I really believe that reality is somewhat like a mirror; reflecting back to you what you believe about yourself.
So your self-concept, your own beliefs really determine what version of reality that you are aligned with, or at least what version of reality that you can actually see and perceive.

In this episode, Olivia has a solo episode talking about how the Law of Assumption and Neville Goddard have truly changed her life.
The Law of Assumption states that what we assume to be true about situations is how it will show up in our life.
In every situation, we can assume it’s going to go in the way that we want it to or it’s going to go bad. When Olivia realized that what you focus on expands, she decided to be intentional to focus on the outcome she actually wanted and it has changed her life.

We are back!! In this episode, we talked about how it’s SO important to make a pivot and make a change when you realize you have an area in your life that you want to improve.
We discussed how to figure out when it’s time to pivot and how it might be uncomfortable at first because our brain is often resistant to change but is crucial in order to become the best, newer version of yourself.

In this episode, we talked about how generational trauma and limiting beliefs from the people who raised you can affect you in ways you are not even aware of. We discussed the importance of first, identifying those beliefs and trauma and then intentionally healing.
“Your pain didn't start with you but it can end with you” - Stephanie Hutchins
Your family might not have been perfect, maybe even FAR from that, but when you are intentionally doing the healing work, you realize that people are always doing the best they can at the time.

In this episode, we talked about how manifesting is basically gaslighting yourself into believing that your manifestations are possible for you. It’s almost like tricking your brain into finally believing in yourself. We discussed many different ways and techniques that you can use!
When you visualize your goals and your manifestations, you are training and priming your brain and your RAS to seek out examples of what you are manifesting in your reality. What you focus on, expands so focusing on your manifestations is KEY!

In this episode, we talked about how being self-aware of the coping mechanisms we each revert to in times of stress is extremely important.
A coping mechanism is our automatic response to how we deal with a lot of emotions. We all get overwhelmed in life and we have to be disciplined to choose a higher vibrational coping mechanism so we are not participating in self-destructive habits.
Choosing a better coping mechanism is a huge part of practicing self-love. Doing the hard thing now is helping and benefiting your future self.

In this episode, we talked about how asking for what you want and being open to receiving are CRUCIAL parts of manifesting.
So often we don’t let ourselves get our hopes up because of the fear of being disappointed or feeling like we are asking for too much.
In each situation, we have the choice of assuming and focusing on the worst-case scenario, or the best-case scenario. When you actually let yourself hope for what you truly WANT, you will be surprised how fast it comes into your reality.

In this episode, we talked about how taking inspired action is such a necessary part of chasing your dreams and how you can tap into your senses and take more inspired action in your journey.
We are so excited that our first episode is talking about inspired action because starting this podcast was literally inspired action for us each.
We also discuss how it was very divine how we met in the first place!

Welcome to Duo Reality Podcast, I’m your host Mercedes Blendzz and today we’re talking about imposter syndrome!
During this episode you will learn:
- What Imposter Syndrome is.
- How to identify Imposter syndrome within yourself.
- How to overcome this psychological pattern and break through your own fears.
Meat + Potatoes:
What is imposter syndrome? According to Wikipedia it is: “a psychological pattern in which an individual doubts their skills, talents or accomplishments and has a persistent internalized fear of being exposed as a "fraud".”
This can happen to anyone at any time for any reason. - internalized fear - this is actually years of programming coming to the surface when you are trying something “new”
For example: creating this podcast I was faced with this syndrome head on for the first time.
- What do I have to say that’s so monumental ?
- I didn’t even finish school, who would listen to me?
- I’m so young, what do I have to offer?
- people are going to think I’m a fraud and make fun of me or call me out.
These are LIMITING BELIEFS that I internalized and created that only ignited the imposter syndrome.
So, how do I identify this syndrome within myself?
-
Self-awareness is NECESSARY. A constant assessment of self-thought is the first line of defense in identifying and weeding out Imposter Syndrome tendencies.
-
Journaling. Writing down your FEARS! This is something that is often looked over because of its simplicity, however this act is POWERFUL in identifying when imposter syndrome strikes.
-
Speaking with your TRIBE. Utilize your tribe as your safe space to voice your fears. Often times if YOU can’t identify, THEY can.
How do I overcome Imposter Syndrome?
-
For every fear you have, write out a list of truths that counter that fear.
-
Surround yourself with reminders of how badass you are. This includes PEOPLE. Alerts on your phone.
