Visionista, I am so glad you stopped by today!

Welcome to Inside Edge! In this first episode of Influential Shedding, Dr. Yanina helps Visionistas identify the invisible influences—family expectations, industry pressure, social norms, and internal wiring—that quietly shape how you lead, price, and show up. This episode guides you to notice the layers that no longer serve you and gives gentle tools to update those scripts so your choices reflect your values, not someone else’s checklist.

Reflection Prompts:

  1. Family / Generational:

    • “In our family, ___.”

    • “I must always ___.”

    • “I’m the one who ___.”

  2. School / Education:

    • “Credentials equal ___.”

    • “Never ___ or you’ll fall behind.”

    • “I’m the over-prepared ___.”

  3. Work / Industry Norms:

    • “Hustle proves ___.”

    • “Always be available for ___.”

    • “I’m ‘always on’ even when ___.”

  4. Mentors / Peers / Social:

    • “Success only looks like ___.”

    • “Post like ___ to matter.”

    • “Curated me hides ___ and highlights ___.”

  5. Temperament / Wiring:

    • "Because I’m wired this way, I must ___.”

    • “Push past limits even when ___.”

    • “I’m fine when actually ___.”

    ▷▷▷ Circle the two that hit hardest. Those are your starting points.

This Week’s Mindful Strategies:

  1. The Layer Map (Belief, Demand, or Mask)

  2. The Parts Map

This Week’s Action Steps:

  1. Circle One Layer: Pick the influence that drains you most.

  2. Write a One-Line Update: Replace the old belief with your new truth and place it where you’ll see it daily (laptop, mirror, wallpaper).
