting belief…we have to be able to see it.Episode Timestamps00:53 — My own “North Star” and the beliefs that kept me from moving toward it 03:18 — Why limiting beliefs keep us stuck in the same patterns 04:56 — Start here: choose one specific area where you feel stuck 06:58 — Tool #1: Listen to your recurring complaints 09:05 — The difference between a circumstance and the belief you attach to it 10:16 — Tool #2: Pay attention to what you and your friends vent about 12:23 — Tool #3: Use journaling to uncover what's beneath the surface 13:51 — The journaling trick that takes you beyond your conscious story 15:49 — Putting all three tools together 17:38 — What's coming in Part 2And this is only Part 1.This week, your job is simply to find the beliefs that may be quietly running the show.Don't rush to change them yet.Use these three tools, get curious, and write down what you uncover, because we're going to use exactly what you find in next week's episode:3 Tools to Remove Limiting Beliefs From Your Subconscious Mind [Part 2]That's where I'll show you what to actually do with these beliefs once you've brought them into the light.So do the exercises from today, keep your notes somewhere close, and meet me back here next week for Part 2.Want to go deeper?Sometimes the beliefs we uncover aren't just thoughts we can talk ourselves out of. They're connected to deeper emotional patterns, old wounds, and reactions that can keep showing up even when we intellectually know better.That's exactly the kind of deeper work we do inside Untriggerable.And we now have a new home on Circle where you can learn more about the program, access resources, and join our community.Join us inside the Untriggerable community on CircleI'd love to see you there.

Over a million words. Unfinished manuscripts abandoned across an entire lifetime. His daughters called him a writer. His wife called him a writer. He didn't believe it himself. That gap, between who others see you as and who you see yourself as, is where Lester Clowes built an entire coaching practice. And this episode is the most honest version of that work, out loud. Dr. Lester Clowes is the founder of Defy the Average and author of Stop Lying to Yourself, a framework-first book on promised debt, identity, and what it takes to finally start believing your own word again. In this wide-ranging conversation, he and George go deep on motivation porn, the default vs. directional identity, and why embarrassingly small promises beat massive Sunday-night overhauls every time. What You'll Learn In This Episode: What promised debt is and how deep in the red most people actually are Why motivation porn is the drug of choice for smart, ambitious people The difference between your default identity and your directional identity Why productivity without identity work just makes you a more efficient broken person The "so what" script for breaking out of the justified victim loop How to start embarrassingly small and why that's the fastest path forward The beliefs, values, and protocol framework for building the identity of your choosing Key Takeaways: ✔️Every broken promise to yourself is still on the ledger. Most people are so deep in the red they've stopped believing their own word entirely. ✔️Motivation porn gives you the dopamine hit of action without the action. If you feel productive while consuming, you're probably addicted. ✔️A more efficient system with a broken identity just makes a more efficient broken person. ✔️Your default identity doesn't have to win, it just has to delay long enough that the directional identity doesn't. ✔️The "so what" script: I'm right, the circumstances were real, so what? That question breaks the justified victim loop. ✔️Start embarrassingly small. When you've racked up massive promised debt, the smallest micro-commitment feels like a miracle. ✔️A flat tire is not a reason to slash the other three. One broken promise is data, not a verdict. ✔️What you have right now is a perfect reflection of who you are today. That's not judgment, that's a starting point.

It's easy to focus on what's standing in our way. But Paul chose to focus on the opportunities that remained instead of the limitations he faced. Today we'll explore how faith helps us shift our perspective, maximize the opportunities God gives us, and continue making a difference no matter our circumstances. What opportunities might God be inviting you to see today?Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside's conviction that God's grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God's presence and activity in your life.

The episode examines margin disparity and operational strategy for MSPs serving regulated industries, spotlighting how compliance-driven overhead can become a structural moat for providers targeting underserved segments. The discussion centers on Trumbull Tech's model, which leverages a minimal-staff, tool-focused approach to deliver compliant services to small client bases (1–50 seats) across legal, financial, and healthcare verticals. The analysis underscores the risk and complexity inherent in regulated environments, noting that as vendors begin to package compliance offerings alongside MSPs, the defensibility of this margin advantage may erode. Trumbull Tech operates with gross margins well above channel averages—reporting 55–60%, attributed to intentional client selection, rigorous cost modeling, a preference for lightweight device management (MDM) solutions over enterprise-heavy platforms like Microsoft Intune, and strict avoidance of fixed, unlimited support contracts. The company's operational approach bundles basic but essential compliance tools, such as BitLocker enforcement, password complexity, password rotation, remote wipe, and targeted endpoint management, tailored specifically for smaller businesses. This model is predicated on the belief that most regulatory mandates can be reasonably satisfied with a uniform, low-overhead stack, thereby avoiding the staff overhead typical of more complex enterprise solutions. Supporting developments in the episode include an account of security intervention using Huntress with a small remote CPA firm, illustrating both the ubiquity of risk (not limited to large organizations) and the practical utility of combining automation with incident response. The conversation also touches on AI adoption hesitancy in small regulated businesses, logistics of relationship-based staffing for stickiness, and the rejection of strict vertical specialization in favor of scalable, stack-based delivery. These elements collectively describe a playbook where risk containment is achieved through standardization and upfront client selection, rather than deep customization. Implications for MSPs and IT providers include the need to critically assess their service models in the context of regulatory risk, operational scalability, and margin management. Overdependence on a specific set of tools or a uniform client profile may limit adaptability as vendor offerings and client expectations evolve. Providers entering or serving regulated markets should recognize that margin advantages rooted in compliance operations depend on active management of client selection, tool stack efficiency, and transparent risk tradeoffs, as opposed to reliance on elaborate enterprise frameworks or unlimited support promises. Attention to practical safeguards, clear lines of accountability, and periodic reassessment of vendor overlap is essential to remain viable as compliance delivery mechanisms evolve.

Undersheriff Sylvia Moir has spent nearly four decades serving in law enforcement, leading six different agencies, serving as Chief of Police in three cities, and now helping lead the Marin County Sheriff's Office. But as she explains in this conversation, her career was never about chasing titles, it was about becoming exceptional at the role she was in, saying yes to opportunities, and giving more than she expected in return. In this episode of The Chief Exchange Podcast, Sylvia shares why she believes comparison is the thief of joy, how "give to gain" has shaped her leadership philosophy, and why resilience is built every time we choose to step into the arena despite uncertainty. We also discuss the difference between leaders with substance and "Hollow Bunnies," the importance of being tactically sound instead of simply hoping to go home safely, and why leaders must be willing to embrace discomfort if they truly want to grow. We also dive into Sylvia's journey through six law enforcement agencies, the power of self-reflection and micro-adjustments, why timing often matters more than having a perfectly scripted career plan, lessons from David Brooks' The Second Mountain, why police and fire collaboration has never been more important, and what she knows today that she wishes she had known when she first put on the badge.

One of the biggest reasons smart, capable people stay in careers that don't fit is contributed to a well-documented quirk of human psychology called the availability heuristic. It states, if the only version of work you've ever known is the one you've been living, your brain literally cannot picture anything different. In this episode, we'll unpack three ways to change that without making a dramatic career shift. You'll also learn: Why thinking harder about your career options never works and what rewires your beliefs faster than any amount of reflection alone How a single 15-minute test drive conversation can expand what feels possible more than months of research or planning Why career change over 40 isn't starting over, it's the moment you finally have enough experience to do work entirely on your own terms What work can actually look like when you stop assuming it has to look like what you've always known.   Our book, Happen To Your Career: An Unconventional Approach To Career Change and Meaningful Work, is now available on audiobook!

On today's episode of The CLS Experience we have a transformative conversation with somatic educator and holistic nutrition expert Luis Mojica about the powerful connection between food, anxiety, stress, trauma, and human performance. Inspired by his book Food Therapy: Conscious Eating to Navigate Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma, Luis breaks down the concept of “food induced stress” and explains how what we eat directly impacts nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, clarity, leadership, and business capacity. Luis shares his framework of depressant, stimulant, and balancing foods, revealing how many high performers unknowingly rely on stimulants like caffeine and sugar that spike adrenaline, increase reactivity, and contribute to burnout. Together, Craig and Luis explore cravings as emotional and physiological signals, the role of shame in eating patterns, and how balancing foods like protein, fats, fiber, beans, and greens can stabilize glucose and support nervous system healing. Luis also opens up about his own trauma and binge eating journey that led him into this work, while offering practical tools around mindful eating, body awareness, glucose monitoring, and recovery. This conversation is eye opening, practical, deeply healing, and filled with wisdom for anyone looking to improve their energy, emotional regulation, and overall quality of life.01:41 Food Stress Explained21:11 Nervous System Ripple23:07 Cravings As Compass30:54 Foods That Spike AnxietyCheck out Luis on Instagram HERE:Check out Luis HERE:Grab Luis's Book HERE:See me speak at Cathy's Event HERE:Early Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ Order a copy of Craig's book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and wisdom to elevate your life, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

#1009 What if the thing keeping you stuck isn't a lack of skills, but a question you've never actually answered? In this episode, Cliff Ravenscraft reveals why 9 out of 10 podcasters quit before episode seven — and it has nothing to do with gear, skill, or audio quality. After building an audience of hundreds of thousands and nearly dying from overwork in his first year of business, Cliff discovered that most entrepreneurs confuse their desired outcome with the tactics they hope will get them there. In this first installment of a special two-part conversation, he shares how limiting beliefs about money and self-worth kept him trapped in a cycle of shiny-object syndrome, and how mentors like Dan Miller helped him rewire his thinking — leading to a mastermind offer that's generated over a million dollars. Tune in for a raw, honest look at what really separates entrepreneurs who build lasting momentum from those who burn out chasing the next big idea! What we discuss with Cliff: + Why 9 out of 10 podcasters quit before episode 7 + Confusing desired outcomes with tactics + Building an audience of hundreds of thousands + Nearly dying from overwork in year one + Earning $11,000 after a brutal first year + Limiting beliefs about money and self-worth + The "ministry mindset" vs. business mindset + How Dan Miller challenged his mastermind idea + Turning one idea into a $1M+ mastermind + Escaping shiny object syndrome through mentorship Thank you, Cliff!

In this episode, Travis is joined by producer Eric and guest co-host Brandon Birkmeyer, host of the Brands on Brands podcast, to break down a viral piece of personal finance advice claiming you should focus entirely on making more money instead of budgeting. The trio explores where that advice gets it right, where it falls apart, and why lasting wealth comes from balancing income growth with financial discipline. Along the way, Travis shares personal stories about downsizing his lifestyle to pursue podcasting full-time and the lessons he's learned from interviewing hundreds of successful entrepreneurs. On this episode we talk about: Why increasing your income is more powerful than endlessly cutting expenses The importance of budgeting—even as your income grows How lifestyle inflation quietly prevents people from building wealth Travis' story of downsizing his lifestyle to bet on his podcasting career Why creating financial runway gives entrepreneurs the freedom to take bigger risks Top 3 Takeaways Growing your income is essential, but it's only effective if you maintain the financial discipline to keep your expenses under control. Reducing your lifestyle costs can create the runway needed to pursue entrepreneurship or other long-term opportunities. Wealth isn't built by appearances—it's built by consistently widening the gap between what you earn and what you spend. Notable Quotes "Your ability to earn will significantly outweigh your ability to cut—if you've already handled the basics." "Limiting your lifestyle gives you more freedom. Full stop." "Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems when you've got some money in the bank."

Forgiveness isn't condoning the behavior. No. It's more about understanding that everyone does the best we can based on how we think. And, as Maya Angelou observed: “If they knew better they would have done better.” How they behaved made sense to them at the time (read that twice), even if their actions were foolish and hurtful.

Erick makes the case for letting Israel off the chain against Iran, reporting that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wants a face-to-face with Donald Trump at Lindsey Graham's funeral but is being blocked by isolationists in Vice President JD Vance's office, and that America's slow, tit-for-tat response to Iran may be hiding a real Patriot and […]

Every day we encounter the stimuli of our lives. Events and people. And we have feelings about most all of it. Some good, some bad, some fairly neutral, but we are processing everything through how we make meaning of things. Some of us have negative emotions about certain things that don't serve us. After 15 years as an elite cyclist I came to equate negative emotions to rain, as I associated rain with riding in it or riding indoors to stay out of it. I held this negative emotions for many years after I retired, for no real reason. From a habit of speeding and rolling stop signs I grew in myself, negative emotions toward cops who frequently pulled me over. Now, even when I'm obeying the traffic laws, I experience a negative emotion when I see a cop. These negative emotions, I created. And now I've retained even after the circumstances have changed. Analogies to question the emotions we hold from past experiences that may not be serving us today. My guest in this episode Dr. Julia DiGangi. Julia is a neuropsychologist who completed her residency at Harvard Medical School, Boston University School of Medicine, and the US Department of Veterans Affairs, and is the author of a book called Energy Rising: The Neuroscience of Leading with Emotional Power.

Are you counting yourself out before you even give yourself a real shot? A lot of people have big goals, real ambition, and a clear idea of what they want, but they never actually try because deep down, they don't believe they could be the person who pulls it off. They look at other people who have succeeded and assume those people had something they do not, when the real difference is often much simpler: they tried, they kept going, and they believed it was possible before anyone else did. When you start asking “Why not me?” instead of assuming success is reserved for someone else, everything changes. You stop putting other people on pedestals, you stop disqualifying yourself before the game even starts, and you start building the kind of confidence that only comes from taking action. In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I share why the “Why not me?” mindset has made me feel unstoppable and how changing the way you see yourself can change the way you show up in every area of your life. What's Discussed: (00:34) Why we underestimate ourselves and overestimate the people we put on pedestals. (01:16) How the “Why not me?” mindset can change the way you approach success. (01:50) The real difference between the people who succeed and the people who count themselves out. (02:02) Why self-belief still requires hard work, grit, and repeated attempts. (02:46) Why advocating for yourself can feel uncomfortable or egotistical. (04:29) Why people need to stop counting themselves out before they even try. (05:51) Why some people are not lazy, they simply do not believe they are capable. (06:10) The myth that you have to be “special” to achieve big things. (06:50) How believing you are capable can become the thing that makes you capable. (07:10) Why repeating the “Why not me?” mindset can rewire the way you see yourself. Thank You to Our Sponsors!
