    Week 1 Discussion: Awareness & Affirmation

    Posted by Dr. Stacy on August 4, 2025 at 9:01 am

    Hi Everyone. Let’s use this space to share our experiences in the challenge, week by week. This week, we are building our awareness of negative self-talk, replacing it with a positive affirmation and noticing the impact.

    The Universe sent me the opportunity to put this skill into practice yesterday when I carelessly put my business credit card instead of my debit card into an ATM for my bank. I proceeded with the debit card PIN, which was rejected twice before I received the message that my card had been blocked. I immediately went into panic. I assumed that my credit card was now completely unusable and that I would be having to undo the damage with trying to get a new credit card and notifying all of the services I use to run my business of the change. It felt daunting to have to deal with this just a couple days before going on vacation where I promised myself I was not going to do any work.

    What followed was a lot of frustration with myself for being so careless. “How could I be so stupid!” AND then I remembered the challenge. I took a few deep breaths and found the following: “Things are still working out. Life is always for me”. When I arrived at my destination to visit family, I was able to be present for a few minutes before contacting my bank, who informed me that all was well. The message that the ATM gave me about my card being blocked was limited to it being blocked from trying to take out money from the ATM, not for anything else. What a relief!

    The affirmation did not change the ultimate outcome, but it certainly did help me get off the path of self-criticism and get regrounded in trust that all can and will be figured out.

    My invitation to everyone here is to share at least one experience of reversing or stopping negative thoughts that might arise in your day and the affirmation you used to turn it all around.

    I look forward to experiencing this journey with you

    Warmly,

    Dr. Stacy🙏🏽

DESIGN YOUR LIFE COMMUNITY

CODE OF CONDUCT

(our basic expectations for how to be in this place)

Welcome to The Design Your Life Community!

We are so happy that you decided to join us in this sacred space.

The phrase ‘sacred space’ might sound a bit formal and serious, like you need to mind your manners and take off your hat before you come in. Let me assure you that we are not that formal around here. But, we do think it is important to pause and recognize that this place is special and one we hope you will cherish. As such, it does require us to get centred in order to show up as our highest selves. Maintaining a loving atmosphere filled with compassion, empathy and respect is the secret sauce that is fundamentally important for all of us to learn, grow and heal in ways that serve us and others.

Here are our basic expectations for everyone here:

HOW LEARNING MODES WORK

You can select a Scheduled Class start date now, and when it has at least 6 and no more than 12 enrolled members the class start date will be official. If the class you choose doesn’t fill, you will be automatically enrolled in the next start date available (usually the next week), until a full class is scheduled. We do this to accommodate individual preferences and to keep class size small and effective.
