In this episode of "Starting a Business Simplified," Nova Beltran and Suzy Wraines discuss the topic of high functioning anxiety and depression. Suzy highlights the importance of having a coach or mentor when starting a business or going through personal transitions, emphasizing the need to take care of oneself before helping others. The focus of the episode is on high functioning anxiety and depression, specifically targeting individuals who may be functioning well in their daily lives and may not realize they have underlying mental health issues.

Nova, drawing from her experience as both a coach and therapist, explains that high functioning anxiety and depression can be easily hidden or difficult to detect. It may not appear as severe as major depressive disorder or panic attacks, but it can still have a damaging impact on a person's life if left unchecked. She notes that individuals with high functioning anxiety and depression often excel in their achievements, but their over-functioning and constant pushing can contribute to their anxiety and depression.

The conversation delves into the symptoms and indicators of high functioning anxiety and depression. For depression, Nova mentions feelings of going through the motions of life, difficulty concentrating, lack of joy in activities, flat affect, sadness, loneliness, anger, irritability, disconnection, fatigue, low energy, hopelessness, low self-esteem, negative self-talk, and engaging in numbing activities. Despite experiencing these internal struggles, individuals with high functioning anxiety and depression may appear present and engaged in their daily tasks.

Suzy relates to the discussion, sharing her own experience of high functioning anxiety and depression while dealing with PTSD from her deployment in Iraq. She admits to normalizing her struggles for nearly 10 years and pushing through without seeking help, ultimately experiencing exhaustion and needing time to decompress on her days off.

The episode serves as an important reminder to listeners that even when they are seemingly functioning well, it is crucial to be aware of their mental health and seek support if needed. It emphasizes the significance of recognizing and addressing high functioning anxiety and depression to prevent them from escalating to more severe levels.

Welcome back to "Starting a Business Simplified" with your host, Suzy Wraines. In this episode, Suzy delves into the topic of limiting beliefs, which frequently hinder new business owners from progressing. She explains that limiting beliefs can affect various aspects of life, relationships, and business without one even realizing it.

Suzy distinguishes between conscious and unconscious beliefs. Conscious beliefs are those we are aware of, constantly thinking about, and understand their significance. On the other hand, unconscious beliefs can be triggered by our nervous system and serve as a protective mechanism. These unconscious limiting beliefs might have originated from past experiences or ongoing stressors that we haven't resolved or let go of.

To illustrate the power of limiting beliefs, Suzy shares a personal example. As a business owner, Suzy recognizes the importance of speaking up to promote her services and connect with potential clients. However, she discovered an unconscious belief that speaking up would lead to rejection or disapproval. Subconsciously, she had developed a self-protective mechanism to avoid situations where her ideas might be rejected or disliked, causing her to hold back and not express herself fully.

While this might seem contradictory since Suzy hosts a podcast where she talks all the time, she explains that she has been working through her limiting beliefs with the help of a coach. Suzy emphasizes the significance of having an external coach or support system to navigate through personal, health, or business-related limiting beliefs. They provide valuable reflections and insights that facilitate growth, healing, and transformation.

As part of her own development and certification program, Suzy now offers others the opportunity to work through their limiting beliefs, particularly regarding their businesses. She highlights a process called transpersonal energy healing, which she has personally experienced. This technique helps individuals tap into the original root cause of their limiting beliefs, whether from a single event or multiple stressors over time.

Suzy's coaching journey allowed her to uncover the childhood circumstances that initially led her to suppress her voice. Throughout her life, subsequent experiences further reinforced this belief. By addressing the root cause and using transpersonal energy healing, Suzy was able to work through her limiting belief and gradually overcome her fear of speaking up.

In future episodes, Suzy promises to share more insights from her personal growth journey and the positive impact that working through limiting beliefs can have on one's business and personal life. She encourages her audience to consider seeking external support in their own journeys and emphasizes the transformative power of letting go of limiting beliefs.

In this episode of my Starting a Business Simplified podcast, I want to share some personal realizations and insights I've had recently. One of the biggest realizations is the significance of self-love. I've started practicing self-reflection by journaling and setting aside quiet time just for myself.

During these moments, I ask my essential self, "What do you need?" and I listen attentively to the voice within me. It consistently responds with a powerful message: "Love me." I strongly believe that our essential selves are spiritual beings filled with love, and when we truly experience this love, it brings a positive perspective to every aspect of life. By viewing everything through the lens of love, frustrations and annoyances start to fade away, leaving space for excitement and joy in my business and daily experiences.

Another realization that has had a significant impact on me is the practice of gratitude. I express gratitude for even the simplest things, like witnessing a beautiful sunrise, having a comfortable place to sleep, or being able to record episodes for my podcast. Currently, as I look out my window, I am in awe of the beauty of springtime—nature's renewal with green leaves and birds chirping. It has become a daily ritual for me to express gratitude both when I wake up and before I fall asleep. This practice helps me recognize and appreciate all the wonderful aspects of my life.

I also acknowledge that life is a rollercoaster ride with its ups and downs. Experiencing a range of emotions, both positive and negative, is a natural part of growth and self-awareness. During low points, I've developed techniques to regulate my emotions. I delve inward, asking my essential self why I feel bothered or low, and I seek answers from within, listening to my inner wisdom. I want to encourage my listeners to take moments of quiet reflection amidst the busyness of life. We often forget that we possess the answers and guidance we need without always relying on external sources.

Moreover, I discuss the fascinating connection between our body's energy and our emotions. I highlight how excitement and fear produce similar physiological responses, such as a quickened heartbeat and faster breathing. Understanding the ebb and flow of energy within ourselves allows for a deeper awareness of our emotional states. I strongly advise listeners to turn off external distractions and simply sit in silence for a few minutes. This act of reconnecting with our inner selves can be truly transformative.

To sum up, this episode emphasizes the significance of self-love, gratitude, and self-reflection. By embracing love, looking at the world through a loving lens, and expressing gratitude for the blessings in our lives, we can find joy and fulfillment in our businesses and daily experiences. I urge my listeners to find moments of stillness and self-awareness, allowing them to tap into their inner wisdom and effectively regulate their emotions.
