By Simply Authentic

This podcast was created as part of a journey of discovering our truth within. Each episode covers various tips, lessons, and ideas, as well as the struggles and hurdles I’ve had to overcome while discovering the truth of who and what I am - my authentic self.

I believe that we all have the ability to create whatever life we desire. I also believe that one of the keys to doing this is through authentic action. When we act authentically, endless possibilities become open to us.

How to Love Yourself

How to Love Yourself

How many times a day to you look at yourself in a mirror? Do you love what you see? Even if you don't love all of what you see, do you love WHO you see? If you don't, do you know how to start loving yourself? Or do you even care if you love yourself at all?

Today I'm going to share with you the importance of loving yourself and how to start doing it or get even better at it. Because, if you don't, you will never be able to live the life that you so deeply desire.

This episode is a spontaneous creation, inspired by a moment of realization that I experienced just a little while ago. The expanded perspective that it provided me, I felt, was important enough that others may benefit from it as well. I hope you enjoy it.

One word: Limitless

One word: Limitless

Life is limitless. What you are capable of accomplishing is limited only by the limits you create for yourself or that you allow others to create for you. Now, this doesn’t mean we don’t experience some ups and downs as we go through life. And for some of us, those ups and downs can seem a bit on the extreme end of things.

The story you are going to hear today is from a man who has experienced some rather significant ups and downs - to the likes of which many of us may have simply given up on life altogether. But instead of succumbing to depression, or discouragement, or having a bitter attitude toward the world, he overcame his obstacles with purpose and strength like never before.

His name is Legacy Patino and he’s with me today to share his story. At the end of the podcast, he also shares a very unique perspective that will give you something extra to ponder today. I’m excited to share his story with you and I hope you enjoy it.

To learn more about Legacy Patino or Limits Don't Apply, you can find him on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram using @LimitsDontApply. You can also search for him by name through LinkedIn.

Our Power to Create with Kristy Walsh Santos

Our Power to Create with Kristy Walsh Santos

This episode is a continuation of an interview I had recorded with a woman named Kristy Walsh (now Kristy Walsh Santos) where she shared her inspiring story of transformation and an amazing shift in perspective that has forever changed her life. However, there was more to the story that I didn’t have time to share in a single episode.

So In this episode Kristy and I talk about our power to create and manifest the life we want. We also discuss our views for where we think things are headed and how we can help future generations retain the information and the gifts that we were all born with. Portions of this interview left me speechless. I left the pauses in the interview, so you might be able to pick up on the times when I didn't even know what to say. Enjoy!

Breaking Free with Kristy Walsh Santos

Breaking Free with Kristy Walsh Santos

Back in April I had the pleasure of interviewing a woman named Kristy Walsh (now Kristy Walsh Santos). Kristy was raised in Eastern Europe in a strict Catholic family. She has lived in the US for a number of years and like many of us, conformed to what society deems as the "normal" or the "expected" course for life. She experienced ups and downs in her life, but then, in August something happened that changed her life forever. 

This is a story of a woman and her transformational shift in perspective that has changed her life for ever. She has broken free, and isn't looking back.

The Magic of the Universe

The Magic of the Universe

This was an impromptu podcast that I recorded on my phone while sitting in my car at the school bus stop, waiting for my kids to arrive home. I had just finished with an amazing interview with someone for the Simply Authentic podcast. Her story was amazing to hear and there were parts of it that simply left me speechless. Today's podcast highlights some of my own moments of enlightenment through this incredible interview. I still get chills listening to this recording and I hope you find it just as inspiring as I did.

How Intuition Changed His Life - w/Guest Scott Wanless

How Intuition Changed His Life - w/Guest Scott Wanless

We all have been given the gift of intuition, but following that intuition or trusting it to lead you in the right direction isn’t always easy to do. For many of us it takes practice and it’s more of a learned skill. As children we do it without thinking. But somewhere in the process of growing up, we begin to doubt ourselves and forget how to listen for and follow our intuition.

Today I have a special guest with me, Scott Wanless, who has mastered the skill of listening to his intuition without questioning the information he receives. Because of this, he has had some rather profound experiences in his life. 

I am excited to have Scott on the podcast today to share his story about how listening to intuition has changed his life for the better.

Energy is Everything - Learn How to Harness It

Energy is Everything - Learn How to Harness It

There is a direct correlation between the energy you emit and everything else that you experience in your life.  On good days you feel good. On not so great days, you don't feel like yourself. Your mood isn't the same. Your energy feels lower and your productivity level is also low, if not non-existent altogether.

In this episode, I share with you how I learned to harness my energy from within and how you can do it too to get more of what you want out of life.

Growth Means Facing Fears and Embracing Change

Growth Means Facing Fears and Embracing Change

In order to grow, we must embrace change. To do that however, we also must face our fears.

Fear and change are two of the biggest stumbling blocks that we face when it comes to unleashing our passion and stepping into our own power. And I’m no different. 

In today's episode, I share with you my story of how I've overcome my fears and started to embrace change in a big way - much bigger than anything I've ever set out to do before. At the end of this episode, you'll also learn of a special opportunity that will only be available for a limited time. So don't miss it!

11 Ways to Overcome Laziness Syndrome

11 Ways to Overcome Laziness Syndrome

Before you skip over this episode thinking you don’t need to overcome ”laziness syndrome" let me ask you this:

What is the number one reason we don’t accomplish so many of the things that we say we want to do? Is it lack of resources? Is it because we’re afraid to take the leap toward whatever it is that we want? Is it simply a lack in confidence? Or maybe, just maybe, could it all boil down to something a lot more basic – the “laziness syndrome.”

Listen to today's episode to discover several ways that you can overcome laziness when it next strikes.

How to Bounce Back from an Emotional Funk

How to Bounce Back from an Emotional Funk

When the Phrase "Self-Improvement" Makes You Cringe

When the Phrase "Self-Improvement" Makes You Cringe

For many of us, the idea of self-improvement brings up uncomfortable feelings and resistance. It feels like work and seeing the value or the benefit of something like it is hard to weigh. But we know it's a good thing. So how do we get past all of that and better yet, how do we know when we need to incorporate self-improvement into our life?

How to Release an Emotional Trigger

How to Recognize Your Emotional Triggers

How to Recognize Your Emotional Triggers

Like many of us, I was never taught how to recognize my emotional charge or trigger within my body, let alone what to do with it if I had. Many of the situations that trigger us as adults, do so because of things we experienced as a child. The key to overcoming these knee-jerk responses is by first learning how to recognize when they're happening.
