Magic Barclay (00:42):
Welcome back to A Magical Life.
I'm your host, Magic Barclay.
And today my guest is KerryTepidino.
She is the CEO and founder ofthe One Thought Away project, a
global company and movement thathas influenced.
Two hundred and fifty thousandplus people to transform their
(01:02):
lives.
Kerry struggled with low selfesteem, a lack of self worth and
poor body image, which spiraledinto a personal battle with an
eating disorder.
This journey led her to.
To a poignant and definingmoment in her life, where she
got to make a decision tocontinue down a path of
unhappiness and poor health, orfind the freedom and happiness
(01:26):
that her soul always craved.
Through deep study of personaldevelopment, leadership,
holistic health, nutrition,Ayurveda, yoga, meditation and
breath work, Kerry created herpowerful, sacred self system.
Which helped her go from rockbottom to rock solid.
(01:47):
She's now living a life that shenever thought could be possible
for her.
Her unique process includesmindset mastery, emotional
intelligence, self love, andbelieving that with proper
mentorship, community, andstrategies, anything is
possible.
She is a walking example thatyou are one thought away from
(02:09):
having the life you want.
Or not, and is excited tosupport you to lock in the same
understanding for your own life.
Wow.
Welcome, Kerry.
Kerry Tepedino (02:21):
Thank you, Magic.
I am so grateful to be here.
I know that you don't put, putpeople in front of your, your
people in your tribe lightly.
And so I just, I feel veryhonored and humbled that, we get
to have this conversation today.
Thank you.
Magic Barclay (02:36):
Thank you.
And I'm honored and humbled tohave you here.
I've spoken to the listeners,you know, at length in the past
of my own struggles of selfworth and eating disorders, you
know, going from one side of thespectrum to the other and, you
know, really having to choosemyself.
And even just off air, we werejust discussing that.
(03:00):
I'm taking some time for me.
I think many people have to hitthat rock bottom very sadly to
realize that that is soimportant.
Kerry Tepedino (03:12):
Yeah.
You know, I agree.
I mean, sometimes what happensis it's, it's just so easy to
stay in your comfort zone, notunderstanding that that comfort
zone, that way of being, thatbaseline that you're used to is
actually holding you backbecause we're so emotionally.
Connected and tied to whatever'sgoing on in our lives that it's
(03:33):
really hard to see the blindspots, right?
And so it's very easy to justcontinue to do what we're doing
think yesterday thoughts haveyesterday emotions take
yesterday actions wanting to getdifferent results, but not
understanding that we'reactually stalling out there
because we're not in this nextlevel of conversation having
(03:55):
different awarenesses, if all ofthat makes sense.
Magic Barclay (03:59):
It makes perfect sense to me.
And look, I'm really excitedwith what you can share with the
listeners today.
So I ask all of my guests thesame three questions and
everyone's.
Answers just blow my mind howamazingly different they are.
So here's your first one.
What can your expertise do toaccelerate health, be it
(04:22):
physical, emotional, orspiritual?
Kerry Tepedino (04:26):
Well, so we are really, really focused on your
thought processes.
And what are the thoughts thatyou're thinking?
Um, because the thoughts thatyou're thinking are absolutely
100 percent of the timeimpacting the emotions that
you're having, how you'refeeling, those are impacting the
actions that you decide to take.
Your repetitive actions day inand day out become your habits.
(04:50):
Your habits are impacting yourhealth.
Every single time, right?
So for example, I'll just breakit down quickly, but if you have
a conversation going on insideof your head about not being
good enough or can't do hardthings, or let me, let me use a
personal example.
It's too hard to break my eatingaddiction.
It's too hard to stop theemotional eating.
(05:12):
Well, if I have thatconversation going on with
myself inside, then it's Mythat's my mental health.
It's impacting my emotionalhealth because then I start to
feel agitated frustrated, um,probably desperate disappointed
And so that's impacting myemotional health Then that goes
round and round and round thosethings are going to impact the
(05:34):
actions that I take So if i'mfeeling depressed or anxious or
stressed, then i'm probablyreaching for more sugar.
I'm probably reaching forwhatever's not serving me maybe
alcohol I'm, probably notexercising but all of a sudden
my physical health starts to godown the tank All of those
things are then definitelyimpacting my spiritual health my
connection to myself on a deeperlevel You My connection to, a
(05:57):
higher power, what, you know,what I call a higher power for
me.
And so it's a domino effect,right?
We're holistic beings, thephysical, mental, emotional, and
spiritual.
So it's all impacting us on a,on a health level.
Magic Barclay (06:13):
Definitely.
And look, we discuss wealth heretoo.
Many people think wealth is justfinancial, but it's really more
personal and emotional wealththat really, you know, knowing
your self worth and valuingyourself, what are your top
three tips to creating wealth?
Kerry Tepedino (06:36):
Well, I love that question because we also
speak into wealth on differentlevels.
when people first hear aboutwealth, they, they usually think
that it's about finances and insome of it is, you know, if you
think you can have it, or if youthink you can't have wealth,
you're going to need to proveyourself, right?
(06:56):
Because whatever cognitively,even on a subconscious level,
unconscious level, we got toprove ourselves, right?
So the way that you're thinkingis definitely impacting your
actual bank account.
but then there's this wholeother aspect of wealth.
Like I know some very, veryfinancially wealthy people, but
(07:18):
they're not healthy and theywould give all of that financial
abundance to be able tostraighten out their physical,
mental, emotional, spiritualhealth.
And so they don't feel abundant,right?
They feel sick.
They feel.
lethargic, they feel run down orwhatever, whatever it is that
they're feeling.
And then I also know people who,like many of us, we know people
(07:41):
who don't have a ton offinancial wealth, but they're so
wealthy in regards to their,their mindset and how they think
and their level of joy, youknow, their joy meter and their
joy factors.
And so it, it, the wealthconversation is really an
internal one.
It's all relative.
and it's really about yourperspective on the world and
(08:01):
what you consider to be wealthyfor you might be different than
wealthy for somebody else.
Magic Barclay (08:08):
Okay.
Our final standard question isaround weight.
Many people better with theirweight.
I know I have, I know you've hadan eating disorder.
What can you offer the listenerswho might be on this journey
and, you know, maybe share partof your story so that people
(08:30):
don't feel that they're alone,because that's often how we feel
when we're on the journey.
Kerry Tepedino (08:36):
Right.
So for me, I was actually 50pounds heavier than I am today
when I was at my highest weight,disregarding my pregnancy
weights.
And, for me, what I realized wasonce I finally let go of the
self judgment, once I finallylet go of the loving myself
(08:57):
conditionally, like I will lovemyself.
When I lose 10 pounds or I'lllove myself when I lose 30
pounds but I I finally just gotexhausted by the whole struggle
around my weight and my tying itto my worthiness and tying it to
my value and my lovabilityfactor and I got to a point
(09:19):
where I was so exhausted by thewhole struggle that I finally
just said, you know enough isenough like I would rather Be
overweight Thanks And happy thanskinny and unhappy.
And that was definitely adefining moment for me in
regards to my, my self esteemjourney and my self esteem
(09:39):
struggles.
and then what happened with allof that is I started to make
decisions around what am I goingto eat?
How am I going to move my body?
What is my sleep hygiene looklike?
You know, I started to makedecisions Because I loved myself
enough to make healthydecisions.
Versus making decisions becauseI wanted to be skinny or because
(10:03):
I was comparing myself tosomebody else in their skinny
jeans.
Oh, do I look like as good asthat?
Or, you know, constantly in acomparison game.
And, what happened over time isthe 50 pounds, U.
S.
pounds came off.
Naturally.
I mean, it came off because Iwas changing my internal
conversation.
(10:24):
I was changing the way that Itreated myself.
I loved myself no matter what.
I realized that the 50 poundswas actually a symptom to
something deeper going on.
And that something deeper goingon was really the personal
development work that, that Ididn't have at the time.
And so once I cleaned up myrelationship to myself, once I
(10:45):
started to love myself, nomatter what.
Then my body finally got achance to actually heal, but not
heal in a way that it was like ashort term hit of relief where,
you know, we, many of us whohave had a weight struggle, you
might know this, you know, it'slike lose 10 pounds, then put 15
back on.
(11:06):
And so it wasn't like that atall.
Like.
Finally, my body stabilized andyou know, I, I've lost this
weight, I broke the eatingaddiction.
I've, I've had the weight offfor gosh, a couple of decades
now and I eat what I want and Idon't worry.
I don't have those conversationsanymore and I don't overexercise
and I don't restrict and I don'tdeprive myself.
(11:28):
I allow myself to live my life,but living my life is coming
from a different intention andmy intention is.
Loving myself, being thehappiest version and the
healthiest version of mepossible and making decisions
from that place.
And that's a very, verydifferent place to live from.
Magic Barclay (11:49):
It certainly is.
Now we've covered a fair bitalready.
I really want to open the floorto you now, Kerry.
Tell us about One Thought Away.
Tell us about the work that youdo and maybe how the listeners
can benefit from yourexperience.
Kerry Tepedino (12:05):
Yeah, so one thought away.
So I absolutely love this topicand Our book has come out.
It came out last year The oneit's called one thought away.
We were number one bestsellerand number one new release in
many categories It was personalpersonal development and coach
and this is on amazon personaldevelopment and coaching and
christian mentoring and businessmentoring and coaching and the
(12:29):
concept between behind onethought away is You are one
thought away from having yourdream life today or not And you
could easily um alter thatslightly and say you're one
thought away from having thehealth That you want today or
not the wealth that you wanttoday or not The life that you
(12:49):
want today or not the adventurethe play the you know
relationships it could go on andon and on And the concept behind
this because it's a simpleconcept.
It's not always easy But it issimple and that concept is
really about when you're at thatfork in the road where you have
a decision And you either makethe same decision that you made
(13:10):
yesterday or you choose adifferent thought.
So, let me give an example.
So, in regards to, weight, sincethis is what we have been
talking about today a bit.
In regards to weight.
So, are one thought away fromeating the whole chocolate cake
today in this moment.
Or not.
And at that moment where you'reat that fork in the road, where
(13:31):
you make this different decisionor the same decision, I call
that the slippery moment ofhesitation.
And it's a slippery moment ofhesitation because That moment
happens so quickly where we, weslide back into the old pattern,
the old thought, the oldfeelings, and then we wonder why
nothing changes.
(13:52):
And so what we get to do in thatmoment is we get to create a
pattern interrupt.
The pattern interrupt isChoosing a different thought,
for example.
Okay.
So I might not be where I wantto be yet with my weight and oh
gosh, I would love to have thatwhole chocolate cake to myself,
but.
(14:13):
I am also really grateful thatI'm making different decisions
for myself now.
I'm grateful that I'm attractingdifferent strategies.
I'm grateful that I'm attractingthe support that can really help
create the life that I reallywant to have in my body with
myself.
I'm ready to do somethingdifferent.
I'm ready to have a differentthought, take a different
(14:34):
action.
I'm excited and grateful to seewhere my results where what
results will happen when I takethese different thoughts and
actions And so what we're doingin that moment is we're creating
a pattern interrupt We'reinterrupting the old pattern of
just going and eating the wholecake probably mindlessly and not
even tasting a bite of it We'reinterrupting that old pattern
(14:56):
and We're creating somethingdifferent in that moment That
something different is going tolay down different neuro
connections in the brain.
So think about differentpathways in the brain.
Um, there is going to, thatdifferent pattern or that
different step is going to laydown different connections in
(15:17):
the brain where then we start toreprogram the brain to a new way
of being.
And that new way of being is,I'm so grateful that I'm
figuring this out.
I'm so.
I'm grateful for my body towhere it got me to where it is
today, and I'm now ready to geta different result with my body.
And so we start to shift theconversation, we start to shift
(15:39):
the focus, we start to reprogramhow the mind and the brain works
to get a different result.
Does this make sense?
Magic Barclay (15:48):
Makes perfect sense, and I'm so glad that
you've said it.
Now, people might find that theydo take two steps forward, five
steps back, and often they'llbeat themselves up about it.
I know from my own experience,you know, I did really well, and
then when I fell off the wagon,you know, I beat myself up about
(16:10):
it and talking to a lot of otherpeople, they've done the same.
So when you have that slip up,what's a good way to address
that?
Kerry Tepedino (16:21):
Well, the first thing is to remember that you're
human, you know, we all havequote unquote slip ups.
But what we want to do myencouragement to all of our
friends here is to not unpackyour bags and live there.
Right.
So realizing that you're, you'rehuman having a human experience.
You're not meant to be perfectif we were all cookie cutter
(16:43):
perfect and lived only perfectlyit'd be a very boring world with
that being said let's not usethat as an excuse to fall back
into the old pattern Let's stayfocused on that bigger vision
that we have for our health Thatbigger vision that we have for
our wealth that bigger visionthat we have for our lives And
let's course correct in thatmoment.
(17:04):
Let's forgive ourselves for inthat moment, if there's anything
to forgive course, correct, andstart a new start immediately
with a different conversation.
And that really can go back tolike what I was just sharing.
Okay.
So that didn't go exactly as Iplanned.
And I'm grateful that I have nowbrought myself back on track.
(17:25):
I'm grateful that I'm nowrecommitted to my bigger vision
and my bigger dream on my life.
Magic Barclay (17:35):
I absolutely love that.
My goodness, Kerry, I know thelisteners will be thinking, how
do I get in touch with Kerry?
I need to speak to her, but alsowe love freebies here.
So first of all, what can we dofor the listeners?

And that something deeper goingon was really the personal
development work that, that Ididn't have at the time.
And so once I cleaned up myrelationship to myself, once I
(10:45):
started to love myself, nomatter what.
Then my body finally got achance to actually heal, but not
heal in a way that it was like ashort term hit of relief where,
you know, we, many of us whohave had a weight struggle, you
might know this, you know, it'slike lose 10 pounds, then put 15
back on.
(11:06):
And so it wasn't like that atall.
Like.
Finally, my body stabilized andyou know, I, I've lost this
weight, I broke the eatingaddiction.
I've, I've had the weight offfor gosh, a couple of decades
now and I eat what I want and Idon't worry.
I don't have those conversationsanymore and I don't overexercise
and I don't restrict and I don'tdeprive myself.
(11:28):
I allow myself to live my life,but living my life is coming
from a different intention andmy intention is.
Loving myself, being thehappiest version and the
healthiest version of mepossible and making decisions
from that place.
And that's a very, verydifferent place to live from.
Magic Barclay (11:49):
It certainly is.
Now we've covered a fair bitalready.
I really want to open the floorto you now, Kerry.
Tell us about One Thought Away.
Tell us about the work that youdo and maybe how the listeners
can benefit from yourexperience.
Kerry Tepedino (12:05):
Yeah, so one thought away.
So I absolutely love this topicand Our book has come out.
It came out last year The oneit's called one thought away.
We were number one bestsellerand number one new release in
many categories It was personalpersonal development and coach
and this is on amazon personaldevelopment and coaching and
christian mentoring and businessmentoring and coaching and the
(12:29):
concept between behind onethought away is You are one
thought away from having yourdream life today or not And you
could easily um alter thatslightly and say you're one
thought away from having thehealth That you want today or
not the wealth that you wanttoday or not The life that you
(12:49):
want today or not the adventurethe play the you know
relationships it could go on andon and on And the concept behind
this because it's a simpleconcept.
It's not always easy But it issimple and that concept is
really about when you're at thatfork in the road where you have
a decision And you either makethe same decision that you made
(13:10):
yesterday or you choose adifferent thought.
So, let me give an example.
So, in regards to, weight, sincethis is what we have been
talking about today a bit.
In regards to weight.
So, are one thought away fromeating the whole chocolate cake
today in this moment.
Or not.
And at that moment where you'reat that fork in the road, where
(13:31):
you make this different decisionor the same decision, I call
that the slippery moment ofhesitation.
And it's a slippery moment ofhesitation because That moment
happens so quickly where we, weslide back into the old pattern,
the old thought, the oldfeelings, and then we wonder why
nothing changes.
(13:52):
And so what we get to do in thatmoment is we get to create a
pattern interrupt.
The pattern interrupt isChoosing a different thought,
for example.
Okay.
So I might not be where I wantto be yet with my weight and oh
gosh, I would love to have thatwhole chocolate cake to myself,
but.
(14:13):
I am also really grateful thatI'm making different decisions
for myself now.
I'm grateful that I'm attractingdifferent strategies.
I'm grateful that I'm attractingthe support that can really help
create the life that I reallywant to have in my body with
myself.
I'm ready to do somethingdifferent.
I'm ready to have a differentthought, take a different
(14:34):
action.
I'm excited and grateful to seewhere my results where what
results will happen when I takethese different thoughts and
actions And so what we're doingin that moment is we're creating
a pattern interrupt We'reinterrupting the old pattern of
just going and eating the wholecake probably mindlessly and not
even tasting a bite of it We'reinterrupting that old pattern
(14:56):
and We're creating somethingdifferent in that moment That
something different is going tolay down different neuro
connections in the brain.
So think about differentpathways in the brain.
Um, there is going to, thatdifferent pattern or that
different step is going to laydown different connections in
(15:17):
the brain where then we start toreprogram the brain to a new way
of being.
And that new way of being is,I'm so grateful that I'm
figuring this out.
I'm so.
I'm grateful for my body towhere it got me to where it is
today, and I'm now ready to geta different result with my body.
And so we start to shift theconversation, we start to shift
(15:39):
the focus, we start to reprogramhow the mind and the brain works
to get a different result.
Does this make sense?
Magic Barclay (15:48):
Makes perfect sense, and I'm so glad that
you've said it.
Now, people might find that theydo take two steps forward, five
steps back, and often they'llbeat themselves up about it.
I know from my own experience,you know, I did really well, and
then when I fell off the wagon,you know, I beat myself up about
(16:10):
it and talking to a lot of otherpeople, they've done the same.
So when you have that slip up,what's a good way to address
that?
Kerry Tepedino (16:21):
Well, the first thing is to remember that you're
human, you know, we all havequote unquote slip ups.
But what we want to do myencouragement to all of our
friends here is to not unpackyour bags and live there.
Right.
So realizing that you're, you'rehuman having a human experience.
You're not meant to be perfectif we were all cookie cutter
(16:43):
perfect and lived only perfectlyit'd be a very boring world with
that being said let's not usethat as an excuse to fall back
into the old pattern Let's stayfocused on that bigger vision
that we have for our health Thatbigger vision that we have for
our wealth that bigger visionthat we have for our lives And
let's course correct in thatmoment.
(17:04):
Let's forgive ourselves for inthat moment, if there's anything
to forgive course, correct, andstart a new start immediately
with a different conversation.
And that really can go back tolike what I was just sharing.
Okay.
So that didn't go exactly as Iplanned.
And I'm grateful that I have nowbrought myself back on track.
(17:25):
I'm grateful that I'm nowrecommitted to my bigger vision
and my bigger dream on my life.
Magic Barclay (17:35):
I absolutely love that.
