In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Ep187. The Power of Receiving: How You’re Unconsciously Blocking the Wealth and Freedom You Want. 25:18

منذ 4 أيام25:18

25:18

Send me a Text Message! Many people struggle to receive. Whether it’s wealth, love, success, or support, there’s often an internal block that keeps what they desire just out of reach. In this episode, Mike Kitko explores the connection between mindset, heartset, and the ability to receive fully. He dives deep into why so many feel unworthy, undeserving, or like they have to earn everything before they can have it. True abundance comes when a person aligns their thoughts, beliefs, and emotions with what they want, rather than unconsciously repelling it. If you’ve ever felt uncomfortable accepting help, opportunities, or even compliments, this episode will challenge you to open your heart and finally allow in what you’ve been waiting for. Key Takeaways Mindset and heartset work together—thoughts and beliefs direct what you create, while emotions determine what you attract. Most people unconsciously block receiving because they don’t feel worthy, significant, or capable of holding what they desire. It’s not better to give than to receive—giving and receiving are equally important, and resistance to receiving is resistance to abundance. Struggle, over-effort, and constantly trying to prove yourself keep you from allowing what you want to flow in effortlessly. The gap between what you want and what you have is created by your own perception of what you deserve and are ready for. Notable Quotes “If you don’t feel worthy of wealth, love, or success, you will unconsciously block it—even when it’s right in front of you.” “Your thoughts and beliefs are the prayers for what you want, but your emotions are the magnet that draws it in.” “The discomfort you feel when someone gives you something is the exact thing that’s keeping you from receiving at higher levels.” “You don’t take action to create—creation happens when you get clear. You take action to receive.” “You don’t have to earn, prove, or struggle to deserve more. You just have to open yourself to receive it.” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Click here to access details about the August 22-23, 2025 in-person Choose Your Destiny Live Intensive just outside of St. Louis, MO.

Ep186. Personal Power is the Ultimate Wealth: How to Build Inner Strength and External Success. 27:08

منذ 11 يومًا27:08

27:08

Send me a Text Message! Personal power isn’t something external—it’s the ability to trust, believe in, and fully own who you are from the inside out. In this episode, Mike Kitko shares his personal journey from self-destruction and internal bankruptcy to radical self-mastery and empowerment. He breaks down the four voices that shape your life—three that disempower you and one that fuels your highest potential. Most people try to chase wealth, success, and external validation to cover up deep-seated feelings of insecurity, inadequacy, and insignificance, but true power comes from dissolving these inner conflicts, not masking them. If you’ve ever felt like you’re not enough, not worthy, or stuck in patterns of self-doubt and struggle, this episode will challenge you to look within and step into the highest version of yourself. Key Takeaways Your external world is a reflection of your internal state. If you don’t feel powerful inside, no amount of wealth, success, or validation will change that. The three voices of survival mode—Insecurity, Inadequacy, and Insignificance—keep you trapped in fear and self-doubt. Recognizing them is the first step toward dissolving them. The voice of inspiration is the only voice that leads to true power. It tells you that you are enough, worthy, and capable of anything you desire. Personal power comes from self-mastery. Healing internal conflicts and rewriting the stories you tell yourself is how you unlock real freedom, wealth, and success. You were not put on this earth to play small. The world needs you to step into your power and make an impact. Notable Quotes “Personal power isn’t built by chasing success—it’s built by mastering yourself.” “Insecurity, inadequacy, and insignificance are the voices that keep you small. When you silence them, you become unstoppable.” “Nothing outside of you can fix what’s happening inside of you. If you don’t believe in yourself now, no achievement or external success will change that.” “True freedom, wealth, and success are unlocked when you own who you are and step fully into your personal power.” “Are you personally powerful, or are you still living in the feelings of insecurity, inadequacy, and insignificance?” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Click here to access details about the February 21-22, 2025 in-person Choose Your Destiny Live Intensive just outside of St. Louis, MO.

Ep185. The Illusion of Control: Why Trying to Control the Future is Keeping You Stuck. 27:05

منذ 18 يومًا27:05

27:05

Send me a Text Message! In this episode of the Inner Wealth Podcast, we dive deep into control programs—the subconscious mechanisms we develop to avoid pain, stress, and failure. These hidden patterns shape how we think, act, and make decisions, often without us even realizing it. Whether it’s the need for perfection, overthinking every decision, or trying to control how others perceive us, these behaviors create an illusion of safety while keeping us stuck. Mike explores how unfamiliarity, uncertainty, and unpredictability trigger control programs and how to break free from them. He shares personal experiences, practical insights, and a powerful mindset shift to help you trust life, embrace the unknown, and create real freedom. Key Takeaways Control programs are rooted in fear. They exist because we haven’t built trust in ourselves, life, or our ability to handle uncertainty. The most common control programs: Perfectionism – Believing that if we get everything right, we can avoid failure or rejection. Overthinking and overanalyzing – Trying to mentally control the future by planning for every possible outcome. Trying to control the future – Seeking certainty before taking action, convinced that perfect planning eliminates risk. Isolation and withdrawal – Avoiding vulnerability by pulling away from others to maintain a false sense of control. Controlling the way others perceive you – Managing how you are seen to avoid judgment, rejection, or disapproval. Control doesn’t create safety—it creates stress. The more we try to control life, the more exhausted and disconnected we become. Freedom comes from surrender. Learning to trust the unpredictable nature of life is the key to peace, joy, and real success. Notable Quotes "Control programs don’t make life easier—they just make you feel like you’re avoiding disaster. But in reality, they’re keeping you stuck in a cycle of fear." "Perfectionism, overthinking, and trying to control how people see you don’t actually protect you. They just keep you playing small." "If you don’t trust life, you’ll spend all your time rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic instead of actually living." "You’ve survived every challenge you’ve faced so far. So why are you still afraid of the unknown?" "Life isn’t fragile. Your lack of trust in life is what makes it feel fragile."

Ep184. Work-Life Integration: Designing a Business That Fuels Your Soul with Mike and Angie. 22:33

منذ 25 يومًا22:33

22:33

Send me a Text Message! In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, Mike and Angie share reflections from the Turks and Caicos, where they’re living out their dream life of integrating work, travel, and personal growth. They delve into their journey from chaos and struggle in 2016 to building a life centered on intentionality, clarity, and commitment to their vision. The couple explores topics such as overcoming societal conditioning, shifting perspectives on work and income, and creating a life of joy, freedom, and alignment. This episode showcases how dreams can become reality when you release fear, stay committed, and trust the creative power within you. Key Takeaways: Clarity Creates Your Dream Life: Mike and Angie emphasize the importance of getting crystal clear about what you want. Their dream life began with a clear vision developed during a three-day workshop in 2016. Work-Life Integration is Key: Instead of seeking balance, they focus on blending their passions, business, and lifestyle seamlessly, creating harmony rather than separation. Letting Go of Fear and Doubt: Releasing fear and limiting beliefs is crucial to stepping into your full potential and manifesting the life you desire. Commitment Drives Success: Staying committed to your vision, even during setbacks, is essential for seeing your dreams through to reality. The Power of Inner Alignment: Your external world reflects your inner beliefs. Aligning your thoughts and emotions with your vision allows abundance, freedom, and fulfillment to flow naturally. Notable Quotes: "Vacation used to be an escape from life because we didn’t love the life we were living." "Clarity is the first step to creating anything you want—without it, you’ll stay stuck in survival mode." "Every time fear or doubt shows up, it’s an invitation to release it and grow stronger." "Your business and life should feel as good on the inside as they look on the outside." "When you trust your inner creative power, you can create anything in this lifetime."

Ep183: Understanding the Gap Between How You Feel and How the World Sees You. 23:37

منذ عام واحد23:37

23:37

Send me a Text Message! In this episode, Mike dives into the powerful insights of natal astrology and the interplay between his Leo Sun and Capricorn Moon to explore the dynamics of inner and outer alignment. Using personal stories, he shares how these two energies—one vibrant, expressive, and passionate, the other reserved, driven, and pragmatic—have influenced his life and the way he’s perceived by the world. This conversation isn’t just about astrology; it’s a call to action for deeper self-awareness. Mike invites listeners to examine the gap between how they feel inside and how others experience them, and to use tools like the Soul Sciences to transcend internal conflicts and live in alignment with their truest selves. Key Takeaways - Inner and Outer Worlds Can Conflict. Your inner experience might not match how others perceive you, and exploring this gap is key to alignment. - The Power of Self-Awareness. Understanding your astrological design can reveal why you think, feel, and act the way you do. - Balance Between Expression and Responsibility. Your natural energy might pull you in different directions, but harmonizing these forces unlocks your full potential. - People Feel Your Energy. Authenticity resonates; how you show up impacts how others experience your presence and energy. - Your Unique Design is a Gift. Tools like natal astrology, Human Design, and Gene Keys offer pathways to uncovering the layers of who you are and what drives you. Notable Quotes “Your Sun sign is how the world sees you. Your Moon sign is how you feel inside.” “Use your strengths, but don’t let them define you. Transcend the conflict and harmonize the gifts within.” “When you align with your true energy, people feel it. They experience the love, passion, and authenticity you radiate.” “You are not your emotional state. You are here to live as your brightest self.” “Self-awareness isn’t just a concept—it’s the gateway to living a life aligned with your highest potential.” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Click here to access details about the February 21-22, 2025 in-person Choose Your Destiny Live Intensive just outside of St. Louis, MO.

Ep180. Align Your Heart's and Mind's Desire to Realize Your Most Authentic Life. 26:33

منذ عام واحد26:33

26:33

Send me a Text Message! In this episode, we explore the powerful concept of aligning your heart and mind to create the life you truly desire. Misalignment between what your mind thinks you want and what your heart genuinely desires creates internal resistance, making it harder to achieve your goals. When your heart and mind are fully aligned, you step into a state of clarity, certainty, and commitment, allowing you to take inspired action effortlessly. This alignment eliminates the struggle, enabling you to manifest your desires with ease. Discover how to dissolve the gap between wanting and having and step into your full personal power. Key Takeaways Heart-Mind Alignment is Key: True clarity comes from merging what your heart deeply desires with the focus of your mind. Internal Resistance Blocks Progress: Resistance isn’t external; it arises from misalignment between your mind and heart. Let Go of Wanting: The state of wanting signals disbelief. Releasing want shifts you into a state of allowing and receiving. Inspired Action Matters: Taking action from a place of certainty and alignment amplifies your power and eliminates struggle. Your Inner World Shapes Your Outer World: When your internal state is aligned, your external reality naturally follows. Notable Quotes “When your heart and mind are in lockstep, the gap between your current circumstances and your desires dissolves.” “As long as you want what you want, you cannot have it. Letting go of want is the key to receiving.” “Resistance is never external. It exists within you, and aligning your heart and mind eliminates it.” “You don’t need massive action to create success. You need inspired action from a place of inner certainty.” “When you achieve alignment, you stop chasing and start allowing.” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Click here to access details about the January 10-11, 2025 in-person Choose Your Destiny Vision Intensive just outside of St. Louis, MO.

By learning to fully receive—from compliments to material gifts to love—we open ourselves to greater harmony, abundance, and fulfillment. Discover how your ability to receive impacts every area of your life and how balancing giving and receiving can transform your relationships, finances, and sense of self-worth. Key Takeaways Receiving is as Noble as Giving: Society glorifies giving, but receiving is equally important for balance and fulfillment. Your Beliefs Shape Your Ability to Receive: Limiting beliefs about worthiness or guilt can block you from fully receiving the goodness life has to offer. Receiving Enhances Relationships: Embracing the act of receiving allows others to pour into you, deepening mutual connection and trust. Imbalance Leads to Burnout: Over-giving without allowing yourself to receive creates unnecessary sacrifice and stress. Receiving Impacts Every Area of Life: Your ability to receive compliments, love, and support mirrors how you receive financially, socially, and relationally. Notable Quotes “It is not better to give than to receive. Giving and receiving are equals.” “If you can’t fully receive a compliment, there’s likely much more goodness in life you’re not allowing yourself to experience.” “How you show up in one area of life—giving or receiving—mirrors how you show up in every area.” “We are not here to be martyrs. We are here to give and receive in harmony.” “Allowing yourself to receive is not selfish; it’s essential for balance and fulfillment.” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Other Links and Resources: Click here to visit our website to access free tools and resources, our Meditation Bundle, upcoming events, and our coaching service offerings.

Ep177. Awareness, Forgiveness, and the Hidden Benefits of Your Every Choice. 28:44

منذ عام واحد28:44

28:44

Send me a Text Message! In this episode, we explore the profound idea that there are no truly bad people, only individuals operating from the shadows of their consciousness. Every choice we make, whether productive or destructive, stems from a perceived benefit tied to our internal programming. Using insights from systems like Gene Keys, we examine the journey from shadow states to higher levels of consciousness and self-awareness. This episode challenges you to look inward, forgive yourself and others, and understand the hidden benefits behind your choices as part of your spiritual evolution. Key Takeaways: Shadows Aren’t Who You Are: Shadow states are temporary conditions, not permanent identities. They reflect unprocessed pain and programming, not the essence of a person’s soul. Every Choice Has a Perceived Benefit: Even seemingly destructive choices are made because they offer some form of self-protection or perceived advantage in the moment. Your Growth is Inevitable: The spiritual journey is about moving from shadow to gift, and from gift to the highest state of consciousness. This evolution happens as you gain awareness and courage to look inward. Forgive Yourself and Others: Everyone is doing the best they can with their current level of consciousness and awareness. Understanding this fosters compassion and healing. Replace Old Patterns with New Awareness: As you uncover the hidden benefits behind your destructive behaviors, you can replace them with healthier, more aligned actions. Notable Quotes: “There’s no such thing as a bad person—only people operating from corrupted programming and shadow behaviors.” “Every choice you’ve ever made was rooted in a perceived benefit, even if it was destructive.” “At the soul level, you are infinite, eternal, and nothing but love. Shadows are temporary distortions, not your true essence.” “Forgive yourself for the choices you made to survive, and give yourself permission to evolve.” “No one wakes up and says, ‘I want to ruin today.’ Everyone is doing the best they can with the awareness they have.” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Other Links and Resources: Click here to visit our website to access free tools and resources, our Meditation Bundle, upcoming events, and our coaching service offerings.

Send me a Text Message! In this deeply reflective episode, Mike takes us on a journey through the five most meaningful days a human being can experience. Some of these days are universal—everyone will experience them—but others are reserved for those willing to dive deeper into their spiritual journey and awaken to higher levels of consciousness. From the miracle of birth to the realization of purpose, the understanding of living in the matrix, and the liberation that comes from disconnecting your internal state from external circumstances, Mike shares transformative insights and personal stories that will inspire you to see your life through a new lens. This episode is a call to remember who you truly are—a divine creator—and to embrace the profound meaning behind each of these five days. Key Takeaways: You Are On Time and On Purpose: You are not a coincidence or mistake. You are a vital piece of the cosmic puzzle, created with specific gifts and a unique mission. The Matrix is Real: Most people live in a reactive state, but awakening to the truth of the matrix allows you to see that your external reality reflects your internal state. Purpose is the Game-Changer: Realizing and embracing your purpose is a profound spiritual awakening that aligns your life with meaning and fulfillment. Untriggerable Power: Disconnecting your internal state from external circumstances leads to emotional freedom and the ability to consciously create your life. Graduation Day is Not the End: The day your physical body dies is not an ending but a transition to the next chapter of your soul’s journey. Notable Quotes: “You are not a coincidence or a mistake. You are on time and on purpose.” “The world you see is a reflection of who you are, not the reality that exists.” “Your purpose is your cosmic destiny—it’s what you were born to do, and no one else can fulfill it.” “True freedom comes when you stop allowing external circumstances to dictate your internal state.” “Death is not the end; it’s graduation day. It’s the beginning of the next chapter of your soul’s journey.” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Other Links and Resources: Click here to visit our website to access free tools and resources, our Meditation Bundle, upcoming events, and our coaching service offerings.

Send me a Text Message! In this Thanksgiving episode, Mike Kitko reflects on the power of gratitude and its role in cultivating freedom , joy , and fulfillment . Through personal stories and reflections from his travels, Mike contrasts the material wealth of first-world countries with the deep spiritual richness often found in places with fewer resources.

Freedom Comes from Within: Regardless of your circumstances, your internal quality of life is a reflection of your thoughts, emotions, and gratitude.

Ep173. Reclaiming Personal Power Through Intuition and Self-Trust. 26:04

Send me a Text Message! In this episode, Mike Kitko shares his deeply personal journey of learning to trust himself after years of self-rejection and disempowerment. He explores how societal conditioning and early beliefs taught him to hand over his personal power and how he reclaimed it through self-mastery. Mike also discusses the profound role of Soul Sciences —Astrology, Human Design, Gene Keys, and Soul Contracts—in validating our inner knowing and amplifying self-trust. This episode is a masterclass in reconnecting with your intuition, taking back your authority, and aligning with your true purpose. Key Takeaways: The Roots of Self-Mistrust: Early conditioning and societal expectations often teach us to doubt our inner wisdom, leading to a cycle of self-rejection. The Power of Reclaiming Personal Authority: Trusting your intuition is a revolutionary act that allows you to live authentically and confidently. The Role of the Soul Sciences: Tools like Astrology, Human Design, and Gene Keys don’t tell you who you are but validate the inner wisdom you already possess. The Journey of Self-Mastery: Transforming your life requires peeling back layers of fear, conditioning, and disempowering beliefs to uncover your authentic self. Trusting the Process: Intuition might not lead to immediate rewards but always guides you toward the lessons and growth you need. Notable Quotes: “Freedom doesn’t come from knowing every answer—it comes from trusting yourself to navigate the unknown.” “Inside of you, there’s a knower, a voice, a soul that knows exactly what’s perfect for you. You just have to listen.” “The Soul Sciences didn’t tell me who I was—they gave me permission to trust who I’ve always been.” “When you trust your intuition, even the challenges become purposeful steps toward your higher potential.” “The journey of self-mastery isn’t about perfection; it’s about revealing new layers of authenticity every day.” Music Credit: " What's Left of Me " by Wes Hoffman & Friends Links and Resources: Register for the Introduction to the Soul Sciences webinar here!
