00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: and welcome to another episode of the Rise and Conquer Podcasts. Today,

13
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: I am coming to you with a solo podcast. It

14
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: is Sunday morning. I've actually just done a bit of

15
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: work in bed this morning with my coffee, which is

16
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: something I love doing if I'm working on the weekend.

17
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: And then I went for a really nice walk on

18
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: the beach and I've actually been listening to this like

19
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: tape with like mantras, and then I came back and

20
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: did a little meditation I'm feeling very calm, very zen,

21
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: and I just had this idea for this podcast, so

22
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: not planned as usual with my solo podcast, but today

23
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: I want to chat to you about honoring the season

24
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: that you were in. So this has come about because

25
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: I'm in a season. I don't know if I've actually

26
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: told you guys this yet. I get confused what I have,

27
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: but I'm currently in a season of slow and this

28
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: is because was previously probably the last six months, I

29
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: just had a very hectic schedule with the live podcast

30
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: events like launching naked harvests and just a couple of

31
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:18,399
Speaker 1: personal things, and it really feels like I've been on

32
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: this like automation, like I have not had time to stop,

33
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: and I've just been like smashing out content, smashing out

34
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: things really happy and I love doing that sort of thing.

35
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: But probably a good month ago I really felt this

36
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: kind of like inner intuition feeling that I just I

37
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: needed to slow down. And it very much felt like

38
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: physically like I felt just very exhausted and drained. Mentally,

39
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: I felt very creatively blocked. Actually I definitely did talk

40
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,839
Speaker 1: about this in my Creating Space podcasts, and so yeah,

41
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 1: I really had this feeling of I just want to

42
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 1: create space, I just want to go a bit slower.

43
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:05,119
Speaker 1: And for me that it was a very foreign concept because,

44
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: like you guys know, like I'm a very fast paced person.

45
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: I went straight from high school and to doing my

46
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: law degree, and then while I was doing that, I

47
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: was doing all my social media, and then I started

48
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: a side business, and then I went full time, and

49
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: then I started a podcast and then Naked Harvest and

50
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,959
Speaker 1: just going one hundred miles per hour all the time,

51
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: and I love it. I really kind of feed off

52
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: that sort of stuff. My personality is like, that's me

53
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: and that's amazing. But you can imagine how I feel

54
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: when my body and mind is kind of like something

55
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: inside me is just like you need to go slow.

56
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: So it took me a while to even realize what

57
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: I needed to do. But now I'm in this season,

58
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, this is exactly where I need to be, exactly,

59
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: this is exactly what I need to do. So it

60
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: feels right for me. But in saying that, I do

61
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: have these feelings that pop up that try and get

62
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: me out of you know, this good feeling and this

63
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: flow we'll call it. So stuff pops up like, you know,

64
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: if I'm slowing down, does that mean that I'm going

65
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: to get taken over by forgotten about? You know, a

66
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: people are going to take my good ideas or you know,

67
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,239
Speaker 1: just is something going to happen because I'm slowing down?

68
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: And I've realized that this is such a fear based

69
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: mentality that I know we all get that really tries

70
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: to take off this like aligned path where we're supposed

71
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: to be. And I know you guys might also be

72
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 1: in a certain season and you kind of you know

73
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: you should be there, you know what you're doing, but

74
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: this fear based mentality does come up, it rears its head,

75
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: and it's kind of like it puts self doubt in

76
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: your mind. And so I really want to to talk

77
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: about this and really create a podcast that's about, you know,

78
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: telling you guys and telling myself really that when you

79
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 1: are in a season and you know you're supposed to

80
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 1: be in this season, of really honoring it. So stop

81
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: looking around and feeling like you're missing out or you're

82
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: doing something, you're not doing something you should be doing,

83
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: and just really trust where you need to be, trust

84
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: your intuition, and don't live in that fear based mentality.

85
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: So for example, I actually have a friend at the

86
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: moment and she is saving, well, she's not saving for

87
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: a house. Her and her partner have already they've already

88
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: got a mortgage and they're building a house, but they

89
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: currently live in a rental house, so they're having to

90
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 1: you know, pay the mortgage they're building a new house,

91
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 1: or the expenses plus pay rent. So basically she can't

92
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: do too much because she's got to save money for that.

93
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 1: And we were discussing how, you know, she does feel

94
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: like she's missing out on things because she's literally having

95
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 1: to say no, I can't afford that. And she is

96
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: a social butterfly, so she's kind of she used to

97
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 1: always doing stuff with us, always coming to the events,

98
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: and you know, kind of doing whatever she wants to

99
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: do in regards to money. And she kind of said

100
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: that she was feeling like isolated and she was feeling

101
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: like she was missing out. But we had a big

102
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: discussion about it, and then she said, you know, this

103
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: is my current season, and instead of looking outwards and

104
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: feeling like I'm missing out and feeling isolated and all

105
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: that sort of stuff, I need to trust that the

106
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: season I'm in, I need to kind of, you know,

107
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 1: be in this season and do it. And I know

108
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: when I'm out of this season, I'll have money to

109
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: you know, come and do whatever I want to do

110
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 1: or hang with my friends and imagine how great I'm

111
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: going to feel because I've been in that previous season

112
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: of saving money. And I feel like we can all

113
00:06:55,960 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: have seasons. So you know, you might be complete opposite me,

114
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: and you might be in this season of just getting

115
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: shit done, like Boss girl mode, getting stuff done, and

116
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: you might be going one hundred miles an hour, and

117
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: then you know you might be feeling like, oh, should

118
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: I be slowing down? You know what am I doing?

119
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: The self doubt comes up. But if you really feel

120
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: aligned in what you're doing and it almost feels easy

121
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: to be in that season of get shit done, like

122
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: that is where you're meant to be. This can also

123
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: be a season of you know, maybe training and eating.

124
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: Maybe you're in a season of it's just not a

125
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: priority at the moment. You're not training as much as

126
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,559
Speaker 1: you usually would or eating as healthy as usually would

127
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: maybe work as the priority. And I think you need

128
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: to realize that things ebb and flow so at the

129
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: moment because you're training and eating isn't necessarily a priority,

130
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean it never will be. And if you

131
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: really need to be in a season where you know,

132
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: work or whatever it is, is a parity, then you

133
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: need to trust in that. Or maybe it's something like

134
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: you aren't seeing your friends as much at the moment

135
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: because you're so busy, and you know, you have these

136
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: feelings of guilt and you know, will they be there

137
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: when I'm finished or anything like that, and maybe this

138
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: just isn't your season to be social. Like I know,

139
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: I literally had two years, two full years where I

140
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: just really did not see like even my best friend,

141
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: I barely even saw her. But then I had this

142
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: year after where I was like this social butterfly and

143
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: I was like going out, I was seeing everyone. And

144
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 1: I think it's about honoring that, because a big thing

145
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: for me is realizing that everything ebbs and flows. And

146
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: if you're currently in this season and you're almost like

147
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: pushing against it and you're not honoring the season that

148
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: you're in, it will feel really hard and it will

149
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: not feel good. So for example, like maybe you're really

150
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: trying to push something, so you're really trying to push

151
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: an idea or push in a like a relationship and

152
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 1: it's just not working. And so I think you need

153
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: to take a step back and realize in my life,

154
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: where am I not listening to my intuition, aligning with

155
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: where I meant to be, and honoring the season that

156
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: I'm in. I'm definitely that person who previously, you know,

157
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: if I wanted something or wanted to do something or

158
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: anything like that, like I would just push and push

159
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: and push. But now I've realized that that just doesn't

160
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: work and things don't have to be so hard. And

161
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: that was a big thing for me actually with training

162
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,319
Speaker 1: and eating, Like I would go through seasons where it

163
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 1: was just so easy to get like forty five minute

164
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: work in every single day, to eat healthy, like it

165
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: just was seamless, and then there was seasons where it

166
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: felt so difficult. And I always find like when things

167
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: are so difficult and if they're just not working, I

168
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: would then turn my attention to something else, focus on

169
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: where I needed to align myself as something else in

170
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: my life, and like I said, things will ebb and flow,

171
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: so then that would come back again in the future.

172
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: Before we continue, I'm quickly interrupting this podcast to proudly

173
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: introduce this week's episode sponsor Naked Harvest Supplements. As you

174
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: may already know, Naked Harvest is a natural supplement company

175
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: I co founded with my brother. So here's the exciting news.

176
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: We just launched our newest product, range, Thrive plant Protein.

177
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: Now Thrive is not just your average protein. Not only

178
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,960

179
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: but it is also packed full of functional superfoods, adaptogens,

180
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: and minut yeuals to promote a thriving, healthy body. Our

181
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: aim was to create a plant based protein supplement, but

182
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: rework the formula so it provides you with so much

183
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: more than your regular run of the mill protein. So

184
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 1: this means no more needing to add extra ingredients to

185
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: your smoothie or post workout shake. Thrive has it all

186
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: so of course, as a protein, it builds lean muscle

187
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 1: and helps repair tissue, but it also provides you with

188
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: extra tummy love, increased energy hormone balance, mental performance, and

189
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: immune protection. With ingredients like Siberian gin, syng organic macropowder

199
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 1: now let's get straight back into the episode. Another thing

200
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,959
Speaker 1: that I'm doing differently is previously in my business, I

201
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: was kind of like logical, So if I was deciding

202
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: on a partnership or a next step or a new project,

203
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: I would ask myself, you know, to suit my business,

204
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: is it a good opportunity. Rather, now I'm getting really

205
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: clear and asking myself does it excite me? And does

206
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: it spark joy? Because I really feel like I'm in

207
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: the season where that's my end goal, Like that's what

208
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: I want the result to be. So they're the questions

209
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: I want to ask myself. So maybe things feel really

210
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: difficult and really hard at the moment because you're not

211
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: aligning with your true, authentic and result, like maybe you

212
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: need to start asking yourself different questions of what you

213
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: really want. I know I keep saying this, but I

214
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: really love this concept of everything ebbs and flows. So

215
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 1: if you're in a season of slow maybe you have

216
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: creativity blocks, trust that soon or somewhere in the future

217
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: that it's going to come back. So if there's anything

218
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: lacking in your life now, don't live in the fear

219
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 1: mentality of you're never going to get it. Just have

220
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: faith and trust that you know it's not happening at

221
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: the moment. That's all good. I'm going to focus on

222
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: what needs to be more aligned in my life and

223
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: just kind of I call it surrendering. And this is

224
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: something that has been quite hard for me because I

225
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: am someone who I'm just such a control freak, Like

226
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: I'm a tipaid control freak. So I've had to learn

227
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 1: this process of really surrendering the outcome, surrendering and just

228
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: going Okay, what do I need to do, like guide

229
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: me universe. And it's actually funny because I don't talk

230
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: about this too much, but I love doing meditation at

231
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: the moment and I have this really cool mantra that

232
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: I say, so for example, I'll often do a meditation

233
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: where I sit down and I recite a mantra. I

234
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: put on some really nice like meditation music, and I

235
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: set my alarm for five or ten minutes and I

236
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: get my breath really long and you know, relaxing, and

237
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: then I just recite this mantra for the whole time,

238
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: and I say, I trust the universe is guiding me

239
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: exactly where I need to be. And so I'll often

240
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: do this if you know those kind of the fear

241
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: mentality is popping up, if the self doubt is popping up.

242
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, but so for example,

243
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: I'm in this season of slow, and then I'll go

244
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: on Instagram and I'll see that, you know, some girl

245
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: is doing this big new project and it seems really exciting,

246
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: and you know, this thought pops up and I'm like,

247
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: maybe I need to do a new project or start

248
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: this or do that. And then I've got to kind

249
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: of push it down and stop kind of stop comparing

250
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: myself and stop looking outwards and just go, no, I'm

251
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: honoring the season of slow. I really need to be here,

252
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: like my intuition is telling me I need to be here.

253
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: And then I'll often do this meditation and so like

254
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: I said, I trust the unit, I'll say I trust

255
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: the universe is guiding me exactly where I need to be,

256
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: and I'll keep reciting that, and then after i will

257
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: get this feeling of calmness and I'm like, yes, no,

258
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: this is exactly what I'm meant to be doing. This

259
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: is this season I'm meant to be in. So kind

260
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: of like clarity, which is something I always seek. And also,

261
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: like I said, if things don't feel aligned at the moment,

262
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: if things like if your intuition is not lining up,

263
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: or you don't feel like you're connected to your intuition,

264
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 1: or if things are really painful and hard, maybe there

265
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: is something that needs to be realigned in your life.

266
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: So start looking where things aren't going well, where you're

267
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: having to really push things instead of flow, and then

268
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: look to areas of your life where things are really flowing.

269
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: So something that I don't know if you guys have noticed,

270
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: but if you have me on Instagram, which is just

271
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: at Georgie Stevenson, I'm really talking a lot about not

272
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: even talking, but you'll see from my Insta stories like

273
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: every single day I'm really seeking joy, which is something

274
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: I never used to do. I don't know, it just

275
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: never occurred to me that I should be enjoying every

276
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: single day. I realize that sounds a bit traumatic, but

277
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. So, for example, I've got this series

278
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: on my interest stories where I really want to do

279
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: a front flip and like land on my feet, and

280
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: so me and Tim will go down to the beach,

281
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: or I'll go down to the beach the body my

282
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: little nephew, and like we'll jump off the sand dunes

283
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: and I'll try and do a ford flip, and I

284
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: usually am like just stacking it and like me and

285
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: Tim are laughing, and then he tries, and the whole

286
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: experience is very like in a child, and we're just

287
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 1: out there. There's nothing, like we're not doing that for

288
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: anything except joy. And so I'm really seeking joy. And

289
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: I realized that that was an area in my life

290
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: that things were really just flowing. Like the days where

291
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 1: I was getting the joy in, they were like really

292
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 1: good days. I was having a really productive day at work.

293
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: And then the days where I wasn't getting joy in

294
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:49,199
Speaker 1: and I wasn't focusing on joy, things were feeling really

295
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: hard and tough. So I kind of was like, Okay,

296
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: I need to start adding in more joy. And it's

297
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: funny because like these downloads that I like to call them,

298
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: they were they would just come to you when you

299
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: are getting more in tune with how you feel. And

300
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: the first step is just being aware. So if as

301
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: I was saying rambling on as I do with these

302
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: solo podcasts, if straight away you thought of something that

303
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: does not feel aligned, maybe have a look of how

304
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 1: you can change that in your life, or you know,

305
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 1: baby steps of how you can start doing less of

306
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: it or outsource it, or have a conversation if it's

307
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: a relationship or anything like that. And then also I

308
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 1: guarantee when I was talking about feeling aligned, something popped

309
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: in your head about what feels really aligned to you

310
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,479
Speaker 1: at the moment in your life, like what is bringing

311
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: you joy, what is feeling in flow? And start doing

312
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 1: more of that. I'm going to finish the podcast, but

313
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: for me, I'm just really honoring the season I'm in.

314
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: I'm not looking around. I'm not looking what others are

315
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: doing or you know, logically thinking what I should do.

316
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: I'm really trusting what feels good and what feels aligned,

317
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: and I'm leaning into that rather than leaning into the

318
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: fear and the self doubt. And it feels good. It

319
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 1: feels really good, and just so I wanted to touch

320
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 1: on it today. But I hope you have a lovely

321
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: day or night whenever you are listening, and I'll chat

322
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:27,560
