Discover what’s holding you back personally and professionally. The reality is that there is no compartmentalization in life—what’s showing up in your personal life shows up in your professional life and vice versa. Outdated programming and recognizing patterns are key to cleaning up your life holistically. Topics include identifying which patterns are recurring in various areas of your life, self-prioritization, tapping into your intuition, and getting comfortable with speaking your truth.

Most of us have experienced a toxic relationship or two in our lifetimes. The challenge with toxicity is the subtle way in which it programs you to interact with others, subvert your own needs, and cater to the toxic individual in order to avoid their reactions. Toxicity in close personal or working relationships can poison your ability to move forward in every aspect of your life. True empowerment means taking on even the toughest of relationship dynamics. Topics include recognizing the subtle signs of toxic behavior, how toxic behavior you are tolerating is impacting you, why it’s necessary to limit toxic exposure in the transformation process, and how to quickly diagnose interactions as toxic in the future.

Authenticity is the key to living a truly fulfilled life, yet society has taught us that success is defined by tangible achievement. We strive to meet societal, cultural, and familial definitions of success and often wonder why we feel as if something is missing when we’ve achieved those measurable goals, having neglected the intangible elements that fulfill us emotionally and spiritually. The reality is that when we strive to meet the expectations of others, we resign ourselves to fitting into a box, settling for less than we deserve and are capable of. Recognition of programmed behavior and thought patterns is critical to transforming your mindset, allowing you to go forward living a life empowered by self-awareness and confident self-expression.

High-achievers engage in learned behaviors that allow them to reach a certain level of success, but fulfillment often eludes those who have achieved success on paper. When success begins to feel like stagnation, it’s time to look at outdated thinking and behavior and to upgrade your mindset to make true fulfillment possible. Topics include recognition of stagnation, low expectations, limiting beliefs, tips for what to stop doing and what to do instead, and how to move toward a new way of achieving that doesn’t put you last on the list of priorities.
