In this grounded and deeply relatable solo episode, Marsha opens up about why the holiday season can trigger old patterns, heavy memories, and emotional spirals — and how to rewrite those automatic responses in real time. She shares a personal moment while decorating her Christmas tree that revealed just how quickly the brain slips into past stories, fear-based thinking, and bracing for the worst.

Marsha walks listeners through a powerful reminder: your past does not predict your future and your subconscious is simply trying to keep you safe based on outdated information. Using breathwork, presence, and nervous system regulation, she guides you to shift out of old loops and into a more grounded, peaceful December. Consider this episode your holiday reset — especially if this season tends to feel heavy, overwhelming, or emotionally loaded.

In this episode, Marsha breaks down the real reason so many high achieving women feel stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated with their results even when they’re “doing everything right.” She explains the crucial difference between ambition (your conscious goals, vision, and drive) and capacity (your subconscious beliefs, emotional safety, and nervous system bandwidth) — and why misalignment between the two creates shutdown, procrastination, and self protection that masquerades as sabotage.

Marsha also shares how she handles year end planning, why recapping and stacking wins matters more than rushing into a new vision board, and how her own patterns of ambition once led to burnout. This episode is a grounding reminder that you are not too much, your desires are not too big, and your subconscious simply needs to feel safe enough to hold what you’re building.

Highlights

[00:45] Why you must recap the year before you vision for the next one

[03:20] Stacking your wins so your subconscious has evidence of growth

[05:55] The quote that shifted everything: ambition without capacity becomes self sabotage

[07:42] Conscious mind vs subconscious mind and why they must agree

[10:12] How your body hits the brakes when your goals don’t feel safe

[12:38] Self sabotage vs self protection and why the distinction matters

[14:55] A real example of setting a goal your nervous system can’t yet hold

[17:40] Why building capacity is more important than any vision board

[20:33] How Marsha is restructuring support, systems, and her team

[22:50] The pattern she had to break: ambition that pushes into burnout

[24:13] Solidifying foundations so your ambition can finally work for you

In this episode, Marsha breaks down one of the most powerful metaphors she's ever heard about the subconscious mind. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right — checking the boxes, setting goals, mapping the plan — yet still not seeing the results you want, this one is going to hit home.

Using the imagery of a state of the art GPS (your conscious mind) sitting on top of an outdated paper road map (your subconscious mind), Marsha explains why your inner operating systems must match if you want real, lasting change. She walks you through why we get stuck, why the subconscious pulls us back to the familiar even when it no longer serves us, and how upgrading your inner identity creates the safety you need to move forward.

This is a must listen for anyone who feels the internal tug of war between where they want to go and what their old patterns are trying to keep them safe from.

Episode Highlights [00:50] Why metaphors help the subconscious process and learn [02:30] The conscious mind as the goal setter and 5 percent of the equation [04:40] The subconscious as the outdated paper map trying to keep you safe [06:55] Why you feel stuck even when you're doing everything "right" [10:10] The internal tug of war and the danger of attaching meaning to it [12:15] Why internal safety determines what you can hold and create [14:40] You cannot build a new life on top of an old identity [16:10] Aligning your GPS and your map so the road finally clears

In this episode, Marsha recounts a powerful story known as "The Acres of Diamonds," from Matt Cook's book, Beyond Wanting, which illustrates how individuals frequently overlook the treasures that lie within their own lives while searching desperately for fulfillment elsewhere. The tale follows a farmer in 1800s Africa who, driven by the desire to provide for his family, sells his farm in pursuit of diamonds. After years of fruitless searching and ultimately losing everything, he tragically takes his own life. Ironically, the new owner of the farmer's land discovers that it sits atop one of the richest diamond mines in history, highlighting the notion that what we seek is often right in front of us.

In this episode, Marsha speaks to the distinction between operating under pressure and embracing a state of internal power. Marsha introduces the concept of the "ceiling" and "floor" in relation to personal beliefs and aspirations. The ceiling represents the highest thoughts one allows themselves to entertain, while the floor symbolizes the deepest beliefs that anchor an individual. She explains that our lives are constructed within the space between these two points, shaped by subconscious programming rather than mere strategy.

Marsha discusses the importance of recognizing and challenging limiting beliefs, asserting that individuals do not rise to their goals but rather to the level of their beliefs. She encourages listeners to identify their biggest thoughts and visualize them expansively, while also acknowledging the smaller, limiting beliefs that often hold them back. HIGHLIGHTS 00:01:00 - The Difference Between Pressure and Power 00:02:30 - Understanding Your Ceiling and Floor 00:04:00 - The Role of Subconscious Programming 00:05:30 - Expanding Your Ceiling Through Visualization 00:07:00 - Changing Identity to Achieve Goals 00:08:30 - The Importance of Beliefs and Emotions 00:10:00 - The Magic of Raising Your Floor 00:11:30 - Conclusion and Call to Action Marsha Vanwynsberghe — NLP Storytelling Trainer, OUTSPOKEN NLP Coaching Certification, Author, Speaker, and Podcaster

In this episode, I am speaking with Meredith Oke. Meredith is the Co-Founder of the Quantum Biology Collective, a Podcast Host, and a Speaker, and she is passionate about bridging the gap between cutting-edge science and everyday well-being. After facing her own health challenges, Meredith discovered the emerging field of quantum biology—the science of how light, water, and circadian rhythms influence human health at the cellular level.

Through her work, she helps people move beyond surface-level health fixes and instead address the "light side" of health—how our environment, routines, and habits signal the body to thrive. Her gift lies in translating complex scientific concepts into simple, actionable strategies that help people enhance their sleep, energy, focus, and overall vitality.

Meredith's mission is to empower others to understand their own biology and reclaim agency over their health and life. By adjusting daily choices related to light exposure, technology use, and rhythms, her clients and listeners discover how small, consistent changes can lead to powerful transformations.
