Do you ever feel like you're waiting for the perfect conditions before you take action? In this episode, I dive into the mental blocks that prevent us from moving forward. We often give our power away to external factors or other people's decisions, like sliding all our chips across the casino table and letting someone else bet on our behalf.   Mental blocks often show up disguised as facts. Our minds tell us we can't move forward until we have approval, more resources, or a change in circumstances. You'll learn how to spot these mental blocks and recognise when you're betting on others instead of yourself. I'll explain how making a small move, even when the full picture feels out of reach, can get you back in the game. We'll also explore how changing the language you use can help unlock new possibilities for action.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://maisiehill.com/245

There is nothing more frustrating than watching your athlete finally get a skill… only to lose it the very next day. One step forward, two steps back. Skills appear, then disappear, leaving athletes, parents, and coaches in a cycle of confusion and discouragement.In this week's episode of the PerformHappy Podcast, I'm diving into what I call “Yo-Yo Confidence” — that frustrating cycle of gaining and losing skills — and the hidden habits that actually make mental blocks worse.As a gymnast, I lived this cycle myself. I was the one crying on the beam, terrified of going backwards, desperate to “just go.” That is why I am passionate about giving hope to the athletes who feel stuck and to the parents and coaches who want to help them.Through years of coaching and mental performance training, I've identified eight common patterns that keep athletes trapped in their mental blocks. These patterns include everything from trying endless “tricks” to force yourself to go, to comparing yourself to fearless teammates, to refusing to take a step back when your brain clearly isn't ready.Here's the truth: forcing, criticizing, or rushing never builds lasting confidence. In fact, it does the opposite. Confidence grows when athletes learn to listen to their brain, take smart steps back, and celebrate progress, no matter how small.If your athlete is losing skills as quickly as they gain them, this episode will help you break the cycle. Together, we'll reframe mental blocks as information — not failure — and show you how to create an environment where consistency and confidence can take root.In this episode, Coach Rebecca talks about:The eight hidden habits that keep athletes stuck in mental blocksWhy forcing yourself to “just go” backfiresThe danger of expecting to start where you left off yesterdayWhy celebrating small wins is the key to lasting confidence“The worst thing you can do for a mental block is force it. The fastest way through is listening to your brain, starting where you are, and building trust one step at a time.” – Rebecca SmithLearn exactly what to say and do to guide your athlete through a mental block with my new book "Parenting Through Mental Blocks" Order your copy today: https://a.co/d/g990BurFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/complete_performance/ Join my FaceBook page: https://www.facebook.com/completeperformancecoaching/ Check out my website: https://completeperformancecoaching.com/Write to me!

Simon discusses overcoming mental blocks that hinder success in property investment, stressing the importance of taking action and addressing fears related to funding and self-worth. He highlights common issues such as imposter syndrome and the fear of judgment, encouraging listeners to share their journeys on social media and engage with local property investor networks KEY TAKEAWAYS Many investors face mental barriers that prevent them from taking action, often rooted in fear or self-doubt. Recognizing and addressing these blocks is crucial for progress. It's important to make offers on every property viewed, regardless of current funding. This practice helps build confidence and negotiation skills, even if the offers are initially rejected. Investors should evaluate the potential costs of accessing equity in their properties against the opportunity costs of not pursuing deals. This analysis can reveal profitable opportunities that may otherwise be overlooked. Engaging with local property investor networks and sharing your journey on social media can help build connections and attract potential investors. Overcoming the fear of judgment is essential for growth. BEST MOMENTS "I feel a bit of a fraud... I don't want to use other people's money." "If I take it out, I've got to pay redemption... I'm tied into mortgages." "What other people think of you is none of your business." "You need to say, OK, what does the price need to be in order for this to meet my criteria?"

Overcoming call reluctance starts with understanding why even seasoned sales pros freeze up when it's time to pick up the phone. They're paralyzed by one simple fear: interrupting a prospect's day. That's exactly what Kurt Roberts from Richmond, Virginia, brought to the table. Kurt's problem wasn't about not knowing what to say or how to pitch—it was the mental block around the very idea of interruption. He hated being interrupted by low-quality sales calls himself. And even though 99% of the time prospects were receptive to his message, he couldn't shake the feeling that he was being pushy just by dialing the phone. Kurt's got the skills. He knows what to say. His prospects love him once they're talking. But every time he reaches for the phone, his stomach knots up. Sound familiar? If you've ever stared at your phone, finger hovering over the dial button, worried about being "that pushy salesperson," you're not alone. The Projection Trap: Why Your Empathy Is Working Against You Kurt's challenge is rooted in something I call projection—deciding for your customer how they'll feel before you've even spoken to them. If you have a high level of empathy (and many great salespeople do), you naturally put yourself in the other person's shoes. You think: "I wouldn't want to be interrupted, so they won't either." Here's the brutal truth: That empathy is killing your pipeline. Because you don't actually know if your call will be an annoyance or the best thing to happen to them today. I've bought plenty of products from salespeople who "interrupted" me, because their timing and message were right. That wouldn't have happened if they'd let their fear of bothering me keep them from picking up the phone. The One Thing That Makes Interruption Welcome Nobody likes to be interrupted. But if you are going to interrupt, make it worth their time. Think about it: Would you rather get a cold call from someone who clearly knows nothing about you, or from someone who's done their homework and has a relevant, valuable reason for reaching out? There are two ways to make your outreach relevant: 1. Personalized Messaging for High-Value Prospects Do your research on the specific individual. Learn about their company, role, and current challenges. Use that to craft a tailored message that connects your solution directly to their world. This is essential for high-value, niche, or executive-level prospects. 2. Targeted Messaging for Scaled Outreach Build messaging that resonates with a clearly defined group—people who share the same role, industry, geography, or problem set. It's not as specific as personalized outreach, but it's still relevant to most people in your target list. Test it. If your calls fall flat, adjust the message until it clicks. Stop Confusing Prep Work with Prospecting Here's where most salespeople sabotage themselves: They spend their "prospecting time" researching LinkedIn profiles and crafting the perfect email instead of actually dialing. Let me be clear: Research is not prospecting. Building messaging is not prospecting. Prospecting is picking up the phone and interrupting people. Everything else is prep work. Block separate time for building your targeted or personalized messaging. Then protect your prospecting time like your mortgage payment depends on it—because it does. From Pushy to Helpful: Reframing Interruption Kurt's empathy makes him a sales rockstar once he's in conversation. But he was letting his concern for prospects' feelings rob them of the chance to work with him. That's not empathy—that's selfish. The shift is simple but not easy: You're not interrupting to take from them, you're interrupting to help them. You've earned the right to interrupt because you've done the work to make your outreach relevant. Missing a chance to help them because you didn't call? That's the real loss. 5-Step Action Plan to Crush Call Reluctance If you're struggling like Kurt,

Today, Dr. Noah St. John is here to challenge everything you thought you knew about why some people thrive and others get stuck. If you want to level up your success in any area of your life, the first thing you must do is to change your mindset. Dr. Noah is going to show you how to conquer the "head trash" that holds us back, break through income plateaus, and unlock results.Meet Dr. Noah St. JohnDr. Noah has been teaching clients for 30 years and is credited with helping them add a collective $3 billion in revenue. He is known as the "Done with Head Trash" guy and is a leader of the movement to help people get past their self-imposed limitations. He has written 25 books on the subject and has helped individuals and organizations ranging from 100 to 10,000.Inner Game vs. Outer Game: The 80% RuleDr. Noah argues that success is at least 80% about your "inner game". The inner game is everything happening in your mind, including the beliefs and stories you tell yourself. While "outer game" activities like making calls and sending emails are important, Dr. Noah emphasizes that mindset is the true bottleneck for most people.Clearing Out the "Head Trash"Dr. Noah defines "head trash" as the internal voice that says, "I can't because...". This self-limiting dialogue is what prevents sales professionals and entrepreneurs from reaching their full potential. He explains that by identifying and clearing this mental clutter, you can stop proving your own limitations right.From $4 Million to $20 Million: A Real-Life ExampleDr. Noah shares a powerful case study about a client whose company was stuck at $4 million in revenue for four years. After hiring Dr. Noah, they focused on the inner game, and in less than 18 months, the company's revenue skyrocketed to over $20 million. This success was a direct result of addressing the team's mindset, not just their outer game tactics.Practical Steps to Break FreeWant to get off the "hamster wheel"? Dr. Noah gives steps to take right away.Get Clear on Your Goals: You must be specific about what you want to achieve, whether it's more money or a better relationship.Identify Your Limitations: Pinpoint the reasons you think you can't reach your goals, like not having enough time, money, or confidence.Take Action (Even Without Confidence): The myth that confidence comes first is dismantled here. Dr. Noah stresses that you build confidence by taking action, even if you don't feel ready.Advice for Sales LeadersFor those who lead teams, Dr. Noah suggests bringing in outside help to create a mindset shift. He offers resources, including his online course, and invites leaders to book him to train their teams. By focusing on mindset training and goal-setting exercises, leaders can unlock next-level results and help their teams become unstoppable.“If you take action even if you don't believe, confidence will come. Most people wait for confidence, but it's action that really unlocks it.” - Dr. Noah St. John.ResourcesDone With Head Trash Course: donewithheadtrash.com — Dr. Noah's self-paced program to transform limiting beliefs.Main Website for Programs/Resources: noahstjohn.com — Books, courses, and tools for entrepreneurs and sales professionals.To Book Dr. Noah for Speaking/Training:

Are you struggling to break through your income ceiling despite working hard and attending countless seminars? In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Dr. Noah St. John, known worldwide as the "Father of Afformations" ( with an “o”—to distinguish his approach from traditional affirmations). He found that classic affirmations like “I am confident” or “I am wealthy” often triggered resistance in the subconscious mind. If you don't believe the statement, your brain basically replies, “Yeah, right.” So instead, he developed Afformations, which are empowering questions that assume the positive outcome is already true. For example:This subtle shift turns your brain into a kind of internal search engine, prompting it to look for reasons the statement could be true. He believes this method bypasses internal resistance and rewires limiting beliefs more effectively.So no—he doesn't call them affirmations. He calls them Afformations, and he sees them as a breakthrough in personal development. Want to try crafting a few together? I'd be happy to help.and mental health coach to high-profile clients. Noah shares his remarkable journey from contemplating suicide to becoming a sought-after expert on personal development and financial success.Key Takeaways:Unlocking Your Seven-Figure Potential Noah introduces his latest book, "The Seven Figure Expert," and explains how it can guide you to a life of greater impact, influence, and financial freedom.

Mental blocks are self-imposed barriers that entrepreneur and psychology expert Dr. Travis Fox reveals through his revolutionary Mystic Persona System in this Play Big Faster episode. Breaking through mental barriers requires understanding the 102 personas operating within your subconscious mind that create limiting beliefs and self sabotage patterns keeping you stuck. Dr. Fox, creator of the Dual Path Dynamics methodology, exposes how overcoming mental blocks starts with recognizing we're all "imposters" running around pretending we have our lives figured out. From his 30+ years helping entrepreneurs overcome limiting beliefs, he shares why most coaches burn out in 36 months and how removing mental blocks that keep you stuck requires integrating your shadow personas rather than avoiding them. Key insights include: How to get over mental blocks by identifying which persona is creating resistance  Why personal development without persona integration leads to self sabotaging behaviors  Releasing emotional blocks through presence rather than distraction  Mental clarity techniques for entrepreneurs juggling multiple roles  Stop inner conflict by understanding your internal dialogue patterns  Cleanse self doubt by owning your sovereign decision-making power This episode is perfect for entrepreneurs struggling with mental blockages around scaling, solopreneurs battling self doubt, and business owners ready to achieve your goals by addressing the psychological barriers beneath surface-level strategies. Dr. Fox's unconventional approach combines behavioral health insights with spiritual psychology, offering practical tools for releasing resistance and shifting your identity from victim to architect of your experience. Whether you're experiencing fear of trying new things in business or seeking mental toughness for breakthrough performance, this conversation provides a refreshingly honest perspective on personal empowerment that goes beyond positive thinking platitudes to create lasting transformation.

BIRTH ORDER THEORY, POVERTY AND MENTAL BLOCKS TO HIGHER EDUCATION From a macrocosm perspective, Alfred Adler's birth order theory helps explain how individual behavior patterns, shaped by early family dynamics, can scale up to influence educational outcomes, career paths, and societal choices. Here's how it connects:“Birth Order, Poverty, and the Mental Block to Thriving”An Educational and Psychological PerspectiveAlfred Adler's birth order theory posits that an individual's position in the family shapes core aspects of their personality and worldview. But when you introduce the systemic stressors of poverty, these birth order traits can become internalized barriers to growth—particularly in pursuing higher education and imagining a life beyond survival.​ Birth Order + Poverty = Role Entrapment​ In poor families, firstborns often become surrogate parents. They carry emotional and financial burdens prematurely.​ Impact: Sacrificing personal dreams for familial duty creates guilt and fear around pursuing education.​ Middle children may feel lost or overlooked.​ Impact: Internalized beliefs that they're not “special” enough to matter in society or in the classroom.​ Youngest children may be “babied” longer, which can create dependency or avoidance of responsibility.​ Impact: Higher risk of underdeveloped self-discipline or ambition in academic settings.These roles aren't neutral—they're survival strategies. And survival isn't the same as thriving.​ Mental Health Implications​ Chronic stress, responsibility, and neglect affect brain development and emotional regulation.​ Children internalize a fixed identity: “I'm just not college material.”​ Educational ambition is seen as selfish or unrealistic: “Who do you think you are?”This creates a cognitive distortion: poverty becomes not just a condition—but a state of mind.​ The Systemic Lock-InSchools and society often reinforce these scripts:​ They reward obedience over creativity (benefiting firstborn-like behavior).​ They fail to identify trauma-related underperformance as a mental health issue, not a character flaw.​ They don't account for how family survival roles (provider, peacekeeper, clown, etc.) conflict with being a full-time student.​ Reframing and Breaking the CycleTo thrive, children in poverty must be helped to:​ Recognize their assigned roles and question them.​ Receive mental health support that validates the survival mode they've been trapped in.​ Reimagine education as liberation, not betrayal of family loyalty.⸻Final Thought:Being poor is not just an economic state. It's a psychological script, often reinforced by birth order roles, that says: “You don't get to dream.”To overcome it, we need to address not just the resources people lack, but the roles they were forced to play too early, and the internal stories they were never allowed to rewrite.This is how poverty becomes a mental health barrier—and why any path to higher education for poor students must be as much about healing as it is about learning.#BMHR

Dr. Wood explains how trauma—both major and minor emotional concussions—creates inflammation, disrupts the nervous system, and holds people back from reaching their true potential. He shares groundbreaking insights on how rewiring the brain can help business owners, athletes, and high performers break through self-imposed limitations. Using real-life case studies, including professional athletes and entrepreneurs, Dr. Wood demonstrates how his methods have led to record-breaking performances and financial success. Top 5 Key Points Discussed:The Hidden Impact of Trauma on PerformanceTrauma, even in subtle forms like childhood criticism or self-doubt, keeps the brain in a fight-or-flight state. This unresolved stress affects decision-making, business success, and physical health.Brainwave Optimization for High PerformanceDr. Wood explains the four brainwave states—Beta (high stress), Alpha (relaxed focus), Theta (processing state), and Delta (deep recovery). Rewiring the brain to operate in Alpha can unlock peak performance in business and athletics.The Mind-Body Connection in Business and FitnessMany gym owners and personal trainers unknowingly mask their own trauma through physical training. Dr. Wood emphasizes how trauma resolution can lead to better business decisions, improved client results, and personal breakthroughs.Real-Life Transformations Through Trauma WorkStories include a marathon runner breaking world records post-treatment, a high-level banker overcoming financial self-sabotage, and Dr. Wood's own daughter eliminating autoimmune diseases after addressing childhood trauma.Breaking Limiting Beliefs to Unlock the Next Level of SuccessEntrepreneurs often hit ceilings due to deep-seated fears and limiting beliefs from past experiences.

In this motivating Monday episode, Scott Smith tackles the challenge of feeling stuck and shares his world's simplest success recipe: stand up, take a step, and repeat. He introduces three powerful mindset questions that can transform your approach to achieving goals, regardless of where you are in life right now. Scott emphasizes that massive and perfect action is the universal solution to any situation, whether your life is going well, poorly, or somewhere in between. With his signature blend of wisdom and humor, he delivers a straightforward framework for breaking through inaction and propelling yourself toward what you truly want. This episode isn't about complex strategies—it's about the simple mindset shifts that create immediate momentum and lead to real results. Perfect for anyone who occasionally finds themselves procrastinating on what matters most. Featured Story: Scott shares how he ate succotash (lima beans and corn) for the first time in his life just to impress the woman who would later become his wife, despite never having eaten vegetables before. This lighthearted anecdote illustrates his point that finding a compelling reason to take action—even uncomfortable action—is often the key to achieving what you want. Key Takeaways: The world's simplest success recipe is: stand up (get into action mode), take a step (move toward what you want), and repeat until you get what you want. Ask yourself three powerful questions to shift your mindset: What CAN you do today? What SHOULD you do today? What MUST you do today? Often, the actions we "must" take are precisely the ones we're avoiding, yet they're the most important for our progress. If you don't know your purpose yet, your purpose is to find your purpose—clarity is the essential first step. Taking action, even when you don't feel like it, is the solution to feeling stuck. Being in a community of like-minded people with a roadmap can accelerate your progress. Memorable Quotes: "Everything is fixed by what we call massive and perfect action." - Scott Smith "If you don't know your purpose, your purpose is to find your purpose." - Scott Smith "Will you do what you know you need to do to get what you know you want?" - Scott Smith Scott's Three-Step Approach: Identify What You CAN Do - Look for one thing today that will move you closer to something you want, and commit to doing it to build momentum. Determine What You SHOULD Do - Move beyond the easy options and honestly assess what actions would most effectively advance your goals. Face What You MUST Do - Acknowledge the necessary actions you've been avoiding, recognizing that these are often the exact steps required for meaningful progress.

In this episode, we're going to talk about five powerful antidotes that can help you navigate mental blocks and entrepreneurial challenges as a food blogger. I recently heard someone use the word antidote to describe how they dealt with mental blocks as an entrepreneur, and it stuck with me. I love the idea that there's a remedy—a way to counteract the “poison” of things like overwhelm, self-doubt, and confusion that can suck the life out of us as business owners. In this episode, I'm diving into five powerful antidotes that can help you break free from those struggles that feel impossible to escape. You don't have to stay stuck. If you can identify the “poison” and apply the right antidote, you can move forward with clarity and purpose. Let's talk about how to do just that. Action Plan: 1 -Physical movement is the antidote for rumination. 2 - Air, water, and words is the antidote for confusion. 3 - Gratitude for people is the antidote for feeling underappreciated, undervalued, and unworthy. 4 - Doing one thing is the antidote for a lack of motivation. 5 - Setting boundaries is the antidote for overwhelm.

Sometimes, it's a conscious choice; an injury, a change in circumstances, or a loss of confidence for example. Other times, life simply gets in the way. But whatever the reason, it doesn't have to define your riding journey going forward. You're maybe like many other riders, the reason that you've stopped was just a season of life—a temporary chapter, not the whole story. And yet, it's easy to take that reason and make it mean something about who you are. You, intentionally or not, weave it into your entire identity, convincing yourself that you're no longer a “real rider.” But here's the truth: “The reason you stopped riding is just that—a reason, not a definition. It's a chapter that's now ending - not the whole story!  Getting back in the saddle can feel uncomfortable, even when you want it more than anything. And I'm not just talking about physical discomfort. Often the mental challenges are even more real. This can be because your mind has grown used to its old story.

About Ryan SoaveRyan Soave is a healthcare executive, therapist, coach, and speaker with over 14 years of experience in mental health consulting and counseling. Ryan has dedicated his career to guiding individuals navigating personal and professional challenges. His work spans one-on-one coaching, leadership consulting, and trauma-informed therapy, helping people unlock deeper self-awareness and achieve their best work.In this episode, Ryan discusses his experiences with therapy and coaching, offering a practical framework for overcoming creative blocks, facing discomfort, and making progress in both work and life. He shares insights on how unconscious patterns shape decision-making, why emotional resilience is key to success, and how becoming more self-aware can transform personal and professional growth. Whether you're a designer, entrepreneur, or simply someone striving for a more fulfilling life, Ryan's wisdom provides invaluable tools to help you move forward.Ah-ha! Justin's Takeaways* Embracing Discomfort as a Path to Growth: Ryan shared a game-changing perspective: the ability to sit with discomfort is what separates those who grow from those who stay stuck. We often try to avoid tough emotions, seeking distractions instead of facing what really needs to be addressed. Whether in creativity, business, or personal development, pushing through discomfort is what leads to breakthroughs. This hit home for me—some of my biggest successes, both in game design and entrepreneurship, only happened because I was willing to step into uncertainty rather than run from it.* The Power of Clear Goals and Intentions: One of the most eye-opening moments in our conversation was Ryan's emphasis on setting specific, actionable goals. He pointed out that broad ambitions like “I want to be happy” or “I want to be successful” are too vague to be useful. Just like in game design, where clear objectives improve player experience, defining concrete aims in life helps eliminate frustration and keeps you on track. The clearer the target, the more likely you are to hit it.* Your Past Does Not Define Your Future: Ryan reframed trauma in a way that stuck with me—not just as major life events but as unconscious habits and strategies we develop that may no longer serve us. How often do we cling to outdated mindsets simply because they once worked? Whether in creativity, leadership, or personal relationships, we all have automatic responses shaped by our past. The key is recognizing when those responses are holding us back and having the courage to rewrite the script.Show Notes“We're helping people be able to lean into discomfort.” (00:07:01)Ryan explains that therapy isn't about making people feel good all the time—it's about teaching them how to handle discomfort in a productive way. Too often, people avoid difficult emotions, which only reinforces their fears and anxieties. By embracing discomfort instead of running from it, we create the opportunity for growth. This lesson applies directly to game design, where pushing through creative blocks, iterating on ideas, and facing criticism during playtests (and after the game's release) are all inevitable parts of the process.“You're not lazy. You just think you're the ultimate authority of how your time should be spent.” (00:28:15)Ryan shares a bit of wisdom from a mentor who changed his view on productivity: procrastination isn't laziness—it's allowing emotions to dictate actions instead of committing to long-term goals. In game design, discipline and clear objectives are essential for overcoming creative blocks and finishing projects. The magic trick? Set deadlines. Small, achievable deadlines keep you focused, help to build momentum, and push you forward.“In the moments of the biggest discomfort, I'm not going to remember why I'm doing it. I'm just going to want to walk away.” (00:46:32)Ryan describes the importance of keeping your core purpose front and center. People often lose momentum in business, relationships, or creative pursuits by focusing on immediate struggles instead of the bigger picture. Having clear, daily reminders of your “why” helps push through challenges and stay on track. A microcosm of this in game design is the core mechanic—staying focused on it ensures a cohesive experience and guides every design decision. In my episode with Steven Pressfield, we explore similar strategies for managing this discomfort, which he calls Resistance. Check it out here:“You're not seeing the world as it is—you're seeing it through the lens of your history.” (01:02:48)Ryan explains how past experiences can unconsciously shape how we interpret new situations.

Everybody says we have to get out of our comfort zone in order to be successful and its true, except for the fact that our brain and body has the job to keep us inside our comfort zone. 2. Most entrepreneurs carry both , the fear of failure and the fear of success that keeps us trapped in a really tight space. Most often, the fear of success is rooted in the fear of failure. 3.

Why does rejection sting so deeply? Darren Hardy explores the primal roots of this fear and how it influences modern behavior. Discover the hidden habits that might be holding you back—and how to break free from them!

We will learn:·      Why fighting against your mental blocks actually makes them stronger, and what to do instead·      The surprising way your body holds the key to accessing and transforming subconscious programming·      How to use the principle of polarity to turn your biggest blocks into your greatest strengthsHave you ever noticed that the harder you work on yourself, the more resistive your inner blocks become? Like trying to catch smoke with your hands - the tighter you grasp, the more it slips through your fingers.I've been there. A few years ago, I was deep in what I now call my "transformation addiction" phase. Picture this: I'd wake up at 5 AM, meditate for an hour, journal three pages, recite affirmations in the mirror, take a cold shower, and that was all before my actual morning routine even started. I had reminders on my phone to check in with my mood, apps to track my habits, and a stack of self-help books by my bed that was slowly turning into a safety hazard. What if the key to real transformation isn't in adding more techniques to our toolbox, but in fundamentally changing how we approach the whole process of change itself? What if the very resistance we feel towards our blocks holds the secret to dissolving them? And what if - stay with me here - all those blocks you've been fighting aren't actually the enemy?Today's conversation blew my mind, and I have a feeling it might shift something for you too. Our guest is Brandon Epstein, a mindset coach who experienced his own profound awakening through what he calls an "ego death." After this experience revealed the deep programming holding him back, he developed a unique approach to transformation that works with our resistance rather than against it. Links from the episode: Show Notes: mindlove.com/379 Join the wait list for Living Mind Love Become a Mind Love Member for high-value Masterclasses, Growth Workbooks, Monthly Meditations, and Uninterrupted Listening FREE 5-Days to Purpose Email Course Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes to wake up inspired Support Mind Love Sponsors Learn more about your ad choices.
