I'm a bit nervous about this year's annual review. Could you share with me how you set your goals?"Zh: 美琳微微一笑，轻轻握了握莉华的手。En: Meilin smiled slightly, gently holding Lihua's hand.Zh: 她们在铺满细雪的椅子上坐下，眺望着熙熙攘攘的人群。En: They sat down on a snow-covered bench, gazing at the bustling crowd.Zh: 美琳开始讲述自己常常遇到的困难，“你知道吗，其实我也有过很多挫折。我也曾觉得过不去。”En: Meilin began to talk about the difficulties she often encountered, "You know, I've actually experienced many setbacks myself. I've also felt like I couldn't go on."Zh: 莉华惊讶地看着美琳，“真的吗？”En: Lihua looked at Meilin in surprise, "Really?"Zh: 美琳点点头。“没错。我们都有自己的压力。不过，我学会了坦然面对。重要的是我们一直在成长，无论多慢，都比停滞不前好。”En: Meilin nodded. "That's right. We all have our pressures. However, I've learned to face them calmly. What's important is that we are always growing. No matter how slow, it's better than standing still."Zh: 在这场对话中，莉华意识到，原来美琳也有过不为人知的挣扎。En: During this conversation, Lihua realized that Meilin also had her own struggles unknown to others.Zh: 她也曾经为了自己的目标而努力奋斗。En: She, too, had worked hard for her goals.Zh: 莉华觉得心里的负担被慢慢卸下，她突然感受到了一种新生的力量。En: Lihua felt the burden in her heart slowly lift, and suddenly, she sensed a newfound strength.Zh: 当她们离开外滩，夜幕已深，烟花在远方灿烂绽放。En: As they left the Bund, it was late in the evening, and fireworks blossomed brilliantly in the distance.Zh: 莉华深吸一口气，迎着寒冷的风，心中似乎充满了前所未有的信心。En: Lihua took a deep breath, facing the cold wind, and felt a newfound confidence within her.Zh: 她明白了，成功不只是达成目标，更是感受自己的成长和变化。En: She understood that success is not just about achieving goals but also about feeling her own growth and change.Zh: 每个人都有自己的旅程，每一步都是值得的。En: Everyone has their own journey, and every step is worthwhile.Zh: 走过这一年，展望新的一年，莉华带着新的视角，轻松地微笑着。En: After this year and looking forward to the new year, Lihua smiled with a new perspective.Zh: 这一次，莉华不仅仅期待年终评估的结果，她更期待着能在下一年里，继续追求自己的步调。En: This time, Lihua wasn't just anticipating the results of the annual review; she was looking forward to continuing her own pace in the coming year.Zh: 在这灯火通明的外滩，她感受到了一份宁静的满足。En: In this brightly lit Bund, she felt a peaceful satisfaction.

In Fishing Without Bait Episode 496 – *Clearing the Etch-A-Sketch: Letting Go of What Isn't Ours, we continue Part 3 of our conversation with returning guest and Clairvoyant *Santina Grace. This episode focuses on healing trauma without rewriting or reliving the past. Through grounding visualizations, breathwork, and recovery-based insights, Santina and the Fishing Without Bait team discuss how emotional experiences can be deconstructed so they no longer control our present moment. Using metaphors like clearing an Etch-A-Sketch or rooting into the earth through mindful breathing, the conversation highlights how releasing emotional energy that doesn't belong to us creates space for clarity, neutrality, and joy. We also explore recovery as a universal human process — because everyone is in recovery from something — and how honoring yourself begins with learning to listen.

In this episode, Shauna Lynn sits down with life and personal development coach Primavera Barron for a raw, honest look at why so many women feel stuck, burnt out, or disconnected from their current identity. Primavera shares her transformative journey from losing herself in a decade-long marriage to rebuilding her sense of self through neuro-linguistic programming and energy work, and how this sparked her mission to help other women stop abandoning themselves.Listeners will hear why procrastination, people-pleasing, and overwhelm are often symptoms of a deeper identity mismatch, and how simple but challenging questions can shift long-standing patterns. Primavera offers a fresh, science-backed perspective on changing the inner narrative, reframing limiting beliefs, and taking action that actually aligns with who you are today, not who you used to be.This episode invites listeners into the discomfort that leads to clarity, confidence, and meaningful change. Tune in for a conversation that may just help you see yourself in a new way, and share it with someone who needs the reminder that growth is always possible.Timestamps:(00:02) - (12:10): Shauna Lynn introduces Primavera Barron and sets the stage for a conversation about burnout, identity, and why so many women feel stuck in their own lives.(12:11) - (27:40): Primavera breaks down the disconnect between who women were when they started their business and who they are now, and how this outdated identity quietly fuels procrastination and overwhelm.(27:41) - (43:05): Hear Primavera's personal turning point after her divorce, the patterns she noticed in her massage clients, and what made her pursue neuro-linguistic programming as the missing piece.(43:06) - (57:50): A deep dive into NLP, shamanic energy work, and the surprising ways women self-sabotage through people-pleasing, avoidance, and emotional overidentification.(57:51) - (1:12:30): Primavera shares actionable ways listeners can question their internal narrative, interrupt limiting beliefs, and begin shifting into their true identity with courage and clarity.Resources:Book Your FREE Coaching Assessment Call with Shauna Lynn: https://www.aboutshaunalynn.com/coachmeLearn more about the show: AboutShaunaLynn.com/podcastEpisode #82, How to Turn Procrastination Into a Powerful Tool for Business Growth: https://www.aboutshaunalynn.com/rwrb-podcast-episodes/tools-for-business-growthPrimavera Barron:Learn more about Primavera: https://subscribepage.io/Primavera_Barron_CoachingFollow Primavera on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/primaverabarron/?hl=enGet your 2 free journal workbooks: https://stan.store/primaverabarronAbout Primavera Barron:Primavera Barron helps women who feel stuck, lost, or on the verge of burnout come back to themselves and rebuild a life that finally fits.

In this real, wide-ranging conversation, Christina and Brittany dive into the everyday topics that quietly shape our lives — health, hormones, money, mindset, and the pressure to “get it right,” especially during busy seasons.They kick things off with honest health updates, from sinus infections to wearable health tech, and share candid thoughts on tracking data versus trusting your body. From there, the conversation shifts into the stress of gift-giving, why it often feels so overwhelming, and why experiences almost always mean more than material things.The episode also touches on investing — stripping away the fear, complexity, and noise to focus on consistency, patience, and mindset — and how lessons from market shifts (like COVID) mirror the way we navigate life.Finally, Christina and Brittany open up about anxiety, especially as it relates to hormonal changes, food cravings, and the comfort found in nostalgia (yes, including the healing power of a grilled cheese).This episode is equal parts grounded, comforting, and perspective-shifting — a reminder that simplicity, trust, and presence often matter more than perfection.About Brittany and Christina:Meet Brittany and Christina, your dynamic podcast hosts who bring their unique blend of expertise, passion, and life experience to every conversation.Brittany, affectionately known as Britt, mom, mommy, bruh, and Queen, lives in Vancouver with her husband and their three fantastic kids (tweens and teens, hence the playful nicknames).

What if the version of success you built no longer fits, and the real path forward starts with five quiet minutes? That's where our conversation with Elizabeth begins. She's an engineer-turned-empowerment coach who helps people plug back into their power by aligning what they want with what they believe, feel, and do each day. We unpack the subtle signs of misalignment chronic unease, constant chasing, an inner no beneath an outer yes and why feeling clearer, not busier, is the truest performance metric.We dig into her simple framework: name a vivid vision, then empty the “backpack” of beliefs that fight it. Fear shows up for everyone, but it doesn't have to be the driver. Elizabeth walks through finding the root of a fear, reframing it with evidence and choice, and getting the subconscious on board so action feels lighter. For high-achievers and logical thinkers, we talk about balancing analysis with possibility, replacing the demand for 40 steps with the next wise step, and using small experiments to build proof and momentum.You'll hear practical tools you can start today: a five-minute daily quiet practice to sense your own energy and wants, questions that separate your voice from external noise, and ways to treat your past as a bridge rather than a prison. If you're staring at a comfortable life that doesn't feel like yours, this conversation offers a path back to clarity, courage, and forward motion. Listen, take one honest step, and tell us what comfort you're ready to release.Connect with Elizabeth PayneConnect with Coach Mikki Get your copy of Coach Mikki's new book - 4th and 1 Mindset Enjoyed the conversation?

True beauty lies in imperfection."Ja: これに勇気をもらった春斗は、練習に没頭しました。En: With this encouragement, Haruto immersed himself in practice.Ja: 彼はその日のために何度も何度もお茶を点てました。En: He made tea over and over for that day.Ja: とうとう、茶会の日がやってきました。En: Finally, the day of the tea gathering arrived.Ja: 竹林の中で、師匠や多くの観客が見守る中、春斗の手は緊張しながらも優雅に動きました。En: Amid the bamboo grove, under the watchful eyes of his master and many spectators, Haruto's hands moved gracefully, albeit with tension.Ja: しかし、ふと、小さな間違いに気づきました。En: Suddenly, he noticed a small mistake.Ja: 緊張とともに、心の中で静かに決心しました。En: Along with his tension, he quietly resolved in his heart.Ja: 春斗は少し微笑み、「お茶も竹と同じです。不完全でも美しいものです。」と一言言いました。En: Haruto smiled slightly and said, "Tea is like bamboo. Beautiful even in its imperfection."Ja: 観客は笑い出し、場が和みました。En: The spectators laughed, and the atmosphere eased.Ja: 春斗は落ち着いて間違いを正しました。En: Haruto calmly corrected his mistake.Ja: その瞬間、師匠からの認めるような目線を感じました。En: At that moment, he felt a recognizing gaze from his master.Ja: 春斗は悟りました。完璧さよりも大切なのは、そこにいる自分であること。En: Haruto realized that more important than perfection is being oneself in the moment.Ja: そして、真実の美は自然体でいることから生まれるのです。En: And true beauty emerges from being natural.Ja: 春斗はその後も茶道に専念し、竹林のように伸び続けました。En: After that, Haruto continued to devote himself to the tea ceremony, growing like the bamboo grove.Ja: 彼の中の不安は、いつしか静かな自信へと変わっていったのでした。En: The anxiety within him gradually transformed into a quiet confidence.

You're going to love today's episode — especially if you've been feeling that inner shift… the sense that you're not here to fix yourself anymore, you're here to live, to expand, to deepen, and to grow into who you already are. This conversation is for the seeker who's done the work. Who's healed, learned, stretched, rewritten chapters, faced shadows, and built a level of emotional strength most people never reach. And now… you're ready for something different. In today's episode we dive into: ✨ Why you're naturally outgrowing the constant hustle of self-improvement ✨ What it really means to evolve rather than “fix” ✨ How to start making decisions from your highest good (not fear, not old patterns) ✨ The signs your intuition is trying to graduate you ✨ What loving yourself looks like in this stage of your life ✨ Why aligned action matters more than overthinking, forcing, or grinding ✨ How to weave your light into your everyday life and let it guide your next chapter This episode will help you exhale. It will remind you that you're not behind — you're evolving. And the next phase of your life isn't about striving or pushing… it's about living your truth, trusting your inner guidance, and moving forward with everything you've learned, everything you've healed, and everything you are becoming. If you're feeling called into more ease, purpose, intuition, more purpose, and more alignment… this one is for you! Mentioned
In this episode, we dive into the wild, emotional, expensive, absolutely addictive world of concert culture.From fans who show up three nights in a row… to couples getting engaged in the aisle… to ticket prices that make your jaw drop — we break down what's really behind the obsession.We talk fan psychology, why live music feels like a spiritual awakening, and the way a single night in an arena can change your entire life. Plus: a behind-the-scenes look at the couple who became the star of the entire section — and how their love story unfolded mid-concert.If you're a live-music junkie, a Swiftie, a country-girl concert hopper, or someone who has ever said “I'll never financially recover from this”… this episode is for you.This episode explores the intense world of modern concert culture — from multi-night superfans to aisle engagements and the skyrocketing cost of tickets. Through real stories and personal reflections, we unpack why people will spend thousands for a two-hour show, how live music creates deep emotional connections, and why concerts have become the new version of “pilgrimage culture.”It's fun, wild, heartfelt, and a full look into the community, chaos, and magic of live shows.About Brittany and Christina:Meet Brittany and Christina, your dynamic podcast hosts who bring their unique blend of expertise, passion, and life experience to every conversation.Brittany, affectionately known as Britt, mom, mommy, bruh, and Queen, lives in Vancouver with her husband and their three fantastic kids (tweens and teens, hence the playful nicknames).

Jennifer speaks with Zen teacher Diane Musho Hamilton and facilitator Gabriel Kaigen Wilson about walking a spiritual path: not just waking up to our inherent belonging, but growing up into emotional maturity, flexibility, and courage.At the heart of the conversation is the tension many of us live inside—between enlightenment and the ego, urgency and presence, identity and oneness. Diane and Gabe offer practical, compassionate tools for navigating modern complexity without abandoning ourselves or each other.In this conversation, we explore:Why oneness isn't enough to navigate conflict: why we need both the spiritual path (waking up) and the developmental path (growing up).How identity can be both a safe home and a tight boundary: why flexibility is essential for compassion, clarity, and connection.How reflective listening calms the nervous system; and becomes a practical, transformative way to stay connected through difference and polarization.Come join us for a light hearted conversation on how to trust the grit and wisdom of our entangled, modern life.
