I actually 38 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 2: just went free diving with sharks this morning, and I've 39 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: done it one other time before, but doing it today, 40 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 2: I actually got to touch them and they were in 41 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 2: a pack of ten nine foot bull sharks, tiger sharks, 42 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 2: all that kind of thing, And it was the galst experience. 43 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 2: And it's definitely a fear of mine being in the 44 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: deep ocean, and especially I think it's a fear of 45 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: everyone's being with the sharks. So that's my rise and 46 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: conquer for the week. It was awesome. 47 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 1: Wow, think anyone can talk that. 48 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: Like I said, I'm really glad you asked me today. 49 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's so exciting. I definitely have a 50 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: big fear of sharks, but it is something I would 51 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: love to do. So was that just something fun you 52 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: wanted to do or how did that come about? 53 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? So, living in Florida, they actually do a lot 54 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,119 Speaker 2: of tours out to see the sharks, and about two 55 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: years ago my ex boyfriend took me and we just 56 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 2: went with this company and we saw them when we 57 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 2: thought it was really cool and they actually reached out 58 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: to me because they want to raise more awareness around 59 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: the fact that sharks are not out to kill people. Obviously, 60 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 2: we need to respect them for the predators that they are, 61 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: but once you spend time with them, you really realize 62 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: that they're not trying to kill you. You're not their breakfast. 63 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: I was right next to them today and I experienced 64 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 2: that firsthand. But it's such a fear that so many 65 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 2: people have, and it's just a little bit of a 66 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: misconception that they're trying to raise some awareness about and 67 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: do it in a really, really fun way. So that 68 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 2: was what that was about. 69 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's amazing. Well, epic answer to that one. 70 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: Thank you. 71 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: So I am so excited to have you on the 72 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: show today because girl, you have a very impressive resume. 73 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: Must they say, you're a seven figure oussie entrepreneur. You're beautiful, smart, successful, 74 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: You've gone viral Internet, your companies had been featured in 75 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: epic publications, and now you teach people across the globe 76 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 1: how to harness both their health and their wealth. So 77 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: basically my next quypt is how did this all start? 78 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 2: Well, thank you so much firstly, and basically it's kind 79 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 2: of a long story, but I'll do my best to 80 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: condense it down. Whenever I was in high school, going 81 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: through school, I always knew that I wanted a different life. 82 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: I always knew that I didn't want to settle for 83 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: the average. Working for forty fifty years of my life 84 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 2: and then retiring at sixty sixty five and kind of 85 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: just getting by. I always knew that wasn't really from me, 86 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: but I didn't really know any ways. I didn't know 87 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 2: any alternatives to it, because, like most I was pretty 88 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,559 Speaker 2: conditioned that that was the path I had to follow. 89 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: In I did the prescribed thing. I went to college, 90 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 2: I was studying finance. I got a degree. Well I 91 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 2: didn't finish the degree, but I was going to get 92 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 2: a degree, and I was working at a bank in 93 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: this job that everyone was kind of telling me, this 94 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 2: is it, and you might have experienced the same thing 95 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 2: when you were working in law. That people kind of 96 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: just assumed that because you're in a certain industry, you've 97 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: made it and life's great for you. But it didn't 98 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: feel great, and that was something that I couldn't shake. 99 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 2: So I relentlessly searched for alternatives to that, and in 100 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 2: that process it wasn't a smooth journey. I kind of 101 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 2: searched a lot and didn't really find a whole lot 102 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: of answers until I met a good friend of mine 103 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: that I went to high school with and got to 104 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: know him on a deeper level, and he introduced me 105 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 2: to the world of eBay. And that's kind of how 106 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: I got started. I sold digital products on eBay and 107 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 2: saw that there were alternatives to just exchanging my time 108 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: for money, and that kind of opened my eyes to 109 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 2: a different level of income and kind of having a 110 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 2: side hustle. That was my first real little thing that 111 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 2: I had going on, and it turned into quite a 112 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 2: significant thing that then I had some capital, and he 113 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 2: taught me how to invest in trade that money. So 114 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 2: from there we saw that we were having these results, 115 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 2: and ultimately it led us to the point where I 116 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: was able to quit my job at the bank, and 117 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 2: he was also getting an electricians apprenticeship and he was 118 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 2: able to not actually enter the workforce at all. So 119 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 2: we knew that we were having these results with what 120 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 2: we were doing, but you know, initially, we weren't thinking 121 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 2: of ever teaching it, and we had a lot of 122 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 2: different people approaching us and kind of asking us what 123 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 2: we were doing naturally, and kind of ended up reluctantly 124 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 2: at first running these little tutorials in our home office 125 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 2: and teaching people what we do and teaching them about 126 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 2: trading and teaching them to change their mindsets about money 127 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 2: and just kind of spreading awareness about the alternatives out there, 128 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 2: and through that, we kind of figured that that was 129 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: a business. You know, we had so much interest and 130 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 2: so much demand for it, and people were getting results 131 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 2: and often they were better than ours, and we were 132 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 2: teaching people to become better than we were. So from 133 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 2: there we created Infinite Prosperity, which was just a company 134 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: that was basically everything in our minds, all of our lessons. 135 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: We compiled them into an online course and that was 136 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 2: seven years ago now and we've got eight thousand students 137 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 2: and we've changed a lot of lives through that, and 138 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: it kind of just grew from there. 139 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: Wow. 140 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, lots of things happened in between, but the condensed version, 141 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: that's it. 142 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: I love that because I feel like, looking back, I 143 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: don't think you would have been able to even comprehend 144 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: where you are now. Like it's not like you could 145 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: have seen where this all would have went, but you 146 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: kind of just went with the flow and kept searching 147 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: and then fell into this amazing thing. 148 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 2: Absolutely. I always kind of had the belief in myself, 149 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 2: and I think that's so important that we believe in 150 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: our dreams. A lot of people shut down their dreams 151 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 2: because they don't know the way and just because you 152 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 2: don't know the way yet doesn't mean that there isn't 153 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: a way. You just have to firstly start by believing 154 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: that that's what you want to do, and that there 155 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: will be a way, and that you are committed to 156 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 2: finding it. And I didn't have all the pieces of 157 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: the puzzle, but they fell into place. That's the one 158 00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,679 Speaker 2: thing that I will say, I batched myself one hundred 159 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: percenty even if maybe at times I shouldn't, I shouldn't have, 160 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: but I always believed that I would make it there. 161 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 2: But yes, looking back, it's been a crazy journey, that's 162 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 2: for sure. 163 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: I absolutely love that just having that belief in yourself, 164 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: Like I could not agree more. So I have to ask, 165 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: I guess because you just seem like such a normal girl, 166 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: like I have you on social media and I don't 167 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: know for me, like I just want to ask, what 168 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: does it take to become a seven figure entrepreneur like yourself? 169 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: To me, that is crazy, that's mind blowing. 170 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 2: I get asked that question so much. And I think 171 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: that if there were just one thing, someone would be 172 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 2: very rich selling the one thing. And I think we'd 173 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 2: all be doing the one thing. So if I had 174 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 2: to boil it down to one thing. I think it 175 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 2: would be a combination kind of a mindset, a mindset 176 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: that's really conducive to achieving whatever you want to achieve, 177 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 2: but also taking consistent action every single day to get there. 178 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 2: And like I said, you don't have to have the 179 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 2: path all planned out from the jump. You just need 180 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 2: to take little actions in the direction of your goals 181 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 2: every sing and ultimately they add up to big results. 182 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 2: And you're working for yourself now. And I'm sure you've 183 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 2: seen that as well, is that you don't always know 184 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 2: the path from the very beginning, but you just kind 185 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 2: of work on it every single day and you take 186 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 2: little steps and over time they add up into really 187 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 2: really big results. 188 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: Like you do what you can with what you have 189 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: at the moment and just take that aligned to action. 190 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, And I think a lot of people are 191 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 2: kind of interested in their goals, but they're not really 192 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: committed to them. And that's a big thing for me, 193 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: is that commitment means doing it even when it's not 194 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 2: easier and not convenient, and not letting the challenges that 195 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 2: we have along the way discourage us, because no matter 196 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 2: what we're doing, there's always going to be challenges. There's 197 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 2: always going to be hiccups, but we have to really 198 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 2: be committed to push through them. And ultimately, when you're 199 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: doing something you love, you're naturally going to be committed 200 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 2: to overcome those things. So kind of a lot of 201 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 2: answers in that question because it's a loaded one, but yeah, 202 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 2: a couple of things need to come together, but it's 203 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 2: absolutely possible once you back yourself. I'd say that's the 204 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 2: biggest thing. You have to believe that you can. 205 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: I love that and we're totally going to get back 206 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: into that because, like you said, so much uh huh. 207 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: But I want to talk to you about your money 208 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: mindset because personally, I had this kind of big transformation, 209 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: maybe only a year and a half ago, where I 210 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: kind of had to completely reformulate my money mindset because 211 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: I didn't realize but now looking back, it really held 212 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: me back. So I want to shure you. Do you 213 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 1: agree that money making comes a lot from your mindset? 214 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: And have you always had the same mindset or do 215 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: you have any tools for the audience or steps that 216 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: you sort of had to take to change your mindset 217 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 1: around money? 218 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 2: For sure? So absolutely I agree that everything starts and 219 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 2: ends in the mind. I think that if our mind 220 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 2: isn't right, no matter how many tools or how many 221 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 2: tangible actions we take, we're not really going to get there. 222 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 2: Our mind needs to be supporting us in everything that 223 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: we're doing. So the emotions that you feel cause the 224 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 2: beliefs which cause action or inaction, and that's ultimately what 225 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 2: gets us those results. So I'm a huge believer in 226 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 2: the law of attraction. I don't know if that's something 227 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 2: that you kind of uncovered that year and a little 228 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 2: bit ago. Whenever you change your mindset as well, so 229 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 2: you've experienced its effects as well. I definitely did, And 230 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: a lot of people discount it because they think it's 231 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: some kind of airy, fairy spiritual stuff, but when you 232 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: actually look into it, it's science and boil down. Everything 233 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: is energy and we're all just masses of particles vibrating 234 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 2: at different frequencies. You know, we can't necessarily see it, 235 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: but just like we can't see gravity, we still know 236 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 2: that it exists. So once we understand that we're kind 237 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 2: of these masses of energies vibrating at different frequencies, we 238 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 2: also have to understand that like attracts like, so whatever 239 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 2: frequency we're vibrating at is what we're going to attract 240 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 2: more of. And I'm sure you've experienced this whenever you're 241 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 2: having a rough day and nothing seems to go right, 242 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 2: or whenever everything just seems to flow and you have 243 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 2: this perfect sequence of events where things just kind of 244 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 2: keep coming to you. And whether or not we realize it, 245 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 2: everyone is experiencing the law of attraction. It's always working. 246 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 2: It's just whether or not we want to kind of 247 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 2: tap into that and use it to our advantage. 248 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: I could not agree more definitely. One of the changes 249 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: that I had to make was a lot to do 250 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: with realizing that. And like you said, I kind of 251 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: grew up in a background where that sort of stuff 252 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: was airy fairy, So it was a lot of sort 253 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: of repositioning and realizing that, no, I could actually really 254 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: use this to my advantage sort of thing. 255 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 2: Absolutely, our environment plays such a huge role, and especially 256 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: if you're around people or friends that kind of think 257 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 2: you're crazy for thinking this kind of way, then it's 258 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: obviously going to affect whether or not we really take 259 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 2: it seriously or not. And for me, that was a 260 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: big thing, and I think for most people it is 261 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 2: because it's not common knowledge, and we're not taught this 262 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: kind of thing in school, even though I think it's 263 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 2: one of the most important things that we should be learning, 264 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: is how to deal with our thoughts and emotions and feelings, 265 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 2: but also how to manage money and how to really 266 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 2: have a mindset that allows us to achieve whatever we 267 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 2: want to achieve. So I always knew that I wanted 268 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 2: to be successful, but it wasn't really until I started 269 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 2: reading and going to seminars that I realized how many 270 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 2: things that I had to unlearn. And I'm sure you 271 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 2: learned this as well, is that you don't realize how 272 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 2: much stuff is really clogging your mind up until you 273 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: have to kind of go in and unlearn some of it. 274 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: And you see this. When we're growing up, we're taking 275 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 2: everything around us, our parents' thoughts and views on money, 276 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: our friends, the media that we're exposed to, and unfortunately, 277 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 2: not many of us are conditioned for success because we 278 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 2: often hear things like money doesn't grow on trees and 279 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 2: things like that. So we actually have to unlearn a 280 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 2: lot of that. And it's funny because every so long, 281 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 2: you said, do I still have the same mindset that 282 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 2: I had back in the day, and absolutely not every 283 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 2: so long. I don't know if this happens to you, 284 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 2: but on Facebook, some of the you posted this ten 285 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 2: years ago, things will come up, and it's really funny 286 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 2: because I kind of look at that and face parm 287 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 2: and I'm like, wow, I am a completely different person now. 288 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, exactly the same thing happens to me. It's crazy. 289 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,599 Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, it's funny looking back. But one of the 290 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: best pieces of advice that I can give to people 291 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 2: is be really really aware of what you're consuming and 292 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 2: what's happening in your environment, what's around you, and get 293 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 2: around people who have achieved what you want to achieve 294 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: and study the way that they think. One of the 295 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: best ways that we can do this nowadays is books, 296 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 2: seminars or podcasts and things like this. You know, once 297 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 2: you're filling your mind with thoughts and feelings and kind 298 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 2: of pieces and tools from people who are actually doing 299 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 2: what you want to do, that's who you need to 300 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 2: be listening to, and that's what you need to be 301 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 2: conditioning your mind with rather than the mindless stuff that 302 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: you know a lot of us are exposed to day 303 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: to day. 304 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: One hundred percent, And I love what you said about 305 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: unlearning a lot of things that you thought were set 306 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: and soon that's I don't know if you would you 307 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: call them like limiting beliefs, Like I definitely get over 308 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: a lot of these things that I thought. You know, 309 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: when people say I guess like you think, it's almost 310 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: like genetics because you were in a certain environment and 311 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: that's how your parents think and your siblings think. You 312 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: just think, oh no, I can't be anything else sort 313 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: of think. But it's almost unlearning a lot of the 314 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: things that you thought were certain, and it's always like 315 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: retrain the brain. 316 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it literally is. And I'm sure that you've come 317 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 2: across this in your studies as well. Is the financial 318 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 2: thermostat that we all have? 319 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: Have you heard of that tell me more so? 320 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 2: Basically, it's a concept that an author named T. HARV Ecker. 321 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 2: I was exposed to him when I was pretty young, 322 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 2: and it was one of the first pieces of information 323 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 2: that kind of lit my brain up and I was like, hmm, 324 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: this has something to it. And basically he says that 325 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 2: we all have a financial thermostat in our minds, and 326 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: just like we have a thermostat on our air conditioning, 327 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 2: it's kind of set to a certain point where we 328 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 2: feel comfortable. So it might be that while some people 329 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 2: feel comfortable with a thousand dollars in their bank account, 330 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 2: and anything below that, you can know you kind of 331 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: get that feeling like, ooh, you know, I need to 332 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 2: really tighten some things up here. I don't really feel 333 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 2: comfortable looking at my internet banking with this amount of 334 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 2: money in there. We all have felt that whatever level 335 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 2: we're at, we all have this kind of programmed number 336 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 2: in our minds where we feel comfortable, and if it 337 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: drops below that, we will hustle, or we will do 338 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 2: whatever we need to do, or maybe we'll just sit 339 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 2: with the discomfort. But it's definitely a feeling that we 340 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 2: recognize that weere I'm comfortable with and for a lot 341 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 2: of us, I think we kind of sit with that 342 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 2: rather than really doing something about that. But once we 343 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 2: learn to continually raise our thermostat because obviously as we're 344 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 2: learning and growing and achieving more things, naturally that will 345 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 2: translate into monetary gain and we need to continually raise that. 346 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 2: Otherwise it's quite common as well that people they do 347 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 2: quite well and then they kind of stagnate because they're 348 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 2: comfortable there. And while I'm not saying that chasing money 349 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 2: is you know, the end goal or the dream or 350 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 2: anything like that, because I actually have quite a different 351 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 2: message to share. I do think that it's important that 352 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: we continually kind of check where that thermostat is at 353 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 2: and see if that's really in line with our goals. 354 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god, I love that. I'm going to 355 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: look into that. That's awesome. Thank you for sharing, of course. Okay, 356 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: so I think you know this, but like a little 357 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: backstory on me is, like you said, I was in 358 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: law and then I sort of switched it up. I 359 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: started my own business. That's what I've been doing for 360 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: the last year or so. But a main factor with me, 361 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: I initially chose a law as a career path because, 362 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: first of all, I knew it would make me money. 363 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: I knew I would be able to provide for my family, 364 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: and I very much pushed away my creative side and 365 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 1: my passions because I thought, that's not what you're meant 366 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,959 Speaker 1: to do. And so I know a lot of younger 367 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: people are sort of in that same position, and I 368 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 1: wanted to just get your view on did you make 369 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: your career choice with money in mind or what's your 370 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: advice to people who make their biggest life decisions with 371 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: money as always their top priority on the list for sure. 372 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, such a good one because so many people face 373 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 2: this question, and especially when we're right out of high 374 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: school and we really don't even know ourselves or what 375 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 2: we want. We're just kind of asked this big life 376 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: question of what do you want to do with your life? 377 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 2: And most people know that they want a successful life, 378 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 2: or they want some freedom or some resources, and so 379 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 2: naturally they do what you did, and they do what 380 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 2: I did. You know, I studied finance and I worked 381 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 2: at a bank, thinking that that was what I should do, 382 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 2: and that's what ultimately allow me to live the life 383 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 2: that I wanted. So I did make that decision initially 384 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 2: that way, but moving into working for myself, I would 385 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: say yes, but more so seeing money as a resource 386 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: for freedom rather than a superficial gain. So obviously we 387 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 2: need money in life to be able to fully enjoy 388 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 2: it and to have the freedom to use our time 389 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 2: the way that we'd like to and purchase the experiences 390 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 2: that we'd like to win things like that. But it's 391 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 2: not so much for a digit in the bank account. 392 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 2: It's purely for the freedom aspect of it. I'm sure 393 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 2: now working for yourself, you'd agree too that you probably 394 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 2: work just as hard, if not harder, than when you 395 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 2: studied law or when you were working in law. But 396 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 2: it doesn't feel so much like work whenever you're working 397 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 2: for yourself, because it's something that you actually care about 398 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 2: and that you're passionate about. So that was kind of 399 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: my motive. 400 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: Oh my god, because sorry, I'm just going to pop 401 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: in here because it's so funny. I definitely work a 402 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: lot harder, and I work longer hours, but so effortless, 403 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 1: and I just have When I think back to when 404 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: I worked in the LA law firm, I just remember 405 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: being quite miserable and just having re for like working 406 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: over the time that I was getting paid all this 407 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: sort of stuff. But now that I work for myself, 408 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: I honestly work so much harder, I work longer hours, 409 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: but I feel so much happier, so much more refreshed, 410 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: even though I you know, working longer. It's crazy, but 411 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: I realized it doing something that I'm passionate. 412 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 2: About, absolutely, And that's the key. You know, It's not 413 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 2: about escaping work. You know, work is something that we've 414 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 2: actually feel good about doing, and a lot of people 415 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 2: just have this stigma around going to work because it's 416 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 2: a majority of people are going to a place that 417 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: they don't enjoy work. And while I think working for 418 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 2: ourselves is wonderful and so many people experience all the 419 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 2: benefits of that, I don't think it's for everyone. So 420 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 2: I really advocate just going to work on something that 421 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: you're passionate about every single day, and if that's working 422 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,919 Speaker 2: for yourself, that's awesome. But at the end of the day, 423 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 2: we shouldn't wake up hating what our days are going 424 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 2: to be like, because we don't know how many we 425 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 2: have and it's so im important to really use them 426 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 2: doing something that we love. And it's not going to 427 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 2: be every single day because whatever we're doing there's going 428 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 2: to be challenge. But at the end of it, we 429 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 2: need to feel that we're doing something that is fulfilling. 430 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 2: So if that's working for yourself, then I think that's great. 431 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 2: But if it's in a job, I think that's awesome too. 432 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 2: We just need to find and believe that we can 433 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: have a job that allows us to feel that level 434 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 2: of fulfillment every single day. 435 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. I love that I definitely agree when 436 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: you sort of don't do something because you think society 437 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: thinks you should, or you know, for a certain amount 438 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: of money, but you do it because you generally love 439 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: it and you feel like you have purpose and you 440 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: feel like you have fulfillment. I don't know, I feel 441 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: like the other things seem to fall into place for sure. 442 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 2: And I think everything that we are truly passionate about, 443 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 2: if we're creative enough, we can monetize that to a 444 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 2: really high level, if we're creative enough, and if we 445 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 2: give it enough time and commitment and that kind of thing. 446 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 2: But ultimately, it has to start with passion because that's 447 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,479 Speaker 2: what that's what we get up for, you know, Like, 448 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 2: what are we even here for if not waking up 449 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 2: excited about the day ahead? And like I said, it's 450 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 2: not going to be every single day, because that's a fantasy. 451 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 2: You know. Obviously, we have good and bad times, and 452 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 2: the contrast is what makes life amazing actually, because if 453 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 2: we didn't know any bad days, we wouldn't know what 454 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 2: the good days even feel like because we wouldn't have 455 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: a contrast effect. But we need to make sure that 456 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 2: majority of our days were excited and enthused about what 457 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 2: we're going to be filling them with. 458 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: Yes, Oh my god, I love that. I could not 459 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: agree more. Okay, so let's switch gears a little bit, 460 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: and I want to chat more about the health side 461 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: of things, because I've seen a lot of your stuff 462 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: and I love the way that you think about everything, 463 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: and so I know that you suffered a really big 464 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: loss in your life which caused you to switch gears 465 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: and kind of get more into the health side of things. 466 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: Can you share a little bit of insight about what 467 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: caused you to make that big mindset shift. 468 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: So if anyone had been following me since I've been 469 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 2: really active on social media, which is probably a good 470 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 2: ten years or so now, they've kind of been involved 471 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 2: in this whole journey and kind of seen it come along. 472 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 2: But for those who don't know, I lost my partner 473 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 2: Rob at twenty four years old to cancer and doctors 474 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 2: couldn't explain it. But I believe in cause and effect 475 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 2: and I knew there had to be a reason. So 476 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 2: I researched tirelessly for about four years and continue to 477 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 2: learn to this day still about the true meaning of health. 478 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 2: And to me, it was just a clear indication that 479 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 2: Western diet and medicine don't end on I guess, solving 480 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 2: out issues at this moment in time, and the rates 481 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 2: of disease are on the rise, and it just didn't 482 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 2: sit well with me that there was no answer, and 483 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 2: doctors were literally baffled by the fact that this happened. 484 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 2: And it's not just him. There are so many people now, 485 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 2: so many young people, so many people that are passing 486 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 2: before their time, and society is quite sick and quite unhealthy, 487 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 2: and it was just something that we tend to ignore, 488 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 2: you know, we just kind of see these people getting 489 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,880 Speaker 2: sick around us, and it's just kind of a sad story. 490 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 2: But for me, because it affected me on such a 491 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 2: personal level, I was intrigued to look into it further 492 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 2: and basically what I learned changed my life and a 493 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 2: lot of people's lives around me forever. And I became 494 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 2: really really inspired to share more of that just because 495 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 2: it became such a big part of my journey, and 496 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 2: people following it along the way were obviously kind of 497 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 2: seeing the transition that I went through myself and seeing 498 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 2: kind of my content change and seeing what I was 499 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: passionate about change. So now that's kind of shifted into 500 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 2: what I do for work a little bit as well. 501 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow, First of all, I'm so sorry for your loss. 502 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 2: Thank you. No, I'm at a place where I'm at 503 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: peace with it now, and that's kind of like a 504 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 2: whole other journey that I've been on. But yeah, ultimately, 505 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 2: everything happens for a reason, and it actually led me 506 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 2: to all of this information, which I'm really really grateful 507 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 2: to have. 508 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: I was just about to say that, which is amazing. 509 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: So then you use this massive loss in your life 510 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 1: and this massive life change, like you said, you did 511 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: all the research and so you used your new knowledge 512 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: to help you launch your new program, which is called 513 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: Infinite Vitality Program. And so I'm such a big believer 514 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: in health and mindset and feeling connected to your body, 515 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: which I know you are too, So it just makes 516 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: you so excited to chat more about this. So I've 517 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: just got some questions about that. And so the first 518 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: question I wanted to ask you is how our daily 519 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: habits and beliefs intertwined, Like how do they affect one another? 520 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 2: So that's kind of another massive question. It's a pretty 521 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: lead of question, but basically, no, it's good. It's good. 522 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 2: I love talking about this stuff, but to kind of 523 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 2: make it easy to digest in this podcast anyway, I 524 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 2: guess i'd start me saying that we kind of ignore 525 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 2: the little signs that our body gives us day to 526 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 2: day and the symptoms that it provides us. It's pretty 527 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 2: much in our culture nowadays to you know, we get 528 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 2: a rash, or we feel lethargic, or we might have 529 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 2: bad skin or whatever it might be. The little symptoms 530 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 2: that our body gives us that something's off, we tend 531 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 2: to ignore it and we just mask it with a 532 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 2: pill or with a pharmaceutical. And basically we're in this 533 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 2: culture of telling our bodies to just shut up and 534 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 2: get on with it, because you know, we're in this 535 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 2: society of continually working, got to produce results, got to 536 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 2: keep going, and in the process of doing all of that, 537 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 2: you know, it might be okay once or twice. But 538 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 2: whenever we continue to ignore the little signs that our 539 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 2: body is really giving us, that's when it manifests into 540 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 2: a bigger problem, something like disease. And I think that's 541 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 2: exactly what happened with my partner as well. And it's 542 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 2: not just physical symptoms either. I think health isn't just 543 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 2: working out and eating well. And I know this is 544 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 2: something you believe too, just from following all of your content. 545 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 2: But it's our thoughts, it's our motions, it's our relationships, 546 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: it's our environment, our food, our sleep, purpose and fitness 547 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 2: as well. You know, there's so much that comes under 548 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: the banner of health, and really society has kind of 549 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 2: just boiled it down into go to the gym, eat 550 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 2: a salad. You know, that's what a lot of people 551 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 2: think is the definition of health. And unfortunately that's very 552 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 2: limited definition of it. And without a true understanding of 553 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 2: our bodies and how they really work, we kind of 554 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 2: have false beliefs about what's going on, or we really 555 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 2: don't try to understand what's going on too much. So 556 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 2: obviously that dictates our habits. And if we have beliefs 557 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 2: that are more informed, then we can try to understand 558 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 2: our bodies, take better actions, create a daily routine that 559 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 2: is more conducive to our health. Whereas if we're kind 560 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 2: of stuck in the society's model of just continuing on 561 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: with things and just telling our body to be quiet 562 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 2: because we've got things to do, obviously that's going to 563 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 2: have a different result. So there's so many things that 564 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 2: go into it, But basically, I just want to break 565 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 2: some of the misconceptions that are out there and some 566 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 2: of the misinformation about health and really educate people how 567 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 2: to take care of their bodies in a more holistic 568 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 2: way rather than just kind of getting on with things. 569 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 2: And our bodies are our most valuable possession at the 570 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 2: end of the day, and we really don't have much 571 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 2: knowledge about them at all. We trust that to doctors, 572 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 2: or we trust that to someone outside of ourselves, and 573 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 2: I think that that is something that we can all 574 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 2: benefit from learning about, is you know, how to understand 575 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 2: our bodies and how to optimize them to the point 576 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 2: that we feel and look amazing, because that's what everyone 577 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 2: wants at the end of the day, and it's achievable 578 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 2: if we just learn a little bit more and shift 579 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 2: the beliefs a little bit, which ultimately will help shift 580 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 2: what we're doing in the day and create what everyone wants, 581 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 2: which is long, happy life. 582 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:21,479 Speaker 1: I absolutely love that, and I definitely agree with the whole. 583 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: I've never actually heard someone explain it that way, and 584 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: I loved the way you explained it. In regards to 585 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: the whole. We see these symptoms, but we just kind 586 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 1: of tell our bodies to shut up. And that's kind 587 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: of my past. I had so many symptoms, which now 588 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 1: looking back, it's very obvious to me now, but back 589 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: then I had issues with under eating and overtraining, and 590 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 1: there was so many little things that were screaming out 591 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 1: to me and just saying, hey, look, I need attention. 592 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: And I was fact same in regards of fixing it 593 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,479 Speaker 1: with appeal or going to the symptom and fixing that 594 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: rather than getting to the core of the problem, which 595 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: I think we absolutely we kind of just in the 596 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 1: Western society, that's what we think we should be doing, 597 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: for sure. 598 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 2: And there's this quote that I love and it says, 599 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 2: or roughly, it says, if we don't listen to our 600 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 2: body when it talks, and we'll have to deal with 601 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 2: it when it screams. And I think that's so true, 602 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 2: is that it's trying to talk to us here and there, 603 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 2: and then one day we have a diagnosis that that's 604 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 2: it screaming, that's it saying, hey, we've tried to warn you, 605 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 2: but we really need some help now, there's something serious 606 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 2: going on here a. 607 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. And that's like I ignored my body 608 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: for two or three years, and then the issues I 609 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: had to deal with at the end, like it took 610 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: me another two or three years to get over them, 611 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: whereas if I just listened to it previously, I don't 612 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: think it would have taken that long to sort of 613 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: fix things exactly. 614 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 2: And I'm sure you're the same now that you kind 615 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 2: of know things on a deeper level, you kind of 616 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 2: see people going through a similar process that maybe you 617 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 2: were going through, and you just want to be able 618 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 2: to put everything in your mind into their head and 619 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 2: help them out and kind of explain it to them 620 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 2: so that they avoid all of that hussle. And that's 621 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 2: why the stage that I'm at now, I'm sure you've 622 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: had that as well. 623 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: Yes, no, exactly, Well, much like you. That's why I 624 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: created my ebook, and I know that's why you created 625 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: your programs because literally, when I was writing my ebook, 626 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: it's information that I wish I had a couple of 627 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: years ago, because I know it's a lot different now, 628 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: but people just weren't talking about this sort of stuff. 629 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: And I love that we're talking about it now, but 630 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: it does still surprise me how many people still don't 631 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: really get these concepts. 632 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: Absolutely That was kind of a question that was in 633 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 2: my mind when I was putting Infinite Vitality together, is 634 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 2: do people really need this? Are you know? Surely nowadays 635 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 2: with social media, people are slowly becoming more informed, which 636 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 2: is a great thing, And I was thinking to myself, 637 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 2: you know, do they need this? Do they need me 638 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 2: to tell them this? I'm sure a lot of people 639 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 2: are very informed by this point, but through interacting with 640 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 2: people and dms and talking to people, it's easy to 641 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 2: think that the awareness is there. But through these conversations 642 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 2: that I had, I learned that really it's not. And 643 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 2: we still need to be sharing as much education as 644 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 2: we can about these kinds of topics so that the 645 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 2: paradigm can gradually shift, you know, and these things will 646 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 2: become common knowledge and time. But I think we're still 647 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 2: at that tipping point where a lot of people and 648 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 2: the masses don't really understand how to view the body holistically, 649 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 2: and they don't really understand their health, and we're still 650 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,239 Speaker 2: stuck in that tradition of kind of just trusting our 651 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: bodies one hundred percent to doctors and not really having 652 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 2: to think about them or understand them ourselves. And I 653 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 2: think that's a really important shift to make is to 654 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 2: really put the responsibility a little bit more on ourselves 655 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 2: to recognize when things are going wrong or when something's 656 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 2: a little bit off, and whether it's physical. You know 657 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 2: a lot of people think of health just as physical. 658 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 2: You know, they have something going on in their body. 659 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 2: But as you know, I know that you write a 660 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 2: lot about this as well, and we have very similar mindsets. 661 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 2: It's so much about our emotions and our mental health 662 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 2: as well. And I know this is what your podcast 663 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 2: is a lot about, is self love and the feelings 664 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 2: that we have inside of us. That's a huge part of. 665 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: Health one hundred percent. And something that you were just 666 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: talking about previously, you say, misconceptions with our health, and 667 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: I was just wondering, could you give us a little example, 668 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: shed a little light on something that is very much 669 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: because of social media and that sort of thing. 670 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 2: For sure. Yes, I guess the one that comes to 671 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 2: mind initially is that people kind of see nice physique. 672 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 2: They might see someone that's super ripped up and they're 673 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 2: really bulky, and they're working out all the time, and 674 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 2: they're eating their chicken and their rice, and they think 675 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 2: that that is the definition of health and I know 676 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 2: that you've been around the gym scene a lot, so 677 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 2: I'm sure that that is not a surprise to you 678 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 2: that I would bring that one up, because that is 679 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: what a lot of people associate health with, is a 680 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 2: certain physique. And unfortunately, just because someone looks a certain way, 681 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: or they might have a six pack, or they might 682 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 2: have apps or whatever it is, doesn't mean that the 683 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 2: cells inside their body are being nourished fully. And one 684 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: example of this is actually that the meals that a 685 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 2: lot of bodybuilders or competitors consume are put in the 686 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 2: microwave to heat up. And there's so many studies about 687 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 2: the detrimental effects of microwaves that it actually depletes our 688 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: food of nutrients. And there's even a funny example that 689 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 2: you can do where if you water a plant with 690 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 2: water that you've microwaved for I think it's like two 691 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 2: weeks or something, and the plant actually starts to die 692 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 2: because the nutritional qualities that the water has in it, 693 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,479 Speaker 2: or that your food has in it that you're consuming 694 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 2: after it's been microwave are not the same as prior 695 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 2: to that. So just because someone looks a certain way 696 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 2: does not necessarily mean their cells are happy. And healthy 697 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 2: inside of them is basically what I'm trying to convey 698 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 2: with that. 699 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: I know one hundred percent. And it's funny you say 700 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: that about the microwave thing, because I remember I posted 701 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 1: that a while ago and I got a bit attacked 702 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: by ever end. They were like, no, that's not oh yeah, oh. 703 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, So I definitely agree that I 704 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: tried not to microwave things and I try and heat 705 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: it at the stoves. I remember reading it actually changes 706 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: the cells or the nutrients and that sort of thing, 707 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: which is crazy. And also what you were saying with 708 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: that misconception is so true because when I look back 709 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,479 Speaker 1: at the leanness and you know, I'm doing here in 710 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: air quotes the best I ever look, I was the 711 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: most unhealthiest I had ever been, exactly. It's starving. I 712 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: was overtraining, my body was under so much stress, and mentally, 713 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: I was not in a good place. And it's crazy because, 714 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: like you said, I think things are shifting, but also 715 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: it's very easy to slip in that mindset where we think, no, 716 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: that's healthy, that's what I need to be out where 717 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: it's just not the case exactly. 718 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 2: And I think some of the backlash that you would 719 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 2: have received from posting things like that. Whenever we post 720 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 2: a little bit of controversial style for things that go 721 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,959 Speaker 2: against the grain, naturally that's going to happen. And you 722 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: have such a following now that you're accustomed to this 723 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 2: and it doesn't affect you anymore. But it's interesting when 724 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 2: you look into the psychology behind what causes those reactions, 725 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 2: and it's actually a term that they call cognitive dissonance. 726 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 2: And basically, whenever we're presented with information that challenges our 727 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 2: existing beliefs, our brains hate it because kind of like 728 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 2: a conflict going on in our minds and it's really uncomfortable. 729 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 2: So if you're someone that's microwaving your food and you know, 730 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 2: maybe you're doing it with the best of intention, but 731 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 2: you hear something like this, it's obviously going to cause 732 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 2: a little bit of conflict. So our brain kind of 733 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 2: has three choices at that point, and we can kind 734 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 2: of lessen the importance of the belief, and you kind 735 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 2: of hear a lot of people do this in regards 736 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 2: to health, like, oh, you know, I got to die 737 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 2: of something anyway, it doesn't really matter, you know, and 738 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 2: just kind of lessen how important that fact is to you, 739 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 2: or you can go and seek out alternative information. Now 740 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 2: I googled it and microwaves are actually great for your 741 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 2: health because I found this one article and kind of 742 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 2: go about it that way. Or the only way that 743 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: we can actually get results whenever we face these mental 744 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 2: conflicts and kind of challenging beliefs in our mind is 745 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 2: by doing the third thing, which is the hardest thing, 746 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 2: which is why so many people don't do it, which 747 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 2: is actually change the action that we're doing, so stop 748 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 2: using the microwave. And unfortunately a lot of people find 749 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 2: it so hard to implement change because they don't understand 750 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 2: that process and it's not something that ever really stops. 751 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 2: You know, we all face it at times. But by 752 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 2: being aware that that's kind of what's going on in 753 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 2: your head, you can step back for a minute and 754 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 2: be like, well, why am I attacking Georgia online for 755 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:12,240 Speaker 2: the microwave when maybe I should just not use the microwave. 756 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 2: You know, Once we have that awareness of what's going 757 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 2: on and what's causing those actions and those reactions from people, 758 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 2: it's really interesting. I'm really intrigued by all of that stuff. 759 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 2: But once we can actually change the action, that's when 760 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 2: we're going to get the result. 761 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: It's so funny. That is very interesting because when I 762 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: think back, especially with a lot of old beliefs, definitely 763 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 1: the first time you hear them, you know that first 764 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 1: reaction where I just sort of push it away and go, 765 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: oh no, I know what's the truth and I know 766 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: my belief and then it's almost for me, I very 767 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: much had to hear it a lot more times to 768 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 1: start then thinking oh wait, maybe I do need to 769 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: look in this, like maybe I do need to change 770 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 1: my beliefs, whereas so many people would just completely stop 771 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: it at that first reaction. 772 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 2: For sure, I think that's what goes on for most 773 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 2: of us. So many times that I've done that in 774 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 2: the past too. Hindsight is a funny thing when you 775 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 2: look back and you kind of realize all the times 776 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 2: that you've done these funny things that you now realize 777 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 2: that you're doing. But so many people do it and 778 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 2: it's natural. But like I said, once you can understand 779 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 2: that that's what people generally do. Not only does it 780 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 2: help you as someone like yourself on social media to 781 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,839 Speaker 2: kind of receive those comments. And this is a whole 782 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 2: different topic, but being that I have a bit of 783 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 2: a following as well. I've experienced it too, whenever you 784 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 2: have the online negativity going on and that kind of thing. 785 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: But once we understand that that's kind of just the 786 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 2: mental process of what people are going through and what 787 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 2: they're at, it helps you to kind of not take 788 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 2: it so personally and not feel the need to defend 789 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 2: what you're talking about. Yeah, just kind of separate the 790 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 2: two things a little bit. And then as a person, 791 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 2: it helps you realize when you're doing it as well, 792 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 2: and when you actually might need to just sit down 793 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 2: for a second and really analyze what's going on and 794 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 2: make some changes if that's something that you ultimately want 795 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 2: to do. 796 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: I love that I've noticed how much more self aware 797 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 1: I've been the last couple of years compared to previous 798 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: that just how close minded I was. 799 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:07,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think it's something that we all grow 800 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 2: up with, you know. We all kind of grow up 801 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 2: a little bit closed minded, set in our ways, and 802 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 2: then I think it's kind of our journey becoming adults 803 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 2: to unlearn a whole lot of stuff that isn't really 804 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 2: serving us and then kind of implant the new actions 805 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 2: or beliefs or daily routines or whatever it is that 806 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 2: is going to get us where we want to be. So, yeah, 807 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 2: it's funny adulting. 808 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: Yes it is. I love that. Okay, I want to 809 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: quickly ask you just because obviously, like you said, you've 810 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 1: done a lot of research, You've gone really into this topic, 811 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: so I know there's probably not one, but if you 812 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: could nail it down to one, what is your holy 813 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: grail healthy habit? 814 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 2: Okay, So like you nailed it. There's so many things. 815 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 2: But the biggest shift that I made that was the 816 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 2: biggest game changer for me was becoming plant based and 817 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,959 Speaker 2: becoming vegan. I've been plant based for about six years now, 818 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 2: and I can confidently say that I've never looked, felt, 819 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 2: or performed better both mentally and physically. And learning everything 820 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 2: that I did about health, there was just way too 821 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 2: many studies out there proving the link between animal products 822 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 2: and increased risk of disease. So I initially just thought, well, 823 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 2: you know, I'll try it and see how I feel. 824 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 2: Because at the time, I faced a lot of cognitive dissonance. 825 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 2: I was like, eh, you know, I loved meat. Being 826 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 2: from Australia, you know how it is. There's so much 827 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 2: of a meat culture. I loved it, and I still 828 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 2: like I'm a bad vegan because I still enjoy the 829 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 2: smell of it walking past a barbecos something I could 830 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,280 Speaker 2: admit that, of course it tastes good. You know, everyone 831 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 2: wants to enjoy it, and no one really wants to 832 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 2: become a vegan. I was always one of those girls 833 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 2: that was like, no way, I could never ever ever 834 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,840 Speaker 2: do that, but I thought try it. Given what was 835 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 2: going on around me, I couldn't ignore it, and that 836 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 2: was enough of a personal realization for me to at 837 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 2: least give it a go. And the first thing that 838 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 2: I noticed was I had so much more energy, clearer 839 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 2: mind because my body wasn't wasting all of its energy 840 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 2: digesting animal products, which there's so much more taxing for 841 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 2: the body to break down. Yeah, so I had a 842 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 2: lot more energy. And the second thing that I noticed 843 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,359 Speaker 2: was that any little health stuff that I had going 844 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 2: on cleared up. And it was things that people don't 845 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 2: really see as a big deal, like I had a 846 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 2: little bit of asthma from when you grow up, and 847 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 2: they're like, oh, you know, you don't really have asthma. 848 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 2: Like it wasn't like I went for a run and 849 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 2: I was dying at the end of it or anything. 850 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 2: But whenever I got a cold or something like that, 851 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 2: I had like a little bit of asthma going on, 852 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 2: So I had none of that. That completely cleared up. 853 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 2: I've never had it since my skin started glowing. My 854 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 2: hormones balanced. I used to get kind of moody and 855 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 2: like irregular periods and that kind of thing, crazy mood swings, 856 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: the usual girl stuff, and that balanced out, and I 857 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 2: have completely normal hormones and completely normal cycle now. And 858 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 2: my hair grew a bunch and just a bunch of 859 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: other little signs that showed me that my body was 860 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 2: enjoying it. So I couldn't really ignore it, you know, 861 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 2: whatever my previous beliefs were, I felt and looked too 862 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 2: good at that point to really ignore it. And I 863 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 2: continued on and I could never ever imagine going back now. 864 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: I loved that. And it's so funny because what you 865 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: just spoke about with the whole the initial sort of reactions. 866 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 1: I'm not vegan. I definitely try and have a variety 867 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: where I will have vegan meals. But I was the 868 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 1: exact same back in the day. If you would have 869 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: asked me if I could ever be vegan, it would 870 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,239 Speaker 1: be a flat no, no way, bah blah blah. But 871 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: now that I, like you said, I've definitely done the 872 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 1: research and I know it. I'm not to that point yet, 873 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,720 Speaker 1: but I am noticing how much more open my mind 874 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: is coming. And I wouldn't never say like, I'd never 875 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,399 Speaker 1: say never, but I could not agree more with you 876 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: sort of realizing it, testing it and then seeing how 877 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: you go. And also I understand that you have a 878 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:43,720 Speaker 1: vegan ebook. Is that correct? 879 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just released it because I had Again, this 880 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,399 Speaker 2: was not something that I was ever thinking of doing, 881 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 2: was putting together, you know, a plant based eating guide 882 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 2: or anything like that. But I had so many people 883 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 2: that just had watched my stories on social media and 884 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 2: they wanted to at least try it, you know, they 885 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,080 Speaker 2: wanted to give it a go because they knew that 886 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 2: I had shared that it feel really great and they 887 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 2: kind of wanted to experience that in their own life, 888 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 2: but they had no idea where to start. You know, 889 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: people again think that it's just like a salad, and 890 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 2: I had a lot of friends asking me like, so 891 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 2: what do you eat? And there's just so many misconceptions. 892 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 2: I guess about how limiting it is that I wanted 893 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 2: to put it together to just show all the delicious 894 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 2: foods that you can still create with it. And I 895 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,479 Speaker 2: know that in your ebook you include vegan recipes as well, 896 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 2: which is awesome, just to show people that it doesn't 897 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,800 Speaker 2: have to be a drag. There's actually so many different 898 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 2: recipes and so many amazing delicious foods that you can 899 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,880 Speaker 2: actually cook while still using plant based ingredients. So I 900 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 2: put that together recently and if anyone's interested in it, 901 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 2: they can check it out at amysinkster dot com slash 902 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 2: ebook when I have a little guide in there too 903 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 2: on what to expect, because there are going to be 904 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 2: naturally when you change your diet or change anything in 905 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 2: your lifestyle, there's going to be some physical changes. So 906 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 2: I talk a little bit in the beginning about what 907 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 2: to expect when you're going plant based and some of 908 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 2: the things that I experienced, and then I kind of 909 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 2: dive into a bunch of my favorite recipes just to 910 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 2: give people a taste of how delicious it can be 911 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 2: and just for them to kind of experience a different 912 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 2: way of living. 913 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:12,800 Speaker 1: Basically, Yeah, I love that. At the end, I will 914 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,439 Speaker 1: let everyond know where to go so they can check 915 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: out all your stuff, and I'll think it in the 916 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 1: show notes, So if anyone wants to check out Amy's stuff, 917 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: go to the show notes. Otherwise we'll say it at 918 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: the end. But purposed, I've seen on your social media 919 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 1: you talk a lot about changing your life by changing 920 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: your vibration, and you did touch on that on the start. 921 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: But it's something I'm very interested in, and I know 922 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:42,320 Speaker 1: my audience is too, because we did a whole episode 923 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: on the law of attraction and everyone loved it. So 924 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 1: I'm just wondering, could you just explain a little bit 925 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: more about this and then also how someone can change 926 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: their vibration? 927 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, And this is I can understand why 928 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 2: everyone loves it because whenever I first was exposed to 929 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 2: this kind of stuff, it's pretty different from what we're 930 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 2: taught in school and it's pretty unique. So naturally it's 931 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:08,280 Speaker 2: something that's really exciting to learn about and really understand 932 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 2: it and start to harness it and see it in 933 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 2: action is something so cool. So I love talking about 934 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 2: this kind of stuff as well. But yeah, like I 935 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 2: said before, everything that we see, everything in our world, 936 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 2: everything in our environment, everything in this place is energy, 937 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 2: and our bodies are just masses of vibrating particles and 938 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 2: we can't see it, but we know it's there. Like 939 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 2: I said before, just like gravity, we know that it exists. 940 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,399 Speaker 2: So when we vibrate on a really low frequency, when 941 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,240 Speaker 2: we're down and out, we're unhealthy, we have low self worth, 942 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 2: we tend to attract more of that, and not only 943 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 2: does it affect our health, but it also affects the 944 00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 2: results that we're getting in life too. Just like a magnet, 945 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:45,240 Speaker 2: you can literally attract or repel outcomes. And on the contrary, 946 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 2: whenever we vibrate on a really high frequency, when we're healthy, 947 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 2: we love ourselves, we accept ourselves. We use empowering language 948 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 2: not only with those around us, but internally as well. 949 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 2: You know, we have that voice inside our head that's 950 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 2: talking to us all day long. So whenever we have 951 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 2: really empowering diale going on inside our heads, we become 952 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 2: more energized and we're also going to be heading in 953 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 2: a completely different direction and attracting completely different results. So 954 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,359 Speaker 2: that's kind of the law of attraction in a bit 955 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 2: of a nutshell, And if anyone wants to research more 956 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 2: on that, I kind of learned a lot of that 957 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 2: from Bob Procter, who is one of the mentors that 958 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 2: was in the actual movie The Secret, I believe, So 959 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,319 Speaker 2: he has a lot of awesome content for more in 960 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 2: depth explanations, and I'm sure you guys covered that in 961 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 2: a lot of your previous podcasts. But yeah, it's definitely 962 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 2: a really really exciting topic to learn about. 963 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 1: So good and so I just wanted to ask you. 964 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 1: I know you're very interested in how the brain works 965 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 1: and that sort of thing. So I've definitely been in 966 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 1: that sort of position where you want to make a change, 967 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: you want to start implementing more healthy habits and that 968 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,959 Speaker 1: sort of thing. But could you maybe shed some light 969 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: on how someone could actually implement a healthy habit or 970 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: a healthy change and actually stick to it, because it's 971 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 1: seemingly very hard. 972 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,399 Speaker 2: It definitely is. I wish it were easier. I think 973 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 2: everyone in the entire planet wishes it was easier. But 974 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 2: the inconvenient fact is that our brains hate change. It 975 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,360 Speaker 2: causes discomfort, and as humans were wired actually to seek 976 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 2: pleasure and to avoid pain, so that's what our animal 977 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 2: brain is kind of conditioned to do from back in 978 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,560 Speaker 2: the Stone Age, back in the day we were just 979 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 2: wired to seek pleasure avoid pain. That's it. That's what 980 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 2: our brain's job is. And the part of the brain 981 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:33,400 Speaker 2: responsible for processing perceived threats is called the amygdala. So 982 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 2: if we were attacked by a dog when we were young, 983 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 2: the amygdala is what causes your body to release cortisol 984 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 2: and activate your fighter flight response. So whenever you see 985 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,799 Speaker 2: a dog running toward you, the amygdala will activate that 986 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:47,800 Speaker 2: fighter flight response, and unfortunately it activates the same response 987 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 2: when we're faced with new information that causes discomfort. So, 988 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 2: like I was saying, before you Know, the smoker is 989 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:57,320 Speaker 2: able to completely disregard or justify smoking despite the massive 990 00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 2: amount of information out there that it will kill you. 991 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,840 Speaker 2: So well, this keeps us safe from prey. It's not 992 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 2: very conducive of our brains to do this to us 993 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,239 Speaker 2: with self improvement, so we need to know how to 994 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 2: understand it and ultimately to be able to override those processes. So, 995 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 2: like I said in the example before you Know, we 996 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 2: can lessen the importance of the new information like gotta 997 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 2: die are something anyway, or we can seek out alternative 998 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 2: information like the smoker's granddad might have smoked and he 999 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 2: lived to ninety nine and that's his justification, or we 1000 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,720 Speaker 2: can actually do the hard thing and stop the conflicting behavior, 1001 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,280 Speaker 2: which is stop smoking in this example. So unfortunately, there's 1002 00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,879 Speaker 2: not an easy fix, and I think if there were, 1003 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 2: like I said, someone would be very rich trying to 1004 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 2: sell this, because we actually have to be responsible for 1005 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 2: choosing that third option. If we want to get anywhere, 1006 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 2: if we want to make changes, we have to be responsible. 1007 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,319 Speaker 2: And everyone absolutely has the power to, but we just 1008 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 2: have to break through the limiting beliefs and the conditioning, 1009 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 2: and also understanding how our brain works helps us to 1010 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 2: make those better decisions, because whenever we're just running on 1011 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 2: autopilot going about days, a lot of the time we 1012 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 2: don't even realize that this is the stuff that's going 1013 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,919 Speaker 2: on in our minds. So I think just by understanding 1014 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 2: this is kind of the first step in being able 1015 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,400 Speaker 2: to choose the best response for ourselves whenever we're faced 1016 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 2: with that kind of situation. You know, maybe you wanted 1017 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 2: to go to the gym, and you made a New 1018 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 2: Year's resolution that you wanted to go to the gym, 1019 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 2: but you notice that it's becoming a bit tough, you know, 1020 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 2: after month one, month two, you're not really sticking to 1021 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 2: it anymore. And that's when it's possible to sit yourself 1022 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 2: down and really identify what is causing me to have 1023 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 2: these reactions and am I kind of justifying things? Or 1024 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 2: what am I doing? What's going on in my head, 1025 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:37,799 Speaker 2: and really just getting in the habit of sitting with 1026 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 2: your thoughts and trying to understand them rather than just 1027 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 2: running on autopilot. And I know you said that you've 1028 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,279 Speaker 2: changed your mindset in a massive way, and I think 1029 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 2: you'd agree that becoming self aware is such a game 1030 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 2: changer for every area of life, and just realizing that 1031 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 2: we don't have to just let our life run on autopilot, 1032 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 2: because if we do that, our thoughts and our emotions 1033 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,840 Speaker 2: will dictate everything and often and they're a little crazy. 1034 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 2: So we have to be self aware and we have 1035 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,400 Speaker 2: to be able to sit down and realize what's going on. 1036 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: I love also what you said about taking responsibility, Like 1037 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 1: you said, being self aware enough and saying, hey, I 1038 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:16,919 Speaker 1: have a choice, which lots of people it's like they're 1039 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 1: not self aware enough to even realize they have a choice. 1040 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 1: And it's about asking yourself, like do I want this enough? 1041 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 1: I have the choice. I can make it happen if 1042 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: I want that sort. 1043 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 2: Of thing, absolutely, and I think by kind of putting 1044 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 2: the responsibility on us, it's great, but it's also a challenge. 1045 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 2: You know. Whenever we blame external circumstances or people or 1046 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 2: events in our life, it shifts the responsibility away from us. 1047 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:41,879 Speaker 2: And that's why we do it so much of the time, 1048 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 2: is because it feels better to be able to blame 1049 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 2: someone else, or blame your upbringing or whatever it is 1050 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 2: that you're blaming. It's easier, you know. Of course we 1051 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 2: want to be able to do that, and that's how 1052 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,359 Speaker 2: brains yet again trying to avoid pain, because once we 1053 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,240 Speaker 2: actually accept that responsibility ourselves, that's when we realize, wow, 1054 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 2: everything in my life life is actually a direct result 1055 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 2: of things that I have thoughts, said, or done. You know, 1056 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 2: this is all my responsibility and my doing. And although 1057 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,839 Speaker 2: that's really really challenging sometimes to internalize and sit with, 1058 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 2: especially if the results that you have aren't the ones 1059 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 2: that you'd ideally like, it's also really really empowering because 1060 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 2: once you realize that, that's when you have the ability 1061 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,239 Speaker 2: to change. Because whenever we're really passing off that responsibility 1062 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 2: to others and blaming and doing all of that kind 1063 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 2: of shifting, then we are really saying, well, it's not 1064 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,240 Speaker 2: in my control universe. You know, I can't do anything 1065 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:33,799 Speaker 2: about it. This is my life and it's going to 1066 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 2: stay this way forever. And unfortunately that's really disempowering and 1067 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:38,919 Speaker 2: it might help you feel good in the short term 1068 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 2: to blame someone else, but ultimately it's not going to 1069 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 2: get your results. And once we can take that responsibility 1070 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 2: and say, you know, this is pretty challenging to admit, 1071 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 2: but now that I know it, I can make these 1072 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 2: awesome changes and I can do anything in my life 1073 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,200 Speaker 2: that I want to if I just realize that everything 1074 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:56,319 Speaker 2: that's going on in my life is a reflection of 1075 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 2: what's going on inside and I have control over that. 1076 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 2: So that's a really, really empowering thought. And I think 1077 00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,400 Speaker 2: that was such a massive game changer for me, is 1078 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 2: realizing that everything is in your control everything. 1079 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:09,799 Speaker 1: I'd love that so much. And that's the whole thing 1080 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: about using your power, finding your power, and that's so empowering, 1081 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 1: oh for sure. Yeah, And so I want to quickly 1082 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 1: wrap things up. I have one last question for you, 1083 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 1: and this has come from another sort of post that 1084 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: I've seen on your social media. Look, I'm basically a stalker. 1085 00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:33,359 Speaker 1: I'm sorry to talk you too, So I want to 1086 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 1: ask you. You did a really awesome post on why 1087 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 1: motivation doesn't work? Could you finish off this perfect conversation 1088 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 1: and just go into a little bit more detail and 1089 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 1: explain this to our audience? 1090 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 2: For sure? Yeah, and that one sounds really negative from 1091 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 2: the get go. Maybe it was a bit of clickbait 1092 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 2: in the title. Who knows, But I do stand by 1093 00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 2: what I say, and I back it up by saying 1094 00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 2: that motivation serves us for a period of time. And 1095 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,720 Speaker 2: I think motivation is great. Don't get me wrong. Motivation 1096 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 2: is wonderful. I love feeling motivated. I think everyone should 1097 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:08,279 Speaker 2: feel motivated as much as they can. But that's not 1098 00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,880 Speaker 2: the issue. It just serves us for a period of time. 1099 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:14,359 Speaker 2: So how often have you been really motivated to start something, 1100 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 2: whether it's you know, starting a new habit, eating a 1101 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 2: certain way, starting a business, whatever it is, and then 1102 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 2: it fades? And I think we've all done this, especially 1103 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 2: with things like New Year's resolutions. So I think that 1104 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,440 Speaker 2: there's two things that we kind of need to consider 1105 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 2: when we're thinking about motivation, And firstly, it's that we 1106 00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:31,919 Speaker 2: need to understand the patterns that we've learned when we're 1107 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 2: young and see if they're hindering us now. And what 1108 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:36,919 Speaker 2: I mean by that is some people might be really 1109 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 2: motivated to start a business or to learn public speaking, 1110 00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 2: but when they were young, maybe they tried something new 1111 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 2: and they were humiliated by their peers in like grade 1112 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 2: one or something like that, and this actually teaches the 1113 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 2: brain that putting yourself out there is scary, and it's 1114 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 2: safer and less painful for us not to try, so again, 1115 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 2: going back to avoiding pleasure, avoiding pain, sorry, and seeking pleasure. 1116 00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 2: So motivated as this person might be, the subconscious mind 1117 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,919 Speaker 2: has a fear of failure from this silly little event 1118 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,279 Speaker 2: in grade one. That we all face little things like that. 1119 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 2: So I don't mean to belittle it by saying it's silly, 1120 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:08,880 Speaker 2: but in the grand scheme of things, it's such a 1121 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,840 Speaker 2: silly event to really have such a grand impact on 1122 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 2: our lives. But so much of the time it still 1123 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:17,080 Speaker 2: affects us in the future, this subconscious fear or failure 1124 00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:21,040 Speaker 2: that we learned from a young age. So whenever you're motivated, 1125 00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 2: you know you could be really really motivated to go 1126 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 2: and start your business and do public speaking, but when 1127 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 2: it gets down to it, you're actually not going to 1128 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 2: get on your computer and you're not going to start 1129 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 2: the business, or you're not going to stand up and 1130 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 2: speak because your brain it might manifest as anxiety, but 1131 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 2: it's this massive, uncomfortable feeling that you feel because of 1132 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 2: a past experience and you haven't really broken through that. 1133 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 2: So that's kind of one side of why I say 1134 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 2: that motivation isn't the be all and end all, because 1135 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,840 Speaker 2: ultimately there are still subconscious things that can be limiting 1136 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:52,880 Speaker 2: us no matter how motivated we might be. And I 1137 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 2: think that's quite a frustrating thing for a lot of people, 1138 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,759 Speaker 2: is feeling super motivated and like they want to do 1139 00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 2: amazing things with their life, but when it gets to 1140 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 2: it can't quite seem to do it. And I bring 1141 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 2: it up because we all can, you know. We just 1142 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:07,840 Speaker 2: have to be aware of the little things holding us 1143 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,400 Speaker 2: back and be able to break through them. And ultimately 1144 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 2: that's when it feels like effortless, like oh, I have 1145 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,839 Speaker 2: motivation and I can just do the thing, rather than 1146 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 2: it being such a struggle. But the second thing, the 1147 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 2: second reason that I say that is that we need 1148 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 2: to be committed, not just motivated, And anyone doing anything 1149 00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 2: will tell you that inevitably, there's going to be days 1150 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 2: where we just don't feel like it. And I'm sure 1151 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 2: you feel like this. No matter how much you love 1152 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:34,799 Speaker 2: your business, and no matter how much you absolutely love 1153 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:36,879 Speaker 2: what you're doing at the moment, there are days where 1154 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 2: we just wake up and we don't feel it. And 1155 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 2: no matter how incredible anyone's life is, I guarantee you 1156 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 2: everyone will agree to that question. So to me, those 1157 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 2: are the days that we really need to rely on 1158 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 2: commitment rather than just motivation, because commitment is something that 1159 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 2: we have even when it's tough, and that's what ultimately 1160 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 2: allows us to take consistent action, whereas motivation is just 1161 00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 2: kind of what we do when we feel like it. 1162 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:01,359 Speaker 2: And I think it's a great thing to have. Don't 1163 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 2: get me wrong, but I think that there are more 1164 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 2: important qualities than pure motivation to get us to really 1165 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 2: take action and do these amazing things that we all 1166 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:09,840 Speaker 2: want to do in our lives. 1167 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:14,840 Speaker 1: Yes, oh my god, I love that.

For one, 1177 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 2: it's been really really cool to speak to you and 1178 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:41,719 Speaker 2: a fellow Aussie as well, doing her own thing and 1179 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 2: following her passion. I think that's awesome, especially leaving such 1180 00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:49,319 Speaker 2: a socially accepted job to do it. I commend you 1181 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:50,879 Speaker 2: on that, and I think that's such an awesome thing 1182 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:53,319 Speaker 2: that you're sharing that with people now.

So I would 1190 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:15,240 Speaker 2: love it if we get to kind of interact more 1191 00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 2: with our different audiences and share some things between us, because, 1192 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 2: like I said, I think we have a very similar 1193 00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 2: mindsets and actually quite a similar journey.
