The B Code with Kelly Merryman Turner

The B Code with Kelly Merryman Turner

Welcome to The B Code! Over the past several episodes, we’ve explored what it means to live as a Bold, Independent, Tenacious, Confident, and Honest woman. But today, we’re taking that conversation even deeper as we explore healing, intuition, nervous system regulation, and the powerful connection between energy, emotions, and self-trust. In this very special episode, I’m joined by my first guest ever on The B Code podcast, Kelly Merryman Turner—founder of Soul Ascend Frequency Healing, Reiki healer, yoga teacher, sound healer, and someone who became deeply instrumental in my own healing journey. Together, we have an honest and heartfelt conversation about anxiety, burnout, intuition, meditation, emotional regulation, and what it truly means to come back home to yourself. Kelly shares her own transformation from living in chronic stress and misalignment to stepping fully into a life rooted in healing and purpose. I also open up about my own experiences with anxiety, panic attacks, losing self-trust, and how reconnecting with myself changed everything. This episode is a reminder that healing isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about remembering who you already are. In this episode, you will learn: * How the Body Speaks When You’re Out of Alignment: Why anxiety, burnout, emotional overwhelm, and physical symptoms can be signals that you’ve disconnected from your true self—and how learning to listen changes everything. * The Connection Between Healing and The B Code: How Boldness, Independence, Tenacity, Confidence, and Honesty show up throughout the healing journey and help you reconnect to your intuition, self-trust, and inner peace. * What Intuition Actually Feels Like: How to begin recognizing the difference between fear-based thinking and intuitive knowing—and why intuition often feels like calm clarity rather than anxiety. * The Power of Meditation, Energy Work, and Gratitude: How practices like meditation, Reiki, sound healing, journaling, and gratitude can help regulate your nervous system, shift your energy, and create deeper alignment in your life. * Why Healing Is a Practice, Not a Destination: How growth happens through consistency, curiosity, and learning to become kinder to yourself instead of waiting to feel “fixed” before you begin living fully. This episode is brought to you by my upcoming book, How to Become a B.I.T.C.H. and Live Happily Ever After. This book is my heart and my story, and while it comes out later this year, you don't have to wait to start your transformation. I created the FREE "B Code Starter Guide" just for you—five pillars, five practices, and one powerful shift so you can start living your B Code today.

Gratitude

Welcome to The B Code! Now that we’ve explored the five pillars—Bold, Independent, Tenacious, Confident, and Honest—we’re stepping into something that has the power to transform every area of your life from the inside out: gratitude. Because The B Code isn’t just about becoming a stronger woman—it’s about shifting the way you see yourself, your life, and what’s possible for you. In this episode, we’re diving into the deeper meaning of gratitude and why it’s so much more than simply saying “thank you.” I share my personal journey of how gratitude went from feeling like a daily checklist to becoming a life-changing practice that shifted my mindset, my energy, and the experiences I began attracting into my life. What started as writing down a few things each day eventually became a powerful realization: the more I focused on what was working, the more blessings, peace, alignment, and opportunities I began to see. This isn’t just about positive thinking—it’s about rewiring your focus so you can move from scarcity to abundance and begin creating a life that feels aligned from the inside out. In this episode, you will learn: * Why Gratitude Is More Than a Practice: How gratitude shifts your focus from what’s missing to what’s already here—and why that changes the way you experience your entire life. * How Gratitude Expands the Five Pillars of The B Code: How Boldness, Independence, Tenacity, Confidence, and Honesty become stronger when rooted in appreciation, self-awareness, and trust. * The Power of Focus and Perspective: Why your mind naturally scans for what you consistently focus on—and how gratitude helps retrain your brain to notice opportunities, blessings, growth, and possibility. * Flip the Switch — Gratitude Edition: How to Catch, Challenge, and Change scarcity-based thinking in real time so you can shift into empowerment, resilience, and abundance. This episode is brought to you by my upcoming book, How to Become a B.I.T.C.H. and Live Happily Ever After. This book is my heart and my story, and while it comes out later this year, you don't have to wait to start your transformation.

Complaining

Welcome to The B Code! Now that we’ve explored the five pillars—Bold, Independent, Tenacious, Confident, and Honest—we’re stepping into one of the most subtle yet powerful patterns that impacts how you live them every single day. Because The B Code isn’t just about who you are at your best—it’s about how you show up in the small, unconscious moments that either give your power away or bring you back home to yourself. In this episode, we’re diving into a habit that quietly drains your energy, clouds your perception, and keeps you stuck without you even realizing it: complaining. I share a powerful real-life moment from a meditation class where one simple question shifted everything—turning someone’s focus from everything that was going wrong to everything that was still good. That moment became a B Code awakening, revealing how quickly your energy, mindset, and entire experience of life can change when you choose to see the full truth. This isn’t about denying what’s hard—it’s about recognizing when complaining becomes your default and learning how to consciously choose a more empowering perspective. In this episode, you will learn: * Why Complaining Becomes a Default: How it often shows up when you feel overwhelmed, unseen, or disconnected—and why your brain starts scanning for more of what’s wrong. * The Hidden Cost of Complaining: How staying in complaint mode impacts your nervous system, limits your clarity, and blocks you from seeing what’s still good, growing, and possible. * The B Code Approach to Reclaiming Your Power: How Boldness, Independence, Tenacity, Confidence, and Honesty help you acknowledge what’s hard without letting it define you. * Flip the Switch — Complaining Edition: How to Catch, Challenge, and Choose your thoughts so you can shift your focus, regulate your energy, and step back into alignment in real time. This episode is brought to you by my upcoming book, How to Become a B.I.T.C.H. and Live Happily Ever After. This book is my heart and my story, and while it comes out later this year, you don't have to wait to start your transformation.

Forrest Gump

Welcome to The B Code! Now that we’ve explored the five pillars—Bold, Independent, Tenacious, Confident, and Honest—we’re stepping into what it actually looks like to live them. Because The B Code isn’t just something you learn—it’s something you embody in real-life moments that test your voice, your values, and your self-trust. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of one of the most pivotal moments in my life—booking the role of Carla in Forrest Gump. What looked like a dream opportunity quickly became a defining moment of alignment when I was faced with a situation that challenged my boundaries. I share how I used creative visualization to land the role, how I spoke up to honor myself on set, and how I navigated pressure, fear, and unexpected challenges without abandoning who I was. This isn’t just a story about Hollywood—it’s a story about choosing yourself, even when the stakes feel high. In this episode, you will learn: * How to Hold Your Boundaries in High-Stakes Moments: Why honoring yourself doesn’t have to be loud or confrontational—and how offering solutions can create alignment without sacrificing your values. * What It Means to Embody The B Code in Real Life: How Boldness, Independence, Tenacity, Confidence, and Honesty show up in real decisions, challenges, and unexpected moments. * Flip the Switch in Action: How to Catch, Challenge, and Change fear-based thoughts in real time so you can move forward with clarity, self-trust, and alignment. This episode is brought to you by my upcoming book, How to Become a B.I.T.C.H. and Live Happily Ever After.

Imposter Syndrome

Welcome to The B Code! Over the past few episodes, we’ve explored the five pillars of The B Code—what it means to be Bold, Independent, Tenacious, Confident, and Honest. But understanding these pillars is only the beginning. The real transformation happens when you start applying them in the moments that challenge you the most. In this episode, we’re diving into something almost every ambitious woman experiences: imposter syndrome—that inner voice that shows up just as you begin stepping into something bigger and asks, “Who do you think you are?” I share personal stories from my journey as an actress and later as a life coach, and how imposter syndrome followed me even when I had the education, training, and experience to back me up. What I learned is that doubt isn’t a signal to stop—it’s often a sign that you’re expanding. As we move forward in the podcast, we’ll begin exploring how the five pillars of The B Code work together in real-life situations like this, helping you move through fear, trust your voice, and fully step into the woman you’re becoming. In this episode, you will learn: * Why Imposter Syndrome Shows Up: How self-doubt often appears when you’re stepping into new opportunities, new levels of growth, or unfamiliar territory. * How Confidence Is Built Through Action: Why the key to overcoming imposter syndrome isn’t waiting until you feel ready—but continuing to show up and trust yourself anyway. * The B Code Approach to Self-Doubt: How embodying Boldness, Independence, Tenacity, Confidence, and Honesty helps you move through fear and step fully into your purpose. This episode is brought to you by my upcoming book, How to Become a B.I.T.C.H. and Live Happily Ever After. This book is my heart and my story, and while it comes out later this year, you don't have to wait to start your transformation.  I also created the FREE "B Code Starter Guide" just for you—five pillars, five practices, and one powerful shift so you can start living your B Code today.
