The Body, Brain & Soul Podcast

Welcome! I'm so happy to bring this mini episode to you where I share my awareness around the environment I desire to create for my daughter to flourish and thrive, and the connection between the specific areas of growth that this has opened up in me, including; my beliefs, limiting beliefs, fears, values, and exploring my shadow side.
I'm also excited to share with you my new Magic Hour Membership and how you can step into your own journey of sacred self discovery while being held within community. For more information or to join today - http://sarahmcerlean.com/magic-hour

Welcome to the Mama Brain Podcast!
In this mini episode I share my awareness around my relationship to productivity. I know I'm not alone in feeling like as a Mama, coach, teacher, partner, friend, sister, etc, etc, etc, that I need to be in a constant state of productivity. But when I started to reflect on how that was showing up in my life - in the space of judgement and guilt - I realized that it may no longer be a way I wanted to live.
Through a series of thought-provoking questions (see below), I began to have insights that enabled me to explore my beliefs and story around productivity and find a magical new paradigm to step into - one of presence, ease and flow.
I hope this episode offers you the ability to explore how you're showing up in your own life - whether it be in your relationship to productivity or something else - and find a more authentic way forward; one that feels good and creates the space for you to become the most self expressed version of you!
The questions I journaled:

• What does productivity mean to me?
• Where did I learn to be productive?
• How does being productive serve my values?
• How does being productive feel in my body?
  • Before
  • During
  • After
• In what ways might the need to be productive be harming me?
• Fill in the blank:
  • Being productive means...
  • If I’m productive, I’m...
  • If I’m not productive, I’m...
• What does it mean to not be productive?
• Does being productive feel like a fit for me?
  • Is it in alignment with my values, my energy and how I want to live my life?
• Is there another way that might be a better fit for me?

I also tapped into this filter to ensure I'm present to my life:

• Is this in alignment with my values?
• Am I currently living in alignment with my values?
• Can I continue to honour my priorities and my values and fully be present to this new experience?
• Where am I in my cycle?
• Where does this new commitment land within my cycle?

A mini episode sharing a bit about my story, challenges and perspective on what is available to Mamas when we step out of the chaos and into epic co-creation with our lives.
It all begins with being able to ask the question "what do I want?", and then creating the space to dive into it.
What are the biggest challenges that Mamas face today? What's possible for us in our future? Let's share that journey together.

Welcome to the Mama Brain Podcast!

Through our weekly episodes we'll share our stories, connect with experts and provide resources for Mamas in every stage of their journey to step out of surviving and into thriving.

Today on the Mama Brain Podcast I share with you something deeply personal, something that has been a significant source of judgement and shame for nearly my entire life, and yet the missing piece, that once I allowed myself the space to observe it, I found growth, possibility, inspiration, compassion and purpose. Today I’m sharing with you my Money Love Story.

This is a practice that I learned when I took the Relaxed Money program with Kate Northrup. If my story resonates with you, I encourage you to join Kate’s new FREE Wide Receiver Program - you can register for the program here: https://go.katenorthrup.com/t?orid=381825&opid=157
This was by far the most personal, vulnerable and authentic public expression of my truth I’ve ever shared. But, if just one person listening resonates with this, if my story opens up something within you and becomes a catalyst for you exploring your own money story, then it will be worth it.

What we know is that when we heal our past, we create possibilities for an even better future. And, when good people cultivate wealth and abundance they create more opportunities and do even more good in the world. If you’re listening, I know you are one of those people.

Here are my top takeaways from part one of my money story:

1. Nearly all of my habits around money were formed unconsciously through environmental exposure to the people and experiences of my early life.
2. Although making and saving money had come easily to me, it also came at a time when I felt highly unsafe and rather than lean into my superpower of earning and saving, my nervous system dictated something different.
3. Throughout my adult life, I have always felt that I was doing something wrong by making money on my own and it’s held me back from being more visible in my field, offering more to the world and allowing myself to accumulate more wealth and abundance. This was due to an early experience where a family member made money illegally and the visibility of being associated with this made me feel unsafe, judged and even shamed by people I cared about.
4. I learned that my sense of value and self worth was tied up in how much money I had - BUT, that I would always be “less than” with or without money.
5. By uncovering all the unconscious beliefs and patterns, along with their roots, combined with regulating my nervous system, I’ve been able to heal my relationship with money and allow myself to pursue my ultimate dreams of cultivating wealth and financial freedom. Not only does this serve me in this lifetime, but also my daughter and future generations to come.

Thank you for listening. I appreciate you!
Keep smiling~
