EP#427 – [TOOL] Working with the Subconscious (and Superconscious) Mind with Laura Gevanter

EP#427 – [TOOL] Working with the Subconscious (and Superconscious) Mind with Laura Gevanter

You know that thing where you consciously understand that you are worthy and “enough” but you struggle to actually believe it? Well, there’s a very real reason for that, so no, you aren’t uniquely broken. Like, at all. It has everything to do with the subconscious part of the mind and how it truly runs our life, behavior, and emotions. Our minds are roughly comprised of 10% conscious faculty and 90% subconscious faculty. That means you can logically, rationally understand something (like worthiness) but if you have a deep-seated belief rooted in the subconscious mind that you most certainly are “not enough”, guess which part of the mind dictates your behaviour? Yup. The whoppin’ 90% subconscious.

Well, shit. What are we supposed to do about that? 

Well, the great news is there are ways to reprogram the subconscious (thank god!) and my guest this week is going to spill all the deets. Laura Gevanter works in a specific modality called PSYCH-K® that helps individuals move past the trauma that has created limited beliefs (Like, “I’m not enough”) in order to create new, empowering beliefs. In our chat today, we discuss how much physical distress is rooted in unresolved emotional trauma, how working with the subconscious can aid in quickly changing disempowering beliefs, and how you can start believing that you are actually Enough, Already!

This pod explores:

  • The two common areas where the Psych-K modality is used (hint: you probably can relate)
  • What the hell muscle testing is and how that is related to our subconscious mind
  • Understanding the brain science behind changing limiting beliefs (even if you aren’t a neuroscientist) 
  • The connection between emotional trauma and physical ailments and what you can do about it

[AMY SAYS] EP#426 – 4 Step Process to Understanding + Navigating Anger (without losing your damn mind)

[AMY SAYS] EP#426 – 4 Step Process to Understanding + Navigating Anger (without losing your damn mind)

You’re livid. Heads are about to roll. Maybe you found out that your partner didn’t take care of an important issue at your child’s school leaving you scrambling at the last minute. Or perhaps your sister went behind your back and shared something with other family members when you specifically asked her not to. Or maybe you can’t listen to the news, get direction from *you know who* at work, or drive to the gym without feeling like you could punch someone (or many someones) in the teeth.

Listen, up, Babycakes. Anger is real. It’s a natural, human reaction to feeling wronged, threatened, or victimized. But, if you’re like many peeps, you have never been given the tools to navigate anger in a healthy way without plummeting head first into an addiction, a physical altercation, or massively regretting everything you just said/did… like, damaging property or something.

So, is the trick to not get mad? Of course not. In the first half of this episode, I address a simple, four-step process to dealing with a fit of anger… whether it’s been festering for years or if it just hit you today. In the second portion, I spell out some Dos and Don’ts around working with your anger. This process will allow you feel waaaaay more in control, create a ton of permission to be your messy, human self, and get to the root issues so you can get back to your badassery.

This pod explores:

  • Why processing your anger is actually essential for your health (What!? I know.)
  • How to channel your anger in a way that feels massively healing and cathartic (instead of riddled with guilt and regret)
  • My favorite tool for figuring out the “real” issue behind what’s pissing you off, so you can make some real and lasting change
  • How to ask for what you need in a way that actually gets you heard… and gets results

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#425 – Rage, Forgiveness, and Thriving After Trauma with Jennifer Kauffman

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#425 – Rage, Forgiveness, and Thriving After Trauma with Jennifer Kauffman

On April 15, 2013, Jennifer Kauffman was standing approximately 15 feet from the finish line bombing at the 117th Boston Marathon. It goes without saying that surviving this terrorist attack left Jennifer with a litany of physical and emotional wounds to tend to. After addressing the emergent physical healing, Jennifer was left emotionally reeling from this event as she grappled with her extreme rage toward the attackers. 

As she moved through her emotional healing, and began to find her peace, she felt convicted to share her story with the intention of inspiring others. As a best selling author and an executive producer of two Emmy award-winning movies, she is on a mission to inspire, encourage and empower people to rise despite seemingly impossible situations, transforming their trauma, enabling them to rise and thrive to live their best life. Talk about inspiring.

In this candid and unabashed interview, Jennifer shares her personal story, including reading her victim impact statement at the sentencing, and how she was able to move through her all-consuming rage to access forgiveness for the bombers. What!!? I know. Have a listen and learn what it looks like to transform your trauma into personal power.  

This pod explores:

  • How Jennifer managed to forgive the two terrorists of the Boston Marathon Bombing
  • How to process extreme rage around injustice and trauma and synthesize it into healing
  • What to do to process your emotions when you feel triggered
  • The big secret that no one tells you about healing from trauma

[AMY SAYS] EP#424 – 7 Reasons Goals Fail + How to Make Sure Yours Don’t

[AMY SAYS] EP#424 – 7 Reasons Goals Fail + How to Make Sure Yours Don’t

At the start of every year, it’s likely you get pumped up and excited to make some serious change. You decide on a handful of things that you are GOING to conquer this year, god-damn-it! But what actually makes those goals a reality?

Throughout my decade-plus in this work, I have found that noble intentions have very little to do with bringing goals to fruition. Good ol’ fashioned gumption and desire are not enough to make your dreams come true. [sad trombone] In fact, a recent Inc.com article indicated that only 8% of people actually accomplish their goals. WHOA!! 8%!? Well, fuck.

But, wait.

Never fear, Babycakes, because this episode targets seven ways people tend to sabotage their own goals (without even realizing it) and how you can set yourself up to slaaaaay all your goals. It’s not rocket science, but if you employ some of these easy tactics, you will kill all your 2022 goals! Yes, please!

This pod explores:

  • My favorite tool to use to ensure you are tackling this goal for YOU (instead of mom/fam/boss/society)
  • The number one way people lose steam while working towards a goal and how you can smoothly move beyond this obstacle like a BOSS
  • Why you need accountability and people in your life to support you and what to do if you don’t
  • How to keep your self-talk on point so you are constantly encouraged, kicking ass, and taking names

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#423 – Navigating Patriarchy Stress Disorder with Dr. Valerie Rein

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#423 – Navigating Patriarchy Stress Disorder with Dr. Valerie Rein

Have you ever found yourself feeling like no matter what you do, no matter how hard you work, how “perfect” you may be, or how many damn boxes you’ve checked off it never seems to be enough? Your mind constantly spins with “I’m not smart enough… accomplished enough… pretty enough… good enough” or fill in the blank with some other “not enough”. It’s almost as though your entire life is centered around attaining this elusive Enoughness.

And, DAMN is that ever stressful, amiright!? Constantly doing, doing, doing… Constantly achieving. Constantly perfecting. Twisting, contorting… trying to find your worth in how others perceive you. Sound familiar? 

Well, I have some very good news for you. If you’ve found yourself trying to garner “enoughness” through these same behaviors or found your inner shit-talker telling you just simply are not good enough, it’s actually not a YOU problem. It’s a much larger problem with the society in which we live. And that society is steeped in patriarchy. So, the great news is that there is nothing wrong with you. You are not broken. But, our culture? Our society? Yes, therein lies the problem.

Throughout millenia women have endured the perpetual stress of not being “enough” and in the words of my brilliant guest this week, Dr. Valerie Rein, they have been viewed as being “worth less” than men. In this candid and thought-provoking conversation, Dr. Valerie highlights her discovery of Patriarchy Stress Disorder (PSD) and how it impacts every last one of us. We discuss the influence of religion on our patriarchal system, how generational trauma is impacting how we show up in the world, and what we can do to reclaim our personal agency and power. You’re welcome.

This pod explores:

  • The number one symptom of trauma and how to recognize it in your own life (Spoiler: We literally ALL have trauma)
  • Dr. Valerie’s concept of “Falling Asleep” or “Taking a Bite of the Poisonous Patriarchy Apple” and what we can do to regain our personal strength and power
  • Understanding intergenerational trauma and how it affects you… even if you think you had a “pretty good” childhood
  • How to shift from constantly asking “How much more can I bear?” to “How good can it get?” (Yes, please!)

[AMY SAYS] EP#422 – How to Make Epic Shit Happen in 2022

[AMY SAYS] EP#422 – How to Make Epic Shit Happen in 2022

 

If you’re like most people, you have an overwhelming sense of excitement and ambition come the new year. Also like most people, perhaps you hit Jan with a fire under your ass, but when Feb rolls around you have slowly begun to lose steam, fervor, and action. Also, 2021 kicked many of our asses, so there’s that to contend with. Many people (and maybe YOU) enter the New Year with many plans and intentions, but somehow end up a bit off track sooner than later.

In this episode, I address the biggest obstacles people unknowingly establish for themselves when crafting New Year’s goals and “resolutions”. Yep, you read that right… many people actually make their job a shit-ton harder by not setting themselves up for success to begin with. I also share my personal planning tool I use to ensure I establish solid goals in aaaaall areas of my life (not just fitness and money… but, yes, those too). Be sure to grab your free planning guide so you can plan and organize a seriously epic 2022 by figuring out what categories in which you would like to make headway. Plus, you’ll have sexy, little worksheets to record all your brilliance!

This pod explores:

  • The two biggest mistakes people make when crafting goals for the new year
  • How to assess where you are in your life now and where you want to be in a year’s time
  • How to create goals that are really about YOUR fulfillment, are totally attainable, and light you up
  • Why you probably don’t want to celebrate your 2021 accomplishments, but you kinda, absolutely MUST

Although fun and festive, it can take a sheer act of god to keep you from losing your ever-lovin’ mind during the chaos of this time of year, amiright!?

If it’s not the multitude of gifts to buy or the food to prep, then it’s surely the family drama or workplace obligations that bring you to your breaking point. And while you’re spending money on shit you don’t want to buy or baking food for people you don’t even enjoy very much, you find yourself wondering why the fuck peace on earth has eluded you. But, lord help you if you don’t show up to the office party with the secret santa gift or all hell might break loose if you tell the in-laws you can’t make it this year.

If you have found yourself overloaded by holiday stress and obligations, get ready for a huge sigh of relief. On this week’s show, I sound off on six things you can start doing immediately to relinquish all the holiday overwhelm and chaos so you can actually enjoy the things about this time of year that truly mean the most to you.

  • How your attachment to things being P E R F E C T may be causing you unnecessary stress and overwhelm
  • My favorite tool to figure out exactly how (and with whom) I want to spend my time and energy

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#420 – Using Intention to Evók Life with Radiah Rhodes

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#420 – Using Intention to Evók Life with Radiah Rhodes

There are certain words that get tossed around the personal development space and are often used without much thought or accuracy. It could be argued that one such word is “intention”. It’s not uncommon to hear someone say “What is your intention for the day?” and often the question is simply implying “Where is your focus going to be today?” But, what if the concept of intention was much broader and actually about who you are being in your life? How you are showing up. Your frequency. Your “come from”.

In this week’s episode, I’m so thrilled to dial up an expert who has created an entire well-being company (Evók Life) rooted in the idea of powerful intention. I’m chatting with the incomparable Radiah Rhodes on what intention truly means, and we dig into the powerful Intention Scale tool she’s created to help aid in analyzing how you are operating as it relates to a certain goal you want to achieve. For example, if you are looking to make a shift in your career, are you operating from a place of Wishing? Resisting? Avoiding? What would shift for you if you were working toward that goal from a place of Believing, Knowing, or Embodying? Like, everything, amiright!?

Tune in and find out how you can use Radiah’s Intention Scale to examine where you’ve holding yourself back from the dreams and ambitions you desire and the tactical steps you can take to start operating from a place of personal power. We also discuss the default behaviors (people-pleasing, control, perfectionism, etc.) that may be arresting your greatest happiness and fulfillment. Get some!

This pod explores:

  • Three ways we value “truth” in our society and how that influences your well-being
  • Radiah’s “Intention Scale” and how it can shift your fulfillment in all areas of your life
  • How we get caught up in constant “doing” and how to shift into powerfully “being”
  • Understanding our default behaviors and how they may be holding you back from happiness

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#419 – Intuition, God, and Spirituality with L’Erin Alta

[DIAL AN EXPERT] EP#419 – Intuition, God, and Spirituality with L’Erin Alta

Unless you had some kind of utopian upbringing, it’s likely that you were taught how to use logic, reason, and rationale to dictate your choices and actions… to ensure you were doing the “right” thing. But, it’s highly unlikely that someone taught you how to be still, listen to your internal knowing, and lean on your intuition for guidance. In fact, many of us receive a shit-ton of messages about what God deems “right”, what our parents deem “right” or what society tells us is “right”. Nevermind what we intuit as “right”.

So, then you hear personal development peeps (possibly even me) tell you to listen to your intuition and what your “gut is telling you” and you’re like, “Ummmmm… Sure. I’ll get right on that. Right after I do my pros and cons list.” It can feel like a foriegn task to listen to your internal knowing when you have constantly leaned on everyone and everything outside of yourself to aid in your decision-making. 

This week on the show, I’m so thrilled to dial up an expert on the subject of Intuition. L’Erin Alta is a powerful medicine woman + mystic living in full devotion to her spiritual calling. She helps black women, femme, and gender expansive folk make money from a soul-filled place. Um, hello! In this rich convo, we discuss the concept of “God” and how that intersects with Intuition, the damaging conditioning of some religion, the connection between intuition and abundance, and what it looks like to lean into and allow your intuition to speak to you. Get ready for a handful of “ah-ha” moments!

This pod explores:

  • Understanding the definition of intuition and why it’s so tough for many of us to tap into it
  • Untangling guidance from “Source” and religious dogma
  • The #1 step to tapping in and honing your intuition
  • How intuition is directly related to our relationship with abundance

[AMY SAYS] EP#418 – How to NOT Lose Your Shit with Your Family This Holiday Season

[AMY SAYS] EP#418 – How to NOT Lose Your Shit with Your Family This Holiday Season

Find yourself dreading holiday functions with your family because it’s only a matter of time until your mom pesters you about why you don’t go to church anymore… or you aunt gives you shit for not having kids or not being married… or your uncle gets in a heated (uncomfortable) “discussion” about gun rights? Or perhaps you’re dreading the impending convo where your bro asks you for money. Again.

Even though the holidays are supposed to be merry and bright, they can often be the most stressful when it comes to dealing with our families. Enter years of baggage, a shit-ton of guilt, mix in some alcohol, and you have a family holiday that leaves you feeling like shit instead of connected with those you supposedly love the most. If this sounds any kind of familiar, all is not lost. And, believe it or not, you can totally take back your holiday experience, boundary your ass off, and consciously CHOOSE your focus this holiday. Even if your sister is an ass-hat.

This pod explores:

  • How to prepare for your family function ahead of time to set you up for success… even if your family is giving the circus a run for their money
  • What it really looks like to set up healthy boundaries and actually follow through on them
  • How to avoid (or end) uncomfortable conversations with the utmost grace
  • How to decide exactly what you want to focus on during the get-together… you know, so you can actually enjoy yourself
