This week's episode my partner in crime and my biggest fan Danielle Ward turned the the tables and interviewed yours truly.

She grilled me with tons of questions on what it means for me to tell my story and Embrace Life Boldly. Enjoy!

This week's guest is my good friend Marie T. Sanizaiz. She is a life coach who for over three decades in various careers has helped people find peace exactly where they are on their way to where they want to be. Relate to Marie's story and what she learned along the way, how to follow your heart not in the cliche way, not in the oh, it's gonna be all butterflies and love. Understanding that following your heart is not always a feeling. It is asking yourself the question, why do you desire what you desire?

Marie talks about how for years she was not following her heart asking herself the question, Why didn't I fit where I was? Knowing as women, we know what we know we know when we're not supposed to be doing something, and we know where we're not supposed to be.

It is a beautiful thing when we can heal from the pain that resides inside us and see our lives as blissful as our desires.

Having that awareness to see our actions in all areas of our lives can bring up emotions that we all struggle with. When the awareness kicks in, that is when the true work begins.

I would love to hear your thought on this episode. Go to the comment section and write out your like and dislike and then sit for 30 seconds and wonder where that emotion stemmed from.

It is tough to surrender, I am pretty sure I practice it on a daily basis. And I can honestly say it is always the best part of my day.

This episode is all about my personal journey in the month of March 2023. I will be talking about how I completely surrendered in the moment. Listen to the whole episode because at the end I will be asking you a big question to ask yourself every day that will lead to a growth mindset.

All of us deserve guidance and a way forward. That is exactly what I do. As a Transformation and Spiritual Development coach, nothing is off the table when you allow yourself to gain grace along your journey.

Not sure about you but sometimes the pressures of life get pent up inside of me. All that pent-up energy doesn't do a body good. If you know what I mean.

This episode is a little meditation I did with a client of mine. Not only did it help the client but holy moly it was extremely powerful for me too.

The wild thing about it is. I did not rehearse this mediation nor have I done it before. I allowed and TRUSTED my higher self to lead me in the direction that was of and for the highest and greatest good of all. 

AND IT WAS POWERFUL. I LOVE WHAT I DO!

Sit back, relax your body, and enjoy the journey.

Until next time Keep Loving, Keep Growing, and Keep Embracing Life Boldly!

Do you have the awareness to know how much stress is in your life? 

Can you see yourself not reacting in fight or flight mode, even if you have or have not experienced trauma?

If so this is the episode for you. We discuss trauma-seeking behaviors that lead to habits that do not serve us any longer. 

Time after time I do things for other people and then I wake up empty.

The shit we go through as children, what we see others do, what we hear people say to us, what we can’t express or feel because we have been a bother to others. No wonder we try our whole adult life to justify ourselves to the world or even to ourselves there were crazy hard times when we didn’t have a voice.

LEVELS TO OUR TRAUMA MEMORIES.

What we went through impacts where we are today. There are levels to our memories 

1st level of memory: can’t seem to shake it, we keep going back to that memory to that time of the trauma hoping and praying to some day come out of it.

2nd level: black-out trauma where it is simply too much to even process that all we can do is numb ourselves. 

When we tweak and shift words to empower us. We are UNSTOPPABLE!

Face it until you make > Fake it until you make it. 

Negative events are a fact of life because they register powerfully. They have an uncanny ability to overtake our mental machinery. They can shut us down. But they don’t have to.

How do you move forward in the face of tragedy, especially when that tragedy is systemic and ongoing? How can you live in the light, in love, in positivity? How can you avoid getting bogged down in the negativity of the moment? How do you avoid the pit of depression when you are feeling overwhelmed, lost, powerless, or unsure of how to make an impact?

Being emotionally hooked is an addiction to feeling or even reacting to someone or something else's power that will make you powerless. Let's take back your power by learning a few tricks to unhook yourself. 

Did you know that fear can show up as anxiousness, envy, or people-pleasing? 10 out of 10 times when a strong emotion rears its head... It's fear

Can you count all the times you have talked about your body? When you did, did it cause this image of how you see yourself? In this episode, I give you the only thing you need to shift those patterns and habits of damaging yourself no more. Listen and please share with a friend, family, co-worker, grocery worker, or just anyone you come across. 

If you want to further this conversation send me DM, IM, email, or place a comment below. Let's chat.

This episode is my take on how make-believe and manifestation have to collide within one another and how fear and instant gratification plays a huge role in them both. 

Here are some tools to end the instant gratification roller coaster, work with your fear, and manifest.

A little metaphor about the layers and layers of blankets and the way it feels to make your bed. 

NONE of this information is saying don’t share don’t tell others don’t feel this is for you to know the difference, have awareness, stand in the pain, process emotions, and Be open to solutions after expressing yourself. Be open to the other person sharing as well. You have to know yourself and know if you are looking for validation, support, advice, or reflection. BE BOLD TO ASK FOR IT before you begin to dump or vent.

From the research on the psychology of Trauma Dumping vs venting, I understand that trauma dumping can cause an experience of more pain. This pain leads to more emotional setbacks as well as the increase of the habit in the inability to self-reflect or bring responsibility or accountability to our story about the trauma.

The wildest part is when we are venting, we become more aware of what we are expressing our emotions and thoughts about the event or person we are venting about.

Self-judgments are thoughts you have about yourself and you add meaning to them which in the end causes anxiety, anger, & depression.

Listen to the PODCAST where we talk about how we can put an end to Self-Judgement.

I am your Life Coach Tammy Ward here and my life has been a roller coaster, of abuse, struggles with self-doubt, and letting fear keep me from finding my way in the world. I was so tired of living a life that was not fulfilling and as I walked my way to an amazing spiritual journey, studied human behavior, and congnitive psychology (the nerd in me)  I finally buckled down and transformed myself from a girl who was afraid of my own voice to a woman who learned how to balance life, kick old habits to the curb, and transition my thoughts into making choices that best served me. 

And now I do that for all of you. I began my Life Coaching business in 2017 making my full-time job in 2019 once I retired from the Military and it has been amazing to offer services to help others gain confidence and clarity by shifting their thoughts towards building healthier habits and patterns, which allows for spiritual and emotional healing to occur. 

Welcome, all:

I am an intuitive life coach that uses my gifts to help people gain confidence and clarity by shifting their thoughts towards building healthier habits and patterns, which allows for spiritual and emotional healing to occur.

Often time we do not give ourselves enough credit. When we learn to celebrate ourselves we open a door to understanding our own individual strength.

I challenge you this November to celebrate yourself every day. To sit at the family dinner table when everyone is going around saying what they are thankful for that you celebrate yourself at that moment. GIve thanks to you. 

One of the reasons people resist change is because they focus on what they have to GIVE UP, rather than what they have to GAIN.

A few tools and exercises I teach my clients is

(1) Instead of saying, “I have to change this!” Ask yourself, “what am I resistant to?, what can I shift instead of change.

(2)  Take a moment to write down what you are resistant to. Is it conflict? Is fear? Is it growth?

(3) Clear your thoughts on the emotions you are experiencing with resisting, and choose what you would rather experience. Visual that experience. Feel that experience. Then take action!

I know learning what you are resistant to is not the easiest thing to handle, but breaking free from it can be just the thing that gets goals in life back on track.

Working through and sometimes with our emotions and feelings can give us awareness and answers to the question in life. When we feel our feelings you don’t have to figure out where our feelings are coming from, simply recognize they are there. 

FB and other social media outlets can be uplifting, mean, challenging, and fun. However, begin to notice your thoughts while you are watching them. If you find yourself having a response to them, STOP, SPOT, SWAP those thoughts. Choose YOU, not the Emotion!

I took a week and did a little exercise! 

The exercise is to sit with yourself looking into a mirror for 3 minutes a day. I used a full-length mirror but any mirror will do even if is the rearview mirror in your car. While I did this, I liked to play instrumental music like the sound of shamanic drumming, or loving HZ frequency music. You can simply YOUTUBE this.  feel free to use what feels right for you or don’t use anything at all. I often meditate to music without words, it helps me raise my vibrations and keeps me grounded in the moment. Your choice.

When we can send loving energy to our past that is a sure sign we have released the pain that came with it. Try the exercise, even if you have to shrink the time down. Just sit with yourself starring at you. 

I would love it if you would share your experiences, please make a comment, or simply share your thoughts about what you think about an exercise like this. 

Receiving guided information has been so profound on the daily actions I take every day to move me to live out my Soul's Mission for the highest good in life. My clients love it when a guide or spirit from a passed family member comes in to say HEY!! this is wuz up.... I love being able to be a messenger for the Devine. 

If you are looking for Intuitive Coaching or just an Inttuive Session to ask the beyond specific questions on life click the link below and let's get the ball rolling. 

It is my purpose to spread love and light to everyone out there and it is my mission to guide, speak the truth, and share the messages for myself and others to live their best life. 

Look I know it is hard to believe that you are worthy and that you deserve everything you dream of. But, it is not going to plop on your lap without taking little steps.

In all the conversations I have had with my guides, teachers, and angels, they all stress to me that LOVE is greater than passion, it is the origin of all life. Then entire Universe exists inside you. You want to be something or do something well guess what you have it already within you to be that. It is our human mind that tells you NO and begins to hate on you. From all the Yogis, mentors, shamans, and Guru’s in the world the one thing I have learned from all of them is that You must take the identity of who and what you want to become. once you do the vision of what needs to happen next will appear. It will be automatic because your belief is fully present.

We all have had those moments that are so challenging they disrupt and put us on a different course in life's journey.

What were some of your challenges and what were the lessons you learned from those challenges or perhaps you are still dealing with them? If you are then this is the episode for you. What would it look like if, right in the thick of it we took a deep breath and immediately said “Ok Universe what is the lesson I am to get out of this”? How much easier would life be for you? 

Remember that it takes a lot of energy to be a person but it takes no energy to be YOU!

Try this exercise:

Image meditation: Imagine a giant movie screen 6 ft. in front of you 20 degrees above the horizon and imagine that goal you want to achieve and what it looks like 3 years from now. Feel it, describe it, all the colors, all the feelings all smells, all the excitement. Then say to yourself day by day in every way I am getting better, better, and better. Then take 1 action to bring that goal to life.

YOU LOOKING TO SHIFT THAT MINDSET: 

there are times when we don’t feel like we belong, when others don’t want us around, or when we cannot be ourselves around others. We all know that feeling, not getting picked to play a game or being left out of the party when everyone else is being invited or even when you are invited but you feel extremely uncomfortable to be there as if you know this is not the thing for you. For me, it was thinking I had to be someone else for others to like me or want to be around me, and Trust me that is not the way to belong.

Don't get lost in life trying to be a chameleon in whatever group setting or whomever I was around. Stop agreeing to be agreeable because all your doing is placing all bets on other people making you feel like you fit in. 

Disclosure... the audio is a bit low on my side of the conversation so turn up the volume to get the full effect.

Words are powerful, how we say them, to what we say can lead us down a path of staying stuck or moving forward. And when we can see those words in a new light or a new perspective it can bring everlasting change. 

Shifting our mindset can feel out of reach. That is why I use the phrase "GET TO" to help me along with that. 

Next time you are saying have to, should have, would have, could have.... say 'GET TO" and FEEL the difference it makes. 

You see when we truly make the choice to tackle PTSD, we are allowing ourselves to release years and years of pain. For me, the release is being bold and embracing my truth in sharing with you how I transformed my mindset as well as my emotions to no longer allow PTSD to have a hold over me

Here we go. I want to make sure I give respect and space to and for others who battle with PTSD. I know it is not easy and the daily struggle is real.

so Before we get started, I feel it is necessary to disclose to you that I am not Psychologist, I am not a doctor who specializes in PTSD, I am simply a person who since a young age has struggled with triggers, emotions, violent incidences, Guilt, shame, nightmares, flashbacks, and traumatic situations.

Once we can see that PTSD, triggers, setbacks, emotions are all experiences we are having then, the choices we make to overcome them get easier and easier. 

You can do this too; you can get back up and fight for yourself no matter the experiences you have. Discover yourself outside of the world and inside of you.

IF you are ready to do that, to see how all the experiences you have been through can re-shape you, & transform you. Whether you’re looking for a free consult, signing up for sessions, or want an intuitive reading on your situation, discover what actions you can take, & how to see the outcome of life.

One of the only ways we can hold space for ourselves and others is to check in with ourselves. Are you holding space within your energy or have you taken on the other person’s energy during the conversation? Have you set boundaries, and most importantly when the conversation is over, it’s over LET IT GO! No sense of crying over spilled milk that has already been cleaned up. 

Often times energy is the last thing we think about when it comes to our emotions. 

This episode goes through my daily experience with the emotions of worth, doubt, & stupidity and how I see the energy in them. 

Emotions can run our day heck even our life, it did mine for way too long and it was exhausting. Aren't you exhausted? Let me help you, let me be there for you, Let me at least share with you how I began to live my best life. 

There is no better way to win the fight of thought than to be aware of them. And having someone in your corner that will guide you, question you, and hold you accountable: is how you can become a champion in your own life.  

The voice in our mind is constant, so begin to be the person who hears it not believes it. Find your way to acceptance.
