March 27, 2024 18:51 - 50 minutes - 116 MB

WTF is NLP? Cutting Through the Noise with Life Coach Jerrica Norton

August 16, 2023 11:00 - 1 hour - 43.1 MB

Neuro linguistic programming studies the ways our thoughts affect our behavior. Through the work we uncover what thoughts are actually running the show under the hood of what we consciously recognize. If you've tried a bunch of different tools and know what you need to do but just aren't doing the thing and don't understand why- NLP might be a helpful modality in uncovering what's at the root of it.

The Deeper Responsibility of Photographing a Family with Childhood Photographer Carly Mitchell

March 22, 2023 06:00 - 46 minutes - 31.9 MB

For whatever reason, the distinction of nice vs kind has stuck with me ever since I was made aware of it. As someone that loves to comfort and make people happy, it's something I purposely check in with myself on.  Being nice is so much easier than being kind. Being nice satisfies this moment. Being kind is doing something that may feel uncomfortable or scary in order to act in what you believe to be the highest good for another. That's what I feel when I think about saying "yes" to an initi...

Are you using your fear as a security blanket? And if not “fear”, can you substitute a feeling that you struggle against but if you really stop to think about it, you might be the one grasping onto it? I had a crazy revelation during a visioning NLP process. For so long I have felt shackled to fear- as if it was an anchor holding me down against my will. But through this exercise I realized that I have been holding onto fear for dear life. Keeping it as close as possible because letting ...

Contrary to popular belief- I don’t believe we must wait to share from the scar and not the wound.  In fact, I actually think this perpetuates a world where we are all putting on a show for one another when really, we ache in a million different ways that we’ll never know we share because we are told to wait until we heal to speak.  That’s a big no from me. We don’t need to wait to search for connection or tell our truths until we feel wiser or far enough from it to be able to speak with ...

While I don’t believe you as the artist have to be able to articulate clearly your “why” and all of the other heavy shit that it feels almost impossible to verbalize- I believe when your soul is able to recognize the space between what you’re creating and what you’re feeling, you build an invincible trust with yourself. You gain deeper satisfaction. There is a depth to the work that feels rich with possibility. And what if that very space between what you are creating and what you are feeli...
