In episode 24 of Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Marlowe welcomes Kayma Wolday and Olivia Rose Thomas, co-hosts of Inspired Delusions, to discuss shadow work, authenticity, and self-discovery. Kayma and Olivia discuss how they left traditional careers to recognize what they want, rewire their mindsets, and regulate their nervous systems.

Trusting the universe requires you to be authentic. One of the key elements of trusting the universe is the willingness to be open to its guidance. Olivia shares her journey from skepticism to belief, highlighting how she began to ask the universe for help and set intentions. Kayma explains how she has faced moments of anxiety, and she had to remind herself that her beliefs are not the same as those around her, and she has to keep reminding herself of the power and truth of her delusions and goals.

On Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Kayma Wolday and Olivia Rose Thomse, hosts of Immspired Delusions, introduce their 3R formula—Recognize, Rewire, and Regulate—as a practical approach to personal development.

1. Recognize: This first step involves becoming aware of limiting beliefs and understanding what one truly desires. Engaging in shadow work is a crucial part of this process, as it helps individuals identify the hidden aspects of themselves that may be holding them back.

2. Rewire: Once individuals recognize their limiting beliefs, the next step is to rewire their subconscious mind. This involves challenging old narratives and replacing them with empowering beliefs that align with one's goals.

3. Regulate: The final step focuses on regulating the nervous system to release old beliefs and embrace new ones. This can involve practices such as mindfulness, meditation, or other techniques that promote emotional balance.

By following the 3R formula, Recognize, Rewire, and Regulate, and embracing shadow work and navigating challenges with a growth mindset, you can embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and ultimately leading to a more authentic life.
