When Success Isn't the Problem: The Hidden Patterns That Keep You Stuck with Ifat Gross Ariav

What if the experience that threatened the future you had built became the beginning of an entirely different one?In this episode of Something New Is Possible, I sit down with Tamar Wiener, a former chemist turned pastry chef and the founder of Beatriz Bakery. Tamar shares how a quarter-life crisis led her away from pharmaceuticals, why she accepted a dishwashing job after working as a salaried chemist, and how the willingness to begin again eventually carried her into fine dining and pastry.Then, a severe injury to her dominant hand changed everything. After delayed care, reconstructive surgery, and months of painful rehabilitation, Tamar did not know whether she would regain full use of her hand. Making an imperfect birthday cake for a friend became part of her physical recovery and a source of the joy, momentum, and purpose she desperately needed.We talk about the strength required to ask for help, the difference between your own voice and the expectations surrounding you, and how naming the inner critic can stop doubt from controlling your choices. Tamar also offers a practical way to create motivation on the days when simply getting out of bed feels like an accomplishment.CONTACT TAMAREMAIL: [email protected]: http://www.BeatrizBakery.comLINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamarwienerINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/beatrizbakery.ilFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/BeatrizBakeryTLVLEARN MORE ABOUT TAMARTamar Wiener is a former chemist turned pastry chef with more than a decade of experience in the culinary industry.

What if getting unstuck does not require quitting your job, moving across the world, or having a dramatic personal crisis?In this episode of Something New Is Possible, I sit down with Ariel Yerushalmi, a civil engineer turned videographer, storyteller, and community builder. Ariel shares how a planned move from Toronto to Israel was interrupted by October 7, how six months of travel with a small drone opened an unexpected path into storytelling, and why she eventually chose a life that felt less predictable but more aligned.We talk about clearing space in the mind and body, using creativity to restore movement, and recognizing that small actions can create meaningful change. Ariel also reflects on building a new life in Israel, shifting from scarcity toward abundance, and learning not to punish herself for the very human experience of feeling stuck.Most importantly, this conversation is a reminder that intuition is not a one-time instruction. You are allowed to reevaluate. You are allowed to change direction. And you are allowed to change your mind when the life you once wanted no longer feels right.CONTACT ARIELEMAIL: [email protected]: https://www.cloudnineviews.com/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/cloudnineviews_LEARN MORE ABOUT ARIELAriel Yerushalmi is the founder of Cloud Nine Views and a civil engineer turned videographer, storyteller, and community builder.

What if your struggle with willpower is not evidence that you are weak, lazy, or undisciplined?In this solo episode of Something New Is Possible, I look at mental strength from a different angle. We are often taught that strength means pushing harder, sacrificing more, and refusing to stop. But you can be highly disciplined in one part of your life and still find yourself procrastinating, freezing, or sabotaging a goal that matters deeply to you.I explore what may be happening when your conscious intentions and deeper emotional patterns are pulling in different directions. I also share how I use muscle testing and Neuro Emotional Coaching® to identify misalignment, along with a simple practice for noticing what your body may be communicating through your breath, your jaw, your posture, and your emotions.Real mental strength may be less about forcing yourself through every obstacle and more about becoming flexible enough to face your triggers without allowing them to run your life. If you have ever asked, “Why can I be so strong everywhere else, but not here?” this episode offers a more compassionate and useful place to begin.SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL ⟹ https://www.youtube.com/user/bschwarck/featured?sub_confirmation=1SCHEDULE A FREE 30-MINUTE CONSULTATION WITH BARBARA ⟹ https://calendly.com/barbara-2/explorationSOCIAL LINKSINSTAGRAM ⟹ https://www.instagram.com/clearintentionsinternational/FACEBOOK ⟹ https://www.facebook.com/ClearIntentionsInternationalLINKEDIN ⟹ https://www.linkedin.com/company/clear-intentions-internationalBUSINESS CONTACT ⟹ [email protected] channel is for information and educational purposes only and should not be used in place of therapy.

What if the life you want does not begin with one enormous leap, but with one small choice that brings you closer to yourself?In this episode of Something New Is Possible, I sit down with Zahara Holzer, founder of The Alignment Movement, to talk about her journey through depression, an abusive relationship, growing up orthodox, divorce, motherhood, business, and the gradual return to a life that felt true. Zahara shares how therapy, support, energy work, and a willingness to keep taking the next available step helped her reconnect with the gifts she had stopped trusting.We talk about what to do when you feel completely stuck, why a five-minute practice can begin moving stagnant energy, and how beliefs about money, worthiness, and visibility can quietly keep us from receiving what we already know we want. Zahara also reflects on the breakthroughs she experienced while working with me and the way that inner work helped her business begin to move.This is an honest conversation about choice, courage, and alignment, the moment when your inner truth and your outer life begin to match. If you have been waiting to have the whole path figured out before you begin, this episode is an invitation to take the next brave step.CONTACT ZAHARAWEBSITE: https://zaharaholzer.com/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/zaharaholzer/LEARN MORE ABOUT ZAHARAZahara Holzer is the founder of The Alignment Movement, where she helps women get closer to their truth, take the next brave step, and move toward the life that has been calling them.

Have you ever known exactly what you wanted, yet felt something inside you pulling in the opposite direction?In this solo episode of Something New Is Possible, I take a deeper look at muscle testing and why it has been such an important part of my personal journey and my work. I explain how I use it to listen beneath the conscious mind, explore inner alignment, and identify the emotional or subconscious resistance that may be influencing our choices.I also share how I moved from skepticism to curiosity after experiencing muscle testing for myself, how that journey eventually led me to develop Neuro Emotional Coaching®, and why discovering an inner block is not something to fear. Once we have information, we have something we can work with.If you are curious about muscle testing, intuition, subconscious patterns, or what it means to become more congruent with the life you want to create, this episode is an invitation to listen from the inside out.SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL ⟹ https://www.youtube.com/user/bschwarck/featured?sub_confirmation=1CURIOUS WHAT YOUR OWN BODY WOULD SAY ABOUT A GOAL YOU’VE BEEN STUCK ON?

What if taking care of your body could become an act of reconnection rather than another obligation on your list?In this episode of Something New Is Possible, I speak with Jana Fahle, founder of Lebensraum EOS in Bielefeld, Germany, about helping women reconnect with themselves through movement, nutrition, mindset, and community.We discuss why beginning with one manageable step is often more effective than creating another demanding plan, how movement can become more enjoyable when it includes conversation and connection, and why the body often tells us when it is time to make a change.Toward the end of our conversation, we explore the relationship between the body and the soul, the importance of using our senses to return to the present moment, and the courage it takes to listen to the voice within us, even when following it means stepping outside our comfort zone.If you have been feeling disconnected from your body, overwhelmed by the thought of starting again, or uncertain about taking your next step, this conversation is a reminder that change can begin gently.CONTACT JANAWEBSITE: http://www.lebensraum-eos.deINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/lebensraum.eos/LEARN MORE ABOUT JANAJana Fahle is the founder of Lebensraum EOS, a fitness center in Bielefeld where movement becomes a way for people to reconnect with themselves.

We often assume that the biggest obstacles in our lives are external. But what if the patterns keeping you stuck are coming from somewhere much deeper?In this episode of Something New Is Possible, I sit down with managerial therapist Ifat Gross Ariav to explore how our interpretations, unconscious beliefs, and emotional patterns quietly shape our relationships, careers, leadership, and sense of self.Together we discuss why successful people often struggle internally, how old stories continue to influence present-day decisions, and what becomes possible when we begin questioning the beliefs we've always accepted as true.If you've ever wondered why the same challenges keep showing up in different forms, this conversation is for you.CONTACT IFATWEBSITE: https://www.ifatgrossariav.com/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ifat-grossariav/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/ifatgrossariav/LEARN MORE ABOUT IFATIfat Gross Ariav is a managerial therapist who works with CEOs and fast-growing organizations on what sits underneath the org chart: trust, clarity, and the management operating system, especially as AI reshapes leadership.

Have you ever committed to a goal, created a plan, and started making progress, only to find yourself slipping back into the same old behaviors?We tend to overestimate the power of willpower and underestimate the emotional and unconscious responses influencing our choices. Your conscious mind may know exactly where you want to go while another part of you is pulling in a different direction.In this solo episode of Something New Is Possible, I explore how kinesiology, muscle testing, and Neuro Emotional Coaching® can help reveal where that conflict may be occurring. I explain how I use the body’s responses to identify resistance, understand what it may be connected to, and help clients create greater alignment with the changes they want to make.Tune in to learn why willpower can only take us so far, what your body may be communicating about your goals, and how addressing the deeper pattern can make forward movement easier.SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL ⟹ ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/bschwarck/featured?sub_confirmation=1⁠⁠SCHEDULE A FREE 30-MINUTE CONSULTATION WITH BARBARA ⟹ ⁠⁠https://calendly.com/barbara-2/exploration⁠⁠SOCIAL LINKS INSTAGRAM ⟹ ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/clearintentionsinternational/⁠⁠FACEBOOK ⟹ ⁠https://www.facebook.com/ClearIntentionsInternational⁠⁠LINKEDIN ⟹ ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/clear-intentions-international⁠⁠BUSINESS CONTACT ⟹ [email protected] DISCLAIMERThis channel is for information and educational purposes only and should not be used in place of therapy.

Can you love your work and love your children without constantly feeling like one has to come at the expense of the other?In this week’s podcast, I’m speaking with Rebecca Olson, executive life coach, speaker, and host of the Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms podcast, about the identity shift many women experience when they become mothers.We talk about the guilt that can come with loving your career, the pressure to be constantly available to your children, and the grief many women feel when motherhood changes their freedom, priorities, and sense of self.This is a grounded conversation about motherhood, ambition, identity, and what it means to create a life that makes room for both family and meaningful work.

Why do some changes feel so difficult, even when we know exactly what we need to do?Many of us have read the books, listened to the podcasts, and made the plans. We understand what needs to happen, yet we find ourselves repeating the same patterns, avoiding the same conversations, or getting stuck in the same place.In this solo episode, I talk about why information alone is often not enough to create lasting change. I share how muscle testing and Neuro Emotional Coaching help uncover the deeper beliefs, emotional patterns, and subconscious responses that may be influencing our choices without us even realizing it.We explore why the mind and body are not always in agreement, why self-acceptance is such an important part of growth, and what can happen when we stop asking, “What’s wrong with me?” and start becoming curious about what is happening beneath the surface.Whether you’re trying to improve your health, grow your business, strengthen a relationship, or move beyond a pattern you’ve struggled with for years, this episode offers a different way of understanding change.Because sometimes the obstacle isn’t a lack of knowledge. Sometimes there is something deeper asking to be understood.SIGN UP FOR MY NEW FREE 5-DAY VIDEO SERIES TO BUILD YOUR CONFIDENCE ⟹ ⁠https://mailchi.mp/c162b47db7b5/confidence⁠SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL ⟹ ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/bschwarck/featured?sub_confirmation=1⁠⁠SCHEDULE A FREE 30-MINUTE CONSULTATION WITH BARBARA ⟹ ⁠⁠https://calendly.com/barbara-2/exploration⁠⁠SOCIAL LINKS INSTAGRAM ⟹ https://www.instagram.com/clearintentionsinternational/⁠⁠FACEBOOK ⟹ ⁠https://www.facebook.com/ClearIntentionsInternational⁠⁠LINKEDIN ⟹ ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/clear-intentions-international⁠⁠BUSINESS CONTACT ⟹ [email protected] DISCLAIMERThis channel is for information and educational purposes only and should not be used in place of therapy.
