Toni [00:03:31] So tell us a little bit about who you are and what kind of got you on this path. What's your vision? What is it that you're trying to.

Lisa Marie [00:07:12] The surgery is very complicated. The recovery was obviously brutal. It resulted in some nerve damage and some other chronic pain conditions that I still deal with every day. I don't talk about them, but I deal with it every day. And so there I was in 2014 and I looked up at God and I just said, you know what? I don't know what I'm doing. I clearly need your direction, so I'm just going to surrender like I have nothing. I can't force anything to happen anymore

Toni [00:10:44] Absolutely. I love how you found gratitude for even those hard times, because it really does are sometimes those things that give us the greatest strength to really accomplish what it is that we need to to accomplish here. So, share, there's a little bit more about what it is that you do and how it is that you help people.

Toni [00:15:13] I love that and I love how you say that you dove into the personal purse because really how you do one thing is how you're going to do everything. Yeah, if there's issues in one area that you aren't willing to address, then it's going to transfer over. Very true. And so many people, I find, you know, take what they're struggling with and they're able to help other people. And that's really their source of connection and getting out there. So it's it's a great place to start. So tell us a little bit more about your podcast that you're starting.

Lisa Marie [00:21:15] They found my car like four days later in the state capital, completely trashed, completely wrecked in the middle of a pandemic. Yeah. And so, you know, close to ten thousand dollars in damage. And it was a brand new car. So, of course, you know. But I mean, that all happened in about eight weeks. And so I kind of at one point I think it was when my car got stolen that at that point I just started laughing. I did. It sounds crazy, but that was my only response because I had I had been crying for weeks because of my mom. I would be had been crying because of the state of the world. I was so, so disheartened when I found out my foot was broken. He has physical exercise is super important to me. And I felt like, okay, well, they closed all the gyms, but at least I can use my elliptical rider at home. And then that got taken away from me. And I was like. You freaking serious right now?

Toni [00:24:12] I love that strong and powerful and a great message to share with people today is everybody. Everybody has their things that they're going through. Absolutely. Yes. So do you have any tips or advice that you can help people with increasing their resiliency during these times?

Toni [00:28:43] Oh, hugely. It's what an amazing blessing that you can connect with people all over the world and get this opportunity to, you know, hopefully make a positive impact in the world. Exactly. Yes. Now, I'm very grateful for that. I'm grateful for this opportunity. One thing that I've started practicing that I've found to be really useful. Being a mom of four kids and having lots to do, sometimes it's like I have to do this and I have to do that. Just getting out of that habit and not even saying I have to because every day I am so grateful for my kids and I get the opportunity to be there for them and do the things every day. And that simple mindshift has made a world of difference.

Lisa Marie [00:35:45] You know, like, I feel great that everything is falling apart around me, like that's a weird vibe, too. So just be. Be gentle with yourself, but don't do it alone. You don't have to be alone. Not in the world we live in.

EP 21 - Dr. Sabrina Rojek Shifting Your Sh*t

Sabrina [00:01:57] So we'll start with that and then let's get into it. So I've got a you know, we all have a story. That's our message to our message. And then whether or not you choose to do something with that. Use it to be able to help others. You know, then that's that's up to you. For me and my path and what I feel then to be my life purpose was absolutely to bump up against life in some of the harder ways possible so that I could have so many wonderful skills to share with other people. I'm joking a little bit about that, but I'm saying that kind of tongue in cheek of, you know, I. I've had a rough go of it. People have absolutely have had a harder go. But that perspective is what's helped me get through things.

Toni Jo [00:07:20] So tell us a little bit about your program that you've started and how people get out can get involved. That yes.

Sabrina [00:09:33] So that's what it is for. And shift your sh*t if you can be, do or have anything. We just need to give ourselves permission to unleash ourselves. So what was missing? So it's a support group. If you go we've got a Facebook group that we've got a public one. It's SYS unleashed.

Toni Jo [00:11:28] Where do I start? What do I need to do?

Toni Jo [00:12:43] Yeah, it is an attitude. They're contagious. And so finding a group that can and wants to aspire to more and to be in a better mindset is huge. So, yeah, I love that you're creating a community to allow people to do that.

Sabrina [00:12:57] So asking what really? It's what it was, what I needed, you know. And just even on like on a side, we were talking about business. Right. If you're becoming a business coach or if you're you've been in a in a while or you're thinking about that, you want to do it or what not and whatever. It's the life stuff that we take with us that this this becomes, you know, the thing. But it's it's you're looking for what your avatar is, right. Everybody says when we're in business, when you're in coach, I don't care what you're doing. You have to figure out who is your audience, who are you marketing to?

Sabrina [00:17:10] Even three times doing that. I don't know about you, Toni. Immediately. It overrides your brain and immediately your body kind of starts to drop in. Did you feel anything?

Sabrina [00:18:34] Emotional flooding happens. You cannot logically think. Our brains do not do it. You cannot think when you're in flooding. You can. And that's not where you find solutions. Right? That's when we need solutions. As one word freaks the F out when life isn't working. Emotional flooding. That's when you can't access them. So you have to do something. If you want to get to the solution, at the very least, not be freaked out and be able to calm yourself. So you can think just a little bit. You've got to have something in place that allows you to ground yourself immediately. And so that's really what Schifter should is about. Let's come together. Let's let's learn these tools. Let's learn with these practices are. But it's not just having the tool.

Toni Jo [00:20:38] Now, I love that and I love those suggestions you gave. And I can tell such a huge difference when I wake up. And I sent my intention for the day and I started off the way that I need to. Yeah. Versus those mornings when I wake up and it's like panic mode and relate and everybody's like, you know, it's the worst.

Toni Jo [00:24:59] So I love the life one can you say you're just a little bit about the business model and how those systems apply to business also make sense.

Sabrina [00:28:56] Maybe your brain already was moving slow or whatever, and then it's really hard. We think about it. We think it's really hard then to get motivated, inspired to muster the energy to do anything right. It's almost the state that we wake up in is what we expect for the rest of the day.

Toni Jo [00:31:56] Wow, that's powerful. And I love, you know, that really we are responsible for how we fill each and every moment. And there's things that are going to happen that are hard. But when you do have those tools in place, nothing is nothing you are not capable and able to overcome or it wouldn't have been given to you. And I truly believe that. I believe that everything is given to us for a reason so that we can attain the gifts that we need to help share and help others. You know, here during this experience.

Sabrina [00:32:32] It's the same idea you can be do or have anything. But you got there, you you that that became a possibility for us because we had done some work before. You know, you don't just arrive at decide, you know, that's a really hard reach to go from being in lax mentality. You know, we're even victim m...
