Podcast: EP 26 The Gifts of Adversity

Podcast: EP 26 The Gifts of Adversity

Now is the time to embrace what’s here.

 

I felt prompted for the past few days to talk about something on the podcast that I spoke about in a TEDx talk years ago. It’s about the gifts that come wrapped in adversity.

Since we are all experiencing adversity of some kind right now, it feels especially relevant. But the story I share in this episode actually happened to me about 10 years ago. It taught me a lesson I have never forgotten. Sending you lots of love.

“Not all storms come to wreck our lives, but to clear the path.”

Podcast: EP 24 Mind Movies + Manifesting with Natalie Ledwell

Podcast: EP 24 Mind Movies + Manifesting with Natalie Ledwell

What is your vision for your future?

 

One of my favorite ways to manifest what I want is to envision it. I know from personal experience that this is so powerful. So I was very excited to record a conversation with my dear friend Natalie about the most effective ways to do this.

Natalie Ledwell, author of the bestselling book, Never in Your Wildest Dreams, host of The Inspiration Show and Co-founder of Mind Movies, never imagined where she’d end up.

Raised in rural Australia in a family of 8, she knew that she was destined for something bigger, that she wanted more from her life and to help others find the same, but had no idea how to reach her goals.

Fast forward to today and Natalie and her incredible team at Mind Movies have empowered over 5.8 million people around the world to see beyond their own circumstances, to break down the boundaries real or perceived in their lives… and truly begin to find the lives and success they deserve.

In this conversation, Natalie and I discuss how to shift into this mindset, why everything is going to work out, and the power of creating mind movies in your manifestation process.

“I have this expectation that everything will always work out fine, and if it doesn’t show up exactly the way I think it’s going to, I know that what does show up is always in my highest good.

Podcast: EP 17 Love, Healing, and Desire Mapping with Danielle LaPorte

Podcast: EP 17 Love, Healing, and Desire Mapping with Danielle LaPorte

One of the lady legends is here today.

 

I love this woman. She has been inspiring me for years. Her books, words, posts, and teachings have been a light to me.

Yes, I’m talking about THE Danielle LaPorte. You’ve likely heard of her Desire Map or Fire Starter Sessions. But if you’re just being introduced to Danielle, here’s what to get excited about.

Danielle LaPorte is a member of Oprah’s Super Soul 100, a group who, in Oprah Winfrey’s words, “is uniquely connecting the world together with a spiritual energy that matters.”

She is the creator of The Desire Map series, “A heart centered approach to finding your true power”. The book has been translated into ten languages, a day planner system, a multimedia course, a Top 10 iTunes app, and workshop and coaching programs with leaders in 15+ countries. She’s also the author of White Hot Truth: Clarity for keeping it real on your spiritual path, and The Fire Starter Sessions: A guide to creating success on your own terms, which also spun off into a coaching curriculum.

I was so thrilled to record this episode, I asked her as many questions as I could fit in, from how she handles vulnerability to dating to owning her voice and more. I know you’ll feel stronger and clearer after listening to this special conversation.

The mechanism for everything we want is devotion.
