Facts / Strategy learnings:

She has lived and worked in 6 countries on 3 continents and always tried to fit in and meet the expectations of other people which was pure hell
by experiencing for herself, how to move beyond fear she became a student of fear
fear is an action signal
emotions are nothing but signs and informations, ‘the reader´s digest’, of what´s going on in your environment and what you need to do
the conscious mind processes 40 bits of information per second, the subconscious about 4 Mio.
sorts of fear:
1. when life is in danger, the fight & flight response kicks in as survival instinct
2. our bodies are wired for homeostasis, balance and safety and we tend to resist sudden changes
we experience dark times to appreciate the bright sides, everything has an opposite, the Avatar Animal at Freestyle-Your-Life is the tiger showing his bright and dark side depending on what perspective you take
the core of human suffering is that we reject the shadow/ dark side
everybody looks from their point of view, what people think about you has nothing to do with you but only with them
there is no need to be everything for everybody and to fit in, step out of there as lying to yourself and not being honest with yourself is leading to illness, celebrate rejection

Tips & Tricks / Secrets:

if we try to stuff the fear, transformation or distract ourselves, we´re shooting the manager
when fear arises, ask yourself what you don´t want to happen and articulate what your specific fear is, without making stories about it and also become clear of what you want to happen (worst case scenario and plan B)
e.g.cancer patient mostly have the fear of occurence, of the cancer coming back
they should ask what they most likely could do to maximize their chances of not dying and preventing
curiosity is the super power here, instead of addressing the neg. outcome in our questions we should address the positive outcome and be grateful for the signs the fear provides
we both moved away from a divorce and the fear pointed us into authenticity and eliminating what is not working for us
Ania specialized on how fear plays into resistance to change and gets in the way of successful transition and founded the ‘Mastering Transitions Coaching’, I created the FLY-Freestyle-Your-Life System helping you to find back to yourself and enjoy life on own authentic terms, we share our mission to elevate the consciousness
after countless symptoms showed up and burned me out, I transformed over and over, stepped out of all destructive patterns of behaviour and all the roles and fake play of trying to fit in (e.g. learned to say no, being a people pleaser and empath which led to illness)
start questioning the roles you play and what is going on in your life and why you´re doing what you do and be curious for the new and unknown
we both help to navigate transitions as this is a process to become your authentic self
it is important to navigate transitions without missing the steps on the way, mostly the old is no longer there and the new has not arrived yet and we´re stuck in the messy place in the middle with all neg. emotions such as fear, grief, uncertainty
we need to learn to embrace the suck and shadows and integrate them
honor the struggle in order to become whole with all aspects and live in oneness and authentic
when we accept the pain and struggle being associated with the things we want as price we need to pay to have it, the resistance goes down
start strengthening the muscle of true words and start practising decoding your emotions, acknowledge your feelings and tune into it
we discussed also the book of Vishen Lakhiani, mindset coach we both admire and his fantastic book ‘The Code of the extraordinary mind’
do more of what makes you feeling great and delegate or outsource the rest
experience and learn about yourself and pursuit in generosity and Love, being your authentic self is your best service to the world

Takeaways:

fear points us towards something important that needs to happen in order to move towards the authentic real life and living in truth
the fear shows us the blind spots, what we are yearning for and where we need to put attention to
if something does not work for you it creates stress which is a physical phenomenon, a biochemical ‘soup’ inside your body that affects how you think, feel and interact
when fear shows up it is your subconscious mind, heart and soul screaming at you ‘please I beg you, come back to yourself and align with yourself’
the world is not going to be the same unless you show up authentically as you´re designed to be
be the most authentic you and show up authentically and attract those who want to be in your orbit
