• 880 | Using NLP to Get Out of Indecision

  In this episode, I share some insight on how I shift myself through indecision. The real issue isn't the decision itself but the time and energy we spend in the indecisive state. Prolonged indecision can lead to an energy leak, as we worry about disappointing others or making the wrong choice. I share the concept of training our brains to make aligned decisions more quickly and confidently. Our subconscious mind plays a significant role in our decision-making patterns, often leading us to avoid discomfort and fear associated with making choices. I encourage listeners to recognize that indecision is often rooted in outdated beliefs and fears, which can create a gap that keeps us stuck. I share a simple technique, future pacing, to help move out of indecision more quickly.

• 878 |  We Don’t Heal by Repeating the Story

  In this episode, I am sharing the early part of my journey that started with dealing with teen substance abuse, and trying to find the counselling and support that led me to group programs, counsellors, psychologists, and programs, turning over rocks to try to find solutions. In the process, I found the difference between traditional psychology and NLP, recognizing that I am not diagnosing or treating anything. I am sharing my experience.  I eventually discovered a crisis counsellor program that offered me practical guidance during moments of crisis, which was a game-changer for me. This experience led me to question traditional counselling methods, particularly the focus on past trauma, as exemplified by Freud's approach. Instead, I found solace and empowerment in Adler's future-focused perspective, which aligns closely with NLP. NLP is based on shifting our identity and focusing on the future rather than reliving and giving energy to our past traumas, easily allowing that to become our identity.

• 877 |  The Gift Inside Contraction: What Your Body Is Trying to Tell You

  In this episode, I discuss the visceral feeling of contraction that often arises when we face overwhelming challenges or opportunities or when a limiting belief is rising to the surface that is ready to be released. This physical response is our subconscious mind's signal to pay attention. Instead of interpreting this discomfort as a sign of inadequacy or fear, this is an invitation to see this contraction as a positive sign to release a limiting belief that no longer serves you.  HIGHLIGHTS 00:00:00 - Introduction to Contraction as a Gift 00:01:00 - Understanding the Subconscious Mind 00:02:30 - The Role of Limiting Beliefs 00:04:00 - Getting Curious About Contraction 00:05:30 - Client Example: Contraction and Money 00:07:30 - Rewiring Limiting Beliefs 00:09:00 - Personal Experience with Expansion 00:10:30 - Questions to Explore Your Contraction 00:12:00 - Embracing Contraction for Growth Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster Download “You Are Supported” Hypnosis and Subliminal Bundle HERE  Join the next cohort of OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification (kick-off in Oct 2025 in person or virtual) HERE Learn more about changing the Stories We Tell Ourselves Digital Program HERE.
