Epic Success With Dr Shannon Irvine

How many times have you planned on doing a social media live, only to stare at your face in the camera for five minutes, *palms sweaty*, and close the app because of nerves?  I know it’s not just me!  We make these big plans, we have the script and the steps and the to-do list but something always keeps us from actually doing it. We keep… stopping.  In this week’s episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about how to hack your brain's protection system so that you Stop Stopping!  It's time to finally take action and start working your brain for your advantage so that you can build the life and business you’ve always dreamed of having. I can’t wait to dive into the three things that you must do to help your brain see that it’s safe to stop stopping! Grab a pen and paper and let’s jump into hacking your brain! The biggest take-aways from today’s episode are:   You have automated stories that keep you playing small.    Your brain automates the thoughts that are repeated over time. You probably have automate

Money is… what? Okay... Tell me honestly, what was you first thought!?  The truth is, every single person is going to have a different answer. Every single person has different thoughts and beliefs about and around money. “Money is hard to make.” “Money is a necessary evil.” “Money is the root of all evil.” “Money is energy.” And then there’s the “I need more money.” “You can never have enough money.” And maybe for a few of you, “Money is easy to make and it comes to me easily!” Whatever the story is, the truth is, you have one… You have a money story.  In this week’s episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about your brain and money - what you think and believe about money, and therefore what happens in your life because of it. Our brain automates all sorts of stories… Including money stories. What you believe about money and what you think about money matters.  I can’t wait to dive into your brain and money so that you can finally start choosing the thoughts in your brain that will bring you the money s

When I was a kid, we would drive through upscale neighborhoods and my dad would always say, “These people can only afford living here because they’re living off the work of good people.” In my young, child brain, I equated having money and living in a nice house to being a bad person. And my brain not only believed that for many, many years, but it caused me to operate and make decisions out of that belief. It held me back for a long time.  In this week’s episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I break down How the Brain Wires Success and How the Brain Wires Failure. Our brain is wired in such a specific way and when we have an understanding of how the brain works and operates, we are able to work our brains for us, instead of our brains working us. I can’t wait to dive into success and failure in your brain so that you can go from stressed-success to thriving success.  The biggest take-aways from today’s episode are:   Your negative thinking is not your fault.   First things first… The way you think is not.yo

Have you ever been stretched too thin and overwhelmed? Me too! When I first started as an entrepreneur there was never enough of me to go around.  I wanted to do it all - run my business, grow my non-profit, care for my household, and be a mother - but I felt like I’d have to give something up.  What I didn’t know was that my brain was working against me… instead of having my brain work for me.  This week is the ninth week in our podcast series: The Brain Science of Success.  In this week’s episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about the three key components that science teaches us about success in the brain.  Knowing how your brain works is key to understanding how you're wired, and if you don’t, you are at risk of working against your brain - instead of having your brain work for you and for your advantage.  I can’t wait to dive into the 3 key components that will help you become the creator of your thoughts so you can create the life you’ve always dreamed of having.  The biggest take-aways from today

What makes you tick? Why are you the way that you are? How many Buzzfeed quizzes and personality tests have you taken to figure it out? Which Disney Character am I? What color is my aura?

I don’t know if you knew this or not but… We  store emotion in our body.  That stress, anxiety, overwhelm… All of that emotion comes from thoughts - and those thoughts are directly connected and interwoven with your body.  What you think affects your body. How your body feels affects your mind.  It’s Mind-Body Connection.  This week is the seventh week in our podcast series: The Brain Science of Success.

Whether you think you can or think you can’t… You’re right.  Henry Ford said that in 1947 and he had a point. The things you think will play out in your day-to-day life.

How do you view your brain? How do you view your body? When you think about your brain and your body, are you separating the two?

There are two childhood events that would forever impact my life. I was abandoned by my father, first as a one year old, then again at the crucial age of 12. The depth of the broken and unworthy feeling that came from my father’s abandonment colored everything I did. I leaned toward a driven sense of perfection. Although a successful career and entrepreneurship filled my life with excitement and material things, and I was good at what I did and loved what it brought me, I could not fill the hole in my heart.  I’m not the only one with this story or one similar to it.

Hustle. Hard work. 20 hour days. 7 days a week. Doing it alone. No team. No time. No freedom. No success. It’s easy to fall into the mindset of a solo-entrepreneur. It’s easy to fall into the pattern of all work and no play. It’s easy to fall into busy-ness and forget why you started your business in the first place.  And that doesn’t have to be you!  You can work hard, play harder, and still grow your business into the six, seven, and eight figures you’ve been dreaming of.  And you can do it by building a team.  In this week’s episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with Kelly Roach aboud building teams that actually help you grow your business, profits, and vision.  Kelly Roach transforms overworked entrepreneurs into seven-figure CEO's.

But first I want to share something that might be hard to hear… and I have to share it anyway.  The reason you’re feeling stuck and the reason why you don’t see the success you’ve been dreaming of is...  Your brain isn’t wired for success... YET.  In other words - your brain is sabotaging your success and it’s getting in your way.

“I’ll sleep when I’m dead.”  “If I just work harder, I’ll be more successful.” “I need the latest strategy and funnel for my product to get big!” I used to think these exact things.

I see business owners trying to make it big by playing it safe. Operating in fear… Saying no to risks… Staying in familiarity and comfort… And it rarely works.  As entrepreneurs, we should be showing up big! passionate! and confident!

When I first started out in my business I was a mess. Like… A really. big. mess. I was all over the place. I felt like I couldn’t do everything I wanted to do. I was juggling my home duties and being a wife. I was newly pregnant and running a business and my non-profit.  And I honestly thought I was going to have to give something up.I thought I was going to have to compromise my life and everything I spent years working towards. And then I realized (through lots of intentional study and work) that I could have the success I always dreamed of having…And I could have it by rewiring my brain. I went to school to study the way our brains are wired and this is what I found out…Our brains are set to autopilot the thoughts we repeatedly tell ourselves, and our brains are wired to keep us safe and familiar.That being said,I decided to challenge the way our brains are wired and I came up with my own method of rewiring our brains for our advantage. And I teach those science, brain-based methods in my Epic Success Acad

I’ve had so many clients tell me that making money is hard.  I’ve had other clients tell me that making a lot of money is bad.  I’ve seen client after client tell me that before Epic Success Academy, they would sabotage their business success with their self-limiting and self-sabotaging thinking and beliefs.  And my favorite thing is… They didn’t stay in that thinking! They decided to take their thoughts captive, do the work around their thoughts, and finally create the success they dreamed of having.  In this week’s episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with four of my Epic Success Academy members: Porsche Parcher, Shelly Webb, Jean Harville, and Joe Sova.  These four incredible members have had incredible breakthroughs and transformations in their lives and businesses because of the Epic Success Academy, and they’re sharing their stories with you!
