Do you sometimes feel taken advantage of but don't know how to make a change? Then you may be burdened with People Pleasing. People-pleasing stops us from moving forward in our lives and we end up looking to everyone else for the answers when the answers we need are truly within ourselves. So why do we people please?

Gaining clarity, skills, and confidence to better manage money as a tool to create freedom and a life of their design.

Lea believes that the more women step into their power with money and own their relationship with it, consciously and mindfully, then it can be used with purpose and intention to support us individually and as a collective. 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. Today's conversation covers: Exploring the possibilities of wealth & what we believe is possibleWhy women struggle with earning more moneyOur emotional relationship with moneyIntergenerational money storiesMoney fears as a womanAbundant actionMoving through fear as you up levelMoney as an amplifierAbundance starts with clarityWealth is also being able to receiveValuing yourselfCharging what you're worthSelf sabotaging our wealth

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.

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?

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. I don’t believe you have to be a high-achieving individual to experience the Impostor Syndrome, I believe that anyone wanting to create something new, push themselves out of their comfort zone or put themselves out there have experienced this at some point in their lives. 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?

Overthinking comes in three forms; ruminating about the past, worrying about the future or dwelling on a problem. Are you a victim of overthinking? Do you make problems where there aren't any? Do you get stuck in Analysis paralysis? Overthinking is a repeated thought pattern that keeps us stuck and also hinders us from tapping into valuable information from the body. Today I delve into how to get out of your head, back into your body so you can stop the overthinking pattern. Learning to tap into your heart and your intuition gives you the ability to feel the emotions designed to give us information and figure out what action steps to take to overcome the problem. Overthinking is often a symptom of avoiding our emotions, where our brains override our hearts and try to work out what to do and how to feel. Our heart is where we fee so when we learn to tap back into our hearts we get to tap into so much more positive emotion to enhance our experience in our lives. Some key ways to overcome overthinking are: Reducing the amount of time given to overthinking (set a deadline and choose a different option - decision or action.MeditationCoherent breathing practiceExerciseCreative playTaking action

What is a scarcity mindset? A scarcity mindset is where we focus on everything that is missing in our lives, of all the things we want and don’t have, of all the ways we can’t have what we want and everything that’s lacking. A scarcity mindset affects all areas of your life, it affects your perspective of life, it affects your happiness and joy, it affections your emotions and behaviours and our vibration and ability to manifest more abundance. To overcome a scarcity mindset we must: Learn to stop telling the scarcity story.Manage your inner criticQuestion the truthForgive and let goRefocus our attention Then use these questions as prompts to refocus your attention. What has money given to you in the past? (Fight the urge to get negative here – really focus on what it HAS given you.)What is it giving you now?What are you taking for granted? (the simple things in life that money allows you – like electricity, wifi, food, water)What opportunities does this situation give you? Really take the time to think this one through, it’s easy to focus on the lack here, but when you really look deeply, you will find opportunities that weren’t there before.Create a list of options to attract more abundance. Get creative here, create a list of at least 20 options – when you think you’ve written down all the options, try for 5 more. ( I know what you’re thinking here – you can’t – well, you can – you’re just not trying hard enough)What can you be truly grateful for?What can I focus on that makes me feel abundant? Taking the time to find gratitude on a daily basis is the only way to truly shift your perspective to abundance. More abundance will come the more you focus on what you do have, right now, at this moment.

Are you waiting for permission? From some one or something to be able to do what you want to do, become who you want to become or say the things you want to say? Permission isn't handed out to people who are waiting for it. It's given to those who demand it and take it without asking. Why do you think we need permission? Rules of authority or credibility? In today's world, being an adult we must learn to create our own inner authority to find the courage and conviction to trust ourselves and give ourself permission. Approval - Who's approval are you looking for? Who's did you crave as a child? Validation from others - Having mentors and coaches are great ways to expand yourself, but be mindful that you don't create a co-dependent relationship where you're always looking externally for the permission to take an action. Learning to recognize and validate yourself is how you build the inner trust to begin to give yourself permission. Worrying about what other people think is another form of validation and it also comes back to how you view yourself, how you trust yourself and how you choose other peoples opinions above your own. The only way to develop your inner trust is to start making decisions for yourself, back yourself 100% and if for any reason, it doesn't work out, you also take full responsibility and learn from the experience. When we look to others for the answers it's easy to fail because it was never our decision in the first place - it's a form of self-protection. Practicing self-love is more powerful - Learn to accept and love yourself enough to back your every decision, trust your every move and give yourself the permission to fail and to succeed.

The mindset that got you here is not going to get you there. If you want to scale and grow you cannot create up-leveled results from the actions you have taken in the past, Your past does not equal your future unless you allow it to. How would your future self be thinking about your next steps? To uplevel your mindset you must consider: Growth is UncomfortableExpect more from yourselfRaise your standardsWhat do you need to improve, and learn to grow?Investing in yourself and your business - are your thoughts coming from a place of lack?Upgrading your brandingSpending money on marketingQuality not quantityProtecting what you consumeEmbed new beliefsAsking for FeedbackUncovering and overcoming your fears - Fear of success, fear of failure. fear of judgment.What mindset do you need to adopt to grow to move forward?

Do you want to up level your life and business? It starts with your mindset.

Are you a giver? Do you love giving but struggle to receive? Do you find yourself deflecting compliments? Do you not accept when someone wants to celebrate your or give you encouragement? Can you ask for help? Are you coachable? Do you take advice on board? Welcome Feedback?? Are you blocking abundance in all areas of your life? It might be time to learn how to receive. For such a long time I was wearing "independence" like a badge of honour. Doing things on my own made me feel strong and significant and it got to the extreme where I wasn't allowing myself to receive gifts from other people. I had to overcome old belief patterns around accepting help meant weakness, where I believed I wasn't of value when I wasn't giving. Can you receive gracefully? Yes, thank you I appreciate that. You’re so kind, Yin and Yang, circle of life, giving and receiving, we need both to experience life fully. On today's episode, I explore the gift of receiving and the old thought patterns we need to change to start receiving abundance into our lives.

Our beliefs shape our reality, our actions, our behaviour and our results in life. If we're not careful we can find ourselves closing the doors to our growth and our fullest potential because we believe some of the fixed mindset thoughts that run through our minds. Be careful when you hear yourself say or think any version of these and here's how to shift and change them. It's always been done that way I can do it better on my own It's not my fault it's the (economy, flooded market, it's the customers, employees, partner, friend, etc) I don't know or I don't know what to do It is what it is - it's out of my control Belief patterns can be strong and difficult to change if we have built up enough evidence to prove them to be true to ourselves. Each day it's important that we Ask better questionsQuestion the beliefs that may hold us backEmbed new beliefs that serve usSearch out the evidence to back up those new beliefs. So where is your mindset fixed? immovable? or in avoidance? “The quality of your life is a direct reflection of the quality of the questions you are asking yourself” Tony Robbins

What is Fear of Success, how do we identify it and how do we overcome it? You may think the fear of failure is what causes us to procrastinate and not take action on our goals, often it's the fear of success that is harder to recognize and what is actually keeping us stuck. We often self-sabotage without even knowing we are doing it Here are some signs to look out for: Not wanting to set goalsBeing late to appointments/meetings of importanceSaying or doing something inappropriate during important situationsConveniently “forgetting deadlines”Laziness and lack of motivation to complete projectsConstantly second-guessing yourselfAddiction to procrastinationPerfectionismSelf-sabotage in ways that prevent a positive outcomeNot preparing for something importantAvoidance of responsibilityTurning down good opportunities without a good reasonLimiting yourself to jobs, projects, and relationships you’ve long outgrownSabotaging yourself when you’re on the brink of success (e.g. making excuses, getting “sick”, excessive alcohol or drug use, closing down, negative self-talk, creating dramas, etc.) Today I'm talking about the top 5 fear based thinking patterns that are attributed to the fear of success. Fear of People Judging youFear of people leaving youFear of being successful and then it all comes falling downFear of who you may becomeFear of more responsibility or more challenge What are you afraid of and how can we overcome the fear of success?

Self Doubt stops action, momentum, stops decisions and creates a disconnect. A separation of self from others, our ability and our power. Are you feeling blocked creatively, scared to launch something new, questioning what you know or how you can do something you've never done before? Do you keep hearing that inner voice saying, "I don't know, I don't know what I'm doing, I'm never going to figure this out, I wish I was more confident" This is the little self doubt monster taking over. What is self doubt and how do we overcome it?How does Self Doubt hold you back?What if you let go of Self Doubt?Learn to celebrate yourself and your abilities Self Doubt blocks our intuition, our abundance, lowers our vibration and has no purpose other than to keep us safe. Without it we actually develop self belief. Don't beat yourself up. You are not a failure just because you something didn't work out. Self belief and self trust can be rebuilt. Our word to ourselves is everything. Our commitments are our word to ourselves and when we go against that, we lose trust with ourselves. What would support you in rebuilding your self trust and belief?

What's happening? Does it feel like you're doing all things but feel like you're not getting anywhere? I'm going to break down the mental, emotional and physical things that may be holding you back from achieving your goals. Mentally: Are your goals too big?

Maybe it's time to get some leverage on yourself? Physically: What action are you taking? Is it massive action? Are you checking in with your goals regularly enough?

So often we can dramatize things, blow them out of proportion and be caught in a drama cycle with others and not realise it's causing more pain than good.

Today's podcast episode is all about how to recognize when Drama is affecting our lives and how to make changes for the better. What about toxic relationships?
