Topic - Awakened Motherhood 

 

Lori McDaniel 

Mother of an 18 year old girl 

Transformational wellness coach & healer 

Has an Awakened Motherhood coaching practice and program 

 

Q:  What was your experience awakening as a mother? 

 

A: 

For me it was a process.  It was definitely a process. I raised my daughter on my own from almost the age of 3 (about 15 years)

There was an awakening when I realized that I was going to be a single parent

I started asking: “How can I shower her with love and not lose myself in the process?” 

As she got older I did more transformational work and it was important to me that I was a mother, but I was also a woman 

 

Q:  Were there instances in your motherhood journey that were the catalysts for you to look for more? 

 

A: Sometimes night time.  After my daughter went to bed, I remember thinking: “There’s got to be more than this.  How can I have more?” 

 

Q:  Some people feel a lot of guilt for asking for more than the beautiful experience of raising children.  Can you speak to this?

 

A:  

I really think there’s this myth out there that we’re expected to grow up and have babies and be happy. 

I love my daughter, I know I am blessed, but I had times when I felt suffocated and I felt that I had to pause everything (my dreams) to be a mother.  

No one talks about how motherhood is full of paradoxes and emotions.

 

Meghan:  Now the internet allows us to access more variety in communities of other mothers.  We can get online and find more communities to expand our conversations and mindset.

 

Q: (To audience) 

 

Have you experienced guilt and shame about wanting more as a mother? 

 

Q:  (To Lori) How do you balance motherhood with ambition? 

 

A:  

I think that shame is part of how we’re conditioned as woman 

Women are 80% more likely to point the finger of blame against themselves than men. 

If you relate this to motherhood, mothers make everything they’re feeling and experiencing about themselves (and trying to fix or change it all on their own) 

I use an approach called Feminine Power, developed by Claire Zammit 

I use this system to help women go in and un-block what’s happening 

Women think that they’re supposed to be able to do everything themselves.  We feel vulnerable or weak for asking for help. This causes us to isolate instead of being in community.

This is part of the culture in the Western World. 

 

Q:  There’s a societal pressure to have everything all together.  It doesn’t leave a lot of room for being real. This is why it’s so important to find supportive tribes. 

What does it feel like to be an awakened mother? 

 

A: 

Even when you’re feeling balanced and things are going well… whoever you have as your idol, or whoever you think has it all together… those people have a full day of emotional experiences themselves too. 

There are different developmental stages, you can have a deeper and wider capacity to be with and create your motherhood.

Develop yourself and have a set of tools, so you can still have challenges, but it doesn’t knock you off emotionally for the rest of the day.

Keep your peace, freedom and power to keep creating for the rest of the day 

 

Q:  What I’m hearing from you, is that an awakened mother still has ups + downs… but she has a tool kit to stay grounded and come back to balance.  What are some of the feminine power tools? 

 

A:  There’s a whole tool box. 

One of the fundamental ones is that what blocks us actually lives in our body. 

There’s a somatic piece, so you learn how to breath into your body, increase your energy, awareness and capacity to be with life 

There are exercises you can do on your own or with other people in the community (eg.  text a buddy) 

These tools get you back to your “homeostasis”/power 

Q:  When you get to a place where you can create peace + space, it opens a space to connect with what’s next.  

Can you speak to this? How do you help women create the space so they can be in their destiny?

 

A: I’m really passionate about

Lisa Roulette - Spiritual Life Coach, Helps Women Heal and Not just Deal 

Q:  Can you tell us about yourself and your story? What inspired you to help others heal? 

 

A:  I lost both my brother and my husband

When I lost my brother, I experienced a contraction in consciousness 

I met my husband, he was like a knight in shining armour 

He also passed, and I hit rock bottom 

I met another man, and fell into a toxic relationship

I really hit rock bottom, and lost my will to live 

I was suicidal, but I had two boys who needed a mom 

I had counselling, medication, support groups 

I realized that I was DEALING with my situation, not healing 

I had a realization that it was really time to HEAL my life and not take my life 

I threw away my medication, fired my therapist, and dedicated myself to finding ways to heal my life and not just deal with my pain 

I realized that I was meant to be alone for this transition 

Now I’m happy, healthy and healed.  

I feel it’s obvious what my life purpose is now

 

Meghan:  I feel amazed and inspired, and grateful that you ended up on top.  How you overcame that is so empowering 

 

Lisa:  Thank you.  I did the work.  I did a lot of work.  There is a lot of work to do. 

 

Q:  I want to talk about traditional therapy.  Why do you think that conventional therapy and medicine doesn’t work for people healing trauma? 

 

A: I don’t want to make a blanket statement and say it “doesn’t work”.. The industry is evolving.  

 

It’s an industry that thrives on failure.  They’re focused on managing pain, rather than transcending it and healing from it 

Energy manifests in the physical realm as an experience, person, or thing.  We want to prevent it from manifesting as a thing… like a tumour. 

There’s a place for medication.  What I did when I threw out my medication was stupid. 

It’s about an expansion of consciousness,a new level of awareness

It’s important to look at it with a holistic perspective.  The real healer is you, you have to believe in your healing and take part in your healing 

 

Meghan:  So it’s really taking the power back, but still leveraging the knowledge in the medical system 

 

Lisa:  Rather than “Take your power back” I would say: “Leverage the power that is already within”.  Realize you are the healer and creator. 

 

Q:  So it’s more about recognizing that you have the power. 

 

A:  I think you have to go a little bit further than discussing “raising your vibe”, but do practices that are going to help you create change in your life 

 

Grow in your awareness and realize how much more you can actually heal. 

 

Recognize that you are healing and creating all the time.

Q:  A lot of people may not recognize that they have something to heal.  They start to recognize it when they keep hitting blocks. 

 

Can you explain, even when it’s not something necessarily traumatic, how this process can help them? 

 

A:  100% of people on the planet have something to heal from 

 

Trauma comes through our genetics 

Bruce Lipton and Joe Dispenza discuss this 

When we look back in time, we find beliefs that have left people in a contracted state of awareness 

 

How do you heal at a deeper level?  It all begins with self-awareness. Asking intelligent questions about what your history looks like, and how that has led you to this place and time.

 

Everything we’re living now, is a reflection of our past. Asking these questions invites a higher level of awareness.

 

It’s about finding your own way and your own path that helps you...not necessarily a specific thing.  Starting to understand your purpose, find significantly greater awareness.

 

It all begins in self-awareness.  It’s hard. It’s just about working on it, and being really honest with yourself.

 

Journalling - mind/hand connection will draw things out from the energy body and help it come out and release.  

 

We look at the anatomy of the energy body a

Topic - Soulful Financial Planning 

 

Q:  (To EveryoneListening) 

 

Are you manifesting the kind of money that you really want?  

 

If you are manifesting money, how do you plan and be smart with it? 

Sarah Matthews - 

 

Free spirited financial planner 

Money mindset coach 

 

Q:  Can money be spiritual? 

 

A:  Absolutely.  We can use the concept of money and wealth in our spiritual journey. 

 

Money in its purest form is energy is spiritual.  When it’s directed towards your values, it can be used to create more of what you want.

 

People can be afraid of money and wealth because they don’t want to seem greedy

 

If you have more money and more resources, you can live a more authentic life. 

 

Meghan:  

 

Money doesn’t make you who you are, it amplifies who you are. 

 

Q:  How do you describe money as an energy?  Do you use this language with your clients? 

 

A:  When we want to attract something, we want to hold that vibration in our thoughts.  It’s about changing the perception of it. 

 

It’s not the dollars and notes with money, it’s about what it can help us manifest and create in our life. 

What’s your purpose for money? 

When you know your goals, the energy of money can support you in achieving those goals

 

Q:  Why do you think so many people have money blocks? 

 

A:  We’re always working on clearing them.  They’re essentially just limiting beliefs. 

 

Limiting Beliefs are something that our subconscious mind is holding onto from a past event 

If you’ve had a bad experience with money in the past, this will affect how you feel about money now 

Self-worth can be a big block, feeling undeserving of more money or abundance 

Money blocks can be elusive, and pop-up when we’re not expecting it 

Like a glass ceiling, determining our feelings about money

 

Q: Do you talk to clients that are not necessarily spiritual about money blocks? 

 

A:  -     Yes, it’s valuable to everyone 

I definitely focus on it more in my one - on - one sessions with more spiritual clients 

There are practical parts of money coaching, and also the subconscious side, and manifestation practices 

 

Q:  How do you teach your clients about manifesting money? 

 

A:  What we focus on grows & expands.  Focus on experiences when you’re actually experiencing abundance NOW

 

Eg.  A lot of people are expecting the income of money, without giving it a second thought 

 

*Instead, really make a conscious choice to celebrate and appreciate when you are receiving any wealth and abundance (Getting paid) 

 

Conscious Mind - Budget, savings, systems

 

Subconscious - Journaling, meditation, visualization, asking: “What is the dream goal you’re trying to manifest?” 

 

*Do journaling just before sleep or when you first wake up 

 

Q:  What are your thoughts on one extreme or the other?  Being focused on budgeting, investing, practical systems, or being only in the manifesting practice without the tools and systems to manage. 

 

A:  The concept of mindfully wealthy is to go at it with both angles.

 

Set up a system - to the point where you can almost automate your finances.  Eliminate low vibration money fears and daily limiting thoughts. 

 

Start focusing your thoughts on your dream goals and what you want to manifest instead.

 

When I started connecting my money purpose to my values and my goals, it started to flow. 

When I brought those two sides together it helped with a lot of anxiety or overwhelm. 

 

Meghan: *It’s so powerful to find someone who really understands both sides. 

To leverage physical and non-physical, conscious and subconscious. 

 

A:  I hope it helps people, it’s changed my life. 

 

Q:  What are some practical things you have your clients do to manage their finances better? 

 

A:   -    Get people to a square one (Look at where your finances are now) 

Money can be a hard thing to talk about 

Get to a point of clarity

Create a spending plan (budget) and make sure it’s aligned with your values and your goals.

Topic:  Matrix Re-imprinting & EFT 

Loretta Morgan 

 

Business coach & Dark guide 

Uses Matrix Re-imprinting and EFT to guide you through your dark parts 

 

Q:  What does a “Dark Guide” mean? 

 

A:  I’ve spent a lot of time navigating my own darkness.  A lot of people are scared of that space 

 

I’ve been able to take what I’ve learned from being in my darkness and apply it to my life 

 

I think of it as a way that I can help people navigate that dark space from a place of experience, and helping them to get to their light 

Q:  Why do you think so many people are afraid to look at their shadow/dark side? 

 

A:  It doesn’t feel nice there.  It’s painful, confronting, and can be traumatic to visit those parts of our psyche. 

 

We think of dark as evil.  

 

But, when we spend time there we learn the skills to be with what is there. 

Q:  Do you think it’s possible to use the light to dissolve the dark, or do we need to go deeper into the dark to heal? 

 

A:  The light is a great way to feel good, and raise our vibration.  

 

But, I believe that we need to be able to look at the dark corners of our psyche, so they don’t keep coming up and sabotaging you and your life. 

 

Meghan:  Loretta has really helped me to understand myself.  It doesn’t have to be big, major traumas. 

 

Q:   Can you explain what Matrix Re-Imprinting is? 

A:  The matrix has a different meaning to a lot of people: 

 

It’s the origin of all : Source, God, the Universe, the Field 

 

Non-physical blueprint. 

 

With Re-Imprinting we go in with a younger or future version of ourselves.  We have a conversation about beliefs, and can re-imprint positive beliefs and clear up old patterns. 

Q:  What are the main reasons or themes that people come to see you? 

 

A:  The main belief that people come to me with is something I will share in the EFT Session that we do together. 

 

Matrix Re-Imprinting is far too much to go through in this conversation, Loretta has an “Enter the Matrix” session that you can have with her (See notes below for link)

For today, we will experience EFT which is part of the Matrix Re-Imprinting 

We will do an EFT Session together 

EFT = Emotional Freedom Technique 

Clear what you’re doing, take a calming breath…

Loretta:  I really feel that we operate from one of two places:  

 

Love or Fear…. Emotions can fit under one of these two categories 

 

*Today I want to work on Fear, because it’s a universal feeling.  

It’s so common, and it underpins so much of what we feel in our lives. 

 

With EFT, it’s ideal to work on a specific issue.

Think of an individual experience where you’ve had fear come up 

Eg:  “What is the number one thing that you think it’s holding you back from achieving the level of success that you want in the world?”

Topic:  The Truth about the Law of Attraction

 

Jaclyn Nicole Johnston 

Best Selling author of “Don’t Feel Stuck!” 

Manifestation & Mindset Coach 

Q:  When did you discover the Law of Attraction?  Did it work for you right away?

 

A:  I only discovered it about 3 years ago.  I work with physicists. I only bought “The Secret” about 3 years ago. 

 

I love science & psychology.  The Law of Attraction is an actual physical law.  I did my own experiment to see if it worked, and I manifested a great amount in my life in only 10 months.  I was fascinated, so I wrote a book about it. 

Q:  You said you manifested 99% of your desires in 10 months.  What were they? 

 

A:  The Law of Attraction is actually very simple.  It’s not a complex process. I practiced and manifested a new car, got out of $29 K of debt, and my book went best seller.  I manifested my best friend & soul mate. He was exactly who I wrote out about how I wanted our relationship to be. I met Bruce Springsteen (My icon) 

 

It works.  

Q:  You also recently wrote an article on manifesting weight loss. 

 

A:  Yes, it was serendipitous because I raised my level of consciousness.  I started accepting myself & my body the way I am, and the stress left my body. 

Q:  I want to dive into the common misconceptions about the LOA.  What are some other misconceptions? 

 

A:  Teachers and Gurus don’t always say… it CAN be an instant gratification process, but it isn’t always.   It can happen fast as soon as you surrender to not knowing the outcome.

 

When you stop trying to control your surroundings, and stop struggling so much, you can go with the flow and release the outcome.  

 

It’s always working.  When you struggle you’re pushing it away, so what you’re trying to manifest takes longer to come to you. 

 

Thoughts have a particle vibrations.  Feelings have an intensified vibration of energy.  Energy can’t be created or destroyed, it can only be influenced upon itself. 

 

It works by saying: “This is what I want… this is what I’m choosing to be open & available to” 

 

You can compound the effect by taking consistent daily action, and let go of the need to control the outcome and the surroundings. 

Q:  How do you take action, without trying to control and cause resistance to what we want? 

 

A:  It’s like a balancing act (kids toy example) 

 

Trying not to have a strong attachment to it, because that is subconsciously pushing it farther away.  (Let go of needy attachment) 

 

It’s more like a choice.  I’m going to do this. Set your intention on receiving what you want.  You can turn up the volume, and practice becoming who/what you are creating. 

 

As though you are an actor.  Practicing/playing the role of what you’re becoming. 

 

It’s about making the decision and not wavering at all with it.  

Q:  Can you take us through the Manifesting process? 

 

A:   Everyone in the world wants something to believe in.  

 

It’s a process of trusting yourself, and trusting the process.  Really & truly choosing the thought that you want to focus on.

 

I take at least 5 min/day and write out everything that I’m calling into my physical sphere.  I write it as though it’s already there, and I express gratitude (saying thank you). 

 

Turn up the volume of your choice/volume/focus.  

 

Practice and train yourself into your new role.  

 

Breakdown old beliefs and let them go, re-establish new beliefs. 

 

I usually finish by saying something like:  

 

“I am now allowing the universe to reflect my desires back to me” 

 

Saying thank you in advance, letting go of the attachment 

 

Relax and have fun.  Like attracts like. Allow change.  There’s no such thing in the universe that is constant, except for change. 

Q:  Can you relate your process to how you cleared all of that debt? 

 

A:  It took me about 2 years to change my mindset about money energy.  Once I was able to approach money from a different angle, I was writing things like: 

 

I know everything is ok 

I know it’s going to work

Co-owner of MeetGeraldine - a brand & web strategy company, and co-host of the entrepreneurship YouTube talk show: "Doin the Damn Thing"

A business coach that understands the spiritual side of running a business! 

Q:  What was your entrepreneurial journey? 

 

A:  Being an entrepreneur was probably In me from birth

      -     Lemonade stand when I was 6 

Babysitters club when I was in Junior High

Voted most likely to be a used car salesman

Both of my parents ran a business out of my home 

I couldn’t see myself taking over my Dad’s business, so I did a degree, but was still unsure of my path 

I went to beauty school, wrote my first business plan 

I was an assistant to a woman who taught me a lot about business and introduced me to the Law of Attraction

After all of that, I decided to go to business school to help my Dad

Seeing how my parents ran their business gave me an example, getting an MBA taught me structures & strategy 

I had a promotion company for a Hip Hop CD, and a health & wellness business

I Teach How to Start a Business at a local University in the Bay Area (California)

I’ve had a lot of experience with what works and what doesn’t work 

 

Q:  To anyone listening, let us know if you’re an entrepreneur 

 

Q:  What was your process in creating this Blissful Business? 

 

A:  -     I loved the word “Bliss” 

For people listening, think for a moment about “What is Bliss” or what is a recent moment when you felt bliss? 

 

Eg.  Connection to other people and to yourself, connection to nature, water + trees 

 

Channel your higher self, connect to bliss 

I noticed in South America and other countries people really take time to connect to each other 

 

Some things about being an entrepreneur really appeal to me: 

Being my own boss 

Being in control of my own money 

 

The phrase “If you own a business, it really owns you” 

I was like, “Why?”  

 

So we declared that this is not what we’re interested in.  My business partner and I set the intention that we both wanted 3 months/year off. 

 

We started to create a team that could support us and our desire to be able to take time off. 

There wasn’t any step or system that only one person knew how to do, so we could share the work. 

 

We set up the systems so we can have the same philosophy with our team, and allow them to take time off as well. 

 

 

Q:  What other ingredients have you injected to create this “Blissful Business” feel? 

 

A:  Declaring it.  Tell other people, tell your teammates.  Make it happen 

 

Communication:  Between my partner and I, and with our team

 

We schedule meetings while we are away on our trips, do a check in call every other week. 

Clear systems of finding documents, clear calendar and schedule.  

 

Commitment.  Commitment to unplug, step away, and allow yourself to be absent.

 

Honour your promise to yourself to take a break 

Q:  *It’s hard as an entrepreneur.  When you have an identity that is attached to your work. 

When you take time off, is there a part of you that wants to work, or feels drawn back to work? 

 

A:  No. It may be from watching my Dad work while we were on vacation when I was a kid.  I love my personal time and nurturing the other sides of myself. It’s all about balance. 

 

Asking:  “Do you really want work to be everything for you?” 

 

Q:   Can you share about the article that you wrote for Clouds & Dirt?  How you incorporate “Woo Woo” and spiritual aspects into your business?

 

A:   We’ve incorporated a lot of spirituality into our business over the years.  We had someone come and bless our office.  

 

We have a money corner that we use to attract money.  We do a money dance whenever we get a cheque.  

 

Affirmations are key.  We write pages of affirmations every day.  It’s reinforcement of how to keep yourself going 

 

We also talk about it if we’re feeling down. 

 

We have money spray, money candle.  We use sage to clear the energy and re-set for abundance

Topic - Aligning with Purpose 

 

Dr. Renata Taravski 

 

Alignment coach, naturopathic doctor

Offers 6 week soul alignment coaching 

60 minute soul alignment sessions 

 

Q:  What was your process/journey or awakening that led you to become an alignment coach? 

 

A:  I’ve had many awakenings, but I will mention the most impactful one.   

Wasn’t feeling well in University - was getting seizures, eating disorder, IBS. - Was not feeling like herself (lost touch with who she was) 

 

Was experiencing a lot of anxiety.  Went to the doctor and didn’t want a drug to work on her systems of stress, anxiety, mental health imbalance

 

Was a very pros/cons person, had strong intuition… and discovered naturopathic medicine as a path of study.  Went with her gut, a calling from her soul to study. Started to understand how stress and trauma manifest, opened up to spirituality.  

 

After graduating, she filled her schedule as a naturopathic doctor, and found that she still wasn’t happy or fulfilled 

 

Asked herself:  What do you really want to do? 

 

Answer:  Help people align with their true soul purpose.  Took a lot of spiritual courses and changed her offerings.  To her, medicine was deeper, more about being out of alignment and having symptoms in the physical body.  

Q:  What does the word “Purpose” mean?  Does everyone have a purpose? 

 

A:  Elusive word in spirituality.  Everyone does have a purpose. We collapse our purpose with our career or job (typically).  It’s a misunderstanding.

 

Purpose:  

 

Speaking your truth with others 

 

Unraveling who you think you should be and being who you already are  

 

Being authentic/honorable in your actions 

 

It’s always unfolding, exploring what you’re curious about  

 

Leveraging your strengths, honouring that, leveraging it, sharing it with the world (Not just in your job or career) 

 

Common Responses in the Clouds + Dirt Community:  

 

Feel joy 

Follow our calling/intuition/inner voice 

 

*If you’re listening, share in comments or a DM, What is your purpose? 

 

Q:  Do you think we have a “Soul’s Mission”? 

 

A:  Yes, I do align with that belief.  It feels definite to me that it’s my purpose to help people align with their purpose 

Q:  Do you believe that we’re all here for a Higher purpose? 

 

A:  I do believe that, but everyone has to check in with themselves 

 

People are scared of judgement, not getting connection and love 

Q:  Are more people reaching out and looking for their purpose? 

 

A:  Yes, compared to the last 10 years 

Q:  What is the process that you take people through to find their purpose? 

 

A:  It’s customized.  I often get people who feel stuck, or people who are in transition.

Q:  How do you work against the thoughts that want to hold you back from feeling good? 

 

A:  Get present to what the real impact of the choice is.  Not confusing excitement with fear 

Q:  What are some personal examples of things getting you into alignment, or pull you out?

Topic: Decoding your past lives in the present moment 

Mariel Heather - Shamanic and Spiritual Mentor

Offering an Upcoming Course : Awakening your shamanic blue-print

 

Q: What was your journey in becoming a Shaman?

A: Always knew, but fought against it.... had other businesses (journalism and clothing business)

Started to feel unfulfilled around her 30th birthday

Was getting Intuitive messages through dreams and thoughts

Went to a sound bath (healing)

Went to 3 different soul returns (past lives) in the sound bath

Experience was Intense, she felt freaked out

Discovered that she was a Shaman in a past life, and these experiences were here to show her that she was not on her divine path in this life. She discovered this through knowing how to read and receive signs

Q: Would you say that we all have past lives?

A: Yes, and I've noticed with myself and my clients that most of our issues are from past lives

 

Q: So things that trigger us, that we don't have a conscious understanding of in this life, could be from a past life?

A: It could be. Time is not linear. The soul can carry trauma though different lives, but it can heal now

 

Q: Can you explain?

A: It's the same soul in every body in each lifetime

If something traumatic happened in a past life, it's still with you if it wasn't healed

If you heal something now, it's the same as healing it then... because time isn't linear

Q: Can you give an example of how past lives show up?

A: One example is irrational fears – Eg claustrophobia, fear of anything around your neck (could be strangling)

 

Q: What else can you decode?

A: Things that show up in relationships. If it isn't healed, it will continue to repeat. Karmic relationships are in your life to play out lessons. Karmic relationships are usually not good relationships, they are to teach us lessons

 

Q: How are past lives related to healing from ancestral wounds?

A: Lineage is a little different from past lives. Lineage is all in this lifetime. Anything you clear goes 7 generations back and 7 generations forward

Your healing affects people in your family (past and future)

 

Q: If you're listening live.... Does anyone know their past lives? Is there anything you are aware of from a past life?

 

Q:  Other than looking at fears, and relationships, how else can you decode past lives?

A: Reoccurring dreams, Meditation with Intention (Eg. "Show me any past lives that need healing" "Is this related to a past life?")

Topic - Manifestation Made Simple

 

Megan Elias - Manifestation and mindset coach

 

Q: What was your journey to becoming a manifestation and mindset coach?

 

A: A few years ago, I was feeling depressed and out of control about my life. Reached a point where I knew that something had to change

 

Said out Loud: "I need help"

 

Next Day – Received a message about a workshop, and went. Learned about manifestation and the Law of Attraction. The host of the workshop became my personal coach.

 

Literally asked for something and received it the next day

 

Q; Did you recognize it as manifestation at the time?

 

A: I felt it was a coincidence, serendipitous, luck

Q: How would you describe what manifestation is?

 

A: You're manifesting all the time, whether you know it or not

Bringing your thoughts or imagination into reality

 

You're already doing it, you may not be doing it consciously

 

To me, it's something to do consciously, so you can have more choice about what you're creating in your life

Q: How would you describe it to someone who has created a reality that they're not happy with?

 

A: Remove the idea of blaming yourself, realize it's just conditioning and beliefs that you've picked up from your life. It's not your fault, but once you're aware of it, it's something that you can change

 

Be aware of where you're currently at, what you choose to focus on. Where are you believing thoughts that aren't actually true?

 

Q: It sounds simple, but how easy is it to be aware of your thoughts?

 

A; You can start by focussing on your emotions, they can guide you to the thoughts.

Q: Why do you think people overcomplicate it and feel resistance? Why do we make the process of manifestation hard?

 

A; It depends on your own experiences, and what you're good at. You might be good at manifesting in one area, and not another. It's all based on what you believe.

 

Some areas will be more challenging based on your beliefs.

 

Use awareness and your emotions as a compass

 

Q: Example of someone unhappy in a 9-5 job manifesting a new job/life

 

A: It depends on how much you're willing to expand your beliefs. Think of it as a ladder of changing your beliefs. Move incrementally so you can really believe in it.  Move in steps until you can get there

 

Q; Process : Ask, Believe, Receive. How much do we need to be attached to the outcome, and how much do we need to be in joy?

 

A: A combination. Make a very clear decision about what you want, and why you want it.

 

Firm, clear: “This is happening, this is how things are now”... from a very decisive space

 

Big Piece: Gratitude, appreciate where you are right now. Understand the journey

Trust that it will come at the right time, and in the right way

Know what we want, but not be too rigid

 

Appreciate what is here and now, and also open to receiving more

 

Q: What are some of the ways that you coach people, that you teach manifestation to make it easy to apply?

 

A: Break it into steps. Recognize the middle piece where the old beliefs and resistance come up

 

Middle mindset work makes the process easy, when you address your mind and it's objections and old beliefs. Find the beliefs that aren't helping you. Tell your mind: “That's not true anymore”. Tell it what you want (repeatedly)           

Bridge conscious and subconscious (affirmations)

 

Q: What is the manifestation process that you give to your clients?

 

A: With affirmations, they need to be emotionally charged. There has to be some personal meaning behind it.  How you can get something into your mind as frequently as possible?

 

Q: What are some other ways that we can make manifestation simple?

 

A: Trusting in it. Having an overall knowing that everything is ok, everything's working out, it's going to happen in the right time in the right way

 

An overriding feeling of "everything is ok" , knowing that you're supported

TRUST**

 

Trust, surrender, allow it to happen

 

Affirmation example: "It's already done"

 

Q: Do you have any

Topic – 4 Steps to Releasing Fear and Stepping into YOU

 

Stef Iliff – CEO and founder of Powerhouse, Woman Empowerment Coach and Motivational Speaker, Mom, podcaster *Free Events once/month in Utah 

 

Q – What was your journey, stepping into YOU?

 

A -  You're always fully evolving with self-actualization.  Asking myself: Who do I really want to be and why do I want to be that person?

- Started 3 years ago, with a mistake

- I started asking: Who is my best self, how do I become that best self? 

- Who do I want to be, how do I show up as that person every day? 

- Doing Inner Work: Letting go of guilt, shame, inner child work

- Learning to stop self sabotaging, learning self love

Comment: Gratitude for an opportunity to prioritize and create change, forgiveness

 

Q – Why do you think that so many women in our society have self-love issues?

 

A – Social media, comparison, judging ourselves, ideas of what the world thinks we "should" be doing.  We become afraid of loving ourselves because we don't know who we actually are.

The idea of not being enough

Who are you under the layers of who you think you should be/have to be to make others happy?

Mirror work – practice looking into your soul 

Learning to practice feeling worthy

Stef will post some information about mirror work and mirror therapy and how powerful it is for self love  

Learn to love your body, practice receiving love

Once you see this love in yourself, you can let others see you

 

Q – What are you doing as a mother, to show your girls self love?

 

A – Affirmations, morning and at night.

 

Gratitide – Love for the world will create self love

Believe that you can do it – example with Stef's daughter opening up a door. Believe in yourself, so others will believe in you too

Giving a foundation at a young age, helping children know that they can acheive whatever they believe

Teaching her daughters not to judge each other and compare.

 

Practice: When you start judging people, go up close and get to know them. Practice complimenting

 

Don't assume, go ask. Example of talking to the woman at the gym about being healthy for her kids Show love instead of comparison

 

When you show love + light, you start to become open to receiving love

 

Comment: If we're judging, it can often be because we don't feel worthy in some area of our own lives. Asking: "Why am I thinking this way right now?" Take action to change that thought.

Q – Why do you think so many of us live in fear? What aspect of fear are we consumed by on a daily basis?

 

A – Media. Eg. Not watching TV, being conscious of what we're consuming

Gossip, judgement, comparisson, the idea of "You have to look like this to be worthy"

Let your SOUL shine instead

We're afraid to just BE and live by our own design 

 Afraid of not being enough*

Comment: 

Realizing that nothing will make you happy until you find happiness within. Then, you can see the world with love, because you found it within yourself. 

 

Elevate your vibration and access what is available from that place.

Q – What does it look like to "Embrace YOU"?

 

A – Finding out who you really are, getting to know yourself.

Knowing what you really like, not what the world wants you to do

Practice a guided meditation to see the best version of yourself 

Ask:

 

Who do you want to be?

In order to get to who you want to be, what did you have to let go of?

 

Where did old stories come from? How can you forgive, find the lesson, change the story?

Power of thought, power of choice

 

Life is a gift that happened for you, not to you

 

If you want a new ending, you have to change the story. Decide: I'm not going to live that way anymore.

What do you want to have happen?

 

Believe in yourself that you can do it, take intense action.

 

Comment: 

Empowerment: Letting people realize that they have a choice

 

Q – How often do you see people are confined by old beliefs? How do you practice releasing these beliefs? 

A – We go through a process of understanding what
