In this episode, Mariette Frey interviews Kara Taylor, a transformational life coach, about transitioning from being a therapist to helping people achieve their dreams. They discuss the Dream Building Framework, which involves envisioning the future, making decisions, and befriending fear. They emphasize the importance of enjoying the journey and taking credit for the steps taken along the way. They also discuss the arrival fallacy and the importance of finding happiness in the present moment. The conversation concludes with a discussion on manifesting dreams through specificity. In this conversation, Mariette and Kara discuss the importance of shifting from a lack mindset to an abundance mindset. They explore examples of lack mindset and how it can limit our potential. They also emphasize the need to focus on the what, not the how, when pursuing our dreams. The power of affirmations and language is highlighted, along with the importance of surrendering to the universe’s plan. The phrase ‘up until now’ is introduced as a way to shift perspective and embrace growth. The conversation concludes with a discussion on gratitude, visualization, and taking daily action towards our dreams. Two key phrases to remember from the show…when talking about habits that are holding you back (that you want to change), use “up until now” and after thinking through your vision daily, end with “this or something even better.”
