Neuro-Linguistic Programming can be described as the 'language of the brain.'

In episode #42 Joanne speaks with Brenda Johnston, an NLP Practitioner who helps high performers to reprogram their internal beliefs around money & success. 

NLP helps people to learn about the power of the subconscious, why they perceive things the way do and how these world perceptions influence their behaviour.

Brenda shares how simply being conscious of or re-framing negative repetitive thought patterns can help us to over-ride them or replace them with new and helpful thoughts. Some of the topics touched on in the episode include:

  • Where negative programming comes from and how it affects us later in life.
  • Why children are most susceptible to programming and how our early experiences shape us.
  • The importance of reinforcing positive behaviours/self talk with kids and leading by example (despite our own negative programming.)
  • Identifying the blocks and programming that hinders our success.
  • How having a scarcity mindset translates into all aspects of our lives.
  • Strategies for changing negative thought patterns.
