Today I am sharing an incredible conversation that I had the privilege of having with Sarah Edmondson. Sarah is a talented actress with a radiant smile and natural charm. She has an exceptionally diverse portfolio of interests, and dedicates herself with limitless energy and positivity to the worlds of acting and yoga. In 2005, when NXIVM, a personal and professional development company, promised to provide the tools and insight Sarah needed to reach her potential, she was intrigued. Over her twelve-year tenure, she went from student to coach and eventually operated her own NXIVM center in Vancouver. Questions kept coming up about the organization’s rules and practices, which came to a head in 2017 when she accepted an invitation from her best friend to join DOS, a “secret sisterhood” within NXIVM. In 2019, Sarah published Scarred: The True Story of How I Escaped NXIVM, the Cult that Bound My Life, with Kristine Gasbarre. In this tell-all memoir, she shares her story from the moment she takes her first seminar to her harrowing fight to get out of NXIVM, collaborate with the FBI, help others, and heal. In today's episode we talk all about;  Sarah's experiences being in a cult and the courage she had to leave  Being able to recognize the difference between self help and self harm Sarah's path to healing past trauma and settling into who she really is And so much more!

"I think we need to decondition all the things we've been conditioned to have; the 2.5 kids, white picket fence, and a spouse, in a job that you work until you're 65, that you're supposed to be happy, and then retire and enjoy your retirement for 10 or 15 or 20 years." Join me today as I chat with Dr. Nicolya Williams, a life coach and best selling author.

Ready to see money in a new, loving light? The opposite of playing small is expansion. To expand your relationship with all humanity, the fundamental place to start is your relationship with money. What if we stop thinking of money as intangible numbers in our bank accounts and start to think of money as a person? Imagine if money was your boyfriend called Paul. What kind of relationship do you have with Paul? Is it healthy? Or is it toxic? How would Paul describe his relationship with you? Once you have both perspectives, you can think about what your dream relationship looks like. Humanize your relationship with money.    This episode I discuss:     You expand your relationship to yourself and humanity by starting with your relationship with money. Money is a construct that we made up, and is a great stressor in our life due to past stories we’ve been told.  A vital exercise I do with all my clients to help them humanize their relationship to money. Bring the unconscious to the conscious to change the storyline for yourself. How to have a healthy, supportive, co-creative relationship to money.   Let’s stay connected:    My website: https://leissewilcox.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leisse-wilcox-197a31112/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leissewilcox/ 

Money is a big stressor in our lives. And it's something that's dominating women's mental health and causing heaps of anxiety. If it's not the gender pay gap, it's that people are graduating from uni with $70k debt but struggle to land an entry level job. The patriarchy constantly tells us that there is not enough money, so we stop being in pursuit of making more. But really, money is finite, and I believe you can always create more of it. And that's what I talk about in this episode of my podcast.    I discuss:     How money is one of our greatest stressors. Money is used as a metric to gauge someone’s success.  When we have a secure sense of self we tend to make more money. That money is finite and that you can always create more of it.  How the patriarchy controls the financial narrative.    Let’s stay connected:    My website: https://leissewilcox.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leisse-wilcox-197a31112/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leissewilcox/ 

Is the thought of money keeping you up at night? Perhaps you're fully content. Maybe it's not something you think about because you know it'll negatively impact your mood and decision making. A healthy relationship with money is the ONLY way forward. How you think, feel and talk about money says a lot about your mindset and is something that can seriously impact your life. There are three common relationships: avoidant, obsessed and healthy. In this episode, I'll talk in detail about how the three key relationships affect you and how you can change your outlook towards money by changing how you talk and think. Our unconscious mind believes whatever story we tell ourselves. But, we have the power to change the lens we look through.   This episode I discuss:     How attachment theory can relate to money in different ways.  How most people have a scarcity mindset when thinking about money. What the consequences are if you don’t grow up in a household where money is spoken about in a healthy way.  Questions you can ask yourself to reflect on your relationship with money.  That you can change the narrative you have created around money by changing the lens that you look through.    Let’s stay connected:    My website: https://leissewilcox.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leisse-wilcox-197a31112/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leissewilcox/ 

How would earning 6 figures make you feel? Statistics show that only 25% of women who make this amount feel safe, secure and confident. Now I'm on a mission to boost this number. I'm one of the 9% who makes six figures, and I got to where I am while being a single parent and going through chemotherapy and an expensive divorce. For as long as I remember, I've been helping my clients increase their revenue. Even when women came to me to improve their relationship with themselves, they also increased their self-worth and net worth. And that's why I'm here — to help you close the gap between the two.    This episode I discuss:    What first got me interested in teaching women about money.  What my own journey was like as a six figure business owner.  How everyone I work with increases their revenue, even if they don’t come to me for business coaching.  The importance of healing our past.    Let’s stay connected:    My website: https://leissewilcox.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leisse-wilcox-197a31112/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leissewilcox/

"Too often we are conditioned to feel the need to be in constant competition. There's a misguided perception that being who we are, AS we are, in business, life and love won't be enough until we prove we are better than someone else and maybe not even then."   The myth around competition is a topic I have spoken on before and one that I feel is extremely important, I wrote a chapter all about it in my book, To Call Myself Beloved. So for today's episode I decided to read this actual chapter to you, not just because I am so excited for my book baby to be born, but because I am so passionate about this topic.   I get pretty fired up in this one everyone.  I touch on some really key points, such as: The root of where our intense need to compete with others actually comes from Why the phrase "collaboration over competition" being used on social media makes me nauseous and feel a whole lot of swear words. How competition all stems back to doing the work on loving YOURSELF, accepting yourself, and not seeking outward approval when you are winning. And so much more!  I hope you all enjoy today's episode and if you haven't ordered your copy of my book yet, WHY NOT?
