Is this what’s stopping you from new opportunities? 💭

much more. Basically, wherever you are on your journey, I want to help you feel inspired and empowered to rise up and conquer your next bold move. I know that's going to look different for everyone, but just no, I'm right here by your side and that you have the rn C community behind you. Let's do this. Hello and welcome back to the Rise and Conquer Podcast. It is your host Georgie Stevenson and I have a very interesting solo app for you guys. So this really kind of started.

I was going through my journal and the current journal I have, well, actually it's an old journal. So I started a new journal probably midyear because I definitely go through them because I like to write every single day lots of stuff, lots of thoughts. And I found my previous journal from probably like end to the start of this year and the end of last year, sorry, to the start of this year, and I came across and I love going back to my journal entries. It's like

really interesting. I highly suggest if you guys journal to like keep all your journals, because yeah, sometimes I'll go back and be like wow, you know, like mentally I was in such a different place, or you know, I wanted this and I attracted this and manifested this and all that sort of thing. But I was going back to previous entries and this was okay, let me kind of establish the scene. So this was probably i've got a feeling maybe December or January. I didn't date the page,

but I know it's around then. And this was after a very long year of trying to conceive, finding out I had an autommune condition, getting out my implants, you know, getting told I was infertile, finding out I was pregnant, getting out my implants, having a miscarriage, like lots lots happening this year, and so the big kind of journey for me in twenty twenty was really my trying to conceive journey and also a lot of you know, physical

health issues. So I found out I had an autoimmune condition, and then I had a miscarriage, and the doctors think I miscarried because my hormones were not fit to hold a pregnancy, and then they think my hormones were like that because of my implants and a lot of kind of like physically, you know, physical stuff being wrong and really getting back to getting my health on check, which I really feel like I did, and even though it was a super hard time, glad I went through it

all and whatnot. Something interesting though, is un til up to the point where I felt physically good and I had healed from my surgery and my thyroid was leveled, and like the doctor kind of gave me the okay where they're like, physically everything is really good. Fertility is really good, Like you and Tim should be able to fall pregnant naturally, and the news flash was we didn't.

So even though you know, we had only tried for four or five months naturally before doing our UI cycle, which is a whole other episode in itself, I remember thinking, Okay, the doctor said, you know, fertility wise, I look really good. I'm feeling really good, healthy wise, and it's like a light bulb went off and I was like, I think I need to look at my sub like, you know,

subconscious level of why I'm not getting pregnant. What you know subconsciously, you know, different things that may be stopping me because I kind of hadn't got to that point yet because of all the physical issues. I hope this is making sent guys. So for the first time I started looking into my limiting beliefs around getting pregnant and

becoming a mum. So if you guys don't know what limiting beliefs are, this is a whole practice and thing I teach in the Rise and Concer Project, which is my six week self development and manifesting course, which obviously goes so much deeper. It teaches you the whole formula, Like you get into this but kind of like to brisk to brisk over the concept. A limiting belief is a belief that we have around us or a situation that we feel it's a truth, but it's not actually

a truth. So a great, you know, example of this is someone with a not so grow great money mindset, and this was, you know, my money mindset. Previously, I had the limiting belief that yes, you can come across money,

but you have to work really hard. But when you look at that belief as one, that belief is not actually true because you know, what about people who make money really easy and they just you know, those people like they just attract money, or people who win the lotto, or you know, there's so many instances where you don't actually have to work really hard for money. And I truly believe that I have now changed my money mindset where I have a belief that money comes to me easy.

It's so like it's easy to attract I don't have to Well, I do work, you guys know, I do work very hard, but I just have a whole other belief around it. So the whole thing is that belief you think is truth. Another kind of good example, a money example is like, you know, money is the root of all evil, which is just not true because there's so many instances where people do great things with money.

I know, personally, since I have been more abundant, I have given more to charities, I've given more to friends and family, been more generous, and just almost a better person because I do have abundance and I'm not having to worry about lack. And so all these beliefs that we had, they come usually from a story the way we're brought up a family member, you know, evidence from what has happened in our life, and we take them

as truth. So, guys, I was like, I really need to look into my limiting beliefs around getting pregnant and around being a mum, because I honestly think there's something subconsciously like blocking me here. And I was like quite surprised that I hadn't done this before. Maybe I had, I just couldn't remember. And this is, yeah, the journal entry. So in this journal entry, I started listing limiting beliefs around pregnancy and becoming a mother. So I'm just reading

for my journal. These are some things that I jotted down. So I jotted down when you become a mum, you give up your career. So this is a story. I don't know if like I fully believe it, but it's definitely, you know, a story you see in the media in movies and also personally, my mum, who is so smart, intelligent, like she's good at anything she does. She got ducks of the college, she you know, was killing it life basically and got pregnant really young. I think she was.

I think she was like twenty one with my brother Josh. So I have three older brothers, family of four, and so obviously she quit her job, raised my brother, and then went on to have three more kids. So she really kind of gave up well like in her own words, the career for the family. And then after that she supported my dad in his business and you know, his career,

if that makes sense. So that came up. I also put you know, once you become a mom, you are less successful just of the sheer concept of you have less time. So if you're competing against someone who doesn't have a child, you're probably going to do less of them. Again, guys, remember these are not truce. I really hope I'm not

like triggering anyone. These are just things that have come up in my mind about you know, limiting beliefs, not having enough time for me or tim a big thing in my family personally, Like all my brothers have two or three kids. They got married and had kids quite young, and the general consensus I get from them is, yeah, you have no time for yourself. Life changes kind of it sucks, which don't get me wrong, they love their children and everything, but yeah, that's kind of the thing

that I get at family events. And then also what came up is me wondering if I will be a good mum because I'm not the most maternal person. So I looked at this page and I was like, wow, there's actually so many beliefs that I had around becoming

a mum and becoming pregnant. And the big thing about limiting beliefs is, you know, if we have beliefs around, like negative beliefs around the thing we want or the thing we want to do, the thing we want to attract, it will be harder to attract it in our life because deep down, on a subconscious level, we think it's going to be bad or negative and whatnot. So I kind of sat there and I was like, wow, it

kind of makes sense. Why, you know, me and Tim's trying to conceive journey may have taken a lot longer, and it's because I had a lot of limiting beliefs around getting pregnant and being a mum. So then on the next page, I wrote down how to disarm that limiting belief and I guess how to prove it wrong.

So this is definitely the next step. And something you guys can do is when you have a limiting belief around something that could be subconsciously stopping you from achieving that next level success, abundance, a new partner, whatever you're trying to manifest, it's time to disarm it and really kind of prove yourself wrong. So what I tell you guys to do in the course, again, obviously this is just brisking across the service and surface. Sorry, and I go a lot deeper in the course, but the whole

thing is to disarm it and prove it wrong. So on the other page, I then started writing out a whole bunch of sentences that were opposite to my belief. So I've written stuff like there are so many success for women with you know, children who go on to be super successful, to go on to have amazing careers, and you know whatnot, So I'm proving like the first one wrong. I also wrote down a lot of the

belief of you know, like giving up your career. I wrote down, which I absolutely love that I wrote this down, But I said, in lots of circumstances, someone's career won't start until they have children. Like if you look at you know, companies that are based on children's clothing or helping a problem in you know, mum life world, that person didn't find their career or they didn't find their you know, message and business until they were pregnant, until

they were a mum. So basically I just wrote down things like I can you know, get pregnant, I can become a mum, and I can become more successful. I can find my purpose and my why. I can have you know, enough time to balance it all. And I just wrote down a whole bunch of sentences that were opposite to my limiting beliefs. And also something to do to prove yourself wrong is go out and seek people

who have done the opposite. So for example, I remember I then read Emma Isaac's book which is called Winging It. So Emma Isaacs is the founder and CEO of Business Checks, which is like I'm pretty sure it's like a marketing a network marketing business that is huge. And so I read her book and she has like five kids like crazy, and you know, runs this very successful business, love what she does, loves having children and all these things, and it was like just so nice to see, you know,

to prove my limiting belief wrong. I also read the book Lucky Bitch by Denise Duffelfield Thomas, who also is a business woman who has children, and you know, really proves that, you know, limiting belief wrong. Also another big person is I'm having a mental blank here Jenna Kutcher from the gold Digger podcast, who has to well she's pregnant with one and has a child and chats about how to be a mum and a successful business woman and whatnot. So very much go out and prove yourself

wrong with these limiting beliefs. And so I did that, and I've written in this journal entry and it's just like so cool to see, you know, my limiting beliefs, my thinking possibly what could have been, you know, not letting me attract what I want and thinking in this very single minded, one level way. And then I started to think about it, and so I think also in my head, I had, you know, with getting pregnant, i'd have to slow down and then take time off for

baby girl. And don't get me wrong, I want to do those things, and of course you have to do those things. But I was reflecting on my pregnancy, and I was like, you know what's actually really crazy is this year I have had so many really exciting things that have made me feel empowered and motivated and successful and really kind of breaking the barrier of what I thought,

you know, pregnancy and becoming a mum would be like. So, just for example, some highlights of my year was I did a shoot for Lorna Jane and I did their

maternity shoot. And it's funny because Lorna Jane, I think I'm showing my age here, but back when I first got into fitness when I was eighteen, Lanna Jane was like the place that you shopped and I remembered him like that was like the present that he used to buy me some like tights and a bra from Lorna Jane, and I like, I loved everything about like Lorna Jane

herself and whatnot. And so to have the opportunity to shoot with Lorna Jane herself to shoot a maternity campaign, I did think to myself, this opportunity only came up because I was pregnant, and isn't that such an interesting concept. I hadn't even let my mind think that when you're you know, pregnant and your new mum, and you go into this new journey, there's actually going to be new opportunities that excite you. I had completely not even you know,

let that be a possibility. Another really cool thing that happened was my Bloom collection with Pedal and Put, which is very much about creating a bump friendly collection. So obviously anyone who isn't pregnant can wear it also, but the whole thing was to create a collection that you know, new moms and also pregnant women feel confident in. And again, I don't think that opportunity would have come up if I wasn't pregnant. Another that's a huge thing too, is

I'm a bit of a control freak. Even though I have the most amazing team at Naked Harvest, I very much like I would call myself the creative director of Naked Harvest, and I very much yeah, even though I had a supportive team in the thick of it, didn't like letting go of control. And so obviously a huge thing since getting pregnant is putting things in place so the team can run without me when I go on maternity leave, and at the moment we are like three

to four months ahead. I've approved everything, Like if I was to go into labor next week, it would be so fine. I wouldn't need to touch anything in Naked Harvest. And that is such a big difference compared to what

it was like previously. And I think when you are running, you know, like a company, like a big company, it is important that you let go of control and you surrender and it be able to run without you, because I guess that's you know, the difference between a small business and a company is you're not doing all the jobs. You have a team, you have support, and for a long time, I really didn't see how that worked with

Naked Harvest because I was so involved in everything. So to have formed this new view where I was like, wow, like we've really set and like, don't get me wrong, it's not just me going see you guys like have fun. I have set it up this way. I've worked with you know, the NH team. We obviously have such an amazing team. But that I guarantee you never would have happened if it wasn't like, well, I have to step away,

so I have to set this up. So there's some like really cool like opportunities and like a next level of success that I don't think, well it may have, but I don't think would have happened unless I was pregnant. So that's when I started to kind of be like, wow, it is so cool to you know, see me journaling these limiting beliefs, disarm them, have these new beliefs around possibilities and opportunities, and then reflect on my year and see that play out exactly, you know, with those new beliefs.

So the whole point of this episode, guys is I want you to get out of your own way. If you currently have like, let's just think of, you know, your goals, what you're trying to attract, your next level you like, really get clear on what that is, but also get clear on your limiting beliefs around why that

can't happen now, why that can't happen super fast. Because a lot of people, you know, they will have these big goals, but they're like, oh, yeah, you know, well I can buy that house, but it will be two years time or you know, when I have to I have to do this first and then I can have

that goal. And so I want you to really dig deep and look at your limiting beliefs because in your head, like for example, I think for me to believe that you have to slow down and do less when you're pregnant in your when you're pregnant and a new mum is completely normal. Like I feel like that's what most people think. Also, But how cool that I completely proved myself wrong and when I look at my pregnancy like

it's crazy. There's opportunities that have come up, the exciting projects that have happened, and how I have reached that next level of success in my own eyes with you know, making sure the business can run itself. And so that's what I'm saying is I guarantee you you have some limiting beliefs around this goal, around your next level self,

and it's time to dig deeper. It's time to prove yourself wrong and really kind of look at things like I think as humans, we do tend to see the negative in things like that's kind of our ego and also us just being you know, thinking things through. But it's like instead of thinking, well, that can't happen, or it can't happen now, or this, and that, it's like I guarantee you there's someone who has done the thing you want to do, you know, faster, Who has done

it now, who has done it with less resources? Who has you know, really proven your limiting belief wrong. Go out and seek you know people through that, whether it's through podcasts or on Instagram, or just believing a new truth. So it's like the quote, whether you believe it or

you don't believe it, you were correct. And so that quote really comes from the fact of just like I said in my head, if you know, I had believed that you had to go slower and you have to slow down, and you know certain things happen when you're pregnant and you become a new mum, and that definitely could have been my truth. But I chose a new belief.

I chose to say, hey, you actually might have some cool opportunities, you actually might reach that next level of success or you know this and that, and now looking back, like that's completely what I have manifested. And that's what you know, we talk about all the time of creating your own reality, because whether you believe it's true or not,

you are correct. So let's believe the positive beliefs. Let's believe the beliefs that are like one in the million, but they can be true rather than the typical oh well, I can't have that thing for this and that reason, or because I don't have this, or I need to do this thirst or you know whatnot. And it's okay to be human and to have those thoughts. But guys, like trust me, even just having this new belief will completely open your mind. It will completely open your subconscious

mind too, and you will start attracting different things. And that's the whole thing. Changing your reality is like, we have to start with our beliefs. That's it's where it all starts. But yes, thank you so much for listening. I heard this episode was informative and helpful and I will I'll see my next one. Bye for now. So guys, I know in this episode I mentioned my Rise and

Conquer six week manifesting and development course. This is a course that has changed thousands of lives and basically teaches you how to goal set, how to manifest, attract things, and do it in a very unique, flowy, easy, aligned way. The feedback from this course is it's life changing once you do it. Once you have these tools, you will use them for the rest of your life. And it is super empowering, it is super informative, and it's definitely a new way of doing things. It's going to really

expand your mind. It's going to test your core beliefs, it is going to teach you so much. So you might have heard in previous episodes this is a closed course, so we do enrollments where it's open two to three times per year. We have a group, we go through it together. There's a Facebook group and there's live calls. Obviously, at the moment, I'm currently on maternity leave, soaking up that newborn bubble with Tim and just figuring out how

to be new parents. So I usually do an enrollment in the New Year, because that's when you know people are wanting to make that move, they're wanting to go after goals, and unfortunately it's just not possible to do

at the moment. I've had a lot of conversations in my DMS, and basically what we are doing is we have decided to leave the course open just for that December New Year period for people who feel like they really need it in their life, and they're also happy to go through it in their own time by themselves. So everyone who gets the course even in live enrollments, does have lifetime access. You don't have to do it with the group. That's just what we have previously done.

So yeah, I just wanted to let you guys know. I'm not publicizing it too much just because I do prefer the live enrollments, But for those who have heard a bit about the course and you're like, yes, this is what I need to get unstuck to go after what I want and to really you know, manifest my dream life in twenty twenty two, it is currently open and you can just go throughout it in your own time. A module will unlock every seven days and you complete it.

You will all also have access to all the previous Q and as. There's quite a few previous Q and A calls, so honestly most of your questions will be answered. But we also do have a Facebook group and that is for all time alumni, so that is people are in there who have completed the course, plus more of you who are doing the course in their own time, and I will be jumping in there and also my podcast manager will be jumping in there if you do

have any questions. So I just thought i'd let you know that is available, that won't be available the whole year. We will close it a little bit after the new year. We just wanted to give that option because I know a lot of people wanted that, And the next live enrollment will probably be mid year. So if you can't wait and you're like, no, I need this at start of the year, I want to go through it myself, there's a link in the show, It's on my website,

all those good things. And also, guys, if you have previously bought the course, whether it's a previous round or at the moment and you're going through it in your own time, you can always join the next live enrollment, So you would just email us and just say, hey, I purchased it on this date. I just want to be added to the Facebook group and do the live enrollment, you know, whether that is midyear with the new group. So yeah, you're definitely not missing out on anything. But
