From Barriers to Breakthroughs

In this episode, Rebecca Mountain & guest Marcos Mendoza explore the everyday barriers that hinder our integrity and fulfillment, from social media validation to overstimulation, especially for those with ADHD. We discuss the importance of self-reflection, accountability, and how our role as coaches help us uncover our own insights. Learn how to identify personal barriers, evaluate your core values, and understand the vital link between integrity and personal growth. Join us for practical tips on cultivating resilience and self-commitment as we navigate the path to a more fulfilling life. 

Are you looking for ways to reach your greatest life? Do you want to find out what your GOAT Path is? If so, then this podcast is for you!Today, we're going to explore the concept of the GOAT Path and how to find out what it is. We'll also discuss the different components that make up the GOAT Path and how to reach your greatest life.If you're interested in finding out what your greatest life could look like, then this podcast is for you! By the end of the podcast, you'll have a better idea of what you need to do to reach your goals and live the happiest, wealthiest and most fulfilling life possible!You don't have to be lost. You are not broken. And you have choices. As you take even the smallest step towards what you really want - heck, if you even take the time to DETERMINE what you want - then you'll find that the opportunities start to pile up, and that future that you thought was so far away becomes real.

You may be attempting to be productive...but doing it all wrong. Anyone can be busy. It takes some training, practice and strategy to be really productive. It's been a theme in some of my coaching calls lately so I figured I'd share some ideas here on how to fix your "busy" or "I just can't get to the important stuff" problem. It's easy to get dragged into other peoples' emergencies. They can seem so compelling! It's easier to solve someone else's problems than our own anyway so who cares? Then you drop what you're doing, no matter how important...and skip off with your 5 Alarm Fire Friend. That's not going to get you anywhere. You'll eventually come back to whatever you were working on (or not), and feel like you have to start allllll over again. Save yourself the mental anguish. Follow these rules and it'll be a golden, beautiful and productive day!

Life happens and it's not always pretty. On a day when nothing seems to work, and you find yourself laying on the floor outside your office staring into space wondering how you can turn things around...you have a choice. You can choose to complain about your situation, or contain it - and not let it steal your joy and your productivity!

Taking your self-limiting thoughts and beliefs, and burning them to ashes is insanely satisfying - and psychologically freeing. Remove the burden and blindness of your self-sabotaging thoughts with your own F*ck It Bucket!

Being "nice" isn't actually getting you anywhere. Being KIND, however, offers clarity - and you get WAY better results. Here's how to know if you're being nice (and getting nowhere) or kind.

There is a constant war for our attention. Billboards, ads, social media feeds and more. I have come to realize that the social networks in particular are insidious and downright dangerous for us, because they are literally designed to make us enraged (not engaged), they prey on our weaknesses and insecurities, making us feel like we are alone in our problems. Worse, they try to convince us that systemic, deep problems can be whisked away with "this one simple solution!" There is an opportunity to make a change at the individual level, and it's in you to do! There are ideas not only on what we can do individually, but how we can contribute to changing the way our social networks - and society at large - operate, driving us more towards growth and joy than degradation and anger.

You can tell yourself that the world is out to get you, and that you're not equipped to handle things..Or you can be like Dorothy, the Tin Man and the Lion and "Lions, Tigers and Bears, Oh my!" your way through the day, using phrases that build confidence, not tear it down.Have a listen as I explain what I mean, so you can start using better words to tell your brain what to see, and how to respond to any situation in life!

Business planning can create massive anxiety: how will you achieve that  income goal next year? It's so BIG! How will you grow your business?  What if the economy tanks even more? What if interest rates skyrocket  out of control? What if...what if...what if...?   There's a much less stressful way to plan - and it involves focusing on  ONE THING and one thing only: you.   This strategy works for entrepreneurs, corporate  executives, even kids in school. Trust me - it's the least stressful way  to get the results you want.

When things get tough, or when something goes wrong, we instinctively  want to lay blame anywhere but on ourselves. But that’s not helpful and  the absolute opposite of accountability. Here’s how to stop the impulse and make peace with what you cannot control.

Most people do time management all wrong. There’s no ONE way to do it- there’s just YOUR way to do it. In this episode, I tell you how to figure that out.

I wrote most of my book in 3 days because I REALLY wanted it published  before Christmas.  How badly do you want things to turn out for you? If you don't care  enough, your brain won't trigger to put in the effort. Watch and see if  there's a way for you to get everything you want, by giving your brain  the right instructions!

I had to let go of my expectations for my son on how he'd finish school.  Then I turned the practice on myself and the results were amazing.   Here's how and why you should relinquish your own expectations...and  find peace.

Where are you building your home? In others? In the future, or the past? In your job or career? We can build our homes everywhere, but if those things leave...we're homeless.In today's episode, I explain the power of building your home within - and nowhere else.

Goal-setting can be downright dangerous...and demotivating. Kind of the  opposite of what they're intended for, right?   I've got 3 new ways you can set goals for yourself, using YOUR unique  motivators, not everyone else's.   Stop living someone else's life, and building someone else's business.  Do it on your terms and start with setting goals YOUR way!

If you can't name your emotions, or define how you feel (good, bad or  ugly) you're doomed to stay in a state of "emotional" brain fog. You  can't think straight, make good decisions, and you'll find yourself  shooting off your mouth more than you wanted.    To get to a point of clarity, high performance, happiness, income growth  and fulfillment, the better you are at naming your emotions, the better  chance you have to create a plan to deal with them and move on. Don't  stay stuck!     To book a call with me directly, right now, click HERE: https://www.scheduleyou.in/rMx7QLdDk

I did a keynote recently where I explained how each of us can be our own "greatest of all time."Now I want to introduce the idea that you can be the star of your own show: The (your name here) Do Sh*t Show!Waiting to "feel" ready, confident, and set to take on the world (or that tiny task you keep putting off)? NO GO!The feelings you want - and the support, ideas, creativity and open doors - only come once you start moving!So start writing a new episode for your Do Sh*t Show and get going!

The root of all success, happiness and more - is in "self-(something)"....Self-awarenessSelf-managementSelf-controlSelf-loveSelf-validationSelf-adorationThe only "self" word that has NOTHING to do with growth, power and happiness is "selfish", which ironically is what you often get accused of being when you start taking care of yourself.People sometimes want you to take care of them and only them.But that doesn't fly. They need to grow on their own - and it's not your job.So throw off the chains. Unburden yourself from their care, and replace it with self-care instead.Because you can still care, without making care a burden!

Uncertainty can absolutely paralyze us, but it doesn't have to. Find  ways to test your "intolerance to uncertainty" levels and continue to  learn and grow, not get stuck in your comfort zone!

Today, I explain how procrastination and other avoidance behaviours are actually rooted in EMOTION - not any productivity  strategy, coaching technique or morning routine. You can fix it...but  you have to let your "sleeping dragon" lie.

Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars. Social media went nuts -  but little of it does any good. All that negativity and mud-throwing  just brings us ALL down.

You have a dark side, and if you use it well, it will make your strengths stronger, and your light brighter.Most people don't want to admit they have one.When I did, my whole world changed. Here's my story.

My arms are tired. I started back at a strength gym, and now my muscles are jumpy and weak AF. I could say "I have to" go to the gym, but that doesn't make me feel all motivated and sunny inside.

Today, for the first time ever, I spoke with someone who had also left a cult and was trying to rebuild his life.Quick update if you don't know:I  grew up in a fundamentalist household, cut off from what "normal"  people got to experience - no TV, movies, makeup, jewelry, parties,  dances, and later no alcohol and discouraged from having friends outside  The Truth (as it is called).But I left it in 2008 and continued to suffer from self-sabotage behaviours that came from living like that.In 2018, I realized that I could use my story for GOOD and that's been my focus ever since.Today, I had the privilege of sharing how I converted a traumatic past into something that I can use to help others.And no matter what your story is, you can, too.
