What Your Limiting Beliefs Are Costing You, And How To Overcome Them

With Shelly Lefkoe

Download MP3

The beliefs we have about ourselves and others often confine the way we see the world. Many of us get caught up in mistaking our beliefs for facts and look for external evidence to prove them right, or at least keep them alive. With the right tools, however, we can become aware of the patterns that don’t serve us and feel liberated as the creators of our own lives. 

Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with international speaker and philanthropist Shelly Lefkoe to talk about the top ways our belief systems hold us back from living our most fulfilling lives. Dhru and Shelly share their personal stories about overcoming their limiting beliefs and how understanding where they come from is key to letting them go. 

Shelly Lefkoe is the cofounder of the Lefkoe Institute, a San Francisco Bay Area firm whose mission is “to significantly improve the quality of life on the planet.” Shelly has helped thousands of clients worldwide recreate their lives by ridding themselves of a wide variety of problems, including phobias, relationships that never seem to work, violence, procrastination, unwillingness to confront people, health and wellness issues, and sexual dysfunction. Her clients have eliminated emotional patterns such as fear, hostility, shyness, anxiety, depression, worry about what people think of them, and a negative sense of themselves. Her programs have reached over 150,000 people worldwide, and her work has been featured on The Today Show, Leeza, and many other media outlets. Shelly’s personal vision is to transform the way people parent, and she believes that if we raise a conscious generation of children, violence will end, people will treat each other with respect and dignity, and life on this planet will be better for everyone. She is the author of Parenting the Lefkoe Way, a manual for raising confident kids.
