Sometimes change happens super gradually, and sometimes in lightning strikes. Ryan’s was definitely the latter.
Ten years ago, on a seemingly random walk through London, Ryan Mathie experienced a profound breakdown that became a huge breakthrough.
Since then, he’s been incredibly motivated to help other people see how much they’re getting in their own way (like he was, pre-breakthrough), and help them set themselves free. He really LOVES busting through blocks, so we challenged him to help our listeners bust through their oldest, crustiest problems.
We picked submissions from six listeners for Ryan to tackle, and he totally delivered. We got into questions like:
- “I sabotage every job and relationship I enter into. How can I get out of this vicious cycle?”
- “How can I stop feeling guilty for saying ‘no’ and having boundaries?”
- “How can I overcome the fear and perfectionism that keep me from pursuing my creativity full-out?”
- “Should I stay in my 22-year-long marriage? Or should I call it quits?”
- “How do I move past ‘just getting by’ when it comes to money and actually thrive?”
We also got into what almost every submission we got had in common and what’s often at the root of our most difficult blocks, regardless of what it may look like on the surface.

This was great! Thank you Rachel, kristen and Ryan! As Ryan was addressing “W” a question came to mind for “W” to ask herself. And that is – “Is there anyone in my life who would have a problem with me succeeding?” We have a tendency to lower our awareness to be associated with others. It’s the ultimate trap. It is essential to find others who not only want us to succeed, but demand it, in order to make a better world. So if we’re people-pleasing those who want to keep us small, it’s torture for those who want greatness.
This is a great question for W, Jeanne! You’re so right. Surrounding ourselves with people who’d prefer us to stay small is torture!
