216: Do The Work with Dr. Nicole LePera

This is The Intentional Advantage podcast with your host, Tanya Dalton,
entrepreneur, bestselling author, nationally recognized productivity expert and mom
of two. In this season, Tanya is continuing to open up more conscious conversations
to help you awaken to who you are and become the best version of yourself.
Welcome to Season 17: Awakening. Are you ready? Here’s your host, Tanya Dalton.
Hello, hello, everyone. Welcome to The Intentional Advantage. I’m your host, Tanya
Dalton. This is Episode 216. We are deep in the middle of our season on awakening,
and we have really been diving into a lot of concepts, a lot of how our mindset really
works and how that drives us forward. And so when I was sitting down and I was
thinking about who would be amazing guests for the season at the very top of my
list was Dr. Nicole LePera.
Now, if you’re not familiar with Dr. Nicole LePera, let me just give you a little
background on her. She was trained in clinical psychology at Cornell University and
at the New School for Social Research. And she also studied at the Philadelphia
School of Psychoanalysis. Now as a clinical psychologist in private practice, she often
found herself really frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy, and
she wanted more for her patients. And quite frankly, she wanted more for herself.
So she began a journey to develop a United philosophy of mental, physical, and
spiritual health that equips people with the tools necessary to heal themselves. And
that’s a big thing with her is you have the ability to heal yourself. She’s actually the
creator of the self-healers movement, where people from around the world are
joining together in community to take healing into their own hands.
You can imagine why I thought, Oh, Dr. Nicole will be amazing on this show. And
actually, her first book, How To Do The Work, has just been released, which is an
incredible read, but I don’t want to give too much away. Let’s go ahead and dive into
today’s interview.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Yes!
[Tanya:] Well, now I want to dive right in because your book was so fascinating and
so interesting. You call yourself a holistic psychologist and you say that your clients
have the power to heal themselves. In fact, you say we are our own best healers. I

love that. Can you tell us a little bit more about your journey as a holistic
psychologist?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Absolutely. So as long as I can remember–I’m someone who is
intimately familiar with the psychological field, not only as a professional, but on the
personal side of things; I was the scared little girl, afraid of every thumping the night
really was the robber that was going to come in and harm my family. Probably when
I was in my twenties anxiety, really for me hit its peak.
By that time, I was well on my way to become the psychologist I think that intuitively
was my path in life; really motivated to help people understand themselves a bit
better. However, what I found several years into having a private practice living in
Philly, seeing at that point clients week after week, I began to feel really, really
disempowered, really frustrated.
Not only was I finding that I was struggling to help my clients, I was struggling to
help myself. And for me, it took what I now understand as my dark night of the soul,
really hitting a bottom of hopelessness of wondering, you know, if this was really
what it, if you will, right, was all about? And through that journey, I found my path to
healing.
And the way I did so was, was really working holistically. And what I mean when I say
holistically is really honoring, you know, that we are born into a body and we have a
very complicated emotional system and center as humans. And I’m of the belief that
there’s something else, that kind of a spiritual soul, that indescribable otherness, that
uniqueness about each of us.
So really understanding that all of those parts of self operate and interact together
was really what was integral in my own journey of healing and healing my own
lifetime anxiety. And then of course I birthed the idea of sharing these tools. Because
for me, a lot of this information, I hadn’t been taught. I hadn’t been taught in school
or else I would have been utilizing it with my sessions with my clients. So that’s when
I birthed the Holistic Psychologist Instagram account, with no idea of what the world
would do with what I had to say.
[Tanya:] Brave, I’d say.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] It honestly was. And when I looked at it as an opportunity, as an
outlet, I was scared. You say brave, and I think a lot of times we think of fear. And
there was a lot of hesitancy about what would this be like to begin to speak this new
truth to the world?

2 of 13

[Tanya:] Yeah. Well, this is the thing is being brave doesn’t necessarily mean that you
don’t have any fear whatsoever. It’s stepping past it, stepping through it. I love your
definition of holistic that it’s this really this journey of the self and how we’re we are
so multifaceted. I think that’s one of the things that’s really unique with what you
talk about is truly looking at all these different aspects. It’s different than mainstream
psychology, right? Wouldn’t you say? I mean, it is this like–go ahead.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Yeah. I’d say in some ways definitely different. The biggest way is
that I believe mainstream tries to fit us into, you know, this big catch-all, one
universal. And if we’re honest, I think we all like this idea of steps 1-5, right? How do I
get better?
[Tanya:] Check this box, then check this box. Right? It’s so nice!
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Yeah. I love checking. I’m a Virgo. So anyone out there resonates
with that personality type, if you will; I love checking boxes. But what I mean when I
say that is I think traditionally we do one of two things. We do look outside of
ourselves, right? To this idea, this system, this practice, or this person who has the
answers. And then we do try to walk their exact journey. So back to a question, I
heard you wrapped up in the first one, which is what is idea of being self-healing
then, or a self healer?
And again, that wraps into my idea or my belief that we know ourselves and we have
for a very long time been outsourcing. And that’s one of the reasons why we feel so
disempowered, because we’ve been looking to the practitioner, to the person that
has the answers. We’ve been maybe trying very well intentionally to apply those
answers to our life. And then when they don’t create change, unfortunately, a lot of
us tend to feel like it’s something wrong within us. Like we’re the broken one and
carry a lot of shame around that.
[Tanya:] Well, we don’t fit in these neat little boxes, right? We don’t fit these neat little
titles. And so then we have the checklist of, Oh, I do this and I do that. And that feels
so simple. This work is, it’s messy. You go in, you ask the questions and then you ask
another question. Then you go a little deeper and ask another question. It’s not like,
Oh, this is so fun. It’s work, which is why you called the book, Do The Work because
you have to do that work, right?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] You have to do that work and change comes. And this was
another painful truth that I’ve lived on my own journey each and every day. So when
I talk, too, about the limitations of the old model, as I call it, but even this idea of
going to a place for a limited time, say one hour a week; if we’re talking about
therapy, I’ve come to understand why that’s so limited. There are so many other
hours of our week. And what I’ve come to understand is happening for many of us.
3 of 13

That one hour, we can be incredibly insightful. We can be actually operating from a
different part of our mind, our conscious space, where we can learn from our past.
We can see the things very clearly that don’t work. Many of us even come up with a
great plan of action to break those habits, to do something different next time. I’ve
had incredibly insightful moments with myself and with my clients.
What I realized then week after week is in those hours outside of that very conscious
moment, most of us are shifting back into what I call our autopilot and we’re reading
habits and patterns that many of us have carried with us from childhood. And that’s
why we are unable to change, or we’re stuck as a word I heard. I can’t tell you, Tanya,
how many times I heard that word in my practice: stuck. I’m stuck.
[Tanya:] Yes. I hear that coaching all the time, I’m stuck. There’s nothing I can do. Or
they feel like they’re just–that pattern is just defining them over and over again. And
you’re right. There’s 168 hours in a week. Going for one hour, thinking that one hour
is going to make a difference. It really is continually thinking and shifting. So, you
know, it seems like a lot of what you say, it comes down to your mindset. Do you
agree with that?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] It comes down, I would believe, to an interaction between our
mind and our body, because what I’ve come to find is a lot of us remain stuck. Many
of us might’ve learned mindset tools, right? Learn the power of our thoughts. Maybe
we’ve even attempted mantra work or affirmation work. This idea that if we change
our thoughts, we can change how we show up in the world.
Yes, absolutely. In my book, I talk a whole chapter about the importance of our
thoughts are the power of belief. However, the reason why I say it’s an interaction,
we’re all living in a body and the body that many of us are living, based on, again, our
past experiences and how we’ve adapted to them, is often a state of dysregulation
and what we now know. And again, this is a limitation, or so I believe, of the old
model. We now know that we don’t live in silos where our body is separate and we,
you know, go to the body doctor to tinker and then the mind doctor.
We now I think, believe something different. We now know that our mind is housed
in our body. They’re in communication. And so how the size is those of us that have
those very real levels of physiological dysregulation, a nervous system that is stuck in
a different state of activation, no amount of mindset work. In my opinion, can help
create change. We need to be harnessing the healing power of the body. Again, I
believe that all of our bodies can heal to an extent, right?
So it’s in that interaction. Again, going back to what I mean when I say holistic; I tried
for a very long time. I was a doctor of the mind. I tried to impart tools for everyone
around me to change their minds and get better. And what I realized is they weren’t
4 of 13

getting better because we weren’t creating the change in our bodies that our body
needed.
[Tanya:] We’re so much more than this tiny little box, right? We’re so much more.
And I love that idea. And that concept of the mind-body connection you talk about.
You give an example of imagining a lemon and then slicing into the lemon, and then
imagining how it smells to really bring home that idea, that mind-body connection.
But I think a lot of times Western medicine wants to pretend like these are separate
and this is, you know, woo-woo kind of stuff; that it’s Oh, holistic stuff. It gets labeled
maybe new age-y or woo-woo. And it’s not. I think that you share a really fascinating
study that really shows how strong our minds are and how they really, our mind has
a lot of power over our bodies.
You talked about this study that was on aging and about these men who were in like
a retirement facility; I would love for you to share that with my listeners because I felt
like that was such a–I had never heard that study and I love studies. I find it
fascinating when the science just totally backs up everything you’re talking about
here. So can you share that study with everybody?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Absolutely. And throughout the book, I do mention a lot of the
science behind things. I love that study as well. So I’m really happy you asked about
it; it’s in the power of belief chapter. Again, really acknowledging that the top-down
process of changing the way we think first and foremost, acknowledging how
powerful our beliefs are and how they are shaping our world. So I go into all of that in
the book. And then of course, once we understand, wow, how deeply powerful our
beliefs are and how they have been shaping our day to day experiences throughout
our lifetime. Now we can begin to create top-down change. We can work to change
some of our beliefs to then create change in our lived experiences.
So in one of the studies, I think it’s so fascinating. They had this group of older
gentlemen and the experimental group, they were all shipped out and they were to
live. I forget the amount of time, I think about a week.
[Tanya:] [It was] really short, just a week or two. It was really interesting.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Absolutely. Yeah. So they had, again, this group of men and they
separate the male and one group was experimental and one group was the controls
and the experimental group was instructed to act as if they were, what was it, 10 or
20 years younger as if they were from younger time, the whole environment they
were in, the monastery that they were staying at was decorated as if it was 20-some
years ago. And the men were instructed to act as their younger selves; to think, do,
and pretend that they were actually, you know, 20 years younger. And then the other

5 of 13

group of course, was to just spend the week and take that next step of, business as
usual.
[Tanya:] Just be yourself.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Exactly. And at the end of the study–and thank you for pointing
out the shortness of the study; so here’s one week of time where these gentlemen
were engaging as if they were their younger selves, and at the end of the study on
multiple physiological measures, they actually showed a change in their heart rate,
in their muscles, in their arthritis, getting better over that limited period of time.
So what that indicates to us, and there have been innumerable now, other studies, I
just think that one’s pretty cool; I like that we’re changing our mind. So this is the
important takeaway of that. We begin to think and even more so act differently.
What this study now is beginning to show and many others is that, that change in
our mind trickles down. So now you have changes in our body. Like I said, heart rate
measures, shifting, changing muscle musculature, changing really, really powerful
stuff.
[Tanya:] Yeah, so it really is that mind and body connection they’re woven so much
stronger together than I think we’ve ever really realized. And because, I mean like
muscle growth, the flexibility you said in the study increased. So it’s not just like, Oh,
they felt better. They just had this better attitude. It’s so much more. And this means
we don’t have to accept our faulty genes as our fate, our genes are not this fixed set
in stone thing anymore. We have the ability to influence our genes. We have the
ability to influence our lives. And I think that’s, what’s really exciting when we talk
about this idea that you’ve come up with holistic psychology and diving into the
mindset.
[Dr. Nicole Le Pera:] I think that’s the most exciting idea and that not the belief that I
had internalized both in my own lived experience and through the field, because
what we were historically taught was the opposite was that the genes that we were
gifted at birth, you know, through our lineages were inevitable, were set in stone.
There was no change you could create. And I believe that to be true. I saw evidence
of that in my family. I saw my parents and people related to me before them that
had the same, whether it was medical symptoms, issues, conditions, psychological
symptoms, issues, conditions. I saw it all in my lineage.
So that’s compelling enough evidence, or it was for me at one time to say, Oh, well,
of course, because I was gifted these genetics that result in symptoms and
conditions. So for me, my identity as a human and as a psychologist was wrapped up
around that belief. And here’s why I share this. I learned about epigenetics, which is
now turns that completely on its head and says, yeah, we have genetics at birth.

And then our daily choices, our lifestyle choices in particular, they are what, you
know, fires the gun. Our daily choices contribute to whether or not the gene is
expressed or repressed, whether we’re going to show those symptoms and those
conditions or not. And the reason why I share this for me, when I learned about that
in my dark night of the soul, wondering what the heck was actually wrong with me
at this point, that was just a sliver of light.
It was like a door slightly open because here, now for the first time ever, I had the
opportunity to even begin to consider a possibility of healing because that old
system, at least as far as I see it is not based on healing. It’s based on symptom
management. And you see that in the way we address it, right? Those of us who
have anxiety, I mean, I’ll speak from my own experience. I thought I was saddled with
a lifetime diagnosis.
I would go through periods where it was a little quote, unquote, better; manageable.
I never thought I would heal from anxiety cause I never thought you could. I had that
genetic component. So I share all of that again, to acknowledge that, even though
that little door was open, beliefs are incredibly hard to change. I for a very long time
thought, Okay, well, that’s fine. Everyone I’m reading about, all these new books now,
are changing. Great. They can do it.
But I thought, they’re not for me. I can’t do it for a million other reasons. I couldn’t
even probably explain the why’s to myself knowing that I was different in some way.
And again, I want to share this because those of us who get curious, who maybe
begin to explore shifts and changes that they can make in their day-to-day to create
change, after maybe hearing someone like me talk, don’t expect your beliefs to
change overnight. Don’t expect you just to flip the switch and say, Oh, well, if it’s
possible for them, of course it’s possible for me. For some of us, maybe that shift is
easy. For me, it wasn’t. So I just like to throw that into this conversation because
beliefs are really close to our heart, and for a lot of us, are incredibly difficult for many
different reasons to change.
[Tanya:] Yes, I totally agree. And I think that’s such a great thing to point out is that,
Yes, it is. To me too. It’s not just even a small glimmer of hope. This is that’s kicking
the door wide open that there’s this whole possibility and this opportunity to heal
yourself. And I think when we understand that and we take the moment to
acknowledge it doesn’t mean just because that door is open, you’re going to walk
right through it, right?
You got to do the work, which is why Nicole named her book this. You got to do the
work to really dive in. And it’s not necessarily easy work. So we don’t want to pretend
like it is easy work, but it’s stopping and recognizing these patterns. And you dive a
7 of 13

lot into this idea and this concept of patterns. I think that a lot of us like to use that
label of stuck, that we talked about earlier, it’s just the, it’s a giant catch-all.
It’s kind of like the junk drawer of our brain. I’m stuck. We’ll just put it in the junk
drawer, close the door, don’t look at it. Right? But what does it, what do we need to
do when it comes to really stopping and recognizing our patterns? How can we step
back from ourselves and become more conscious to really address those?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Well, you just answered that question. I can’t speak enough of
consciousness. Even the title of this podcast, right? Intentional; getting intentional
about being conscious. And what do I mean when I say conscious? Present in the
moment, right. Actually witnessing our habits and our patterns and as strong as they
are, right? This autopilot that I’m proclaiming, we all have those, however many
hours, outside right? Go out and learn how to be a conscious observer of yourself.
See those habits and patterns for many of us, they’re surprising. A lot of us aren’t
even aware of how habitual we all become as humans.
Some of us in terms of our daily habits and patterns, right? We might think we get
more sleep than we do. We might think differently than we do or connected to our
bodies in ways that we’re not. And even more. So we are incredibly habitual in our
ways of relating. So creating a new habit of consciousness is the ability to see clearly
the old. And it also creates the opportunity to begin to make new choices for the
new.
[Tanya:] Yes, and I love that. So really to that idea of being conscious is really to,
without judgment being an observer, not being the participant stuck in that hurt or
the emotion and stepping outside of it. And what I find really interesting that you
write about is how people, even those who are more self-aware and can easily
identify their patterns, they often run into trouble when it comes to that next
important step, which you say is the step we take to go from knowing to doing.
That’s a big step. Can you talk about that? What does that mean? And how does that
look for us to be able to go from knowing to doing?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] I think that’s the biggest step and the most frustrating step,
because if we go back in time, I was stuck in that abyss myself. And I was stuck in
that abyss between knowing and doing with my clients for so many. And if in my
opinion, that could be one of the most frustrating places to be all of the knowings
better if you will. And that frustration, especially as we become more and more
conscious of ourselves, of continuing to witness ourselves, repeat those habits and
patterns that aren’t serving us.
And then of course living those continued consequences of those habits and
patterns that aren’t serving us. And here’s why that bridge is so difficult to make. We
8 of 13

© The Intentional Advantage

don’t as humans actually want to change, we’ve become so comfortable in our
familiar, and this is all evolutionarily geared. Actually, I talk a lot about again, the
body and how it evolved and how close we are to in particular, right?
Our reptilian ancestors and how we have all of these structures in our brain that
actually keep us in those safe, familiar patterns. And here’s why, because in terms of
keeping us alive, that’s when I say evolutionary, that’s what I mean, our bodies like to
stay alive.
[Tanya:] Yes. Focus, main goals.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] And this is where it’s not logical. That which is predictable. That
path I’ve traveled down for some of us innumerable times before, even when it’s not
comfortable and or it has those negative consequences attached to it; according to
my subconscious, this is where all of this is operating from. It’s safe because I know
what comes next. I’ve already shown my physical body and my emotional system
that I got through it. Right.
I might be obviously living the consequences of the harm, the trauma that it caused.
But, I got through it. So in terms of that check, I can do this. I mean, seriously, jokes
aside, that’s all it cares about: if it looks at doing something unknown, that we don’t
know what comes next after that. So according to my subconscious, that could be
very risky. It could be downright dangerous. So I’m going to stay in my familiar rut.
And that’s why it’s so difficult. What happens? And this is the language at least I use
for it.
You get resistance, right? We come up with a great idea. We see the pathway to
change. We’re going to create this new habit. I go to do this new habit. And then one
of two, maybe a little combo, both of these things happen. Sometimes it lives in our
mind and I call it mental resistance, the litany of reasons why we shouldn’t do it,
which could be back to those to-do lists. Oh, I’m just too busy.
[Tanya:] Yup. I have too much to do. I don’t have enough time.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Don’t have enough time. What will people think? How will it be if
I start doing this and not that, right? Mind, for some of us, that drops down into our
body. Maybe we don’t thoughts, or we can’t really verbalize what it is we’re thinking,
but we just feel a little different, uncomfortable, agitated. I don’t know; who is this
person? Not me.
And before we know it, most of us, at least, you know, and for some of us, we might
check that new habit box a couple of days in a row. Right. White-knuckling it
though. Before long, so many of us, and this includes myself, shift right back into
9 of 13

that familiar. Yet we have that really strong overview where we get really critical.
That really strong part of ourself. It’s like, Of course you can’t; here’s further evidence
of why you can’t change.
[Tanya:] We self-sabotage ourselves without even realizing it. And this is why you talk
about this idea of becoming transparent to yourself, right? You talk about this idea.
You say one of the first steps is becoming transparent to ourselves. What does that
mean?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Exactly. It’s two things. I mean, it’s what we’re talking about right
now being conscious to ourselves, right? Not just shifting into autopilot, doing all of
the things without knowing we’re doing them. Being that observer watching, what
time do you get up? What are your habits watching yourself relate? We are the only
animals in the animal kingdom that had that ability to have thought about thought,
or to be in self-witnessing mode; to observe oneself.
That is a habit though. Most of us don’t have that habit. We’re just living. Most of us
are living very reactively, so we’re not living consciously at all.
[Tanya:] Right. So it’s true.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] When I say it’s habit, I mean learning how to practice that
consciousness that we were talking about day in and day out. So I can become a
consistent observer. That’s going to be, I think the number one pattern is observing
and then extension; breaking the habit of being critical about what we observed. So
many of us run our own worst critics as we all love to say. And that includes us then
judging right? Sitting in judgment about what we see. The next important habit
then is to cultivate that nonjudgmental; how to just objectively really see what is for
a lot of us.
And this is why I talk about the physiology, which connects to how this is
intergenerationally, right, modeled to us. For a lot of us, that can be the reframe. So if
I can see why I am the way I am for some of us that allows us to relieve that
judgment. If I can see that I was limited because I was born of parents that, you
know, were, were functioning in their bodies in the way that they were. And they
were then modeling me once I was here on earth, all of these different habits and
patterns.
So quite simply I was limited with what I could learn. So once I expand and I see
maybe the habits and patterns that don’t serve me, and I saw a lot of things that
made me incredibly uncomfortable with myself, that I wasn’t proud of. However, I
could understand where they came from. So that for me, allowed me to have a slight

10 of 13

amount of compassion for what I was seeing in myself. And that can extend to many
of us. Though, I know that our first instinct usually is to judge.
[Tanya:] It is. We jump to judge, don’t we? We’re real quick to give ourselves the
worst snap judgments. You know, flexibility for ourselves, and I love you touch there
just a little bit on, you’ve gone through this journey yourself and I that’s one of the
most powerful things in this book is you give the science, you have the credibility
backing you up.
You have all of this knowledge and insight, but you also share the journey and what
you have been through in the book. And it really is so incredibly powerful and very
vulnerable. I think, you know, authenticity is one of those things that we toss out a
lot nowadays, but it’s, it’s really hard to come by when people are sharing their
stories, truly Raleigh and authentically, which you do in this book, which I think is just
absolutely so empowering to your readers. So Nicole, could you tell my listeners
where they can find you and where they can get ahold of your book?
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Absolutely. And thank you for acknowledging that because I
know how difficult it is to be authentic. So for anyone out there who is struggling,
know that, you know, while thank you for acknowledging me being transparent,
being authentic, I do want to share with everyone that it doesn’t come easy.
There is a lot of challenge, even for me on the daily. There’s a very big part of my
inner child. I talk all about inner child in the book–
[Tanya:] Yes.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] that actually would rather die than seeing that as much as she
desperately wants it. There’s a very big part of me. And it’s like that closet over there.
It looks so real nice. I’m going to go pop in. So again, I don’t care. I agree with that.
Firstly, the writing books where it’s like, here’s this, Oh God, did I just write that?
Yeah, Absolutely. And I just, you know, honoring, you as well, Tanya, cause I think a
lot of times people like myself and you can be looked at and assume that it’s so, so
easy cause we’re doing it.
So again, I just want to acknowledge the bravery of anyone out there. Who’s sharing
their story, even if it’s not, you know, across the internet as you and I are right now
though, even to friends, even to loved ones. Right? So incredibly vulnerable place to
go.
So honoring that where you can see me, hear me showing up every day, the main
place that I always am is Instagram. And there’s a YouTube channel at the holistic

11 of 13

psychologist as well. My website, yourholisticpsychologist. So lots of fun things going
on though. I am often sharing my journey on all of those formats as well.
[Tanya:] Well thank you so much, Nicole. And Nicole’s book is out now. You’re gonna
want to grab it. I’ll give more details in just a second on that. Thank you so much,
Nicole. This was an amazing conversation. I really think that my listeners are going to
walk away from this conversation feeling more empowered. You opened the door for
them that there’s this whole possibility, this whole opportunity out there for them to
heal themselves. So thank you so much for coming on the show today.
[Dr. Nicole LePera:] Thank you so much for having me.
[Tanya:] Okay. I don’t know about you, but I felt like there were so many nuggets of
information, so many great points and ideas that Dr. Nicole LePera shared with us
today. I’m walking away from today’s episode, feeling a little more enlightened, a
little more excited and a little more optimistic about my own self healing, the idea
and the concept that we have, the ability to heal ourselves, I think is so incredibly
empowering.
And I feel like a lot of what we talked about, how it’s been proven again and again,
how it not only embodies itself in our minds, but also physically with how our bodies
react. All of that just plays so beautifully into everything we’ve been talking about
here. As we’ve been talking about awakenings and of course, as always I’ll have the
link. So you can connect with Dr. Nicola LePera in my show notes; head to
tanyadalton.com to grab those.
And speaking of going to Tanyadalton.com, I want to make sure that you know, that
I am offering an incredible five-day challenge that is absolutely free. One of the
things I hear from so many of you is that, Ah, you just don’t have the time. What if I
tell you, you can clone yourself? We’re going to go through and do a five day
challenge all about cloning yourself, because here’s the thing: I do hear that from a
lot of people that you just don’t feel like you have the time, but you feel like you have
to be everywhere as a business owner.
As an entrepreneur, you feel like you have to be on all the platforms. You have to be
on LinkedIn. You need to be on Facebook. You need to be on Instagram here and
there and everywhere. And that’s exhausting. It’s no surprise. You feel like you don’t
have enough time. So I’m out to help you fix that. I have lined up an incredible five
days for us to dive deep into how you can make it easier to look like you’re
everywhere without wearing yourself out.
That is exactly what cloning yourself is all about. So I would love to see you joining
me in this five day challenge, go to Tanyadalton.com/challenge. This is going to be

really interesting. I’m doing something very unique and different. I’ve never done it
before. There’s going to be some prerecorded sections and a lot of lives.
So we’re going to be doing kind of a mix of coursework and diving into doing some
lives and some interactions and lots of Q and A we’re going to have a lot of fun and
it’s all free to join. So be sure to head to Tanyadalton.com/challenge, I would love to
see you there because I would love to see you cloning yourself.
Just the thought of that makes me feel a little bit more empowered, a little more
excited. And I’m hoping that today’s episode did that for you as well because
everything that Nicole talked about in today’s episode is true. We do have the ability
to heal ourselves. The power rests within us to make a difference in our lives.And
when we understand that and when we embrace that idea, that is when we get the
Intentional Advantage.
