It might be one of the signs you're uplevelling.In today's episode, I'm talking about what's really happening in your subconscious when everything feels foggy, overwhelming, and off-track. The truth is, sometimes the most uncomfortable moments are actually proof that you're expanding beyond your comfort zone. So, if you've been showing up, doing the work, challenging yourself, and suddenly everything feels misaligned - congratulations! You're likely in the midst of a powerful uplevel. Join me as I walk you through the seven distinct signs that show you're growing even when it feels like failing, and how to tell the difference between true sabotage and necessary shifts. I'll share micro-subconscious actions that will help you stay anchored while moving through this challenging but necessary phase of growth. Don't abandon that version of you that's trying to lead right now - she's here, even if you cannot fully see her yet.Topics covered on Signs You’re Upleveling:Why might sudden inner chaos actually be a sign of your biggest business breakthrough yet?What is a neural mismatch, and how is it affecting your business?What are the seven signs you’re uplevelling?This is how you spot if you’re self-sabotaging or genuinely shifting your identity.What to do next when you notice signs you’re uplevelling?Connect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram  | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at https://rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/7-messy-signs-youre-upleveling

Did you know the NLP techniques I use are working on your subconscious even right now at this exact moment? Those "throwaway questions" I ask? That colour we keep talking about? The random conversation when you're spiralling? None of that is bloody random! Your subconscious is being rewired completely on the sly, and it's working because you don't even notice it happening.In today's episode, I'm spilling my favourite NLP techniques – from the Milton model (the deliberately vague language that makes your subconscious fill in the blanks) to pattern interrupts (why I sometimes call you mid-meltdown) to timeline therapy (how we change meanings without reliving trauma). Your business cannot outgrow your mindset, which is why I'm so cheeky with these techniques. Because they're getting you results while bypassing your logical brain entirely.This episode will show you how your subconscious is being influenced in ways you didn't even realise. Let's tune in! It'll blow your mind!Topics covered on NLP Techniques:What’s really happening in your subconscious mind when I ask those seemingly casual questions?Why do I so often use vague language when speaking to your subconscious mind?What’s the misconception about NLP techniques that actually makes them more effective?How am I using these NLP techniques on this very podcast without you noticing?Which NLP techniques do clients love the most?How can these NLP techniques help you grow your business and smash your goals?Connect with Rebecca Haydon:NLP Waitlist - https://www.rebeccahaydon.com/nlp-waitlist Apply to work with meCome say hi on Instagram  | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at https://rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/sneaky-nlp-techniques-i-use-on-you-without-you-noticing

How do you know if the missing piece in your business is strategy or subconscious? Honestly, it's rarely one without the other. In today's episode, I'm breaking down a question straight from one of my clients that might be the missing piece to why you keep spinning your bloody wheels.When your launches don't convert or your audience feels quiet, your first instinct is to tweak your messaging, niche down, or completely overhaul your offer – but here's the truth... You cannot see strategy clearly when operating from a dysregulated nervous system.So I'm going to walk you through how your prefrontal cortex (the CEO of your brain) literally goes offline when your subconscious perceives a threat, leaving you making decisions from your emotional limbic system. You'll learn how to identify if you're in "self" (calm, confident, capable) or being run by a protective part, plus questions to ask yourself when you feel stuck. Your subconscious is the operating system, and your strategy is the map – now let's get them to work together!Topics covered on Strategy or Subconscious:Which common subconscious patterns might be disguising themselves as strategy problems?How can you tell if you're operating from "self" or being led by a protective "part"?What questions should you ask yourself when you feel stuck or uncertain in your business?Why do most business challenges involve both strategy and subconscious work?How can you create subconscious safety around visibility, rejection, and success?How can you lead your business from clarity rather than conditioning?Connect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram  | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at https://rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/how-do-you-know-if-the-missing-piece-is-strategy-or-subconscious

Did you know that self-consistency is the hidden reason why you're working your arse off without seeing the results you want? I'm going deep today, honey pie – way deeper than just talking about being consistent with your content or your to-do list.We're diving into why your subconscious fights to keep you exactly where you are, even when you desperately want more. Your brain would literally rather be RIGHT about who it thinks you are than SUCCESSFUL! That's why you can have the perfect strategy, show up consistently, create killer offers – and still not get the results that match your effort. It's not because you're doing anything wrong. It's because your subconscious identity doesn't match your goals.Join me as I show you how to spot where your self-concept is holding you back and give you the exact steps to rewire your identity from the inside bloody out. You'll learn to make your next-level self feel SAFE to your nervous system, so your subconscious stops sabotaging your success. This is the missing piece to becoming the CEO who leads powerfully, scales with certainty, and sells effortlessly.Topics covered on Self-Consistency:What is self-consistency, and why is it blocking your business success?How might you be unconsciously sabotaging opportunities that do not fit your current identity?Why do you struggle to scale even when you are doing all the "right" actions?Why is making your new identity feel "safe" crucial for your subconscious acceptance?What steps can you take to rewire your identity and create self-consistency with success?How can you recognise when your self-consistency is pulling you back to old patterns?Connect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram  | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at https://rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/self-consistency

Shedding your old identity might sometimes feel like absolute death rather than the euphoric buzz everyone promises. In today's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the uncomfortable reality of identity shifts that nobody talks about.I call it "the void" – that disorienting space between who you were and who you're becoming. Your old self operated on survival, panic, and hustle, so when you finally create safety, your nervous system freaks out! That calm, focused energy can actually feel boring compared to the adrenaline you're used to. This isn't regression – it's recalibration. Join me as I walk you through why your subconscious tries to pull you back to familiar chaos and give you my four favourite subconscious practices to anchor into your next-level identity when the old version whispers "come back."Your higher self is closer than you think – you just need to navigate the void first, and I'm here to guide you through it!Topics covered on Shedding Your Old Identity:Why does shedding your old identity and stepping into your higher self feel like death instead of the expected euphoria?What exactly is "the void" and why does it make so many people quit the subconscious work right before their big breakthrough?How does your nervous system react when you are shedding your old identity?Why might your new next-level identity feel strangely boring after you've done the subconscious work?What subconscious techniques can you use to anchor your new identity when old patterns try pulling you back?Connect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram  | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at https://rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/shedding-your-old-identity

Are you caught in the exhausting loop of overthinking every single business decision? Let's talk about how to stop overthinking once and for all!Overthinking in business stems from deeper subconscious patterns that keep you stuck, not from lack of knowledge or ability. I see this pattern repeatedly with my clients—they know what they want to do, but their brain won't stop spinning the same thoughts over and over again. This protective mechanism is actually trying to keep you safe, but it's costing you clarity, momentum, and growth.So in today's episode, I dive into why we overthink, what's happening in your nervous system during these spirals, and, most importantly, how to break free from this pattern. You'll learn how to shift from mental noise to embodied decision-making, rebuild self-trust, and create the safety your body needs to move forward. I'll show you how to recognise when you're in an overthinking spiral and give you tools to move from paralysis to purposeful action—not because everything's perfectly mapped out, but because you're rooted in yourself.Topics covered on How to Stop Overthinking:Why does your brain create overthinking loops, and what's the hidden reason behind this protection strategy?How does your nervous system physically respond when you're stuck in decision paralysis?Identify the secondary gains of your overthinking loop.What practical steps can you take today to stop overthinking?How can you recognise when your spiral is happening and pull yourself back into conscious awareness?What does the regulation of your nervous system have to do with making better business decisions?Connect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram  | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at https://rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/how-to-stop-overthinking-start-taking-action-instead
