The conversation also turns toward the future, with thoughtful reflections and intentions for 2026—what to protect, what to release, and what feels most important moving forward. This episode isn't about giving advice from a pedestal; it's about sharing lived wisdom, curiosity, and hope through real conversation. Whether you're looking ahead to a new year, reassessing your goals, or simply craving perspective that cuts through the noise, this episode offers a grounding reminder of what creates a meaningful life—no matter your age. In This Episode, We Discuss: What happiness really means at different stages of life How priorities and goals evolve over time Reflections on love, relationships, and fulfillment Intentions and hopes for 2026 What still matters most, no matter the generation

In This Episode, You'll Learn Why contrast (the thing you don't want) is not personal—and not a sign you "did it wrong" How survival responses (fight/flight/freeze/fawn) can pull you out of flow automatically Why self-compassion is the "neutralizer" that helps you move from emotional intensity back to steadiness The "three buckets" model: lack → neutrality → abundance How to move from "what I don't want" into true clarity using three powerful questions The difference between observing vs. judging—and how judgment instantly shuts off flow How momentum builds around whatever you focus on (and how to choose differently moment-to-moment) Why you may need to practice the feelings you want (and build new neural pathways) What "command" means through I AM statements How "create" activates imagination and future-self alignment to become a stronger energetic match   Ready to practice the 5 C's (and build real momentum toward what you want)? Join JJ's FREE 14-Day Manifestation Challenge starting January 5th. You'll get daily guidance, simple assignments, and practical tools to help you move from contrast into clarity—then command and create from a more aligned, empowered state.

And the ripple effects? They've touched every area of their lives — relationships, confidence, movement, self-worth, energy, and even identity.

This episode is proof: When you stop fighting your body and start listening to it, your whole life changes. If you've ever felt stuck, frustrated with your body, or tired of doing "all the right things" without results, this conversation will show you what's truly possible when the nervous system feels safe and supported. ✨ Want to experience this transformation for yourself?

In this episode, JJ Flizanes shares a powerful conversation from the Unleashing Your Manifestation Power live event — featuring members of her community who have experienced real transformation through support, accountability, and connection. This success panel explores one of the most overlooked truths about personal growth and manifestation: you can't do it alone. We dive into: 💫 Why having the right people in your life — mentors, peers, coaches, and friends — determines how far you'll go. 🌱 How accountability isn't about pressure or perfection, but about being witnessed in your evolution. 👁️ The importance of being around people who can see the version of you that you're becoming, even before you can. 🤍 The difference between being supported and being enabled — and how true support challenges you to embody your vision. 🔥 What it means to "lead and be led" in community, so you're not just learning — you're living it. Whether you're on a healing journey, building your next-level vision, or ready to expand into a more empowered version of yourself — this episode will remind you that growth happens in relationship. ✨ Ask yourself: Who's leading me right now? Who has my back when I forget what's possible? Who's holding the vision for me when I can't see it yet?   If you're ready to find your people — those who will help you embody your vision and hold you accountable to your highest potential — apply for JJ's 2026 Empowerment Programs now at http://jjflizanes.com/apply  

If you've ever said, "I know what to do… I just can't seem to do it," this episode is for you. Today, JJ Flizanes uncovers the hidden reason most people stay stuck, no matter how much effort, discipline, or positive thinking they apply: an unsafe nervous system. Your body doesn't change when it's under threat — it changes when it feels safe. And the first step to transformation is understanding whether your nervous system feels regulated enough to allow change in the first place. In this episode, you'll learn:💫 Why your nervous system—not your willpower—determines your results💫 The physiological link between emotional safety, metabolism, and body composition💫 10 powerful questions to assess whether your body feels safe or stuck in survival mode💫 What true "body safety" feels like—and how to begin creating it💫 Why the body protects you (and how to make it trust you again) This conversation sets the stage for JJ's brand-new masterclass:🎟️ Why Your Body Won't Change Until Your Nervous System Feels Safe Normally $97 — but you can join for FREE with code JJ97.👉 http://jjflizanes.com/bodychange

In our newest episode of the podcast, I invited my former client Sheridon Taylor to share his courageous and deeply personal journey of transformation. After years of traditional therapy, Sheridon believed he had forgiven his father… until we did the work together that changed everything. "I realized all that talk never changed how I felt. But when JJ helped me uncover the deeper story and feel the love I'd shut out… it brought me to my knees." — Sheridon Taylor This episode is a testament to the power of shadow work, emotional honesty, and choosing to go deeper than surface-level healing. If you've ever wondered whether therapy alone is enough—or if there's more available to you—this conversation is one you don't want to miss. Sheridon's story is raw, real, and inspiring. It reminds us that true healing happens when we stop just talking about it… and start feeling through it. With love, JJ
