Wannabe Balanced | MINDSET Coach — Health
Wannabe Balanced | MINDSET Coach

This podcast started out as a self help podcast for moms trying to find balance in motherhood and business but morphed into a documentation of Crystal and Sean Escobar’s journey out of the Mormon church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints). The Podcast has been therapeutic on so many levels for its hosts. They vulnerably share their pitfalls and triumphs as they work to deconstruct a lifetime of indoctrination from the LDS church which they exited in the Spring of 2018. Sexual shame, marriage, parenting, science, spirituality, personal development, healing, sex abuse, are some of the topics they focus on.

At episode 100 they both decided they were done processing their experience in the church and shifted their focus on helping others heal and grow in all areas of life. Crystal became a Certified Life/ Mindset Coach in 2020 and now offers free education in personal development via her podcast.

Her mission is to help women overcome past trauma and limiting beliefs, empowering them to create the life they were meant to live through her podcast, Time Management Course, and one on one coaching services.

Ep #101: When eating "HEALTHY" doesn't work Nov 03, 2020

Show notes

Laura Hernandez vulnerably shares her struggles with her health and weight after years of research and working at perfecting her diet.
In a facebook post she recently shared her experience after 11 days on what we're calling the ER Shred.

"I wish I could just say I had “let myself go” in that first pic, & that I made a decision to get “healthy” in that 2nd pic, bc that would have been easier. But, NOTHING could be further from the truth, as my close friends & family can attest to how hard I exercise everyday & how clean I eat 90% of the time!"

Ep #100: Wannabe Balanced Oct 27, 2020

Show notes

100 Episodes!!!! Wow! I'm so dang proud of that.

Here's a recap of what those 100 episodes are about;

1-20 was the beginning stages of a LOT of personal development which ultimately led to the choice to leave our life long religion.

21-99 was basically our entire journey and all the different phases we experienced after leaving the church.

Now starting season 4 and going a slightly different direction. We will be discussing all different kinds of topics around personal growth and development as well as sprinkling in some Mormon Enlightenment interviews and discussions.

Ep #99: How can we change our past? Oct 20, 2020

Show notes

Use your past to enhance your present.

It all comes down to the way we tell our story.

Were you the victim? Or were you the hero?

Train your brain to notice what was good about the way your life has played out.

Ask, how is this happening FOR me and not to me?

Ep #98: Finding Your Tribe | Making Friends Post Mormonism Oct 12, 2020

Show notes

When we leave Mormonism, we also leave behind our community to some extent.

But when we become so focused on what was lost, or our lack of something, our brain stops trying to find solutions.

When we begin focusing on what we WANT, believing that it's on it's way, then suddenly we open ourselves up to creativity and BOOM, the answers (or people), arrive.

Ep #97: When Others Judge You Sep 30, 2020

Show notes

When I was 10 years old I had a traumatic experience that caused me to feel overwhelming SHAME. A year later I finally gained the courage to "confess" it to my bishop.

Growing up in the Mormon Church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) I adapted this belief that my leaders, bishop, priesthood holders, elders, and prophets were the ones with the final say regarding my worthiness.

Now I see how this has contributed to my need for validation and approval from others. Instead of being grounded in my inner knowing, the truth about ME, I gave my power away and silenced the true me that KNOWS I'm enough, worthy, and pure, NO. MATTER. WHAT.

Ep #96: Negative Emotions Around Mormon Teachings Sep 22, 2020

Show notes

A few years ago I was at my wits end with all my bottled up Mormon Mom emotions. So much guilt, jealousy, envy, and pressure to do everything amazing all the time with a perfect smile on my face.

I was desperate for help. I prayed, I studied scriptures, and had conference talks playing on repeat all day.

I could never find anything that spoke to me, or that offered any kind of relief from my inner suffering.

Until one day I found a podcast by an LDS life coach. Ironically she was the one that released me from my living Mormon hell. She taught me one simple truth. That I could choose to believe what ever I wanted to believe.

I know some might say, "well, of course we get to choose what we believe". But I literally did NOT know this. I thought I was supposed to believe what the CHURCH told me to believe.

They taught me it was the one and ONLY way, the ONLY true church, and the ONLY path to live a happy life full of blessings.

Since leaving the church and experiencing for myself whether or not that is true, I've come to discover that it is NOT.

Ep #95: How Much is Too Much Alcohol? Sep 16, 2020

Show notes

I've been wanting to talk about alcohol consumption for a while now but haven't felt I was in a place to really give any kind of useful advice.
I've been battling my own internal struggle ever since we allowed drinking to be part of our lifestyle. Not about the shame and guilt from the church, but mostly just fears around my health and addiction.

Ep #94: Live Your Truth w/ Kyla Faye Dickerson Sep 08, 2020

Show notes

Here is an interview with Kyla Faye Dickerson. She shares her story growing up in the Mormon church and getting married in the temple. Eventually she gained the courage to live her truth by leaving the church and discovering a whole new way of seeing her life and the world.

Ep #93: My Mormon Mindset vs. Current Reality Aug 18, 2020

Show notes

Recognizing the shift in my mindset and sharing a list of the old verses the new. Here are a few;

Old: Worthiness and pleading with God for things is the way to receive blessings.

New: I'm ALWAYS worthy of everything my soul desires. Intensions, and actions fueled by love, is the way to attract more good into my life.

Old: The Prophet knows whats best for me and my family.

New: I know best, what's best for me. For the first time in my life I'm learning to listen to ME. At the same time, remaining open to feedback and information.

Old: It's not my "calling" to make money, therefore I'd never really be able to because God wouldn't bless me. Working makes me a bad mom. Men are more successful. By the time my kids are grown I'll be too old to pursue anything worthwhile.

New: I'm not a bad mom if I choose to work. Women are just as capable of making money as men. It's NEVER too late. Louis Hay (Hay House Publishing) is the perfect example of a women who didn't let age stop her.

When she was in her mid 40's she started teaching.
At 50, she began her publishing company.
At 55, she took classes and learned how to use computers.
60, started her first garden.
70, entered a children's art class
75, graduated to an adults art class and started selling paintings, also took up yoga.
76, took up ballroom dancing, fulfilling her childhood dream of becoming a dancer.

Ep #92: On Feeling the "SPIRIT" | What that means to me now. Aug 04, 2020

Show notes

I used to believe I had to be WORTHY of receiving inspiration and guidance in my life. It was a constant questioning of myself, wondering if God would still speak to me even if I wasn't doing A, B, and C.

Now unpacking and discovering a whole new meaning of what "feeling the spirit" is to me. Regaining the trust I lost when taking the "wrong" road far too often after following the "spirit".

What does feeling the spirit mean to you? Is it a question of worthiness? Is it your gut feeling? Is it warning signs? A burning in your bosom? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
