Spiritually Wired with Renée Walker

How to Trust Your Intuition, Expand Consciousness & Manifest with Cortney McDermott

How much of your life is consciously chosen and how much is simply conditioning on repeat? In this episode of Spiritually Wired, Renée welcomes Cortney McDermott, an award-winning author, TEDx speaker, and coach in the space of human potential and self-realization. Today, Cortney shares how she  disrupted old patterns, let go of traditional symbols of success, and transformed her life from the inside out. This conversation is packed with academic and spiritual truths to help you awaken to the limitless conscious energy underneath your outdated programming.  Settle in for a transformative talk on: * Why lasting growth requires letting go of previous versions of ourselves so that new potentials can emerge * The hidden trap of external success and how “good” circumstances can sometimes hinder our expansion  * Human consciousness as our most advanced technology * The connection between spirituality, universal intelligence, and learning to trust the guidance already within us * Intentional practices we can use to “demuck” our minds and awaken our conscious potential  * The freedom that comes from breaking out of unconscious scripts and consciously choosing who we become  Remember that you are not here to remain fixed in old identities or limiting stories, you are spiritually wired to evolve, awaken, and reconnect with the innate intelligence guiding your life. If you found truth in this conversation, please pass it along to someone in your life.  Connect with Cortney: Website [https://www.cortneymcdermott.com/] Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/cortneymcdermott/] Get your copy of Give Yourself Permission [https://www.amazon.ca/Give-Yourself-Permission-Development-Improvement/dp/B0C9SNG7NZ] Get your copy of Change Starts Within You [https://www.amazon.ca/Change-Starts-Within-You-Confidence/dp/0998955205] Connect With Renée: Spiritually Wired Membership: https://reneewalkerwellness.com/membership [https://reneewalkerwellness.com/membership/] Website: http://www.reneewalkerwellness.com [http://www.reneewalkerwellness.com] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reneewalkerwellness [https://www.instagram.com/reneewalkerwellness/] Linktree/ Other Resources : Renee Walker Wellness Linktree [https://tr.ee/p7MvdNcMHU] Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reneewalkerwellness [https://www.facebook.com/reneewalkerwellness] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/renée-walker-7976b513 [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ren%C3%A9e-walker-7976b513/] Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Spiritually-Wired [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6p43CM9RInz_SJqHo5rLXg]
