  The "Not There Yet" Trap: Creating From Play vs. Pressure, Releasing Old Beliefs & Making Miracles Possible with Dr. Steven Young

  Sep 29, 202657 minS2

  No matter how much you accomplish, there's a voice that says you're not there yet. I lived from that voice for 40 years, all the way into burnout. My guest has spent 37 years understanding where that voice comes from and how to live and create from a different place. Dr. Steve Young has treated over 9,000 patients holistically and studies how our mind, body, and spirit work as one. When I asked him how he wanted to be introduced, he sent me one line: "Steve Young, like all humans, is just humaning as best as he can." We talk about: Where the feeling of "not there yet" actually comes from, and why nothing you accomplish makes it go away A one-word identity shift that changes how your work feels, whether you're building a company or answering email all day The stories you've been wearing as your identity, and who you meet when you take one off Learn more about Dr. Steve Young and his work: drsteveyoung.com Ready to create your next chapter? https://www.natalykogan.com/create-your-next ✨ Work with Nataly: https://www.natalykogan.com/ Books & Journals: https://www.natalykogan.com/books

  Walk With Me: The Expertise Amnesia That Makes You Feel Like a Beginner

  Sep 15, 202611 minS2

  When you start something new, it’s easy to feel like a beginner. I see this all the time with incredibly accomplished people. They leave the company, role, or career where they developed their expertise, and suddenly it feels like all that expertise stayed behind. I call this Expertise Amnesia. In this Walk With Me episode, I’m inviting you to think about: Why starting something new can make you forget how much expertise and experience you already have How Expertise Amnesia can affect the way you talk about your work, what you go after, and even what you charge What’s already on your “palette”: the experiences, wisdom, judgment, and natural gifts you get to bring with you into whatever you create next You may be doing something you’ve never done before. But you are never starting from scratch.

  What Do You Do When the Life You Built No Longer Fits - with Mark J. Platten

  Sep 1, 20261h 3mS2

  How long have you been waiting for the right moment to start the thing that's calling you? Mark Platten built a career most people would envy, first as an Air Force officer, then in academia and international consulting. Then one ordinary afternoon in his backyard, he heard one sentence that named what he already knew: you're doing good work in the world, it's just not your soul work. Today Mark writes, leads men's work, and guides people through their crossroads, the place I call the goo. What makes this conversation rare is that he's sharing from the middle of it, not from the polished other side. We talk about: The moment Mark realized he was living two different lives, and the two years he spent finding reasons to stay in the wrong one The challenges and the beauty of shifting from doing what you should to doing what is calling to you Two practices anyone can use to connect with their younger selves and the subconscious that's quietly running the show Learn more about Mark and his work: markjplatten.com Ready to create your next chapter? https://www.natalykogan.com/create-your-next ✨ Work with Nataly: https://www.natalykogan.com/ Books & Journals: https://www.natalykogan.com/books Loving the show?

  Wired for Money with Michelle Masters

  Aug 18, 20261h 5mS2

  What if money was never meant to be hard? SPECIAL NOTE: Toward the end of this episode, Michelle Masters walks you through an actual practice to begin releasing the blocks you carry around money, so this is one to listen to when you can be still for a few minutes and let it land. Michelle has spent three decades helping people understand why money feels so hard and where our blocks around money come from. Her answers are not what you expect. The deepest blocks don't live in your bank account or your habits. They live in old childhood beliefs, in loyalty to the people you came from, and in your sense of what you quietly believe you deserve. In this conversation, we talk about: Why the deepest money blocks are subconscious, and why working harder, budgeting, and affirmations so often fail to move them How family and ancestral loyalty quietly caps what you let yourself earn and receive, and how to spot it running in your own life A reframe that can soften years of money guilt, plus the guided practice Michelle walks you through to begin releasing those blocks And much more. This is a conversation about telling yourself the truth about what you really want, money included, and letting yourself create your next chapter without carrying everyone else's story on your shoulders.

  In this Walk With Me episode, recorded on the 37th anniversary of the day I arrived in the United States as a refugee, I share the shift I experienced when I began to tell my story through a different lens. For years, I told the story of coming to the US as a refugee as one of overcoming struggle. But when I looked at it through a different lens, that chapter reveal something I missed for almost four decades. Recognizing it has already expanded what I'm creating now. In this episode, I'm inviting you to think about: The story you're telling right now about your hardest chapter, and what it's quietly costing your next one Why the same facts can shrink your future or expand it, depending on the lens you choose What you were creating during the exact years you thought you were only surviving Ready to create your next chapter? https://www.natalykogan.com/create-your-next ✨ Work with Nataly: https://www.natalykogan.com/ Books & Journals: https://www.natalykogan.com/books Loving the show?
