Mind the Gap - Awakening with Stephanie Filardi

In this week's episode, Stephanie takes us on a journey to clear negative thought energy. Why is this so important? As she shared in episode 51: Tame Your Mind - also Step 3 in the process of manifestation - when you are up to big things, you will encounter negativity. Whether it’s other people saying “you are crazy” or simply absorbing the negative energy of people or situations - you must learn how to become aware of the negative energy you are holding and then clear it. If you don’t, you will fail to achieve your dreams. In this episode Stephanie leads us through a simple clearing technique to help you get back on track. Remember, what you give attention to - energizes (grows). As such, negativity creates more negativity. The reverse is also true and that is the good news - positivity creates more positivity, i.e. focus on and energize the positive. Let’s clear the negative and get back to the path of positivity which will support your prosperity! For support, reach out at: www.StephanieFilardi.com/activate Let’s go! You deserve it!

In this episode, Stephanie dives deeper into step two of manifestation - belief feeds desire (episode 50) to help you uncover your limiting beliefs. Limiting beliefs hold us back. They live in our subconscious mind and prevent us from starting or staying the course. They keep us stuck in patterns and prevent us from making lasting change. Many of us don’t even know what our limiting beliefs are!! If we want to manifest our dreams, we must know what beliefs hold us back so we can deal with them. Meaning, we uncover them and replace them with new empowering beliefs that align with what we are creating. Makes sense right? In this episode Stephanie shares the 3 main categories of limiting beliefs. She then shares 5 writing exercises to help you uncover your limiting beliefs. To support you, she is offering a FREE guided meditation designed to help you uncover and release your limiting beliefs.

In this week's episode, Stephanie interviews special guest James Kennedy to talk about what it means to really let go and take a leap of faith when making significant life choices. He ought to know about having faith --- in addition to being an outdoor enthusiast, he is also an Emergency 1st Responder, NCAA Coach, and Professional Rock-Climbing Instructor to name a few...

In this eye-opening conversation, James shares about his decision to take the path less traveled - and a leap of faith when he and his wife decided to build a tiny house (300 square feet!) in the mountains to raise their 2 kids. Be sure to watch the video as he gives us a tour!

James talks about what it really means to let go and face our fears in order to follow the beat of our own drum. He shares many "gold nuggets" of wisdom that include feeling the fear and doing it anyway. His approach to life is refreshing - he demonstrates what it means to walk in faith and focus on things we can control, rather than things we can't.

Perhaps what Stephanie loves most about James is his ability to hold space for others to let go, be themselves, and discover what path works for them. When she met him a few weeks ago he was leading an outdoor adventure that put her face to face with a fear of heights + letting go -- when she jumped off a platform 50 feet from the ground in the middle of the woods. The whole time, Stephanie was literally shaking with fear and he allowed her to feel the discomfort -- to "stew in the soup" so to speak. James didn't force her to make the jump -- or make her feel bad about her choice if she decided not to. He accepted her fear and even the possibility that she wanted to back out.

Stephanie ended up making the jump -- one of the most terrifying experiences of her life. His ability to create safe space and also let her "be" was powerful. It was a reminder that whether we are jumping off a platform, or walking into a room of strangers, we all face fear. Accepting fear is part of life. It's what we do with the fear -- let it stop us -- or use it to move us forward - that gives life meaning.

No matter what you are facing in life - you will want to tune into this inspiring episode! It's rich and enlightening in the best way.
