The Sheri + Nancy Show

Are you lucky? Two wise and renowned teachers and authors – Gay Hendricks and Carol Kline – dial up the conversation around making your dreams come true with their absolutely delightful new book, Conscious Luck: 8 Secrets to Change your Fortune. Their message is that we are each as lucky as we think we are. We're listening!

Carol shines the light on what Tina Seelig (Stanford University professor) meant when she said, "People think of luck as a lightning strike, but it's really a wind that's always blowing." Luck is so much your own creation. It's the art of raising your sails to capture the wind of luck that's wafting around you at all times.

Gay offers this gem: Let's use this time in the world to empower ourselves with new tools for creating a lucky life. It's all about deciding to be lucky. He shares a story from his childhood to illustrate when and where he realized that luck is a deliberate, intentional choice. He says that every breath you take is a choice between creativity and stagnation. So let's dedicate our breath to creating and then watching what happens.

Nancy loves this line from Gay and Carol's book: "If you can create your life one way, you can create it another way." We each have an upper limit problem. Things start getting good, and then old fears arise. But we are at the helm of our lucky lives. It's all about the thoughts we think. We can change the circumstances of our lives by changing our minds.

And talk about lucky… at the end of the show, Nancy announces an exciting new BETTER: Thrive Market. What a find. An online, membership-based market of the highest quality, sustainable, organic products you can imagine, all at an AMAZING discount. When you join through The PIllar Life you get a $20 shopping credit! Online shopping for food, bev and home products has never been easier or BETTER.

Jack Canfield is back! He joins Sheri + Nancy this week in their continuing journey through his amazing Success Principles Workbook. Jack talks about how to transcend fear in these challenging times by focusing on the goals you're dreaming for yourself. You can't worry and focus on the positive at the same time, so now's the time to make the best choice for ourselves and our futures.

Jack recommends a special meditation, created by Dawson Church, which combines EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique, i.e. "tapping") and Heartmath. It's been shown to increase immunoglobulins that help fight viruses. (Link below.)

The conversation moves on to goal setting, which is all about reviewing the areas of your life you really care about (that's the Eight Pillars for us) and turning your dreams and visions into specifics – giving form to intention. Start with an easy goal that you can accomplish in less than six weeks and build some success. Rather than saying you'll work out "every day" say you'll commit to six days a week, so if you miss a day you've given yourself a chance to get back on track. Set goals and think about them, write them down, share them with a friend. Accountability leads to success.

Jack tells us that he sets three goals every year of his life. He wants us all to identify a breakthrough goal – that's anything that would make a quantum leap in your life in the space of 12 months. And he shares this nugget: you may lose the things you've manifested, but mastery is knowing you can achieve your goals again and again.

Sheri + Nancy dive into affirmations with Jack. An affirmation is a short statement that creates dynamic tension in the brain and leads to creative solutioning to achieve your dream. Jack teaches a process called ideal vision to add to that affirmation. Imagine all the details of what you want to manifest. Make it emotional so that it really resonates.

To end the show, Jack shares his powerful daily affirmation and visualization practice. It's breakthrough-level good.

Sheri and Nancy are diving into the deep end of the pool, embracing Jack Canfield's best-selling The Success Principles Workbook in a big way, and wow… things are happening.

Nancy has had an epiphany. She sees that she's a life-long excuse maker and finally decides to master this part of her life, starting with a daily yoga practice she's been putting off for too long. In the same vein, Sheri realizes she complains too much and has decided to make a huge shift to a non-blaming, non-complaining life.

Nancy leads us through Chapter 2 of the workbook, which is all about finding our life's purpose. She looks back on her most joyful times: raising her kids, falling in love with David, working with her beloved BrandStory clients. Sheri talks about finally coming out from behind the scenes and claiming her space on the center stage. One big takeaway from this chapter is that sometimes realizing your life's purpose is more a subtle knowing than an explosion of fireworks.

Sheri leads Chapter 3, which is all about envisioning your ideal life (Sheri calls this Chapter "Desire and Conjure"). Jack's first gem of the chapter is that you deserve to have everything in your life, exactly as you want it. His second gem is, for every goal you have, 10x it (especially your money dreams). Pillar by Pillar, Sheri and Nancy review how to vision each area of their lives, dreaming beyond all their previous expectations. They vow to make it part of their morning Dream Practice.

Here's what we know for sure: There's no happy ending to an unhappy journey (Abraham-Hicks). The Success Principles Series is an exercise in upliftment. Join in and have some fun.

We're all still in lock down, separately and together, and Sheri and Nancy discuss their feelings and mood swings over the past week. They come up with some tactics to keep their Pillar Lives on track and their spirits uplifted during these unsettling times.

In-Q, poet, performance artist and wisdom keeper, joins Sheri and Nancy to offer his own perspective on the state of the world. He shares his practice for staying present and aware in the unusual "Now" we all find ourselves in, and offers a particularly interesting angle on the benefit of meditation, which has to do with developing the right emotional "muscle" to resist overreacting to external events. In-Q reads two of Sheri and Nancy's favorite poems from his beautiful new book of poetry, Inquire Within, and ends the episode by asking them what they would do if they had only 60 seconds left on earth. By all measures, this was the conversation we needed this week

And as always, Sheri reads Nancy their latest iTunes reviews from the DreamTribe, which never fails to make them smile.

Sheri has been a magazine fanatic for most of her life, and in fact her habit of tearing out pages of magazines to save ideas for better things, places, people and ideas was the foundation of Sheri + Nancy's "Betters" … but all that has changed folks. Sheri's practically had a meltdown about the state of publishing. She unpacks it for Nancy as the show opens.

Then Sheri + Nancy announce their first esteemed faculty member for DreamCamp 2020. It's none other than Sarah Centrella, the expert on manifesting your dream life with Future Boards. Sarah is back in this episode sharing some of the amazing things she's created in her own life using her signature tools, and what she has planned for our DreamCamp.

Sheri + Nancy also reveal the best-selling Better of the week. Nancy gets candle suggestions from the DreamTribe, and lots of new DreamTribers have figured out how to leave iTunes reviews (we could not be more grateful).

What's your superpower? For best-selling author Jen Pastiloff, it's listening, and her near-total hearing loss turned her on to how essential listening can be, along with dropping your bullshit stories, and above all else, hunting for beauty in every scene and scenario, no matter how small or hidden that beauty may seem.

Jen joins Sheri and Nancy for an intimate conversation about struggle and triumph, how to cope with challenges, rise above them, and find what you're meant to do and be and know.

Jen wrote a stunningly personal and vulnerable memoir, On Being Human, and in it she describes why her personal mantra is: Let me have done love. Don't miss this intimate conversation about beauty, joy and being human.

In the Blue Zones people eat better and live longer. It's a fascinating window into what we can learn from cultures and their cuisines. Sheri and Nancy are ALL IN. They have eliminated sugar, cut back on alcohol, removed dairy, and things are looking and feeling pretty good.

Dan Buettner joins the episode to talk all about Blue Zones and his latest best seller, The Blue Zones Kitchen (oh how we love to dig into recipes). Dan is part anthropologist, part travel writer, part amazing cook. He reveals the secrets to living longer, healthier lives through food, movement and community.

These secrets have been passed down from generation to generation and yes, Dan actually sat in kitchens with grandmas watching them add a pinch here and a pinch there to create their peasant food masterpieces. This conversation is everything we love about food: real, honest, whole goodness. Bring it!

Oh how we love our girlfriends. They are among the most important relationships of our lives. This week, Sheri + Nancy go way back in time, to their first meeting at Nancy's house in Chicago 30 years ago. They've seen each other through thick and thin over the years, and their friendship has evolved in miraculous ways. Sheri calls it a spiritual partnership and Nancy loves that they spend more and more time talking about concepts and ideas that uplift and inspire, and less time talking about people.

This episode also features two amazing podcasters, the Great Girlfriends themselves, co-founders Sybil Amuti and Brandice Daniel. Together they unpack the ins and out of discovering great friendships, tending to them, or letting them go when it's time to move on.

And hey, here are more fabulous ways to meet new friends and spread the love: Join our private Facebook group — TPL DreamMates — which continues to grow, with meetups happening all over the world. And come to DreamCamp in August for a rip-roaring good time. And find one person to share the podcast with. Because we all need more great girlfriends in our lives.
