The Brilliant Mind

- How To ask so that People want to actually give it to you (What + Why)

-The Most Vulnerable Question Perhaps Ever Asked By a Human Being (From My Soul Sister)

- Meeting Our Child’s Emotional Needs & Building Healthy Emotional Foundations

The way in which we Ask for What We Need Influences: 

How Likely We are to get what we need, if the other person actually wants to give it to us, How the Other person feels about us.. 
And a BONUS: *When we Make them Understand Why We need it, They might Understand if They Need it Too

From a 5 min SCAM to 30 years of Self-Betrayal, one of the greatest lessons I have learned. 

The alternative is more dangerous than you imagined. 

A story of three decades of self-betrayal. Is it possible to love yourself after?

Why is it so hard to SAY OUT LOUD the GOOD we see in others? Why is it even harder to say good things about OURSELVES? Even when it’s true? 
.
Some people feel that, when they call out the GOOD in others, it makes them less than the words that leave their own mouth. But it’s JUST the opposite. It actually makes you EXPAND. Because when you accept, when you acknowledge, You incorporate that good on some level-even without any action currently. Still, in this moment, You become more GOOD. You become GREATER. you become more beautiful. Just by seeing. And Saying. And acknowledging.
.
What does this do for your children? Well, infinite. That’s what this does. It has an infinite and immeasurable impact that surpasses just this moment. Because, if your child thinks about your acknowledgement any time- tomorrow or twenty years in the future, it motivates them internally.
.
And the same thing goes for ANYONE that you CALL OUT THE GOOD IN- your partner, your mother, a STRANGER… the effects are infinite and cannot, i repeat CANNOT be MEASURED.
.
So, you wanna create MAGIC?
.
CALL OUT THE GOOD. CALL IT OUT, CALL IT OUT
.
SHOUT IT OUT. SHOUT IT OUT
.
SPEAK IT. SAY IT. SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS. 
.
You are so beautiful. You are so kind. You’re an amazing DANCER. You’re an INCREDIBLE SINGER.
.
YOU ARE A PHENOMENAL WRITER. 

You are so KIND. 

YOU ARE A REALLY HONEST HUMAN BEING, YOU KNOW THAT? 

YOU SPEAK REALLY WELL, YOU KNOW THAT?

YOUR FUNNY AS HELL, YOU KNOW THAT?

YOU RIDE THAT BICYCLE AWFULLY WELL, YOU KNOW THAT?

SAY IT. SPEAK IT. I DARE YOU. 

AND WATCH, WHAT BECOMES OF YOU-

….. The entire UNIVERSE

Your journey, experiences, and stories are SO unique to you. Is it really fair to compare yourself to anyone else?

Own the dream. It was given to you and no one else for a reason. It is yours. Are you ready to own it? To protect it? To see to it? To show up for it? To be the PERSON who LIVES it?

You could paint the best picture to the person you are closest to in the world. They still might be so far away from it. Who’s going to be able to see what you see in your mind? NOBODY

You are responsible for showing UP and making it happen. And if anyone else jumps on your wagon, it’s going to happen with or without them. But it’s not going to happen without you.

You have to be willing to look like a fool to yourself. You have to be willing to suck in your own mind. You have to be willing to put out things that you don’t necessarily feel the best about. You have to be willing to go against all of your own judgements of yourself. 

THIS IS OUR COMMITMENT:

MY DREAM, my responsibility. MY BEING, my responsibility.

We tell stories all day everyday each day of our life. 

Let the stories you hold get you to the end of your life with the least regret as possible. 

Dreaming is easy. That's why everyone does it. 

Why do so few manifest it?

Because they connect to the feeling.

I am living proof of the saying, “Better late than never.” But maybe even more, “You can’t rush the blooming of the flower.”
I wanted to start a podcast 10 years ago.  So whoever you are, wherever you are in your life, no matter how old you are, or how long you have spent thinking about doing something- (it’s probably not longer than the time I have spent thinking about things without taking any actual steps towards them), 

It’s never too late. I promise. 

For so long, I was just a seed. And I needed a lot of water and sunlight before i could grow. 

Maybe the conditions weren’t quite right, but they taught me to weather a storm, they taught me to become so resilient. 

And, those conditions taught me to find the sun if there was just one ray in the entire sky. I would find it. I would cherish it. I would see it. I would bask in its warmth. I would survive off of it. 

You should see what I do with the entire sun’s warmth now. 

But I had a journey to get here-

My whole life I had just dreamt and not done. 

Today, I do. Today i put these beautiful dreams into words, speech, writing, art, music, shows.

I hope in this podcast and in every medium that you consume my expression, that you will feel my heart-

Because my friends, my heart is the reason I am here

I try my hardest to let it lead and i try my best to let my mind take the back seat

Because, even the most beautiful minds are not good for everything-

Especially going into the unknown. No mind is good for that. Every mind will scream, STOP! DON’T DO IT! DANGER!

But I become better and better at not listening to this beautiful yet fearful mind, sometimes. 

I know it’s just trying to protect me. But i need the life i deserve. The one I'm supposed to live. The one only i can live. And i am getting it. It is already mine

That’s what i protect now above all else. TOMORROW... The life I DESERVE. 

All my life i have just thought and thought without taking action- Because action requires courage- courage is the action of the heart. And I have been so afraid. But in allowing myself to pursue, giving myself what I deserve, sticking to a schedule and doing what i say i will do, I have discovered a heart whose beauty is beyond anything I could imagine

Today, i’m so glad and i’m so honored to share with you another beautiful expression of me

The podcast is called “Touch Tomorrow” because my whole life I have waited until tomorrow. 

Until today. 

I love you. See you today. 

You have a Great Dream. You have a great vision. 

But it's in here. 

And you really want it out there.

But time flies, and you still don't see your vision out there. 

But you know that it will come true one day. But that day is not today. And you think it will be tomorrow. 

But you said tomorrow yesterday. And ten years have passed. 

What role do you have to play in order to see your vision in this world?

Who do you have to be in order to manifest this Great Dream?

How should you think, behave, act?
