As Covid-19 restrictions begin to ease, it's important to take a moment to reflect on what this taught us, allow it to highlight what is important to us and also to decide what we want our new normal to be.

It is going to start with unlearning what you know and creating the future you want to live in to. Here's to a new normal we can all enjoy and thrive in.

Where are you 'NOT'' making a conscious decision? Which decisions in your life and business have fallen into the "that's just the way it is" or "it's out of my control" basket? Every day we've stopped making conscious decisions and have taken certain results at face value. We've stopped challenging ourselves to re-decide what we want for our lives and for our businesses. Powerful and conscious decisions support our growth and innovation in how we do business and how we show up in our lives. A decision is to cut off other options, to go all in, yet often we're not consciously deciding what we want for our lives and we just go about life the same way we did it yesterday.

Practiced thought patterns that spiral out of control can keep us procrastinating or stuck in a place of fear, worrying about all the what ifs: What if this happened What if I hadn’t done this, what if I had done this, what if this goes wrong What if it’s a flop, what if I’m judged, what if I’m seen as a failure again When you’ve processed your emotions in a healthy way there is no built up resistance to emotions What if those anxious feelings we were experiencing was a form of self protection and a call for self love? What if you viewed your anxiety with self love and compassion instead of Self judgement and anger?

The world is resetting. We’re taking the much needed time out to recharge and reevaluate what is important. As a human race we have lost our way, we so busy trying to achieve the next thing and the next thing, needing to buy every material belonging that we think will make us feel better, for more status or significance. We have lost track of what is important and this pandemic is helping us hit the reset button. For too long we have been leading with our heads So far out of alignment with our heart and what’s important Looking outside of ourselves for the answers Ignoring our feelings and sweeping our problems under the rug The ego’s identity has been so caught up in creating an “image” of it’s 201Cself that makes you feel “worthy” in the world, whereas all it has been creating is more disconnection. Disconnection with our selves, disconnection with our inner world and disconnection with faith and disconnection with a higher power. We’ve lost connection with our own inner guidance and lost our connection with hearts. You are not going to be who you are after this, it’s time to reevaluate what’s important and decide who you want to be after all this is said and done. We’ve been so far out of alignment for too long that this situation is shining a light on what we need to do to get back into alignment and lead with heart. Today’s episode is all about resetting from the old paradigm and deciding to lead from the heart once all of this is said and done.

This is an emotional time, with so much fear and uncertainty going on in the world, the way we manage our emotions is being highlighted. If we are ones to bypass or avoid our emotions, we are left feeling low, exhausted and highly emotional. Otherwise we resort to buffering to avoid our emotions through alcohol, eating, bingeing on Netflix and anything excessive. Today on the podcast I want you to give yourself a break. If you aren't feeling emotional right now, I would be worried about you. Take this time to process your emotions in a healthy way rather than bypass or buffer. Here I take you through how to do that and how to be aware when you're buffering or bypassing.

Throughout times of crisis businesses can thrive and industry’s continue to thrive, don’t let times of crisis stop you from showing up and making offers to your potential clients.

Or maybe you're struggling to figure out what you should be charging, or wanting to put your prices up, and wanting to feel less guilty about it? Today on the podcast I break down how to charge what your worth, what you need to consider when setting your prices and what you need to decide when creating your prices that will stop you feeling guilty. I then unpack the reason we may feel guilt in this situation and unpack the purpose of guilt and how to charge what you're worth and not feel guilty.

Seeing money as it really is, as an energy and a resource and by unwinding its role in our self-worth, success & happiness, it enables us to see that money is just a tool that supports us to create a fulfilling and purposeful life.

Have you ever felt frustrated and annoyed at not being further along on your journey? It's an uncomfortable feeling and shoulding all over yourself isn't helping is it? It can be very a very frustrating and confusing time, but it's a very important phase that you cannot skip over. You must go through it and dissect the lessons that this time is gifting you. It's time to stop focusing on the future, bring awareness to where you are right now and why. Let's dive into why this is so important and how to move through it.

Have you ever wanted someone else to make a change in their lives? Wanted them to be better or do better? Yeah me too, but telling them how to change, is not the best course of action. We must learn to lead by example and give them permission through our actions not our words. Do you worry about the tall poppy syndrome as you strive for success? One of the things I would love to see changed in my lifetime is the Tall Poppy Syndrome in Australia. We don't need it anymore, it does not support our evolution or expansion and it's time to speak up and change this cultural phenomenon for good. And it starts with us. We must be the change we want to see. We must first celebrate others instead of judging them or tearing them down as they thrive, we must speak up when others are tearing another successful person down and we must be confident in celebrating ourselves fully. Want something to change, then let's first change ourselves.

To make progress something has to change. A change in our behaviour, our actions, our thoughts and our needs. The reason we resist change is that it's uncomfortable. We feel resistance to doing something different, something unfamiliar, even though it's what we need to get a different result. What if that resistance wasn't because of fear? What if it was because of our conditioning and our core needs? What if what we truly needed was to balance the way we meet our needs in a more resourceful way. Today's episode is all about understanding our core needs and how the resistance we feel is present because we're so used to the behaviour we use to fulfill our needs, and doing something different feels unnatural - hence the resistance. Elevate Intensive For more information regarding the 4-week intensive email me at [email protected]

What or who triggers you? The resistance you feel is indicating that there is some healing or resolution that needs to happen internally for you to be able to move forward. What you resist, persists and if you don't deal with the trigger it will continue to control you. What is a trigger? A trigger is something that sets off an emotional response in you. You may get angry, annoyed, upset, frustrated. You may react with judgment, avoidance, or apathy. Either way, if something is triggering an emotional response in you, that trigger is an indicator that there is an internal conflict or an unresolved issue that needs to be addressed. And if you don’t address it, it will continue to control you. Doing the inner work is looking at these triggers with curiosity and compassion, so you can begin the healing process to let it go and step into being your true self. Is it a situation, something or someone that triggers you. Does the trigger feel like something unresolved from the past? Is it highlighting where you are suppressing yourself? Not standing up for what you believe in or asking for what you want? Or is it an inner conflict? Use these journal prompts to uncover and overcome the trigger: Questions for Unresolved Issues Identify the past experience it reminds you of. What about that past experience triggers you? What are the emotions you are noticing you feel? What did you want to say, or do in that situation that you didn't do in the past? How did you want the other person to respond? How has your interpretation of the event affected how you view the situation here in the present? Why is it now time to change your interpretation of the event? What could you make it mean instead? Does someone trigger you? Use these questions to remove the trigger What triggers you about them? Specifically? Get as specific as possible. What emotions does it bring up in you? What about that person could you be missing? What are you choosing not to see? What do I see in them that I fear in myself? What do I want it to be instead? Who do I want to be instead? TAKE THE QUIZ: What's holding you back? https://christinecorcoran.com.au/quiz/

When you're stuck in the thick of it and you cannot see past the challenges you're experiencing, it can be difficult to pull yourself out.

Where in your life do you experience the Impostor syndrome? Have you ever experienced feeling like a fraud? Feeling like you may be found out? Feeling like you don’t deserve what you want? The Impostor Syndrome is fear based thinking where we believe that we are unworthy of our own success or achievements. It's where we fear being found out that we're a fraud and dismiss our own worthiness.

So the question is – how do we overcome this? How do I push past the fear and achieve the things we want to achieve without the feeling of not being worthy or like we are going to be found out a fraud?
