Episode 242: Best Lessons of the Year Dec 21, 2023

Show notes

As we are in the final weeks of 2023, I have naturally been thinking about the year—the things I did, the choices I made, the results I have created, and especially the lessons I have learned.

Today on the podcast, I wanted to share the three lessons that have meant the most to me this year. These are the things that changed me the most and made a huge difference in the way I think about myself and my life.

Every once in a while, it's powerful to stop and notice and record what you have learned, what you know now that you didn't before, and what you are becoming. Our brains want to minimize our accomplishments and tell us we aren't changing, we aren't growing, and we aren't learning. But we always are.

Come listen to the lessons that helped me the most this year and then make some time to appreciate and notice the lessons that you have learned as well. Whatever happened, whatever choices you made, you learned something valuable and now's the perfect time to reflect on those things.

Episode 241: Your Brain is Like a Hallmark Movie Dec 14, 2023

Show notes

This time of year, it's hard to miss the onslaught of cheesy, formulaic Christmas movies, where (inevitably) a big city businessman/advertising exec/marketing bro finds true love and happiness with a small-town baker/chef/café owner. It's a story that's been so overtold that you can guess the characters, the setting, the plot, and the happy ending before it even starts.

In many ways, our brain follows the same predictable pattern as these movies. No matter how boring, and no matter how tired we are of the same thoughts and stories it creates, our brain keeps recycling the same old negative beliefs that keep us stuck and unhappy.

Today on the podcast, we're having some fun as we compare our brains to these predictable, holiday movies. I'll show you how our brain keeps running the same excuses, the same drama, the same negativity, the same doubts over and over again—and how this just keeps creating the same plot lines and the same results in our lives.

Come learn three ways your brain is doing its job just like a Hallmark movie producer so that you can identify its patterns, change things up, and create a life you really love.

Episode 240: Purpose and the Life You Were Supposed to Have Dec 07, 2023

Show notes

As humans, most of us wonder about our purpose. Unlike God's other creations, we tend to worry about what we're supposed to be doing with our lives and how to find and fulfill our true purpose while we're here on earth.

Sometimes these concerns cause us to hurt ourselves with the thought that our lives were supposed to be different than they are and that if we were better somehow or had made better choices, then we'd have the life we were really supposed to have.

In today's episode of the podcast, I'm sharing some thoughts to help you feel more peaceful about your purpose and the life you have created. I hope it will allow you to let go of the nagging thoughts that tell you that you've missed something or done your life wrong and help you see that you are always having the exact life experience you need.

Episode 238: Increasing Your Gratitude Nov 23, 2023

Show notes

While there are never feelings that you should or should not feel, there might be feelings that you WANT to feel more of—and maybe gratitude is one of those for you.

Not only can gratitude be one of the most enjoyable emotions to feel in and of itself, it can also be used to soften and ameliorate painful emotions like stress and grief.

Today on the podcast, I'm sharing a small but powerful tool that you can use to immediately increase the amount of gratitude you feel in any situation. Instead of forcing yourself or shaming yourself to "just be grateful," this shift in perspective will help you think about gratitude in a way you never have before and make it easier to feel.

On this Thanksgiving weekend, I hope this episode will give you a tool to increase your gratitude that you can use any time you want to feel more of it.

Episode 236: Thoughts and Prayers Nov 09, 2023

Show notes

One of the greatest gifts we have down here on earth is the ability to talk to God. But just like anything else in life, sometimes our thoughts get in the way of us using this gift the way we want to.

For many of us, there are a lot of thoughts that can get in the way of our conversations with God, that prevent us from opening up to him, that make us feel guilty and self-conscious, and stop us from making him a trusted confidant that we want to talk to and listen to.

In today's episode of the podcast, we're talking about how your thoughts about God and your thoughts about yourself create your relationship with God and impact both the frequency with which you talk to him and the level of intimacy you feel when you do. If you want to improve your communication with heaven, this episode is for you.

Episode 235: The Grief of the World with Kelly Norton Nov 02, 2023

Show notes

It's easy to feel heavy and overwhelmed by the suffering and devastation happening in our world right now. It seems like there is no end to the pain caused by living in the world or to the pain that can be caused by the choices of other people.

In today's podcast episode, I am sharing a recent conversation I had with grief coach, Kelly Norton, who shared some powerful thoughts about how to handle and manage the grief of the world and the pain we feel witnessing the realities of the human condition and the suffering of others.

We talk about how we can manage the mental and emotional weight of catastrophic current events, how to balance being informed with protecting your peace, how feeling bad is actually a good thing, and how to allow for joy even in the worst of times.

I hope this conversation helps you feel less alone in your sorrow or fear, gives you help and permission to feel and process your emotions, and teaches you some practical things that you can do to feel better and to help increase the amount of love in the world.

Episode 234: Casting Spells and Making Magic Oct 26, 2023

Show notes

A spell is defined as a series of words that has magical powers. But there's nothing mystical or supernatural about the fact that the words in our head (our thoughts) are powerfully, unconsciously, almost "magically" creating our lives.

And if we think about the metaphor of casting spells to allow you to alter or control reality, nowhere is that a more useful skill to have than in your own mind. The words you choose to think are literally creating your life—and that means that your ability to look at them, choose them, and change them, may be the most powerful magic there is.

Today on the podcast, in a little nod to the upcoming Halloween holiday, I'm bringing your awareness to the fundamental creative force in your life: the words you say to yourself or to others. I'll show you how to examine the words you say to yourself and other people so you can "cast the best spells" and weave the reality you want.

Episode 233: Poisonous Thoughts in Disguise Oct 19, 2023

Show notes

Our brains can be kind of tricky sometimes. They often like to give us thoughts that sound nice, but which can actually be harmful and cause us pain. In fact, some of our most poisonous thoughts walk around our minds disguised as helpful, useful, reasonable, and sometimes even "positive" thoughts.

Today on the podcast I'll show you how three thoughts (that your brain probably gives you on a daily or weekly basis) might be causing you to feel powerless, frustrated, and ashamed—but you might not even know it because they are disguised so well.

I'll teach you how to find all your poisonous, harmful thoughts in disguise so that you can unmask them, let them go, and feel better.
