Episode #31: Identifying Limiting Beliefs
04/04/23 • 41 min
If you've ever tried to implement new habits, you know about limiting beliefs.
We make a decision to make a change and then we get solid within ourselves that this is indeed what we are going to do. Resolve.
The first few days, it's all great... but then it's a bit of forcing and white-knuckling our way through.
And then all that inner talk happens... inner critic, inner conflicts, inner stubborn adolescent... and we start thinking, this is impossible.
But what we need to remember is that it’s just our programming. Doing new things can be challenging and motivation only gets you so far.
That's why this week, my guest, Sarah Thomas (@burnfatandfeast), talks to me about limiting beliefs and how we can move past them.
You'll hear:
- Sarah's journey from being an overweight child to today (1:58)
- The impact of people close to us (8:46)
- The importance of self-talk and how to train it (17:33)
- How to start showing up like you want to (25:14)
- Aligning our choices (29:09)
- The limiting beliefs we've had (35:27)

Episode #30: About Having It All...
If you are Gen X, then you are familiar with the stories that you could have it all if you just worked hard enough.
And it does seem like some people are able to do it... at least from their Instagram stories.
My guest, Dr. Lisa Petty, has done the research on midlife and she has a lot to say about 'having it all" and what we truly want.
In this juicy conversation, we'll cover:
- What alchemy in midlife means (5:39)
- The pressures of Gen X women (9:32)
- How do you know who you are? (15:42)
- Why we're so judge-y(24:06)
- We're all creative (32:37)
- How we get inspired answers (36:58)
ABOUT DR. PETTY:
Dr. Lisa Petty started her career as a holistic nutritionist and health researcher, and quickly became recognized as a speaker, journalist, award-winning author and media health expert. After several years coaching women who struggled to follow through on their health goals, Lisa earned a PhD for her research on how midlife women experience self-care in the face of the social pressures on them to be perfect in every facet of their lives. Her new book “Forget About Having It All: The Midlife Woman’s Guide to Creating the Life you Want” is a combination of research findings and Lisa’s own story of midlife self-discovery. Through a combination of research and woo, Lisa now helps midlife women navigate midlife and create the life they really want. Learn more about her program, Midlife Alchemy on her site.

The Inviting Shift Podcast - Episode #31: Identifying Limiting Beliefs
Transcript
Welcome back to the inviting shift podcast. I'm your host, Christina Smith. And I am super excited to talk about this topic today. And one of the main reasons we don't make change is because somewhere and inside we have this voice, these limiting beliefs that stop us from really believing that we can change. And when we don't know if we can change, if we're kind of flapping on that, what happens is, we go back to our old old defaults. So to
