Welcome to the Lively
0:03
Show. Let's explore the
0:05
beauty of being alive.
0:17
Hello my friends and welcome to today's
0:19
show. I'm excited to be bringing you
0:21
a solo episode flow diary style, which
0:23
is something that was highly requested over
0:26
80% of you who supplied a little
0:28
answer on my call out on Instagram
0:30
asked for a flow diaries episode this
0:32
week. So that's what I'm bringing you.
0:34
Although there were a few other suggestions
0:36
that actually are very apropo right now.
0:38
Someone asked Kelsey asked something related to
0:40
the families in the holiday, especially family
0:43
who don't use their inner voice like
0:45
to pump up those of us who's.
0:47
Minds are anxious around family. Born Knowing
0:49
Love said list episode, the top five
0:51
principles you live by, what experiences inspire
0:54
them. I think that's a really cool
0:56
topic. The top five principles I live
0:58
by and what experiences expired them. That
1:00
could be a future episode. So thank
1:03
you for that. Someone asked for my
1:05
favorites lately. I'm gonna do that in
1:07
a YouTube video coming soon. So stay
1:09
tuned for that. That was the suggestion
1:12
by. Life is the special occasion. And
1:14
then Mount and Monica asked family interactions.
1:16
during the holidays, saying yes or no
1:18
to get together, stress and guilt. And
1:21
Madison said your spiritual growth phases and
1:23
what helped in each. Also great idea.
1:25
Madison, thank you. And as far as
1:27
the family suggestions that I just read
1:29
out, I actually was already pinged to
1:31
do this, but. Devin, our manager for
1:34
team lively. She asked me as soon
1:36
as we launched flowing from anxious to
1:38
aligned, just so you know, in case
1:40
you missed that time in the summer,
1:42
we launched a audio class. It's just
1:44
very simple. I think it's under three
1:46
hours long audio only, and then with
1:49
a giant list of PDF resources
1:51
and questions to help you to
1:53
sort out potential situations if you
1:56
find yourself on the anxious avoidance
1:58
spectrum in attachment style. romantic
2:00
relationships. If you skew anxious on
2:02
the anxious avoidance. romantic styles, that's
2:04
the class for you. As we
2:06
were bringing this out, she's like,
2:08
please do one of these kind
2:11
of classes, but do it for
2:13
the holidays and people that have
2:15
to go see their families or
2:17
extended families. Oftentimes those can be
2:19
difficult transitions and seeing them, you
2:21
know, obviously it depends. Some people
2:23
might have daily struggles with family
2:25
members, other might have them around
2:27
the holidays at the end of
2:29
the year particularly. So either way,
2:32
she asked me to create a
2:34
class around that. are asking for
2:36
the same. So we have a
2:39
new class for you based on
2:41
this. So thank you, Devin, and
2:44
everyone who suggested this. Untangling family
2:46
ties is now live. So untangling
2:48
family ties. This is over at
2:51
Bella lively.com/untangling family ties. D-I-E-S. So
2:53
I found personally myself. in this
2:55
class, you're actually gonna hear me
2:58
share more about my personal family
3:00
and extended family and friends than
3:02
you ever have before. Obviously, I
3:04
don't talk about specifics on the
3:06
show in public because it's not about just
3:08
saying things for the heck of it. But
3:10
in the context of helping people understand their
3:13
own families, their own connections. I wanted to
3:15
share my own because I know that storytelling
3:17
can be such an inspiration and a hot
3:19
triggering experience for other people too. So I'm
3:21
going to share my story with my journey
3:24
with it from therapy to clarity as I
3:26
say many times in the class. That's kind
3:28
of what it is basically at least from
3:30
my own journey. Growing up my family always
3:32
said we don't know where she came from.
3:34
And when I was young I used to
3:37
take that as a sign of you know.
3:39
They don't even know how to show love
3:41
to me. But now in my older
3:43
years and through all the work that
3:45
I've done and I'm sharing in this
3:47
class, I realize they truly don't know
3:49
where I came from. And so I
3:51
did not come into this lifetime with
3:53
a lifetime family connection that was like
3:55
leave it to Beaver whatsoever. And that
3:57
said, everyone did their best obviously as.
4:00
they would. And I
4:02
had a lot
4:04
of discomfort with the way that
4:06
I connected to my family as I
4:08
was younger and even into my twenties
4:10
and up until my mid thirties in
4:12
some cases. And I'm going to explain
4:14
what I found in my inner voice
4:17
in the context of soul, soul, ages,
4:19
soul lifetimes, past lives, et cetera, that
4:21
unsangled all the drama that I was
4:23
creating in my head about them. And
4:25
I want to share this so that
4:27
you can hopefully have that clarity around
4:29
your family members as well. There'll be
4:31
a huge resource of, you know, resources,
4:33
and then also a huge list of
4:36
questions that you can use for the
4:38
family members or friends, even, that you're
4:40
interested in untangling the ties with. So
4:42
it's going to help you get clarity.
4:44
It doesn't mean I can predict what
4:46
they're going to do in terms of
4:48
how they interact with you as you
4:50
go home for the holidays. But I
4:52
have tons of questions to help you
4:54
even talk to your inner voice about
4:57
those difficult interactions if they so arise.
4:59
But either way, I just feeling so
5:01
clear, calm, collected, and appreciative of all
5:03
the work that this class includes that has
5:05
helped me find this level of peace
5:07
of the family that I didn't feel like
5:09
I gelled with growing up. And yeah,
5:11
I just hope the same for other people
5:13
that might feel similarly. So that is
5:16
available now. You can go download it and
5:18
start using it ASAP just before the
5:20
holidays. If you're in the US going to
5:22
Thanksgiving or Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, you name
5:24
it, New Years, whatever time your family may
5:26
connect. Of course, it's not actually holiday
5:28
specific though whatsoever. So just know this is
5:30
an evergreen, always applicable and does not
5:33
have to have anything to do specifically with
5:35
holidays. We just wanted to release it around
5:37
the time that people might be thinking about
5:39
this topic. Next up before I dive in
5:41
flow boss 2 .0. So we just ran flow
5:43
boss and flow boss was actually a class
5:45
that was requested by the community. And we
5:47
did the first round of it and it
5:49
wrapped up, I think, a week
5:51
ago. And yeah, I think one week
5:53
ago from now, then we've had a
5:55
week off and we're starting up a
5:57
second round of it this coming Monday. November
6:00
25th. So if it's at the time
6:02
you're listening to this, November 25th or
6:04
thereabouts, you're welcome to join us. Or
6:06
beforehand is even better. Obviously, because you
6:08
won't miss the first class, but Flow
6:10
Boss 2.0. So we're doing it again
6:12
because the Flow Bossers loved it so
6:14
much that they wanted to continue. So
6:16
we're going to do this. This is
6:18
a perfect class for anybody that is
6:20
starting. or already within a business that
6:22
they are running and they want to
6:24
work with the flow of their reality,
6:26
their inner voice, alignment, etc. I am
6:28
so excited. It's such a fun joy
6:30
to see the real momentum that was
6:32
picked up through the month with the
6:34
people in the class in the first
6:36
round. And I'm very excited to continue
6:38
with those that want to continue, but
6:40
it's also freely available to register for
6:42
those that I haven't taken the first
6:44
round either. So if your flow of
6:46
your day and time and lifestyle works
6:48
better for this coming class, we're gonna
6:50
run from November. 25th until December 16th.
6:52
So it's Monday nights. Well, Monday night's
6:54
my time, but it's probably Monday's midday
6:56
for a lot of the USers and
6:58
the North Americans. You can do the
7:00
time zone changes if you want, but
7:02
you can find all the details and
7:04
register for it at bellow lively.com/flow boss.
7:06
So. There you have it. Those are
7:08
the two new updates and things I've
7:10
been working on and will be creating
7:12
and working with people in the future.
7:15
Now let's go into the flow diary.
7:17
So as you guys know if you've
7:19
been listening to the show or especially
7:21
if you were following me on Instagram
7:23
recently, I had my friend Jess from
7:25
Detroit who you've heard here on the
7:27
show here and there over the last
7:29
year or two come on. She came and
7:31
visited me in London, which was her first
7:33
visit to London overall and also to visit
7:36
me here. you wanted to know about Jess
7:38
and how it went. I have to say
7:40
the actual flow of just getting here was
7:42
a flow. So let's go back. Zooming back
7:45
a few months, I had this idea cross
7:47
my mind when I was actually what was
7:49
going to become the inception of Flow Boss
7:51
was kind of inspired by this time where
7:54
I cleared my pipes. There's actually a pipe
7:56
clearing download that people have been purchasing this
7:58
week a lot to use. know that's
8:00
available if you feel like your pipes
8:02
energetically are clogged and slowed down by
8:05
your mind. This was the time where
8:07
I created that because I was flowing
8:09
with such intense robustness of flow. I
8:12
had this idea come through in that
8:14
flow for a festival, basically a weekend,
8:16
an essay festival in a very small.
8:18
condensed form, not nothing major and nothing
8:21
musical in nature, but just more about
8:23
like the things that I personally find
8:25
aligning and bringing those into one space
8:27
and place and doing them all in
8:30
a kind of concerted and
8:32
organized set of days. So it could
8:34
be a variety of crafts, creativity, design,
8:36
decorating, kind of things like wreath making,
8:38
cake making, astrology, you name, all that
8:40
kind of stuff. I just like a
8:43
mixture of things was in my idea.
8:45
And I had this friend at the
8:47
time that was working on a new
8:49
space that she was gonna design out
8:51
and renovate. And so it was supposed
8:54
to be done by the time that
8:56
this potential. alignment fest as I was
8:58
calling it would happen which would be
9:00
in mid-November which would have been last
9:02
weekend and as the flow had it we
9:04
got so excited about it I had a
9:06
great chat with Jess about it she was
9:08
pumped and she's like I'd love to do
9:10
the VIP party at your house and so
9:13
she wanted to design the cocktail party is
9:15
like sure that would be fantastic she is
9:17
all things the hostess with the mostus and
9:19
she's an amazing chef and just hostess and
9:21
so I was like you would be amazing
9:23
at that by all means please please do
9:25
it and so she bought her ticket to
9:27
come to London for this proposed weekend immediately
9:29
and as flow had it after that I
9:32
was trying to confirm with the friend that
9:34
was doing their renovation on the space I
9:36
wanted to use for the event and she
9:38
went AWOL she kind of went silent for
9:40
many days and I was getting stressed initially
9:42
because I was like well I need to
9:44
know that we have the space, but I
9:46
think in her mind, she was battling a
9:48
bunch of different things on the back end
9:50
with the space and another space she was
9:52
renovating on top of that. And so I
9:54
think things just kind of snowballed for her.
9:56
So even though in theory it would have
9:58
been great, I don't. even know if this
10:01
space is even yet fully. you know, operational.
10:03
So I would say that in the end,
10:05
I just saw it didn't flow. I did
10:07
not flow into actually doing the event, as
10:09
you can tell because I never did it.
10:11
But Jess had bought the ticket. So she
10:14
knew that it wasn't completely firm and said
10:16
in stone when she bought it, but she
10:18
was so inspired at the moment that she
10:20
just jumped at it and did it right
10:22
away. And so I, therefore, selfishly got to
10:24
enjoy a alignment fest with my friend for
10:27
five days just aligning all over the city
10:29
of the city of London, which was
10:31
truly the alignment fast that I feel
10:33
like having now lived out the time
10:35
between the idea for the event and
10:37
now very happy that I didn't actually
10:40
have in a festival on top of
10:42
it all. In fact before just got
10:44
here at three extremely full days getting
10:46
untangling family ties ready finishing up flow
10:48
boss finishing up welling finishing up one-on-one
10:50
sessions galore getting everything ready with you
10:53
guys for the show etc. So I
10:55
was just so thankful that I didn't
10:57
have a festival on top of all
10:59
of it. So that was a positive
11:02
flow. basically alignment first got my friend
11:04
to come and we had an incredible
11:06
time. I took her around London. There's
11:08
a London Q tour if you're curious.
11:11
People ask me when they say they're
11:13
coming to London what to do. I
11:15
say well you can look at my
11:18
Instagram highlights of London and you'll say
11:20
well you can look at my Instagram
11:22
highlights of London and you'll see a
11:24
lot of London and you'll see a
11:27
lot of my favorites tagged there so
11:29
you can just do that for free.
11:31
borough spots and that's just kind of
11:33
the whole nuts and bolts of everything.
11:36
It's really pretty. There's a Google map,
11:38
etc. So you can purchase that if
11:40
you want to come to London. But
11:42
I gave the guide to Jess as
11:44
she was flying here. I was like,
11:46
hey, take a look at this and
11:48
tell me what you want to do
11:51
instead of me having to describe everything.
11:53
So she looked through that and had
11:55
some ideas of things she wanted to.
11:57
I'd already made some bookings too. We
11:59
did. bar which I didn't even know
12:02
exists and was right around the
12:04
corner from my flat. We walked
12:06
through the park. She wasn't a
12:08
big museum person. She really is
12:10
the hostess with the Moses that
12:12
loves the food scene. So we
12:14
definitely did mostly restaurants and then
12:16
walking in a bit of shopping
12:18
too. I shopped her out through
12:20
London. So she got really good
12:22
weather too. It's really hit a
12:24
cold snap now. So I'm happy
12:26
that she came in when it
12:28
was like really pleasant and warm
12:30
to walk around. And it was fantastic.
12:32
in this podcast is the topic of
12:34
abundance. Obviously this is a subject that
12:37
we talk about extensively in Sophia Sessions,
12:39
all of our classes, your inner voice,
12:41
and even me with my friends. And
12:43
she was having this amazing epiphany herself
12:45
that she shared. And obviously we talk
12:48
hours a day at times throughout the
12:50
weeks on the phone, but in person,
12:52
I hadn't heard this like little epiphany
12:54
she'd had. And she shared it with
12:57
me while we were eating all over
12:59
the city. Basically, she has done a
13:01
really good job making a ton of progress
13:03
as she's been wanting to for years and
13:05
years around the subject of food and weight
13:07
loss for herself. And so while she's been
13:10
in that journey, one of the epiphany. she's
13:12
had and it was so cool to see
13:14
her living it out in real life as
13:16
we were literally eating out for five straight
13:18
days is that she was so good at
13:20
not eating all of the food and she
13:23
talked about the fact that in our each
13:25
of these meals and this is like obviously
13:27
for eating out twice a day this is
13:29
quite a bit of food in London and I
13:31
think I actually ate more than she did in
13:33
the whole trip overall because I just had less
13:36
of a stop that she had in herself and
13:38
I took her to a roast dinner you know
13:40
a Sunday which is a classic thing to do
13:42
in London, so she really wanted to try what
13:44
a UK Sunday roast would be like. And she
13:47
gets it, and she does not eat the majority
13:49
of it. She eats like over half of it,
13:51
but not all of it. And she just consistently
13:53
does that. In one place we go, she didn't
13:55
love the food that much, so she had a
13:58
few bites of it, but she wasn't impressed. And
14:00
she didn't finish what she said. It
14:02
doesn't deserve the stomach real estate. I think
14:04
it's her term for it. And just
14:06
watching her and knowing her for all these
14:08
years and knowing this subject in her
14:10
life, I was just really, really, really impressed.
14:12
So she said she used to have
14:15
this fear around food and that especially in
14:17
a situation like she was in with
14:19
me, where she's only in London for the
14:21
first time, maybe forever, who knows, you
14:23
know, she didn't have this story that this
14:25
is her last meal, but she said
14:27
she's lived for so long with this scarcity
14:30
sense around food, that this could be the last
14:32
time. And I remember, like I, she
14:34
would tell me about times where she would
14:36
get on an airplane and she'd be nervous
14:38
about, well, what if there's not food there?
14:40
She'd be bringing snacks on the plane just
14:42
in case. So this is like completely flipped
14:44
from this scarcity mindset of I've got to
14:46
make sure there's food available at all times
14:48
to this abundance around food. Now, for some
14:50
people that are listening, this will be completely
14:52
applicable to food, but for other people, it
14:55
could be even applicable to money, for example,
14:57
because a lot of that comes up through
14:59
Sophia's sessions and classes like Flo Boss. And
15:01
so she was saying, she used to have
15:03
this scarcity of what if this is the last
15:05
meal I have, or what if this is
15:07
the last, I guess you could say if
15:09
you switch it to money, the last, this
15:11
is the money that I ever have in
15:13
a sense, even though we don't think of
15:15
that logically around food or money, we know
15:17
that there's more food and money coming. We
15:19
sometimes act like what we have right now
15:21
in front of us, whether it's a meal
15:23
or our bank account is all the money
15:26
that we have. Or ever will have. And
15:28
so even though we know logically, we're going
15:30
to eat later tomorrow or today, even, or
15:32
we're going to make more money tomorrow or
15:34
even today, even or next
15:36
week, et cetera, we act
15:38
like it's our last. And
15:40
so she had this realization
15:42
epiphany that food is everywhere.
15:46
She, I don't, this is going to have
15:48
take me a little bit to like help
15:50
you get the perception shift. And hopefully, I
15:52
mean, some people will be like, duh, and
15:54
it is a dub moment, but if you,
15:56
like, she wasn't living from that understanding for
15:58
so many years. made a
16:00
difference to actually. integrate that understanding
16:02
in an actionable way. So that's
16:05
why I'm bringing it up. I'm
16:07
going to take it slowly. Again,
16:09
some people will say, especially if
16:11
these subjects are their happy sweet
16:13
spots with their minds not interfering,
16:15
you're going to be like, du,
16:17
du, du, du. Because it is
16:20
a du moment. But when you
16:22
have bean bags and emotional belief
16:24
systems and then resulting lifestyle patterns
16:26
that kind of perpetuate the scarcity
16:28
mindset, it doesn't feel like a nah.
16:30
So. abundance of food. There's an abundance of
16:32
food everywhere. There's food everywhere. And she kind
16:35
of, she said this at the hotel bar
16:37
when we were just having drinks at the
16:39
end of the night, and she's just like,
16:41
I just realized there's food everywhere. There's food
16:43
all over the city. There's food everywhere. There's
16:45
food everywhere. And especially where I live and
16:47
where she was staying nearby on this little
16:49
high street, which is like a main street
16:51
that the term Americans would use. So like
16:53
this little tiny main street that I live
16:55
on. has tons of food everywhere. If you
16:57
look, there's a grocery store, a grocery store,
17:00
a cafe, there's a wine store, there's
17:02
another wine store. I'm just literally thinking
17:04
of what's around me within three minutes
17:06
walking. There's a French bakery, there's a...
17:08
cupcake store, there's literally, when she says
17:11
this, I'm literally living around food, there's
17:13
food in the kitchen of her hotel,
17:15
there's food everywhere, and there's food in
17:17
the restaurants, and there's food on our
17:19
plate. But she said, instead of looking
17:21
at everything being her last meal, she
17:24
flipped it to, oh my God, it's
17:26
raining food everywhere. There is no need
17:28
for me to worry about it. I'm surrounded
17:30
in a sea of food. It is always there and it's always around
17:32
me and I am okay. And I don't need to eat it
17:34
all right now because it's not a scarcity. This is not a famine.
17:36
This is not a drought of food. This is not a drought of
17:39
food. Now if you're in a drought, this is not a drought, this
17:41
is not a drought of food. Now, if you're in a drought, this
17:43
is not a drought, this is not a drought, this is not a
17:45
drought, this is not a drought, this is not a drought, this is
17:47
not a drought, this is not a drought, this is not a drought,
17:49
it a drought, it a drought, it a drought, it a drought, it
17:52
a drought, it a drought, it a drought, it a drought, this,
17:54
it a drought, a drought, it a drought, a drought, a drought, a
17:56
drought, it a drought, a drought, a drought, a drought, a drought, You
17:58
will see me again. This is not the only. time that
18:00
she needs to eat a roast, for
18:02
example. And as I said, she's
18:04
a very high caliber for food. So
18:06
if it does not deserve the
18:08
stomach real estate, she's happy to have
18:10
some bites of the experience and
18:12
let that be enough. Amazing. Like just
18:14
getting to have the experiences without having
18:17
the results negatively affect her body. So
18:19
it was a huge shift. And I
18:21
think that that's so true around money
18:23
is everywhere. So you can just flip
18:25
it to money. Now you could say,
18:27
well, everyone else has the money, but
18:29
me, but still looking at it as
18:31
an abundant resource that is everywhere is
18:33
different than saying that no one has
18:36
money. And so just something to keep
18:38
in mind. I thought that was a
18:40
really nice aha moment for me when
18:42
she said it to me. The food
18:44
thing, even saying it on food was actually
18:46
helpful because I was thinking as I was like
18:48
normally thinking, you know, just like, well, she's
18:50
here. The food is in front of me. I
18:52
want to eat the majority of what I
18:54
see in front of me, but I wasn't doing
18:56
as good as she was doing at just
18:58
tuning into her body, deciding whether it deserved the
19:00
stomach real estate and having this abundance mindset
19:02
that there's always more food when she needs it
19:04
and that she can eat it later. She
19:06
takes doggy bags home and then she would have
19:09
through jet lag, a little bit of a
19:11
hunger hit her at let's say midnight. And so
19:13
she would eat some of the leftovers of the
19:15
food, but she didn't let herself tell
19:17
a story that said she needed to overeat
19:19
the food while she was here because
19:21
she had her greater goals in mind as
19:23
far as the weight that she still
19:25
wanted to lose even beyond where she's at
19:28
now. So it was amazing. It was
19:30
just, I just thought that was so simple,
19:33
yet so helpful at the same time. So
19:35
I wanted to share. Now another thing
19:37
to talk about on the subject of flow
19:39
aside from my friends visiting and honestly,
19:41
I was so sad when she left. I
19:43
would say sad. I was poignant. Do
19:46
you ever have that feeling of poignancy? It's
19:48
like so sweet. You're so loved up.
19:50
And you're also kind of like, Oh, that
19:52
was so beautiful. And then you're kind
19:54
of, I didn't feel sad that she'd be
19:56
gone, but there was just like this
19:58
intense welling up of emotion. as she was
20:00
leaving. But now I feel fine. It's like now
20:02
we'll go back to our phone life until we
20:05
see each other again. But we did decide that
20:07
we do need to see each other more often
20:09
in person than we historically have. We've actually only
20:11
spent a few weeks total in person together, but
20:14
thousands of hours over the years on the phone
20:16
since I've been all over the world. So. But
20:18
now, New York is where she's going to eventually
20:20
land. Right now, she's in Michigan at the moment,
20:22
but when she gets there especially, it's a very
20:25
quick little flight between the two, and there's so
20:27
many flights between New York and London, it's really
20:29
just more about, it's kind of the same distance
20:31
as going LA, New York, so. Anyway, so that
20:34
was one of our beautiful experiences. But aside from
20:36
that, I wanted to share about the flow of
20:38
my business idea. So I've mentioned before here and
20:40
there that I have a business idea. I want
20:42
to start as well as the company that I
20:45
have with a lively world as the company that
20:47
I have with a lively world. And I don't
20:49
want a lively world to stop at all. So
20:51
I want to keep up with a lively world
20:54
exactly as it flows, and I have been doing
20:56
it. as I have been doing for all these
20:58
years. However, I thought I had the space for
21:00
this new business idea that plopped into my awareness
21:03
through my inner voice a few months ago, actually,
21:05
but I have made barely any progress. I've thought
21:07
about it, I've gotten components for it, done research
21:09
and there's manufacturing. and production and then there'll need
21:11
to be fulfillment centers. I have a plan for
21:14
the marketing in a general sense. I don't like
21:16
this set of experiences I want to do with
21:18
that. But and I kind of have an idea
21:20
of the set of placements I would do. I
21:23
even have a logo made. So there are certain
21:25
things done. But as far as production and manufacturing
21:27
the actual thing into reality, I haven't done a
21:29
thing yet. And like it's just been running a
21:31
lively world, keeping up with everything. just haven't done
21:34
it. And I started to notice my mind, start
21:36
to tell stories of scarcity around it. And talking
21:38
to Minor Voice about it, it said, can you
21:40
allow this to serve you so well,
21:43
you don't feel rushed by
21:45
it. So this idea
21:47
is that you're fine to
21:49
do the business idea,
21:51
but you do not need
21:54
to do it because
21:56
you need to do it.
21:58
It is something here
22:00
to serve you. And as
22:03
you guys have heard
22:05
me talk about, my inner
22:07
voice is wild and
22:09
very rambunctious when it comes
22:11
to abundance. It wants
22:14
me to make decisions as
22:16
if I had $53
22:18
million, which I certainly do
22:20
not have. And it
22:23
wants me to make choices
22:25
from this extreme abundance
22:27
mindset. And so it's saying
22:29
basically, if you had $53 million, would
22:31
I have this business? Yes, I would.
22:33
Would I be doing it right now? Probably
22:35
not yet because I wouldn't want to
22:38
have spent the time as I have yet
22:40
not done. Also, I wouldn't want to
22:42
have spent the time to work on it
22:44
yet because I'm doing everything else that
22:46
I've been doing and been so happy about
22:48
doing. So it said, look, if you
22:50
wouldn't do it in the timeframe with your
22:52
$53 million life, then it's
22:54
not the time to do it now either. Right.
22:56
If you are doing it for
22:59
the $53 million lifetime as
23:01
a fun project of self -expression, cool,
23:04
but you do it in a way that
23:06
serves you. But I noticed my mind was
23:08
slipping into, I have a business idea and
23:10
kind of, to be fair, a little bit
23:12
of a hustle mentality, not that I wanted
23:14
to hustle. And I certainly wasn't hustling. I
23:16
was having the guilt of not hustling it
23:18
into reality or having worked on it, but
23:20
in order to have worked on it, I
23:22
would have had to hustle, but I wouldn't
23:24
hustle. So I had guilt about not hustling,
23:26
even though I would never hustle. I
23:29
bet that sounds weird. And I bet a lot
23:31
of you listening can say, oh, I have that
23:33
too all the time. I'm not doing something that
23:35
my mind thinks I should be doing because
23:37
I'm actually following my inner voice, but my mind,
23:39
ah, you know what? This is, this is
23:41
green flag fear. Oh my gosh. I'm just thinking
23:43
about the episode I did on red flag,
23:45
green flag fear. I haven't thought about it since
23:47
Jess has been in town, so it hasn't
23:49
been in my awareness, but it just plopped in
23:51
my head. If you haven't listened to that
23:54
episode, I highly recommend going back and listening to
23:56
it because now I'm seeing how helpful it
23:58
is. I have green flag fear. around
24:00
not yet starting the business. There's nothing wrong with
24:02
not starting the business. My inner voice is
24:04
saying, it's here to serve you. You're not here
24:06
to be the slave to it. Just because
24:08
you have the idea doesn't mean you have to
24:10
rush it to market. But my mind will
24:12
play stupid stories like, well, someone else could do
24:15
it faster or someone else could get into
24:17
it. If you don't get there first, blah, blah,
24:19
blah, blah, like, or just you're not
24:21
very good because you're talking about something
24:23
and not delivering on it. And historically
24:25
I've prided myself on the fact that
24:27
I can execute very quickly on things
24:29
when I say I'm gonna do something.
24:32
I have a very overall track record
24:34
of like swiftness or at least when
24:36
it's aligned, I very swift to
24:38
action. And so because this hasn't
24:40
been actioned to my mind's desires yet,
24:42
even though there are things that have been
24:44
done, there aren't things that have been
24:46
done. And it's green flag fear basically because
24:48
I haven't actually gone into production mode. Basically
24:51
that's all I'm gonna say. That's it.
24:53
Green flag fear has been presenting
24:55
itself. My mind is incredulous that I
24:57
can be this. Is
25:00
the word selfish? I don't
25:02
know. I could be this self
25:04
-full basically, loving to myself because
25:06
basically I'm not doing it at
25:08
the detriment of my wellbeing. And I can
25:10
tell you the three days that I was
25:12
before jazz, I was packed all day and
25:15
most of the two nights the three days,
25:17
you know, leaving up to it. And I
25:19
don't really wanna work on a business as
25:21
a side project on the weekends unless it's
25:23
my joy to do that. Like that's not
25:25
really what I often wanna do. So anyways,
25:27
yeah, green flag fear. The slow flow is
25:29
what I'm in right now. And I've noticed
25:31
this come up in Flow Boss 2 .0 or
25:34
well in the first round, we'll see if
25:36
it happens for anybody in the 2 .0
25:38
too. But definitely there are times when
25:40
your inner voice does not have a
25:42
rush to anything, execution, completion, et
25:44
cetera. And your mind
25:46
will want to rush because it's basically
25:48
green flag fear. It's a mind is saying
25:50
something hasn't happened yet, therefore something is wrong,
25:52
but your inner voice is like chill, chill,
25:54
chill. It's all okay. So yeah, my inner
25:57
voice said, we want you to feel abundant
25:59
in it, not. depleted. And that has
26:01
been a challenge for me to
26:03
mentally, I mean, I say that
26:05
challenge out of a scale of
26:07
10 being really stressed out. I've been
26:09
a two, this isn't major. And this
26:11
is something I would say I notice
26:13
about my business stuff. My mind will
26:15
have lots of thoughts about things, but
26:17
because I don't have tons of beanbags
26:20
on them, they're mostly just thought noise.
26:22
They're not actionable things that are compelling
26:24
me to feel stressed in a physical
26:26
physiological sense. So there's not lots of
26:28
emotional beanbags on them. They're just kind
26:30
of thoughts that are annoying to hear.
26:32
And when I hear them in my
26:34
mind, my mind will want to validate
26:37
them, but because there's no emotional heft
26:39
to them, because the emotional heft of
26:41
the beanbag is what's going to make
26:43
you really compelled to it. Like it's
26:45
not compelling me into action against my
26:47
inner voice or my will to be
26:49
aligned to it. So there you have
26:51
it. That is basically all of my
26:53
flow. Other than that, let's see my
26:55
mom and my youngest brother, Michael are
26:57
on their way to Christmas here in
26:59
about a month now on December 21st.
27:01
I'll actually slot this in now. We're
27:03
going to have the 20th of December
27:05
will be the last Sophia session of
27:07
the year because I'm going to take
27:10
the week off to be with my
27:12
family, my brother, my mom,
27:14
to spend the time with them.
27:16
But I will say the
27:18
20th is the last because my mom
27:20
and brother come on the 21st.
27:22
I'm going to do the Sophia session
27:24
of December 20th for free for the
27:26
entire community. So if you haven't done
27:28
a Sophia session yet, this might be
27:30
the one you might want to dabble
27:32
in. It's live only not recorded. So
27:34
join us if you can make it.
27:36
Um, you can go to our bella
27:38
lively .com/Sophia sessions to go see that, um,
27:40
calendar. I think it's a 4pm London
27:42
time. I'm like 99 .5 % sure that's
27:44
the time you can go double check
27:46
that. I don't know how and or
27:49
if yet Devin has made that available
27:51
to sign up yet for. So stay
27:53
tuned. I'll be sharing more about it.
27:55
It's still a month out. Obviously it's not a, you
27:57
know, immediate thing we have to worry about, but that
27:59
is my little to you all in terms of
28:01
the holidays as a free Sophia session on
28:03
the last one of the year. I think it
28:05
could be a cue if I continue doing
28:07
Sophia sessions. I have no plans to stop them,
28:09
but let's see if in a year from
28:11
now I'm still doing them five days a week.
28:13
Who knows? We'll have to find out, but
28:15
I have no plans at this point at all
28:17
to stop them because the feelings I have,
28:19
I just did my first two. Yeah,
28:22
I've done two now. Oh no, yesterday
28:24
was my first one. I have another
28:26
one later today, but this is my
28:28
second one since dress is gone, but
28:30
I cried in Bella Vita of tears
28:32
of joy just being back. It feels
28:34
so good to do Sophia sessions. We've
28:36
now, by the way, had two brides,
28:38
several birthdays. My dad died and Dorothy
28:40
gave birth on a day of a
28:42
Sophia session. So people are doing this
28:44
and then we've had someone in Israel
28:46
during bomb shelter, bomb raids, also joining
28:49
during a session live. So people in
28:51
all stages of life from their best moments
28:53
to their scariest are joining Sophia sessions. It's
28:55
such a joy to have everyone. And if
28:57
you're curious and want to try and you're
28:59
in a voice says, yes, you can always
29:01
join us. And if you do flow boss
29:03
2 .0, by the way, there's an option to
29:05
have a very discounted unlimited access to Sophia
29:07
sessions while we're running flow boss as well.
29:09
So you're welcome to try that if it
29:11
feels like a fit. So there you have
29:13
it, my friends. It is so nice to
29:16
be able to catch up with you, share
29:18
with you. It was so fun to have
29:20
Jess here. London is an amazing place in
29:22
the holidays. If you haven't ever seen
29:24
it, it is something worth seeing. I'd
29:26
say that I know New York is
29:28
a beautiful place to see in at
29:30
Christmas, but I always feel like Christmas
29:32
time in New York feels a little
29:34
more F. A. O. Schwartz. And I
29:36
always say that London feels a little
29:38
more Charles Dickens, just the decor, the
29:40
design, the details of garlands and just
29:42
the decor, even just walking the streets and
29:44
seeing what the shops and pubs and
29:46
everything decorate in terms of just the
29:48
exteriors alone is stunning. I love raging
29:50
street in the angels that hang in
29:52
the middle. It's just a really beautiful
29:54
place. So I'm excited to be able
29:56
to enjoy the weeks that are coming
29:58
as the nights are fair. cold and
30:00
very dark very quickly making the
30:02
most of all of the holiday
30:05
elements that they have to offer. So yeah,
30:07
there you have it. This is my
30:09
little story for you. I hope you are
30:11
doing well. I hope everything is going
30:13
smoothly as possible as you're following your inner
30:15
voices. I hope that that is serving
30:17
you well. I hope that you go into
30:19
your beanbags and release them as often
30:21
as necessary so you don't have to carry
30:24
that emotional baggage around with you and
30:26
therefore manifest other things to match it. I
30:28
hope that you have a good holiday,
30:30
you know, season coming up if you're doing
30:32
Thanksgiving next week with your family or
30:34
friends. I hope that that is something
30:36
that you enjoy. And yeah, until next time, may
30:38
something wonderful happen to you today.
