Feeling burnt out, unfulfilled, and in overdrive?? We live in a world where we operate from our analytical brains. As much as that is needed and has its place, if we don't balance it with soulful creation, we will be left feeling passionless and stuck. In today's episode, we discuss WHY we need to incorporate both energies and how it's actually advantageous to create from a heart led place. As our truest core, we are divine intelligence and consciousness and the sure way to tap into that wisdom is to get out of our heads and into our hearts. I share exactly HOW to actually get in that space, one of them being to spend less time on your phone so I also share tips on that to cut the distraction. .Thailand Wellness Retreat // https://trovatrip.com/trip/asia/thailand/thailand-with-olivia-catania-nov-2025.Timestamps0:00 Welcome and Gratitude!3:47 The Innate Wisdom of BEING12:11 How to Get into Your Heart Space28:07 Tips to Get off of Your Phone and Stop Scrolling36:55 Summary and Affirmation38:18 Livfiit Thailand Retreat!

"If you think the price of winning is too high, wait until you get the bill of regret." Today's epi is about recognizing our responsibility and the power we truly hold in our lives to create something meaningful and fulfilling! In a world full of victim mentality and waiting for handouts, know that you have the magic and autonomy within you and even when motivation runs low and continuing to pioneer forward feels hard, remember how hard the other option of stagnancy and unfulfillment is too. There truly are two hards in life and the choice is yours, just know one lasts much longer than the other overtime. Not stepping into your true potential and living a life you're unhappy with really comes with a price that may be steeper than you thought - for yourself and your loved ones. We're diving into it today with the intention to give you the spark and encouragement to keep going, keep showing up, and keep doing things that future you deserves! As always - I say everything today with so much love <3.Thailand Wellness Retreat // https://trovatrip.com/trip/asia/thailand/thailand-with-olivia-catania-nov-2025.Timestamps0:00 Hello!!4:12 "If you think the price of winning is too high, wait until you get the bill of regret."8:19 Intentional living is so important!!11:05 YOU pay the price of not following your dreams13:26 Self respect is a must!15:15 Your health, happiness, and fulfillment is your responsibility22:00 How your loved ones are impacted28:03 Summary and Affirmation.Affirmation: “Every action, thought, and belief of mine is aligned with the life of my dreams and my higher self.”.WATCH ON YOUTUBE // https://www.youtube.com/@livfiitlistens/videos.Shop my favorite books here // https://www.amazon.com/shop/livfiit?listId=20MNY4GGY77KN*This is my affiliated Amazon Storefront.

Man I went through some MAJOR mindset reflection the other day and I just had to share it with you. It is so common to feel fearful and not good enough in the face of an uplevel and that's what tends to hold people back and keep them in a loop. If you want different, you need to move different and for long enough to create change! Your next level reality and upgraded identity is on the other side of pushing past limiting beliefs and learning to endure the initial phases of uncomfortability to see it through. You DO have what it takes and you ARE good enough and I am going to tell you why in today's epi <3.Thailand Wellness Retreat // https://trovatrip.com/trip/asia/thailand/thailand-with-olivia-catania-nov-2025.Timestamps0:00 Mini update and gratitude3:48 My recent experience of shrinking in the face of expansive opportunities6:32 Limiting beliefs will keep your life small if you don't clear them!!9:58 Uncomfortability and fear is part of the expansive process to get to the other side.14:09 Limiting beliefs CANNOT come with you to the next level, so they must get purged.18:11 Debunking the fear of taking of space22:10 If feels scary, that's okay.23:52 How to actually embody this new identity?30:02 Summary and Affirmation.Affirmation: "I feel safe being seen and taking up space in my fullest, most expansive form.".WATCH ON YOUTUBE // https://www.youtube.com/@livfiitlistens/videos.Shop my favorite books here // https://www.amazon.com/shop/livfiit?listId=20MNY4GGY77KN*This is my affiliated Amazon Storefront.
