In this episode, we examine the way we all use rules to limit ourselves. Our made-up rules affect our lives in dramatic ways. They constrain what we allow ourselves to do and who we allow ourselves to be. When we stop to examine our self-imposed rules, our world opens. We discover we’re free to decide which rules to keep and which ones to discard. We learn how to broaden the choices available to us and we create expansive lives...
In episode 10, How to Think Your Future into Existence, you learned how to use visualization to create your future. In this episode, we focus instead on how to use visualization and imagery to solve your problems.

Our subconscious doesn’t understand language. It does understand pictures and images...
This episode is for you if you associate “difficult” with “valuable” and “easy” with “not valuable”. We're living in a society that prizes effort, diligence, stamina, dedication, commitment and working hard. These things are necessary sometimes. Valuable sometimes. But a lot of times we prize these qualities so much we create a desperate dedication to effort that’s completely unnecessary. Listen to this episode to find out why easy can be better. Learn how to effort less and enjoy life more.

Get ready to blow up your concept of what your “career” encompasses. When you learn to think more expansively about your career, you might very well find that your whole life becomes bigger. Language can curtail your choices, or it can set you free.

The “broken” pieces of us - the parts of us we’ve been believing are wrong – are often areas of tremendous strength and value. When there’s something about us that’s been bothering us, and we decide to start loving it and not trying to hide it, it can become the reason other people seek us out. It can be what allows other people to relate to us and makes them want to get to know us better. Ironically, it’s when we pretend to be too perfect that we turn other people away...
This is my favorite episode so far because of the power of what I'm sharing here. I unveil what I like to think of as the secret to the universe – how to access the unlimited creativity that is available to you. When you tap into it, your life will transform in a powerful way. I share a story that explains why I believe each one of us has available to us creativity at the level of a Mozart or Monet. In my world, there is no hierarchy of creative worthiness. Creativity isn't personal...
In this episode we focus on your worried brain. If you have a habit of worrying a lot, it’s because a part of you believes that worry is useful. In this episode, I show you why worry isn’t useful and how you can redirect your worried brain to more productive – and enjoyable - thinking. If you ditch the myth that worrying is productive, you will free up your beautiful brain to create the life you want. And that’s what I want for you!
If you think some part of you is wrong, you’ll find comfort in this episode. We all have a tendency to want to fight off our inner critic, but it doesn’t work. “Piling on” by criticizing our own inner critic only makes things worse. In this episode, I propose a different approach that involves self compassion and deep listening...
This is a fun and different episode that will pack a punch in your life if you follow my suggestions towards the end. It’s not a “chick episode” and it’s not for fashionistas. The way you think about the simple act of getting dressed in the morning can be a portal to a more a profound knowledge of yourself and what you want. It’s an exercise that can shift you out of the rut of making choices designed to please other people...
