You Can't Believe Everything You Think

Welcome to A New life podcast with Pamela Jean where it's all about empowering women to empower more women. Get ready friends, to create a new life. And here is your host, Pamela Jean.

Hello my friends and welcome to this week's episode of A new life power podcast. I'm super excited about today's episode. I have titled it you can't believe everything you think. We've all heard the saying you can't believe everything you read. Insert social media. We've also heard the saying you can't believe everything you hear. The truth is you cannot believe everything you think. Why are you so hard on yourself? What's it going to accomplish? Friends, we have to stop whipping ourselves with shame and unbelief. And all of that starts with what we think. Self loathing and self anger are destructive patterns that are going to lead to guilt and self judgment. This really, really has to stop. It doesn't serve you or anyone else and your life. Have you ever been in a situation where you're feeling like some great momentum, things are changing, things are shifting, things are going great and then all of a sudden you get in your head, it's all you. You get in your head. It's time for you to start believing what is possible in your life. It's time for you to decide, to truly decide what is possible for you. Let me ask you this. What do you think is possible for your life right now? What do you think is possible for you? Pause for just a moment and think about this. Be really, really honest with yourself and be honest with your answer, whatever your answer is. How did you come to that reality? How did the life you're living today become your reality? First of all, you are where you are because of the choices you made. But why did you make some of the choices you made? Did you decide or did you allow someone to influence you? Did you choose or were you conditioned? Are you going through the motions simply to keep peace in your family? Are you living to please others while sacrificing your dreams and desires for your life? You know, many people are choosing a limited life because of how they were conditioned. An example of this is when I was growing up. It was drilled into me that a person would never be successful and live an abundant life of financial freedom if you don't have a college degree. For years I felt that I would always be limited to certain careers because I didn't have a college degree. And I can tell you that cannot be farther from the truth. I've been an entrepreneur and business owner for 32 years. That doesn't happen by mistake. And I didn't need a college degree for me to have the success that I have today. And really, guess what? That notion that you have to have a college degree to succeed is completely a lie. Are you aware of how many insanely successful and wealthy women that do not have a college degree? Have you ever heard the name of Mary Kay Ash? She's the founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics and has a net worth of $500 million at the time of her death. No college degree. If you're a cooking fan, you may have heard of Rachael Ray. Rachel's net worth is around $100 million. No college degree. Do you happen to know of a woman by the name of Debbie Fields? If you are a cookie lover, then you know Mrs. Fields. Cookies. Debbie has a net worth of 200 million. Also no college degree. Now, I'm not knocking people that do have a college degree. Not at all. That is absolutely awesome and fantastic and congratulations. I know you worked hard and you've earned that. But the reality is, whether you do or don't have a college degree, there is no bearing. There's no limits if you don't have a college degree. Now, I'm not going to go be a brain surgeon without a college degree. But that's okay. I don't want to be a brain surgeon. But to be successful in life, it's not required to have a college degree. And when you think about how you were conditioned, the conditioning happens when you were young, growing up. The list of women, my friends, who do not have college degrees that are wildly, wildly successful is long. It's a false truth. And for many a thought that was given to you by someone else. Someone else told me that I would not be financially successful or I would be financially limited because I did not have a college degree. There were many other conditions and thoughts that you carry from your childhood. Just because you grew up poor doesn't mean you're destined to be poor forever. Just because you grew up with divorced parents doesn't mean you'll end up divorced. And so on. There's so many examples of how we are conditioned as kids and young people growing up. But it's time for you to decide to be awesome in your life and to decide that you deserve an awesome life. It's time for you to take inventory of your thoughts and take responsibility for them. Your thoughts create your feelings. Your feelings create action. Your action creates results or lack of in your life. Friends, all of this starts with you and what you believe is possible for your life as 2021 comes to a close, I want you to think about 2022 and what that means to you. Did you know the number one and two New Year's resolutions are? Exercise, losing weight. How many times have you promised yourself that you would take better care of your health, that you would exercise more and that you would lose weight? And how many times did you not fulfill the promise you made to yourself? You know, when we make a promise to ourselves, that's the easiest promise for us to not fulfill. If we make a promise to someone else, you almost always make sure you fulfill that promise. So why don't you fulfill the promises that you make to yourself? Why don't you fulfill that New Year's resolution of losing weight, exercising, and being more healthy? You know, step number one to starting a health journey to lose weight is number one, establish your why. That is your very first step. And your why has to be bigger than you. Your why can't be. I have a wedding coming up in the spring and I want to look great for the wedding. That's all fine and good. And you may lose weight by that wedding, but what happens after the wedding? You most likely will gain all the weight back that you lost and then some. And then some. I have several friends that have been on some incredible health journeys that have done the yo yo effect of losing 50 pounds and gaining back 70, losing 100 pounds and gaining back 125. That happens. But the problem with that is not establishing the real why. The why has to be bigger than you. For me, my health and wellness is truly centered around living the longest, healthiest life that I can. There's some things in my life that I can't control. I can't control whether or not I end up being diagnosed with cancer someday. I can't necessarily control that, but I can control how I take care of my body and how my. How I feed my body. For me to be the healthiest that I can be, if I fall down at 70, I want to make sure that I'm healthy enough not to break a hip when I'm 70. And you might laugh at that, but that's okay. But for me, I want to live the longest, healthiest life that I possibly can that I am in control of. And I can control that through exercise and through what I consume, what I feed my body with. So what is your why? What is your why? Really stop and think about it. And it can't just be, I want to lose weight. You know, how Many fad diets have you been on? There's so many out there. I mean, and I'm not knocking the diets themselves because if you follow them, your mission will be accomplished. But where diets fail is it's not sustainable. It's not sustainable. I have some incredibly exciting news that I want to share with you. Today, January 3rd of 2022, I am starting a health and wellness success plan. Only six people will be accepted. Six. That's it. What is different about this plan is that you will have guidance and support for an entire year. The whole entire year of 2022, you are going to be supported. You will have accountability and you will have someone there locking arms, walking with you through the journey of your health and your wellness. The first six weeks, you will have weekly live coaching from myself and several other experts in the field of health and wellness. You will learn how to reach your ideal weight and maintain. Maintain it. That's the whole key, is to maintain it. You will learn the mental mess component that prevents you from losing weight and keeping the weight off. My goal for you is to understand the why behind the overeating and help you create a healthy relationship with food. Sometimes people stress eat. Sometimes people eat over anxiety, or you don't eat over stress and anxiety. Sometimes it's boredom. Sometimes eating is triggered by childhood emotions, childhood trauma. Through our program and our time of working together in. In the year of 2022, I want to get to the bottom of those issues for you. I want to help you lock arms with you and help you to be the healthiest version of yourself. Truly from the inside out, not the physical. The physical look is not as important as the internal feeling. And I want you to love yourself. And that's what this year is going to be all about. 2022 is going to be a new year where you create a new you. I'll also be introducing you to the wellness wheel concept that focuses on all areas of your life to help you thrive and become a whole. Throughout the year, we will have a support system, accountability partners, and you will learn wellness in a way that is easy and comprehensive. You will never need to count calories or macros or weigh your food. What would this be worth to you? Physical freedom. Yes, freedom from battling the bulge, especially after the holiday hangover we're all going to experience in a couple of weeks. If you're ready to invest in yourself, I mean really ready to invest in yourself and want to be one of the six, to start on January 3rd, you need to contact me today. This will fill up quickly. My team and I are ready to lock arms with you and help you change your life. I'm ready and willing to commit the next year to you. Are you ready to do the same?
