It was just like the 94 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: most magical time but almost the most aligned, Like I've 95 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: never felt so alive and so aligned in all my life. 96 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: And you know, we created such a special friendship out 97 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: of it as well, and even our husbands did.

We hurting our dreams. Please, but let's get. 104 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 2: Into the show, because that was the most random intro ever. Yes, 105 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 2: welcome to the show. I'm so excited we're finally doing this. 106 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 2: Me and Mad's actually filmed this last year and then 107 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 2: I remember we got cut off for some reason. We 108 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 2: both had to go and I was like, oh, we'll 109 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: record the rest later, and then we just never got 110 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 2: to it. So we're just re recording and yeah, we're 111 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: doing it. 112 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: We're doing it. A lot's changed since then as well 113 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: for me, so I'm glad we're redoing it. I'm excited 114 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: to be here. So I know I said this to 115 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: you before the call, but it's actually my first manifestation 116 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one that's coming to life, so I'm 117 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: very excited. 118 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 2: Yes, Oh my god, it's oh, I body love you. 119 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 2: So Mad's ge is so into like manifesting and like, 120 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: you know, all the all the stuff that you know 121 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 2: I love to talk about. So we're going to get 122 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: into that. But first of all, Mad's what's your favorite 123 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 2: quote to hellp pew, rise and conquer? Well. 124 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: I think this really changes for me depending on my season, 125 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: but at the moment, there's two. I've got two and 126 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: I've made them up myself and they just feel quite aligned. 127 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: And the first one is that you were wildly capable 128 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: of achieving your wildest dreams. And for me, that's just 129 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: it's just a bit of a checkpoint. I just I 130 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,239 Speaker 1: constantly remind myself that, you know, it's not a race, 131 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: there's no timeline. You'll achieve what you want when you want, 132 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: and you're capable of doing it. But my favorite one 133 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: is that I'm not here to play small, and for me, 134 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: that definitely reminds me to rise and comcast. So that's 135 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: been a really powerful one for me, probably over the 136 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: last probably more just the last couple of months. And 137 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: I think, you know, George, we always talk about it 138 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: where we hate staying in our comfort zones, and I 139 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: think I spent a lot of twenty twenty with just 140 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: a nature of what twenty twenty was, and everyone everyone 141 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: probably feels the same. But you know, I did spend 142 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: a lot of that year within my comfort zone, and 143 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: it's probably the longest time I've ever spent inside a 144 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: comfort zone. So it's just my reminder to keep getting 145 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: outside of it because I know that that's where the 146 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: magic lies. 147 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 2: Yes, but that is like, that is so understandable because 148 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty, like you know, COVID, and also you 149 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 2: were a new mum. So yeah, well I should have 150 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: said this at the start, But can you give the 151 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 2: audience a bit of it? I just assume everyone just 152 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 2: knows who you are, but can you give the audience 153 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 2: a bit of snapshot of who you are and what 154 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 2: you do? 155 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: Of course, So I'm the creator and the host of 156 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: the Healthy Hustlers podcast, which Georgie, you have been a 157 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: guest on several times and where we built our friendship through. 158 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm also a mum to a very vibrant little sixteen 159 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: month old Georgia Florence. She's the absolute light of my 160 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: life but also making me a very exhausted human at 161 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: the moment. And I'm also a wife to my now 162 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: husband of ten years, Ryan. We met actually when I 163 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: was twenty one in Byron Bay and we got married 164 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: there in two thousand and eighteen. I am a cancer 165 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: and I'm very true cancer. I'm very sensitive soul. I'm 166 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: quite intuitive, and I like to think I'm a nurturer 167 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: and I'm absolutely obsessed with health, mindset, personal development and 168 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: hustling with heart. 169 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 3: Oh you just bloody summed that up. I love that. So, Mads, 170 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 3: let's get straight into it. 171 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 2: So before you were talking about you know this coming 172 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 2: on the podcast was one of your twenty twenty one manifestations. 173 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: Tell us a little bit about you know what, like 174 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: what you want to get out of this year and 175 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 2: what this year is going to look like for you. 176 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: Oh that's a big question. 177 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 2: I know I've thrown you a bit of a curve ball, 178 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 2: but let's do it. 179 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you know and I know we're speaking 180 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: before this interview. But I at the moment feel so 181 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: spiritually connected, like more spiritually connected than I ever have. 182 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: I've grown up quite a spiritual person, to be honest, 183 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: and I probably didn't realize that until later in life. 184 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: But you know, my mum lost her parents when she 185 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 1: was really young, well before I was born, and she 186 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: used to at night make my brother and I choose 187 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: the two brightest stars in the sky, and then she 188 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: would say, well, that's Nanalie and that's paper us. Give 189 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: them a kiss good night. And so I've kind of 190 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: always grown up with that really spiritual way of life 191 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: in a way, or feeling like there's always something bigger 192 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: working in our favor. And so at the moment I 193 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: feel so spiritually aligned and so connected, and I think 194 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: as a result, I've actually been able to really take 195 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: my foot off the exalarator and really just take a 196 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: step back and start this year a lot more slower 197 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: and a lot more considered and in a much healthier 198 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: and more vibrant I think in the past, I've always 199 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: kind of just gone in all guns blazing and then 200 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: got halfway through the year and felt so burnt out 201 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: and exhausted and maybe that I haven't achieved as much. 202 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: So this year, I'm really starting slow. I'm actually technically 203 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: not starting my working year until March, which probably sounds 204 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: crazy for an ambitious person, but that's where I'm at 205 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: at the moment. But I do have some pretty big goals, 206 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: and I think, you know, I really have focused this year, 207 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: especially on setting myself up for success when it comes 208 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: to my manifestations and spiritual practices. So I spent the 209 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: first three weeks of the year literally just digging really 210 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: deep and finding tapping into my intuition and really asking 211 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: myself what I believe I'm here for and how I 212 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: believe I can bring more light this year, and how 213 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: I can shine brighter and how I can be of 214 00:11:54,440 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: service to others. And that has been through meditation, constant journaling, 215 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: really diving into manifestation practices as well. So I've read 216 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: a lot of different books on manifestation over time, and 217 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: you know, obviously I take a lot from what you 218 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: talk about on your socials, and I've done a lot 219 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: of work with Gabby Bernstein in the past as well, 220 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: and so I've kind of feel like I've collected all 221 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: these these practices and people's different ways of manifesting, and 222 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: I've made my own, and I really have wholeheartedly dug 223 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: deep into that this year and spent a lot of 224 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: time on my vision board and connecting with you know, 225 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 1: the things that are on my vision board, and then 226 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: from that setting goals that I do want to achieve 227 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: over the next couple of months to twelve months. 228 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, I just love that so much. But 229 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 2: first of all, I love what you said about you know, 230 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 2: you didn't go into the year like guns blazing and 231 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 2: you know, being all crazy, and you actually started the 232 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 2: year like very like very soft and very like inwards, 233 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: going INDs and doing those practices. And it's funny because 234 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 2: I actually was talking to someone in my DMS yesterday 235 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: and she said, you know, like, I'm so busy, I 236 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 2: my mind so busy, so much is going on. I 237 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 2: really feel out of alignment. How do I get back 238 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 2: in alignment? And I'm someone who loves to talk about alignment. 239 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 2: And I literally said to her, you need to get still, 240 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 2: you need to stop doing, you need to start being, 241 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 2: because when we get still and when we get quiet, like, 242 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 2: that's when we get the aligned guidance. That's when we 243 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 2: get you know, the aligned next steps and really hear ourselves. 244 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 2: And I think because we live in such like this 245 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 2: like busy, hectic world where yeah, like you said, it's 246 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: like the start of the year and everyone's doing and 247 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: that sort of thing, we can often forget that it's 248 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 2: like almost as simple as you just need some quiet time. 249 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 3: You need to stop doing and you need to start being. 250 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 2: So I absolutely loved that you did that, and I 251 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 2: can see from your socials and everything like that too, 252 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 2: it has been. 253 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 3: Really amazing for you. 254 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 2: And also just to touch on, I love what you 255 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: said about manifesting because I also am such a big 256 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 2: believer that you know, we yeah, we can chat about manifesting, 257 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 2: and you know, we have all these different concepts and 258 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: books and like you, I have read so many, but honestly, 259 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: it is going to be a little bit different for everyone, 260 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: and there's going to be you know, different practices that 261 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 2: you prefer and that you work well with and all 262 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: that sort of thing. And I think, and that's actually 263 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 2: something I teach with in my course. The project is 264 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: I go, look, here's what I do, here's my formula, 265 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 2: here's all the concepts, but you need to make it 266 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 2: your own. 267 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: Because that's when it works. 268 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: Yes, I love it, and I think that that is 269 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: exactly It's so true, you know. And for me, I 270 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: think the big piece of the pie that I was 271 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: missing with my manifesting for a long time was the 272 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: feeling of feeling good, you know, and really getting energetically 273 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: in my lives high vibes, you know, the things that 274 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: we need to get to a high vibrational level to 275 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: attract the greatness that we want in our lives. And 276 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: so for me last year, the lack of feeling good 277 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: was such a huge block for what I was dreaming of. 278 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: So I was very intentional this year. I was back 279 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: at home, you know, where I grew up in Cape 280 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: Patterson with all of my family. Our house is two 281 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: hundred meters from the beach, the most beautiful beach in 282 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: the world, and so I had this beautiful opportunity to 283 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: be very considered considered with my time and to invest 284 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: a lot in feeling good. And I think it was 285 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: the first time in a long time that I had 286 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: felt good. And so from that, naturally, you know, it 287 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: goes back to what we were just saying about creating 288 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: that space. You know, Naturally, you start to get these 289 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: messages from your highest self for these things start to 290 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: feel right and more aligned because you have the space 291 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: let them in. So for me, it was almost like 292 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: this time just investing in me and in my health 293 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: and my spiritual practices felt so good that I almost 294 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: haven't wanted to rush back to work because I'm like, no, 295 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: this feels exactly where I'm meant to be right now. 296 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: And it's also stopped the comparison games and the doing 297 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: things for the sake of it, and I feel just 298 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: very like I'm in my own lane and I'm doing 299 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: things for me, which is a really nice feeling. 300 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: Oh, I absolutely love that, and yes, I couldn't agree more. 301 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 2: And also like, I love what you said about the 302 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 2: like the high vibes and you know, like the actual 303 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 2: feeling good. And I think I think people do often 304 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: forget that component of you know, they can do their 305 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: meditation and they consider in the feeling of what it 306 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 2: would feel like if they had achieved the manifestation, but 307 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: it's also like, you know, the vibes for the rest 308 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 2: of the day. And it's really funny because at the moment, 309 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 2: I've had like the most hectic week, you know, it 310 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 2: was the it's the enrollment of my project. 311 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 3: Lot's happening. 312 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 2: I still have to do all my other businesses, and 313 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 2: I'm noticing I'm getting, you know, a little bit stressed, 314 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 2: a little bit of anxiety and stuff coming on. And 315 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 2: literally what I will stop and do if I'm. 316 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 3: Like feeling that kind of like that like slump. 317 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: I will go into the kitchen, I will say Alexa, 318 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 2: and then I play my favorite song and I literally 319 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 2: will just dance it out. 320 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 3: I don't know if you're saying it does a lot 321 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 3: of my social. 322 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 2: But it's because like when you and this is kind 323 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 2: of like a little practice of like when you dance, 324 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 2: you're literally shifting energy. And when you dance to one 325 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 2: of your favorite songs, and I'm running around the house 326 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 2: with the dogs, and it's like at the start, I 327 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: didn't want to do it, and then I, like, you know, 328 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: I feel the happiness, I feel the the fun. It's 329 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 2: about like feeling those feelings. So like I will make 330 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 2: myself do stuff like that just to kind of shift 331 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 2: into that high vibe, not even for the sake of manifesting, 332 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 2: some think, but just to feel good in that moment. 333 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: Yes, I love that so much. G and It's so 334 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: funny because, like, you know, the thing is that we 335 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: are always manifesting, like if we know it or not, 336 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: like it's either conscious or it's unconscious. Like we are 337 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: constantly manifesting, and whatever our thoughts are, we're turning them 338 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: into our own reality. So the more positive thoughts that 339 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: we can have consistently, the greater things that we're going 340 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: to keep attracting. And I actually had who I know 341 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: you've had on your podcast, but I had Rachelle Fox 342 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: on my podcast at the end of last year. 343 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 2: Yes, and she's amazing. 344 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: She's incredible, isn't she. I love her. And she actually 345 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: said about having a manifest a manifestation song that you 346 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 1: were aligned to. And it was really funny. One day 347 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: when I was sitting on the beach and I was 348 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: journaling and like you know, the ways of crashing, and 349 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: it was just like the sun was beaming down on me. 350 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: I just felt so so deeply connected to nature and 351 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: the universe and my higher self, and I thought, I 352 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: can't live with just one song. I'm going to sit 353 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: here and make a manifestation playlist. And I actually made 354 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: myself a playlist, I think maybe with fourteen songs but 355 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: what I did in that moment was I played every 356 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: song and I like anyone walking past to Thillot that 357 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: I was absolutely crazy. But I literally sat there and 358 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: like was almost like I was performing on stage in 359 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 1: my head, Like I got the vibe so good in 360 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: my body, and like the you know, the cliff at 361 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: the beach was my stage, and I was just really 362 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: feeling every single song and looking at this beach and 363 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: this beautiful place where I grew up. And now every time, yeah, 364 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 1: like you I'm in that slum more, I'm just like, oh, 365 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: life or George just woke me up during the night, 366 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 1: so I feel, you know, tired and exhausted. The next day, 367 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: I put on my playlist and I have all of 368 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 1: those visualizations of sitting on the beach, and all of 369 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: those feelings automatically just fill my body and I just 370 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 1: feel so aligned and electric. Again, It's such a magical 371 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: practice that I'm definitely using a lot at the moment. 372 00:19:58,920 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 3: Ah. 373 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 2: I love that, and I think that's also like I'm great, 374 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 2: I'm glad you touched on it, because it's not like 375 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: this place of you know, you learn how to manifest, 376 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 2: you learn how to shift your vibe and then all 377 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 2: of a sudden, your life is just perfect. It's like, no, 378 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 2: you have to continuously, you know, practice these practices. You 379 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 2: have to continuously like learn new ways to shift and 380 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: be onto it. And I think it's like, you know, 381 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 2: it's just like your fitness journey, where you've got to 382 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 2: continuously like work at it and be consistent with it. 383 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 1: That is so true. And do you know what it 384 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 1: actually takes me back to like last year, and I 385 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: think for the first time in a really long time, 386 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: I really had to practice what I preach and what 387 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: I realized during that time, you know, sorry for context, 388 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: I was in I live in Melbourne, so we spent 389 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: most of the year in lockdown and Georgia was just 390 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 1: started crawling and started walking during that time, so it 391 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: was pretty hectic being locked in an apartment with a toddler, 392 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 1: not really only being able to leave the house for 393 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: four reasons. But what I realized during that time, or 394 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: one of the greatest lessons for me, has been that, 395 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 1: you know, mastering our mindset is a constant work in progress, 396 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 1: and there's always new hurdles and challenges to overcome, and 397 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: we'd never really know how we're going to respond to 398 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,719 Speaker 1: a situation until we actually live and breathe it. And 399 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: I think, you know, for me personally, I worked a 400 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: lot on my mindset when I left my corporate job 401 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: to start the Healthy Hustlers, to remove a lot of 402 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: limiting beliefs that I wasn't smart enough. And then I 403 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: had to master my mindset again, you know, when I 404 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: was pregnant to be in order to have the natural 405 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: kind of drug free birth that I was desiring. And 406 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: last year I was reminded that, like, you know, I 407 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: had to work on it all over again, like it's 408 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: a constant work in progress. And I think that's the 409 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: same with manifestation or our health, Like you would know 410 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: firsthand how much our health is a work in progress 411 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: and we're always having to kind of check back in 412 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: and rework it when situations occur. 413 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 3: One hundred and ten percent. 414 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 2: This episode is brought to you by Naked Harvest Supplements, 415 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 2: the natural supplement company I co founded with my brother. 416 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 3: This company was. 417 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 2: Really brought to life because I have been using supplements 418 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 2: for such a long time since the start of my 419 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 2: fitness journey.

You know, 465 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 2: you quote unquote made it, and then you decided to 466 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: leave that and really kind of pursue your own thing 467 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 2: and you started your podcast. 468 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 3: So can you tell the. 469 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 2: Audience a little bit about, you know, the reasons for 470 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 2: leaving your corporate job and what the transition was from 471 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 2: corporate into you know, finding your passion. 472 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, So I started my corporate career or working 473 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: career at the Cottnam Group, which is a global fashion retailer, 474 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: and I was there for about four and a half years. 475 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: So I worked across at the starting their charity events 476 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: and then as the event manager for cotton On Body 477 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: and I loved the energy there, like the plate, the 478 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: energy in that place was literally electric. And I was 479 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: always outside of my comfort zone. I really feel like 480 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: that is where I learned how important being outside of 481 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: your comfort zone is for your personal growth. And so 482 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: each role I had there, like I was so highly 483 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: underqualified for it's not even funny, Like it's like, you know, 484 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,360 Speaker 1: I didn't even get an end to score high enough, 485 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: and to score to getting straight to UNI, I had 486 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 1: to go and study it tay first and then make 487 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 1: my way into university. So like I was so underqualified 488 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: for the roles that I was getting. But what it 489 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: did was make me so hungry to grow and to learn, 490 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: and I guess to keep really paving my own path. 491 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 1: And I really, you know, like I said, I learned 492 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: how important it was to be outside of my comfort 493 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: zone and that's when I think I felt the most alive. 494 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: But it was, however, a really demanding job and it 495 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: required a lot of me, both mentally and emotionally, and 496 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: I guess as a result, I really struggled a lot 497 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 1: with burnout. I had very little time for self care 498 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 1: or even knowledge of self care, to be completely honest. 499 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 1: And you know, my relationship probably wasn't the best that 500 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: it could be, and so there was all of these 501 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: flow on effects. Even though I loved it, it was 502 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: everything else in my world was not in sync. It 503 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: was like my career was thriving, but every other aspect 504 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 1: was completely out of whack. But at that time, I 505 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: actually was working with a lot of the Ambassadors, so 506 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: some pretty highly influential people, and you know, I would 507 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: watch them and there were these people that were literally 508 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: at the top of their game and they were hustling 509 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: so hard, but they never ever got burnt out. And 510 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: I became quite obsessed, I guess, with finding out how 511 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: they did it, like how what healthy habits were they doing, 512 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: or what hacks did they have to allow them to 513 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: always stay at the top of their game and to 514 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 1: be that really vibrant, alive, best version of themselves. And 515 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: so my husband's actually been very good at that. Ryan, 516 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: you know, he owns his own business, and he's always 517 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: been very good at investing in himself. And so I 518 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: think throughout that time I really started to inject some 519 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: healthy habits into my own life, and as a result, 520 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: I saw the benefits and I started to feel so amazing. 521 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I also was started to 522 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 1: find myself in a very toxic environment. There. There was 523 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: a lot of people that were really dulling my sparkle, 524 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 1: and I was aware that I wasn't the best, most vibrant, 525 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: you know, matty self anymore. I wasn't who I wanted 526 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: to show up as every day. And so, you know, 527 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: when things like that happen in your life, I think 528 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: that you need to take a step back and start 529 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: really figuring out what's important and so for me, I 530 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: really had to take a step back and I had 531 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: to redefine what success actually meant to me, Like did 532 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: it mean the job title and the salary or did 533 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: it mean a fulfilling, happy relationship and you know, the 534 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: feeling good and waking up feeling inspired and confident and alive, 535 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: and you know that stuff outweighs money for me any day. 536 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: So I kind of took matters into my own hands 537 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: and I transitioned to a job in Melbourne, closer to home, 538 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: so that at that point was an hour from home, 539 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: so I was driving an hour to work each day. 540 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: So I was kind of gone seven till seven seven 541 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: thirty and then traveled all the time on weekends because 542 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: I was in events overseas, like I think at one 543 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: point I did four countries in ten days, so it 544 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: was like incredibly intense. So yeah, I got a job 545 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: back in Melbourne for a health food brand, which I 546 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: just loved, and very quickly I learned the importance of 547 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: aligning your hustle with heart. So they were a small 548 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: business and I could really see that fire in their 549 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: balley each and every day. And so it was also 550 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: during that time that I was able to create more 551 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: space in my life. You know, I was able to 552 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: really think about what lights me up, what do I 553 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: love doing at work, what excites me, what makes me 554 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: feel like, you know, the Maddy I want to be. 555 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: And I also found my creativity started coming back. My confidence, 556 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: my spark was there. And it was all because I 557 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: had this extra space. Instead of driving to work, going 558 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: into such a hectic environment with thousands of people every day, 559 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: I was walking to work through the botanical gardens or 560 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: riding my pushbick for three k's like such a beautiful 561 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: way to start and finish a day. And so all 562 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I had this time. And because I 563 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: had this time and this space and this better connection 564 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: with myself, I was given to the universe or my 565 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: higher self for what I was meant to do. And 566 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: I guess the only way and this might sound totally 567 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: real crazy to people, but like the only way I 568 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: can describe it, and I remember the moment so crystal clear, 569 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: is that I was walking home through the botanical gardens 570 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: and the idea for the healthy hustlers literally hit me 571 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: like a download from the universe. It was like something 572 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: just dropped from the sky into my head. I knew 573 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: the name, I knew the concept, I knew how it 574 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: would make money. Who would interview? And I literally went 575 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: home and I put together a proposal and I sent 576 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: it to a friend to see if she wanted to 577 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: co Who's host it with me? And yeah, that's kind 578 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: of how the Healthy Hustles was born. And then from 579 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: there it was just just removing those limiting beliefs that 580 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: I wasn't smart enough or you know, strong enough to 581 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: do this, and it was just about me then mastering 582 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: my mind. I knew the idea was good, I knew that, 583 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: I knew that I was capable. I just had to 584 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: remove those limiting beliefs and a lot of that just 585 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: came down to action. So actually taking that action. 586 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 2: Oh my god, so many good nuggets that you just said. 587 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 2: And it's just like mad, it's such an inspirational story. 588 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 2: Like every time you tell it, I just sit there like, oh. 589 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 3: My god, because no, it is because and this. 590 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 2: Is something I say all the time too, like and 591 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 2: don't get me wrong when I say this, but like, 592 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: you know, you're not special. 593 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 3: I'm not special. 594 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 2: We just, like you said, you have the whole process 595 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 2: about making space and then you know this idea coming 596 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 2: up and you know, taking bold action and all that 597 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 2: sort of thing. And I am the exact same. Like 598 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,479 Speaker 2: when I quit my corporate job, I had nothing. I 599 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 2: had nothing lined up, nothing ready, but I knew I 600 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 2: needed space to find that out and that was a 601 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 2: scary step. Like I think we can both be like, 602 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 2: holy crip, holy crap. When you work hard for something, 603 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 2: can you know you climb that corporate ladder or you 604 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 2: you know, have that degree and stuff, and then you 605 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: completely turn your back and do something else, it's like, yes, 606 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 2: completely out of your comfort zone. But also now looking back, 607 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 2: we're like, wow, imagine if we didn't do that. 608 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: It's so true. And I guess you know, And this 609 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: is for anyone that's feeling the same, is like I 610 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 1: always had this inner knowing that I was here for 611 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,239 Speaker 1: something more. Like I always I loved my job, I 612 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: loved my career. I always showed up to the best 613 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: of my ability, but I always knew there was something more. 614 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: And I think the more faith that I had that 615 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: would show up when I was ready, when I had 616 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: the space in my life to give it my absolute 617 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: best and to make it work, it would. And so 618 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: anyone that's kind of sitting there thinking, you know, I 619 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: know I'm here for something more or there's something greater 620 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 1: for me, Like trust that trust that there is, and 621 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: trust that you are exactly where you were meant to 622 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: be right now. Like I can honestly tell you that 623 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: every single job, even the like you know, hospitality jobs 624 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: that I did for twenty dollars an hour, like something 625 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: that gave me something, there was a reason why I 626 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: was there, if it was for a communication skill that 627 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: I developed, or a contact that I might have made, 628 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: whatever it was. Like, wherever you are right now, you 629 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: are there for a reason, and you might not realize 630 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: it right now. But I think the best advice I 631 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: can give someone is just appreciate it. And one of 632 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: the things I'm really I think that I've learned on 633 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: this short journey of mine, but one of the greatest 634 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: lessons is that our previous self wanted to be where 635 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: you are right now once upon a time. So you know, 636 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: I'm really honoring that at the moment. Like my new 637 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: season of motherhood and trying to juggle a business that 638 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: I'm so passionate about is the toughest season I've ever had, 639 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: and it's a really emotional, and it's kind of stripped 640 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: me so far from who I was. But I'm reminding 641 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: myself that once upon a time, like younger Maddie, all 642 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: she wanted was to have a business that she was 643 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: passionate about, to be married to Ryan, and to have 644 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: a beautiful baby girl. And I've got all of those 645 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: things right now, So I'm learning to be so grateful 646 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: and appreciate them day in day out. Like no one 647 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: ever says it's going to be easy, and no one 648 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 1: ever says it's always going to be fun. But the 649 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: more that you can appreciate where you are right now, 650 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: I promise it makes the rest so much more better, 651 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: Like so much, it's more amazing because you were just 652 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,879 Speaker 1: so filled with gratitude each and every day that you were, 653 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: you were living what you desired. 654 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 2: Yes, gratitude is so so important, And I think also 655 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 2: that's I'm glad you touched on that, because that's such 656 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 2: a great point of you know, like it's okay to 657 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: want more and it's okay like that is not selfish 658 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 2: like something. Again, I'm going to keep talking about my 659 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 2: rise and Conker project, and it's just. 660 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,320 Speaker 1: Because I've got so you should go it's amazing. 661 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 2: Talking to like everyone about it so like, and that's 662 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 2: like the whole thing is like someone will DM me 663 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 2: and they will be like, you know, like I do 664 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 2: feel like I, you know, want something more blah blah blah, 665 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 2: and they almost feel guilty for it, and I'm like, no, 666 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 2: that is like it is never selfish for wanting more. 667 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 2: Never feel guilty that one hundred percent. Like you said, Mads, 668 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 2: it's put on your heart for a reason and you 669 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 2: need to trust that. It's only when you ignore it. 670 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,879 Speaker 2: It's like that's when you get out of alignment. As 671 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 2: long as you are listening to your heart, listening to 672 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 2: your intuition, that is like you know everything's going to 673 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,240 Speaker 2: be okay. And I also love what you said about 674 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 2: you know, all your different jobs and like everything needing 675 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 2: to happen exactly as it did. Oh my god, one 676 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,720 Speaker 2: hundred and ten percent. And it's like, yeah, being grateful 677 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 2: for everything that has happened, because if you can't be 678 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 2: you know, grateful and happy now with what you have, 679 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 2: you literally never will. 680 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: Amen. That is honestly like so important, isn't it. And 681 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, we both know that like the 682 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 1: more that you get it does. If you're not happy 683 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 1: within and you're not content, other things filling out your 684 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 1: world aren't going to make you happy. They might for 685 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 1: a short period of time, but if you're not completely 686 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,919 Speaker 1: happy and content within, then how can you expect other 687 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: external feelers to fill that void? 688 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 2: One hundred one hundred and ten percent. And even this 689 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 2: is kind of a bit left field, but I just 690 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 2: it just kind of popped into my brain then. But 691 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 2: it's almost like even with the whole you know, going 692 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 2: after what you want and taking bold action and following 693 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,760 Speaker 2: those desires. I again said this to someone in DMS, 694 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,400 Speaker 2: is like, if you can't bet on yourself and you 695 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 2: can't bet on your desires, it's like, how can you 696 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 2: expect other people to That was. 697 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 1: Such a huge takeaway for me from your pot your 698 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,800 Speaker 1: last podcast episode, which was about investing in yourself. I 699 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: messaged you after it and I was just like, you 700 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 1: are a boss, Like I loved that episode. Your podcast 701 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,359 Speaker 1: is the only podcast I ever listened to. Everything you say. 702 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: I just sit there going yes, yes, oh my God, 703 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 1: like listen to why You're My Girl. But that was 704 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: such a huge takeaway for me because it is it's 705 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 1: so true, like if you. If you can't bet on yourself, 706 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 1: how can you expect everyone else to? And it's the 707 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: same with happiness, like if you can't make yourself be 708 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 1: happy or be happy with you, and how can you 709 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: expect other people to do that for you? 710 00:37:59,640 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 3: Yeah? 711 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 2: Exactly. I just love talking to you. 712 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 3: I feel like we're almost like the same person. 713 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: Hey, it's so true. 714 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 2: You say something and I'm like, yes, I resonate and this, 715 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 2: and then I say something and this. 716 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: Is my. 717 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, no you go yeah. I was just going to say, 718 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 2: that's how podcast events like. I remember the whole time, 719 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 2: me just going, oh my god, I resonate. 720 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: It's true. We literally are we the same person. You're 721 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: just a much younger, wise version of me. I always 722 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 1: am like, I don't know how you're so wise for 723 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: your age. It's amazing. You're such a huge inspiration. 724 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 2: Oh stop it, I'm lich. I'm so I'm definitely an 725 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:42,720 Speaker 2: old soul. 726 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 3: Hey, I'm in a young. 727 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: Body, definitely, diferently. 728 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 3: In saying that. 729 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 2: When I got my palm and like cards read, the 730 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 2: lady did say I was a new soul. She's like, 731 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 2: you haven't been here many times. 732 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:00,720 Speaker 3: I am sure. 733 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 1: I think with you that and this is It's something 734 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: I talk about a lot, but I think with you 735 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: is that you have awareness. And I think a lot 736 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: of this stuff, like our mindset, our health, all of 737 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 1: that comes down like is a starting point of being 738 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 1: aware if it's aware of your body and triggers with 739 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: your body, aware of what makes you feel good versus 740 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: what makes you feel bad. Even it literally is an example, 741 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: but when you said, when you recognize it you're in 742 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: a funk and you go and put the music on, Like, 743 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: that's the awareness. You're so aware of what makes you 744 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 1: feel good versus bad, what's serving you, what's not. And 745 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,240 Speaker 1: I think that that is such a key starting point 746 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: to this whole mindset, health journey and obsession really is, 747 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: because once that awareness is there, it's like you just 748 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: want to keep bettering yourself. You want to keep learning, 749 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,799 Speaker 1: you want to keep growing and expanding, and as a 750 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 1: result of that, you also want to start sharing and 751 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: to help everyone else around you feel the same. So 752 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: I think that that's that's just my take on you. 753 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 2: That is actually so insightful, and I actually kind of 754 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 2: agree because I agree. I agree in the way of 755 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 2: when you think about like, like you know your I 756 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 2: know you know, about like limiting beliefs. When I'm talking 757 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 2: to anyone about limiting beliefs, literally the first thing I'm like, 758 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 2: it's fine, because you know, they're like, oh, I've got 759 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 2: this limiting belief and I'm like the fact that you 760 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 2: are aware of it is literally like it's going to 761 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 2: be fine, because so many people don't even have like 762 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 2: that first initial awareness because if you think about it, 763 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 2: if you're aware of it, you can change it, Whereas 764 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 2: if you're never aware of it and it's just constantly 765 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 2: like in your subconscious, it's. 766 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 3: Hard to pick up. 767 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 2: So I appreciate that's actually such a compliment to me 768 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 2: because I do kind of pride myself on trying to 769 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 2: be very like aware of myself and others. 770 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I think it's too beautiful quality in you know, 771 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: and I you know, I hope you don't mind me 772 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: touching on limiting beliefs. But for anyone, I guess they 773 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: were listening to that and being like, oh my goodness, 774 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't even be aware of, you know, my limiting beliefs, 775 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 1: or I do want to add that, like I feel 776 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: like I have been One thing I always try to 777 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: do is check in on my privilege. And from that, 778 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I had a very ideally childhood. 779 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: I have a very privileged life in terms of my circumstances. 780 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 1: And I don't mean I get handouts or anything like that, 781 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: but you know, I grew up in a family with 782 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 1: two parents that are still married, that both had businesses. 783 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 1: I lived in the same home till when I was 784 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 1: eighteen and moved to Melbourne for university. Like, they're things 785 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 1: that I constantly check in with and realize that they 786 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,120 Speaker 1: are very privileged situations to be in and to be 787 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: raised in. And I had a mum who raised me 788 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: a very confident person, So you know, she used to 789 00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: think say things to me like as a limit baby, 790 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 1: or the world's your oyster. And I know they might 791 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,839 Speaker 1: just sound cliche things, but when you're hearing them as 792 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: a young girl the whole way through your childhood, like 793 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 1: you totally believe them. Like I always had an inner 794 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 1: belief that, like I could do whatever I wanted, and 795 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: I think it came from a place of unconditional love 796 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,279 Speaker 1: as well. I was never scared of failing because I 797 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: knew that my parents didn't really care if I failed. 798 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: It was just have a go at it and if 799 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: you're good, awesome, like if you don't, well, what's the 800 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: worst you've had a crack? So I do try to 801 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: often check in with that and remind myself that like 802 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 1: that is a very privileged upbringing to have, and a 803 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: lot of those things are second nature to me. So, 804 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,879 Speaker 1: you know, then the awareness of my limiting beliefs were 805 00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 1: there because they'd never been there before. You know, not 806 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: thinking that I was smart enough hadn't been there until 807 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: I went to high school. You know, thinking that I 808 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: wasn't capable didn't exist until my lady years at cotton 809 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: On where I was having my sparkle dult, So I 810 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 1: could be aware of those things quite quickly because it 811 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 1: didn't feel true to me anymore. So I just want 812 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: to give anyone, I guess I hope it gives a 813 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 1: bit of confidence, or I don't want anyone to be 814 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 1: sitting there being like, oh my goodness, like I'm not 815 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: even aware of this.

I remember laughing in 884 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 1: your podcast when you said you always butcher quotes because 885 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 1: I always butcher them as well. Basically, the concept of 886 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: the quote was that motherhood will strip you so far 887 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 1: from the person you once were, but it will put 888 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 1: you back together as a person that you're meant to be. 889 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 1: And I think for me, I'm finding so much comfort 890 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,399 Speaker 1: in that right now and trusting that that is right, 891 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 1: because I think it has completely stripped me of who 892 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: I was, but not in a bad way, like, not 893 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 1: in a way that scares me or makes me sad. 894 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 1: It's just to that I feel like a completely different 895 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 1: matter is being born, and I feel, I trust that 896 00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: it's going to bring me to a more aligned and 897 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: truer version of myself. And I feel like, or I 898 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 1: know that I am exactly where I'm meant to be. 899 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: But I think motherhood is one of those things that 900 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 1: you could just you could never ever prepare yourself for, 901 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, from even just from growing a child to 902 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 1: then birthing a child, and you go straight into breastfeeding 903 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 1: and waking up four times a night to feed the baby, 904 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 1: and it's just this pure exhaustion that you've never ever 905 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 1: ever felt before, which obviously brings about a lot of 906 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:45,399 Speaker 1: emotions and a lot of new feelings and experiences. And 907 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 1: you know, there's definitely been for me a lot of 908 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 1: grief in missing my old life because I am quite 909 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 1: career driven, and I think at the point where I 910 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: had Georgia, I was probably at my ultimate best. I was, 911 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 1: you know, we were two weeks out from doing our events. 912 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: Like I've never felt more aligned or on the path 913 00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: that I meant to be on, So it kind of 914 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 1: stooped me straight back, and then we went into lockdown. 915 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:14,240 Speaker 1: So to be completely honest, I'm still trying to piece 916 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 1: it all together. I think I'm really trying to honor 917 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: my season of motherhood as best as I can. I'm 918 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 1: still really learning to surrender to it and to show 919 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 1: up as the mum that I know I'm capable of being. 920 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 1: You know, I think some days I'm so fixated on 921 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,200 Speaker 1: what I want to be doing, what I want to 922 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 1: be striving to do, But then I have to take 923 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: a step back and remind myself that this is where 924 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: I am, and this is where I've always wanted to be, 925 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: and so to be present in those moments. And I 926 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,920 Speaker 1: think sometimes the days everyone just says to you, I'll 927 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 1: go so fast, but like, you know, it feels like 928 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 1: it's been my whole life already, and not in a 929 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,279 Speaker 1: bad way, just that like it doesn't feel fast right now, 930 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: but I know in five years time to look back 931 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 1: and be like, my baby girl's going to school, Like 932 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 1: where the hell did that time go? So I just 933 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 1: keep trying to like visualize my future self and be like, 934 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 1: she will be sad that she wasn't present enough in 935 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 1: these days. So just like honor this, do what you 936 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,280 Speaker 1: need to do, like show up as best as you can. 937 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: But I'm also being kind to myself around that, and 938 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 1: I think as any mum's listening is, I try to 939 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,239 Speaker 1: remind myself that I'm not always going to have it right. 940 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: I'm not ever going to be close to perfect. But 941 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:35,759 Speaker 1: Georgia chose me for a reason, and there's lessons and 942 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 1: experiences that she needs in this lifetime that I'm going 943 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 1: to teach her that will help her be the person 944 00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:45,839 Speaker 1: she needs to be in this lifetime. And so every 945 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 1: time that I feel guilty for not being there enough, 946 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 1: or for not being present enough, or for not showing 947 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,880 Speaker 1: up enough, I just remind myself that it's okay, you 948 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 1: can do better tomorrow, and She's chosen you for a reason. 949 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:04,799 Speaker 2: Oh, Matt's I'm literally like getting a bit of emotional 950 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, that is just like the most like 951 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:14,359 Speaker 2: what you said about how Georgia chose you and like 952 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 2: you were like, you know, meant to bring her these 953 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 2: experiences and show up for her and all that sort 954 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:23,319 Speaker 2: of stuff is like literally the most beautiful thing I've 955 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:25,919 Speaker 2: ever heard.

But how do you 995 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 2: kind of juggle the whole, you know, making sure you're 996 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,800 Speaker 2: present with Georgia and looking after her and her needs. 997 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 2: Also make sure you're looking after yourself and your needs, 998 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,879 Speaker 2: plus striving you know, to have your business and keep 999 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,879 Speaker 2: doing that and keep working towards your goals. Like what 1000 00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 2: advice would you have for other mothers out there? 1001 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 1: To be honest, like, I'm I'm really trying to figure 1002 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: that out right now, Like I really am. I think 1003 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 1: I'm I think when you can find moments in the chaos, 1004 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 1: like make those moments calm and figure out what's not 1005 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 1: serving you. Like for me, a big piece of the 1006 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:16,719 Speaker 1: pie is not being organized that's in our home in 1007 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,760 Speaker 1: life in general, Like, not being organized is not serving 1008 00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 1: me right now. And so a huge focus in George's 1009 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 1: naps is like, you know, I just cleaned out our 1010 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 1: pantry for example, on Sundays, I'm scheduling time to like 1011 00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 1: food prep. I'm using her naps to yet clean out 1012 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: cupboards and prep our dinner. You know. Bringing finding those 1013 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:40,360 Speaker 1: moments to just figure out what's not allowing you to 1014 00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:42,919 Speaker 1: show up as the best version of yourself, I think 1015 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 1: is really important but like I don't get that all right. 1016 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:48,799 Speaker 1: Like there's days where I literally, in her nap will 1017 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 1: sit on the couch on my phone on Instagram because 1018 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,799 Speaker 1: I just need a moment to myself to like not 1019 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:57,600 Speaker 1: even think, you know, like I'm definitely not there, but 1020 00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 1: I think surrounding yourself with other mothers who are aspirational 1021 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 1: as well. You know, my Instagram now, I do make 1022 00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 1: sure is filled with nurturing mothers who I feel connected with. 1023 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 1: There's so many different types of I guess parenting, or 1024 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 1: ways of looking at things and not getting caught up 1025 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,760 Speaker 1: in what's right or wrong and knowing that there's actually 1026 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,440 Speaker 1: no rules, there's no rule book, there's no one way. 1027 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,520 Speaker 1: It's been a really big piece for me as a 1028 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:31,800 Speaker 1: mum who has I guess more trusted her maternal instincts, 1029 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:35,240 Speaker 1: and I try to really harness inner, my inner maternal 1030 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 1: instincts and my inner knowing rather than jumping to a 1031 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: book or Google. And yes, those things are great if 1032 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,160 Speaker 1: you need them, and I'm not saying not to do that, 1033 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 1: but that's the type of mum that I'm starting to 1034 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:51,759 Speaker 1: be or feeling the most confident in. So I'm surrounding 1035 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 1: myself online and in conversations with other mothers that are 1036 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 1: the same and that have those similar values. So I 1037 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:01,280 Speaker 1: think there's so many people out there who are always 1038 00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 1: willing to support you and to give you advice. So 1039 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:09,000 Speaker 1: just be open to that and just know, like seriously, 1040 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,479 Speaker 1: just know that you are doing a freaking awesome job. 1041 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 1: Like if you're a mum, you're killing it. Just trust me. 1042 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,280 Speaker 1: Just know that you are killing it, like you're raising 1043 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,399 Speaker 1: a human being. Like that is freaking awesome. That's all 1044 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 1: you need to worry about. 1045 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,760 Speaker 2: I absolutely love that.
