🌟 Overthinking isn't your superpower – Right Thinking is. 🌟 "If you could solve all your challenges by thinking and obsessing over them, then overthinking would have been a superpower." – Collins Alunomoh Let’s face it – if obsessing over problems worked, we’d all be superheroes by now. But here’s the truth: endless worrying creates chaos, not clarity. The real secret? Focus and learning the art of right thinking. Your thoughts shape your world. When they’re dysfunctional, they block your progress, peace, and joy. It’s time to break free and take control of your mind! 💡 Here are 5 tips to help you control dysfunctional thinking: 1️⃣ Pause and Breathe: Interrupt your negative thought cycle by taking slow, deep breaths. This helps calm your mind. 2️⃣ Question the Thought: Is this thought true? Is it helpful? Question it and see if it's really worth your attention. 3️⃣ Limit Your Time on Problems: Set a timer. Give yourself a specific amount of time to think about a problem, then move on to solutions or action. 4️⃣ Focus on Solutions: Shift your mindset from “What’s wrong?” to “What can I do about it?” Focusing on solutions puts you back in control. 5️⃣ Seek Professional Help: Don't struggle in silence. A professional coach or therapist can give you the tools to master your mind and stop overthinking. You deserve peace, clarity, and focus. Let go of the endless loop of thoughts, and start creating the life you truly desire.

I help my clients recognize patterns that are counterproductive to achieving their goals and living fulfilled lives. Often, these patterns are so subtle that they've accepted them as their "normal" and as part of who they are as individuals.   But if that were truly the case, why would it be so mentally draining and sometimes challenging to achieve the desired results? Why would anyone feel dissatisfaction, a sense of inadequacy, and even frustration with themselves? Did this behavior came as our default factory setting?   We're spinning our wheels but not making desired progress. This drains our productivity and focus because we're unable to identify where our internal wires have been disconnected.   Time's up. It's time for a check-up. Reconnect.   We need to realign ourselves with what throws us off so we can achieve results that match the effort we put in. This way, we can get to the next level, balance our lives, and flow with whatever comes our way.   I'd like to invite you to look after your most valuable asset and give it a chance to shed what's no longer serving you, revitalizing it with new perspectives. Unlock the internal counterproductivity with clarity, with a deeper understanding of your patterns, so you can release the brakes holding you back from being your best self. That's the power of intuitive coaching, and it's here for you to evolve your winning formula.   Namaste   #Personaldevelopment, #selfawareness, #empowerment, #Executivedevelopment, #Careerdevelopment 

Are you stuck in the endless cycle of self-criticism? That harsh inner voice keeps you spinning, doesn’t it? Beating yourself up won’t move you forward—it only holds you back. You can have all the tools in the world, but if you’re using them to fuel self-doubt instead of self-growth, it’s impossible to truly thrive. The Breakthrough You Deserve: Self-compassion is the bridge from self-doubt to self-trust. 💫 Start with a simple daily check-in: How are you, really? Where are you mentally, physically, and emotionally? Honesty with yourself is the first step. This is your chance to pause, feel, and process your emotions instead of avoiding them. When you meet your feelings with curiosity instead of judgment, you unlock the energy that’s been keeping you stuck. 🌬️ You’ll start to release what’s weighing you down and step into the love, freedom, and worthiness you’ve always deserved. 💖 ✨ Imagine this: Waking up with a deep sense of trust in yourself, knowing you’re capable of navigating life’s ups and downs with ease and confidence. That’s what happens when you stop fighting yourself and start leaning into self-compassion. 🌱 If you’re ready to leave self-doubt behind and rewrite the story you’ve been telling yourself, I’m here to walk with you. 💫 Let’s create the shifts that will empower you to feel aligned, supported, and deeply connected to your true self. 📅 Book your FREE 1:1 Connection Call today to explore how my Soul Space Coaching can guide you into a life of ease, trust, and emotional freedom.

I reckon I have been on a 20+ year journey of ‘self-improvement’. In my attempt to modify my thinking and behaviours, allay fears, improve my self-image and purge my negative beliefs and emotions, I have spent countless hours and dollars on books, workshops and courses. What I finally came to realize is that nothing is wrong.  All my self-criticism, self-doubt and self-depreciation have been from the same source.  All the times I felt not good enough, believed I did not do my best or felt responsible for annoying or disappointing others had the same origin.  All my perceptions of inadequacy, sub-standard performance and failure came from one place – my insecure thoughts. What I know now is that we are Thinkers, but we are not that which we think. Random thoughts are constantly flowing, like packages on a conveyor belt.   We can't control what thoughts show up but we can choose which ones to pay attention to.  But how might you ask, do we know which ones to give consideration and energy?  Everyone has a built-in ‘thought detector system’ that alerts us to the quality of thoughts. Unhelpful thoughts evoke low feelings, scary thoughts give rise to fear and self-depreciating thoughts bring discouragement, even hopelessness.  When we engage with these thoughts, they give rise to our self-concept or ego if you will.  We start to believe we are “that which we think”. Once you understand how it works, any time you feel discouraged, fearful or frustrated, know your temporary thinking gives rise to your feelings. When you realize you don’t have to do anything about your thinking or how you feel, you automatically return to the present and to your capacity to do cool stuff. Releasing your “thought up” self-concept is the most effective way to free up your creative powers to visualize, strategize and achieve your desired impact and income faster. Scrutinizing your self-image wastes time, energy and creative mental capacity. It has you focusing on you and not your unlimited potential. Forget about you. Life will feel simpler, easier, more fun and more fulfilling. #mentalhealth #creativity #wellbeing #emotionalhealth #highperformance #productivity #success #leadership #clarity #confidence #motivation

The biggest obstacle to growth is often the part of ourselves we can't see. The key to growth is having someone to help you point it out and turn internal friction into a path of clarity and game changing results.

🌱 Clearing Clutter to Foster Focus and Purpose 🌱 In my work as a life coach, I’ve seen how physical clutter can mirror the mental and emotional clutter we carry. When our environments feel chaotic, it’s often challenging to stay focused, make clear decisions, and feel connected to our purpose. For clients, decluttering becomes more than tidying up—it’s about creating an environment that fosters peace, productivity, and a deeper sense of clarity. Together, we look at why clutter appears and work through any emotional attachments tied to it. Through intentional steps, reflection, and incorporating additional resources, my clients begin to experience a renewed sense of focus and peace in both their spaces and their lives. This journey isn’t just about organizing; it’s about making room for personal growth, connection, and purpose-driven action. When we clear away physical distractions, we’re able to open our minds and hearts to what truly matters. If you're ready to reduce the mental and physical clutter holding you back, let’s connect and create a path toward more intentional, purposeful living. 🌟 #LifeCoaching #Declutter #PurposeDriven #MentalClarity #MindfulLiving #HolisticCoaching

A healing journey day 17: Personal accountability: taking ownership of the dumpster fires that are happening in your life. I'm wanting more soulful connections in friends & entrepreneurship. Which means, more inner work. And depending on the scenario, whether it's a year to five years, sometimes we don't learn the lesson until later on in life. But the more ownership you take, the more self awareness you have on how to navigate through life. Let me tell you a story of how I sabotaged a business deal. Does life seem to be unfair? Tough shit, thats life. Sometimes things happen & don't know why they did. Regardless of what happens, we need to take ownership. These are the lessons that can become skill sets. If there is a scenario that keeps happening & blowing up in your face, take a step back, breathe & analyze the situation. If this is a repeated pattern, what are your current thoughts about yourself? How does this make you feel? Are you able to date back to when this pattern very first started? If you have some type of copping mechanism like eating the entire fridge, doom scrolling, substance use? See a pattern of escaping your reality to numb what's happening...? This is a program we run on subconsciously and can also be called energetic signatures. If you're wanting to learn more about energetic signatures, I'm creating a new service that is a personal growth strategy session. This session intertwines psychology elements working with defense mechanisms that prevent personal growth as the feed on what's stored in your subconscious. We examin emotions, thought patterns & behaviors that could be igniting the fuel to whaever chaos is happening in your day to day life, aka taking personal accountability.

Do you ever judge yourself for the life you have created knowing you created it? What if you were the person today that you seek for tomorrow and all that you need is a shift in mindset? When you understand that what you receive today you created from yesterday’s thoughts and actions, so if you’r not happy with this, then create the change in your life today that you want to see tomorrow.  For tomorrow you will judge today once more.     Confused? What I have found is that most people I speak to have a misguided idea of Why they do what it is they do.   When they receive what they have been asking for, they remain judgmental and dissatisfied as they are unclear of what they are working for. If you want some clarity over WHY you do what you do, ask yourself: “Why am I doing (state your business or action)?”  Then ask: “Why is this important to me?” Ask this 7 times. No less and no more. Just 7. Once you understand your deep seated WHY factor, align this with WHO you want to become and you find peace, fulfilment, satisfaction. When you Design your life and no longer leave it to default you will no longer find the desire to judge. Comment below if you are surprised by your 7th answer. DM me if you get stuck as sometimes a 2nd person can help you discover that ——————— From Burn-Out to Break-Though.  I help Business Owners and Leaders live by Design and not by Default. #InternationalSpeaker #Breathwork #TransformationalCoach #LiveByDesign #PreventBurnout
