Intuitive Mentor Mom: Strategies for Life Empowerment, Self Love and Gratitude for Single Moms
33: Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs: Snap the "F" Out of Your Story!
In this powerful episode of Intuitive Mentor Mom, I share how a triggering moment during the Texas floods (as I'm a Texas resident), unexpectedly reopened unresolved trauma from 9/11. What followed was a deep realization about the self-limiting beliefs we carry, and how to finally release them.
If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like you're living someone else's story, this episode will help you reconnect with your intuition and inner truth. I explore how unhealed trauma, fear-based narratives, and emotional triggers create invisible blocks that hold us back from living the life we truly deserve.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- How the recent Texas floods sparked a healing breakthrough by revealing buried PTSD and emotional trauma
- Why unresolved trauma resurfaces—and how to work with it through self-awareness
- The truth about limiting beliefs and the thin "veil" that keeps us from rewriting our stories
- How to reclaim your personal power through intuitive mindset shifts
- Why fear, procrastination, and self-doubt are rooted in false narratives
- Actionable steps to shift your energy, release emotional blocks, and call in a life of alignment
- How declaring what you truly want (and deserve) can attract opportunities you didn’t think were possible
This episode is for all those on a healing journey, and anyone ready to break generational cycles, rewrite their story, and align with a higher frequency of truth and empowerment.

In today's episode we are talking about snap the F out of it. Snap the F out of your story. Snap the F out of your story. And what's your story? I don't know, but I'm going to share with you a story that I had that I needed to snap the F out and, funny enough, we're going to get right into it right now. So here we go. Welcome back to the Intuitive Mentor Mom podcast, where we explore strategies for practicing more self-love, gratitude and finding new ways to empower ourselves in this ever-changing healing adventure of life happening for us. I'm your host, tara Michelle. Let's get started. Welcome back to Intuitive Mentor Mom the podcast. That's all about how life is happening for us not to us and who are you going to be in the matter. So I want to welcome all of you back to the show.
Speaker 1:Before I go into this topic of snap the fuck out of it. Snap the fuck out of your story of it. Snap the fuck out of your story. Before I get into that topic, I want to say that how all of this came about. This last week was a dear friend of mine sharing a story that became pretty. I want to say it was like a very viral story about the flood, the floods here in Texas, and so first I wanna say my heart truly goes out to every single family person, anyone who's been impacted by this flood, the floods we've had several and there are no words. There are no words. There are no words that you can say for the loss and the devastation. You know, I didn't know any of those people, but I'm one degree separation from many of them and I think if there's anything that it can really wake you up to is how fragile life is, how planet Earth can shake us off at any second. And not going into any of the thoughts of the how it happened, it happened, it happened. There's nothing we can do about that. It happened.
Speaker 1:At this point, the devastation is so great that we, yes, is it important to look at other factors? Yes, but not right now. Right now, what's important is really getting the magnitude of one's life, your life, and how quickly it can end, or how quickly a loved one of yours could be gone. In a second You're just gone about your day and we often never think about that, you know, and this happens every day, we lose people every day. But there's something about the magnitude of nature at that level the power, and all you can do is hold on for the ride. You know, like I said, there's no words. It's a very sad time for everyone involved and my heart goes out to every family and that's all I can say. That's all I'm going to say. I feel like, I feel like anything I would try to say, it's it just, you can't, you can't. But here is what I'm going to say, here's what I'm going to go into, because that event, that event caused a dear friend of mine Just love this human being so much.
Speaker 1:He shared a story with me that truly rocked my world. Last Saturday I read that story. I couldn't put it down. And here's the funny thing I read that story, I couldn't put it down. And here's the funny thing. So him and I were texting in the morning and I said to him hey, my mission this weekend is all about raising my frequency. I'm going to raise my frequency this weekend.
Speaker 1:And, uh, right after that he sent me this story and my intention was that I was going to be in nature, you know, because I was. I was still feeling the sadness of what was happening. But he sent me the story and when I started reading the story. I hadn't even gotten out of bed yet, started reading the story and I broke down in tears as I read this story and my heart plummeted. I read this story and my heart plummeted and the heaviness and the rawness of the story and the reality and the realness of that story really cracked my heart open at a whole new level as I read every word in that story, feeling everything that all those people were feeling in that moment. It just it rocked me and I was pretty much on the floor emotionally at that point and I even reached out to him and I was like what prompted you to send that to me? And he said maybe you needed to feel whatever you're feeling. And he was right, because what that story did was unearth some PTSD that I had around 9-11.
Speaker 1:And I was in New York during 9-11. I was 20 blocks away. I would have been one of the people witnessing the first plane, but I forgot my computer so I had to go back up to my room and the colleague I was with watched it room and the colleague I was with watched it and that four days on that island were some of the scariest days of my life, many of our lives and that again was another traumatic, terrorizing, catastrophic event. Now it happened years and years ago, right, but, and I thought I dealt with it and I thought I was okay Do you know that movie Vice? That movie Vice in the beginning they have an opening scene and not even Michael Moore's movies have me feel the way that opening scene did and that opening scene, when I first saw that movie at the theater, kind of triggered me also. But reading that story, the play-by-play, took me back to the day of 9-11. And I can tell people the play-by-play and when I explain the play by play it's like I'm there, I feel it. But what I hadn't accessed was the depth of terror in my body and the fear and the sadness and the magnitude of which I was operating on top of all that to survive.
Speaker 1:So, without going deep into that story because it's an old one, my point in sharing today is snap the fuck out of your story. Okay, and this may occur insensitive, but I don't want it to occur insensitive. I want you to get where I'm coming from. Is your life is precious? This is it as far as we know. Yes, I'm somebody who will talk about past lives. I am that girl. I believe in it.
Speaker 1:But what I do know is what I don't know. I don't know what really will happen when we die and if we don't really know, except for those who have died and come back and even they don't really know everything because they only know to the part they got to. But what I do know is that so many people, people, decide of a fucking story that's limiting. It's limiting you, it's stopping you from living your fullest life and at any point in time, your life can be over in a second. Now, whether it's a split second because you had a quick split death, or you are fighting for your life in a rushing river with a bunch of debris in it and it's dark outside, or you're walking some running for your life, because two towers in a downtown city just went up in flames and came down and thousands of people have no idea what to do, and many of those people didn't even have a second. Their lives were over.
Speaker 1:And so I am saying today I had a moment where I snapped the fuck out of my story. Okay, so all of it triggered from this event of me reading this story, having this moment, going deep into some emotions that I was not aware, were still in my body, so deep that, out of the blue, another dear friend reached out to me and thank God he did, because I just needed to talk through where I was feeling and he was like, hey, just call it like it is, this is PTSD, because I was so. I couldn't believe how heavy my heart was and how heavy my body was. And so I went about my day and I allowed myself to feel all of those feelings, to feel all of those feelings. Then, all of a sudden, as I felt all those feelings, the stories began to creep up, the stories of how my life's going to go, the probable, predictable future, what will likely occur, la, la, la. I started going into these stories about what I'll never achieve, it's never going to happen, blah, blah, blah, literally. And as I saw those stories, I don't even know what happened. But I sat on my bed and I heard you are going to get out of those stories right now.
Speaker 1:Right now, as many of you know those of you who've listened to my show, you know a lot about, you know my gifts with clairvoyance and my ability to get these downloads. I see things, I feel things, I hear things. I had a message that day and the message was snap out of it. You have this life ahead of you and you get to say how it goes. How many episodes have I been talking about that? I get to say how it goes. You, listener, get to say how it goes. You are the creator of this world. You are, and this is what I'm hearing in my mind.
Speaker 1:And all of a sudden, as I'm sitting on my bed, I could see the thin layer of glass, the distorted view, the illusion of these stories, and I had these glasses on that. I was seeing my life through these glasses on that. I was seeing my life through, and if I kept those glasses on, this life that I was blah, blah, blah, yeah, yeah, yeah, like, yeah, that shit is going to happen. That shit is going to happen because you're putting it into action. You, miss Tara, are putting it into action with your thoughts, your emotion and now how you feel in this heaviness. This is where you snap out of it, because who I am is I'm somebody who tells people all the time. You can go, feel that, but do not attach a story to it. You can cry deep tears, you could cry and have the big like ugly cry, but don't you attach a single story to it. Allow it to release out of your body.
Speaker 1:So here I am, sitting on the edge of my bed and I'm hearing all this and all of a sudden I see this thin veil, like it's like. It's like a it's glass, like a plexiglass, right, but it's thinner than that. It's so thin that you can blow on it and the shit just shatters. That's how thin it is, but we live like it's 10 inches thick and we believe it. We believe it. We believe that. We believe it. We believe that it's not true. None of your stories are true, not even the good ones, because guess what? You can change those too. You are the architect of your life. Get that With your emotions, your feelings, your thoughts and the energy that fuels those emotions and those thoughts become real.
Speaker 1:In that moment I said okay, okay, okay. And all of a sudden I remembered I have this singing bowl. I have a singing bowl that was gifted to me like 20 years ago. And where does it sit? It sits on a shelf in my living room behind the shelf door. And I heard get that damn singing bowl right now. And I went and got that singing bowl and I started banging and like making the thing sing.
Speaker 1:Okay, because what I knew is that my cells needed a frequency upgrade in that moment and I also knew that I needed to clear myself out. I also knew that I needed to honor all those feelings that came up that day and I needed to honor the fact that I had not felt them in years and I had pushed them down, and I needed to honor all those who are still losing lives from those floods. I needed to honor all of that. And I also knew that I wanted to be very present to how fragile our lives can be, how quickly it can be over. And here I am wallowing in a story instead of living my life to its fullest. Why? Because I can. Does it mean I still might bump up against limiting beliefs or I'm never going to? Yes, I might bump up against them. I'm human. But here's what I'll say.
Speaker 1:I had this moment and shift of holy shit. I'm not going to keep thinking these thoughts. I'm not going to keep thinking these thoughts because I know when I think certain thoughts, I then see those results. I know that I've watched it play out multiple times in my life when I've had fear about my career or a job and I started getting scared. I promise you, those fears came real every damn time, every damn time.
Speaker 1:And so what I did that night? I sat on my bed and I had a straight conversation with God and I said you know what, god? Here is what I deserve. I deserve X, I deserve X, I deserve X, x, x and I will not have it any other way. This is what I say I'm gonna do, this is what I want to do and this is why. Because I deserve it and I am done with any of that other stuff. I'm done with it. It's over. I'm not going to repeat that cycle.
Speaker 1:I spoke in this direct tone that I'm having right now and I said various things in that tone to God, and then I clanged more on my singing bowl, I played with my cards, I cleared my energy and then I went to bed, played with my cards, I cleared my energy, and then I went to bed and I did work for my son, for myself, for our house, and I was like this is over. These stories that I'm playing with, which are ridiculous, they're done. I'm ready for the upgrade. God, and only I can say that, because the door is wide open, I'm the one who closes it with my thoughts, feelings or emotions. So the next morning wild I'm like a really miraculous thing occurred because I asked for it and I reconnected with somebody in a really great way and we had a beautiful conversation.
Speaker 1:And then this new side hustle that I'm doing called sold spaces where I'm aligning energy and homes and frequencies for realtors all of a sudden came about and I got clients that day All these things I began to ask and declare and say that I deserved, started opening up Things that I was like oh well, I don't have the time or it's not going to happen for me, and isn't that funny. People probably listen to this and be like you think like that. Yes, because I'm human, we all have our things and that's one of my things. I struggle with my own stories, like the rest of us, but I just said no more, I'm not going to do that story anymore. Let me create a new one and then I'll bump up against whatever challenges are in that new story, because there's going to be challenges. And so what I did that weekend? Actually all this week I've been talking to people, I've been working on this new side hustle. I've been pushing to create more in my current career.
Speaker 1:I am rebranding this podcast. I don't want to share it yet. I'm super excited about it. But I'm rebranding it because I really want that name to speak to the truth of who I am. And it isn't that I'm not an intuitive mentor mom. I am a mom. I am intuitive. I do mentor a lot of people my friends, family, people I care about and happy to support anybody who is looking for some support. But it's more than that, because who I am is more than that. Just like you, who you are is more than what you see.
Speaker 1:And I will say this I don't know where my life will go at this point, but I will say this I am not going to continue to repeat the things I've been repeating and I'm now getting very crystal clear in seeing patterns in my life and seeing them so clearly that I'm like oh yes, that's why this is happening. This is a pattern from seven or eight years ago and I'm just repeating the cycle. It just looks a little prettier this time. And I'm just repeating the cycle. It just looks a little prettier this time. So what are the choices I'm going to make?
Speaker 1:Who will I be and do I need to keep repeating this cycle, or would I like to explore and experience a new one? I'd like that new one, thank you, and I'd like it to be an upgrade, and I'd like it to be who I say I really am, who I am at my truth and my core, and I would like to remind myself that I can have anything I desire because I deserve it. And that is what I want you to hear. I want you to hear that you listener, whoever you are out there, that is who you are for you, you get to say those very things to yourself because you deserve it. You deserve everything, you desire Everything. It is there and yours for the having and receiving, and only we ourselves, with our monkey minds, get in the way of that receiving.
Speaker 1:And in that moment, when I made that declaration to God, I literally saw that veil open. It was like it just moved out of the way and I, if I could describe it, it was like. It was like. It was like things were more, more. What do you call that? I don't know. It was brighter. What do they call that Spectra vision? What was that called on the TV when color came? I don't know, but everything was in even brighter, more intense color and it felt light and it felt a little freer.
Speaker 1:And if there's anything I will say that's different about who I am today is I'm not letting those stories get in the way and stop me and allow me to procrastinate, and that's what I would do. I would procrastinate and, yes, I have to fight with the phone, meaning I have to fight against technology and its desire to have me doom scroll. I have to fight against technology and its desire to, you know, have me doom scroll. Right, that's always a constant battle, but what shifted in me is that I stopped being afraid to speak truth. I stopped being afraid to try new things. I stopped being afraid.
Speaker 1:What's there to be afraid of? What are you afraid of False events appearing real? What are you afraid of? That you're not doing, or that you're not saying, or who you're not being for either? A friend, a family member, your coworkers? What is it that you truly desire? That you say you want, that you're not willing to? Because I don't know. You're afraid to speak up. They might say no. Who cares if they say no, whatever it is that stops you. You're not a good fit, or maybe you don't think they'd choose you or whatever. Whatever it is, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, you know. So today I guess I'm going to share this like it's just a little ass kicking day Get the fuck out of your story, shatter it, break it, destroy it, dissolve it, kick it down. Kick it down. Imagine you're kicking this glass like it really is, like as thin as fucking paper. So if you kicked it, the thing would shatter, kick it down. Who will you be today for you? You, you only have one life that we're aware of. This is it? It can be washed away in seconds, literally. So that's my message today.
Speaker 1:I actually had so much going on this week and I was like, oh, I'm just going to repurpose a podcast. You know I don't not many people are listening, they're not going to care. Blah, blah, blah. Like that was what was in my head and I thought to myself girl, you have so much to share. No, just get on there, you don't need to write anything out. Get on and speak from your heart, speak from your truth and create the episode. And hey, by the way, the topic is like snap the fuck out of your story. Had a great conversation with two of my friends this week and we all snapped the fuck out of our stories and we just got real and, oh my God, all these things opened up for each one of us just got real. And oh my God, all these things opened up for each one of us. Each one of us had all of these things open up, which was amazing, and we snapped out of our story. Just snap out of it.
Speaker 1:I don't care how heavy your story is. If you want to hold onto it. You want to keep carrying it. You want to keep suffering it and suffering. Go for it. Let me know when you're done. Let me know when you're done suffering, because you know what. If you want to continue to suffer, all I will say is there's more for you to learn in the suffering. That's it. And you know what. I'll let you suffer, go for it, enjoy yourself, call me when you're done.
Speaker 1:You want to live? Kick the fucking story down. It's done and create a new one, upgrade that one, have a different outcome. That's what I did with mine. I had a different outcome. At the end of the story I was like, no, not that one. I want this outcome because I deserve that outcome and with this situation. I want this outcome because I deserve that outcome. I deserve it. Took me 53 years, 54 years however old I am, I don't know 54. Took me 54 years to figure that out, that I deserve it, and to have conviction that I deserve it at that level, and I want you to do the same because you deserve it. So go, live the life you deserve. Be the amazing man or woman that you are. Crush the shit out of things, beat your chest, wail into a pillow or wail out to the world whatever you got to do, but stand tall and be who you really are, because you are amazing and we can't be without you, because if we could, you wouldn't be here and you're here and we need you. And right now, my dog is licking my arm and they're making lots of noise and I'm so sorry. Okay, that's enough of me being on the little pedestal, but that is what happened this week.
Speaker 1:I thought it was important to share. Snap the F out of your story. I want to hear what you got out of this, what you heard, where you're at. Again, my heart goes out to all of those. This devastation of you know what? Any devastation around the planet? Yes, the flooding is intense and it has been horrific here, but there are things happening all over the world right now and my heart goes out to humanity. My heart goes out to humanity and I pray that we all continue to look inward and to continue to love and to release all these limiting beliefs, all these limiting stories I also talked about. You know how language is so damn limiting. Language just locks you in a box. Get out beyond the words and get into the space of love and feel deeply, feel it, experience it, express it, because this is it. You only have one life that we're aware of, so live it to your fullest. I love you.
Speaker 1:Thank you so much for tuning in this week. Every other week, sunday mornings at seven o'clock, I'm here. I don't know what we're talking about. Next week, like I said, I'm getting ready to rebrand, so we'll see.
