About
My name is Ouijdane
Ouijdane is a cross-national name rooted in the idea of inner consciousness, and when I look back at my life, that feels strangely appropriate.
It really grew out of years of trying to understand my own patterns more deeply. I was the teenager sitting in the self-help section of the bookstore when everybody else was somewhere else entirely.
And for almost fifteen years now I've been immersed in personal development, manifestation, spirituality, subconscious work and psychology. I have read a lot, taken courses, attended seminars, and learned from coaches and mentors I really respected.
And I am grateful for so much of what I learned. But what kept becoming obvious to me was that understanding an idea intellectually and actually recognizing it inside your own life are two very different things.
I could understand limiting beliefs perfectly when somebody explained them to me, and then I would look at my own life and think, okay, but how do I actually know which beliefs are operating in me? How do I tell whether I am dealing with a practical problem, or fear, or conditioning, or something I have just been carrying for years without noticing?
That question became much more personal after I went to a three-day Unleash the Power Within event by Tony Robbins several years ago.
I came home feeling so energized, but instead of only writing down goals, I started writing down what I actually believed around success, business, money, abundance, relationships and visibility.
And that exercise showed me something I had not seen clearly before. There were things I genuinely wanted, but some of my expectations underneath them were telling a completely different story.
I wanted success, but I could see that part of me connected success with pressure and responsibility. I wanted more money, but I had ideas about what having more might demand from me, or how it might change my relationships.
And that's when the question shifted for me, because instead of only asking how do I stop doing this, I started asking something else.
Why does this behavior make sense to some part of me?
And that question turned out to be so much more useful, because it stopped me looking at every repeated pattern as random self-sabotage and started me looking for the logic underneath it. What I had learned, what I expected, what felt familiar, and what I was still living by without ever actually deciding whether I agreed with it.
That question became one of the foundations of Ouijdanism, and eventually of The 8-Day Limiting Belief Reset™.
