Come to the giddy up segment.
2
:I'm thankful that you're here.
3
:And today I was a little bit moved by
something and you know, I'm sitting
4
:here in my stocking cap in my barn
with my little heater blown at my feet.
5
:It is below zero.
6
:So it's one of those cold days.
7
:The sun is shining and it's
beautiful, but it was one of those
8
:days where I wasn't really able to
get outside for, uh, Morning walk.
9
:And so I decided to drive to the
community center and do a workout
10
:class with some inspiring ladies.
11
:So that was really fun, but on my way
there, I was listening to a really popular
12
:podcast that I love, but it kind of got
me thinking and I was thinking about my.
13
:own journey.
14
:And you know that I am just saddling
up to the best time in my life, right?
15
:It's like 40 and beyond ladies.
16
:And as I was listening to
this, Fun podcast host.
17
:She was talking about people pleasing and
she's got like a remedy and I actually
18
:have her book, which I'm gonna love
reading about how to get over people
19
:pleasing and just move forward and get
your mindset right and you know how
20
:much I love self-coaching and how things
have evolved since I, you know, had my.
21
:You know, since they spotted that
stage one, um, breast cancer,
22
:uh, all good, all behind me, but
it changed my perspective a bit.
23
:And so before that, I too always kind
of dug into that mindset and I do
24
:believe it's so important and I believe
that it was a necessary first step.
25
:I had a great coach that helped me
learn about mindset and how to change
26
:it and how to self coach yourself.
27
:But what I'm learning as I go through
this journey, and I'm actually writing
28
:about it, and it's going to be, it's
going to take me a time, um, to get this
29
:all written because I'm learning as I
go, but this is what I've learned so far.
30
:The first step is learning about
your mindset and you can go back and
31
:listen to my episodes, but we talk
about becoming aware of how we feel.
32
:Go get your feelings wheel from LisaKosky.
33
:com if you need it.
34
:Being aware of it as a first step.
35
:Being aware of your feelings is huge.
36
:Then you go to, you know, what is
the thought behind how I'm feeling?
37
:And that thought is like a belief.
38
:So it's either like a story or
something you're telling yourself.
39
:This is how I was coached.
40
:And then I was coached
to change that belief.
41
:And then my actions would follow,
which can work in some instances.
42
:What I've found is it
can't work in all of them.
43
:And that's because we have
to do a little bit more work.
44
:I'm sorry.
45
:It's not that simple.
46
:I mean, it's simple in a way
that it can, this can improve
47
:your life just to do this.
48
:But as I dig deeper, I'm feeling even
better and learning so much more,
49
:and I just want to share it with you.
50
:So what I kind of discovered is as I'm
moving along my path here, I took a
51
:course and this is in the show notes and
I highly recommend it by JJ Flazains.
52
:She is so amazing.
53
:Um, I took her course on core wounds and
she also has a mindset piece, which is
54
:very similar to how I was self coach,
but she has a little bit different, um,
55
:look inside into it where she looks at,
um, The feeling that we have is probably
56
:the negative feeling that we have, or the
unwanted feeling is probably from a need
57
:that's not being met and she'll walk you
through that coaching, which is helpful
58
:too, but then what changed everything
for me, which was like the second step.
59
:was her core wounds course.
60
:And that's where you look at, you know,
how everybody's talking about like your
61
:childhood and I've talked about it, um, or
even like things from when you're a baby.
62
:And it's not even anything
intentional by your parents.
63
:You can have the most loving, awesome
parents, but there's still things
64
:that you can misperceive or, or, You
make up a story in your head because
65
:you're tiny and you're smart for then,
and you're learning how to survive.
66
:But when I did that course,
that stepped things up a bit.
67
:So I was able to really look at, Oh.
68
:This is where that thought's coming
from because you have to understand it.
69
:And I think you have to know
where it's coming from and able
70
:to enable you to address it.
71
:And I know you heard me talk on
the giddy up section before where
72
:I talked about Bruce Lipton.
73
:Lipton, I'll put his book in here too.
74
:And he talks about how to rewire your
brain or to really change your beliefs
75
:that are there that aren't serving you.
76
:Um, you need to be hypnotized and, you
know, we can't all hire a hypnotist.
77
:So one thing that he said
was to make a recording.
78
:So once you delve in, figure out what
your core wounds are and what the things
79
:are that are really setting you up to.
80
:You know, suffer a little
bit when you don't need to.
81
:We want to feel joy in life.
82
:When you learn what those really
are, then you can do a recording
83
:and it kind of affirms you.
84
:And if you put your little headphones
in and listen to it as you're falling
85
:asleep, like one of them is I am.
86
:Completely loved by God.
87
:You know how important God is
to me, my father in heaven.
88
:So I, you know, I say that and I believe
it and it makes me show up different.
89
:There are other ones where, um, you
know, I think one is I can't rescue
90
:anyone and I'm not responsible
for how other people feel.
91
:I mean, there's all kinds
of them that I've dug into.
92
:So step number two was
JJ Flazain's course.
93
:The next thing that I
stumbled upon was NLP.
94
:I'm not going to go into depth
on it now, but it's, I think it's
95
:neural linguistic programming.
96
:If you listen to Joe Rogan, when he talks
to Mel Gibson, he's got a little blurb
97
:where he talks about, Hey, I stopped
smoking from a book that used NLP.
98
:And this is how he described it.
99
:He said the book.
100
:Just like said the things that were
bad about, I think it said what was
101
:bad about smoking and then it said, and
chapter seven, what's good about smoking.
102
:And he said, you turn the page and it was
blank and somehow that rewired his brain.
103
:And so I became very interested in this
and thankfully, you know, Marie Simpson
104
:is my functional assessment expert.
105
:I will also have her affiliate
link in the show notes because
106
:I've been working with her as well.
107
:But I reached out to her and I said,
do you know anything about NLP?
108
:And she said, yes, I'm a practitioner.
109
:So I started working with Marie.
110
:And what I've found is that the core
wounds really got me there a lot, but
111
:working with Marie has even stepped it
up more and I'm ready to just really
112
:heal, but it has really, because of
the way she asked me questions, it
113
:has really prompted me to know what I.
114
:what the belief is and how understanding
how that belief really isn't true and
115
:really getting in and reprogramming it.
116
:Now I know this is not giving you
a heck of a lot of information, um,
117
:about exactly how NLP works, but
that's because I don't really know.
118
:I just know it's working for me, But
I am planning on going further and
119
:maybe even getting certified because I
can see where it would be another tool
120
:in my toolbox to help me help people.
121
:Because, you know, this podcast
is about sharing what we've
122
:learned and helping others.
123
:And a lot of times we, you know, have
to go through a hard time on our own.
124
:We can't always just go
by someone else's story.
125
:But those stories have helped me even if
it's sometimes just on a surface level.
126
:So that's what I was feeling like,
passionate about letting you know in
127
:this little giddy up segment today.
128
:So there'll be more to come on NLP
and I will, I promise you, I am going
129
:to keep walking you through this
journey with me as I learn and grow.
130
:I want you to too.
131
:I want to suffer less.
132
:I want to saddle up to the
best times of our lives.
133
:Take good care.
