In this episode, I share the transformative power of our thoughts and how they shape our lives. I start by sharing my experience of entering the year feeling slightly off and struggling to pinpoint the reasons behind my funk. It wasn't until I revisited a journaling practice that I began to uncover the layers of my thoughts and emotions. I emphasize the importance of allowing ourselves to express our thoughts freely without judgment or editing. This brain dump technique can lead to surprising revelations about our inner dialogue, often exposing feelings and beliefs we may not consciously recognize. I discuss how we cannot outrun our thoughts; we must confront and understand them to initiate healing and change. Your thoughts are not truths but rather old stories shaped by past experiences. I introduce the concept of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and how it teaches us that our thoughts create our reality. By shifting our inner dialogue, we can open ourselves up to new possibilities and opportunities right before us.

As we kick off this short Friday episode, I introduce a tool that I wish I had understood much earlier in my journey. The key takeaway? To truly create results in your life, you must first feel it before you see it. I discuss the importance of cultivating a sense of safety within your body to hold the goals you desire. Many of my clients come in with big dreams, but when I ask them how it would feel if those dreams were realized today, they often express feelings of fear and unpreparedness. This reaction stems from the subconscious mind's primary job: to keep us safe. I emphasize that stepping outside of our comfort zones is essential for growth, but it can also trigger feelings of not feeling safe. In this episode, I share how dedicating just five minutes each morning and evening to visualize your goals as if they are already achieved. I encourage you to get specific about what you want and to immerse yourself in the feelings associated with that success. Instead of fixating on tangible outcomes, like a specific amount of money, I urge you to focus on the emotions those outcomes will evoke. By anchoring in gratitude and visualizing your goals, you can teach your body that it is safe to hold the success you desire.

In this episode, I am talking about the transformative potential of your thoughts. Through the lens of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), I share how our thoughts shape our reality. I stress the importance of managing your thoughts, as they directly influence your feelings, behaviours, and, ultimately, the results you achieve. I encourage listeners to identify their most persistent negative thoughts and to recognize that these thoughts are like seeds that can either nurture growth or hinder progress. I share practical strategies for catching and reframing negative thoughts. First, I discuss the significance of interrupting negative thought patterns without self-judgment. I suggest using neutral phrases to acknowledge these thoughts, which helps to diffuse their power. I explain the process of reframing, likening it to changing the lens on a camera to see situations from a different perspective. I encourage you to pick one limiting belief to work on, guiding you through noticing, interrupting, and reframing it until you feel like you can master it, and have control over it, so it no longer owns you.

In this episode, I encourage listeners to embrace the challenges of pursuing their dreams. I discuss the inevitability of losing people along the way and how this can create space for new relationships that align with our evolving journey. I also share my strategies for navigating tough days, reframing them as "off days" rather than reflecting my worth. As I recount my own experiences in the online space over the past 12 years, I highlight the significance of playing the long game and remaining anchored in our vision. I remind listeners that success may seem distant, but it is often just around the corner, and the journey is filled with invaluable lessons and growth. Consistency, self-care, and a clear vision are key to navigating the ups and downs of pursuing our dreams.

I reflect on my own journey of writing my solo book, "When She Stopped Asking Why," which I began in 2016 and published in 2017. I share the challenges I faced, including the lack of support and the vulnerability of sharing my story while still living it. This experience led me to create the "Write Your Damn Book" mastermind, aimed at providing the support I wished I had during my writing process. Throughout the episode, I explore the common barriers that prevent aspiring authors from writing their books. Many people feel their stories aren't significant enough, are overwhelmed by the enormity of the task, or struggle with self-doubt and perfectionism. I emphasize that these feelings are universal among writers, regardless of background or experience. To help you overcome these obstacles, I discuss the importance of shifting your mindset and beliefs. Visualization techniques can be powerful tools in this process. I encourage you to imagine your readers holding your book, feeling seen and inspired by your story. By focusing on your "why" and recognizing that you are perfectly designed to help others who were once in your shoes, you can begin to dismantle the barriers holding you back. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to Goal Setting and Writing 00:02:18 - Identifying Barriers to Writing 00:03:42 - Visualizing Success 00:05:08 - The Importance of Beliefs 00:07:06 - The Writing and Publishing Process 00:08:42 - Your Story Matters 00:09:14 - Introducing the 'Behind the Covers' Program Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Download "You Are Supported" Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle HERE Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in March 2025) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

In this episode, I dive into the idea of certainty. It's common to look at others who seem to have it all figured out and believe they possess the confidence we lack. I challenge this notion by asserting that certainty is not something external that can be given to us; rather, it comes from within. I share my personal experience of writing my book during a chaotic time in my life, highlighting how I found certainty amidst uncertainty. Throughout the episode, I encourage you to embrace your feelings of uncertainty as a natural part of growth. I discuss how successful individuals often face challenges that are not visible to the outside world, and how they frame their experiences as opportunities for learning and growth. I emphasize that when we resist uncertainty, we risk stagnation, but by accepting it, we open ourselves up to new possibilities.

As we approach Christmas and the end of the year, I'm excited to dive into a topic that has been transformative in my life: scripting. This technique, which I began exploring about ten years ago, has evolved significantly for me over the years. Initially, I used colourful markers and creative writing to express what I wanted to change in my life, unaware of the deeper principles of NLP and subconscious programming that would later enhance my practice. In this episode, I reflect on my journey with scripting, starting from dissatisfaction in various aspects of my life—business, relationships, health, and income. I share how my first script, a vibrant 10-page document, helped me envision a new reality. I discussed the importance of regularly reading and listening to my scripts, as they initially felt foreign to me. Over time, I learned that our subconscious mind drives 95% of our results, which led me to incorporate subconscious reprogramming and NLP into my scripting practice. This year, I'm thrilled to announce a special scripting workshop masterclass, co-hosted with my dear friend Megan Weir, scheduled for December 30th. This "The Flow Zone Masterclass" masterclass will combine scripting with breathwork and embodiment practices to help participants align with their 2025 vision.

In this Heartbeat of My Business Podcast Series, I am thrilled to welcome my dear friend and strategic performance coach, Meghan Weir. Together, we dive deep into owning your stage and activating your voice. This is episode six of our series on The Heartbeat of My Business. We explore the profound connection between these concepts and how they can empower individuals to express themselves authentically, whether on social media, in public speaking, or everyday life. Meghan shares her journey, recounting a pivotal moment from her university days when she faced a public speaking challenge that left her feeling paralyzed. This experience led her to drop out of that class, but it also set the stage for her eventual transformation. Fast forward to today, and Meghan has not only embraced the online space but has also launched her podcast, she is writing her book, and is stepping into the role of a keynote speaker. Her evolution is a testament to the power of activating one's voice and overcoming subconscious beliefs that hold us back. As we discuss the importance of addressing these limiting beliefs, I emphasize the difference between conscious coaching and the deeper work we do to clear subconscious blocks. Meghan reflects on her journey of overcoming the belief that "nobody wants to hear what I have to say," and how this realization has allowed her to step into her power and share her message with confidence. Throughout the episode, we emphasize the significance of community and support in this journey. We introduce our upcoming HeartWired CEO Mastermind, a unique opportunity for individuals to join us in a year-long container designed to help them grow, expand, and ultimately take their stage. We invite listeners to connect with us, whether through our free networking space, Alliance, or by exploring the Mastermind. This episode is not just about public speaking; it's about finding your voice, owning your truth, and stepping into your power. We hope to inspire our listeners to embrace their unique stages and share their gifts with the world. Join us as we celebrate the journey of activation and empowerment! We announce our exciting new collaboration: the HeartWired CEO mastermind. This 12-month journey will blend both masculine and feminine energies, providing a supportive environment for entrepreneurs to thrive. We invite listeners to reach out with any questions and encourage them to join us in this transformative experience. See the HeartWired CEO Mastermind Trailer.

I was recently a guest on a friend and client's podcast, Renee Walker of the Spiritually Wired Podcast. Renee was an incredible host, and she asked so many great questions about rewriting stories and how NLP has supported me with this work. I knew I wanted to reshare the episode on this show, too. Be sure to tune in as Renée and Marsha chat all about the transformative work that can come from Neuro Linguistic Programming, also known as NLP, and demystifying what they are all about when it comes to breaking through the barriers of your unconscious mind and unhealthy thought patterns. Listen for more on: • There are misconceptions about what NLP does and doesn't do. • Understanding the conscious vs. subconscious mind and why you must get to the root of your beliefs and desires. • Healing and NLP work is not a quick fix but requires time for constant healing and breaking patterns with practice. • Where Marsha's commitment to helping other people become outspoken came from. • The healing and universal feelings found in sharing our stories. • Advice on where to start if you are feeling stuck and hopeless.

In this episode of the podcast, I reflect on the transformative journey of the past year and share a powerful practice for you to try as we approach the end of 2024. It is so important to take a moment to pause and consider what this year has taught you before we rush into setting goals for 2025. This year has taught me that I cannot escape who I am, and it is time to embrace my authentic self rather than conform to external expectations. Throughout the episode, I explore the concept of duality, sharing how I have simultaneously experienced significant growth in my business and personal challenges. I highlight the importance of recognizing that both good and bad can coexist and that we don't need to wait for challenges to resolve before we can experience success. As I reflect on my mantra—"As my business grows, my relationships and health thrive"—I share how I had to confront and rewrite limiting beliefs that held me back. I encourage listeners to create their mantras that reflect what they truly desire, even if they don't believe it yet. Towards the end of the episode, I invite you to write a thank-you letter to yourself for the lessons learned in 2024, regardless of how the year went. It is an enlightening experience.

Anna shared her profound experiences with trauma, healing, and the pivotal moments that led her to explore the role of fascia in our overall health. She explained how her early struggles with psychological and physical issues prompted her to seek deeper understanding and healing methods. After years of therapy and self-discovery, Anna realized that her body was trying to communicate with her, and that the key to her healing lay in movement and the manipulation of fascia. Throughout our conversation, Anna dove into the science of fascia, describing it as a vital connective tissue that organizes and supports our entire body system. She emphasized that fascia is not just a passive structure but an active participant in our physical and emotional well-being.

In this episode, I dive into a topic that resonates deeply, especially as we approach the holiday season—when many of us find ourselves in close quarters with family members we may not always see eye to eye with. The stress and chaos of the holidays can often exacerbate tensions, leading to conflicts that leave us feeling drained and frustrated. Throughout the episode, I encourage listeners to consider their energy in conversations, especially during disagreements. I discuss how our words and thoughts can create a toxic cycle of conflict, likening it to "spewing poison" that ultimately harms ourselves. I share insights from my work with clients, highlighting the importance of recognizing when we are investing energy into trying to change someone who may not be open to it. Our language has the power to either escalate or de-escalate a situation. I provide practical examples of how to shift our language to promote peace and connection, emphasizing that it's okay to disagree and that we don't always have to be on the same page.

As a journalist turned copywriter turned agency owner, Carly thrives on helping people and brands articulate their stories with authenticity and purpose. Her passion lies in guiding entrepreneurs to lead from their intuition and embrace more flow in their growth journey. With a decade of experience scaling her business and expanding her family, Carly is dedicated to creating a business that resonates deeply and feels as fulfilling as it looks on Instagram. Carly initially worked for a social media startup in Toronto while freelancing for various publications. A defining moment came when her boss presented her with an ultimatum: choose between her freelance writing and her job at the startup. This ultimatum ignited Carly's fiery spirit, leading her to realize that she could pursue both her passions and serve small businesses in a meaningful way. Carly recounted the early days of her business, where she started with a blog and gradually built her agency. She shared the transformative experience of bringing her husband, Luke, into the business, emphasizing the importance of their complementary skill sets and the growth they achieved together. As they expanded their family, Carly reflected on how the business has supported them through significant milestones, allowing them to be present parents while helping other business owners thrive. Throughout our conversation, we explored the challenges of entrepreneurship, particularly the need to recognize when to grow a team. Carly shared her insights on hiring slowly and ensuring cultural fit, as well as the evolution of her role from hands-on work to stepping into a CEO position. She candidly discussed the struggles of balancing personal and professional life, especially during a tumultuous period when they faced a devastating house fire. Carly's journey through survival mode revealed the importance of self-care and the necessity of asking for help. We discussed the stigma around vulnerability and how showing up authentically can create deeper connections with others. Carly emphasized that the path of least resistance is to be true to oneself, which resonated with both of us as we reflected on our own experiences in the online space.

In this episode, as we approach the end of 2024, I dive into the often challenging process of self-reflection that many of us face at this time of year. It's common to find ourselves caught in a cycle of overthinking and self-criticism, questioning our achievements and feeling like we haven't done enough. I share my personal experiences of being my own harshest critic and how this mindset can hinder our growth and success. I explore the idea that we tend to be most critical of the very things that showcase our unique gifts and talents. I discuss how this self-doubt can stem from external influences, such as discouraging comments from others, which we internalize and allow to shape our self-perception. By over-analyzing our shortcomings, we create barriers that prevent us from moving forward. I emphasize the importance of shifting our mindset from one of shame and judgment to a more neutral perspective. Neutral language is a tool for self-reflection, encouraging listeners to recognize their patterns of self-criticism and to replace negative self-talk with curiosity and understanding. This shift can help us break free from the fog of doubt and allow us to see our strengths more clearly. I also touch on the significance of recognizing our emotional responses and how they can impact our ability to expand in our personal and professional lives. By focusing on our body and the present moment, we can release overthinking and align ourselves with our true potential. I encourage you to celebrate your achievements from 2024 before setting new goals for 2025. Acknowledging our wins, no matter how small, is crucial for fostering a mindset of abundance and growth. By honouring our journey and recognizing our strengths, we can set ourselves up for success in the coming year. If you are ready to learn these tools, techniques and methods for changing your beliefs, thoughts and stories, I invite you into the OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to Self-Reflection and Criticism 00:02:00 - Understanding Our Gifts and Self-Doubt 00:04:30 - The Impact of Language on Self-Perception 00:07:00 - The Importance of Safety and Trust in Ourselves 00:09:30 - Shifting from Overthinking to Groundedness 00:12:00 - The Power of Language and Self-Awareness 00:14:30 - Celebrating Wins Before Setting New Goals Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Download FREE "You Are Supported" Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle HERE Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in March 2025) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

Together, we dive deep into the intricate relationship between strategy and soul in building a successful business. This is episode three of our series, and we are excited to explore how to craft a multi-six-figure business strategy that resonates with authenticity and purpose. As we dive into the core topic of the episode, we discuss our personal journeys and the challenges we've faced in integrating both the masculine and feminine energies in our businesses. Meghan shares her experience of being highly intuitive and soul-driven, initially resisting the structured systems that she believed would stifle her creativity. I recount my struggle with feeling confined by rigid structures, believing that success could only be achieved through strict strategies. Throughout our conversation, we highlight the importance of balancing these two energies. We discuss how having a solid strategy in place can enhance the flow of creativity and intuition, allowing for a more expansive and fulfilling business experience. We both reflect on how our past experiences in the entrepreneurial space have shaped our understanding of this balance, and how we've learned to embrace both the structure and the flow. We also touch on the significance of nervous system regulation in sustaining growth. Megan emphasizes that without a regulated nervous system, entrepreneurs may experience burnout and anxiety, leading to a rollercoaster of results. We share insights on how to cultivate a sense of safety and readiness for expansion, allowing for a more grounded approach to business growth.

In this episode, I am speaking with Money Coach Hanna Bier who works with ambitious women from around the world to recreate their relationship with money from the inside out and step into a world of financial overflow. Hanna is known as the founder of Money Bliss and the author of her new book, Wealth From Within, Hanna has led tens of thousands of private and group sessions and has helped hundreds upon hundreds of clients join her in living blissfully and abundantly. Hanna shared her personal story, revealing that her relationship with money was initially fraught with anxiety and fear. Despite being a successful business owner for over a decade, she described feeling overwhelmed by the online space and the emotional whiplash it often brings. Her journey into understanding money began out of necessity during her studies in international fashion management, where she struggled with anxiety and depression. This led her to seek emotional healing tools, which ultimately transformed her relationship with money. We delved into the concept of family constellation therapy, a modality that Hanna uses to address the transgenerational patterns affecting our financial beliefs. She explained how her family's history, particularly the trauma experienced by her grandparents during World War II, influenced her fears about money. Through this therapy, she was able to release these inherited beliefs and embrace a healthier relationship with money, which she describes as nourishing and supportive. Throughout the episode, we discussed the challenges many people face when receiving love and abundance. Hanna shared her insights on how societal conditioning often leads us to feel unworthy of receiving, and she provided practical tips for overcoming this barrier. One key takeaway was the importance of using "receiving language"—a simple yet effective way to practice gratitude and acceptance in our daily lives.

In this episode, I reflect on the whirlwind of November and the profound journey I've experienced over the past seven years since the release of my book, "When She Stopped Asking Why." As we approach the end of 2024, I find myself in a space of both humility and challenge, grappling with personal issues that have led me to moments of burnout. Despite these struggles, I take a moment to celebrate the anniversary of my book, recognizing the growth and changes I've undergone since its release. I dive into the essence of my book, which emerged from a desire to shift my perspective on my life experiences. The title itself encapsulates a pivotal moment in my journey—moving away from victimhood and embracing the lessons learned from my past. I share the backstory of writing the book during a tumultuous time, emphasizing that it was more than just a project; it was a means of processing my emotions and experiences. Throughout the episode, I discuss the challenges of becoming an author, the pressure I placed on myself, and the healing that unfolded as I shared my story. I highlight the importance of vulnerability in writing and the necessity of overcoming the fear of judgment from others. I encourage listeners to recognize that their stories matter and can significantly impact others who may be struggling with similar challenges. As I reflect on my journey, I acknowledge the mistakes made along the way, including the editing process that revealed errors even at the last minute. However, I emphasize that perfection is not the goal; it's about sharing our authentic selves and the lessons we've learned. I invite listeners to celebrate their past selves and the growth they've achieved, even amidst ongoing challenges. Looking ahead, I express my excitement for the future and the work I am doing to help others share their stories. I announce an upcoming audio-based program that will guide aspiring authors through the process of writing and publishing their books, aiming to demystify the journey and empower them to embrace their voices.

We kick off the episode by sharing our personal experiences and the significance of being in spaces that inspire us to think bigger. The core theme of the episode is release, expansion, and rise. We both share our personal journeys that led us to this work.

Throughout the episode, we emphasize the power of subconscious change work, particularly through modalities like Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT) and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). We explain how these tools can help individuals break free from limiting beliefs and create lasting change. Meghan shares her experiences with clients who have experienced profound shifts in just a few sessions, illustrating the effectiveness of this work.

In this episode, I am thrilled to welcome back Alejandra Brady, a feng shui expert, interior and biophilic designer, bestselling author, and crystal healer. Our conversation dives deep into the importance of creating a harmonious space as we approach the end of the year, especially in light of the recent challenges Alejandra faced with back-to-back hurricanes in Tampa, Florida. As we transition into the holiday season, we discuss the significance of gift-giving and how it can often lead to clutter. Alejandra advocates for a more mindful approach to gifting, suggesting that we focus on quality over quantity. We also explore practical tips for decluttering and purging our spaces before the new year. Alejandra encourages listeners to clear out stagnant energy by decluttering decorations and items that no longer serve them. She provides actionable steps for cleaning and refreshing our homes, including the importance of clearing out old food from pantries and refrigerators, as well as checking the front door for welcoming energy. Throughout the episode, Alejandra emphasizes the importance of maintaining positive energy in our homes, especially during the busy holiday season.

In this episode, I dive into the transformative power of changing our perspectives, particularly through the lens of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP). I share a realization I had recently: without altering our perspective, we cannot see our stories or circumstances in a new light. This episode is dedicated to exploring how shifting our viewpoint can unlock new opportunities for growth, healing, and self-discovery. I begin by discussing the essence of NLP, which is fundamentally about understanding our mind's patterns and recognizing our blind spots. Our subconscious mind often operates on autopilot, replaying past experiences and limiting beliefs that keep us stuck in a comfort zone, even if that zone is uncomfortable. I emphasize the importance of reprogramming our inner narrative to change how we perceive our experiences and, ultimately, our reality. One of the key techniques I introduce is subconscious timeline work. I explain how our subconscious does not recognize time, which means we can revisit past experiences and reframe them to create a more empowering narrative. By visualizing our future as if it has already happened, we can familiarize our subconscious with success and reduce the fear associated with pursuing new opportunities. I also introduce the concept of perceptual positions, using the metaphor of watching a movie. By changing our viewpoint—whether as an observer in a theatre or as a distant camera operator—we can detach from the emotional intensity of our experiences. This shift allows us to gain insights and empathy, reducing stress and opening up new solutions that were previously hidden by our emotional responses. Additionally, I discuss the technique of reframing, which involves changing the frame around our experiences to see them from a different angle. This simple yet powerful tool can transform obstacles into stepping stones, helping us to let go of limiting beliefs and embrace endless possibilities. If you are ready to learn these tools, techniques and methods for changing your beliefs, thoughts and stories, I invite you into the OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification.

In this Heartbeat of My Business Podcast Series, I am thrilled to welcome my dear friend and strategic performance coach, Meghan Weir. Together, we dive deep into the fascinating topic of balancing masculine structure with feminine flow in business. This is the first episode of our 6 Part Podcast Series for the HeartWired CEO Mastermind. Our conversation is rich with insights and personal experiences, making it a must-listen for entrepreneurs seeking to harmonize these energies in their work. We kick off the episode by introducing ourselves and sharing our backgrounds. Meghan explains her passion for helping entrepreneurs transition from anxiety to being anchored, confident, and clear in their business pursuits. She emphasizes the importance of embodying the principles she teaches, which stems from her journey of discovering the missing pieces in her business strategy. Reflecting on our shared experiences, we reminisce about meeting in an online mastermind over four years ago. Both of us entered that space feeling overwhelmed and uncertain, despite the wealth of knowledge available. We discuss the lack of intimacy in large group settings and how it can leave participants feeling ungrounded, even when learning valuable skills. I share my journey as an NLP trainer and how I help individuals reprogram their thoughts and beliefs. We both acknowledge the challenges we faced during the pandemic, which forced us to pivot our businesses online. Meghan and I explored the idea that while we learned a lot from our mastermind experience, we were both craving a deeper connection and understanding of how to integrate feminine energy into our work. Meghan explains the concept of sealing the cracks in our foundational beliefs, and how limiting beliefs and past traumas can hinder our growth. We discuss the importance of subconscious change work and somatic release to unlock our true potential. I share my business and personal transformation over the past year, highlighting how I have shifted from a place of fear and anxiety to one of empowerment and creativity. Throughout the episode, we emphasize the significance of combining masculine structure with feminine flow. We discuss how rigid structures can stifle creativity and how allowing space for intuition and emotional expression can lead to greater success in business. Meghan and I both reflect on our growth and the importance of community and support in our journeys. Towards the end of the episode, we announce our exciting new collaboration: the HeartWired CEO mastermind. This 12-month journey will blend both masculine and feminine energies, providing a supportive environment for entrepreneurs to thrive. We invite listeners to reach out with any questions and encourage them to join us in this transformative experience. See the HeartWired CEO Mastermind Trailer.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of welcoming Avalon Moans, a talented photographer specializing in helping female small business owners become the confident face of their brands. Our conversation began with a nostalgic reflection on our first meeting at a networking event, where I encouraged Avalon to share her story and record it. This moment marked a significant turning point for her, as it helped her gain confidence in articulating her message. Avalon shared her transformative journey, highlighting how stepping out of her comfort zone by volunteering at networking events opened doors to a supportive community of entrepreneurs. We discussed the importance of building connections and how offering services for free can lead to invaluable experiences and relationships. Avalon emphasized that trusting your intuition, even when others advise against it, can lead to incredible opportunities. As we delved deeper into Avalon's work, she explained her unique approach to photography, which goes beyond aesthetics. She focuses on helping her clients embody their future selves through intentional and powerful imagery. Avalon believes that photography can serve as a manifestation tool, allowing clients to visualize and step into the business owners they aspire to be. We also touched on Avalon's personal growth, discussing her past struggles with anxiety and self-doubt. She shared a poignant story about overcoming her fear of driving on the highway, which ultimately led her to confront deeper beliefs about her self-worth and ability to care for herself. This revelation was a powerful reminder of the importance of addressing the root causes of our fears and limiting beliefs. As we wrapped up our conversation, Avalon expressed her vision for the future, including the desire to expand her photography business into a full-service brand agency. She aims to create workshops and spaces that foster community and support for fellow entrepreneurs. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of personal growth, the power of storytelling, and the transformative impact of stepping into one's authentic self. Avalon's journey is an inspiring reminder that our stories can change at any moment, and with the right support and mindset, we can achieve our dreams.

In this episode, I dive deep into the significance of our thoughts and how they shape our reality. I emphasize the importance of owning our thoughts and stories, explaining that they will own us if we don't take control. I discuss the concept that we cannot outthink how our bodies feel, highlighting the disconnect many experiences between our conscious thoughts and subconscious emotions. I encourage listeners to recognize when fear or anxiety arises and to understand that these feelings are often rooted in past experiences and trapped emotions. Throughout the episode, I stress the necessity of tuning into our bodies to release these stuck emotions, which can hinder our ability to create change and connect with others. I share insights on maintaining a regulated nervous system, which is crucial for holding space for ourselves and others on stage or in everyday conversations. I also touch on my experiences as a speaker, illustrating how being in tune with my emotions allowed me to connect more authentically with my audience. I encourage listeners to find their own "stage" in daily interactions and to practice being present and empathetic in their conversations. Finally, I share a resource for listeners—a free audio subliminal and hypnosis guide designed to help connect with their higher selves below in the show notes.

In this quick Friday episode, I dive into the art of handling comments like a pro, whether they come from in-person interactions or the online world. I recount a recent experience with a client who was struggling with negative online comments. It became clear that she was internalizing these remarks, interpreting them as personal attacks, even when they weren't directed at her. I emphasize the importance of recognizing that comments often stem from the speaker's own perspective and experiences, not necessarily reflecting our worth or abilities. I outline several techniques for handling comments effectively: Reframe for Understanding; Neutral Acknowledgment; Clarifying Questions; and Pattern Interrupt: I stress the power of language in shaping our responses and maintaining our personal power. By mastering these techniques, we can navigate comments with confidence and ease, ensuring that we focus our energy on those who truly deserve our attention. I also highlight the differences between handling comments in person versus online, noting that people often feel emboldened to say things online that they wouldn't say face-to-face. I encourage listeners to set boundaries and protect their energy by blocking or deleting unconstructive comments. As I wrap up the episode, I stress the power of language in shaping our responses and maintaining our personal power. By mastering these techniques, we can navigate comments with confidence and ease, ensuring that we focus our energy on those who truly deserve our attention.

In this episode, I dive deep into the transformative journey of balancing masculine and feminine energies, particularly in building a successful business. Reflecting on my past experiences, I share how I spent much of my life operating solely in masculine energy—characterized by grit, tenacity, and a relentless push for results. While these traits are undeniably important, I realized that they often led me to cycles of burnout and disconnection from my true self. I recount my recent experience as a keynote speaker at the High Vibe Summit, where I faced personal challenges just days before the event. Despite feeling overwhelmed, I was determined to connect with the 145 women in attendance through a group hypnosis session aimed at helping them step into their highest selves. This episode highlights the evolution of my speaking style—from a rigid, memorized approach to one that embraces flexibility and flow. A pivotal moment occurred just before I took the stage. I drew a card that read "forgiveness." This card resonated deeply with me, prompting an emotional release that allowed me to connect authentically with the audience. I discuss how this experience taught me the importance of being present and open to the unexpected rather than clinging to a strict plan. Throughout the episode, I explore the benefits and limitations of both masculine and feminine approaches. The masculine energy provides structure, clarity, and accountability, while the feminine energy fosters creativity, intuition, and connection. A successful business requires a harmonious blend of both energies, allowing growth and transformation. I also share how embracing my feminine energy has led to significant personal and professional growth, including a remarkable increase in my business success. By letting go of the need for control and anchoring into trust, I have opened myself up to new opportunities and deeper connections with my audience. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:12 - Masculine vs. Feminine Energy 00:00:46 - Keynote Speaker Experience 00:02:00 - The Importance of Connection 00:03:24 - Balancing Masculine and Feminine Energy 00:05:00 - Embracing Feminine Energy 00:06:14 - The Power of Intuition 00:08:00 - The Impact of Forgiveness 00:09:58 - Audience Connection and Transformation 00:10:40 - The Shift in Business Growth 00:11:22 - Combining Strategies and Intuition 00:12:26 - Encouragement to Embrace Resistance 00:13:40 - Resources for Deeper Work 00:14:42 - Conclusion and Gratitude Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Download FREE "You Are Supported" Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle HERE Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in March 2025) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

In this episode, I explore a topic that many of us can relate to: the feeling that despite our best efforts, nothing is working in our lives. I share insights from a recent conversation with a client, as well as my own experiences, to explore the question: What do you do when it feels like everything is happening but nothing is happening? I begin by encouraging listeners to clarify what they mean when they say, "Nothing is working." Is it a lack of progress or the absence of desired results? I emphasize the importance of specificity in our goals and definitions of success. Next, I discuss the significance of defining success on your own terms. I share my mantra that as my business grows, my relationships and health also thrive. This holistic view of success is essential for maintaining balance and fulfillment in life. I also touch on the concept of controlling the controllables. It's easy to get overwhelmed by everything that seems to be going wrong, but we can regain a sense of agency and direction by identifying what we can control and focusing on those aspects.

In this episode, we speak with Martine Cohen, the published author and former attorney who recently launched her book No More Layers. Martine grew up in Montreal and attended McGill University, earning degrees in civil law and common law. She has been an attorney for over 25 years and loves everything strategy. She spent the first few years of her career in litigation before entering the corporate world, advising and consulting for growth companies. Back in 2016, Martine's world came crashing down after a car accident that left her with a severe concussion. It was a pivotal turning point in her life. That catapulted her onto an extraordinary journey of profound awareness, self-discovery, and freedom. In the process, she gained a deep and unique understanding of the intricacies of the brain, its fears, and protective layers, which ultimately led her to successfully heal herself energetically – from the inside out. As the Founder of No More Layers, Martine draws on her strategic acumen and transformative approach to guide her clients to become the leaders of their own lives and experience success from the inside out. She works privately with individuals, entrepreneurs, and professionals as an executive leadership consultant, life strategies coach, and mentor. She is also an inspirational speaker on conscious communication, mindset shifts, and life strategies. Martine holds a teaching diploma and a life coach certification and has trained in various healing and energy modalities. When she is not writing or speaking, Martine spends time with loved ones, is in nature, volunteers, practices yoga, meditates, and enjoys cappuccinos from around the world.

In this episode, I explore the profound connection between our higher selves and the intuitive downloads we receive throughout our lives. As I prepare to speak at a High-Vibe summit, I know I want to share my personal beliefs about stepping into our highest selves and the transformative power they hold for life and business. I begin by discussing the concept of intuitive downloads—those sudden, often inexplicable urges to pursue a new idea or project. These downloads come from our higher selves, guiding us toward our true path, even when our conscious minds may resist due to fear or self-doubt. I reflect on my own journey, particularly the creation of my program, Outspoken, which emerged from a powerful, intuitive nudge despite the lack of logical reasoning. Throughout the episode, I share a deeply personal story from my past, recounting my health struggles and the pivotal moment when I received a clear message from my higher self urging me to fight for a hysterectomy. This experience solidified my belief that our higher selves always guide us, providing insights that can lead to life-changing decisions. I invite you to embrace their higher selves, trust the guidance they receive, and take actionable steps toward their goals. I also share a free hypnosis and audio bundle to help individuals connect with their higher selves and feel supported on their journey.

In this episode, we explore the powerful concept of readiness and the feelings that arise when we pursue our goals, mainly when they manifest quickly. Marsha works closely with entrepreneurs at various stages of their journeys and shares personal experiences and reflections on the emotional road of ambition and growth. We begin by addressing a common scenario: many aspiring business owners set lofty goals, such as attracting clients or speaking on stages, but when they envision achieving these goals overnight, they often feel a wave of panic. This reaction highlights a disconnect between their aspirations and their self-perception. I encourage listeners to confront this fear by asking themselves how they would feel if their dreams came true today. The typical response is a sense of unpreparedness, which signals that they may need to grow into someone capable of holding that success. Throughout the episode, I emphasize training our subconscious minds to embrace opportunities rather than retreating in fear. I discuss the overwhelming nature of rapid success and the anxiety accompanying it, particularly the fear of losing what we've gained. I challenge listeners to shift their focus from what they fear to what they desire, reinforcing that our thoughts shape our reality.

In this episode, I am thrilled to welcome Renee Walker, a Mindset & Spiritual Teacher, Business Mentor & Speaker, and the podcast host of "Spiritually Wired." Our conversation dives deep into the intersection of spirituality, mindset, and personal growth, exploring how these elements can transform our lives and businesses. Renee shares her journey of self-discovery, which began over twenty years ago when she was prompted to reflect on her identity beyond the roles she played as a mother and professional. This pivotal moment ignited her spiritual journey, leading her to understand that our authentic essence is connected to a higher power, energy, or consciousness. We discuss how spirituality and mindset are intertwined, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and addressing the fears and subconscious programming that often hold us back. We touch on the significance of feeling rather than just thinking and the necessity of tuning into our bodies to understand the subtle messages of our subconscious. Renee highlights her revelations about fear, explaining how it can serve as a protective mechanism rather than a villain. We can foster personal growth and transformation by embracing fear and showing up despite discomfort. As we discuss the launch of her podcast, "Spiritually Wired," Renee expresses her excitement about creating a space for deeper conversations around spirituality, mindset, and wellness. She emphasizes the importance of authenticity and connection, encouraging listeners to embrace their unique paths and seek out like-minded individuals.

In this episode, Marsha shares the transformative strategies that can significantly enhance how you set and achieve your goals. Over the years, she's discovered powerful techniques that have catapulted her results, and she's excited to share these two techniques with you in this episode today. Scriptwriting involves crafting narratives as if your goals are already accomplished. When writing your scripts, this includes all aspects of your life—health, relationships, finances, and personal space. This practice has allowed her to envision and feel empowered to pursue what she wants. Next, she dives into subconscious reprogramming and neurolinguistic programming (NLP). As an NLP trainer, she explains how language shapes our thoughts and beliefs. She highlights the staggering number of thoughts we have daily, many of which are negative and repetitive. She stresses the need for conscious awareness and the active work required to shift your thought patterns to combat this. Then comes the powerful combination of script writing and NLP techniques to train your brain to feel safe pursuing your desires. Safety is paramount for your subconscious mind; if you don't feel safe, you may sabotage or hesitate to take action. I provide examples of how to identify limiting beliefs and rewrite them in a more empowering way. This is how you can access your day in life with your new script: 1. Open your notes app and write a description of everything your dream life has and who your future self is. There are no limits. Have fun with this! The more descriptive, the better. Let your imagination run wild. GO BIG. Your imagination powers this, but the tech organizes it. 2. Now write in ChatGpt: Based on this description, tell me a story of a day in my dream life when I am my future self, who already has it all. (Copy and paste your description from your notes.)

In this episode of our podcast, I dive deep into the concept of expansion in our lives, businesses, and relationships. As we talk about the theme of expansion, I share the need to be mindful of the visions we hold for ourselves. In a world dominated by social media, it's easy to fall into the trap of comparing our journeys to the seemingly perfect lives of others. I remind listeners that behind every success story lies a messy process filled with hard work, setbacks, and lessons learned. It's crucial to recognize that the glamorous images we see often omit the struggles and failures that are part of the journey. I share my own experiences as I navigate the release of our first published book through Outspoken Publishing. This process has been anything but easy, filled with long hours of editing and collaboration. The path to expansion is often messy and requires perseverance. It's essential to embrace the messiness and understand that it's a natural part of growth. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:44 - The Reality of Expansion 00:01:39 - The Messy Journey 00:02:53 - The Role of Environment 00:04:06 - Willpower vs. Environment 00:05:31 - Building a Supportive Environment 00:06:46 - Realism in Vision 00:07:17 - Learning from Challenges 00:08:10 - Safety in Expansion Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in September 2024) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

In this episode, I spoke with Integrative Nutrition and Health Coach Rose Yodzio. Rose is an integrative health and nutrition coach who discusses the often-overlooked topics of menopause and perimenopause. She shared her journey and expertise in helping women navigate this transformative phase of life. The conversation delved into the common symptoms experienced during perimenopause and menopause, shedding light on lesser-known issues like joint pain, anxiety, and dry skin, all linked to hormonal changes. Rose emphasized the importance of understanding the role of hormones like cortisol and insulin in women's well-being as they age. We explored the impact of stress on cortisol levels and how it can lead to adrenal fatigue, which can affect sleep, energy levels, and overall health. Rose highlighted the significance of balancing minerals and optimizing nutrition to support hormone balance and alleviate symptoms. The discussion also discussed the role of lifestyle factors, such as diet, exercise, and stress management, in managing menopausal symptoms. Rose emphasized the importance of personalized approaches, including adequate protein intake, walking, and strength training, to support women's health during this phase. Furthermore, we discussed the effects of alcohol on menopausal women and the importance of mindful consumption to support overall health and hormone balance. Rose shared insights on the benefits of hair tissue mineral analysis in understanding metabolic function and hormone balance, providing valuable insights for women seeking holistic approaches to their health.

In this episode, I take you on a journey through my recent trip to Finland, a country renowned for being the happiest place in the world for five consecutive years. I share my experiences and observations, mainly focusing on the cultural nuances I encountered, such as the surprising lack of eye contact among the locals and the stories behind that. Before our trip, a friend warned us that Finns tend to avoid eye contact, which struck me as odd given the country's reputation for happiness. However, I soon discovered that making eye contact often led to people looking away, and engaging in deeper conversations revealed the warmth and beauty of the Finnish people. This prompted me to explore the historical context behind this behaviour, leading to a fascinating discussion with our shuttle driver. Throughout the episode, I encourage listeners to examine their stories and consider whether these narratives are truly theirs to carry. I emphasize the importance of recognizing and releasing old stories that no longer serve us, allowing space for new possibilities and growth. To support listeners in their journey of self-discovery and story transformation, I introduce my program, "The Stories We Tell Ourselves," which offers tools like hypnosis, subliminals, and EFT tapping to help release stuck emotions and reshape personal narratives. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to Finland and Eye Contact 00:01:06 - Cultural Differences in Social Interactions 00:02:50 - Historical Context of Finland's Social Norms 00:04:38 - Conversations with the Shuttle Driver 00:06:56 - Rovaniemi's Unique Architecture and History 00:08:40 - Carrying Stories That Aren't Ours 00:09:54 - Experiencing Finnish Saunas 00:11:10 - Releasing Old Stories and Moving Forward 00:12:02 - Conclusion and Program Promotion Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in September 2024) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

In this episode, I explore the concept of our thoughts and the subconscious mind, highlighting that we have 60,000 to 80,000 thoughts a day, with a significant portion being negative and repetitive. I recently discussed this concept with a client who was stuck in a loop of past mistakes and regrets. I challenge listeners to consider how much of their day is spent living in the past and ask whether they truly want to create a different future. I emphasize the importance of learning from our past without allowing it to define us or become a place where we dwell. Instead, I encourage finding a space of neutrality where we can process our experiences and make informed decisions moving forward. Throughout the episode, I share personal anecdotes and insights, including a powerful quote from Lisa Nichols about not building a home in the valleys of our past decisions. To create change, it is essential to reflect on our experiences. We must not let them anchor us down. Instead, we should view them as lessons that prepare us for the work we are meant to do in this life.

In this episode, I am sharing the concept of the "cringe ladder," a metaphor I recently encountered that perfectly describes the journey we all go through when we start sharing our authentic selves with the world. I reflect on my own experiences, particularly from around 2013 and 2014, when I felt isolated and struggled to connect with others amidst the curated perfection of social media. My journey began with raw and unfiltered Facebook Lives after hot yoga, where I embraced the messiness of being honest and authentic. This episode emphasizes the importance of starting, even when you feel unprepared or unsure of your voice. Learn to embrace your cringe ladders, recognizing that the initial awkwardness is necessary for growth. Throughout the episode, I discuss the significance of messy action and the need to build what I call the "I don't give a shit muscle." This muscle helps us navigate criticism and self-doubt, allowing us to focus on the positive feedback and connections we create. I highlight that confidence is not innate but something we can cultivate through action and experience. The anxiety often stems from unaddressed fear and the importance of moving through that fear to build new beliefs about ourselves. By sharing my journey and lessons, I aim to inspire listeners to celebrate their progress and embrace their authentic selves without judgment. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to the Cringe Ladder 00:01:00 - Starting Messy: The Importance of Authenticity 00:03:00 - Building Confidence Through Action 00:05:00 - Feeding the Right Beliefs: Choosing Your Focus 00:07:00 - The Role of Fear and Anxiety in Growth 00:09:00 - Celebrating Your Journey: Embracing Imperfection 00:10:30 - Letters to My Younger Self: Acknowledging Growth 00:11:30 - Invitation to Connect and Celebrate Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in September 2024) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

In this episode, I dive into a topic that has been weighing heavily on my heart: the importance of keeping our hearts open to receive. I share my journey of learning how a closed heart, often shielded by emotional armour, can prevent us from fully experiencing life and connecting with others. To protect ourselves from past hurts, judgments, and fears, we inadvertently block not only negative but also positive emotions. This self-imposed limitation restricts our ability to express our true selves and to be seen by others. I emphasize that when we wear this armour, we are not just protecting ourselves but also missing out on the richness of life and the connections that come from vulnerability. Throughout the episode, I highlight the paradox of being kind-hearted yet closed-hearted. Many people overcompensate for their closed-off feelings by excessively giving excessively to others, which can distract them from their emotional needs. I stress that giving and receiving are two sides of the same coin, and to truly experience the joy of giving, we must also allow ourselves to receive. I share practical strategies for opening our hearts, such as practicing gratitude, self-care, and vulnerability. I encourage listeners to recognize that they are not their thoughts or emotions but rather the observers of these feelings. By normalizing our emotions and allowing ourselves to feel them without judgment, we can dismantle the barriers we've built around our hearts. HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to the Heart's Role in Receiving 00:01:00 - The Impact of a Closed Heart 00:02:30 - The Cycle of Emotions and Self-Protection 00:04:00 - The Connection Between Giving and Receiving 00:05:30 - The Challenge of Accepting Compliments 00:07:00 - Practicing the Art of Receiving 00:09:30 - Daily Practices to Open the Heart 00:11:00 - The Importance of Gratitude and Vulnerability 00:12:30 - The Interplay of Masculine and Feminine in Business 00:13:30 - Conclusion: Embracing the Power of Receiving Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in September 2024) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.

In this episode, we speak with Spiritual Life Coach Kristina Gauthier. Kristina's early years were far from picture-perfect; she was born into a family with a colossal amount of trauma on both her mother's and father's sides. Throughout Kristina's life, her late mother struggled with her drug addiction, and her dad is a well-known Hell Angel. After years of dating abusive men, struggling with her own drug addiction, and feeling profoundly insecure and unworthy of love or life, she chose to invest in herself and heal. In 2017, Kristina's late sister died of a fentanyl overdose, and that's when everything shifted for her. Despite where Kristina came from, she chose to lean into her darkness till she found her light and rose above the ashes, making her the first to break the cycle within her lineage. Not only is Kristina the first to break the cycle, but she's now rewriting her lineage by showing up for herself and her late sisters' two children differently than anyone has done before. Kristina is proof that regardless of what cards you were dealt with when you choose to come home to yourself and heal your trauma, you, too, can turn your life around and create the life you've always desired. From losing her mother and sister to taking on the role of a full-time guardian for her niece, Kristina navigated immense challenges with grace and determination. She highlighted the importance of setting boundaries, prioritizing self-care, and choosing healing over destructive coping mechanisms. Kristina's journey to sobriety and self-empowerment was a central theme in the episode, showcasing her unwavering commitment to personal growth and transformation. She shared her breathwork practices, Kundalini meditation, and journaling as tools for regulating her emotions and maintaining inner peace.

In today's episode, we dive deep into the question, "Who will you be today?" This episode was inspired by a journal prompt that made me pause and reflect on how we often focus on who we want to be when everything is going smoothly, but what about when things aren't going great? Who do you want to be when things are not going smoothly, when they are not in flow or alignment, and when it feels like it's challenge after challenge? I've learned to navigate those moments by asking myself who I want to be in those difficult times. It's about shifting our perspective from blaming others or ourselves to focusing on what we can control and how we can show up as our best selves. I challenge the idea of only choosing things within alignment and share how misalignment has taught me valuable lessons about what I truly want and need. I also emphasize recognizing our worthiness regardless of external circumstances, whether we thrive or face obstacles. Throughout the episode, I encourage listeners to ask themselves, "Who are you going to be today?" and to give themselves grace, compassion, and permission to ask for help when needed. It's about embracing the journey of growth, learning from challenges, and showing up as the best version of ourselves no matter what life throws our way.

In this podcast episode, I dive into the transformative power of questioning our thoughts and beliefs. I emphasize that the quality of our lives is primarily determined by the questions we ask ourselves. Instead of succumbing to negative statements like "Why is this happening to me?" or "This is not fair," I encourage listeners to shift their mindset by asking empowering questions, such as "What if it's all possible?" I share a personal story about my recent trip to Finland, where my husband competed in the World Olympic Lifting Championships and earned a silver medal. This experience was filled with uncertainty and challenges even to get there. I repeatedly reminded myself that it would all work out in the most incredible way possible. This mindset shift allowed me to focus on the potential for success rather than the fear of failure. Throughout the episode, I discuss how our subconscious minds are wired to look for what could go wrong, especially when we embark on new ventures. I illustrate this with examples, such as the fears arising before speaking in public or sharing vulnerable content online. I emphasize the importance of countering these fears with positive possibilities, asking ourselves, "What if it goes incredibly well?" Our minds need repetition to seek out evidence of success rather than failure. It is so important to surround ourselves with proof that our dreams are attainable.

Welcome to today's episode, where I enjoyed speaking with Dr. Melissa Robinson-Weinmiller, an EQ via Empathy Trainer. In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Melissa shared her journey from classical musician to leadership coach, focusing on emotional intelligence through the lens of empathy. Dr. Melissa explained the concepts of empathy and emotional intelligence, highlighting the importance of understanding and controlling one's emotions while also tuning into the feelings of others. She emphasized that empathy is not about taking responsibility for others' emotions but connecting on a human level without judgment. We delved into the difference between empathy and sympathy, with Dr. Melissa explaining how judgment is a critical factor that differentiates the two. She shared how societal views and cultural norms often discourage empathy, leading to a lack of connection and understanding in relationships and workplaces. The conversation took a personal turn as Dr. Melissa shared her own experience of facing assault in the workplace and the subsequent challenges she encountered in speaking up and seeking support. This pivotal moment it led her to delve deeper into the importance of empathy in leadership and societal interactions. Dr. Melissa discussed her upcoming book, "The Empathic Leader," exploring how empathy and emotional intelligence can transform leadership, leading to better profit, productivity, and innovation. She shared a case study of a healthcare facility director who implemented empathy-driven leadership practices, improving employee satisfaction, productivity, and innovation.
