Soul & Success

In this episode, Hina delves into the pervasive issue of the inner voice that narrates our thoughts and actions. She explores how this inner dialogue can often be critical and self-doubting, but emphasises that it doesn't have to be our enemy. Hina introduces listeners to the concept of the Reticular Activating System (RAS) and how it influences our perceptions and beliefs. KEY TAKEAWAYS Your inner voice is a mix of programming, protection, and perception. It can be supportive or critical, but it is not your enemy. Recognising its role is the first step in managing it. To change your inner dialogue, you must first become aware of it. Catch yourself in the act of negative self-talk and notice the patterns that emerge during challenging situations. When your inner voice expresses doubt or negativity, challenge those thoughts by reframing them into more positive and supportive statements. This helps rewrite the narrative you tell yourself. By consistently replacing negative statements with constructive ones, you can strengthen new neural pathways in your brain, leading to a more empowering mindset over time. Recognise that fear often arises when you are about to step out of your comfort zone. Instead of letting fear paralyse you, reframe it as a sign of growth and use it as motivation to move forward. BEST MOMENTS "Your inner voice isn't your enemy. It's just a mixture of programming, protection, and perception." "You can actually train your inner voice to work for you instead of against you. And it starts with awareness." "Every time you replace a negative inner statement with a kinder, more constructive one, you strengthen your new neural pathway." "You are not your thoughts. You are the awareness behind them. Thoughts are suggestions, not orders." "When your inner world changes, your outer world follows."

This episode explores the concept of Quantum Leaping, blending science, energy, and practical steps to align your current self with your desired future. Hina demystifies the idea, explaining that every version of yourself already exists as a potential wave in the Quantum Field. True quantum leaping isn't mystical; it's about shifting your internal programming, your focus, imagination, subconscious beliefs, and nervous system to match the frequency of the future you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Quantum Leaping is About Alignment: The core of quantum leaping is not mystically jumping to a different life, but aligning your mind, body, and energy with a version of yourself that already exists as a possibility in the quantum field. The Quantum Field Holds All Possibilities: Every version of you, including the one with the relationships, wealth, and happiness you desire, already exists as a wave of possibility, and your focus acts as the spotlight that selects which part of the stage lights up. The Subconscious and Nervous System Are Key Filters: The subconscious mind runs 95% of your daily patterns and determines what feels safe, while the nervous system is your internal safety alarm. If your "leap" feels too big, they will resist, keeping you in the familiar. Focus and Imagination are Practical Tools: Imagination is not just daydreaming; when you visualize vividly with feeling, your brain and the quantum field receive a clear signal. This consistent focus sends the coordinates to your future destination. Bridging the Gap for Safety and Momentum: Instead of trying to leap from A to Z overnight, focus on a believable next step (a few months ahead). This builds the necessary capacity and safety within your nervous system to hold the expanded version of yourself. BEST MOMENTS "At its heart, it's about something very real: aligning your mind, your body, and your energy with a version of yourself that already exists as a possibility." "Your focus isn't just what you think about once; it's what you keep returning to." "Your subconscious is like the operating system, running quietly in the background. It holds 95% of your daily patterns, beliefs, and behaviors." "If deep down your subconscious holds beliefs like 'It's not for people like me,' it will gently steer you away from opportunities." "Quantum leaping doesn't happen because you push harder. It happens because you tune in more clearly."

In this episode, Hina dives deep into the art and science of setting goals that you can actually stick to. Hina shares six powerful, soul-aligned steps designed to activate your brain and energy, ensuring your goals move beyond a forgotten notebook entry and become truly motivating. You'll discover why most goals fail, and learn about the famous Harvard study that revealed the immense power of writing goals down.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Goals Fail Due to Lack of Emotional Connection: Most people fail to achieve goals not because they are unmotivated, but because the goals never connect to a deeper, emotional "why" or sense of purpose. The Power of Writing Goals Down: The famous Harvard study showed that the 3% of MBA graduates who wrote down their clear goals earned ten times more than the rest combined, highlighting the programming effect writing has on the brain. Activate Your Brain with Neuroscience: Writing goals by hand activates the Reticular Activating System (RAS)—your brain's internal filter—to look for opportunities, and combining it with visualization engages both logical and creative brain hemispheres. Set Clear, Present-Tense Goals: Vague goals confuse the brain; goals should be crystal clear (e.g., "I will walk three times a week" instead of "be healthy") and written in the present tense (e.g., "I am running a thriving business") to signal to your subconscious that the goal is already real. Aligning Energy for Receiving: After writing and visualizing, practicing a calm belief (releasing and receiving) is crucial, as over-forcing or striving signals fear, while calm belief signals readiness, putting you into a state of flow to attract opportunities. BEST MOMENTS "Most people fail, not because they're lazy or unmotivated, but because their goals never connect to something deeper, to their why, their emotional energy, their sense of purpose." "Writing a goal down isn't just symbolic. It programs your brain to look for opportunities." "Your brain is like a GPS without a destination. It idles in neutral." "Your subconscious treats present-tense statements as already real, which rewires belief." "The pen isn't just for planning. It's a wand for creation."

This special episode marks the exciting evolution of the "Feel Fabulous Podcast" into Soul and Success. Your host re-launches the show with a deeper purpose: creating a space where high-achievers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and everyday dreamers can find fulfillment. This episode defines the new mission, emphasizing that true success isn't just about strategy and productivity tips, but about aligning your inner world (soul) with your outer world (success). KEY TAKEAWAYS The Merging of Soul and Success: The podcast re-launch is centered on the principle that success without soul feels empty, and soul without success leaves you feeling unseen; true fulfillment lies in where the two meet. Healing is the Foundation for Success: Unresolved emotional wounds (from stress, burnout, or loss) quietly hold you back and manifest as procrastination or self-sabotage; healing is therefore the foundation, not a separate task, for sustainable success. Success is Personal and Varied: Success looks different for everyone, ranging from growing a company to achieving seven-figure revenue, to simply being able to breathe deeply again after anxiety, or leaving a toxic relationship. Aligning Your Inner and Outer Worlds: The real magic happens when people align who they are on the inside with what they create on the outside, stepping into their authentic self to create flow. Mindset and Energy Mastery are Essential: The show will focus on mindset mastery, shifting from self-doubt to unshakable confidence, and energy alignment, using practical tools to raise and protect your vibration. BEST MOMENTS "Success without soul feels empty, and soul without success can leave you feeling unseen in the world." "Healing is not separate from success. It's the foundation of it." "When you release old pain, set clear energetic boundaries, and step into your authentic self, everything else starts to click in place." "One of the biggest myths about success is that you can just push through pain and keep going." "This is about your version of success, whether that's measured in revenue, relationships, peace of mind, or personal growth."

In this essential episode, Hinai tackles the universal feeling of overwhelm, explaining that it is not a sign of weakness, but a signal from your body's alarm system that "too much is happening, too fast". She breaks down the neuroscience behind overwhelm, revealing how the amygdala lights up and floods your body with stress hormones, making clear thinking impossible.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Overwhelm is a Nervous System Response: Overwhelm is the body's alarm system signalling "too much is happening, too fast" and causes the brain's amygdala to light up, flooding the body with cortisol and adrenaline. Pause and Ground to Reset: Before trying to fix anything, the first step is to pause and use techniques like slow breathing, humming, or placing a hand on your heart to stimulate the vagus nerve, which signals safety to your nervous system. Naming Your Emotions Calms the Brain: Naming the overwhelming emotion (e.g., "I feel overwhelmed right now") actually calms the brain's prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for logic and decision-making. Simplify with the Rule of Three: The brain struggles with multitasking, leading to decision fatigue. Simplify by asking: "What are the three things that will genuinely make me feel lighter if I complete them today?". Energetic Boundaries Protect Your Power: Overwhelm often stems from saying "yes" when you want to say "no," which puts your body in a mild stress state. Protecting your energy with clear boundaries is essential, as your "peace is worth protecting".  BEST MOMENTS "Overwhelm or anxiety is one of the most common things I see in coaching sessions. And what's fascinating is, it's not just all in your head." "The amygdala, the part of your brain that scans for threats, it kind of lights up with a warning siren." "That's why you're overwhelmed: You can't think clearly, you just forget simple things, and you feel a little bit paralyzed." "Your body needs to reset. It needs to feel safe again before your mind can think straight." "Saying 'yes' when you want to say 'no' activates that same fight or flight response."
