Show Notes
As mindset coaches, we hear A LOT of limiting beliefs and narratives that have been picked up throughout one's life as a result of conditioning and past life experiences. Having coached hundreds of people between the two of us, we thought it would be helpful to share the MOST common limiting beliefs we help our clients work through.

Together, we explore the belief that success requires hustle and sacrifice, the idea of being ready before taking action, and the tendency to blame oneself for past actions. We also chat about the ignorance of the present moment (and why that happens), valuing one's own experiences and perspectives, and accepting what has happened in order to move forward.
If you are a human being living in a capitalist country, it would be almost impossible for you to have not picked up at least one of the mentioned beliefs! The good news is that these thoughts were learned, and therefore, can be superseded by new thoughts that are more supportive and aligned with the life you desire to live.
If you've been feeling like you are hitting a wall on your journey, listening to this episode will help you identify the belief(s) that's standing in the way.
Highlights:
- How the belief that one has to work hard & suffer to have a good life and scarcity are linked
- How the belief that one has to show up a certain way to make an impact or be accepted actually hinders your desire for connection and acceptance
- The fearful illusion of "falling behind"
- Re-defining "success"
- Why waiting to be "ready" never works
- Shifting away from punishment into acceptance

People pleasing, or authenticity suppression as we like to call it, is a natural adaptive mechanism humans have used for centuries to attain approval, acceptance, and ultimately, safety. While in conscious, small doses this social mirroring can help us feel connected and related to others, it can also begin to erase our sense of self and our confidence if used too much.
We can't believe it's been 3 years now since we decided to go ALL IN on the podcast. There’s been SO much healing, re-learning and letting go in these past 3 years and somehow it’s possible to sum up the hardest, most valuable lessons we have gained on our journeys together.
We are throwing it back to the incredible in-person conversation we had with Danielle LaPorte, where we explored a question so many of us face on our healing journey: When is enough, enough?
We're throwing it back to this transformational episode with coach Xavier Dagba about the "dark night of the soul." Xavier shares his raw journey—disappointing his parents, dropping out of school (on a full scholarship!), and even facing homelessness—before finally stepping into his true gifts.
Have you ever wondered, "How do I actually love myself?" or "Why don’t I love myself?"
