This is another amazing show
with my good friend, colleague, and mentee Grace Edison. Grace
helps and guides people out of their own way. This conversation
explores how we disqualify ourselves based on our fears, and how
there are lots of subtle limiting beliefs that can hold us back
while convincing us that they’re true and real. In this episode, we talk about how to dig a few
layers deeper. In doing so, we gain new perspectives on how we’re
disqualifying ourselves from stepping onto our dharmic
paths.
Tune in and find out how and
where you’re disqualifying yourself.
I rap with Grace Edison

Fear
- Common ways we disqualify ourselves from big
opportunities
- Determining when a big choice is good for
you
- Investing in yourself with bravery and
courage
- Figuring out your “why”
What you’ll get out of
tuning in
- How
to stop hitting your head against a proverbial brick wall and get
out of your own way
- How
to make decisions based on your future self that aren’t rooted in
fear
- Ways
to transform from a hot mess into an organized, thriving
entrepreneur
- How
to say “yes” to the things that scare you the most, face fears to
do what you desire, and learn about your desires from your
fears

Show
Highlights:
- 4:50
— Grace recounts how she became involved in Yoga Health Coaching
through Body Thrive and discusses her journey along the way as a
Yoga teacher who loves helping people.
- 13:05
— We need to change our patterns to achieve our desires — otherwise
we’re stuck in a loop of discomfort and feeling sick and tired (a
samskara).
- 16:35
— If we’re not growing exponentially, we’re out of the loop and
don’t see how to get clear on our “whys.” We’ve disqualified
ourselves from the growth curve because of limiting beliefs. And
when we have wellness careers and we disqualify ourselves, we’re
also disqualifying all the people we have the potential to
impact.
- 24:40
— We need to learn how to leverage regret and make sure we don’t
repeat our mistakes again in order to break cycles and experience
growth.
- 29:00
— Where do you want to be in a year? Is your next choice getting
you there? We are verbs, not nouns, and we need to make choices
based on our future selves, not who we are presently.
- 32:50
— Readiness isn’t the feeling of certainty, but rather feeling
right about something and simultaneously scared to fail at attempts
to pursue it.
- 38:00
— We need to step into dharma to look at the ways we’re qualified
to do what we most deeply desire. What are our advantages? Who
makes up our support systems? Who believes in us?

BIO
Grace Edison lives in British
Columbia, Canada. She’s a mom of twin 8-year-olds, a Yoga teacher,
a studio owner, and a Yoga Health Coach — and she also works

take their health and wellness into their own hands. She loves
building authentic relationships, making people laugh, and creating
supportive communities. After a longstanding relationship with
severe depression, Grace has found deep relief through the habits
of Ayurveda — and much credit is due to Cate and her
Body Thrive program. After taking Body Thrive several times
and jumping into Yoga Health Coaching, Grace came aboard the Yogahealer team. If
