EPISODE 23: FEAR of being Judged, BEING Judged and Judging OTHERS

And after years of helping women to let go of this most crippling and UNNECESSARY feeling, I've come to the conclusion that the head talk the drives guilt lives on a timeline.  So in this weeks episode, I'm going to share with you how you can let go of PAST driven guilt, FUTURE fear based guilt AND the guilt that stops you from doing those things you desire to do for you!  Learn more about how Owning Your BS can help you to establish your ideal life with Emotional Control at www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

EPISODE 21 - My Journey

You wake up in the morning. Before you even get out of bed you know what's going to happen.... kids, work, kids, hubby, house.... you're stuck in a rut, a ground hog day existence and it's driving you nuts.... Are you stuck in this merry-go-round of living? My experience tells me there's 3 'zones' of a Ground Hog Day existence... How is it affecting you? And what can you do to start to transform into a new zone where you feel excited and inspired by your life again?  Learn more about how Owning Your BS can help you to establish your ideal life with Emotional Control at www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

Episode 20 - Are you stuck in a Ground Hog Day Existence

Is it the right time? Should I get someone else's opinion? Maybe I should wait until a better time.... next year is a good time. I'll do it then.  Head Talk has a nasty habit of overcomplicating our decisions - highlighting the 'what if's', the doubts, the insecurities and fears. The heart however often guides us to what we truly desire.... problem is we don't listen to it often (or is it that we don't know HOW to listen to is?) And that's what we're exploring this week....  Learn more about how Owning Your BS can help you to establish your ideal life with Emotional Control at www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

Episode 19 - How do I know if it's the right time

Work/Life Balance.  Apparently you've got success when you can say you're enjoying work/life balance. I personally feel that's BS - it's an unattainable, unrealistic expectation to have on yourself AND it is a breeding ground for negative head talk.  So what can we focus on instead? In this weeks episode I'm going to share with you a new approach - and because it's a new way of looking at things, I'm putting together some worksheets to help you make the most of it.

Episode 18 - Why I call BS on Work-Life Balance

Let's be real - BS isn't just an 'us' issue.... often our loved ones get trapped in it to. And as women, often we get caught up in the drama/challenge/situation that is negatively impacting our children, our partner, our family, friends or even clients. It's natural to want to help someone, to feel responsible for their happiness, to want to 'fix' their problems....  SO, how do we stay on top of our BS AND help our loved ones when they are in their OWN BS?  This is what I'll be exploring this week - how YOU can keep yourself grounded, why it's so important that you do AND how you can gently encourage others out of their BS ;)  Learn more about Own Your BS at www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

Episode 17 - What to do when a loved one is stuck in BS

So often when I share what happens in my life I have someone comment "are you owning YOUR BS Bree?"  Which has spurred me on to talk more about what Owning your BS actually looks like AND what staying stuck in story, negative thinking or stuck is.  It's an important distinction to make because it is human nature to 1. experience challenges and 2. to experience negative emotions therefore from time to time you're going to experience some BS. The trick is being AWARE, knowing what ACTIONS to make and ALIGNING those with whats important to you - this in essence is Owning Your BS.   So, how do we Own the BS when that happens? .... lets explore it this week!

Episode 15 - Weighty, Heavy Stories

It can stop you in your tracks.  Causing you to over think. Over process. Over analyse.  Despite a mile long list of things to do, it can cause you to lose all motivation and traction.  Emotions can be heightened.  This is overwhelm. And today, we're going to explore contributing factors to overwhelm AND things you can do when you feel the fogginess of the state come over you.  Learn more about Own Your BS at www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

Episode 14 - Get Over Overwhelm

Join Female Head Talk Expert Bree Stedman as she goes deeper than the fluff of 'just be positive' and sheds light on how to turn negative, sabotaging and destructive self-talk into solution focused emotional control

Something about the Aussie accent makes it perfect for telling people to own their BS. 
But don’t worry potential listeners, this podcast is no drill sergeant. It’s host reveals her own BS so that she can take us through the steps of BS ownership. 
I binged through all the episodes and now that I own my own my own BS I might try to go with a short sale and unload it if the market’s right...

Love the name, love the accent

Bree offers some great advice on how to stop sabotaging yourself and start progressing towards your goals.  What I really like is the brief moments of silence to turn your thoughts inwards and reflect on the topic, like thinking of the excuses that you may be making, the underlying reasons, and how to get past them.  The presentation and delivery of the message is great, too!

Great Opportunities For Reflection

Own Your BS: The Podcast

Since 2012 I've worked with hundreds of women - helping them to break down negative thinking and feeling. And in that time, the one thing that dominates above all other thinking is  ".... not good enough"  Wether it's a reflection of self, an activity or otherwise, things never measuring up to be good enough cause more grief, concern and overthinking than just about any other thought.  And so today, we're going to re-evaluate what 'good enough' means and reset the parameters of your thinking so you can start creating, and living YOUR good enough.  Visit the home of Own Your BS at the brand new website www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

EPISODE 3: Not Good Enough

You've been running around all day, ticking items off your to do list. You grab a quick cup of tea at the end of the day, and sit down on the lounge for a quick 5 minutes before the next string of tasks is begun.  And it starts.... "I should play with the kids" "I should work on my business" "I should call my mum" The 'I should' is a lot more destructive to your emotional control and confidence then you probably recognise. Filling you with the need to act out of obligation, to criticise, judge and degrade your current actions and leave you feeling guilty, resentful or not fully engaged.  Today we are going to start rephrasing the heaviness of 'I should' with something that inspires action, confirms choices and leaves you feeling far more in control.  Visit the home of Own Your BS at the brand new website www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

EPISODE 4: I should

You know that feel when every day feels like a HUGE effort - you're stressed, overwhelmed, the list of everything that needs to get done if 5miles long and worse yet, you're not enjoying your life.  The head talk seems like it's screaming at you from every direction, you're grumpy, grouchy, snappy OR flat, lackluster and lost.  It's my belief that this is a result of living too much of your life in FORCE. You're going against the FLOW of who you are!  This was a big lesson for me just a few weeks ago - a wake up call if you like that has caused me to SURRENDER and just embrace flow.  And that's what I want to share with you this week - to encourage you to see where you are Forcing yourself and replace it instead with flow, ease, grace and emotional control!  Learn more about Own Your BS at www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com

Episode 12: Head Talk & Hormones

I've had the privilege of working alongside a lot of women in my life, and what I've observed as one of the greatest suckers of energy, happiness and joy is a woman's instinct to revisit, retell and relive past stories. For women, this is such a destructive habit to fall into and one that I am passionate to help women break.  This weeks episode is a bit of a passionate rant with the aim to inspire you to get out of and stop living in and retelling the stories of your past.  For more information about Own Your BS services and products including registering for the 6 week online program, visit www.ownyourbs.com And if you have common stories, repetitive self-talk or something you'd like me to discuss on the Podcast, feel free to email me at bree@breestedman.com
