27: Jealousy Is Just A Part Of You

Our obsessions seem so magnified, so big and out of control and we let that become "who" and "what" we think we are.
Because we're so focused on our jealousy, we begin to believe it's the only thing we bring to a relationship; insecurity and jealousy.
Have you ever considered accepting that jealousy and knowing that it's just a part of you. It's not all of you.
I even guide you to pick the jealous part of you.

29: The Magic of Surrender w/ Kute Blackson

He's been on the Larry King Now show, Dr. Drew, Fox and Friends and now the Top Self podcast!
This episode's guest is transformational speaker and best selling author, Kute Blackson and he's here to help you understand and move closer to the magic of surrender.
As jealousy junkies, we have a strong feeling to control. Control our environment, and our partner's environment in an attempt to protect ourselves.
As you'll hear from Kute, when we control, we actually give up our power. We feel more insecure, more afraid, more in a scarcity mindset.
I think this beautiful line from his book sums it up:
"Surrender is the invitation to take all limits off of life so magic can happen. More than you can imagine, more than you could ever plan, more than you could ever fathom".
That is what I want for you. More than you could ever plan and more than you could ever fathom.
