They also perform with the end in mind.Here's how:- Visualize yourself as the confident, worthy, successful version of you.- Identify the “gap” between that version and where you are now.- Take intentional action to bridge it.When you honor the discomfort and reverse-engineer the path forward, imposter syndrome becomes clarity, courage, and yes—even confidence.I'd love to hear your perspective. Who's the future version of you that already owns the room? If you imagined yourself already there, what one shift would help close the gap?

When I was stuck in porn addiction, I kept hearing the same advice: “Just be more positive. Believe in yourself. Visualize your freedom.” But here's the problem—positive thinking alone doesn't heal porn addiction. In fact, it often makes things worse.In this episode, I dive deep into the psychology, neuroscience, and spirituality of why forcing yourself to “just think positive” can actually increase shame, suppress your real emotions, and fuel relapse. We'll talk about the trap of toxic positivity, the failure of the “law of attraction” in recovery, and why pretending to be fine when you're hurting only keeps you stuck in the cycle of cravings.Instead, I'll show you a mindset shift that actually works: facing your pain head-on, learning to process negative thoughts and emotions honestly, and using practical tools to rewire your brain for long-term recovery. You'll discover why the real solution isn't blind positivity—it's courageous presence.We'll cover:The psychology of toxic positivity and why suppressing pain drives porn useThe neuroscience of stress, dopamine, and why fake positivity backfiresThe spiritual truth that freedom comes not from escaping pain, but transforming itA simple recovery exercise to ground yourself in reality and break free from cravingsIf you've ever felt frustrated that positive thinking isn't working—or worse, that it's made you feel more ashamed—this episode will help you see the path forward with clarity and hope.Porn recovery isn't about “positive vibes only.” It's about building the strength to face reality with courage and rewire your mind for freedom.Blog Article for this EpisodeFree ResourcesGrab my Free eBook and Free Workshop for more strategies to overcome porn addiction, rewire your brain, and rebuild your life.Recommended Episodes: How Negative Thinking Fuels Porn AddictionThe Subtle Lies that Keep You RelapsingAddiction, Identity, and the Illusion of Brokenness (with Jason Shiers)Fit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showNo More Desire
Is your athlete gearing up for tryouts… and you're secretly more stressed than she is?You're not alone. Tryout week can bring all the nerves, for athletes and their moms. But how do you actually support her without adding pressure, overstepping, or spiraling right alongside her?In this episode, we're breaking down exactly how to prepare your athlete (and yourself) for tryouts – mentally, emotionally, and practically.Here's what this episode covers: What parents need to check in on before tryouts even start.How to shift the focus from “making the team” to “showing up strong”.A coach's honest perspective on what actually stands out at tryouts.Simple ways to help your athlete prep without hovering.What to say (and what not to say) during the tryout season.How to boost her confidence outside of her sport.Key mental skills athletes need to handle nerves, bounce back from mistakes, and perform under pressure.What to do if she doesn't make the team and how to turn disappointment into growth.Tryouts don't have to break her or you. Listen in and get the tools to show up steady, supportive, and strong... no matter the outcome.Episode Highlights: [00:00:00] Tryout Season = High Stress. Tryouts bring a wave of stress for athletes, coaches, and especially parents. It's completely normal to feel anxious, but there are ways to handle it well.[00:01:47] Start with the Parent. Before helping an athlete, parents should check in with themselves. Acknowledging personal stress and avoiding projection helps create a calmer environment.[00:03:00] Focus on Her Goals. Instead of assuming what she wants, ask the athlete what her goals are for tryouts. Shifting the focus to effort and pride helps relieve outcome pressure.[00:05:03] When the Goal Feels Out of Reach. If the athlete sets a big goal, parents can gently steer the conversation toward effort and backup plans, without crushing her confidence.[00:06:49] Watch the Words. Phrases like “You better make the team” only add pressure. Encouragement should stay focused on effort, attitude, and what's in her control.[00:07:41] Mental Game is the Real Game. Tryouts are mentally demanding. Without tools to manage nerves and recover from mistakes, even skilled athletes can struggle.[00:08:43] Visualize the Outcome. Positive visualization, seeing success before it happens, helps athletes shift from anxious anticipation to confident execution.[00:09:00] Anchor in Affirmations. Simple self-talk like “I'm ready” or “I belong here” gives athletes something to lean on in high-pressure moments.[00:10:23] Reset Fast With a Snapback Routine. A go-to reset routine helps athletes move on from mistakes quickly, one of the most valuable tools in competitive sports.[00:12:28] Real Success is in Adaptability. The biggest win from tryouts? Learning to adapt, stay grounded, and keep going no matter what the outcome says.Next Steps:Join our FREE Training for Sports Moms - How to Strengthen Your Athlete Daughter's Mental Game so She Believes in Herself as Much as You DoVisit our podcast website for more great episodesThank you in advance for joining us on our mission and leaving a rating and review on Apple Podcasts.Register here for the Summer Confidence Series to grab the free PDF with scripts, strategies, and a recap of the episodes all in one place!

1. Introduction and Context * Purpose of the Podcast/Discussion * Association with "Superhuman Selling" and Elyse Archer * Speaker's (Brandon Handley's) role: Running a men's mastermind * Current theme: "Grounding the Leap" 2. Understanding the "Leap" and its Challenges * Definition of the "leap": A breakthrough, a new baseline, a significant shift. * The problem: Leaps can fade into memory without grounding. * The goal: Locking in the leap, stabilizing the "new you" to become the new baseline. * Breakthroughs are exciting but initially unstable. * The nervous system, mind, and body need time to adapt to the new state. 3. The "Being" vs. "Doing" Paradigm for Grounding * Common misconception: Securing a leap through more efforting, habits, and hustling. * The speaker's past experience: Stuck in the "doing more" mindset. * The key principle: 95-98% of locking a leap is "being," only 2-5% is "doing." * The importance of understanding what it means to "live in this new state." 4. The Union of Heart and Mind (Kokoro) * An ancient principle from other cultures. * Concept introduced: Union of heart and mind. * Historical influences: Alan Watts and the concept of "mushin." * The Japanese term: "Kokoro" (written with the character for heart). * Definition of Kokoro: The union of heart and mind, working as one, not in competition. * Western civilization's separation of heart and mind: * The head as the CEO. * The heart ignored or relegated to a passive role. * Consequences: Leaps don't stick, trying to live breakthroughs in the mind while ignoring the body and emotions. 5. Scientific Basis for Heart-Mind Connection * The heart's intelligence: Not just a blood pump. * Heart's neural network: Approximately 40,000 neurons. * Information flow: Heart sends more information to the brain than vice-versa. * Pre-cognitive reactions: The heart reacts milliseconds before conscious thought. * Research backing: Harvard, University of California, and others. * Implication: The body "feels" the terrain before the brain maps it. * Ignoring the heart/intuition leads to reverting to the old baseline. * Tuning into the heart and mind together makes the new terrain familiar. 6. Alignment and States of Being * The principle of "alignment first, action second." * Transition from "contraction" to "expansion." * Defining "contraction": * Physical sensations: Chest caving in, shallow breath, racing mind, heaviness. * Psychological association: The old baseline, fear of the unknown. * Defining "expansion": * Physical sensations: Open chest, deep diaphragm breathing, relaxed shoulders, clear mind. * Psychological association: The new terrain, confidence in the new identity. * Leading with expansion allows "doing" to flow naturally. 7. Practical Exercise: Locking in the Leap * Purpose: To ground the leap in the present moment. * Step 1: Identify Contraction. * Think of things put off since the leap. * Feel bodily sensations of tightening (contraction). * Recognize this as the "old you" trying to keep you "safe." * Step 2: Imagine Expansion. * Visualize the desired outcome of the task being done. * Notice bodily sensations of opening and softening (expansion). * Recognize this as the leap being grounded. * Step 3: Future Action Protocol. * Do not act from contraction. * Pause, find expansion. * Then, move forward. 8. Reinforcing and Stabilizing the Leap * Keeping the leap "unshakable." * Training the mind to spot evidence of the leap. * Recognizing new responses vs. reactions. * "Proving the leap in real time" (Price Pritchett's concept). * Looking for proof while living it, not waiting for external validation. * Past leaps may have been unrecognized. * Opportunities appearing in unexpected ways ("ways that you know not of," referencing biblical phrasing). * "Trusting the unknown" (Price Pritchett's concept). * Recording and acknowledging this evidence in real time. 9. Anchoring the New Frequency (Heart-Mind Lock-In) * A guided breathing exercise. * Technique: Slow, easy breaths through the nose, belly expansion, shoulder softening. * Focus: Calling up the feeling of already living the leap and expansion. * Anchoring the feeling through bodily checks (shoulders, neck). * Establishing the new "home frequency" as living from expansion. 10. Making Choices for Stability * Every choice either stabilizes the leap or slides back to the baseline. * Key check-ins: * Feeling state: Contraction or expansion? * Heart and mind connection: Working together or split? * The power of choice: Choosing expansion, choosing Kokoro, choosing to live in the new state. 11. Invitation to Further Support and Community * Offering help with grounding leaps, experiencing leaps, and identifying leaps. * Mention of the "Superhuman Selling" mastermind. * Format: Bi-weekly, within groups and communities. * Benefits: Support from others and the opportunity to support them. * Concept: "A whole rising tide lifts all ships." * Call to action: Reach out and check it out. * Ultimate goal: Making leaps "sticky" and establishing them as the new baseline/reality.

900 Episodes of Transformative Leadership In this special 900th episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I take a moment to reflect with deep gratitude. Hosting nearly a thousand conversations with thought leaders, change-makers, and everyday champions has been a true honor. Each episode is rooted in one mission: Helping you lead a better life by navigating workplace stress, avoiding burnout, and stepping into the leader you were born to be. I also shared a bit of my own growth journey, including how I've intentionally reduced screen time to reclaim focus and calm. It's a reminder that real transformation often comes from the small, intentional changes we make daily. I invite you to ask yourself: What does your ideal life look like? And more importantly, What's one step you can take today to move closer to it? Navigating Change with Purpose Change is inevitable—but how we respond is where our power lies. In this episode, I challenge listeners to stop waiting for the "right time" and start leading their own life transitions. Grab a journal and write it out: your goals, your challenges, and the specific actions required to create meaningful change in your career or life. Motivation can be fleeting, but discipline? That's where the magic happens. Whether you're switching careers, developing a new skill set, or simply craving more balance, clarity begins when you commit to action. Visualize the outcome, get honest about the work required, and give yourself permission to evolve.

The Space Above the Head - Locus 0 (Chimes Edition)Our premise remains the same:Numeral: 0Sounds: S, Z, and soft CLocus: The space just above the crown of the headImagine the space directly above your head is not empty, but filled with a delicate, ethereal array of wind chimes. They are made of polished, hollow silver rods that glint in an unseen light. They hang from invisible strings, suspended in a perfect, silent arrangement.Swoosh: A gentle, otherworldly swoosh of wind blows through the chimes, causing them to sway and collide. Instead of a loud clang, they create a beautiful, sustained, bell-like tone that echoes in the space above. This sound adds a sensory layer and an "S" sound to our scene.Celestial: The chimes are not ordinary; they are celestial chimes. Each one is etched with tiny constellations and stellar maps, and as they move, the etched patterns glow with a soft, cosmic light. The word "celestial" powerfully reinforces the soft C sound.Zigzag: As the wind passes through, the chimes don't just move side to side. They move in a deliberate, chaotic zigzag pattern, weaving in and out of each other without ever tangling. This adds a sense of unpredictable motion and an excellent "Z" sound.Zodiac: At the center of the zigzagging chimes, there is a giant, silver, circular frame. It's an intricate zodiac chart, and the chimes are arranged to represent the different star signs. The word "zodiac" provides a strong "Z" sound and gives the whole scene a meaningful structure.Sash: The entire structure of the chimes and the zodiac is held together by a thin, shimmering sash of starlight that is tied in a knot just above your head. The sash gently pulls the chimes, creating the motion and the music. The word "sash" provides another "S" sound and a concrete visual to help anchor the scene.The Space Above the Head - Locus 0The numeral 0 is associated with the S, Z, and soft C sounds. The location is the space just above the crown of the head, ensuring it doesn't interfere with our locus for numeral one.Visualize the space directly above the top of your head. It's not a physical point but a boundless, empty expanse. In this vastness, a giant, shimmering chime is suspended. A powerful force strikes the chime, and it explodes with a beautiful, echoing S-S-S-S-S-Z-Z-Z-Z-L-E sound that projects out into the universe. Stars: The echoing sound waves from the cymbal are so powerful that they create tiny, sparkling stars that glitter in the space above your head. These stars dance and shimmer in the silent vacuum. This adds another visual cue with the "S" sound.Zebra: A mischievous zebra is running in a circle around the chimes. Its stripes are a blur as it chases its own tail. The sound associated with "1" is the "D" or "T" sound. We've chosen the top of the head, and Dinosaur: A tiny, friendly dinosaur (perhaps a Triceratops, with its three horns) is nibbling on the edge of the diamond. Tiara: A sparkling, jewel-encrusted tiara is sitting on top of the donut. It glitters in your mind's eye, a regal touch. Dominoes: The diamond isn't just a diamond; it's made of a line of falling dominoes. The dominoes are tumbling one after another, creating a satisfying clatter. Tack: You're not just touching the top; you're placing a tiny, sharp tack into the very center of the diamond. Tower: The diamond isn't flat; it's the base of a miniature, leaning tower of Pisa. Location: The top of the head.Number: 1.Sounds: D and T.#Memory,#MemoryTechniques,#BrainTraining,#LearnAnything,#StudyTips,#CognitiveScience,#MindPalace,#MajorSystem.#MagneticMemoryMethod,#MemoryPalace,#Mnemonics,#MemoryLoci#MnemonicBody,#MethodOfLoci,#MnemonicDevices,#MemoryMastery,#BrainHack,#Memorization,#MindPower,#MagneticMemoryMethod, #MemoryPalace, #MajorSystem, #Mnemonics #StudyTips, #BrainTraining, #LearnFast,#MemoryLoci, #DrAnthonyMetivier, #MnemonicBody, #MemoryTechniques, #LearnAnything,
Grandpa Bill Asks: listeners, picture this: We're standing with Dr. Metivier inside the early structure of his physical Memory Palace in Australia. Sunlight streams through the unglazed windows, illuminating the concrete floor where the A-to-Z memory wheel will soon be. In the center of this space, Dr. Metivier stands with his real bass guitar.Now, let's use the Major System to create a memorable scene of him playing multiple Bach works, associating each number with a specific action or element related to a piece.0 - S/Z/Soft C: Imagine Dr. Metivier zipping up a black leather jacket as he prepares to play the opening of Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor (often adapted for bass). The 'zipping' sound and the dramatic nature of the piece connect to the 'S' sound of zero.1 - T/Th: He then begins the famous Air on the G String from Orchestral Suite No. 3. Imagine him gently tapping his foot in time with the melody. The 'T' sound links to the number one and the flowing, gentle nature of the piece.2 - N: Next, he transitions to a lively section from one of the Brandenburg Concertos. Visualize a flock of gnats buzzing around his head as he plays a particularly intricate and fast passage, representing the quick, busy nature of the music. The 'N' sound connects to the number two.3 - M: For the powerful Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor, imagine a giant ham swinging rhythmically in front of him as he plays the deep, grounding bass line of the Passacaglia. The 'M' sound links to three, and the weighty image reflects the music's gravitas.4 - R: As he moves to a movement from one of the Cello Suites, picture a rower in a small boat gently rocking back and forth in time with the bowing motions his right hand makes on the bass strings. The 'R' sound connects to four and evokes the smooth, flowing quality of the cello.5 - L: Imagine a bright light suddenly illuminating the fretboard as he plays a particularly beautiful and soaring melodic line from the Mass in B minor (again, a bass adaptation). The 'L' sound connects to five and emphasizes the radiant quality of the music.6 - J/Sh/Ch/Soft G: For an adaptation of one of the English Suites, see him suddenly wearing a chef's hat and playfully conducting with his head while he plays a more dance-like and rhythmic section. The 'Ch' sound connects to six and adds a whimsical element.8 - F/V: As he plays a section from the Goldberg Variations (arranged for bass), imagine fluffy white foam suddenly erupting from the sound holes in his bass, bubbling and dissipating with the intricate variations. The 'F' sound connects to eight and provides a visual texture to the complex music.9 - P/B: Finally, for a powerful cadence, imagine a large purple balloon inflating and then gently deflating in time with the final, resonant notes of a Bach Chorale. The 'P/B' sounds connect to nine and provide a strong visual conclusion.So, there you have it, Dr. Metivier in his future Memory Palace, playing a medley of Bach, with each piece and a corresponding Major System number brought to life through a vivid mnemonic image. This is the power of the Magnetic Memory Method in action, connecting sound, image, and location in a truly unforgettable way. Dr. Metivier will be on my Podcast on 8/12/25 WE will discuss his thoughts on this at that time stay tuned!#BachOnBass,#MajorSystem,#MnemonicMusic,#PhysicalMemoryPalace,#Dr.AnthonyMetivier#MagneticMemoryMethod,#Bach,#MemoryPalace,#GrandpaBill,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,Join us at The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast Daily and YouTube @billholt8792
There are many different religious and cultural traditions and concepts that help us understand what I'm referring to today as the SELF. This is the term used in the Internal Family Systems approach (IFS) to describe our inner being, essence, soul, or spirit. Find out:What SELF (yes, in all caps) is and how it helps you heal from withinHow to know when you're accessing your core SELF (and how to get back to it when you're not)Strategies for finding and accessing your core SELFCheck in questions you can use to reconnect with SELFIn this episode, you'll learn about finding your SELF so that you can live from a place of peace and strength.---------------------------------------------------The concept of SELF reminds us that we are not our pain, our personality, or our behavior strategies. We are something else entirely. At our core, we are pure and unwounded. But as we go through life and get hurt, we become disconnected from that core SELF. We develop maladaptive behavior strategies to help us deal with that burden and pain. We lash out at people. We hurt ourselves and others.In order to be a Calm Mama, you need to be able to tap into the calm that lives within you. You need to tap into your inner wisdom so that you can respond instead of react. Finding Your SELFThink about a time in your life when you felt very calm or loving, or you stayed really grounded during a tough situation. Your mind isn't spinning. You're not thinking or worrying about all the things you need to do or what might happen later or money or your body or whether people like you…See if you can feel this in your body. Maybe you feel a gentle weight in your belly, like you're sitting more grounded. Maybe you notice a lightness in your chest and head, softness in your shoulders and neck. You're breathing a little deeper and easier. Your core SELF's intention is to heal you and to give you more and more access to that SELF. Here's how to reconnect. Notice when you aren't in your SELF EnergyIFS gives us the 8 Cs of the SELF: Curiosity, calm, confidence, compassion, creativity, clarity, courage, and connectedness. If you feel any of these (and especially if you feel more than one), you're likely connected to your SELF.When you are disconnected from SELF and in your wounded energy, you might notice yourself feeling panicked, anxious, stressed, insecure, or judgmental. Take a Pause BreakThis is a tool I teach a lot. It's simply taking a moment to slow down time. Buying yourself a few seconds so you can get ahead of the next moment instead of reacting to it. Getting to a place where you can respond slowly. When you see everything as an emergency that you need to respond to right away, you get sucked into the drama and overwhelm. You get into fix it/change it/stop it/solve it mode. When you want to jump in and control things - that's not your core SELF reacting. It's your wounded parts, your ego, your fear, and your stress.I truly believe that even 10 seconds can help you settle your nervous system and feel more calm. Get into your bodyNotice the feelings in your body. One thing that really helps me is to lay flat down on the ground with my arms and legs extended (similar to Savasana in yoga). I remind myself that the earth can hold me, and I feel my body relax and release. A body scan is another helpful technique. Visualize each part of your body - from your toes up to the top of your head - recognizing and feeling each part as you go.If you'd...

In this episode, Stephen Martin discusses the challenges faced by neurodiverse individuals, particularly those with dyslexia and ADHD, in managing time and expectations. He emphasizes the importance of understanding that tasks may take longer than anticipated, not due to laziness or incompetence, but because of the unique way neurodiverse brains process information. Through the metaphor of a journey, he illustrates the need to focus on direction rather than speed, encouraging listeners to visualize their goals clearly and commit to the journey, even when faced with setbacks.TakeawaysYou're not broken; there's a reason for your struggles.Tasks often take longer than expected for neurodiverse individuals.Translating ideas from mind to reality can be painful.Focus on direction over speed in your pursuits.Visualize your goals clearly to stay motivated.Burnout often stems from unrealistic expectations.Commitment to a journey is crucial for success.It's important to reassess your goals along the way.Don't get sidetracked by distractions during your journey.Self-acceptance is key to managing neurodiversity.Keywordsneurodiversity, ADHD, dyslexia, time management, personal growth, burnout, goal setting, visualization, self-acceptance, mental health, adults with dyslexia, support for adults.If you want to find out more visit:truthaboutdyslexia.comJoin our Facebook Groupfacebook.com/groups/adultdyslexiaFollow the RightSiders Supplement Journeyrightsiders.org/wait-list

Coach, I'm getting ready for my full distance IRONMAN this Fall. What do you think about me doing a full marathon as a build up to the IRONMAN? That's awesome—you're gearing up for one of the most demanding endurance events out there! Preparing for a full-distance IRONMAN (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike, 26.2-mile run) requires a smart balance of volume, intensity, and recovery. Your question about whether a full marathon is necessary or ideal is a great one, and it really depends on your goals and current training status. Is a Full Marathon Necessary for IRONMAN Prep? While many athletes include a marathon in their build-up, it's not always the most effective or safest choice. Here's why: Pros of Running a Marathon Before IRONMAN: - Mental confidence boost from completing the distance. - Opportunity to test nutrition, pacing, and gear. - Simulates the fatigue and mental grind of the IRONMAN run. Cons: - High injury risk due to the pounding and recovery time required. - Doesn't replicate IRONMAN fatigue (you'll be running after 6–8 hours of swimming and biking). - Can disrupt your training cycle due to the taper and recovery needed. Viable Alternatives to a Marathon Here are some smart substitutes that can build endurance and race readiness without the downsides of a standalone marathon: 1. **Century Ride (100-mile bike)** - **Pros**: Low-impact, builds aerobic base, simulates IRONMAN bike leg. - **Use it for**: Nutrition testing, pacing, and mental endurance. - **Pair it with**: A short brick run (e.g., 6–10 miles) to simulate race fatigue. 2. **Long Swim Events (e.g., 5K–10K open water)** - **Pros**: Builds swim confidence, improves pacing and sighting. - **Use it for**: Practicing open water skills and wetsuit comfort. - **Pair it with**: A bike ride or short run for a swim-bike brick. 3. **Race Simulation Bricks** - **Example**: 80-mile bike + 13-mile run. - **Pros**: Mimics IRONMAN fatigue better than a standalone marathon. - **Use it for**: Testing gear, nutrition, and pacing under fatigue. 4. **Back-to-Back Long Runs** - **Example**: 12 miles Saturday + 10 miles Sunday. - **Pros**: Builds run durability with less injury risk than a marathon. - **Use it for**: Building cumulative fatigue without a single long effort. Coach's Summary Recommendation Unless you're chasing a marathon PR or need the mental boost, **skip the standalone marathon**. Instead, focus on **race-specific brick workouts**, **long rides**, and **progressive long runs**. These will better prepare you for the unique demands of IRONMAN day. Get Gritty Tip: Follow Your Dreams! Welcome to this very special Get Gritty Tip, where we're celebrating a huge milestone—500 episodes! Listeners, did you know that most podcasts don't make it past their third episode? While some podcasts have hundreds or even thousands of episodes, a large number of podcasts are abandoned early. A significant percentage of podcasts (90%) will not make it past their third episode, and another 90% of those that do will quit before reaching 20 episodes, according to Riverside FM. To honor this impressive feat, we are putting Rich in the interviewee's chair and speaking with the man who made it all happen. Rich's dedication to endurance sports, coaching, and the endurance community has not only shaped this podcast but also the lives of countless people around the world.

Rich, thank you for everything you've poured into this podcast, the community, and the sport. Here's to the next 500 episodes and beyond. Your work is truly remarkable! TriDot Workout of the Week: Bike-Run Bricks Today's workout is Bike-Run Bricks. Session Note This session is best done on a trainer.

Shift to one gear easier. Stretch back and calves. **Run - First 1 min find form and rhythm. Do NOT exceed race pace. / Run @ race pace. / Final 1 min build to FAST finish pace. Visualize finish chute! Hydrate during recovery between brick sets. Balance of time in Zone 2. Fun Segment: IRONMAN or IRONmad? Alright, we covered a great question in our Ask A Coach segment—should you run a full marathon during your IRONMAN build? That got me thinking about all the wild decisions athletes make leading up to race day. So welcome to a new segment I'm calling Ironman or Ironmad? Here's how it works: I'll throw out some scenarios—real ones we've seen or heard—and we'll give our take. Are they solid strategies… or are we veering into madness? Scenario 1: “You decide to do a heat adaptation block for your IRONMAN—by sitting in a dry sauna in a full bike kit every day for a week.” Scenario 2: “You ride your longest bike session—112 miles—indoors on the trainer because you want to control nutrition, effort, and minimize interruptions.” Scenario 3: “You sign up for a local sprint tri just to ‘shake off the rust'… but end up racing it full throttle two weeks out from your IRONMAN.” Scenario 4: “You tape motivational quotes inside your helmet, on your bike stem, and under your water bottle to read mid-race.” Scenario 5: “You fly to your race 48 hours before the gun goes off, figuring you'll ‘sleep on the plane' and save money on hotel nights.” Bonus Scenario! Scenario 6: “You wear your brand-new race kit, race shoes, and nutrition mix for the very first time… on race day.” Race day success isn't about doing more—it's about doing what matters. So when you're making decisions in your IRONMAN prep, ask yourself: Is this building toward the race… or just feeding my ego? And if you've got a questionable training story or race-week decision you want to share, send it our way. We might feature it in the next Ironman or Ironmad? Closing: Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed and enjoy the endurance journey!

What if the first step in healing isn't a new supplement or test—but learning how to feel safe in your own body? In this episode, I'm guiding you through the foundational (yet often overlooked) first step in any healing journey: regulating your nervous system. We explore why your body can't heal when it's stuck in fight-or-flight, how to recognize the subtle signs of chronic stress, and the ancient rituals that help us come back home to ourselves—starting with the breath. I also share the deeply personal story of how my own health unraveled in my 20s—despite doing “everything right”—and how it took walking away from the noise of modern wellness to remember what healing truly feels like. This episode is an invitation to soften. To get curious. To stop chasing protocols and start listening to your inner wisdom. We'll walk through breathwork, circadian rhythms, and the power of building your own sanctuary for rest—because you deserve to feel good again. If your symptoms feel confusing, your stress feels constant, or you just need a moment of grounding... this is for you.

What if the difference between dreaming and manifesting lies not in your mind, but in your body's ability to feel safe receiving what you want? In this special episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily is being interviewed by her best friend Layla Martin, one of the world's most celebrated tantric teachers and the brilliant mind who helped inspire Emily's newest work, Ziva Magic. Layla draws out the untold story behind Ziva Meditation, why it works when other practices fail, how it's designed specifically for "householders" (people with busy lives, jobs, and kids), and why the combination of meditation + manifestation creates exponentially more powerful results than either practice alone.
In this episode I welcome Theresa Sansone for an insightful conversation about the power of connecting with your future self. Together, we explore what it truly means to visualize your future self, both personally and professionally, and how this approach differs from traditional goal setting by focusing on relaxing into your unique blueprint rather than chasing external goals. Discover how future memories and tuning into your energetic frequency can provide wisdom and guidance, why aligning with your inner potential is essential, and practical strategies for tending to your energy even when immediate change isn't possible. This episode is designed to inspire entrepreneurs to create a life and business that feels authentic and aligned, moving away from one-size-fits-all success formulas and embracing a more humane, heart-centered path. In this episode we talked about: The concept of visualizing your future self and what it means both personally and professionally. The difference between self-visualization and traditional goal setting, emphasizing “relaxing into” your blueprint rather than chasing external goals. How “future memories” and connecting with your future self can provide wisdom and guidance. The idea of everyone having a unique inner blueprint (likened to an acorn's potential to become an oak tree) and the importance of aligning with it. The importance of tuning into the energetic “frequency” of your future self, using the metaphor of tuning forks to explain alignment and attraction.

Speaker 0: hi, theresa. it's lovely to connect with you again. i'm so excited to have you. Speaker 1: thank you for having me. Speaker 0: yeah. it's wonderful. it's such a a timely topic because as, we were connected actually, we we need to do a shout out to will nuit to connect with us. so thank you, will. and yeah. i can't remember exactly why he thought we would, you know, really hit it off. but but then when when i saw the topic of of your expertise, which is visualizing your future self, i thought, well, how timely because it's a chapter in my business like we're human book, and i think it really is this thing that right now we need to reimagine new things. right? and that has to do with, yeah, the the future and with our future selves, but also the future of humanity. so tell us a little but you for you, yes, it's timely, but you've been doing this for a long time. so tell us a little bit, you know, yes, what it means to visualize your future self, what it means to you, but also how how you got into this, like, twenty years ago. right? Speaker 1: yeah. well, i've been coaching for twenty five years plus. Speaker 0: wow. yeah. Speaker 1: and i was in it. i knew it was not for me. it just wasn't working. i knew there was something more. i knew there was a sort of an essence of me that wasn't being expressed. so several kind of programs and courses later, i, really, came alive to that there was absolutely more for me to to give. and, i came across the book the artist's way that many of your viewers may well know. i became a coach and i started primarily teaching that, about how to rediscover your self expression and really be sort of following your true path. but it was a lot around, you know, your our creative selves. and i did that for thirteen years, running 12 workshops, you know, in person, and latterly online and so on. so, i became really alive to what can happen when people really reconnect with themselves, their true essence. and often it is a very sort of creative side. right? and, go beyond all the programming and the sort of social constructs that we get, you know, battered by over the years. and, but then, you know, i'd been having a kind of waking dream about, this version of me that was living in a fantastic home and that was, just enjoying a moment over a cup of coffee where she was sort of taking that all in and, enjoying that. and then my family sort of suddenly appeared, and we all went away. we were all going out the front door with suitcases because i was giving a speech in paris. and, and this just wasn't something i was going to share with anyone because it sounded a bit kind of outlandish at the time. and but it wouldn't go away. this was a a it felt more like a memory. in fact, nowadays, i call them future memories because it felt so real. and it just suddenly occurred to me that i could experimented with that and, talked to her and blow me down. she was answering back with a lot of really great wisdom. so i thought i knew i was sort of on to something. so i then was grabbing every kind of warm human being that i could possibly find and put them on my couch and and getting them to try this visualization that i came up with to sort of connect to that part of, you know, that i knew was inside of all all of us. and, and everybody found a connection. so it was wonderful. and i you know, i've been doing it now for sort of nearly fifteen years, these, these visualisations. and there's only been one time when somebody hasn't got their future self, and that was because they'd been frog marched to me by their aunt. Speaker 0: yeah. you know, it Speaker 1: wasn't a sort of a a sort of willing, participant. but, yeah, i mean, everybody has this. this. so it's, like, really very, very, you know, revealing that this is a truth that we all hold inside of ourselves. like, who we are able to become if we just relax into our own blueprint. so i liken it to an acorn, has the blueprint of oak tree in it, but it doesn't look anything like an oak tree. mhmm. nor is it the size of an oak tree. but it knows, if you like, that to to just relax into its blueprint and it becomes an oak tree. mhmm. and we are no different. we have a blueprint that is absolutely special to us. we're all different. and if we relax into that and let that unfold and really know that that's who we are, then we will become oak tree. so this is a process of getting in touch with your oak tree ness, as i say. Speaker 0: yeah. and and, you know, several times now you said relax into. right? yeah. and so maybe another question is how is self visualization different from, like, the traditional goal setting? Speaker 1: mhmm. Speaker 0: right? which is very action oriented. so not so much relaxing into. so tell Speaker 1: me yeah. Speaker 0: talk about the difference. Speaker 1: well, that paradigm is about chasing, you know, about tracking down, making things happen. it's about push and shove and all of that. it's about trying to insert ourselves into life. this is not that. this is this is, as i say, following your own inner blueprint, and it's an inner knowing. mhmm. so it's we all have it, and often it doesn't take much to peep for people to admit, yeah, i've always known i can be and do more. and that still small voice inside of us that's calling out for that is your oak tree ness. mhmm. it's that part of you that knows what you're capable of, knows what you're here for, and knows what you're capable of in terms of, you know, your being your expanded fully realized self. and so we're tuning into a knowing. we're not kind of goal setting, as you say, and, like, aspirationally trying to go for something that may not even be ourselves. right? so people might think the the word is think. right? they might think they know what it is, but it's nothing to do with what the heart and soul, if you like, know. Speaker 0: well, it's usually the the definitions of success that come from the outside in. right? like, the career development that you should have, and and and that's outside in instead of inside out. yeah. Speaker 1: exactly. i use those very words when, i i also work with with organisations. Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: and, yeah, i use those very words. right? it's not outside in. it's inside out. and, obviously, in organizations, that is a, you know, completely different way of doing things. Speaker 0: yeah. i wanna i wanna talk about that as well because yeah. when you taught yeah. told me that you're bringing this into our organizations, i'm like, wow. you know, this is yeah. it's a paradigm shift, right, that we're completely, yeah, unknown territory for for organizations for sure, but even even for people, i would say. like, and so you let me through one of these, visualizations, which was which was amazing. and i had done it before, and i had, you know, kind of transcribed, my experience in the in this chapter. as a person who is actually not i'm not necessarily comfortable with visualizing. right? and i told you that and and you're like, don't worry about it. it's like it's more of this feeling, this knowing. Speaker 1: yes. Speaker 0: and so really that's what came up. right? it wasn't like i wasn't seeing myself necessarily in future situations, but it was more like a deep knowing. and i think that's very aligned with, you know, my idea of of changing our relationship to work as well, which is less about the doing and more about the being. and therefore, if we are more in this being, right, then we yeah. we we are we need to be less in the doing. so talk to me about, you know, what kind of different experiences people have when and and maybe just explain what it looks like when you have, when you do a session like that. Speaker 1: yeah. no. it's a really good point. and and and it's very pivotal. i always set it up with people that you may not see anything. Speaker 0: right. Speaker 1: this is not about visualising in a way. i mean, it's just an easy word because everybody knows what it is. but it's not about pictures. for all that i saw pictures, and some people do, it's really not necessary. what's necessary is that we're tuning into, the way of being, if you like. the the the essence, the feeling of right. your future self. and if we have that, then we have everything we need to align to your future self. so the way this works is forever however we are energetically in life is what we attract. so i use the metaphor of tuning forks. so if i have the tuning fork for c, note c in my hand, and i have a row of tuning forks on the table, only one of which is tuned to c, and i ping my c tuning fork, then it's only the c tuning fork on the table that's going to vibrate. mhmm. so if we wanna become our future selves, and this applies to organisations too, if we wanna become our future selves, then we have to resonate at sea in order to attract the future self that is sea. mhmm. and how do we how do we align? well, we've gotta know energetically who our future self is. Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: and then we can align. but until we're you know, whilst we're in confusion, oh, you know, that person's saying that, society's saying that, my teachers told me that. right? we're not we don't know really what the vibration is that we're trying to line up to. right? so and so once we're equipped with the know the knowledge that our future self resonates in this way, energetically, in other words, they have these kind of values, they they they approach life in these ways, then, you know, it's much much easier to go, okay. and that is why my program is called future self now. mhmm. because the only way we can align is in the now. yeah. that's all we've got. so we have to be looking after tending to the quality of our energy right now. and is it aligned as much as possible to my future self's energy? and and the more i do that, the more i can do it. i mean, none of us perfect. right? but the more i can and the more i'm kind of aware that that's my goal, then the more that's gonna come towards us. right? so the quicker it will come towards us. yeah. so that's that's the game. Speaker 0: i love this image of the, of the tuning forks. and and what i thought of when you were explaining that is, like, it also matters who's around those tuning forks. right? because the frequency or the resonance of other people constantly influences you. and and it's interesting because i'm just going to the market through the marketing, like, we're human program where we're talking about human design and how we are wired. and then this lady is like, well, i think i'm just surrounded by the wrong people. and i'm like, totally, totally true. like, that's what happened to me when i pivoted the business. and it's like, if you're with the wrong people, then obviously you always feel awkward, being yourself. right? Speaker 1: yeah. yeah. Speaker 0: so you need to actually also change the people that you surround yourself with. yeah. Speaker 1: if you know that that affects you and you're tending to the quality of your energy mhmm. and your the quality of your energy is the number one priority right. then you need to do something about that. now sometimes we don't have any choice. because say it's your boss. yeah. so now you've got to change energetically about the boss. Speaker 0: right. Speaker 1: now it doesn't mean that you stay with that company, you know, like it might be time to go. right? but whilst you have to, what i say to people is you have to change the energy of how you're approaching the boss in order to attract something different from them. Speaker 0: right. Speaker 1: so, i mean, just a quick example of this is my husband who was having a terrible time with a, colleague at work, and and i and i asked him to think think about the things that he appreciated about that person. and he was like nothing. nothing's nothing's very good about them. but i said you know next time you go into meeting because this person was you know being very disingenuous and very critical in meetings and things like that. i said, next time you go to a meeting, just concentrate on the things that you enjoy about that person. he said he couldn't think of anything, of course, at but then we we went into it because all you have to do is a tiny, tiny thing. and he said, well, they're good with their team. Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: and they they they dress smartly. right? and it sounds ridiculous, but it doesn't matter because you can imagine yeah. going in and the energy of that mhmm. changes the dynamic immediately. and he did that. and at the end of the meeting, the woman praised what he'd been doing in front of everyone. it was a completely different wow. but also what happened was two weeks later, that person resigned and, went on. so, like, there is this concept that you can curate what's around you by how you be energetically. and everything that's not a match yeah. to your energy has a tendency to just sort of fall off. it's something mhmm. to put to the test. right? but, yeah. it's it's a a fascinating and very deep and wide subject to this thing about how we are energetically and what we can attract. right? Speaker 0: so you mentioned the the name of your program is your future self now. now. when we visualize ourselves, though we see or we feel, well, the future self. right? and so how do we manage the uncertainty or the path from being who we are now and being who we want to be and and not get obsessed with this trip to paris. you know? Speaker 1: yeah. yes. exactly. no. and it's a very good thing good good question. and, well, one thing is that you can be in touch with your future self. and, you know, like, this is a conversation you actually can have with your own inner wisdom. in other words, your future self. because this is, like, the best version of you, the the wisest person that you've got at your on your at your fingertips. right? and that person would say, relax. it's coming. and they would say, enjoy your life while, you know, while you're doing what you're doing, and you are building towards that. and, you know, trust it and relax into it. i don't want you to hurry up and get here. i want you to enjoy the process that's needed in order to become this. right? and so they wouldn't want you to wish your life away. they want you to enjoy the journey and enjoy the knowing that that is what's coming. Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: and, and again, you know, if you're chasing, if you're feeling resentful and impatient, any of those things, right, you're now not aligned to how future self does life. mhmm. yeah. so Speaker 0: i see my future self or or, like, before we did this session, i i was more tuning into my wise woman. right. like, see myself on the bike and, you know, white hair flowing in the the wind and getting my groceries in this little basket in in front of me. and so yeah. just like like you said, there's no rush, you know, in in that in that picture. right. and at the same time, i'm like, well, why am i not? you know, we we had bikes, but, where we live in lausanne, it's very up and down. and so i never used it, and so we transformed them into ebikes. and now every time i take this ebike, i'm like, i'm already my future self. Speaker 1: exactly. yeah. yeah. it's a really good question to ask. in what ways am i already my future self? Speaker 0: right. Speaker 1: so back to that question about the what we see and what we feel, it's the what comes in terms of the actual manifestations. yeah. i haven't been in done that talk in paris yet. i will. right. right? but the the question is much more, how much am i being future self now? right? and, and if i'm energetically aligned to her, then i don't need that. right? that that that's just a sort of byproduct. those things are the byproducts. right? right. if you think about it, what are we wanting in life? we're not really wanting the things because we're we're just conflating what we think the things are going to do and how they're gonna make us feel. Speaker 0: love us. yeah. Speaker 1: so we we're actually wanting the feeling. mhmm. yeah. so that's what we can that we have some power over that right now. right? so we can have the feeling of that. yes. the manifestations aren't there. and if if that if if that's making us feel like we're lacking in some way, then we can ask ask ourselves, so what am i needing right now? Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: you know, that that isn't about the thing. it's about the the the the way it makes me feel. can i can i bring that to myself that way that it makes me feel right now? the answer is yes. with a bit of, you know, looking around and checking in with yourself, you'll be able to find a way of having that experience right now. Speaker 0: yeah. another thing that came up, in our little visualisation was the hippie picture. right? and i Speaker 1: think i was Speaker 0: mentioning barefoot. and so i'm like, well, i just gotta walk more often barefoot. right? like, that's that's the easy thing. and, yes, it creates a very different feeling than walking with shoes on. so Speaker 1: yeah. exactly. absolutely. so there's all sorts of things. i mean, people can go on to my website and and download a a thing about how to align to your future self. but it is you can do it in these little things. you know? like, what's their, you know, are you doing the things that they're doing that that you could absolutely do now? like you say, like the biking and the, you know, might even be just the the kind of tea that you have or, you know, like, are you are you being as abundant with yourself as they are being abundant with themselves? you know? like, in doing that in a in a, you know, obviously, in a way that works, but it's the feelings of it. so, yeah. like, if they're if they have a real hippie element that they're really enjoying, Speaker 0: how can Speaker 1: you have that right now? right? so, yeah. i love what you're doing. brilliant. Speaker 0: yeah. so the reason i brought it into the business like we're human book, is also because i think it's such a powerful tool to get us out of this stuckness and destruction that we are in right now Speaker 1: mhmm. Speaker 0: and really use it as a tool to reimagine completely, like, something that we feel right now is completely impossible that we could ever have or ever live in abundance. and i'm not talking becoming millionaires or anything, but just feeling peaceful inside and feeling abundant. right? yeah. and so i think it's a really powerful tool to, yeah, reimagine our our life and work differently. Speaker 1: yeah. Speaker 0: have you is is that a topic that comes up in your, in your with your clients? Speaker 1: well, yes. i mean, i i'm actually the chair of the association of sustainability practitioners. and it's it's kind of, i mean, they're a very amazing hopeful organization who are looking, you know, really future sensing and in, as i say, in really hopeful ways. but, yeah, the that exercise with them has, i think, shifted things, subtly as we've gone along is that we have to. we have to tune into that version of life and for and the planet. because if we don't, we're gonna collapse. we're gonna get overwhelmed and we become we lose our agency, and we can't do anything about it. mhmm. so another metaphor i use is one of cells in the body. so if you have a body, so that's the planet, and we are the cells, there may be disease in parts of the body, but it doesn't help if all the cells in the body kind of rush towards the disease and get infected themselves. mhmm. we have to have pockets where there are healthy cells that can grow from being healthy. and the more healthy cells there are, the more we can help heal the disease. it's the healthy cells that are going to heal. yeah. we can't we can't solve the problems from the energy of the problems. we have to solve the problems from the energy of the solution. so the more healthy cells, human beings, there are in the world, the more we are we can help heal. so that for me is very, very pivotal. it's it's way the way asp, the association, works. and i know we we both, enjoy the idg and the, you know, development goals and what they're up to. and there's so many organizations and there's so many people out there who are doing great things. we need to highlight those people. we need to stop highlighting what's going wrong and we need to start highlighting what's going right. and the more we do that, a bit like my my story about the colleague of my husband's. right? by he he focused on what was right. Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: and there's always something to find, even if it's that the person has nice teeth. right? you know, there's there's always something. if you focus on that, that's where the healing starts. right? so that's why it's important. Speaker 0: yeah. i love how you compare the micro with the macro because it's it's so true. like yeah. and and that then changes the energy of of us as change makers because, like you say, if we are not healthy as change makers, what kind of can we really create? Speaker 1: yeah. so yeah. yeah. then we get into force and and and bitterness and anger, and we lose our agency, and we just join in. you know, there's another i love you might have spotted i love a metaphor, but there's the the metaphor of the well. right? so if somebody's fallen down the well, you're of no help to them just going and joining them in the bottom of the well and going, oh, poor you. right? we we can't that's not that's not helping them get out of the well. we have to stay above and throw them a line from there. but we cannot come down. we have to stay there. we have to be willing to stay healthy. and it's a brave choice to stay hopeful when everybody keeps telling us that you know it's it's hopeless and it's all going to hell in a handbasket. we cannot engage with that because now we're part of the problem. Speaker 0: yeah. and that's why i think, you know, just the the word future nowadays, it's such an important word to use in everything. and, you know, of course, especially in your work, but but everybody should, like, make the future part of of their work now because that's what we're working towards, right? any kind of healing, change making, consulting, changing, anything like that should all be future, oriented. Speaker 1: yes. yes. Speaker 0: it can, you know, it can only be helpful to visualize that future so that you know where you're going towards, what you're going towards. Speaker 1: and to know that there is something to go towards. right? that there is yeah. Speaker 0: there Speaker 1: is hope and that, you know, we otherwise, how can we operate? right? yeah. i don't know if you know dan pink. he did a he did a ted talk on motivation. mhmm. which basically comes down to three things. amp, basically, is the acronym. autonomy, mastery, and purpose. Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: so in order for us to really engage with life and do it well, we have to feel a sense of autonomy that we're doing things on our own terms in our own way. we have to feel that we're getting mastery. in other words, we're getting better and better at something, that we're growing. and we have to have a sense of purpose, of a sense of a higher that there's something higher that we're working towards. yeah. and that really resonates with me. i think that's absolutely true. and so that the future self work, well, helps with all of that. because, you know, autonomy, you suddenly see that future self is doing in her or his own way. mhmm. and but it that it's of real service to do it that way. not to become a clone of somebody else. right? that they're the fact that they're relaxing into their own oak tree ness means that they they are being the greatest version of themselves and that is the greatest gift that we can give. right? that's a very generous act. it's always good to feel like we're getting better and better at something. and future self gives you that sense of, oh, yeah. there's some there is a gap, but that's fun to to, you know, to work on closing that gap. and there's something much bigger at work that my future self is really engaged with, and i i can really get behind that. Speaker 0: it's beautiful. Speaker 1: mhmm. Speaker 0: how would you say, like, people, can start on their own, you know, kind of just yeah. you i think you said having a conversation with your future self. would that be the step, or how would they get started? Speaker 1: well, it's interesting. yes. i think if you, if you feel fairly close to your future self, like, you can tell that you do have that kind of inner knowing that there is more Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: and you may have even had those kind of waking dreams that i've had, then yes, absolutely get in touch with that person and have a conversation with them on per on paper. you can lie down and and see if you can start interacting with that person. if you're feeling a little bit more confused and lost, it helps to be guided, i have to say. i think it's, sometimes it's just a difficult thing for us to sort of go towards by ourselves if we're feeling a little bit, you know, more out of sorts. right? because it's about the more we're kind of energetically aligned with our future selves, the more we're gonna see them and feel them. so i think sometimes it does require somebody to help you get into that energetic space. right? but, you know, if you do have a sense, then absolutely you can, do that for yourself. Speaker 0: i i think maybe, like, what i used to do a few years back is a recorded meditation that you can find on insight timer or calm or one of the these apps. yeah. yeah. the one i used was something about, you know, future wise woman or something like that. so that already kinda gets you familiar with the with the topic Speaker 1: yes. Speaker 0: and makes it then once you do have a guided, visualization, it makes it less uncomfortable. Speaker 1: yes. exactly. you know what you're doing. that. i i have one too that i can give you the link for Speaker 0: as well. yes. yeah. please do. Speaker 1: yeah. yeah. Speaker 0: yeah. i think you have a, yeah, an ebook as well. so please do tell tell the listeners where they can find you, your website, and all of that. Speaker 1: yeah. yeah. so they, my website is, futureselfnow.co.uk. and so you can get in touch with me through there. and as i say, there are some, tips and, sort of, it says a workbook for aligning to your future self in there that you can download. and, i have a book, what i call the future self now playbook is on amazon. so you can if you just look up future self now and make sure you say playbook at the end of it because there's another book that comes up quite often. but the future self now playbook, then you that is just packed with, like, so many tools for aligning to your future self. so, yeah. that that's and it's very colorful and full of photos and just a as i say, i called it a playbook for that reason because nice. you know, we have to we have to have a lighthearted approach to life. right? Speaker 0: it's that creative part, i guess, from your earlier years in in business. yeah. yeah. Speaker 1: yeah. Speaker 0: and it's true that i feel like if you wanna play with the future, you can't do it from the rational mind. right? you have to go into the other side of the brain. and so i'm sure it helps to have color and images and all of that. yes. Speaker 1: yeah. yeah. yeah. yeah. it's it's, you know, as soon as we get into that it's all about kind of, it's all serious and we gotta heal and, you know, there's some words that are quite triggering. Speaker 0: mhmm. Speaker 1: and, you can see the energy that that stirs up. and so, like, now we're not in the energy of the solution. so we this is why i'm highlighting. Speaker 0: well, i would assume also anything that is, you know, the more like i said in the beginning, the traditional goal setting. so if it's results and achievements and and well, that's all the rational mind. right? right. exactly. figure it out. and Speaker 1: yeah. and and, you know, that is why we go to the future, by the way. you know, like, who you are is who you are is who you are. you've always been this way. we could argue you were you were it before you were born and that you'll be it after you die. we don't, you know, like, because it's energy after all. right? right. so who you are is who you are. the only reason we go to future self the only reason we go to the future is because it's the only place that our brains let us suspend disbelief to your point. right? mhmm. and, and and really get in touch with that part of you. we could get back in touch with that part of you when you were five and you were full of the joys of spring and, you know, just loving life. Speaker 0: that's inner child work. right? Speaker 1: that's you. right? that's still you. and and and i'm sure there's now times now when you're on top of a hill and you're just in wonder, right? that's the same thing. it's just harder in the past and in the now to do that with all the busyness and the stuff that's been before. so we use the future only because it's the place we can have the cleanest, clearest view. so, you know, it's not about chasing, as you so rightly put it, and it's not about trying to get there. it's about who we're being now. we're just highlighting much more who we already are. Speaker 0: it's brilliant. so grateful for your work and Speaker 1: oh, thank you. Speaker 0: like i said, i i'm sure it it it was important fifteen years ago, but right now i cannot highlight how important it is. so Speaker 1: yeah. it definitely feels it. yeah. Speaker 0: lots of work to do, especially with those organisations. right? like mhmm. yeah. Speaker 1: yeah. yeah. yeah. because organisations can get in touch with their their values and their essence too. right? and it's a it's an energetic thing. and it's it's a new paradigm, but i think, you know, we'll get there with those organizations starting. Speaker 0: yeah. we're we're especially with are waking up. yeah. Speaker 1: yeah. exactly. and you're very much part of that impulse, so it's brilliant. Speaker 0: thank you. i can't wait to see you in person in stockholm in october. Speaker 1: i'm looking forward to it. Speaker 0: until then, thanks so much for being on the show, theresa. Speaker 1: thank you so much for having me.

What if the story we've been told about the divine feminine has been deliberately rewritten to keep us disconnected from our most potent creative force?
What if everything you were taught about Mary Magdalene, Christianity, and the divine feminine was deliberately erased from history? In this revelatory episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily dives deep with Meggan Watterson, Harvard-trained theologian, scholar of the Divine Feminine, and bestselling author of Mary Magdalene Revealed and The Girl Who Baptized Herself. Meggan unveils the buried truths that were literally found in Egyptian caves. Ancient scriptures that reveal a version of Christianity radically different from what survived. These texts show Christ giving Mary Magdalene secret mystical teachings, women in positions of spiritual authority, and a path to the divine that runs through the body, not around it.

A Doctor's Transformation Story: What happens when a logical, science-minded optometrist discovers the power of embodied manifesting? In this inspiring student spotlight from the Ziva Magic Podcast Series, meet Danny, a father, husband, and eye doctor who literally wrote "I'm skeptical" on his intake form... and finished the course saying "I believe in magic." Danny's incredible journey, from writing "I'm skeptical" to declaring "I believe in magic", proves that manifesting isn't just about positive thinking or vision boards. It's about becoming the version of you who is actually ready to receive everything you've been asking for. And that's exactly what happens inside Ziva Magic, the powerful embodied manifesting course Danny just completed.
What if your brain has a built-in filtration system that's keeping you stuck in worry instead of manifesting your dreams? In this special bonus episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, I'm taking you deep into the science behind embodied manifesting and revealing why traditional manifestation techniques often fall short. Most people spend minutes every day "worshiping their worries"—obsessing over what could go wrong instead of focusing on what they'd love to create. But there's actual neuroscience behind why this happens, and more importantly, how to rewire it. I break down the reticular activating system (RAS), your brain's filter that determines what you notice in reality. When you're in chronic stress, this filter prioritizes threats over opportunities. But when you learn to regulate your nervous system first, then manifest from that grounded state, everything changes.
Visualize yourself as part of an infinite web of light or energy as you empower yourself with an affirmation. Quantum physics suggests the existence of a universal field – what Gregg Braden calls "The Divine Matrix" – that connects everything in the cosmos. This field is a neutral, intelligent medium that responds to our consciousness. Our emotions and beliefs aren't just internal states; they are a language that speaks directly to this field, influencing the reality we experience. There is no "them and us," only "we," all intimately connected through this conscious field. This is day 2 of a 7-day meditation series, "Beyond Limits: Embracing Your Infinite Potential," episodes 3325-3331.
