Is your story holding you back?
The stories you tell yourself have amazing power in your life. They are how you identify and define yourself.
The only thing that stands in the way of your success is the bulls#it story you tell yourself why you can’t have it. – Jordan Belfort.
What I mean by stories are literally the stories you tell about your life, and the summary thoughts and ideas that replay in your head. What are the key memories, funny events, sad moments, inspiring moments and challenging moments that you remember, replay and retell? Are your stories based in the past? Or are they stories of the future? Are the stories of your life that you focus on tragedies, comedies or inspiration?
Struggle Stories
If you are struggling to achieve success (however you define it) in any areas of your life, take a good look at the stories you tell yourself about it. Are you running an “I’m not good enough” story, or an “I’ll never achieve it” story, or a “why bother” story? Or something similar? If you’re struggling, I guarantee you have a disempowering story or two running in your head.
Your stories are a way to tap into your unconscious mind, and also a way to shift your unconscious mind and how you identify yourself and your potential and possibilities.
Are you the hero in your stories? Or are you the victim? Do people do wrong by you, and cheat you? Is the world a fair place? Or is it dangerous and out to get you when you least expect it?
When you shift your stories from disempowering past based stories to empowering future based stories, then you open up your opportunities and possibilities.
The truth is that we all have “negative” stories or challenging moments in our lives, and we all have “positive” or empowering moments of success. In equal measure. Which stories you choose to focus on has a massive impact on your outlook.
Danger of living inside your stories.
Sometimes people get so attached to their stories, they forget to live in the present moment. Constantly replaying movies in your mind of past events, negative or positive, or even future dreams stops you living in the now. Your stories don’t exist except in your head. So notice when they are holding you back and actively re-write the stories, so that they support and empower you, then simply close the book and notice what’s going on right now in your world. What can you be grateful for NOW?
What can you feel, see, hear, taste, smell now?

“We couldn’t recommend Kylie highly enough.”
“Having ongoing training is essential for our team and our business. It’s important to look after the people that look after others. Kylie has the experience, professionalism and knowledge to engage with our team and help them understand about human behaviour and why people do what they do. In the wellness and health industry it’s a different sales and service delivery and it’s imperative to keep on top of these understandings to perform at our best to help others. We couldn’t recommend Kylie high enough.”
- Amanda Bracks - Owner Soulful Fitness (2019 Fitness Australia Boutique of the Year)
“She’s the best speaker they’ve ever seen.”
“I have worked with Kylie over many years. She has helped me as a Business Mindset Coach, as a motivational speaker for my gym clients at both Vision Personal Training & now at Flow Athletic. I bring her in to train my Personal Training teams in mindset, communication and how to coach our clients better and excel in our own personal mastery as fitness leaders. At my recent Fitness Business event, my gym owner colleagues were blown away by her talk, saying she is the best speaker they have ever seen. After every event we always get rave reviews about her talks and training. I highly recommend Kylie’s work as a coach & speaker.”

“So many things are just falling into my lap.”
“I finished the Spiritual Awakening Course yesterday and I found it truly amazing. An incredible next step after our coach training. I feel so much more enlightened and “opened-up”. It has really opened my eyes to the power of the universe and the energy flowing in each of us. I loved it – thank you.
I am feeling so lucky at the moment. So many things are just falling into my lap. I visualise it and set my intention to manifest it and it comes. Things such as getting more clients, needing help to put my business online, not knowing how to get known in my local community etc. Courses / insights / clients have just fallen into my lap at the right time.”
Of course I am still learning and growing, but the course has really helped. Thank you”

“I have never been this happy or powerful.”
“Before I signed up with Kylie I had a busy PT business… I was exhausted and on the brink of burnout and no matter how hard I tried, I had reached a ceiling in my income that I just couldn’t break through. After completing my NLP Coaching certification, I found my true voice and the energy of my business has been completely transformed. I’ve created an online program, up-levelled my entire business and totally smashed my previous income goals. I make decisions more confidently and I can help my clients create change in their life even faster. On a personal level, NLP gave me the inner strength to leave a toxic situation and rebuild myself which lead to me discovering the love of my life! Today I am living the life that I’ve always wanted – but just hadn’t been able to put into words. I have never been this happy or this powerful. If you want to manifest the life of your dreams I would not hesitate to reach out for help from Kylie.”
- Danni Vee - Women's Health Coach, My Fit Tribe
“I’ve noticed big improvements in my finances and client retention”
I signed up with Kylie because I knew that to have a bigger effect as a PT I needed to improve my understanding of how the mind works. Through NLP Coach training I now have great coaching techniques that break through all sorts of negative behaviour patterns. I’ve noticed big improvements in all areas of my life including my own personal finances and my client retention. This has allowed me new freedom to work on scaling my business and helping even more people with less one on one time from myself. The coach training has given me the ability to fully unlock the power of your mindset and those that don’t have this skill are only tapping into a small amount of their potential.

“Magick happens every time!”
This morning I had a kick-ass coaching session with Kylie Ryan. We’ve been working together for a couple of months, and she’s the perfect person to help me integrate the rapid transformations I go through regularly. I’d been getting this vision of my fully mature creative and entrepreneurial self. His discipline, commitment, and command of wealth was 10x what mine is now, but it wasn’t really about money for him. Our coaching sessions usually roll with me saying, “Kylie, I want to be, do, and have EVERYTHING” and Kylie helping me find the archetypes and parts that aren’t integrated and bringing them together. MAGICK HAPPENS EVERY TIME.
