In episode 24 of Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Marlowe welcomes Kayma Wolday and Olivia Rose Thomas, co-hosts of Inspired Delusions, to discuss shadow work, authenticity, and self-discovery. Kayma and Olivia discuss how they left traditional careers to recognize what they want, rewire their mindsets, and regulate their nervous systems.

Trusting the universe requires you to be authentic. One of the key elements of trusting the universe is the willingness to be open to its guidance. Olivia shares her journey from skepticism to belief, highlighting how she began to ask the universe for help and set intentions. Kayma explains how she has faced moments of anxiety, and she had to remind herself that her beliefs are not the same as those around her, and she has to keep reminding herself of the power and truth of her delusions and goals.

On Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Kayma Wolday and Olivia Rose Thomse, hosts of Immspired Delusions, introduce their 3R formula—Recognize, Rewire, and Regulate—as a practical approach to personal development.

1. Recognize: This first step involves becoming aware of limiting beliefs and understanding what one truly desires. Engaging in shadow work is a crucial part of this process, as it helps individuals identify the hidden aspects of themselves that may be holding them back.

2. Rewire: Once individuals recognize their limiting beliefs, the next step is to rewire their subconscious mind. This involves challenging old narratives and replacing them with empowering beliefs that align with one's goals.

3. Regulate: The final step focuses on regulating the nervous system to release old beliefs and embrace new ones. This can involve practices such as mindfulness, meditation, or other techniques that promote emotional balance.

By following the 3R formula, Recognize, Rewire, and Regulate, and embracing shadow work and navigating challenges with a growth mindset, you can embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and ultimately leading to a more authentic life.

Deciding to leave a corporate job can be daunting, but it can also serve as a launchpad for personal growth. In Episode 23 of Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Marlowe connects with a former colleague, Britt Roman, who reflects on her career in Corporate America, particularly at Aerie, and why she leaped into entrepreneurship.

Britt has always enjoyed fashion. However, she merged her mathematics college degree with her creativity and worked in Corporate Retail Merchandising for 15 years. However, when Britt realized that she wanted more from her life, she had to make a significant decision: remain comfortable and follow the plan, or take a leap and write her own plan?

Britt Roman chose to jump!

After moving to Dallas with her husband, Britt found peace and began thrifting and shopping for gently loved clothing that she could style. Britt Roman created the online storefront, "Tribute to My Closet," where she sells clothing and will curate items specifically for you as a tribute to your closet. These “Tribute Bundles” enable you to share your event or motivation for shopping and receive a 100% customized set of looks that cannot be found anywhere else.

On Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Britt explains the serendipitous meeting with Carol, a fellow thrifter, and how this new friendship allowed her to truly appreciate the community aspect of thrifting and. refreshing your wardrobe with timeless, vintage pieces.

Your style is uniquely yours, and it deserves more than fast fashion. Britt Roman urges you to see thrifting, secondhand shopping, and entrepreneurship as empowering, as you pay tribute to your closet.

Breathing is not just a biological function; it's a gateway to our potential!

In Episode 22 of Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Marlowe speaks with Raj Khedun about the profound impact of breathing and mindfulness on the personal journey of being more authentic. Raj emphasizes that our breath is not just a physiological function; it is a vital connection to the universe and our inner selves.

Raj discusses breathwork and guides Marlowe through a session of what he calls the 3/3 Breathing Method. Focusing on our breath allows us to shift from a state of stress and anxiety (sympathetic nervous system) to a state of relaxation and healing (parasympathetic nervous system). This transition is crucial for maintaining mental clarity and emotional balance. Everyone in the audience is encouraged to follow along with the one-minute session.

Visit Keep Fit Kingdom to discover additional breathing tools, trainings, and courses from Raj and the Keep Fit Kingdom team. The journey to authenticity is ongoing, requiring continuous self-reflection, and a commitment to personal growth.

This episode also dives into the value of gratitutde, the concept of life force, and mind power are overlooked and deeply important in life. As Raj eloquently states, "It's our responsibility to live in such a way that helps us to remind ourselves of that joy, that bliss constantly, all day, every day." Gratitude helps remind us of the joys and bliss of life.
