OH, HI SELF w. Sandra Possing

This is the first episode in a short 4-part series about the most common ways high achievers get in their own way. In this episode, we tackle overthinking: what is is why we do it examples of how it shows up the costs of overthinking what to do instead In the subsequent three episodes, we'll tackle the similarly frustrating protective patterns of perfectionism, people pleasing, and imposter syndrome. If this episode hits home, please know that you're not alone. There are many of us out here! Share it with a friend to remind them that they too are not alone. This is a very common unhelpful tendency (aka a protective pattern), and one that we can absolutely shift with practice.

Want to communicate better? Not for the sake of winning an argument or being right, but for the sake of deepening your connection with your people? Then you came to the right place. In this episode, I give you my 5 top tips for communicating more effectively. They may seem basic, but if you actually take the time to get good at the basics, your communication and thus your relationships will level up, and fast.

Instead of resisting our triggers, we can learn to embrace (and even love) them! Here's what I've learned from my own experience of ignoring and judging myself for my triggers for years (spoiler alert: it just made things worse) and ultimately how I finally shifted my approach and trained myself to reframe them as a good thing and turn them into opportunities for growth and healing.

As I see with so many of my high achieving clients, ambition often leads to burnout. In this episode, I offer a different approach.

This week I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing a glimpse into how I facilitate transformation in my clients. They get great - and lasting - results, and often very quickly. Much of that is thanks to a simple framework I use that helps them heal their relationship with themselves, find clarity on who they are and what they want, and take consistent, aligned action toward their desires. As they begin down that path, we work on their mindset and emotions to navigate hurdles, and sprinkle in some manifestation magic to take things up a notch. While this is the framework I use with my high achieving clients (most of whom are already crushing it in their careers, but are seeking greater balance and fulfillment in their personal lives), it is applicable to most of us! Feel free to use it if it resonates.
