In this episode of The Human Beauty Movement, Jennifer Norman sits down with entrepreneur, author, and Wishbeads founder Alexa Fischer to explore what it truly means to be your own genie — and how to turn wishes into reality through intentional creation, self-trust, and courageous action.

A Yale-trained actress turned confidence coach who has taught more than 300,000 students worldwide, Alexa shares how belief lives in the body, why rituals anchor alignment, and how small, decisive steps build real momentum. Together, they unpack the difference between wishful thinking and embodied authorship, the power of collective intention, and how to recognize when life is calling you forward.

00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,520
You know there's a moment in
every life when waiting fun time

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,800
starts to get old.
Waiting for permission.

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:10,400
Waiting to feel ready.
Waiting for someone or something

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,600
to grant us the confidence to
begin.

5
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:18,760
But what if the power we've been
looking for was never outside of

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,320
us?
Today's guest believes you don't

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,560
need a fairy godmother.
You don't need better timing.

8
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,360
You don't need to be chosen.
You just need to remember that

9
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,840
you are the genie.
Alexa Fisher is an entrepreneur,

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,560
author, speaker, and the founder
of Wish Feeds and Wish Club.

11
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,160
A Yale trained actress turned
confidence coach, she has taught

12
00:00:41,160 --> 00:00:45,000
more than 300,000 students
worldwide how to communicate

13
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,960
with clarity and step fully into
their potential.

14
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:52,800
She's the visionary behind a
global intention setting

15
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,520
movement and the forthcoming
book You Are the Genie.

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,560
Through Wish as One, she's also
helping to spark collective

17
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:05,160
activations rooted in shared
imagination and possibility.

18
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,680
As a member of the Association
of Transformational Leaders,

19
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:13,280
Alexa's work bridges belief,
embodiment, and bold action.

20
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,600
So in our conversation, we are
going to explore what it truly

21
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,480
means to be your own genie, to
move beyond wishful thinking and

22
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,040
into intentional creation.
We are going to talk about

23
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,280
building self trust, recognizing
when life is calling you

24
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,280
forward, and having the courage
to answer.

25
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:37,480
Alexa shares how belief lives in
the body, how rituals anchor

26
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,320
alignment, and how big ideas
become meaningful experiences

27
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:43,080
when they're rooted in
community.

28
00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:47,320
So if you've been sensing that
it's time to stop circling your

29
00:01:47,320 --> 00:01:51,400
potential and start claiming it,
this episode will feel like a

30
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,160
loving nudge from the universe.
So now let's welcome Alexa

31
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:07,920
Fisher to the stage.
Hi there, Alexa, it's so good to

32
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,360
see you.
Hello.

33
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,720
Hello.
I'm truly delighted to be here.

34
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,480
Thank you so much for having me.
You are most welcome to be here

35
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,520
as my guest and I had recently
been your guest.

36
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,160
I had the honor of meeting you a
short while ago in your

37
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:27,360
beautiful studio office in Santa
Monica, Los Angeles, as well as

38
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,880
attending one of your beautiful
workshops.

39
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,560
And so I just knew that I had to
have you on because your work is

40
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,080
so meaningful.
And I love the phrase you are

41
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,600
the genie.
It's so playful and it's

42
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,840
radical.
I think that a lot of us have

43
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,160
been conditioned to wade and to
hope and to defer.

44
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,720
So at the Foundation, I would
love to talk about what you mean

45
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,480
by saying, hey, you are your own
genie.

46
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,040
What are we actually stepping
into?

47
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,760
Well, actually, I love how you
began this conversation because

48
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:01,520
I think it's a very human thing
to want to hedge our bets,

49
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,760
right?
We don't want to necessarily

50
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,480
take this big risk and risk
failing or wasting time or

51
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,480
wasting money.
And so I have found in my own

52
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,080
journey that when we truly
connect with our hearts and when

53
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,240
we really ask ourselves what are
we truly wanting, there is an

54
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,720
energy line, a power line, if
you will, a magical connection

55
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,840
and, and strength that comes
with that decision.

56
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,360
But we're all wrestling with
belief.

57
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,040
And so when I and we'll talk
about how I came up with the

58
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,600
idea for wish beads because like
I, I say, Alexa did not come up

59
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,000
with it.
It was given to me.

60
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:43,120
But when I really understood
that wishing is this powerful

61
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,080
thing that we all do
collectively, not everybody, but

62
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,240
so many people do to celebrate
the day of your birth.

63
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:55,080
There is something to that.
And yet society teaches us not

64
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,560
to believe it with so many of
the concepts that we have around

65
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:03,840
wishful thinking and watch what
you wish for and so wishy washy

66
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,840
whatever.
And yet when we really step back

67
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,240
and recognize that if we can
connect with that wish, this

68
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,920
wish contains so much power and
magic and nobody else can

69
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,959
activate that but us.
So you are the genie.

70
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:22,240
You are the one who can take
back your own power, where you

71
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,760
don't have to hope that you bump
into some magic lamp and then

72
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,680
you have to rub it and some.
Creature pops out, we're

73
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,960
actually completely.
We're completely reinventing

74
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,560
this idea to recognize our own
power within.

75
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,040
That's the genie.
Gorgeous.

76
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,400
Now do you relate to this as
manifestation or is this

77
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,440
something else?
Is this something deeper?

78
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,480
It's a great question.
And a lot of times people ask me

79
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,880
about manifestation, and there
is a part of me that recognizes

80
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,040
that manifestation is an
extension of the law of

81
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,040
attraction.
And if you think of the law of

82
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,320
attraction, you're really
talking about energy meeting

83
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,000
like energy.
I'll give a very sort of

84
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,800
rudimentary example of this.
We feel people's energy.

85
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,120
It's not a conscious thing.
Our bodies feel it.

86
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,440
So if someone were to walk into
your home right now and they

87
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,200
were going to be very aggressive
or very upset, your body would

88
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,120
have a reaction because your
energy is affected by their

89
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,400
energy.
In a way.

90
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,760
The thoughts that we have in our
head, if you are rooted in a

91
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,560
thought where you feel that the
world is against you, that

92
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,120
everything is bad, your mind is
literally scanning your

93
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:33,880
environment to recognize that
story and reinforce it.

94
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,280
So I used to say like, oh, the
traffic in LA is horrible.

95
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,160
What I was doing was actually
sitting in my car, assuming that

96
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,640
the traffic or the drivers or
whatever going to be very

97
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,560
aggressive, very obnoxious, very
whatever, but I would be looking

98
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:48,920
for it.
And so when something would

99
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,240
happen, I'd say there you go,
I'd reinforce my belief.

100
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,680
Now, when you recognize that
what you are setting your mind

101
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,040
to, you are attracting, you are
seeing, you are reinforcing,

102
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,280
then you recognize that you can
actually train your thoughts.

103
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,280
So when we train our thoughts
and we anchor them in the belief

104
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:12,160
of I see my wish, I feel this.
I can't wait to see the

105
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,160
manifestation or somebody
recognizing the light in me.

106
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,840
I see the light in them.
It's a vibe, it's an energy,

107
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,880
it's a perception shift.
And so when I think of

108
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,560
manifestation, I think of the
conscious choice to elevate my

109
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:31,000
energy and tune my mind to that
which I am desiring and I will

110
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,080
recognize it when I see it.
So this is really out of the

111
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,360
realm of woo woo, where you sit
back and you just think it and

112
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,320
and you just do nothing and it
just comes to you.

113
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,440
Sometimes I think that that's
the belief that people have

114
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,960
about manifestation.
Rather, I like to activate my

115
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,120
own willpower.
I like to activate my own genie

116
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,040
muscles.
I'd like to take my genie to the

117
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:57,000
gym and train my mind to see the
world where things are coming

118
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,240
toward me.
And then it's my job to build my

119
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,040
intuition to recognize and take
action toward them.

120
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,720
OK.
And so when you meet somebody,

121
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,240
for example, when we met, I felt
your energy, I asked questions,

122
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,560
I learned about your story, I
felt the synergies.

123
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:16,120
And so there is a manifestation
that's happening, but it really

124
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,000
is about attunement, recognition
and action.

125
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:24,160
It's a way of retraining your
mind so that you are building up

126
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,400
these new muscles of awareness,
of perception, of intuition.

127
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,840
And that's how things happen
because it builds upon itself.

128
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,720
And then suddenly that's just
who you are.

129
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,080
That's just who you are.
But we do have the power to

130
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,920
shift our thoughts and that's
exciting because it puts the

131
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,360
accountability on ourselves.
And again, we're not waiting for

132
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,680
somebody to grant us our wishes.
We are in collaboration and Co

133
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,440
creation with our wishes.
Listeners, you can tell what a

134
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,680
master Alexa is about this.
It's essentially like turning

135
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,960
wish and that waffling feeling,
that sentiment that you have

136
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,760
like, oh, it's escaping.
It's not really there, it's

137
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,840
fleeting.
It may or may not happen, but I

138
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,000
wish, I hope.
And there's a little bit of a

139
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,160
desperation there.
And Alexa teaches us how to turn

140
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:17,320
that wish into will, into actual
tangible life that you are

141
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,360
absolutely living.
And so this is interesting to

142
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,400
you.
Then do stay with us because we

143
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,120
are going to talk about the
difference between fantasy and

144
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,080
then aligned action.
And that's where it gets real.

145
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,760
OK, so let's talk about this
part because there is a big

146
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,600
difference between wishing and
creating.

147
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,919
So, Alexa, how do you help
people across that bridge?

148
00:08:39,159 --> 00:08:42,679
Oh, well, first of all, I just
want to call out, I love the

149
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,280
translation of turning some A
wish into Will.

150
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,200
I love that.
And I will tell you, I have

151
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,720
really differentiated the
difference between a wish and a

152
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,400
goal because we've all become
very goal oriented and we're

153
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,280
very comfortable with naming our
goals and mapping out our goals

154
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,800
and working with coaches to find
our one year, five year, 10 year

155
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,960
goals, all those things.
And I am a very goal oriented

156
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,360
person, but where I find the
secret sauce lies is a wish

157
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,600
comes from your heart and a goal
typically comes from your mind,

158
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,560
your brain.
That is the difference.

159
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:24,280
And we have built a cultural
acceptance towards goals and

160
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,240
that becomes the norm.
And we use that language in our

161
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,840
businesses.
We even use it in our personal

162
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,120
lives.
But a wish has some tenderness

163
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,520
because it is of the heart.
Now, when we are young, I

164
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,080
believe that we come into this
world with our hearts wide open

165
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,480
like I'm here and we're very
vulnerable.

166
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,360
We have to be cared for.
And then along the way, the

167
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,200
Earth school is actually pretty
rough and things happen.

168
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,640
And it's a scary, scary
situation down here at times.

169
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,680
And so we slowly, slowly begin
to build up walls around our

170
00:09:56,680 --> 00:09:59,680
heart to protect our heart.
And some of that protection

171
00:09:59,680 --> 00:10:02,440
makes sense.
It's certainly not ill advised.

172
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,520
You don't be wide open all the
time.

173
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,560
But what we don't realize is
that it happens so much that

174
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,720
people confess to me now that
I've been in the wish business,

175
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,480
that really the scary thing is
they don't even know what to

176
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,720
wish for.
And what that says to me is that

177
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,000
they have blocked their
connection to their heart for so

178
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,320
long that they don't know what
they desire.

179
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,360
And part of the learning, the
new learning process with

180
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,960
wishing, the way that I reinvent
the way we wish is to slowly,

181
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,280
slowly welcome people back to
their hearts, back to that

182
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,640
connection.
Because the way that I, I

183
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,520
understand wishing is that a
wish is like a seed that your

184
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,000
soul planted inside your heart
before you were born.

185
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,640
And inside this seed, it's
almost, you can imagine like a

186
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,760
tiny little map that you said,
you know what?

187
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,000
And you said in your soul form,
I'm going to come to the earth

188
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,920
and I'm going to play out these
things because this is my

189
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,840
intention.
In Buddhism, they call it the

190
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,640
Dharma.
This is what my mission is.

191
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,280
This is my work.
This is what it came here to

192
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,200
experience.
And it's all contained in your

193
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,800
wish.
But if we block our wishes, we

194
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,640
move that awareness into our
minds and we detach from our

195
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,960
hearts.
So wishing contains this

196
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:19,200
invitation to just gently come
back to your heart to build a

197
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,160
sense of childlike wonder.
Back to the question, if you

198
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,880
were living your wish as if it
already came true, what would

199
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,880
that look like?
What would it feel like?

200
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,560
So you have to begin by giving
yourself permission to do just

201
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:34,720
that.
I'm going to share a very

202
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,640
personal story which harpens
back to like inner child healing

203
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,800
and I've moved past it.
A lot of times we say tell the

204
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,320
story from our scars, not our
wounds.

205
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,120
And I assure you all that this
is a scar and not a wound.

206
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,840
But there is this real situation
when I was younger and I was

207
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,200
doing some homework and a family
member looked at it and said,

208
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,640
what the heck, You got almost
everything wrong.

209
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,440
And then somebody said, God, she
is so stupid.

210
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,120
And that stuck with and I
remember it was almost like that

211
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,080
moment when I felt like
everything moving to my head,

212
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:14,680
like I had to like armor up and
like and forget about the I had

213
00:12:14,680 --> 00:12:18,880
to show I had to perform.
And I became hyper vigilant, did

214
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,320
the whole MBA Business School
thing every just like I felt

215
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,920
like I was overcompensating in
that direction because I was

216
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:31,600
trying to avoid feeling stupid.
And it stayed with me for a long

217
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,120
time until I realized that that
a voice from long ago and I

218
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,600
forgave the voice and all of
those things that you do when

219
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,440
you unravel all these things in
therapy.

220
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,200
But that is the interesting
thing, how the world can shift

221
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,080
us from our hearts and even our
guts, our intuition to the head.

222
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,960
And we get so focused on head
because we feel that we have to

223
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,720
perform.
We feel that we have to have

224
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,440
goals.
If we don't, then we're not

225
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,640
intelligent and we won't make it
in our careers.

226
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:04,560
And so there is this sense that
there is an imbalance towards

227
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:07,240
potentially that there's the
three brains that had the heart

228
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,800
and the gut.
And sometimes we dismiss in

229
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:15,400
society the heart and the gut
and we over emphasize the brain,

230
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,880
you know, the head.
And so here we are divinely

231
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:24,200
saying that it's OK to recognize
that it is not weakness to

232
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:29,120
think, I say think, but to feel
with your heart, to listen to

233
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,960
the gut, to really utilize all
of these beautiful aspects of

234
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,000
you that may have been
suppressed or ignored through

235
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,120
conditioning in your life.
And So what Alexa is sharing now

236
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,960
with wishing and dreaming and
hoping and becoming and allowing

237
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:50,400
and having will and having that
true belief in you that you are

238
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,960
enough, that's where the magic
happens.

239
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,520
So I just wanted to take that
slight detour and share that

240
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,600
story because it really landed
for me.

241
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,360
MMM.
Absolutely.

242
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,560
And I thank you for the for
sharing that.

243
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:06,440
And I also love the scar and not
the wound because it's a

244
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:11,320
beautiful remembrance of what so
many people and even if a parent

245
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,600
or a family member thinks that
they're doing some kind of favor

246
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,120
by saying.
Something.

247
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,120
Those imprints in our mind and
our heart can really shape us.

248
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,720
And it's true.
And it's never too late to

249
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,200
rewrite your story, to go back
and use techniques and therapies

250
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:30,280
and methodologies, to be free
from that and recognize that

251
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,320
story that was given to you,
that you took as your own, that

252
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,960
you took as the truth that can
be changed.

253
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,040
And I often think about the
film, I don't know if you

254
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,200
remember this film.
Life is beautiful and.

255
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,440
It was one of my favorites.
A powerful, powerful film, but

256
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,000
essentially, if you've to anyone
watching and listening who has

257
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,040
never seen it before, the
premise is a father for the sake

258
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,000
of his son.
They're in a concentration camp

259
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,480
and he convinces his young son
that it's all a game.

260
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:03,960
He creates this illusion to
carry this child's spirit

261
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,280
through this horrific
experience.

262
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:11,160
And I go back to it because
again, it is a conscious choice

263
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:15,840
to navigate whatever is going
on, to hard fire your spirit, to

264
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,880
optimism.
Because that again, we're going

265
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,080
to go back to quantum physics.
We're going to go back to energy

266
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,880
meeting like energy.
Something in that divine

267
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,920
benevolence carries this soul
through this experience, even

268
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:31,160
though it's not the truth, the
truth as we see it, because so

269
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:36,240
many things happen below our
level of awareness, so much

270
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,800
magic.
And our society has convinced

271
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,840
everybody that the truth is what
we can see, what we can measure,

272
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,280
what is right in front of our
noses.

273
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,800
And it's nonsense.
Like I'm looking at these

274
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,960
beautiful trees outside and the
magic that's happening with the

275
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,440
rain falling on them and the
photosynthesis and the growth

276
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,240
and the.
I don't know how any of it's

277
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,600
happening.
I can't see it.

278
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,640
I can't see all of the trillions
of things that are keeping me

279
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,080
alive and breathing and the
mitochondria and all the, I

280
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,360
can't see the, does it mean
they're not real?

281
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,840
So I mean, I could go on and on
about this, but my point is that

282
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:16,920
I think we could all use a
beautiful dose of humility to

283
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,120
recognize that when we are
putting ourselves in a more

284
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,480
positive mindset, even when we
are facing difficult things, it

285
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,600
is a gift not only to ourselves,
but our energy is contributing

286
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,960
to the energy around us, to the
people, to the planet, to the

287
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,560
consciousness.
And so wishing is not a selfish

288
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,160
act, not at all.
Wishing is our birthright.

289
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,960
Our happiness is our birthright.
And when we wish, we change the

290
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,000
energy of ourselves, which
changes everybody around us.

291
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,800
So that's another topic, but.
Yeah, and it's beautiful.

292
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:56,320
And I think about how energy and
that the way that we might react

293
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,600
to some sort of causality may in
fact be the blockage.

294
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,079
But I love how you mentioned you
have an active choice.

295
00:17:04,079 --> 00:17:07,680
I am a firm believer of radical
responsibility and agency.

296
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,200
You're not the victim here.
We do victimize ourselves and we

297
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,200
project some sort of persecutor
in.

298
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,480
At the case of my example, I
might say, oh, it was that

299
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,280
family member and how dare that
whole thing.

300
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,040
I could live my life in that
way, and perhaps I did for a

301
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,680
period of time until we wake up
and say, no, I actually have the

302
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,440
power to choose.
You know what, I'm going to be

303
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,160
happy.
I want to live joy forward.

304
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,200
I want to live heart forward.
I am going to live my life

305
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,680
deterministically based upon my
wish, not other people's wishes,

306
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,400
not what other people should
think of me or how I should be.

307
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:46,000
And I will love.
My choice is truly to be one

308
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,840
that understands and recognizes
and has compassion for those

309
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,840
voices, has self compassion for
if I might have fallen for it

310
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,840
and learns, OK, here is a moment
in time.

311
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,120
There is only my future to
create.

312
00:17:59,120 --> 00:18:04,120
I can design the life that I
want to live from this moment

313
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,560
forward.
All fresh, All fresh.

314
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:11,360
Yes, and I think that's one of
the things that I really so

315
00:18:11,360 --> 00:18:14,440
admire about you.
I see in the brief time that

316
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,640
we've known each other, how you
live your life through the lens

317
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,960
of love.
And so by all rights, you have

318
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:25,040
taken your life journey and
you've created beauty from it

319
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,720
and to have the courage to
create the books and the just

320
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,760
the work that you do in the
world and the person that you

321
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,880
are in the world.
And I think that that is a

322
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:37,320
shining example that by making
the choice to lean in with love

323
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,280
and look at whatever situation
that you're presented with and

324
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,640
ask yourself, what am I meant to
learn?

325
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:48,560
And it's not to say that we all
want life to be easy and to have

326
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,000
right.
You know, it's sometimes our

327
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,640
biggest life lessons come from
our hardest challenges.

328
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,520
And I stood in awe as certainly
one of my friends, Glodine

329
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:02,760
Champion, she was diagnosed with
stage 4 lung cancer with the

330
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,680
appearance of brain lesions like
it.

331
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,440
If you Google that for all of 20
seconds, you would realize that

332
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,080
this is a very serious
diagnosis.

333
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,360
And yet after the initial kind
of shock of the diagnosis

334
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:17,680
itself, she navigated through
her healing journey with that

335
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,480
one question, what am I meant to
learn?

336
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:24,880
And she that openness.
This is the same energy of

337
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,520
wishing this just divine
curiosity.

338
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:32,440
The presence of the fragility of
life was so part of her process

339
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,320
that in her healing, in her
treatments that you did and the

340
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,640
way she showed up with energy
into her her treatments and the

341
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,160
way that she dialogued with the
nurses and the doctors and all

342
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,280
this stuff.
I don't know how this happened,

343
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:52,840
but she's in full remission and
she, I think of her and her,

344
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,440
that question whenever I'm
confronted with all of the

345
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,160
decisions of life, of all the
challenges in life, because

346
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,640
everybody has challenges, even
if it looks like on Instagram

347
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,320
that they don't.
Right.

348
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:09,000
They do, but what am I meant to
learn?

349
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,880
Is really the playground that we
want to live in?

350
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,960
And what am I meant to discover
and how good is it going to get?

351
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:22,160
What is the best case scenario?
And it goes back to where is the

352
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,080
lens of your life?
Most of us have been programmed

353
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,080
to think and we say all the
time, I mean, what's the worst

354
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,840
that could happen?
That's the default, what's the

355
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,200
worst that could happen?
But imagine if we were society

356
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,520
to present ideas and say, well,
what's the best that could

357
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,920
happen?
And that feels weird because we

358
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,960
don't say it.
Now it's time for us to say it

359
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,240
because we are the dreamers.
And if we want to dream and wish

360
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:48,680
into a new world, it is time for
us to recognize what is truly

361
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,800
meaningful, what success really
is.

362
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,760
Because if there's one thing
that these Epstein files have

363
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,960
revealed is that what we thought
was successful, right?

364
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,120
Not successful.
Not successful power.

365
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,360
Reckoning.
Big reckoning, people.

366
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,760
Big reckoning.
Some of the biggest minds in

367
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,040
mindfulness.
I'm looking at you, Deepak

368
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,760
Chopra.
Sorry, I just got to say it.

369
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,160
It is time for people to not
just sit in anger and rage and

370
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,760
sort of disbelief rather, what
are we meant to learn?

371
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:26,120
What are we meant to learn?
Because there is what I know

372
00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:29,400
that we can do today is take
ownership of ourselves.

373
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,880
And so when we take that
ownership and we look around our

374
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,280
homes and our families and our
businesses and our and say, how

375
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,200
can I pour a little more love
into myself, into my family,

376
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,400
into my bit?
How can we create the best case

377
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:47,560
scenario?
But yes, the reckoning is the

378
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,320
beginning of the revolution.
That is really remarkable and

379
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,800
beautiful.
I want to talk about the

380
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,640
embodiment or the act of wishing
and what that does and what that

381
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:03,480
feels like because I think that
there may be a feeling that

382
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,880
wishing is like anticipation and
like I want to hear you describe

383
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,960
it in your words.
What, I hate to say the word

384
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:15,320
optimal or like what is a great
wish versus one that is not

385
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,920
necessarily what you're thinking
of in terms of the energy that

386
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,640
you want to embody when you are
wishing.

387
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,800
Could you take us through a
little bit of that?

388
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,920
Yes, well, that's sort of a
multi pronged question.

389
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,200
It is.
It is.

390
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,200
Yeah, no, we'll break it down
like this.

391
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:36,160
I will tell you the ways in
which I teach wishing and we'll

392
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,280
start there.
And so when we think about

393
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,760
wishing, it's like in society
now and sort of of how we've

394
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,080
thought about it, we've got a
couple of different ways that we

395
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,680
wish right now.
And that is around the birth,

396
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,760
your birthday candle.
But you're given a very brief

397
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,680
moment and it kind of feels a
little performative, right?

398
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,600
So on your birthday, someone
presents you with a cake and you

399
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,120
see those little candles.
And maybe there's a moment where

400
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,000
in a performative kind of way,
you're like, oh, what's my wish?

401
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:01,440
But you haven't really thought
about it.

402
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:02,960
It's just sort of something that
happens.

403
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:04,000
Very quickly.
You.

404
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,400
Maybe you close your eyes, but
the intention is that you're

405
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,280
closing your eyes, which is an
invitation to go inward.

406
00:23:10,360 --> 00:23:12,120
Perhaps you're checking with
your heart.

407
00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:13,960
Maybe it goes to your mind, What
do I want?

408
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,400
And then you're taking action.
You're blowing out a candle in

409
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,760
other ways.
Maybe you pass by a fountain,

410
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,160
you see a bunch of pennies on
the bottom and you think I'm

411
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,880
going to make a wish.
Maybe you give yourself a little

412
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,400
more time.
If you're the kind of person

413
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,760
who's going to throw away your
money into a thing, a public

414
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,000
thing of water, maybe you give
yourself a little more time and

415
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,080
then you toss it.
Maybe you're having a

416
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,880
contemplative moment looking up
at the stars and you see a

417
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,840
falling star and you feel like,
OK, I'm going to make a wish.

418
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,920
All of these are pretty
fleeting.

419
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,520
When I share the resources or I
lead experiences in my wish

420
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,120
circles, I guide people through
a visualization.

421
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,040
So if you've meditated before,
meditation is simply an

422
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,240
intentional time to quiet your
mind.

423
00:23:58,360 --> 00:24:00,840
Maybe connect with your breath,
connect with your heart, connect

424
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,800
with something outside yourself,
like a flame or a dot on the

425
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,120
wall.
But the idea is to quiet your

426
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,000
chatter, chatter, chatterbox
mind, and come back to the

427
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,280
presence of you, the energy of
you.

428
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:15,160
And this is a practice.
You can't just start meditating

429
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,640
once and think, well, I did that
or I'm not a meditator.

430
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:22,160
It actually takes practice to
allow to have that moment where

431
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,120
you're quieting your mind,
coming back into your body and

432
00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:27,480
awakening presence.
For those of you who might be

433
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,840
new to this, I would recommend
listening to Eckhart Tolles, The

434
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,480
Power of Now just as a way to
come in.

435
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,920
I think he does a beautiful job
as a teacher and as a person.

436
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,240
But wishing, when I teach
wishing and I guide people

437
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,320
through the experience, it's a
guided visualization.

438
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,680
And that usually when I do them,
I do offer them as monthly

439
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,560
virtual wish circles.
But essentially you're imagining

440
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,680
sort of de stressing your body,
so sort of relaxing any tension

441
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,640
you might be holding in your
body and your mind and releasing

442
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,640
that so you can kind of bring
your awareness back inward.

443
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,680
Then I invite people to imagine
and connect with the light

444
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,280
around their hearts, and this
light grows so much that it

445
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,120
actually forms, almost like a
little movie projector.

446
00:25:09,120 --> 00:25:12,600
Your light is shining onto a
screen and you're imagining a

447
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,480
moment.
Now, here's what I always

448
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,920
preface before we begin never to
judge the experience because we

449
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,200
all have conscious wishes.
Maybe there are things that

450
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,960
we're wanting to change in our
personal life or our financial

451
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,160
life or our business life.
But when we are doing a guided

452
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,560
visualization, in a way you're
trusting yourself to have an

453
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,200
experience.
So if something is shown to you,

454
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,840
and I'll get to the clause, the
asterisk, which is some people

455
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,600
are not visual.
And so I'll talk about that in a

456
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,560
moment.
But in the experience, perhaps

457
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,760
you're seeing a moment that you
didn't anticipate.

458
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,960
And it's not like this is
fortune telling.

459
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,920
So if you see something that
you're like, wait a minute, I

460
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,840
don't want that.
And I'll tell you a story about

461
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,160
when that happened to somebody
who kind of freaked out.

462
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,720
All it is, is with curiosity,
not criticism.

463
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,400
You just have the experience and
that as I got guide you, I

464
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,400
invite you to awaken your senses
in your minds eye and to see

465
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,360
something, to feel something, to
touch something, to recognize

466
00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:11,040
what are you wearing.
And all of these are like little

467
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:15,080
clues that can show you the
essence of what you're ready to

468
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,120
bring into your life right now.
So it works in a number of

469
00:26:18,120 --> 00:26:20,640
different ways.
They can give you a very

470
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,920
specific insight into what
you're ready to call in, whether

471
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,720
it's a beautiful Hawaiian
vacation or a new home or the

472
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,760
energy or the presence of a new
partner in your life, whatever

473
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,040
the case may be.
But there's also other details

474
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,760
that tell a story.
But let's say, for example,

475
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,520
you're wearing, I'll just get
this one just popped into my

476
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,240
head.
But many years ago, I in a wish

477
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,160
circle, I saw myself wearing a
toe ring.

478
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,800
I was like, I don't wear a toe
ring.

479
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,560
It didn't even occur me to wear
a toe ring.

480
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,480
This worked in a couple of
different ways.

481
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,400
These are like symbols.
So I thought, I thought to

482
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,960
myself afterward as I with
curiosity, contemplated what

483
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,360
these aspect meant.
I was barefoot.

484
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,360
It was somewhere super in
nature.

485
00:27:01,360 --> 00:27:04,240
It was like it felt like camp.
I'll talk about that in a

486
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,200
minute.
And the toe ring made me feel

487
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,600
like I was like super goddess
grounded, earthy, like it had a

488
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,360
vibe and an energy to it.
Yeah.

489
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,200
Now about a year later, So on
one hand, so one, I got a toe

490
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,440
ring 2 because that that's not
hard to make your wish come

491
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:20,960
true.
I just.

492
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,760
Was like it is.
What does it feel like if it's

493
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,240
just a toe ring on my on my toe,
which is kind of cool.

494
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:31,400
But the other thing was year
about a year later, I had an

495
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,440
opportunity to Co lead as a
facilitator at another event.

496
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,040
And as I was getting to know
this individual and we were

497
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,920
talking one morning and it was
casual and it was out in the

498
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,120
earth.
It was very earthy.

499
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:46,600
It was sort of a camp setting.
I looked down and she's wearing

500
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,800
a toe ring.
So these are these little clues

501
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:56,240
and coincidences, coincidences
that I think allow you to see

502
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,400
that you are supported, that
when you open up your

503
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:03,560
perception, you are going to
recognize these little clues

504
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,880
that you're in alignment.
So going back to your wish, it

505
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,120
does offer sort of a pin in the
map of your destiny, meaning

506
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,320
this is this thing that your
heart is ready to call in, these

507
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,400
clues, this energy, this
feeling.

508
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,920
And you can use it in two ways.
One, you can consciously,

509
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,120
actively work towards making
that experience happen for

510
00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:26,840
yourself and then see how you
feel, even if it takes time.

511
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:31,200
And you can also bring elements
of it into your life right now

512
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,880
as a visual reminder to connect
you to the energy of your wish.

513
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,880
So for one, I mean, if I've LED
literally thousands of people

514
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,600
through this, but I had one
woman who did a wish circle with

515
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,440
me and she saw herself on this
big Ferris wheel, Yes, exactly.

516
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,560
Anyway, And it had a whole story
around it.

517
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,760
She was telling me this story,
her whole face softened and she

518
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,880
had this like just this glow
about her.

519
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,880
And I said one of the things
that you can do is find an image

520
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,880
of what you're seeing.
This Ferris wheel that was at

521
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,800
night and it was all lit up.
Just find an image, any image

522
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,640
online and then take that image
and put it on your phone.

523
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,800
And then every time you pick up
your phone, you have a visual

524
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,440
clue that is going to connect
you to your heart and that

525
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,760
energy of your wish.
Now, on a tangible level, she

526
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:20,800
can go create that vacation or
destiny for her, for her family

527
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,880
to actually experience that.
And that's very powerful in and

528
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,760
of itself.
But it's the energy that you can

529
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,480
bring into your life right now,
which means you can in a way

530
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,520
make those wishes come true.
And you're setting yourself up

531
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,720
vibrationally to connect with
that energy throughout the day

532
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,640
by those visual clues.
And that's actually what Wish

533
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,440
Beads is all about.
It's a visual clue because your

534
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,880
wishes connected or tucked
inside these cylinders or

535
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,360
written on the paper that
connects you back to that story.

536
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:53,080
So that that in life as you are
woo and life as you are

537
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,200
navigating all of the stresses,
which is part of being human,

538
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,400
you can go back to those visual
clues to just remind yourself,

539
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:04,640
yes, this is what I am about.
This is what I am anchoring my

540
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,440
mind, my heart towards, and this
is what I am quote UN quote

541
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,800
attracting.
Hmm, excellent, excellent.

542
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:15,880
So the vision board or a visual
cue helps to activate and get

543
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,120
you into the energy of making
your wish come true.

544
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,800
Do you think that it happens
faster or slow?

545
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,560
Or do you think that just let
the quantum of the universe

546
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,960
works in mysterious ways and.
Yeah, I.

547
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,320
Think versus just like the
fleeting thought like, oh, I

548
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,480
wish.
I mean, is it further off if you

549
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,960
don't, you know, kind of get
that energy and bring it towards

550
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,200
you as you've described?
Well, I think that there's

551
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:46,440
energy, but then there's action.
And in 2019, I published a book

552
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,440
called the wish Work.
And in addition to wishing,

553
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,680
because I like action, I'm an
entrepreneur by nature.

554
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,080
I'm a teacher by nature.
And so I think there's always

555
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,480
homework to do and why?
Because I want to make sure that

556
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,520
I'm giving everything I've got
to, to make those wishes come

557
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,480
true.
Because I, I believe that we're,

558
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,880
you know, your, your, your
energy goes.

559
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,400
What's that phrase?
Where your, where your

560
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,800
attention, where your, where
your energy flows energy.

561
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:13,920
Flows, boom.
Yeah.

562
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,120
OK.
So the idea is that on one hand,

563
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,240
yes, you can, you can visualize
it, you can claim it, you can

564
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,120
name it, you can write about it.
All of these are very important

565
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,600
things.
And when you do a little work,

566
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,760
hence the wish work, you are
going to see for yourself,

567
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,600
you're going to build those
genie muscles.

568
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,960
You are going to see that there
are there is momentum that is

569
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,760
built, there is energy flowing.
So I believe that you will you

570
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,600
will achieve those wishes much
faster and you will also

571
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,760
recognize that you are more
capable.

572
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,160
So if you can do it with this
one wish, well, then you can do

573
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:47,920
it with your home remodel.
Then you can do it with

574
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,560
revamping your your resume,
which is going to help you get

575
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,760
those job interviews, which is
going to help you get a new job.

576
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,200
It's help you go to a networking
event.

577
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,440
So these are this is how you
build the momentum wish work

578
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:02,120
itself is a 21 day experience
where each day you are given a

579
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,360
very simple game to play with
life.

580
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,320
The first day is literally
called time to smile.

581
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,840
And the invitation for this wish
work prompt is to notice 3

582
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,280
smiles and consciously decide.
Because many of us walk around

583
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,480
in life just sort of with either
a default or maybe a scowl or

584
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,240
maybe we're worried.
But when you consciously decide

585
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,040
to connect with another human
and offer a smile, energy

586
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,760
shifts.
Now I'll tell you a story

587
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,440
because I think this is the one
that that, well, this was shared

588
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,160
with me by but one of my
customers.

589
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:36,080
And as I said, swipe left on
profiles without a smile.

590
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,080
Boom.
Anyway, and you were saying?

591
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:43,840
It's true.
It's an energy.

592
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,200
Just throw that in there, yeah?
Smile is a reflection of your

593
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,600
spirit.
It is your like billboard that

594
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,080
says yes, here I am universe,
let's go.

595
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,600
It's soothy smile.
Just let it out, love it, let

596
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:57,360
the joy flow.
Oh.

597
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,360
Baby, exactly.
That's who I want to hang out

598
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,200
with.
But there was a woman who wrote

599
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,560
to me and her girlfriend.
They were taking a girls weekend

600
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,600
and her girl had decided to get
Everybody Wish beads in advance.

601
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,400
And she got my recording of the
guided visualization.

602
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,040
She got Everybody wish
workbooks.

603
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,520
And the whole idea was to create
this sort of culmination

604
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:20,800
celebration of each other's
wishes at the end of the

605
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,280
weekend.
So they did that.

606
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,800
But the woman who wrote me was
like, look, I loved my bracelet.

607
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,240
I was a little skeptical of the
wish work thing.

608
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,360
But the next day in the airport,
I was sitting there and I had

609
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,240
plenty of time before my flight.
So she told me that she opened

610
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,040
up the book and started reading,
you know, reading, reading the

611
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,320
book and then got to day one,
which was called time to smile.

612
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,160
And she thought to herself, she
almost double dared the

613
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,120
universe.
She was like, uh huh, I don't

614
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,560
know about any of this.
So she's like, fine, I'll do it.

615
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,120
I've got time.
I'm sitting here at the airport.

616
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,880
So she looks up and she scans
the the terminal and everybody

617
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,640
has their head down.
I'm talking everybody.

618
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,600
They've got their head buried in
their phone.

619
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,680
There's nobody is looking at
anybody else.

620
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,840
So she's first noticed this is
crazy.

621
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,640
Nobody is looking.
Everybody is like drowning in

622
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,960
their own story.
OK, But she finally scans and

623
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,360
she spies like a four, four year
old boy, 5 year old little boy

624
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,840
and they lock eyes and she
decides to smile at him.

625
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:17,840
That's the prompt, you know,
just smile at somebody.

626
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,960
This little boy marches right
over to her, stands right in

627
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,400
front of her and says you are
the best person ever.

628
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,080
She was like, what witchcraft is
this?

629
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:36,960
No, I don't know why that little
boy did that.

630
00:34:37,159 --> 00:34:43,360
However, something unlocked in
her that was like, whoa, this is

631
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,480
wild.
And that's just that blast that

632
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,920
you need to have the courage to
keep going.

633
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:53,199
And we've all had those moments
when someone says to us, like, I

634
00:34:53,199 --> 00:34:55,040
just had the craziest thing
happened.

635
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,120
Like I was just thinking about
you and you called her.

636
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,160
And that's when you start to
become a believer.

637
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,880
That's when you start to say
this stuff is something is

638
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:08,560
happening here that I am not
aware of that like this is wild.

639
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,440
I am more supported than I
realize.

640
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,520
And that gives you that blast of
encouragement to keep going,

641
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,320
keep going.
So that's what the wish work

642
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,640
does for you.
It takes your genie to the gym.

643
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,400
It makes you go, OK, well, let's
do this, let's go.

644
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,480
And then when you walk into
events, let's say for example,

645
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,320
you are already in alignment to
be like, come on universe, show

646
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,680
me who I'm meant to meet.
You are just ready.

647
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,800
And that's when this is comes
back to the manifestation law of

648
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,480
attraction.
You are tuning your energy to

649
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,680
look for the magic.
The magic is going to find you.

650
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,880
The coincidences, the
opportunities, the alignments,

651
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:44,240
the things that you're supposed
to notice.

652
00:35:44,240 --> 00:35:46,720
But it takes practice, and
that's what the wish work does.

653
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:52,200
And the wish work is grounded in
almost like these rituals.

654
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,440
It's like you create these
beautiful symbols, these

655
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,000
talismans of your wish so that
your attention is going to them.

656
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,560
You're wearing them, ladies and
gents, beautiful humans.

657
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:05,760
I've got my paper beads on that
I made in Alexa's workshop where

658
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:09,040
we actually wrote wishes down
and we created these gorgeous.

659
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:10,400
I don't know if you can see
them.

660
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:14,040
I'm going to get closer, but
there's a handwriting on each of

661
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,760
these paper beads so that I can
wear it and remember what my

662
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,680
wish is.
Inside these wish bracelets is a

663
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:26,240
cute little secret compartment
where you can actually, yes,

664
00:36:26,240 --> 00:36:30,080
there you go, There you go.
I have a scroll where I have

665
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,080
written A wish inside and I've
tucked it in here and I keep it

666
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,040
close to my body so that I can
touch it.

667
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,920
I can feel it.
I can remember the wish.

668
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,320
And you told us a beautiful
story when we were together

669
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,800
about this gorgeous Insignia,
which is.

670
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,480
On yes.
Which is the wish feed logo?

671
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,440
Can you share that?
Yes, absolutely.

672
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:57,000
I had the pleasure of working
with a phenomenal designer when

673
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,440
I was first launching the
business.

674
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:03,240
Her name is Satoko Ferruta, and
she asked me when I was, you

675
00:37:03,240 --> 00:37:06,760
know, starting my company.
So what is Wish Beads all about?

676
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,640
Like what was the inspiration?
And I had shared with her, she

677
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,440
happens to be Japanese American,
but I was sharing her sharing

678
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:16,240
with her that that my philosophy
around wishing was anchored in a

679
00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:20,000
few ironically Japanese
principles. 1 is wabi sabi,

680
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,160
which is the art of
imperfection.

681
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,800
So there are there's this idea
that we think we're all striving

682
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,760
for something that's perfect,
but actually we're beautifully

683
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,880
unique and imperfect and that's
what makes us beautiful.

684
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,680
So there's no such thing as the
perfect wish.

685
00:37:34,720 --> 00:37:39,560
It's this beautiful, bumpy, wild
Rd. of life and we are to

686
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:43,920
celebrate the art of that.
The next was I shared with her

687
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:47,360
the principle of Kaizen.
Kaizen is about the art of

688
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,960
continual improvement and the
idea that when you are wishing

689
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,720
you are improving yourself, you
are saying yes to this journey

690
00:37:54,720 --> 00:37:57,960
of self discovery, which has
always been a huge part of the

691
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,240
work that I do both personally
and professionally.

692
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,080
And then the third thing was at
the time I was practicing

693
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:07,040
Ishinru karate, which is a
Japanese form of karate.

694
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,760
I also practice Aikido.
And so anyway, I was sharing

695
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:13,200
with her that these are the
energies behind Wish Beads and

696
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,240
the work that I'm doing.
And she said, so she came back

697
00:38:16,240 --> 00:38:19,240
and she showed me the wish Beads
logo.

698
00:38:19,240 --> 00:38:22,160
I don't happen to have a box
with me to show you what it is,

699
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:26,120
but essentially it looks like it
looks like the sign of the woman

700
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:32,640
but on its side, and it's the
stylized Japanese kanji for wish

701
00:38:32,720 --> 00:38:35,600
granted like it's a done deal.
Thank you.

702
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:40,720
It's also indicative of the
Egyptian ank, which is the sign

703
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,560
of life.
So there's a lot of probably

704
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,240
more sacred energy that I'm
aware of.

705
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:51,920
But that was the that was the
evolution or the the birth of

706
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,000
our our logo.
Oh, I love that and I love how

707
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,040
you're so respectful to the
elements and just the beauty of

708
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:03,800
nature and just the the fact
that we are so entwined and in

709
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,640
unity with nature.
I see the beautiful wood that

710
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,840
you have behind you.
You make wish wands out of these

711
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:14,000
beautiful wooden rods and wrap
them with crystals and feathers

712
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,800
and, and, and have a beautiful
workshop and rituals around that

713
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,800
as well.
And yeah, there is a sacredness

714
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:24,600
that and a beauty and a
reverence for the work.

715
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,040
And that's how I love that
you're creating these magical

716
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:31,680
rituals, if you will, and making
them special so that they light

717
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,000
us.
There's something that does

718
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,440
spark the inner child in us when
we're, you know, kind of playing

719
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:40,000
in the woods or feeling like
we've got crystals and things

720
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,360
that are magical and whimsical
around.

721
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:46,560
And that energy, I think, is
also part of the the joy of the

722
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,360
experience as well.
Yes, I thank you.

723
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,600
I, you know, I think you when
you recognize that you are

724
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,720
creating what you are desiring.
I think that wish club, which is

725
00:39:56,720 --> 00:39:59,480
my new space in Santa Monica
where I host events and

726
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:03,200
workshops and wish circles was
really this playground for

727
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:07,160
possibility.
And I I think especially since

728
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:12,200
this post COVID world when we
all were squirreled away in

729
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,640
home.
That the craving for human

730
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,720
connection was so real and I was
hungry for it.

731
00:40:17,720 --> 00:40:21,920
And I think that it's a healthy
way for humans to recognize how

732
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,240
powerful we are.
You know, we we are now living

733
00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:27,920
in the birth of AI.
And so I believe there will be a

734
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:32,200
returning to the preciousness
and reverence of the earth and

735
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:36,200
being a earthling of being
together to be creative, to

736
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:40,200
recognize that we are so strong
in community.

737
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,600
And so when I was presented with
the opportunity to get this new

738
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,160
space in Santa Monica, I
immediately jumped in and I

739
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,800
thought, let's create Wish Club.
Let's create a space where these

740
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,160
kinds of activities can come
together.

741
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,720
Not just in the rituals that we
do with, with found objects and

742
00:40:58,720 --> 00:41:02,640
crystals and paper bead wish
beads and all of that, but also

743
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:06,280
in those activities that, you
know, that bring joy, that bring

744
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:10,080
connection.
And so we just did, we're doing

745
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,280
Mahjong Monday and we had a huge
group on Monday.

746
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:19,160
And it's so fun to listen to the
laughter and the music and the

747
00:41:19,240 --> 00:41:21,760
camaraderie.
And it's like Monday night, you

748
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,000
know, from 7:00 to 9:00.
It's the perfect way to start

749
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,480
your week.
I just, I just signed, I just

750
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,560
hired a line dancer to come.
Why?

751
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,480
Because that's fun.
But I also have, you know,

752
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,640
energy healers come a beautiful
sound practitioner named Christy

753
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,960
Christensen does regular
workshops.

754
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:45,360
So the idea that we come
together to really build that

755
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,080
support so that we are not just
hoping that our wish comes true

756
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,760
or doing it secretly and not
telling anybody that forget it

757
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,600
because it doesn't it doesn't
even make sense when we do

758
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,840
things in community and you have
those opportunities to ask

759
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,200
questions.
We have an event that I host for

760
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,000
Wish Club members called Wish
Work Wednesday where you're

761
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,320
literally coming in and we talk
about how's it going towards

762
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,520
your wish, what action are you
taking, where are you stuck, How

763
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,840
can we help and that's where.
Like an accountability buddy.

764
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:19,600
Yeah, absolutely, absolutely.
Because I know that my biggest

765
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,120
wishes, they come, they happen
because other people help me.

766
00:42:23,720 --> 00:42:26,400
It's not all up to me.
Nothing happens without another

767
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,120
human being to support you.
Nothing in life.

768
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,080
Nothing.
And yet because of that

769
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,880
tenderness, going back to the
the tender way that we protect

770
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,400
our heart, we don't want to
share that wish because how is

771
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,000
it going to feel if it doesn't
come true?

772
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,920
But how's it going to feel if
you never try?

773
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,960
You're going to leave the planet
with regrets.

774
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,720
And that's that's not OK.
It's courageous work.

775
00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:49,080
And I love that you are a
building community.

776
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:52,720
And you have talked about the
power of communal wishing.

777
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,280
And, you know, people coming
together as a collective to, you

778
00:42:56,280 --> 00:43:00,480
know, do this work to support
each other, to cheer each other

779
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,040
on and for people to be bold
enough to stand up and say, this

780
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,240
is my wish.
And you never know who in the

781
00:43:07,240 --> 00:43:10,520
group is like I know somebody or
I can do that or I can help you

782
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,440
with that.
And the networking is there.

783
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,560
The universe brings together
your collection of angels, you

784
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,720
know, in in human form and non
human form.

785
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,800
And they they beckon to your
genie call.

786
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,240
They really.
They do I mean that's the magic

787
00:43:25,240 --> 00:43:27,880
and you're you're the lamp,
you're the one rubbing the lamp

788
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,080
you're the genie that's popping
out It's all you, right?

789
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,600
It's you in concert with the
world.

790
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,800
And the more that people do
that, we can have these quantum,

791
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,360
you know, shifts and solutions
and creativity and all of it

792
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,400
that we are wanting, that we are
hungry for.

793
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,560
And now is our time.
Now is our time.

794
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,600
And I think for those who are
listening, this is probably a

795
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,080
sign from the universe because
there's usually this moment when

796
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:54,960
in our lives we feel summoned or
we feel like there's something

797
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,480
goading us on or something
calling to us.

798
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:01,720
It might not be loud, it might
be persistent, we might not have

799
00:44:01,720 --> 00:44:05,880
been listening deeply enough.
But maybe this is a sign that

800
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:10,320
you are able to to hear it a
little bit more clearly.

801
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,040
So I wanted to ask you, Alexa,
how do you think that we know

802
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,520
when life is inviting us into a
bigger version of ourselves?

803
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,720
I mean, I don't really know that
there's ever a moment where

804
00:44:21,720 --> 00:44:25,480
that's not happening.
I I think that there's a

805
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,360
readiness and you can recognize
the readiness.

806
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,880
There are seasons in our lives
where maybe we're taking more of

807
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,560
a listening mode instead of an
action mode.

808
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,360
I know that we've just moved
into the Chinese New Year of the

809
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,960
Fire Horse, so there's a lot of
conversation around like

810
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:47,040
actually, Benjamin, go, go, go.
And yet I think that developing

811
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:50,680
a relationship with your own
intuition is honoring your own

812
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:57,480
rhythm and recognizing that
taking care of this body is your

813
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,040
best.
Your body, mind, spirit, heart,

814
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:03,400
all of them, not just your
physical body is your best

815
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:07,600
friend.
And when you are getting that

816
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:11,240
excitement in your gut, in your
heart, my friend Alex Franzic

817
00:45:11,240 --> 00:45:14,320
calls it your Hut.
The combination of the two, that

818
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,560
is a great indication of
readiness.

819
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,520
So that's that spark.
So if you train yourself to

820
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:23,520
listen to the spark, to listen
to that Rev of energy, just

821
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,600
become a witness to these
patterns.

822
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,800
So if you get this excitement,
I'll give you a real example.

823
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,960
This is a real example.
Just happened to be the last 24

824
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,600
hours, please.
So yesterday I got a message and

825
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,560
I happened to see it on my
phone.

826
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,200
My it was an e-mail, but I got
it on my phone where for many

827
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,640
years I was a media trainer.
I would train people how to

828
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,120
speak with confidence on camera
on stage.

829
00:45:44,240 --> 00:45:46,520
And it's with a terrific
company.

830
00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:49,200
I love this this guy that who
has APR firm.

831
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,120
So he asked, he introduced me to
a client.

832
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,600
She wants some media training.
She's going on a national TV

833
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:58,240
show and I'm in a place in my
life where I'm building quite a

834
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:02,680
few things and part of my brain
says, Alexa, focus.

835
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:05,520
I have a lot going on.
Every time I take a client,

836
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,360
there's, there's a process.
It takes time.

837
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,640
So be focused, say with
graciousness, no.

838
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:14,320
So I wrote back the client, my
friend, and I said, thank you so

839
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:15,880
much.
Here's where I am and this is,

840
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:18,080
you know, new update.
I have a new space, etcetera.

841
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,240
I gave us it, but I wish you
luck and I and good luck.

842
00:46:20,240 --> 00:46:22,520
And like I basically graciously
said, no, thank you.

843
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,280
Then I, you know, end of story.
OK, boundaries, haha.

844
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:30,520
Then I, I got it wonderful
e-mail back from the, the client

845
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:32,880
and she was like, because I
explained I was doing Wish Club.

846
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,240
I'd launched this space and this
is where my energy and focus

847
00:46:35,240 --> 00:46:36,760
was.
And she was like, totally

848
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,280
understand, super intrigued
about Wish Club.

849
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,760
Now, because I was at my desk at
this point, I decided to click

850
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:44,760
on her.
I decided to do a little

851
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:46,480
research.
If you just check somebody's

852
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,760
e-mail address, usually if they
have a company, you'll see the

853
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:50,880
end of the I said, let me just
see what she's about because I

854
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,400
like the, I like your spirit.
She was sort of curious about

855
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:54,960
Wish Club, but she was very
friendly.

856
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,240
It was nice.
So I looked at the work that she

857
00:46:57,240 --> 00:47:00,120
does.
Well, this woman is a survivor

858
00:47:00,240 --> 00:47:04,800
of colorectal cancer, stage 4,
maybe mother of three boys.

859
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,440
She's going on.
She is a she has a nonprofit.

860
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,840
And I was like, oh, absolutely,
I am going to help this woman

861
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,360
because I she's got an important
message to share.

862
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:19,160
Now here's where I want to say
my brain yesterday said, Alexa,

863
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:23,040
focus boundaries, say no, be
true to yourself.

864
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,040
The next day, when I got a
little more information, had a

865
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:30,040
little more spaciousness, I
could learn about, I felt the

866
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:34,120
excitement of and the and the
and the the enthusiasm that I

867
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:37,400
had for this woman's work in the
world that it felt I could

868
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,960
imagine, I could project in my
mind, me helping her just a

869
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,120
little bit share this important
work with the world on national

870
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,600
television.
And I thought, make time.

871
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:48,680
This woman is doing important
things.

872
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,920
Make time.
It made me feel enthusiastic.

873
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:56,840
That's my body that telling me
yes, pivot and say yes.

874
00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,040
And so I wrote her back back
immediately.

875
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,560
I said, hold on.
I now, I now know what you're up

876
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,360
to.
Let's, let's, you know, call me

877
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:06,680
later and, and let's, let's,
let's make time and, and let's

878
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,360
do this.
It would be my honor to help

879
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:09,760
you.
And I think that when you're

880
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,600
working towards your wish
wishes, your readiness, you're

881
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,840
going to have to figure out
who's in charge.

882
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:18,160
I've worked out, I've worked a
long hard while on my inner

883
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:20,680
critic.
And now we are in relationship,

884
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:25,320
we're in conversation.
I am not a I'm not a victim to

885
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:28,040
that voice that is telling me,
no, you can't.

886
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,800
No, it's not possible.
Sometimes that voice has more

887
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,760
power than you realize.
But I've worked over the years

888
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,760
to really work with my inner
critic because sometimes there's

889
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,440
constructive criticism.
That's cool, but this critic

890
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,280
isn't going to stop me.
So I, I, I give myself

891
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,720
permission to really do that
dance between is, am I being

892
00:48:45,720 --> 00:48:47,880
stopped?
Am I thinking small?

893
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,360
Am I being stuck and scared?
That's when the inner critic is,

894
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,800
has got too much.
It's like the, the, the, the

895
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,680
wizard in the Wizard of Oz.
He's got too much power.

896
00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,080
She whatever that that power in
you, but you have to be in

897
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,840
dialogue recognizing that you
always have plenty of power,

898
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,400
that you always have choices.
And when you can connect with

899
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:10,560
your inner intuition, your body
language, your feelings, then

900
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,480
you can make a decision that
really is moving you in the

901
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,440
direction of your highest and
best self.

902
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,960
Oh, I love that so much because
I think that there are so many

903
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,320
times where people are like, I'm
not ready yet.

904
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,840
I feel like maybe I need to take
another certification class

905
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,120
until I'm ready or I need to get
more under, You know, I need to

906
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,760
do this before, before, before,
before, before.

907
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:35,960
And then they're waiting to be
so ready for that leap that the

908
00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,800
energy doesn't necessarily
invite itself in.

909
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:42,720
There is some blockage in that
nervousness or in that feeling

910
00:49:42,720 --> 00:49:46,720
of, I would say perhaps a lack
of self-confidence.

911
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,080
And yeah.
And so that might get in the way

912
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:54,120
of the curiosity and that
openness to say, OK, what, you

913
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:57,880
know, what could I invite in
that might move me towards a

914
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:02,000
little closer to my dream that
isn't necessarily the same kind

915
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,960
of action that I've already been
taking because that hasn't

916
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:09,520
necessarily gotten me there yet.
Maybe there's some curiosity

917
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,800
about something new that you can
try.

918
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:15,000
If it's something where you feel
like it might be out of your

919
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,920
comfort zone, that is, you know,
a good sign that, oh, maybe we

920
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,440
can start stretching boundaries
a little bit.

921
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,040
But then also boundaries are
important to your point, you

922
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:27,080
know, And so it is a very
personal choice.

923
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,440
It is a very personal thing
about whether or not you feel

924
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:32,640
that you're ready for
activation.

925
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:36,320
But I love that you have a 21
day, you know, service for

926
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:38,600
people that they can actually
follow along.

927
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:42,800
And as simple as noticing
smiles, as simple as like, you

928
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:45,640
know, writing your wishes down,
things like that.

929
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,960
And you're getting into the
energy so that it doesn't feel

930
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,200
like it's so daunting that it's
impossible that your wishes

931
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:54,240
can't come true.
They actually can.

932
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:57,520
And there are some things that
you can do to continue moving,

933
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:01,320
actively taking action towards
that that feel comfortable and

934
00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:02,400
right for you.
It's.

935
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:06,040
So yeah, one of the things that
I'm working on and I'm going to

936
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:09,200
be launching in the next month
or so is an is a community

937
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:12,400
called Wish Class.
Because I think that what you

938
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,960
are speaking to, a lot of people
have confessed to me that their

939
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:20,320
wishes seem so big or it just
seems so daunting that it

940
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,680
actually is easier to sit on the
couch and watch Netflix or say,

941
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:25,600
I'm not, I'll take another
certification or do all the

942
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,120
things and I do it too.
That's good solution.

943
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:29,760
Do it too, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.

944
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:34,600
But I think that there are so
many ways that step by step that

945
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:37,840
there are ways that we can flex
those muscles.

946
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:41,760
And for anyone listening who
this might resonate with them in

947
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,480
terms of the dauntingness or you
don't know where to begin, we

948
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,280
can start with the tiniest
action steps.

949
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,280
And I tell people that, you
know, when you're deciding what

950
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:54,040
you want to wear in the morning,
changing the language of what do

951
00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,680
I wish to wear today, Just raise
it up a little bit so it doesn't

952
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,680
just become a function of like,
I have to dress my body, but

953
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,360
make it a little delicious.
You know what's going to feel

954
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:06,760
amazing?
That act of asking yourself

955
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,000
something as simple as choose
the clothing.

956
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:13,240
What do I wish to wear is is
flexing that same muscle?

957
00:52:13,240 --> 00:52:14,400
Yeah.
But it's easy.

958
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,520
It's just one decision.
There's no ramifications.

959
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,800
It's a baby.
It's a little low stakes, you

960
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,360
know, low stakes wish.
Yeah.

961
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,400
The same with you Go to a
restaurant, you know, maybe if

962
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:26,240
you're somebody who is so used
to accommodating, like, oh, do

963
00:52:26,240 --> 00:52:28,160
you want to split?
Whatever you want, I'll eat it.

964
00:52:28,240 --> 00:52:30,600
Maybe you always deflect to
somebody else's what they

965
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,600
design.
Oh, really?

966
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:34,720
Someone's yeah.
If somebody is sitting and

967
00:52:34,720 --> 00:52:37,800
giving you a menu or you're
deciding where you want to eat,

968
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:41,840
you're looking at all those
choices and what do I wish to

969
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,200
eat right now?
What is going to be so

970
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:48,960
satisfying to me right now?
And this is the way you start to

971
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,920
Orient yourself and work those
muscles, but you just start them

972
00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:56,920
with baby weights.
Then it becomes you start to up,

973
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,040
what do I wish to do this
weekend?

974
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:00,840
What do I wish to do this
weekend?

975
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:04,520
What would be my dream weekend?
Or what do I wish to do with

976
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,720
this free half hour in my day?
What do I wish to do?

977
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,960
And then you start to again,
it's just you're building up

978
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,840
muscles, which class is an
extension of that where we go a

979
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,000
little bit deeper, where we're
looking at the things where

980
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,920
we're draining our genie juice,
where we're building up, taking

981
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:20,680
our genie in the gym.
So it's, it's really meant to be

982
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:23,480
easy, fun work, but it's
powerful work.

983
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:26,320
It's deceptively easy, but it's
powerful work.

984
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:30,040
I love that because there are so
many times it's like, what do

985
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,920
you want for dinner?
I didn't stress.

986
00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:37,320
It's like, why do I have to
decide again, what do you want

987
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:38,600
to have?
Where do you want to go?

988
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:40,960
Don't turn it into stress.
That's what.

989
00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:43,240
Yeah, that's what we don't want
to do.

990
00:53:43,240 --> 00:53:45,480
This should be fun.
The energy should be light and

991
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:47,360
juicy.
I love that energy.

992
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:52,440
Oh, my goodness.
Amazing.

993
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,760
Oh, gosh.
I want to ask everybody.

994
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:59,520
OK, So if you were to start this
work, if you were to be granted

995
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:03,640
A wish that you want to have
just by the end of the day, what

996
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:05,440
would that be?
We can start small.

997
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:08,400
What would that wish be?
How many smiles can we notice

998
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,200
today?
How many smiles can we give

999
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:12,240
today?
How many compliments?

1000
00:54:12,240 --> 00:54:15,600
How many people can we tell they
are the most amazing people in

1001
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:18,280
the world?
How great would that be?

1002
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:22,320
Yeah, to help each other smile.
And that energy is also one that

1003
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:24,960
welcomes in and invites wishes
granted.

1004
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,480
Oh my gosh, Alexa, I can talk to
you forever.

1005
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,680
I can absolutely talk to you
forever.

1006
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:34,840
But I wanted to to let you know
that in my podcast towards the

1007
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:38,880
end, I always ask my guests 3
common questions.

1008
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,000
They're simple on the surface,
but I think that they reveal a

1009
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,320
lot because there are reminders
of connects of what connects us,

1010
00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:47,960
our beauty, our humanity, and
the truth that we live by.

1011
00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,280
So this first question is what
Makes You Beautiful?

1012
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,600
That's such a beautiful
question.

1013
00:54:54,720 --> 00:54:56,680
Your light.
That's what Makes You Beautiful.

1014
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:00,240
And your light is that energy
inside your heart.

1015
00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:03,960
It's the light that you share
when you allow yourself to let

1016
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:07,560
go of all that judgment and you
step into your joy and you step

1017
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:12,480
into your laughter and your love
and your silliness and your

1018
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:14,680
presence.
And so it's light.

1019
00:55:14,720 --> 00:55:17,120
And that's actually the energy
that when people say, you know,

1020
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,720
that person lights up a room,
they're just living in their

1021
00:55:19,720 --> 00:55:21,840
light.
And that is irresistibly

1022
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:22,400
beautiful.
The.

1023
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:27,520
Year of the fire, Year of horse.
Love that answer my second

1024
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:30,160
question.
What does it mean to be human?

1025
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:36,920
Who to be human is to?
The first word that came to mind

1026
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:41,560
is humility.
I think that we are bodies

1027
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:46,760
having a spiritual experience
here on Earth, and I think to be

1028
00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:51,760
human is to recognize the gift
of being alive, to recognize

1029
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:56,240
that this was our choice to come
here and to recognize that it's

1030
00:55:56,240 --> 00:56:01,760
a privilege to bring our energy,
our our soul energy to the

1031
00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:05,240
planet.
And when you recognize that and

1032
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:09,040
connect with the intentions that
you made before you were born,

1033
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:10,680
whether you're aware of it or
not, consciously or

1034
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:14,800
unconsciously, living that
legacy is how you will leave the

1035
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:18,000
planet with grace, knowing that
it was a life well lived.

1036
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:22,720
It seems like that is how
wishing and humanity intersect

1037
00:56:22,720 --> 00:56:23,840
for you.
That's really.

1038
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:25,880
Yeah, they do answer.
They do, yeah.

1039
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:29,680
Beautiful, beautiful.
And the last question is what is

1040
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:34,680
1 truth that you live by?
The only truth there is the

1041
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:40,000
Golden Rule, which is to do unto
others as you would have them do

1042
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,880
unto you.
The golden rule that if you

1043
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:44,920
really stick it is golden for a
reason.

1044
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,120
In life, with all the
complexities of human behavior

1045
00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:51,720
and the state of the world and
everything, if you go back to

1046
00:56:51,720 --> 00:56:55,480
just to do unto others as you
would have them do to you, you

1047
00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:56,960
are golden.
That is it.

1048
00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,360
And sometimes we need to catch
ourselves in the heat of the

1049
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:05,520
moment and pause, the magic
pause to really remember that

1050
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:09,600
truth and instead of feeling
entitled to spew a little bit

1051
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:14,040
more negativity in the world.
And I do 2 at times we have to

1052
00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:16,720
recognize to go back to the
golden rule.

1053
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:19,640
I love that golden rule.
I wish.

1054
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:24,040
Yeah, I wish that it was
something that was top of mind

1055
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,400
for everyone at all times.
Oh, my gosh.

1056
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:29,440
Well, Alexa, I think I mean,
listening to you, I always do

1057
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:32,200
come back to this feeling of
remembering.

1058
00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:36,160
It is like remembering our
soulfulness, our divineness, our

1059
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:39,960
joy, our light, our ability to
love ourselves and love each

1060
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,800
other, doing unto others as
we're doing ourselves.

1061
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:46,720
And I feel like, you know, doing
the whole genie work, being our

1062
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:49,800
own genie isn't about getting
everything that you want.

1063
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:53,360
I really think that it is about
being choiceful, being

1064
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:58,880
intentional, being mindful about
what aligns with you and how

1065
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,400
grand that energy can be for
yourself.

1066
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:06,600
Trusting our own voices,
trusting our own inner beliefs,

1067
00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:11,040
our body, our not only our
brains, but our Hut, our heart

1068
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:15,400
and our guts, and then having
that vision to move towards what

1069
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:19,000
we're truly desiring.
I love how you answered those

1070
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:21,560
three questions.
I think that, you know, it just

1071
00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:23,840
seems like, you know, beauty is
light.

1072
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:29,320
Being human is being a soul
Incarnate and having humility

1073
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:33,800
and, and serving other people.
And the truth is just living a

1074
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:38,400
life of love, living a life of
just authentic, unfettered,

1075
00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:41,640
beautiful love.
So my heart is full right now.

1076
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,560
I thank you so much.
I think for our listeners, if

1077
00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:48,760
something stirred in you from
our conversation today, let it

1078
00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:51,040
stay with you.
Choose one wish.

1079
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:54,400
Choose a courageous step.
Choose a truth that you're ready

1080
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,760
to embody.
Do not be passive because

1081
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,920
wishing is action oriented.
It's a declaration.

1082
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:05,880
You are so much more powerful
than you've ever been taught to

1083
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:07,200
believe.
We know it.

1084
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:10,920
You know it deep down inside.
You are such a beautiful human.

1085
00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:14,440

your work and for being my guest
