Microdosing Change: with Lisa Wimberger | #5

Show Notes

Welcome back to the "Hey, Wait" Podcast, hosted by embodiment coach, educator, and author Jay Moon Fields. Each episode we'll be sharing stories, insights, interviews, and practical tools to help you shift how you show up in your relationships, and in your life. In today's episode, Jay Moon Fields is joined by author, speaker, and founder of the Neurosculpting Institute, Lisa Wimberger. On her fifteenth birthday Lisa was–quite literally–struck by lightning. As a result of the trauma, she began to experience frequent seizures which were debilitating and which forced her to regularly confront near-death experiences. Lisa's "Hey, Wait" moment happened when she became a mother, and she realized that she needed to put herself first, so that she could put her daughter first. She began studying Neuroscience and Neuroplasticity, and she learned to train her brain and nervous system to override the seizures. Due to the techniques she now teaches through Neurosculpting, her last seizure was twenty years ago. Since then, Lisa's Neurosculpting technique has transformed countless lives. Throughout the episode, Lisa is incredibly generous in sharing personal anecdotes to express the value she's gained from her practice, including stories that she has never spoken in public before now. If you'd like to learn more about Neurosculpting, and to access Free Meditations and more, or to sign up for Lisa's "Congruence Retreat" coming this June 20-22, 2025, head over to the official Neurosculpting website at https://www.neurosculpting.com/.

If you have a hard time making decisions, or you've ever known what you wanted and talked yourself out of it, tune in as Jay breaks down how your body is constantly broadcasting loud-and-clear messages—if you can turn down the volume on your people-pleasing and fawning chatter! In this special solo season finale, host and somatic educator Jay Moon Fields brings deep insight into reconnecting with your inner voice, unlearning chronic fawning, and finally trusting your inner knowing. In this episode, you'll hear: * The exact 3-step somatic framework to hear, trust, and follow your inner knowing without constantly second-guessing yourself. * How to physically decode the distinct sensations of a bodily "yes" versus a "no" (and why past conditioning makes you override them). * How to dismantle the giant wall of fear, stories, and resistance that keeps you stuck when making hard decisions. * A genius somatic hack to get out of your head when you're caught in analysis paralysis—plus the subtle, powerful difference between inner knowing and inner guidance.
