"I Can't Keep Living Like This... But What's Possible?"

You've said it. Maybe out loud, maybe only to yourself at 3am. "I can't keep living like this."  What if that sentence isn't a sign that something has gone wrong, but the first time you've recognized your body's cry for help? In this episode, Manon de Veritch and Dr. Pat Baccili explore what's actually happening beneath the numbness, the impatience, and the quiet loss of desire that so many women in midlife are experiencing but don't have language for. This isn't burnout, it's a transmission. And if you're willing to listen to it, it can lead you to a life of purpose and potential. Manon introduces The Breaking, The Becoming, and The Rising — the three stages every woman moves through on her way back to herself — and the Sovereign Woman spectrum: Maiden, Mother, Sovereign Woman, Crone. Most women in midlife are being called toward the third threshold without knowing it exists. This conversation gives it a name. Surrender is also on the table — not as defeat, but as the most courageous act available to a woman who has held everything together through sheer will. And the conversation closes with the bigger frame: your body is an electromagnetic vessel, your life force is measurable and real, and the woman you are becoming on the other side of this is more possible than anything you've let yourself imagine. If you are ready to stop surviving and start thriving, this episode is for you.

Habits Die Hard

Drawing from one of John’s 20 books, this episode will explore 10 steps to building successful habits. We are all creatures of habit, and if you make good habits, good habits will make you. This wisdom has been around since ancient times. Aristotle once said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.” The subconscious mind – the “habitual” mind – is over one-million times more powerful than the conscious mind. This means that we spend a substantial amount of our lifetime on “autopilot,” playing out the latent mental programs that govern our behavior. The subconscious mind is so vast and powerful that we do not even know what it is thinking or capable of. It truly runs our lives – whether we know it or not.  As creatures of habit, many people struggle with breaking habits. In this episode of The Change Mastery Show, John will help you through this very common, very challenging life experience by giving you ten steps to replace destructive habits with successful ones. If you have habits you intend to change, please join us and share this episode with others.   You will discover: * How to exchange bad habits for good habits. What are some practical and useful steps for making this transition? * The Ten Steps: Where do I begin and how do I finish? * Maintain the Gain: How do I avoid falling back into old habits?

Is it Possible to Recover after the Loss of a Child?

In this tenth episode in our series on Winning Every Living Day™, we are now deep in the Fire Horse Energy of Intense Challenges and potential Transformations.  In this time of awareness, when we can let go of everything that no longer serves us and step into and transform into our new self, ready to embrace our authentic and newer way of being, I was reminded that sometimes life challenges us to reframe our circumstances!  As parents, there is nothing that we care about more than the safety and well-being of our children!   However, that is not always guaranteed, and sometimes unexpected circumstances occur that completely throw us off guard.  How do we respond and how can we help ourselves and other parents who experience similar events.

Blind Leaders; Their Self-Defeating Habits

Blind leaders can create cultures that drive out top performers through bad attitudes and practices, and self-defeating defense mechanisms. They too often compromise trust which is the core factor in engaging people and enabling their talents to flourish and synergize. Blind leaders too often lack the core principles of integrity, accountability and servant leadership we discussed during our last episode.
