How do we motivate kids to do the things they have to do? With snacks and prizes, gold stars, minutes on the iPad?
That's what most parents, caregivers, and teachers do nowadays but, is it actually working?

Today we talk about how to motivate and honor the efforts kids are making so they're not dependent on the prize!

We have all experienced a physiological reaction when we hear our phone ding, our kids ask to watch a show or feel like we've misplaced our beloved device. It's because our world circles around screens and they have snuck into every way of our being. If we don't learn how to work with it and find a healthy balance, it will overload our dopamine systems to wanting more and more with no end in sight. Without healthy boundaries around our devices, our lives fall out of balance and into dysregulation. This episode shares our take on how we can reflect on how the use of technology needs some attention and thought, So, here are some of our thoughts to start the conversation.

In today's episode, we walk through our own path getting into brain reorganization and subconscious belief work. We go through our trajectory and identify the different spots where we've experienced resistance (to a new idea, to the brainwork, to certain beliefs). Then we talk about how we worked through them!

It's a different episode from our usual, please let us know if you like it!

In today's episode, we connect with Dani's childhood best friend, Lindsay. Lindsay has been around the concept of ITC for quite some time but hasn't been fully ready to look at her subconscious programming until just recently. We talk through her story and how her brainwork has given her the ability to face the challenging conversations that she has been avoiding for so many years. We talk about what is codependency and how that's related to an unintegrated brain and subconscious programming. We explore how this is showing up for Lindsay and then we do a reconnect to help her learn to love herself from a subconscious level!

It's an episode everyone will resonate with either from a personal or familiar level.

In this episode, we look at the after: what does life look like after you reorganize your brain? And how do you handle dysregulation?

A lot of people think that once you've done the work, you're done. No more to do, life will now be sunshine and daisies. But...we're human after all! Life is unpredictable and even people with the most organized brain will get rattled once in a while.

The difference is that after brain reorganization, we deal with those situations so differently!
