Could you turn 208 rejections into a story of triumph?

Join us as we sit down with Hayley Carbajal, a starseed coach and mentor, who shares her incredible journey of resilience and authenticity. Learn how Hayley navigated financial hardship and scarcity mentality, transforming them into a source of strength and fulfillment. Her candid reflections on living true to oneself, even in the face of overwhelming odds, provide a roadmap for anyone struggling with self-doubt and the pressure to conform.

Ever wondered if you could shift your reality by simply adjusting your mindset by 1%? Hayley opens up about a pivotal moment in her life when reducing her offer from $5,000 to $1,500 led to consistent clients and income. This chapter is a masterclass in the power of trusting oneself and reframing self-doubt. Hayley explains how emotions act as messengers, guiding us to release beliefs that no longer serve us. Her techniques for overcoming self-blame and shifting trust from negative outcomes to positive possibilities are both practical and transformative.

Is the Law of Attraction enough to create the life you desire? Hayley challenges conventional wisdom, proposing a higher level of consciousness where we see ourselves as creators rather than mere attractors of reality. We explore the limitations of affirmations and the importance of aligning with one's inner state. Hayley's wisdom on personal growth and courage offers valuable insights into overcoming fears and taking bold steps toward an authentic life.

Tune in for an episode packed with actionable advice and profound reflections that will leave you inspired to embrace your true self.

Ever wonder what could happen if you simply said yes to life? My guest Kimberly Braun invites us on her journey to discover the transformative power of embracing life's opportunities. Uncover her pivotal childhood experience of deep presence and how it shaped her worldview towards living from divine love. Alongside us, explore the concept that we are all here for a noble purpose, and the magic that happens when we let our love and curiosity for life break us free from our limitations.

Life doesn't come with a script, and Kimberly shows us that embracing each moment as a potential lesson can lead us to a deeper understanding of our human experience. The conversation turns to moments of silence and presence, and how these moments can become transformative. Kimberly shares her personal story of building a monastery from a moment of silence, reminding us of the importance of being open to the universe's synchronicities and order.

Our journey culminates in an exploration of inner stillness and surrender. Listen as Kimberly recounts her profound realization that she spoke about on her TED Talk and how surrendering to her core desires led to the creation of a permanent monastery. We discuss the challenges that arise after saying yes to a desire, and practices to stay committed, such as drawing close to inspiration and tapping into the infinite field of intelligence. This conversation promises to be an eye-opener on the power of surrender and the magic that unfolds when we stay true to our core desires.

How can we make the process of personal change not only effective, but enjoyable and easier to sustain over time?

Unlock the secrets of lasting personal change with behaviour change specialist Paul Levitin, who returns to our show with a fresh focus on transformation in all facets of life. Moving beyond the confines of health and wellness, Paul introduces a holistic approach to changing our habits, routines and beliefs. Together we navigate the complex science and psychology behind motivation, from evolutionary influences to the spectrum of individual drive, and why understanding these elements is crucial to real change.

Paul's 'EASIER' framework emerges as a beacon of hope for anyone seeking consistency in habit formation. It's not about gritting your teeth and pushing through; it's about making the process enjoyable and, well, easier. This episode is a treasure trove of strategies for those whose discipline wavers in the face of temptation, offering a new perspective on change that depends on enthusiasm for the journey, not just the destination.

We conclude this empowering conversation by highlighting the crucial role of enthusiasm in creating a fulfilling life. Paul and I discuss how reframing commitments and rekindling the joy in everyday tasks can lead to a more passionate pursuit of our goals. By finding enthusiasm in the process, not just the outcome, we unlock the secret to perseverance and ultimate success.
