  • The philosopher Hannah Montana once famously pondered upon how life could be like a movie. In this Subconsciously Steel Maggie podcast episode, I agree with Montana, and raise her one more.

    We are all playing a character of some kind. Each of us has a "personality," or a pattern of traits which we identify with and label with the word "I." These collections of traits, memories, thoughts, feelings, habits, all play out on the individual movie screens of our lives, whether we are conscious or unconscious to our roles regarding reality creation. A lot of people are going through life absolutely hating the movie that's playing, and don't believe they can consciously choose a different "movie."

    Today I'm talking about exactly how you can select a better plot, write a new script, rehearse with the actors, and film the movie of your conscious choice, all in the quantum theater of your mind.

    I will quote another late 2000s icon and leave you to enjoy the podcast episode: "The rest is still unwritten." - Natasha Bedingfield.

    Let's get together on Instagram and TikTok!

  • Do you feel like you just can't find things you're genuinely "grateful for," without forcing the issue? Are you getting more and more frustrated with this allegedly "secret sauce" element to reality creation?

    If I had a dollar for every time I've run into that mental dead end! And when you listen to the majority of opinions on gratitude, about embodying the state of gratitude, the further you seem to run from simple peace of mind. "Why doesn't this come easy to me??" I get it man.

    How can you create what you want to experience from the mental space of not having it, and then add in the frustration of knowing that you're not in the "abundance state" and can't seem to get to it no matter how much you've been trying? The answer is, you don't! But we're going to change that today.

    With all the conflicting information and vague woo-woo LOA phrasing out there about gratitude, the solution I'm proposing today is to make a simple shift in wording. When I implemented this tiny mental pivot, it made all the difference in my ability to actually feel good about where I am in my life right here and now.

    So you find the concept or feeling of "gratitude" to be inaccessible or if you feel completely fake making a gratitude list, even though you are told it's a game-changer for what you're experiencing in your life (and it is), this episode is absolutely 110% for YOU. It's a banger. 

    Episode highlights:

    -How gratitude ACTUALLY works

    -The Alternative Gratitude List and examples of how you can try it out for yourself

    -Your thoughts are actions in the quantum realm

    -The only thing you "have to do"

    -Why you want to become friends with your subconscious mind

    -The song "Warmth of the Sun" by the Beach Boys as an awesome example of alternative gratitude.

  • Beautiful creators!! I'm back!! It's SO GOOD to be here with you again. Like coming home after a long trip, eating a full home-cooked meal, and taking a hot shower. That's how recording this episode felt. I have no regrets regarding my hiatus, but damn if I almost felt a twinge during initial production!

    To re-introduce myself, my name is Steel Maggie, and I'm a songwriter, vocalist, and dance pop demigoddess. This is my podcast, Subconsciously Steel Maggie, formerly known as Mind Made Wrong. If this is your first episode, welcome! If you're returning, thank you for holding it down with your loyalty. I'm truly indebted to you.

    My topical focus has shifted away from "coping" and "working through" mental health situations, towards understanding and using the power of the subconscious mind to consciously create what you most desire to experience in your life. This first episode returning is an overview of the Law of Mind, foundational Hermetic principles, and reality creation. I clear up terms, phrases, and attitudes that mar the impact of the "manifesting" community and distract you from developing your own connection to the infinite intelligence within. This episode is essentially an outline of what I'll be covering in following episodes to come, which is why it's a helpful overview, especially if you're new to this way of thinking.

    Even though the podcast name has changed and my topics have narrowed in niche, I guarantee, I vow to you, that you will find even more value and actionable inspiration in the episodes to come than ever before.

    By the way, I'm so thrilled and grateful to see that despite my long and unannounced hiatus, that you're still coming through for this podcast all over the world, from Los Angeles, to Brazil, to Ireland, to France and beyond. My listener analytics from this past year and a half from being away really surprised me, let alone that all you podcast listeners, Mind Made Wrong veterans and newcomers alike, were still downloading and listening to the old catalogue of episodes. This confirms to me that the content I'm creating remains right on time, both intellectually and spiritually. I want to follow that compass always, so your downloads, subscriptions, follows, episode plays, and reviews keep me aligned what I set out to do back in 2019 with this podcast.

    You may notice I have removed a number of past episodes from the catalog. One or two of these were taken down by the request of the interviewed guest, but a majority have been removed because I no longer align with the message (or like...the general vibe, man) of those interviews. No bad blood, nothing personal - the messaging of the interviews made sense for Mind Made Wrong, but they don't fit Subconsciously Steel Maggie. The solo episodes that have been removed are due to the same reason - I no longer agree with what I said nor identify with my thought process at the time of a particular episode's publishing.

  • My beautiful creators, a queen cannot live on bread aloneā€¦ thatā€™s why I asked Dexie, artist divine, former Mind Made Wrong guest, my soul sister and birthday twin, to come back and deliver us a second serving. This interview dives deep into the truths of artistry, creativity, and self-worth. Please stay for dinner, itā€™s your favorite meal, home-cooked with love.

    My favorite moments in Dexie: The Second Course

    -Private vs. public presentation: the scarcity-based belief that leads you to creative burn-out

    -You create a product that is for consumption, but you are not for consumption.

    -Look forward to ā€œDish with Dexie,ā€ the podcast!

    -Audio journaling as a mode of therapy

    -Youā€™re never going to feel ā€œreadyā€ - The immeasurable value of B-minus work.

    -The new meaning of Dexieā€™s song ā€œLay With Me,ā€ and why it is so important to her mental health journey, as an ode to self-care and self-worth

    -There is nothing wrong with a sabbatical, and in fact, we think itā€™s crucial to artistic Renaissance. Dexie shares her personal experience this year with taking a break from songwriting.

    -The attitude about releasing music and content that every single artist should have!!

    -Why itā€™s your ultimate DUTY as an artist to know your worth.

    -Live your life as a work of art because art lives as a work of YOU.

  • Hello my beautiful creators! Today weā€™re talking about overcommitment. Some of you might simply read that word ā€œovercommitmentā€ and you just KNOW itā€™s you. Some of you may not know yet - but youā€™re about to find out. Iā€™m spilling ALLLLL the beans on how I have been Overcommitter Supreme this summer. Iā€™m sharing this much today, possibly oversharing, because it is incredibly important to me that if you are also a chronic overcommitter, that you can recognize yourself in as many situations as possible, and you become aware and have the tools to break free from this cycle. Why? Because I know you want to succeed and be profitable in your artistry. Committing to everything is committing to nothing, certainly not success. You and I are in this together, and we succeed together by using our mental health experiences as superpowers for creativity and change. But this means we have to make discerning and vision-informed choices. This means we have to prune. This means we stop overcommitting.

    ā€œOvercommitment is the divorce of clarity and priority from your vision."

  • Hello beautiful creators, itā€™s Steel Maggie, and wow...todayā€™s episode ALMOST wasnā€™t! This is an absolutely spur-of-the moment, jolt-of-lightning, kick-in-the-pants, canā€™t believe this was in front of my face the entire time type of revelation, one that I almost didnā€™t have, and almost was never able to share with you!! Have you ever wondered why you have such big goals and dreams, you make these beautiful plans, everything feels like itā€™s moving forward, and all of a sudden, a year has gone by and youā€™re in the exact same place you started, or worse, while ā€œallā€ of your peers are achieving greater and greater things? Is there anything more frustrating than this?? I FEEL YOU. And this episode will be exactly what you needed to hear because Iā€™m going to give you hind AND future sight to why and how this happens. Iā€™m going to give you the exact THOUGHT behind why we self-sabotage, and what you can think instead to stop the cycle long enough to choose something different in order to experience a different reality.

  • Hello beautiful creators! The incomparable, bold, and unmistakably talented Hope Littwin is back for the second half of her interview, where she expands upon her journey to worthy, and generously grants us incredible insights on self-acceptance, artistic integrity, self-care, and honoring her boundaries.

    My favorite moments in Part 2:

    -Hope gives us a week FREE of BetterHelp.com: https://www.betterhelp.com/rpc/35e926db347781a601

    -On her mindset shift to worthiness: ā€œInstead of thinking ā€˜how cheaply can I possibly do this,ā€™ Iā€™m working on ā€˜how BIG can I possibly think, how much can I ask for?ā€™ā€

    -How Hope assembles her ā€œarmy of self care.ā€

    -Negative self-talk is actually a comment on ā€œI feel shame, I feel like Iā€™m not worthy,ā€ the more you dig into it, itā€™s like this is what youā€™re actually saying underneath your complaint.

    -Protecting her energy: ā€œI cover my head...itā€™s like a boundary; Iā€™m here, youā€™re there, and I donā€™t have to participate in your negative energy.

    -The emotional displacement caused by episodes: ā€œI think thatā€™s a question of self-acceptance and compassion for self, to recognize that this is happening, itā€™s not the end of the world, but it still sucks, but thereā€™s also something in here that could be valuable, so how do I think about this situation differently, and prove to myself that itā€™s useful.ā€

    -ā€œTo get to that place of understanding why you do what you do and where your integrity is with what youā€™re gonna share, is hard work, and itā€™s valuable work, and I think we have a responsibility as creators to do that work.ā€

  • Hello beautiful creators! :) Multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, composer and recording artist, Hope Littwin, joins me today to have a vivid and vital conversation about the intersection of creativity and mental health. After finding herself trapped in the artistic and monetary confines of the high-art conservatory world, Hope shares with us how she is becoming an independent artist in every sense of the word.

    My favorite moments in Part 1:

    -The value of going back to your foundations when things get tough: ā€Any time you have something that flips your life around...you start asking yourself very different questions, Itā€™s scary, but itā€™s a very valuable questionā€ - ā€œWho am I if I canā€™t do my art?ā€

    -The human race essentially makes art in order to have and continue a conversation: ā€œArt is much more about dialogue than anything else, I donā€™t create in a vacuum...I donā€™t create just for myself.ā€

    -On acting despite fear: ā€œThe only way out is through.ā€ If youā€™re avoiding something, it is controlling you.

    -ā€œCreate in the circumstance that is the most terrifying for you over and over again. You canā€™t not face it.ā€

    -Hopeā€™s view on the balance between labels of diagnoses and self-evaluation: ā€œI was afraid that I would allow someone elseā€™s opinion, which could completely be misled, to then define how I view myself. I want to be the person who defines myself. Iā€™m willing to face myself on a daily basis. At the end of the day I donā€™t want to be at someone elseā€™s door being like ā€œwhatā€™s wrong with me.ā€ I have my own tools to say ā€œok Iā€™ve been here before, hereā€™s my list of tools I can use to bring myself back, and maybe one of which is calling someone who is a professional who can help me, but I kind of know when thatā€™s the option that I want, and when itā€™s not.ā€

  • Hello beautiful creatorsā€¦ First, remember I love you and Iā€™m so grateful for you. March has been difficult for us to say the least. But you are strong beyond belief. This episodeā€™s topic on ā€œenergetic environmentsā€ is meant to help you protect and transform your energy during this time, to coach you how to fortify your inner empire. I hope this episode may serve as a clarifying, inspiring, and motivating offering to you. Thank you so much for your ongoing listenership and dedication.

    For links and more, visit https://www.steelmaggiemusic.com/podcast and check out Episode 45 - Energetic Environments

    How to transform and protect your energetic environment:

    Find a quiet spot, or put some instrumental music or white noise on, and take stock of what youā€™re thinking and feeling right now. Write it down and donā€™t filter.Examine your day, what/whom youā€™re surrounding yourself with, your coping actions, and trace them back to your thoughts about the circumstance.Imagine your energetic environment and how you desire to FEEL.Pick a couple of things you can adjust right now, things that might help, and ACT NOW. Even if youā€™re unsure, just try it out. Try your hypotheses to see what works and what doesnā€™t. But do it now. Your new energetic environment is on the other side.

    When you do just one thing, the smallest adjustment will make a world of difference.

  • Hello my beautiful creators! Letā€™s continue social distancing, staying home when possible, washing those hands for 20 seconds frequently, and over-delivering love and support to each other online. We will flatten that curve together. In the meantime, this is Part 2 of Martin Gachiriā€™s interview where he shares his experience with the ever-present struggle that artists face; self worth and value as it applies to their creations. His answer? It comes down to your own lack of trust in yourself, the quality of your relationship with YOU. Discover how Martin found a sense of value and purpose in his artistic identity, even when he felt detached and uninspired.

    My favorite moments in Part 2:

    -Donā€™t give yourself time to second guess yourself. Share your art.

    -You donā€™t have to have crazy big aspirations in order to justify your existence as a creator of art. ā€œI just kind of wanted to be that guitar dude.ā€

    -Moms are always right! Martinā€™s mother shared with him one short sentence that made a huge impact on his moods and his relationships with others and himself (seriously if you get just ONE take away from this episode, apply THIS).

    -The evolution of your music (or any other artistic body of work) represents the evolution of who youā€™ve been and who youā€™ve become.

    -A song is an audio ā€œscreenshotā€ of who you were in that exact moment when you wrote it.

    -An inside peek at one of Martinā€™s RPM Songwriting Challenge creations, ā€œMicrodoseā€

  • Hello my beautiful creators! I hope you are staying healthy, taking extra care of yourselves, and practicing social distancing. If youā€™re bored in self-isolation or just plain need something ELSE other than the constant onslaught of COVID-19 news, it just so happens that my friend, fellow musician and Cal Poly Pomona alumnus, Martin Gachiri, is here to share the first half of his Mind Made Wrong Interview. Fittingly, he speaks on the isolation of depression and the need for the healing outlets of personal artistic expression and community. Itā€™s a very timely message that I can almost guarantee you will relate to and find encouraging during this frustrating and fearful time in our history.

    My favorite moments in Part 1:

    -How Martin found creative freedom by radically changing his perspective on what artistry ā€œlooks likeā€

    -What you can learn from Martinā€™s two-week break from speaking aloud (thatā€™s right, he didnā€™t say 1 word for 2 WEEKS STRAIGHT)

    -How depression develops as a result of isolation: ā€œme, myself and Iā€ thinking

    -ā€When you feel like a burden, thatā€™s when people probably want to hear the most from you.ā€

    -The possibility of a ā€œMotown Martinā€ series

  • Hello my beautiful creators! It's me, Steel Maggie, here with probably my most relevant topic TO DATE. We all know that 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything - it's so fitting that this particular episode on Mind Made Wrong (42) is MY answer to MYSELF and most of the patterns and mistakes I've dragged myself through my entire music career so far. If you're feeling lost in your career, or feeling like you need to do EVERYTHING or that you're missing this one thing some expert or coach is going to teach you that's going to make all the difference in your life... I want you to take a deep breath and listen to this episode, and know in your soul - you are worthy of your own trust, and you have everything right here right now to get you to the next step. This is sneaky self care. It's about listening to yourself and honoring your values above all else. Everyone has their own opinions, and many have literal financial investment in making sure you feel like you NEED what they provide, like something within YOU is missing. I don't buy it anymore. I hope you listen and discover the value and beauty and wholeness in YOU.

    If you have not yet heard my latest single "Holy Ground," you are missing out on the self worth dance anthem of your LIFE - It actually is the epitome of "Sneaky Self Care" https://youtu.be/ZBIZpAHz404

  • Hello beautiful creators! THIS IS THE 'HOLY GROUND" EPISODE. It has been RELEASED. And it is glorious. First and foremost, please LISTEN to "Holy Ground" (by me, Steel Maggie) which is available most anywhere you stream (maybe even on the platform where you're reading this right now), so that these next 30 minutes we spend together will be put into crystal-clear context :) Please note, this particular podcast recording is from a Facebook Live.

    When I wrote this song, I still had no idea what it was like to love or value myself. I struggled with letting go of the self-loathing alcoholic identity I built and reveled in, because at the very core, I was afraid of myself, both the darkness and the light. I didn't know that my extremes are essential to be being the most authentic human being (and artist) I can be.

    Holy Ground became a prophetic lyrical vision for the future of my most important relationship - the one I have with myself. In this episode, you'll hear me share my emotional evolution through start to finish of writing, recording, and releasing Holy Ground. "There's no doubt...Everywhere I go is holy ground." May you listen now and believe for yourself.

    If you received value from this episode of Mind Made Wrong, please make sure you are following or are subscribed wherever you stream, and shoot me a DM or email (@steelmaggiehq or [email protected]) sharing an identity or thought loop you're going to let go of now, in favor of learning how to truly love and celebrate the full force of your existence. If it moves you, please share this podcast with another beautiful creator you know. I thank you eternally.

  • Hello beautiful creators! Today I am joined by musician and songwriter, Jon Omen, as he shares the life-saving role that music has had in his mental health journey. His incredible story is proof that we are all here for a reason, and whatever that reason is (as it is uniquely different for each of us), we must continuously pursue it, and passionately. Listen on to be ridiculously inspired.

    Highlights of Part 1

    -How music saved Jonā€™s life

    -The power of personal manifestation

    -Why the song is the most important thing (and why you need to leave your ego at the door!)

    -If you can be anything in the world, be passionate

    -The only true metric of success in your music career (hint - itā€™s 100% NOT your Spotify following)

    ā€œWhen you have a vision that is...almost uncompromisable, and you start focusing on that more, you can draw things to you that you donā€™t even realizeā€¦ā€

  • Hello beautiful creators! Isnā€™t ā€œgratitudeā€ becoming such an annoying buzzword these days? Wantrepreneurs and influencers and even successful business people are trying to sell you on their seminars and overhyped content by using this word constantly in their podcasts, books, and ad campaignsā€¦ We all want to be successful, and sure, weā€™ll write down 10 things weā€™re grateful for every night if this big shot on Instagram said it helped him get rich. But the meaning and power of gratitude in YOUR life is significantly diluted in the process. This episode I break down the simple secret Iā€™ve discovered for letting gratitude bear fruit in my life. And donā€™t worry, yet another thing you have to DO: itā€™s this and only this - a willingness to consider the possibility.

    Reach out and let me know if youā€™re willing to consider this method of accessing gratitude in your life - DM on Instagram or Twitter @steelmaggiehq or email me at [email protected]

  • Hello beautiful creators - IT'S MONDAY and I've got a life-changing episode here for you if you really listen, let it soak in, and then take action on it. It's about this 1 Principle - "What I focus on expands." If that sounds woo-woo to you, (totally get it) I actually think you will benefit from this concept the most! I spent the better part of a year trying to wrap my brain around this and also complaining that I wasn't where I wanted to be, and then... IT CLICKED. It feels like I've achieved and grown more in a few weeks in 2020 than I have... ever, really. So today's episode is dedicated to helping it "click" for you!

    "What do you want to EXPAND? What do you want to create more of in your life? Figure out what you want to increase or improve. And then focus on it, live with it, breathe it into your life, be thankful for it, banish all fear and fearful actions from that area of your life." I want to hear how you're going to apply this in your life - tell me on Instagram or Twitter @steelmaggiehq or email me at [email protected]

  • Greetings beautiful creators. It is I, Steel Maggie, here with George Brandt for PART 2 of his divine and courageous interview. In Part 2, George and I kind of take a left turn into our similar religious backgrounds, coming of age in art-starved schools, and how that has affected both our songwriting and who we are becoming as ever-evolving human artists. He shares how he practices self-care and how that grounds him in his creativity despite his high anxiety. I absolutely love the concept he offers to us about ā€œkeeping house of the mind,ā€ so l highly encourage you to listen for that. My favorite part of this interview: we come to the conclusion that the biggest lie in entertainment is that ā€œyou are not ok as you are.ā€ But George Brandt is here to shed ALL the light onto that darkness. This is a powerful 38 minutes folks.

    We are all just ā€œskeletons in skin suits.ā€ Absolutely brilliant George, thank you so much for joining me on Mind Made Wrong. Keep slaying and creating beautiful things as you do.

  • Beautiful creators, I moved DIFFERENTLY in this episode. Here is Part 1 of an interview I did with the divinely genuine pop artist and Indiana-SoCal transplant George Brandt. If you are a songwriter toying with your identity as such, or if youā€™re struggling with being your authentic self in your art, then you needed this conversation YESTERDAY. Or if youā€™re simply into all things and people cinematic and dramatic, this is also your episode. And George Brandt is 100% your new fave in that category now (well, besides moi of course). During part 1, we go IN on the creative process, muses, nostalgia, and the authentic self. George shares his journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and healing from his past as a songwriter and musician.

    ā€œIā€™m constantly trying to rewire myself...and let goā€¦ā€

    This episode ends with a cliffhanger SOOOOO you absolutely must come back for Part 2 next week! And the accompanying full length video interview!!

  • Louise and I are BACK for the second, and even more inspiring half of our interview (if you can believe thatā€™s possible)! It was an absolute blessing to talk with the musician AND life coach, Louise Warren. She is in tune with her creativity, how she shows up in the world, and most importantly, how she shows up for HERSELF. If you havenā€™t listened to Part 1 yet, please do so, as it lays the foundation for the incredible goodness in Part 2.

    Highlights:

    -Howā€™s your input/output ratio? Are you intentionally and lovingly filling your vessel, or are you ā€œchain smoking peopleā€ to do that job for you?

    -Artists and burnout

    -How to develop a growth mindset

    -Our lives become our masterpieces when we let creativity flow in how we do our work and live our lives, whether you are a musician, painter, doctor, accountant. You donā€™t have to be in the arts to live creatively.

    -ā€œWe can wake up and decide to matter, decide to transform the world in which we see, just by sitting down with a pen and a piece of paper. How cool is that? That is magic.ā€ - Louise

    If you received value from Louiseā€™s message, please leave me a lovely rating or review wherever you listen, and please share this podcast with another beautiful creator you know. Thank you for the incredible gift of your dedicated listenership.
