• Unhappy With Your Life? Why You Need to Identify Your Top 3 Values | Dr. Molly Burrets

  Ep 141. Do you know your top five values? Or even your top three? Often, we think we are making decisions based on our values, but we may be unknowingly making decisions based on our fears. This week, Dr. Molly Burrets, a highly regarded licensed clinical psychologist and professor at the University of Southern California (USC), is breaking down the psychology behind values-based decision-making. If you’re someone who often feels at odds when making decisions, like two parts of your brain are arguing and pulling apart from each other? Dr. Molly expertly explains what is happening on a psychological level and how to break the cycle we often find ourselves in when fear creeps into our decision-making. She breaks down the dynamics of control – why we seek control to gain safety and how this can hinder our ability to attain genuine connection in our relationships. Her insights on the pursuit of safety, with control leading to hypervigilance, were truly one of those moments on the podcast that will stop you in your tracks. Dr. Molly is truly brilliant with unwavering emotional intelligence. She breaks down everything from learning your no’s to why high-achieving women often struggle with connection.

• "You're Going to Die An Artist" - How One Reading Helped Me Remember My Gifts & Pursue Music with Nikki Novo

  Ep 139. Three years ago, I felt completely lost. I was paralyzed by this feeling that my life no longer matched my purpose — like I needed to step back, stop the ship, and change course, even though nothing was “wrong.” During my yearly birthday reading with master intuitive Nikki Novo, she told me that my soul was renegotiating its contract and was ready to bring some deeper medicine to the world. “For some reason I’m seeing you at the end of your life… and you’re going to die being known as an artist.” As an herbalist, I was confused. I thought the holistic health world and business was my calling. I thought I already created my “thing.” But what if that was a chapter, one way to share, but not even scratching the surface of my gifts? For those years, I sat through my grueling death and rebirth, holding onto her words. Finally, my art came. I painted for 9 months straight, then woke up one day, decided to finally own my true gifts, and started writing music. Today, I have completed writing and recording my first album, prepping for release later this year. In this episode, I sit down with the woman who always sees my life coming before I do. Her highly accurate predictions have hinted for years about my journey with music and so much more. We dive into the behind-the-scenes of her readings and the importance of creating rituals around creativity. Nikki shares her story of telling her family about her gift and moving from a place of generational survival to creativity. If you, like me, feel you are ready to step into your natural born gifts but don’t know how to identify or share them, this one is for you!    HERE'S THE JUICE:   Why the relationship between our inner creative and our inner manager is vital to allowing the space for us to create – oftentimes, a certain level of safety is needed before we can make art Identifying your natural born gifts and the importance of respecting them for them to grow  The deep power of rituals around creating art and identifying a practice for yourself to trust that you will be able to tune into your creativity when you want to The profound importance of seeing gifts in others and the understanding that for a gift to turn into a talent it needs to be valued - why you only need one person to see your gift and hold that higher vision for it Walking the line between sharing too much in readings and the importance of not changing our path – What Nikki feels a reading should be used for   Connect with Olivia: Watch the full episode on What’s The Juice YouTube Channel  To support our ad-free show, shop Olivia’s line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more by visiting www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with Nikki: Follow Nikki on Instagram  Follow Nikki on YouTube  Nikki's website  Nikkis Courses   Connect with What’s The Juice: Follow What’s The Juice  Leave us a voicemail  Email us: [email protected] Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia’s personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia’s blog posts
