The video shows how one person used belief breakthrough work to release attachments and improve her life.

• 00:00:00 Amber's story illustrates how we develop our limitations. Her father's prediction that she would not be able to be a gymnast because she was too tall proved wrong, but she allowed it to determine the course of her life. She is currently 27 years old and getting back into gymnastics after being divorced.
• 00:05:00 As a child, one's experiences can shape one's beliefs, which in turn dictate one's destiny. These beliefs can be based on real or perceived traumas, and can influence one's behavior and results as an adult. This is particularly true for those who don't develop emotional intelligence (EI) during their early years.
• 00:10:00 The author discusses how some of the choices we make throughout our lives are determined by the beliefs we embrace as children. These beliefs often result in limiting choices in adulthood, which can lead to frustration, unhappiness, and financial difficulties. The author suggests that by understanding this, we can begin to free ourselves from our limiting beliefs.
• 00:15:00 The video discusses how our most influential beliefs are deeply embedded in our subconscious mind and are like gravity, we can't see or touch them, but we can see the results and physical manifestations of them. These beliefs can be difficult to change because we typically don't revisit them unless we make a great conscious and consistent effort. If you answer "no" to any of the questions in the video, it can be indicative that your subconscious beliefs are blocking your progress. However, by healing the inner child and revisiting and resolving the choices from your childhood that are limiting you as an adult, you can return to a more authentic, peaceful, and content state. The proof is in your results, and if you're resisting the assertion that you're a prisoner of your beliefs, I won't ask you to believe it. What I will ask you to consider is whether or not you are living your ideal life. Are your relationships as connected and fulfilling as you want them to be? Are your career opportunities as you dreamed they would be? Are your health and physical condition where you want them to be? Do you live with unstoppable courage and confidence? Are you earning as much money as you would like? Are your health and physical condition improving? Are you living beyond your potential?
• 00:20:00 The video discusses the benefits of belief breakthrough work, which is the process of uncovering and revisiting all our limiting beliefs to question their continued validity. Many of these beliefs have hit their expiration date and need a serious upgrade. The video shows how one person, who became a hoarder as an adult because of her childhood experiences of moving around a lot, used belief breakthrough work to release her attachments to stuff and lost weight rapidly as a result. She says both her stuff and her weight had provided a sense of comfort to her, but were actually very limiting. Now the stuff and the weight are both leaving her life, and she feels happier, lighter, and more free.
