You Are the Magic

The Magic of Rehabbing Your Own Brain

Anna Hernandez had a golf ball sized brain tumor she never saw coming, hidden for years behind migraines and sinus infections she kept finding reasons to brush off. The day it caught up with her, she was crawling on her office floor in the dark before a seizure sent her to the ER, and what followed was a recovery of her own making using what she knew as a speech-language pathologist and a years-long obsession with neuroplasticity. This conversation goes deep into how she taught her own brain to heal, why being weird is the whole point, and how she stopped asking "why me" long enough to build a life she's proud of. KEY TOPICS * The sudden diagnosis and the symptoms Anna explained away for months before her seizure * Rehabbing her own brain after surgery with no prescribed therapy, using lists, structure, and self-directed neuroplasticity * Telling your brain what to think, and how repetition rewires your thought patterns over time * Flower walks, morning sunlight, anchored sleep, and the brain health practices that carried her recovery * Being the weird kid in two countries and how that became her magic * Self-advocacy in the workplace when your brain has a daily energy budget * The friends who showed up for the dramatic part and the ones who stayed for the long recovery * Winning SLP of the Year at the NSA conference and the stranger who told her she was running from something * Habit stacking gratitude and how five seconds can be a fork in the road TIMESTAMPS * 00:45 Anna's background and the teaser of everything she's overcome * 06:35 The morning at school when she couldn't remember the kids' names or her password * 07:43 The diagnosis, the ICU week, and the surgery * 09:01 Going back to work one month later * 12:17 Rehabbing herself with no prescribed therapy * 18:23 Recognizing she rehabbed her own brain * 19:08 Breath work, flower walks, sleep, and what felt good to her brain * 22:14 "This is hard, but I'm doing it" * 24:11 Growing up between a village in Mexico and a small town in Texas * 26:02 Being weird is the magic * 29:14 The people who left and the people who stayed * 36:14 If we're not growing, we're shrinking * 38:02 "Do you ever wonder why me?" * 41:02 Winning SLP of the Year * 46:15 Working less, raising her prices, and building self-respect * 51:45 Why the fulfillment is in the work, not the reward RESOURCES & LINKS * The Brain That Changes Itself: https://amzn.to/4fYi3UY [https://amzn.to/4fYi3UY] * Rao, R.

Audacious Magic: Somatic Clearing, Burnout Recovery, and Owning Your Worth

Audacious Magic: Somatic Clearing, Burnout Recovery, and Owning Your Worth Lynda Stretton had a boss she genuinely loved, and one day he sat her down to help her out. She was a big person, he told her, with a big personality, a big energy, and a big smile, and she walked into rooms and intimidated people. Could she find a way to make herself a little smaller? Lynda had been hearing versions of that her whole life. She got told she was too tall, too direct, too fast, too much, and for a long time she believed it. In this episode she tells me how those exact qualities turned out to be the foundation of the work she does now, helping high achieving women own their worth and stop shrinking to keep everyone else comfortable. Lynda spent 17 years in corporate marketing, running a £45 million budget as a marketing director for three different brands, before she walked away from a six figure salary to be fully present with her kids. That choice became the start of her own healing and the method she teaches now, somatic clearing, with a goal of touching and transforming one billion lives. We get into trusting your intuition and following the energy, why lived wisdom will outlast knowledge in a world full of AI, the honest conversation around money and worth, and the way so many women lose themselves in their relationships and then carry that same smallness into their businesses. I loved this one, and I think you will too. KEY TOPICS * Walking away from a six figure corporate marketing career to be a present mum * Somatic clearing and healing what the body holds onto * Burnout recovery and rebuilding a business with strong boundaries * Owning your worth and charging premium prices * Trusting your intuition, following the energy, and acting on an idea without overthinking it * Why wisdom and lived experience outlast knowledge in a world full of AI * The qualities women get told are "too much" becoming their real superpowers * Losing yourself in a relationship and how it shows up in your business * Female success, being the breadwinner, and navigating partners who feel triggered TIMESTAMPS * 01:16 What Lynda's work looks like now and who she helps * 04:00 The origin of the Audacious One Mastermind * 05:30 Transforming one billion lives with somatic clearing * 06:48 Humble beginnings and a first job at £1.76 an hour * 14:10 What Lynda is most proud of and the choice to become a present mum * 20:38 Why people will pay for wisdom over knowledge * 23:35 Trusting intuition and the Money May download * 35:14 Being told she was too direct, too tall, too much * 41:39 Women losing themselves in relationships and in business * 50:26 Lynda's takeaway and the free breath work journey RESOURCES AND LINKS Find Lynda on IG: instagram.com/lynda.stretton/ [http://instagram.com/lynda.stretton/] Lynda's free breathwork: https://youtu.be/AVitwaN3gHA [https://youtu.be/AVitwaN3gHA] Find Sarah on IG: instagram.com/bcsarahsaidso [http://instagram.com/bcsarahsaidso] Pod Site: YouAretheMagicPodcast.com [http://YouAretheMagicPodcast.com] Come join us for the You Are the Magic retreat at social-moguls.com/retreat [http://social-moguls.com/retreat]

Money, Magic, and a Bag of Skittles

Money, Magic, and a Bag of Skittles "You're not a CFO, you're not a money manager, you're a financial dominatrix." Lou's first reaction was to ask if that was a good thing. According to her client, it was. She whips six and seven-figure entrepreneurs into shape around their money, reading their patterns in minutes and telling them the truth about what's actually happening with their cash. In this episode, I sit down with my good friend and my own money mentor to talk about what it means to be a money medium, why money doesn't play favorites, and how Lou stopped shrinking the loud, vibrant, bag-of-Skittles version of herself to fit into a box other people built for her. It's a conversation about money, energetics, and the magic that shows up when you stop performing for an algorithm and start showing up as the real you. KEY TOPICS * What a money medium actually does, and why Lou separates patterns from "blocks" * The story behind the financial dominatrix title, and what overriding the whole system looks like * How energy, strategy, and spiritual connection all show up in Lou's money work * Why entrepreneurs can hit $100,000 months and still have nothing in the bank * The keynote where Lou found out there was no PowerPoint, and why it became the best thing that ever happened to her * How the world unintentionally tries to put your magic in a box, and how to ask people to open it * Sarah's Shavasana download that became this whole show * Chasing algorithms versus showing up natural and unpolished * The one trait Lou hid for 30 years that turned out to be her superpower TIMESTAMPS 00:58 Welcome and introducing Lou Clarke 02:27 Money medium and financial dominatrix, what the work looks like 04:57 Energy, money patterns, and naming the pattern to shift it 05:56 How a client named her the financial dominatrix 08:39 Sarah on inheriting money stories from her parents 10:08 Being the magician, not the magic 11:05 The bag of Skittles 14:46 When God gives you different words than your slides 16:05 The conference keynote with no PowerPoint 18:10 The "You Are the Magic" download in savasana 20:48 Looking for the magic in the small moments 23:18 Why chasing the algorithm extinguishes your magic 24:33 Showing up natural and unpolished, the 40-minute IG live in pajamas 26:49 The trait Lou hid for 30 years 29:58 Money church and bottling up your energy 31:11 Where to find Lou RESOURCES AND LINKS * Connect with Lou on Instagram: @theLouClarke [instagram.com/theLouClarke] * Follow Sarah on Instagram: @bcsarahsaidso [instagram.com/bcsarahsaidso] * Listen to more episodes: youarethemagicpodcast.com [http://youarethemagicpodcast.com] RETREAT Ready for more magic in person?
