0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and welcome to another episode of the Rise and Conquer Podcasts. Today,

0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:08.679
<v Speaker 1>I am coming to you with a solo podcast. It

0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:12.080
<v Speaker 1>is Sunday morning. I've actually just done a bit of

0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:14.840
<v Speaker 1>work in bed this morning with my coffee, which is

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:17.120
<v Speaker 1>something I love doing if I'm working on the weekend.

0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 1>And then I went for a really nice walk on

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the beach and I've actually been listening to this like

0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.840
<v Speaker 1>tape with like mantras, and then I came back and

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:32.399
<v Speaker 1>did a little meditation I'm feeling very calm, very zen,

0:01:33.160 --> 0:01:36.280
<v Speaker 1>and I just had this idea for this podcast, so

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 1>not planned as usual with my solo podcast, but today

0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to chat to you about honoring the season

0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 1>that you were in. So this has come about because

0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm in a season. I don't know if I've actually

0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:54.640
<v Speaker 1>told you guys this yet. I get confused what I have,

0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:59.480
<v Speaker 1>but I'm currently in a season of slow and this

0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 1>is because was previously probably the last six months, I

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:08.400
<v Speaker 1>just had a very hectic schedule with the live podcast

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>events like launching naked harvests and just a couple of

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:18.399
<v Speaker 1>personal things, and it really feels like I've been on

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 1>this like automation, like I have not had time to stop,

0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:25.440
<v Speaker 1>and I've just been like smashing out content, smashing out

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:29.000
<v Speaker 1>things really happy and I love doing that sort of thing.

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 1>But probably a good month ago I really felt this

0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of like inner intuition feeling that I just I

0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 1>needed to slow down. And it very much felt like

0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:46.880
<v Speaker 1>physically like I felt just very exhausted and drained. Mentally,

0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I felt very creatively blocked. Actually I definitely did talk

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.839
<v Speaker 1>about this in my Creating Space podcasts, and so yeah,

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:56.679
<v Speaker 1>I really had this feeling of I just want to

0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:59.080
<v Speaker 1>create space, I just want to go a bit slower.

0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:05.119
<v Speaker 1>And for me that it was a very foreign concept because,

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.320
<v Speaker 1>like you guys know, like I'm a very fast paced person.

0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:12.760
<v Speaker 1>I went straight from high school and to doing my

0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:14.720
<v Speaker 1>law degree, and then while I was doing that, I

0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>was doing all my social media, and then I started

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:18.840
<v Speaker 1>a side business, and then I went full time, and

0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.480
<v Speaker 1>then I started a podcast and then Naked Harvest and

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:24.959
<v Speaker 1>just going one hundred miles per hour all the time,

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:28.240
<v Speaker 1>and I love it. I really kind of feed off

0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 1>that sort of stuff. My personality is like, that's me

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:36.480
<v Speaker 1>and that's amazing. But you can imagine how I feel

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:39.760
<v Speaker 1>when my body and mind is kind of like something

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:41.840
<v Speaker 1>inside me is just like you need to go slow.

0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:45.320
<v Speaker 1>So it took me a while to even realize what

0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:49.040
<v Speaker 1>I needed to do. But now I'm in this season,

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, yes, this is exactly where I need to be, exactly,

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:57.440
<v Speaker 1>this is exactly what I need to do. So it

0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:00.760
<v Speaker 1>feels right for me. But in saying that, I do

0:04:01.000 --> 0:04:04.800
<v Speaker 1>have these feelings that pop up that try and get

0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 1>me out of you know, this good feeling and this

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:12.080
<v Speaker 1>flow we'll call it. So stuff pops up like, you know,

0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 1>if I'm slowing down, does that mean that I'm going

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:19.720
<v Speaker 1>to get taken over by forgotten about? You know, a

0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 1>people are going to take my good ideas or you know,

0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:27.239
<v Speaker 1>just is something going to happen because I'm slowing down?

0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:31.039
<v Speaker 1>And I've realized that this is such a fear based

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:35.360
<v Speaker 1>mentality that I know we all get that really tries

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 1>to take off this like aligned path where we're supposed

0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:43.440
<v Speaker 1>to be. And I know you guys might also be

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.479
<v Speaker 1>in a certain season and you kind of you know

0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:50.120
<v Speaker 1>you should be there, you know what you're doing, but

0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:54.200
<v Speaker 1>this fear based mentality does come up, it rears its head,

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's kind of like it puts self doubt in

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 1>your mind. And so I really want to to talk

0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:05.240
<v Speaker 1>about this and really create a podcast that's about, you know,

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>telling you guys and telling myself really that when you

0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:12.280
<v Speaker 1>are in a season and you know you're supposed to

0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:15.719
<v Speaker 1>be in this season, of really honoring it. So stop

0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:19.480
<v Speaker 1>looking around and feeling like you're missing out or you're

0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:22.839
<v Speaker 1>doing something, you're not doing something you should be doing,

0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:26.560
<v Speaker 1>and just really trust where you need to be, trust

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:30.640
<v Speaker 1>your intuition, and don't live in that fear based mentality.

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:34.159
<v Speaker 1>So for example, I actually have a friend at the

0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:37.800
<v Speaker 1>moment and she is saving, well, she's not saving for

0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:40.880
<v Speaker 1>a house. Her and her partner have already they've already

0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 1>got a mortgage and they're building a house, but they

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 1>currently live in a rental house, so they're having to

0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, pay the mortgage they're building a new house,

0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:53.280
<v Speaker 1>or the expenses plus pay rent. So basically she can't

0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 1>do too much because she's got to save money for that.

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:59.359
<v Speaker 1>And we were discussing how, you know, she does feel

0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:02.360
<v Speaker 1>like she's missing out on things because she's literally having

0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:05.279
<v Speaker 1>to say no, I can't afford that. And she is

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:08.080
<v Speaker 1>a social butterfly, so she's kind of she used to

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:10.919
<v Speaker 1>always doing stuff with us, always coming to the events,

0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:13.000
<v Speaker 1>and you know, kind of doing whatever she wants to

0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 1>do in regards to money. And she kind of said

0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:21.000
<v Speaker 1>that she was feeling like isolated and she was feeling

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 1>like she was missing out. But we had a big

0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 1>discussion about it, and then she said, you know, this

0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 1>is my current season, and instead of looking outwards and

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.240
<v Speaker 1>feeling like I'm missing out and feeling isolated and all

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:35.919
<v Speaker 1>that sort of stuff, I need to trust that the

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>season I'm in, I need to kind of, you know,

0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:39.919
<v Speaker 1>be in this season and do it. And I know

0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:43.640
<v Speaker 1>when I'm out of this season, I'll have money to

0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:45.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, come and do whatever I want to do

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:49.279
<v Speaker 1>or hang with my friends and imagine how great I'm

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:52.480
<v Speaker 1>going to feel because I've been in that previous season

0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:55.839
<v Speaker 1>of saving money. And I feel like we can all

0:06:55.960 --> 0:07:00.000
<v Speaker 1>have seasons. So you know, you might be complete opposite me,

0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 1>and you might be in this season of just getting

0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:07.400
<v Speaker 1>shit done, like Boss girl mode, getting stuff done, and

0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:10.280
<v Speaker 1>you might be going one hundred miles an hour, and

0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.800
<v Speaker 1>then you know you might be feeling like, oh, should

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I be slowing down? You know what am I doing?

0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:19.640
<v Speaker 1>The self doubt comes up. But if you really feel

0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:22.760
<v Speaker 1>aligned in what you're doing and it almost feels easy

0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:25.960
<v Speaker 1>to be in that season of get shit done, like

0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:29.160
<v Speaker 1>that is where you're meant to be. This can also

0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 1>be a season of you know, maybe training and eating.

0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you're in a season of it's just not a

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 1>priority at the moment. You're not training as much as

0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.559
<v Speaker 1>you usually would or eating as healthy as usually would

0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe work as the priority. And I think you need

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:50.000
<v Speaker 1>to realize that things ebb and flow so at the

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:55.360
<v Speaker 1>moment because you're training and eating isn't necessarily a priority,

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:59.520
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't mean it never will be. And if you

0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 1>really need to be in a season where you know,

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 1>work or whatever it is, is a parity, then you

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 1>need to trust in that. Or maybe it's something like

0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:11.360
<v Speaker 1>you aren't seeing your friends as much at the moment

0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:14.080
<v Speaker 1>because you're so busy, and you know, you have these

0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 1>feelings of guilt and you know, will they be there

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:20.920
<v Speaker 1>when I'm finished or anything like that, and maybe this

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.480
<v Speaker 1>just isn't your season to be social. Like I know,

0:08:24.600 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 1>I literally had two years, two full years where I

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 1>just really did not see like even my best friend,

0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 1>I barely even saw her. But then I had this

0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.800
<v Speaker 1>year after where I was like this social butterfly and

0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:42.640
<v Speaker 1>I was like going out, I was seeing everyone. And

0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I think it's about honoring that, because a big thing

0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:52.480
<v Speaker 1>for me is realizing that everything ebbs and flows. And

0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>if you're currently in this season and you're almost like

0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:59.200
<v Speaker 1>pushing against it and you're not honoring the season that

0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:03.520
<v Speaker 1>you're in, it will feel really hard and it will

0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:08.079
<v Speaker 1>not feel good. So for example, like maybe you're really

0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>trying to push something, so you're really trying to push

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 1>an idea or push in a like a relationship and

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:19.439
<v Speaker 1>it's just not working. And so I think you need

0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:23.080
<v Speaker 1>to take a step back and realize in my life,

0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 1>where am I not listening to my intuition, aligning with

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.600
<v Speaker 1>where I meant to be, and honoring the season that

0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm in. I'm definitely that person who previously, you know,

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:37.560
<v Speaker 1>if I wanted something or wanted to do something or

0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:39.920
<v Speaker 1>anything like that, like I would just push and push

0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:43.480
<v Speaker 1>and push. But now I've realized that that just doesn't

0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:47.560
<v Speaker 1>work and things don't have to be so hard. And

0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 1>that was a big thing for me actually with training

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:53.319
<v Speaker 1>and eating, Like I would go through seasons where it

0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:57.440
<v Speaker 1>was just so easy to get like forty five minute

0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 1>work in every single day, to eat healthy, like it

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 1>just was seamless, and then there was seasons where it

0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:08.320
<v Speaker 1>felt so difficult. And I always find like when things

0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:11.120
<v Speaker 1>are so difficult and if they're just not working, I

0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:15.080
<v Speaker 1>would then turn my attention to something else, focus on

0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:18.480
<v Speaker 1>where I needed to align myself as something else in

0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:21.800
<v Speaker 1>my life, and like I said, things will ebb and flow,

0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:25.040
<v Speaker 1>so then that would come back again in the future.

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Before we continue, I'm quickly interrupting this podcast to proudly

0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 1>introduce this week's episode sponsor Naked Harvest Supplements. As you

0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:38.040
<v Speaker 1>may already know, Naked Harvest is a natural supplement company

0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:41.880
<v Speaker 1>I co founded with my brother. So here's the exciting news.

0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 1>We just launched our newest product, range, Thrive plant Protein.

0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 1>Now Thrive is not just your average protein. Not only

0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:54.960
<v Speaker 1>is Frive made from pea protein, making it vegan friendly,

0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:59.520
<v Speaker 1>but it is also packed full of functional superfoods, adaptogens,

0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:03.240
<v Speaker 1>and minut yeuals to promote a thriving, healthy body. Our

0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:06.240
<v Speaker 1>aim was to create a plant based protein supplement, but

0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:09.160
<v Speaker 1>rework the formula so it provides you with so much

0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:12.200
<v Speaker 1>more than your regular run of the mill protein. So

0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:15.680
<v Speaker 1>this means no more needing to add extra ingredients to

0:11:15.720 --> 0:11:19.120
<v Speaker 1>your smoothie or post workout shake. Thrive has it all

0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.840
<v Speaker 1>so of course, as a protein, it builds lean muscle

0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:26.720
<v Speaker 1>and helps repair tissue, but it also provides you with

0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:31.840
<v Speaker 1>extra tummy love, increased energy hormone balance, mental performance, and

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:37.360
<v Speaker 1>immune protection. With ingredients like Siberian gin, syng organic macropowder

0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:42.280
<v Speaker 1>and magnesium, it's like hitting the supplement jackpot. The best part,

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:46.280
<v Speaker 1>we've launched it in not one, but three epic flavors

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:50.720
<v Speaker 1>including peanut butter, brownie, mango cheesecake which is my personal favorite,

0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:54.760

<v Speaker 1>make sure I put all the links in the show notes. Okay,

0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:16.079
<v Speaker 1>now let's get straight back into the episode. Another thing

0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:20.959
<v Speaker 1>that I'm doing differently is previously in my business, I

0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 1>was kind of like logical, So if I was deciding

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:28.960
<v Speaker 1>on a partnership or a next step or a new project,

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I would ask myself, you know, to suit my business,

0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 1>is it a good opportunity. Rather, now I'm getting really

0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:40.240
<v Speaker 1>clear and asking myself does it excite me? And does

0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:43.280
<v Speaker 1>it spark joy? Because I really feel like I'm in

0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:47.600
<v Speaker 1>the season where that's my end goal, Like that's what

0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:51.760
<v Speaker 1>I want the result to be. So they're the questions

0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:55.320
<v Speaker 1>I want to ask myself. So maybe things feel really

0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:58.960
<v Speaker 1>difficult and really hard at the moment because you're not

0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:05.120
<v Speaker 1>aligning with your true, authentic and result, like maybe you

0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:08.960
<v Speaker 1>need to start asking yourself different questions of what you

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:12.680
<v Speaker 1>really want. I know I keep saying this, but I

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:16.800
<v Speaker 1>really love this concept of everything ebbs and flows. So

0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:20.319
<v Speaker 1>if you're in a season of slow maybe you have

0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:25.160
<v Speaker 1>creativity blocks, trust that soon or somewhere in the future

0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:28.160
<v Speaker 1>that it's going to come back. So if there's anything

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:31.480
<v Speaker 1>lacking in your life now, don't live in the fear

0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:35.520
<v Speaker 1>mentality of you're never going to get it. Just have

0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:38.720
<v Speaker 1>faith and trust that you know it's not happening at

0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:41.160
<v Speaker 1>the moment. That's all good. I'm going to focus on

0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:43.760
<v Speaker 1>what needs to be more aligned in my life and

0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:47.040
<v Speaker 1>just kind of I call it surrendering. And this is

0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:50.560
<v Speaker 1>something that has been quite hard for me because I

0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:54.200
<v Speaker 1>am someone who I'm just such a control freak, Like

0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:57.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm a tipaid control freak. So I've had to learn

0:13:57.920 --> 0:14:02.559
<v Speaker 1>this process of really surrendering the outcome, surrendering and just

0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:05.480
<v Speaker 1>going Okay, what do I need to do, like guide

0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:09.120
<v Speaker 1>me universe. And it's actually funny because I don't talk

0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 1>about this too much, but I love doing meditation at

0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:15.920
<v Speaker 1>the moment and I have this really cool mantra that

0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I say, so for example, I'll often do a meditation

0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:23.560
<v Speaker 1>where I sit down and I recite a mantra. I

0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:26.200
<v Speaker 1>put on some really nice like meditation music, and I

0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:29.360
<v Speaker 1>set my alarm for five or ten minutes and I

0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:34.600
<v Speaker 1>get my breath really long and you know, relaxing, and

0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:39.000
<v Speaker 1>then I just recite this mantra for the whole time,

0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:42.720
<v Speaker 1>and I say, I trust the universe is guiding me

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 1>exactly where I need to be. And so I'll often

0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:50.120
<v Speaker 1>do this if you know those kind of the fear

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 1>mentality is popping up, if the self doubt is popping up.

0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:56.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about you guys, but so for example,

0:14:56.880 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm in this season of slow, and then I'll go

0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:02.920
<v Speaker 1>on Instagram and I'll see that, you know, some girl

0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:06.800
<v Speaker 1>is doing this big new project and it seems really exciting,

0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:08.600
<v Speaker 1>and you know, this thought pops up and I'm like,

0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:11.160
<v Speaker 1>maybe I need to do a new project or start

0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>this or do that. And then I've got to kind

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:17.240
<v Speaker 1>of push it down and stop kind of stop comparing

0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:21.040
<v Speaker 1>myself and stop looking outwards and just go, no, I'm

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.800
<v Speaker 1>honoring the season of slow. I really need to be here,

0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:26.640
<v Speaker 1>like my intuition is telling me I need to be here.

0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:30.600
<v Speaker 1>And then I'll often do this meditation and so like

0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I said, I trust the unit, I'll say I trust

0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 1>the universe is guiding me exactly where I need to be,

0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:40.760
<v Speaker 1>and I'll keep reciting that, and then after i will

0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:45.160
<v Speaker 1>get this feeling of calmness and I'm like, yes, no,

0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:47.920
<v Speaker 1>this is exactly what I'm meant to be doing. This

0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>is this season I'm meant to be in. So kind

0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:54.960
<v Speaker 1>of like clarity, which is something I always seek. And also,

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:59.240
<v Speaker 1>like I said, if things don't feel aligned at the moment,

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:02.240
<v Speaker 1>if things like if your intuition is not lining up,

0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:05.280
<v Speaker 1>or you don't feel like you're connected to your intuition,

0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:09.640
<v Speaker 1>or if things are really painful and hard, maybe there

0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:13.560
<v Speaker 1>is something that needs to be realigned in your life.

0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:17.800
<v Speaker 1>So start looking where things aren't going well, where you're

0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:21.480
<v Speaker 1>having to really push things instead of flow, and then

0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:24.960
<v Speaker 1>look to areas of your life where things are really flowing.

0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:28.560
<v Speaker 1>So something that I don't know if you guys have noticed,

0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:30.880
<v Speaker 1>but if you have me on Instagram, which is just

0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:35.080
<v Speaker 1>at Georgie Stevenson, I'm really talking a lot about not

0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:38.400
<v Speaker 1>even talking, but you'll see from my Insta stories like

0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:42.880
<v Speaker 1>every single day I'm really seeking joy, which is something

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:45.680
<v Speaker 1>I never used to do. I don't know, it just

0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:48.480
<v Speaker 1>never occurred to me that I should be enjoying every

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:51.840
<v Speaker 1>single day. I realize that sounds a bit traumatic, but

0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. So, for example, I've got this series

0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:57.560
<v Speaker 1>on my interest stories where I really want to do

0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:00.600
<v Speaker 1>a front flip and like land on my feet, and

0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:02.680
<v Speaker 1>so me and Tim will go down to the beach,

0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:04.879
<v Speaker 1>or I'll go down to the beach the body my

0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:08.560
<v Speaker 1>little nephew, and like we'll jump off the sand dunes

0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:10.720
<v Speaker 1>and I'll try and do a ford flip, and I

0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:13.919
<v Speaker 1>usually am like just stacking it and like me and

0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:17.119
<v Speaker 1>Tim are laughing, and then he tries, and the whole

0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:20.879
<v Speaker 1>experience is very like in a child, and we're just

0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:24.399
<v Speaker 1>out there. There's nothing, like we're not doing that for

0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:30.480
<v Speaker 1>anything except joy. And so I'm really seeking joy. And

0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I realized that that was an area in my life

0:17:34.400 --> 0:17:37.080
<v Speaker 1>that things were really just flowing. Like the days where

0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:39.960
<v Speaker 1>I was getting the joy in, they were like really

0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:42.879
<v Speaker 1>good days. I was having a really productive day at work.

0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:45.320
<v Speaker 1>And then the days where I wasn't getting joy in

0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:49.199
<v Speaker 1>and I wasn't focusing on joy, things were feeling really

0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:52.720
<v Speaker 1>hard and tough. So I kind of was like, Okay,

0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:56.320
<v Speaker 1>I need to start adding in more joy. And it's

0:17:56.320 --> 0:17:59.560
<v Speaker 1>funny because like these downloads that I like to call them,

0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:02.520
<v Speaker 1>they were they would just come to you when you

0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:06.520
<v Speaker 1>are getting more in tune with how you feel. And

0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:11.040
<v Speaker 1>the first step is just being aware. So if as

0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I was saying rambling on as I do with these

0:18:13.680 --> 0:18:17.760
<v Speaker 1>solo podcasts, if straight away you thought of something that

0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:22.000
<v Speaker 1>does not feel aligned, maybe have a look of how

0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:24.199
<v Speaker 1>you can change that in your life, or you know,

0:18:24.320 --> 0:18:27.199
<v Speaker 1>baby steps of how you can start doing less of

0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:31.040
<v Speaker 1>it or outsource it, or have a conversation if it's

0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:34.359
<v Speaker 1>a relationship or anything like that. And then also I

0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:38.679
<v Speaker 1>guarantee when I was talking about feeling aligned, something popped

0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:42.040
<v Speaker 1>in your head about what feels really aligned to you

0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:44.479
<v Speaker 1>at the moment in your life, like what is bringing

0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:48.200
<v Speaker 1>you joy, what is feeling in flow? And start doing

0:18:48.200 --> 0:18:51.679
<v Speaker 1>more of that. I'm going to finish the podcast, but

0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:54.639
<v Speaker 1>for me, I'm just really honoring the season I'm in.

0:18:55.119 --> 0:18:58.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not looking around. I'm not looking what others are

0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:02.000
<v Speaker 1>doing or you know, logically thinking what I should do.

0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm really trusting what feels good and what feels aligned,

0:19:06.560 --> 0:19:10.520
<v Speaker 1>and I'm leaning into that rather than leaning into the

0:19:10.560 --> 0:19:14.280
<v Speaker 1>fear and the self doubt. And it feels good. It

0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:16.920
<v Speaker 1>feels really good, and just so I wanted to touch

0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:19.399
<v Speaker 1>on it today. But I hope you have a lovely

0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:22.520
<v Speaker 1>day or night whenever you are listening, and I'll chat

0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:27.560
