{People-Pleasing Exposé} How I Broke the Toxic Cycle of Putting Everyone Else before Myself EP390

Doing the “right” thing is based on bullsh*t.

I’m not talking about integrity, ethics, or human decency here…I’m taking about what we’ve been programmed to believe is the “right” the “smart” the “safe” life path.  

Get good grades, go to college, get a job in Corporate America and keep climbing that ladder…the American Dream. 

With the silent, unwritten promise of “if you do, you will have a great life and be financially solid.”

SAYS WHO?!!

Since when does a one-size fits all approach work for anyone? It doesn’t work with weight loss, it doesn’t work with marriage, it doesn’t work in business….so why in the hell would it work when it comes to making money ???

Doing the “right” and what I thought was the “safe” thing prevented me from fully sharing my gifts for well over a decade.

If you’re feeling stuck or trapped in any area of your life right now, whether it be with your partner, your job, your business, where you live…I want you to ask yourself these questions…

> Who says you can start a new career or business whenever you please?

> Who says you can’t make more money than anyone in your family, while working from home?

> Who says you can dream BIG and then follow those dreams until they become your reality? 

The only person saying, “you can’t” or “you shouldn’t” is that voice in your head, plus maybe some lame people around you who are too afraid to go after their dreams.

We are already two months into 2022, if you haven’t noticed the older you get, the faster time goes by…Do you want keep letting your life pass you by settling for “safe,” or take the damn risk and at least GO FOR IT?! 

What story would you rather your grandkids hear about you? 

I’ve never regretted leaving the “safe” and conventional life behind, even when things feel like pure chaos…because I’m now LIVING instead of merely surviving.

EP 765 The Final Shedding Required for the Biggest Quantum Jump of Your Life

If you have been feeling restless, emotionally raw, impatient with your old patterns, or like your current life suddenly feels too small, you are not imagining it.

As we close out the Year of the Snake and prepare to enter the Year of the Fire Horse on February 17, 2026, we are moving through a rare 60-year transition cycle associated with identity shifts, shedding outdated patterns, and stepping into a faster, bolder chapter of life.

This episode explores the final shedding required before a major quantum jump, why this phase can feel emotionally intense, and how to stop delaying the version of you that is ready to move forward.

Instead of surface-level motivation or spiritual bypassing, this conversation focuses on honest self-reflection, releasing emotional attachments, confronting resistance, and taking decisive action so you can move into your next level with clarity and momentum.

EP 764 2026 Glow Up Protocol: (The Boundaries) How to Set Healthy Boundaries Without Guilt in 2026

This episode of the 2026 Glow Up Protocol is all about boundaries.

Not the cold, harsh, push-people-away kind.
But the kind that protect your energy, your peace, and your future.

Most high achievers think burnout comes from working too hard. The truth is much simpler: burnout comes from weak boundaries.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted, resentful, overwhelmed, or stretched too thin, it’s not because you care too much or work too much. It’s because you’ve been saying yes to things that should have been a no.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to set healthy boundaries without guilt, fear, or anxiety — and how to finally stop overgiving to the point of losing yourself.

EP 763 2026 Glow Up Protocol: (The Being) How to Feel Like Yourself Again and Become Who You’re Meant to Be in 2026

True change in 2026 doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from becoming someone new on the inside first.

In this episode, we go beyond surface level self-improvement and get into the emotional, psychological, and energetic work of remembering who you actually are and deciding who you want to be next.
