Erin Evans Podcast

Why are we so well versed at capping our joy and totally inadequate at planning for the best case scenario. Join Erin Evans for this solo episode on why your bad attitude is killing everyone's vibe.

As we age it is common for our minds to become more solidified. This will have us seeing what we believe about the world rather than looking with a curious eye. Slow down, spend time in silence, and remember cooking cutter is for baking, not living.

Faith is our commitment to that which is unseen and intangible. A lot of us place our faith in very UNFAITHFUL places such as wealth, institutions, people, and our own limiting beliefs. Who and what do you lean into when life gets shaky. How do you stay awake at the wheel of your own life?

Time is constantly moving forward, we can’t control its passage, and it reminds us that life is transitory. This sense of scarcity might have us living in a hurry and missing out on what is directly in front of us, the present moment. Time is not something to be managed it is something to be savoured.

Is trust given freely given or is it earned over time? Can it be rebuilt. Join Erin Evans for this solo episode on how we erode trust in our relationships and why now we must clean up our act.

Why is it so hard to let things go? Memories, grudges, relationships, jobs, and narratives about ourselves. We hold on because it feels safe, familiar, certain, and who knows maybe if we hang in there it will get better. I'm proposing a different way, what if we accepted and therefore released it all, the suffering, the history, the memories so we could create space for what is coming.

Many people are haunted by the shame of past mistakes which keeps them a prisoner of who they used to be. If you want to consciously create your future you must accept everything in your history.

Nothing in life is worth having unless we fully commit. A commitment last as long as it lasts; a night, a decade, forever. When the line of attachment blurs with the lifecycle of a commitment, we have become more obliged to morality than our truth. To stay too long leads to stagnation, to leave too soon creates more karmic loops of the same.The secret lies in how we begin. The energy is what creates our future, not the actions themselves. 

Let life take the lead…

From Engineers to Educators, Bankers to Barbers, the common thread that prevents a person from reaching their full potential is 'Imposter Syndrome'. A psychological pattern where self doubt has people fearful of being exposed as a "fraud." Imposter Syndrome is a sexy disguise for a dark hook in our psyche that believes life is a war and we are separate. Clean up on aisle blame. I love you!

What we think we deserve determines what we allow our selves to dream of and what we settle for. Join ERIN EVANS in this solo episode as she dives into how feelings of unworthiness can drive us to over perform, undercharge, and limit our lives.

You are responsible for your life!! Intellectually we know this yet many of us are more committed to our short comings than our possibilities. What is that you absolutely desire in this lifetime; loving relationship, more space to create, impact? What must you relinquish and how must you act to get what it is you want?

We are born to invent, create, make, design, guide; each of us has an innate talent of self expression. With no avenue to use our skill or passion we become muzzled by indifference. Indifference kills innovation and inspiration. Whether you are 36 or 63 dare to care and find a way to go beyond the norm of domestication.

Our voice is how we are perceived and how we build connections, to leave this up to chance is reckless. Whether you are saying I love you or I'm leaving, they way you speak impacts how the content is received. Here are the top 5 do's and do not's of owning a room.

No matter your title or ranking, everyone has a sphere of influence and plays the role of leader. Our attitude and actions directly impact those who work, live, and hang with us. It's time to take 100% responsibility for the ripples or tsunamis we cause based on how we guide others.

It's easy to be present in the moments we love, but what about the mundane moments of our lives; cleaning the toilet, waking up in the morning, sending a text.
