When we’re young, we believe everything is possible. We dream big, imagine superpowers, and trust that we can have love, wealth, purpose, and joy.... EVERYTHING, all at once. But somewhere along the way, we’re taught to settle. To be grateful for “enough.”In this episode, we'll explore the unconscious beliefs we adopt that tell us it’s wrong to want more—more money, more love, more freedom. These beliefs quietly shape our lives, creating internal conflict and keeping us from going after what we truly desire.You’ll learn:Why your brain might actually resist the very things you say you wantHow early messages like “Don’t be greedy” are still driving your choicesWhat it takes to shift into conscious desire without shame or fearA personal story about naming my upcoming event Have It All—and the resistance that came with itThis episode is for anyone who’s tired of settling for “fine,” and ready to reclaim what they truly want.Want to go deeper?Join Meg live at "Have It All," the transformational experience where we unpack the unseen beliefs that block our deepest desires—from our relationships to our bank accounts.

How many times have you gotten upset with your partner—not because of what they actually said or did, but because of what you assumed they meant?Assumptions are at the root of so many relationship struggles. We assume we know what our partner meant, so we get defensive. We assume we know their intentions, so we judge them. We assume we know how they feel, so we react—without ever checking if any of it is actually true.In this episode, I share a personal story about how a simple change in plans led to an unnecessary misunderstanding—all because of assumptions. I also break down: • Why our brains are wired to assume (and how it works against us) • How assumptions trigger us and make real communication impossible • The simple shift that stops assumptions in their tracks • What to say instead of assuming, so you can actually understand each otherIf you’ve ever found yourself reacting before you even know the full story, this episode is for you. 🔗 Resources & Links: • Connect with me on Facebook Insta TikTok • Want more relationship insights?

In this episode, we dive into a crucial aspect of relationships—understanding the difference between reaction and response, or put another way, conscious action versus impulsive reaction. I break down what these terms really mean and how we often get caught up in reactions driven by our emotional triggers, which can lead to conflict and disconnection in our relationships.We explore emotional triggers using a relatable analogy: triggers are like pressure cookers—building over time until something small causes them to release all that pent-up pressure. I share my personal experience of being triggered in a conversation with my partner, and how understanding the underlying emotion helped me respond more thoughtfully.Tune in as I offer five practical tips for recognizing when you’re reacting instead of responding, and how you can use that awareness to create more intentional and supportive interactions with your partner. If you’ve ever found yourself feeling out of control in the heat of the moment, this episode is for you!Key Points: • The difference between reaction (emotion-driven) and response (awareness-driven) • Understanding emotional triggers and the pressure cooker analogy • My personal story of being triggered and how I learned from it • Five practical steps to shift from reacting to responding in your relationship • The importance of pausing, reflecting, and creating space between your emotions and your actionsPractical Tips: 1. Check Your Body – Notice physical signs of stress (tightness, clenching, racing heart). 2. Pause and Breathe – Practice breathing techniques to calm your nervous system. 3. Identify the Trigger – Ask yourself what just happened and why you feel this way. 4. Reflect Before Responding – Take time before responding to think clearly. 5. Practice Mindfulness – Incorporate habits like meditation and journaling to increase self-awareness.

In this episode I dive into how our perceptions and the stories we create in our minds can control our behavior and reactions in relationships. Often, we’re not responding to what’s actually happening but to the narrative we’ve built around it. I share a personal example from my relationship with Walt, where I realized I was reacting to a story rather than what was happening in the moment. I'll explore how to recognize when you’re caught in a narrative, why releasing that story is essential for closeness, and how you can step back into the present moment with your partner. I’ll also share a few practical tips to help you break free from those stories and foster a deeper connection.What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • How the mind creates stories that distort reality. • The impact these stories have on your behavior and reactions in relationships. • How to recognize whether you’re reacting to a story or the present moment. • Tips for letting go of your story to stay connected with your partner. • Why releasing your own narrative is key to building closeness and trust.Episode Highlights: • A personal example from my relationship with Walt and how I realized I was reacting to a story, not reality. • How to recognize the signs of being caught in a mental narrative. • Tips to let go of your story and stay present with your partner.Tune in and learn how to break free from the stories in your head and build a more present, connected relationship.Are you ready to improve your relationship???Click here to book a free discovery call, and we can talk about how you can begin TODAY!
