Are you going to be a victim of your story?

How we react to something in the moment has the power to shape how we see the world for the rest of our lives. The fears and even the joys that we pin to those moments become filters for the reality that we see now and into the future. If you master this, you take full responsibility and command over your own life. Pain from past events, that really only exist in the mind, can simply fade away when we realize that we can choose how we react. If we take this a step further, since your body reflects your heart and mind, when you release the past, you heal, inside and out.

Let Maria's resilience and the invaluable lessons she offers become encouragement to everyone to explore your own potential for growth and healing, reminding you that you have the power to rewrite your stories and embrace a life of freedom and joy.

Paraliminals are a unique tool designed by Dr. Paul Scheele to tap into the innate resources within individuals, what he calls, ‘the true self’.

As a young person, Dr. Scheele faced anxiety. He found comfort in prayer and then explored meditation and hypnosis. Surprisingly, he ended up running the oldest hypnosis practice in Minneapolis at just 20 years old. Later, he pursued degrees in training and development, eventually earning a Ph.D. in leadership and change.

Dr. Scheele shares how the idea for paraliminals came to him in a message during meditation. He wanted to create something that helps people connect with their inner strengths.Paraliminals, with their unique design and features, help connect with the part of the mind that brings about positive change.

“Start with the steps you don't want to take. -David White”

“People often get caught up in jumping to something without really knowing why it matters to them or what's important to them.”

Kirsty Maynor is a change expert and the author of the recently released book, "Untangled: A Practical and Inspirational Guide to Change You Choose and Change You Don't". She’s an expert in helping individuals navigate and master both chosen and thrust-upon changes in life. Despite working in change management for 25 years, Kirsty faced a challenge in 2008 when she unexpectedly lost her job. This experience led her to reassess her approach to change and discover the true essence of making lasting life changes.

Kirsty’s message is about reflecting on her own missteps and facing the reality of her situation, she advises the importance of adapting to life changes without being overly prescriptive. It’s also important to have the need for intention, courage, and continuous steps forward, regardless of the prescribed sequence.

Experimenting and adapting an entrepreneurial mindset when navigating change means you’re trying different approaches, learning from failures, and being adaptable. Drawing parallels between personal change and entrepreneurial endeavors. Untangling the inherent messiness of life involves recognizing and embracing imperfections. The goal is not to achieve perfect order but to pull threads apart, allowing you to weave your chosen aspects into a meaningful future.

It’s significant to have clarity in navigating change, stating that, having a clear understanding of your core values and intentions is crucial. You have to recognize the messiness, experiment, and fail fast to be resilient and adaptable.
