00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:09.000
There are some people that make their
work just another thing they have to do,

2
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:12.640
and there are those that make their
work something that they want to do.

3
00:00:13.359 --> 00:00:18.839
Welcome to Working on Purpose with your
host Elise Cortes. In our program,

4
00:00:18.879 --> 00:00:23.719
we provide guidance and inspiration from those
people who have found deeper meaning and

5
00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:28.920
personal connection to their work life.
It's beyond nine to five, it's working

6
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:35.000
on Purpose. Now Here is your
host, Elise Cortes. Thanks for tuning

7
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.880
in again this week. I'm your
host, Elise Cortez, joining you from

8
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:41.039
Dallas, Texas, which is home
base for me. This program is all

9
00:00:41.039 --> 00:00:44.960
about helping people more meaningfully and productively
connect with their work and equipping leaders and

10
00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:49.079
organizations to cultivate meaning and purpose in
the workplaces. I bring on guests from

11
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:53.079
a particular perspective or experience that I
think expands this conversation, and as a

12
00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:56.399
management consultant and social scientist, I
draw on the meaning and work research I've

13
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.880
been doing over the last fifteen years, as well as my own experience consul

14
00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:03.599
speaking and developing workforces across the globe. Last week, if you missed a

15
00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:07.640
show live, you can always catch
it be recorded podcast. We were on

16
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:10.400
the air with Zach mccurio. He
is one of the leading voices on the

17
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:12.959
role of purpose and meaning in organizations, work, and life. He is

18
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:18.319
the author of The Invisible Leader,
Transform your life, work, and organization

19
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:22.359
with the power of Authentic Purpose.
We talked about why purpose is so important

20
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:26.239
in the world today, how leaders
can create meaningful environments, and some examples

21
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:30.599
of how companies are infusing their cultures
with purpose while delighting the bottom line results

22
00:01:30.599 --> 00:01:34.879
of their business. With us this
week is doctor Joy Martina, a psychic

23
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:38.920
psychologist and a channeler of Crystaline consciousness, specializing in high level intuitive intelligence training

24

our innate psychic abilities, and she's
a master hypnotist and trainer of trainers.

27
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:57.680
Her new Amazon bestseller is called Five
Steps to Strengthen Your Intuition, and it

28
00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:00.760
gives everyone the education insight that was
for only given only to masters. We'll

29
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:05.560
be talking about what intuition actually is, how we can develop it in ourselves,

30
00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:07.959
in ways we can apply it in
our work to make a real difference

31
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.400
to what we're out to accomplish.
Joy joins us today from Ashville, North

32
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:15.479
Carolina. Joy, welcome to working
on Purpose. He think good to be

33
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:17.719
here. It isn't it fun?
It's about time we did this right.

34
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:22.319
We've known each other for over a
year now it's about time it is.

35
00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:24.680
We just needed to celebrate with your
book. That's all. Thank you.

36
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:30.520
And you know the book is called
how to Use Your Intuition to Change Your

37
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:34.759
Life, and in there I share
the five steps to strengthen your intuition.

38
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:38.319
Just okay, okay, anybody wants
to rush out there right now and get

39
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:40.560
it, do it. But it's
called how to Use your Intuition to Change

40
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:43.639
your Life. I love it.
Okay, got it. I'm going to

41
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:46.840
write that down. Okay, all
right, Well now speaking of that,

42
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:51.280
you know, here you are.
This is a woman listeners who gallivants gallivans

43
00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:53.759
all over the globe, and she
does training and coaching and all kinds of

44
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:59.080
other amazing things. And yet you
somehow still manage joy to find time to

45
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:01.000
scratch out this book book. So
where did the book come from? And

46
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:05.879
why did you write it? Well, the booking itself was such a blessing

47
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:10.120
because I literally speed wrote it.
I created and birthed that book in six

48
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:15.439
weeks. And I've written a few
books before, but I've never had an

49
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:19.960
experience like that, because I felt
so cooled by my intuition to really just

50
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:23.360
write it down and get it out
there. And it made me focus like

51
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:29.199
never before and create what I believe
really does deserve that status of the best

52
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:32.919
seller. And I am just so
mind blown by the feedback I'm getting from

53
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:37.159
people who are saying, you know, I'm using these five steps and oh

54
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:39.120
my goodness, the changes that are
happening. So that really excites me.

55
00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:43.400
I'm so glad to hear that.
Right. Don't we all want to matter,

56
00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:45.560
We want to make a difference to
the work that we do. And

57
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:47.000
I love that you're getting that feedback
already out of the gate. I'm not

58
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:52.520
surprised. And I wanted to share
this with our listeners in part because frankly,

59
00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:54.080
I want to learn too. Joy
So every time I get somebody on

60
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:58.879
the air with me each week,
I learned something, So first first me

61
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:00.080
and the we get to share it
with the listener. How's that? I

62
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:04.280
love so to start us of if
you're one of the things that I just

63
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:08.439
thought was really interesting the way you
situated your book, Joy is I like

64
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.800
that you know you're right by talking
about you know, one way we gather

65
00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:15.960
information about the world is through our
five scents, our senses, you know,

66
00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:18.439
we take in our surroundings. We
collect information from our experiences by what

67
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:23.600
we see here, field based in
touch. You talk about that, and

68
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:27.040
then you say, if we only
rely in those five senses, you know,

69
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.720
what we take in is very limited. And so I want you to

70
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:32.560
comment a little bit about that,
because I think that's really interesting for people

71
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:36.480
that feel like, you know,
they've been given this is how we know,

72
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:42.079
this is all we know. Well, I think to tap back into

73
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:46.720
these ways that we gather information.
We have two primary ways of doing that,

74
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:51.680
and one is sensing and that five
senses that we used to using,

75
00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:58.040
and the other huge pot is something
called intuition. So when we are shutting

76
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:03.399
down this valuable tool, this intelligence
inside of us, we're shutting down a

77
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:09.279
huge part of ourselves. And the
reason why I really felt that urgency to

78
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:14.040
birth this book so quickly and spread
my message in this big way is because

79
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:16.040
if we look at the world of
what's going on right now, we have

80
00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:21.360
a real crisis we have for the
first time the Harris Pole Index telling us

81
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:27.040
that for the first time in ten
years, Americans are less happy than before,

82
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:31.639
and only thirty three percent of all
Americans actually say they're happy. That's

83
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:34.800
that I feel, you know,
we need to do something, And I

84
00:05:34.879 --> 00:05:41.240
say, we cannot feel happiness when
we're not tuned into our intuition because we're

85
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:46.279
not able to deal with this information
overload that we're dealing with right now.

86
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:50.879
Right just twenty five years ago,
we were dealing with two million bits,

87
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:57.480
so two million pieces of information coming
at us every single second. Now twenty

88
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:02.639
five years later, we have over
five times that we have eleven million pieces

89
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:08.439
of information coming at us at the
whole time. So we have to make

90
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:13.399
snap judgments of what is important,
what do I let in, what is

91
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:16.120
the right thing to do? How
do I make quick decisions? And so

92
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:21.519
many of us are feeling totally overwhelmed. And that's why these depression rates and

93
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:28.519
the rates, and the horrifying amount
of psychophabic medicines that have been sold over

94
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:32.399
the counter. Have I believe the
route right there that we need to learn

95
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:38.839
how to tune back into our intuition, into that highest intelligence to make wise

96
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:45.160
choices. That is such a compelling
argument, and I'm completely with you,

97
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:47.439
Joe, And of course, from
my vantage point right I'm out to awaken

98
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:51.720
the eighty five percent of the world
who's not engaged or committed to their work

99
00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:57.439
or enjoying it. So we're up
to some similar stuff and there's some alignment

100
00:06:57.519 --> 00:07:01.439
with what you're talking about. I
love you right now. For those of

101
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:04.079
us who are a little bit new
to so ide of intuition, I do

102
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:09.639
have a stronger in over the stravirus
bridge, but Brig Briggs, but I

103
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:14.319
don't really know that I could articulate
what intuition actually is as a form of

104
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:17.480
intelligence. And you see, that
is something I think we all face because

105
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:21.959
there's so many myths about this intuition
thing. We might think it's a gut

106
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:27.439
feeling. Then we hear other message
of messages like follow your heart. So

107
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:32.519
what is intuition? I say intuition
is the highest form of intelligence. And

108
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:38.800
not only I say that, but
people like Forbes Magazine, Albert Einstein,

109
00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:44.560
Steve Jobs saw that intuition is something
that connects us to a higher form of

110
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:49.000
intelligence than just this little human brain. So the conscious mind, that linear

111
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:53.879
processor that we usually connect to.

00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:35.600
make sure I get this right this
time. How to change your life.

130
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.559

00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:43.080
use your intuition to change your life? All right, We're going to get

132
00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:45.960
this right. So, all right, this is important. People are going

133
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:46.519
to order this book. We got
to get it. We got to say

134
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:50.600
it right. So let's come back
a little bit there. You were talking

135
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.879
about how other people like Steve Jobs
and Forbes say that intuition is the highest

136
00:09:54.879 --> 00:10:00.840
form of intelligence. And the other
thing that I found really int interesting about

137
00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.600
that, I wanted to ask you
a little bit more about how you define

138
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:07.720
that. So would you say a
bit more about how do we describe intuition?

139
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:11.960
Well, apart from going back to
seeing it as that highest form of

140
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:16.720
intelligence, I think we need to
go back to how our brain is structured.

141
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:20.159
So we have a conscious mind,
which is kind of like a linear

142
00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:26.039
processor which can handle around one hundred
and twenty six pieces of information per second.

143
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:28.840
Right, Remember we have eleven million
pieces coming at us, and one

144
00:10:28.919 --> 00:10:33.039
hundred and twenty six, no millions, is what our conscious mind can handle.

145
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:37.120
But we have in our brain something
way more exciting, and that is

146
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:43.159
the unconscious mind. And that unconscious
mind is not a linear processor, but

147
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:50.240
a multi functional, multilinear processor that
can handle way more information. So that

148
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:54.080
is what we need to learn to
create rapport with with that unconscious mind,

149
00:10:54.159 --> 00:11:00.080
so we can actually hear intuition because
we all have intuition, we just some

150
00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:05.000
times are not able to hear it
because we're so tuned into the outside of

151
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:07.519
what's going on around us, all
that buzz, right, all those eleven

152
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:13.480
million pieces of information, and have
not learned how to tune into ourselves.

153
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:16.399
And that's step one in what I
teach, get out of that buzz and

154
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.519
tune into yourself. And I show
in my book tools of how to do

155
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:24.440
that. And I want to talk
about those steps more detail and a little

156
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:28.240
bit later here, but I just
I am so interested in what you just

157
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:33.559
said about building that rapport with our
unconscious that's very interesting and really refreshing to

158
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:39.679
think about. I just it's compelling, it's awesome. The other thing that

159
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:41.960
you mentioned a little bit in your
book, if I remember it right,

160
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:46.960
is that you distinguish intuition from purpose. Of course, I've paid attention to

161
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.879
that part since my space. What
do you mean by that? Well,

162
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:56.960
what I mean by that is that
our intuition guide just towards our purpose.

163
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:01.759
Intuition is tuned into why we came
onto this planet, why we want to

164
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:07.639
learn certain things, and wants to
guide us closer and closer to our purpose.

165
00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:11.159
But we so often get tangled up
into our experience of life and the

166
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:15.639
emotions that we feel. Then,
all the stories that we tell ourselves,

167
00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:20.399
all the resentment we sometimes hold on
to, and that can then become the

168
00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:24.440
main buzz of our life that guides
us instead of the voice of intuition,

169
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:30.960
which would guide us so graciously towards
our purpose if only we listened, You

170
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:35.919
would say that so unlovely. Yes, there's this thing called listening. Yes.

171
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:39.240
Well, the other thing that I
wanted to do, because I think

172
00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:41.000
this is interesting, and you sort
of broach it a bit in your book,

173
00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:45.399
is you know, I want a
presence a few pretty famous people that

174
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:50.919
are pretty well known for being high
in intuition. Because we reveer these people,

175
00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:52.440
we look up to them, and
if we're not yet convinced that maybe

176
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.159
it's not a bad idea to work
on our intuition, this might help.

177
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:01.240
So people that you mentioned in the
book are President Obama, Mark Zuckerberg,

178
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:05.279
Einstein, Elon Musk, and they
all score high in intuition. How do

179
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:09.840
you drink? Women too? We
are are they? We have Oprah Winfrey,

180
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:16.039
we have Hillary Clinton, we have
a few amazing actresses. So when

181
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:20.080
you start diving into the Maya Briggs
personality tests, which I did in research

182
00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:24.519
for this book, I was amazed
how many cool people score high on Maya

183
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:31.320
Briggs as highly intuitive people. So, and thank you so much for bringing

184
00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:33.320
in the women thing. That would
have probably any fifty percent of our listeners.

185
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:37.360
And I didn't certainly mean to do
that. Thank you. But how

186
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:41.159
do you think they use their intuition
so effectively? Maybe just an example or

187
00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:45.960
so well, I'd say the biggest
part of being intuitive, where it comes

188
00:13:45.960 --> 00:13:48.919
in handy is when you make decisions, and don't we If we look at

189
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:54.639
successful people, then we will find
a pattern of them being able to make

190
00:13:54.720 --> 00:14:00.159
decisions quickly. And wisely do they
make mistakes, Yeah, but they will

191
00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:05.600
quickly make another decision to correct that
when they're tuned into their intuition because they

192
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:07.480
know, oh, this doesn't feel
right. Ooh this doesn't sound right,

193
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:11.759
let's course correct. When we're not
tuned into our intuition, we might feel

194
00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:18.159
that we're fighting windmills because we're using
willpower. We're kind of forcing things rather

195
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:22.279
than allowing intuition to guide us.
So I think decision making is something where

196
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:28.039
intuition not only guides us, but
can become that clear guiding force that just

197
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:33.639
gives us that clear confidence and that
unshakeable faith of saying, Okay, whatever

198
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:37.000
the circumstance is, this is what
I need to do right now, and

199
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.840
I trust that. And then we
create a certain amount of peace and confidence

200
00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:46.279
within us because we're flexing that faith
muscle, and we're not going down the

201
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:52.720
spiral of self doubt and judgment and
you know, going into dreams of depression

202
00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:56.840
honestly because we're no longer trusting that
we know what's right for us. Well,

203
00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:00.799
now, speaking of the decisions that
you to talk about, you have

204
00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:05.679
a fantastic example in your book that
I thought was so compelling about the Formula

205
00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:09.000
one race car driver one funds you
I think is a name, and you

206
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:11.879
talk about how he's going into a
hairpin turn when he suddenly hits the brakes

207
00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:16.799
without knowing why. And then that
afternoon he wins the Monico Grand Prix,

208
00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:22.240
and were it not for this seemingly
inexplicable slowdown, he would have slammed into

209
00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:28.120
a pop of crashed cars that he
couldn't have necessarily seen immediately. But so

210
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:33.080
you have it's interesting how you kind
of put that together and explain perhaps what

211
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:35.519
was going on for him. Will
you say a bit more about that,

212
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:43.320
Yeah, I'd love to. So
he was really researched in a kind of

213
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:48.159
very intristic way after this whole incident, and psychologists really looked at his eye

214
00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:52.000
movements. They had all the videos, say, you know, these racing

215
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:56.879
car drivers are hooked up to all
kinds of instruments, and they kind of

216
00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:00.919
tried to find out what happened.
How did he know? And he,

217
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:04.759
in his conscious mind then watching the
videos, saw that oh he had seen

218
00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:10.320
in some way in his peripheral vision
that the crowd was not looking at the

219
00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:14.799
racing car drivers but was looking ahead. So away from him, and that

220
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:18.559
was kind of off, but he
could not have consciously taken that in in

221
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.879
that moment. So what it shows
to me is that the unconscious mind,

222
00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:29.440
intuition was guiding him, and because
he was so focused, so tuned in

223
00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:33.679
in that moment, he'd just he
had no hesitation, there was no second

224
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.039
of doubt. He just slammed the
brakes on. And what it shows is

225
00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:41.840
that when we allow intuition to guide
us, intuition will be way quicker in

226
00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:45.960
not only saving our life, but
showing us that you know that there is

227
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:49.799
only a hell yes or a hell
no. Honestly, there's not much in

228
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.720
between. And I say that in
my book. I think we spend so

229
00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:59.159
much time in that maybe zone where
we know if a person is right for

230
00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:02.440
us or not, whether we should
hire someone, if we should fire someone

231
00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:06.960
we know, but we're often so
caught up in fear and doubt of I

232
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:10.640
don't know, how will that person
reject me, Maybe they wouldn't love me,

233
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:12.960
maybe I can't please everyone. You
know, all that stuff right,

234
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.640
that we don't listen to intuition and
we're not able to access that courage of

235
00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:22.079
following like that and saying I just
know this is right. And I'm not

236
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.359
saying that we need to I don't
know, become relentless people walking over everybody

237
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:30.200
else's needs. Not at all.
I say when you listen to intuition,

238
00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:36.920
you usually find out the intuition is
guiding you towards becoming a more loving person,

239
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:42.279
a wiser person, and not an
egotistical, selfish bitch. Okay,

240
00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:48.000
technical term, Okay, Okay,
So here's what this is. This is

241
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:51.400
just a great conversation. I think
this is fascinating, very important work.

242
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:53.559
You've been up to, Joy,
and you and I both work in the

243
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:59.200
field. We're developing people, We're
working for people to become their higher self

244
00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:03.119
and so so I am certain there
are people right now listening to this going

245
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:06.880
uh oh. I know, my
Myers Briggs, I'm a heavy heavy s

246
00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:11.079
oh oh. But you say in
your book that we need both the N

247
00:18:11.119 --> 00:18:12.640
and the S to navigate our world. So would you. I want to

248
00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:15.519
make sure that the people that are
out there with that heavy snick one they

249
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:18.440
know that we're going to give them
something else in a second or how then

250
00:18:18.559 --> 00:18:21.759
get more on their in. But
talk to us about why we need both

251
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:26.480
nns. Well, we all have
intuition. Intuition is something that is part

252
00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:33.440
of our intrictic makeup of a human. And I think this whole categorizing,

253
00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:37.279
even Maya Briggs and bless them for
their work, is only a concept that

254
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:41.440
shows what are you using right now? But if we look at the way

255
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.200
that we just take in information,
they'd like to make a lead back to

256
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:51.559
NLP so near a linguistic programming,
we see that we have all these channels.

257
00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:56.079
We have the channels of our auditory
system, of our kinesthetics system,

258
00:18:56.160 --> 00:19:00.319
of our visual system, of our
digital system. So the talk is of

259
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:04.480
our head of factory gustatory. We
have all these channels. But when we

260
00:19:04.640 --> 00:19:11.160
have not learned to use all the
channels and really get information in and then

261
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:15.599
make wise decisions by connecting to our
true selves. Whether we call that intuition

262
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:19.559
or higher guidance or God or our
heart doesn't really matter. Then we unlock

263
00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:25.759
that secret to just creating more manifesting
in a more gracious way and a more

264
00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:30.319
effortless way. Because we're learning our
lessons easily, we're not having to go

265
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:36.400
through that whole pain cycle. And
I think that's what I'm about of teaching

266
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:40.759
people how to tap into their intuition
by just opening up those channels and seeing,

267
00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:45.279
Okay, maybe I don't see stuff, maybe I feel stuff. Maybe

268
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:49.759
I'm more actually listening to my voice. But if I'm trying to listen to

269
00:19:49.799 --> 00:19:53.400
that voice of intuition, but the
intuition is showing me signs in the visual

270
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:56.119
way the whole time, then may
be all I need to do is switch

271
00:19:56.160 --> 00:20:00.599
my channels. So in my trainings, like the R training, we teach

272
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:04.519
thousands of people. That's really exciting, you know, we'd live stream this

273
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:08.720
globally, and we did in three
languages. We teach thousands of people how

274
00:20:08.759 --> 00:20:14.359
to just open up those channels.
And I'm just fascinated every time to see

275
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:18.279
that we have people from all walks
of life. And it doesn't really matter

276
00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:22.279
what category Maya Briggs puts you in. It's more about do you want to

277
00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:26.960
use all parts of your brain?
Do you want to use your whole system

278
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:30.440
as a human just to gather information
and make wise choices. Because I've just

279
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:34.880
seen the people that do seem to
have more success in life and are healthier

280
00:20:34.920 --> 00:20:40.079
and happier and happy. I think
it's a thing we all want to be.

281
00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:42.359
I would agree well, and I
think what you just said there joy

282
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:47.599
is so empowering and encouraging. I
hope that our listeners got the exact same

283
00:20:47.640 --> 00:20:49.400
way that I did. I find
that to be an empowering stance, and

284
00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:53.720
so Instagram that's a big thing that
I stand from too. And So now

285
00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:57.559
that we've heard this and I'm certainly
convinced of for me, I want to

286
00:20:57.559 --> 00:21:00.559
be able to draw more from my
into develop more of it and use it

287
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:06.559
more. I start to think about
our education system. Do you think do

288
00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:11.279
you think we can we can teach
intuition in schools? Oh? You know,

289
00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:15.119
here's a about working with children,
and I've have the blessing to be

290
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:18.640
working with children in some way or
other from an early age on because my

291
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:22.599
mom is a teacher and she runs
still does runs her private school in Salzburg,

292
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:29.279
Austria. Is that children are tapped
into their intuition full blown. When

293
00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:33.319
babies are born, they are in
a delta brainwave state until they're two years

294
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:36.440
old. You and I alas,
we couldn't even stay awake in delta.

295
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:41.279
Then from the age two to seven
they're in theater, theto or feta,

296
00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:45.799
whatever language pattern you come from.
It's still a highly relaxed brainwave state.

297
00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:48.319
You and I will get into theater
when we're highly deeply relaxed, like in

298
00:21:48.359 --> 00:21:53.680
meditation. Then from age seven until
they hit puberty, they're still in alpha.

299
00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:57.640
Most of us will still regard that
as meditation when we're in alpha,

300
00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:02.480
because when we're in our busy mind
were inbader in better. Right. So

301
00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:07.559
children are, due to their brain
wave states, naturally tuned into their intuition.

302
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:11.519
But I believe the way they were
teaching them normally globally right now goes

303
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:18.200
against every single science that we know
from how brains work, how we learn

304
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:22.759
easily. We're not treating them in
the way. We're not setting them up

305
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:26.640
for success. For sure. If
I look at how some schools in Russia

306
00:22:26.759 --> 00:22:32.240
teach children and even grown ups how
they can learn new languages in their sleep,

307
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:36.480
and the results they're getting, I'm
wondering, why are we sitting our

308
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:41.559
kids in uncomfortable chairs in classrooms with
front room teaching, making them look through

309
00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:45.880
boring textbooks and believe that's how they're
learning languages, for instance? And why

310
00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:49.839
are we not teaching our children how
to manage their emotions. We're telling them

311
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:53.480
to suppress them. We're not teaching
them how to stay healthy. We're not

312
00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:57.839
teaching them how to feed themselves in
a healthy way. We're not moving them.

313
00:22:59.160 --> 00:23:03.000
We're cutting all creativity out of schools. Well, we're not funding schools

314
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.519
in the way that we should if
we believe in the next generation. So

315
00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:12.920
don't get me started. You know, that really fires me up because I

316
00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:18.720
love working with kids, and I
see what happens when we give kids a

317
00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:26.759
nourishing environment that allows them to preserve
that connection. That was just worth the

318
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.960
price of admission right there, Joy, fantastic, Thank you for sharing that,

319
00:23:32.039 --> 00:23:36.559
And for all those educators listening,
please let's reform education, at least

320
00:23:36.559 --> 00:23:40.799
in the United States. And honestly, in the book Five Steps, I

321
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:44.759
show things you can do with kids. I teach this to kids three year

322
00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:48.079
olds. It takes not even five
minutes to teach. There's no excuse.

323
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:53.680
We really can do this stuff if
we want to. Okay, well,

324
00:23:53.759 --> 00:23:59.200
let's talk about that next. Let's
do this. I always want to make

325
00:23:59.240 --> 00:24:03.000
sure that my lists get something they
can that they can take from the show

326
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:04.759
and put to work for themselves,
to make a difference in their lives and

327
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:08.720
their work. So let's talk about
those five steps just kind of briefly cover

328
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:11.519
them so that the listeners get an
idea of what it is that you've given

329
00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:15.440
to them in this book. So
you already mentioned the first one get out

330
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:17.640
of the buzz, So say a
little bit more about that one again,

331
00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:22.039
if you would please. Well,
that's that's basically about making time just for

332
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:26.680
yourself. If that means just taking
three conscious breaths with your eyes closed,

333
00:24:26.039 --> 00:24:30.240
that's a start. I have a
whole bunch of free resources in the book

334
00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:34.440
where I share how you can strengthen
that just to balance your nervous system and

335
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:37.000
get your brain relaxed. And one
is called the switch. It's like a

336
00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:41.400
karate chop that you take with a
few distinct belly breaths. Just right now,

337
00:24:41.480 --> 00:24:48.400
take belly breaths and just feel how
your breath really can relax you.

338
00:24:48.920 --> 00:24:52.519
Then you could close your eyes,
even if it's just three seconds. That

339
00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:56.880
would be step one. Step two
is learning to say no gracefully. So

340
00:24:57.039 --> 00:25:00.880
I know that, especially as women, we been so trained to please,

341
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:04.799
we've been so trained to say yes, that we often have a hard time

342
00:25:04.920 --> 00:25:08.680
saying no to stuff. And when
we learn to say yes to the things

343
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:11.599
that really matter to us, we
are having, We're going to have to

344
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:15.240
say no to stuff, and often
we lack the courage. So what we

345
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:18.039
could do right now, if we
even just think of that courage, it

346
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:22.640
will take to own our desires,
which is the next step. Is we

347
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:27.000
could tap right under our collar bones. So if you take like your thumb

348
00:25:27.039 --> 00:25:33.279
and your forefinger right and you tap
the area beneath your collar bones in the

349
00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:36.440
center of your chest. It doesn't
really matter way you're tapping here. It's

350
00:25:36.559 --> 00:25:41.319
all tapping into your adrenals, into
the end points of your meridian of the

351
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:44.960
kidneys. And when we feel fear, and we you know, fear is

352
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:48.160
part of human life, then we
can often tap into that fear and stay

353
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:52.680
stuck in it, and then we
can maybe even believe that we can't achieve

354
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:57.480
our goals. So by tapping on
these points and taking breaths, even audible

355
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:03.519
ones, there you go. You
could just say to yourself and think of

356
00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:07.160
your goal, think of your desire, and say I can do this,

357
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:12.400
I will do this, and I
am doing this now, and then take

358
00:26:12.440 --> 00:26:18.160
one more breath, and then does
notice the difference in your body right now,

359
00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:21.720
this is the difference in your brain. Notice how you maybe have more

360
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:25.160
clarity right now, or even the
chance to think of what is it that

361
00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:29.920
I really want? So that's step
two, say, learn to say no

362
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:34.480
gracefully. Then step three is forgive
and release joyfully. And I know that

363
00:26:34.559 --> 00:26:38.119
might sound super woo woo, but
here's the deal. We often feel that

364
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:42.079
we need to hold on to that
past pain. It can define us because

365
00:26:42.119 --> 00:26:45.720
the stories. You know, oh, I'm such a victim because my mom

366
00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:48.400
was like this, and my dad
did this, and my ex did that.

367
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:52.400
You know I did that myself.
But what happens that we stay stuck

368
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:56.000
in the past and then we have
many theories out then, and I think

369
00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:00.960
a lot of the spiritual stuff often
teaches us that this letter and go has

370
00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:03.039
to be difficult, and it has
to be painful, and us women,

371
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:07.519
we can't get over anything. And
I say that's bs. Honestly, it

372
00:27:07.559 --> 00:27:11.000
is because once we see that whatever
happened to us in the past was actually

373
00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:15.319
a blessing, then that release and
not letting go. Just hear the word

374
00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:19.640
release can be joyful. And I
teach many ways in the book of how

375
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:22.640
to do that. Then step forward. This is a fun bit I mentioned

376
00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:27.680
it earlier is owning your desire so
I suggest here, make a desire board.

377
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:32.720
Make a vision board with all those
hearts desires you have and you often

378
00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:37.359
have even had maybe shame around claiming, and make a visual explore you know,

379
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:41.119
expression of that. Stick it up
on a big pin board and make

380
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:45.200
your unconscious minds see what you want
more often, because so often we focus

381
00:27:45.240 --> 00:27:48.839
on what we don't want instead of
what we want. So then step five

382
00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:52.880
is when you get to tap into
the universe I call it. That's when

383
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:57.680
we get to explore intuition and allow
us allow it to guide us and to

384
00:27:57.759 --> 00:28:03.000
see what happens when we follow.
And I suggest just do it for ten

385
00:28:03.119 --> 00:28:07.759
days that you trust that little voice
inside of you and you just go for

386
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:11.880
it. If it's not threatening your
life for health, and you're not damaging

387
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:15.920
anybody else, just try it out
and go with that yes that you feel

388
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:18.839
inside instead of shrinking back. And
then tell me what happens and give me

389
00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:26.240
feedback, tell me what happens.
That's exactly it. Okay, Wow,

390
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.119
that was powerful, really powerful,
Joy, And thank you for being so

391
00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:32.160
generous and sharing you what's in your
book. And then because I know I've

392
00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:36.279
read the whole thing, there are
several examples in there too that you've given.

393
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:41.319
I think that anybody that's tuned into
the show did come in because they

394
00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:44.920
recognize that maybe that you know,
there's an opportunity for them to learn something

395
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:48.039
themselves, or grow or be deeper
in this space, or maybe somebody's told

396
00:28:48.079 --> 00:28:52.519
them that they maybe that this is
what's interesting. People say, well,

397
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:56.960
what if I can't trust my intuition? What if it's steered me wrong?

398
00:28:57.039 --> 00:29:02.079
What would you say to them?
What if you did trust it? What

399
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:04.880
would happen? Then? What is
your biggest fear? So I'll quote Mary

400
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:10.519
Anne Williamson there, our biggest fear
is not that we could fail. Our

401
00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:15.319
biggest fear is that we could actually
succeed. That we are powerful beyond means.

402
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:18.559
I think, you know, we
just sometimes have our focus wrong.

403
00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:22.720
Instead of focusing on all the stuff
that could go wrong, how about focusing

404
00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:26.960
on what could go right? And
if intuition tells you, for instance,

405
00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:33.599
here's a good trick. I call
it, ask yourself an empowering question in

406
00:29:33.640 --> 00:29:37.519
those moments when you don't know what
to do and what what's happening right now

407
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:41.640
seems like a disaster. Instead of
saying, oh my god, what's wrong

408
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:44.440
here, and how could I have
screwed this up? And what's wrong with

409
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:48.559
me for having gotten myself into this? How about taking a breath and saying,

410
00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:53.839
how is whatever is happening right now
a blessing for me? And what

411
00:29:55.160 --> 00:30:00.119
is the most loving thing I could
do for myself right now? Now?

412
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.319
When we ask those kind of questions, we get good answers. Our unconscious

413
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:08.920
mind is just how it works,
has to come up with answers. Then

414
00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:12.720
go ahead and write them down and
then look at them and sleep over it,

415
00:30:12.759 --> 00:30:15.960
and see what if I did trust
that what is the worst case of

416
00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:19.880
what could happen? What if I
told someone that I've wanted to tell for

417
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:22.680
a long time that you know,
we need to change our relationship. What

418
00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:26.359
if I had the courage just to
tell them what is the worst thing that

419
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:30.119
could happen? You'll see your fears
right away? And then go back to

420
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:34.839
that technique that I just taught you
by tapping underneath your collar bones and accept

421
00:30:34.880 --> 00:30:37.480
that fear. Say, Okay,
fear is part of life, But do

422
00:30:37.559 --> 00:30:41.000
I need to listen to it?
Or could I trust that my intuition,

423
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:45.759
that highest intelligence is guiding me right
and just go for it? Do it

424
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:49.759
for ten days. I guarantee you'll
see more joy than pain. I love

425
00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:53.799
that redirect. That was fantastic joy. And with that, let's go into

426

443
00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:38.000
for this final section here, what
I'd like to do, Joy is really

444
00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:42.039
talk about how to apply or using
intuition in our life. So what can

445
00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:45.359
we do with this stuff? So
you already talked at the beginning of the

446
00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:47.839
show that one of the reasons that
you wanted to get this message out is

447
00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:52.160
to address this epic problem that people
are not as happy as they used to

448
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:55.599
be or could be. So that's
one one thing. So say a little

449
00:32:55.599 --> 00:32:58.960
bit more if you can, or
presence more if you can, about how

450
00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:05.079
we can use our intuition to gain
more happiness. I think one important connection

451
00:33:05.480 --> 00:33:08.680
I want to stress is how our
intuition is connected to our bodies intelligence.

452
00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:15.960
So we often feel in our body
first if something is right for us or

453
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:20.119
not. And you know, I've
done so much research not only on intuition,

454
00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:22.960
but also how our brain functions.
And you know, psychology obviously is

455
00:33:22.960 --> 00:33:27.400
the background here. And have found
that, especially if we look at the

456
00:33:27.440 --> 00:33:31.640
second epidemic that we have globally,
and that is obesity, we see that

457
00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:38.519
when we disconnect from my intuition,
we no longer able to make wise choices.

458
00:33:38.599 --> 00:33:44.519
We'll start making lousy choices in most
areas of our lives. And we'll

459
00:33:44.519 --> 00:33:47.519
see the repercussions of that, not
only in relationships where we're wondering, maybe

460
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:52.279
what am I doing here? And
this isn't going anywhere? Or I'm in

461
00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:54.119
a state with my body where I'm
saying, oh my goodness, the pounds

462
00:33:54.119 --> 00:33:59.680
are coming on. I'm getting sicker
and sicker, and I don't know anymore

463
00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:01.960
what to do. Are there all
these programs out there there all there's all

464
00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:07.440
this different advice. How do I
know what's right for me? And I

465
00:34:07.440 --> 00:34:09.519
have seen that, especially when it
comes to weight loss. I wrote that

466
00:34:09.559 --> 00:34:13.519
other book of mine, it's another
best seller called Sleep Your Fat Away.

467
00:34:13.599 --> 00:34:17.360
I I show that when we just
reconnect to our bodies intuition, that's when

468
00:34:17.400 --> 00:34:22.400
we feel it first and we trust
that. Then we learn to create a

469
00:34:22.440 --> 00:34:28.480
life based around more healthy choices rather
than what I was talking about earlier,

470
00:34:28.559 --> 00:34:34.079
that imprint of past pain. So
my advice to every listener is that when

471
00:34:34.239 --> 00:34:37.880
when you're when you're about to make
an important choice in life, whether that

472
00:34:38.199 --> 00:34:42.760
is I don't know something as profane
as as as what am I going to

473
00:34:42.800 --> 00:34:45.920
eat for dinner tonight, or if
it's a more important choice of am I

474
00:34:45.960 --> 00:34:49.920
going to marry this person or not, then really take a time just to

475
00:34:50.599 --> 00:34:55.840
tune into yourself by closing your eyes, feeling the feeling that you feel in

476
00:34:55.880 --> 00:35:01.039
your body when you connect to that
decision that you need to make a notice.

477
00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:07.519
Is it fear that comes up or
is there some form of excitement in

478
00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:12.559
me that this would be actually something
that fires me up. But I might

479
00:35:12.639 --> 00:35:15.280
believe I'm not worthy of it,
or I might believe I'm not capable of

480
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:20.280
it, because that is coming from
a limited mind, and that is your

481
00:35:20.320 --> 00:35:25.159
conscious mind. So I think the
easiest way to distinguish is this intuition or

482
00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:29.840
is this just an old memory that's
triggering something out of me, is to

483
00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:32.199
really listen to what it's doing in
your body. Is your body tense,

484
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:37.079
is your breathing shallow? Or is
there something in you that makes you feel

485
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:42.880
good. And for us women,
we feel that feel good feeling when we

486
00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:46.039
feel turned on, when we think
of something that kind of gets our blood

487
00:35:46.280 --> 00:35:50.800
curdling in a good way, right, it gets us excited. We feel

488
00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:54.760
kind of butterflies inside of us.
When we trust that feeling in our body,

489
00:35:55.000 --> 00:36:00.599
it's way easier to listen also to
maybe that voice you're waiting for,

490
00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:04.039
should I do this? Should I
not? And then when we tap into

491
00:36:04.119 --> 00:36:07.920
that courage of just going ahead with
it, we often find that when we

492
00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:12.440
just take that first leap of faith, the universe really does support us.

493
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:15.760
We will find that people will come
out to support us. We'll get questions

494
00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:20.840
and you know, I call it
driftwood from the universe that you're on the

495
00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:23.800
right path, you can keep going, and challenges are not a sign that

496
00:36:23.840 --> 00:36:28.960
you're on the wrong track. Challenges
are only a sign that universe is kind

497
00:36:28.960 --> 00:36:31.199
of testing you. Do you really
want this? And they're a sign that

498
00:36:31.239 --> 00:36:36.400
you have everything in you to overcome
those challenges. And I'm not just saying

499
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:39.440
that, but look at any person
who's made it to something, to something,

500
00:36:39.679 --> 00:36:44.800
to someone you admire, take a
role model. They have all overcome

501
00:36:45.039 --> 00:36:49.039
challenges. Nothing has come easy.
We just see often the success and we

502
00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:52.559
don't see what led to that.
So the challenges are not what's going to

503
00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:57.119
get less. I think it's more
about learning in a more joyful way and

504
00:36:57.159 --> 00:37:01.280
seeing life from the perspective that it
really is happening for me and not against

505
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:08.039
me. I love all of that
now. So in that response to that

506
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:13.199
question, you already addressed a couple
of the benefits of developing our intuition making

507
00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:15.760
us happier and healthier. But in
the book you also talk about how it

508
00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:21.480
can help us handle adversity better.
See more about that. Yes, well,

509
00:37:21.639 --> 00:37:22.960
here's a bit of a doom's thinking. But I don't want to come

510
00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:25.639
over as that because I really am
not. But if I just look at

511
00:37:25.639 --> 00:37:30.639
what's happening on this planet, I
see that we have more and more crisises.

512
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:35.559
Right, we have epidemics on this
planet of on disease, on wars

513
00:37:35.639 --> 00:37:38.760
on It's a very unsafe time on
this planet. It's just what is.

514
00:37:39.159 --> 00:37:44.239
So I think we have to accept
that adversity is just part of life.

515
00:37:44.320 --> 00:37:50.559
It's about how do we handle this
adversity? And the number one key to

516
00:37:50.639 --> 00:37:54.280
handling adversity is to manage your own
state. You know we can, because

517
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:59.119
we often get tuned out of ourselves
and get sucked into that whole buzz.

518
00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:04.039
Believe that because everything around us is
in chaos, we need to get sucked

519
00:38:04.079 --> 00:38:07.320
into that. But that is just
a downward spiral because then we're a lot

520
00:38:07.360 --> 00:38:10.039
of drowning people at the same time. The only thing we can do to

521
00:38:10.199 --> 00:38:15.480
handle whatever is coming at us,
whatever life throws at us, is to

522
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:20.159
get our state in the best way
possible, and that is not to do

523
00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:22.239
more of what you've done in the
past, which keeps you more in the

524
00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:27.239
buzz and feels like you're forcing life, but really taking a step out,

525
00:38:27.760 --> 00:38:30.519
taking a breath, taking a break. You know, you'd be surprised.

526
00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:35.519
I coached people around the world.
We have, as I said, workshops

527
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:39.480
with thousands of people, but even
top executives who have my VIP clients that

528
00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:45.000
one thing of taking a twenty minute
me time every day. Do you know

529
00:38:45.039 --> 00:38:49.639
how hard that is for most?
But what if that was a life save

530
00:38:49.719 --> 00:38:53.719
and it is if you only took
twenty minutes a day and dedicated that to

531
00:38:54.079 --> 00:39:00.000
me time and said I'm going to
spend that time creating pleasure, making sure

532
00:39:00.199 --> 00:39:04.159
I take care of me because that
does one simple thing. It raises our

533
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:07.039
vibration. It makes us healthier,
It keeps us happier. And when we're

534
00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:09.719
healthier, happy, we just have
more to give. And you know,

535
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:15.119
that's my bigger vision. I think
this is how we can turn the adversity

536
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:19.639
and the rising negativity on this planet
around. It's the only way we have

537
00:39:19.719 --> 00:39:22.840
to claim that empowerment saying I'm in
charge of my life. I'm in charge

538
00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:27.679
of my state. So even if
life seems like a disaster, I need

539
00:39:27.719 --> 00:39:34.360
to take that step out and tune
into myself and balance myself. Fantastic,

540
00:39:34.559 --> 00:39:37.199
joy, fantastic And along those lines, right along those lines. One of

541
00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:40.360
the things that I like about the
way you've outlined your book is you've got

542
00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:44.880
these various tips in there. So
there's a happiness tip and it kind of

543
00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:49.679
gets to what you were just saying
there about it's about reframing mistakes as interesting

544
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:52.480
ways of learning. I love how
you talk about that, so sure that

545
00:39:52.519 --> 00:39:55.159
with our listeners too, would you? Well? Such an important part of

546
00:39:55.760 --> 00:40:00.920
how we create life is other thoughts
that we think, the actions we take,

547
00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:06.440
the choices we make, and it's
so much of how we talk to

548
00:40:06.519 --> 00:40:10.679
ourselves and what we say out loud, and when we start becoming conscious of

549
00:40:10.760 --> 00:40:15.119
what am I saying to myself?
Am I saying to myself when things go

550
00:40:15.239 --> 00:40:19.599
wrong? Oh what a disaster?
Of course this would happen to me.

551
00:40:19.760 --> 00:40:22.840
I just never get it right.
I'm just not worthy of this. Lah

552
00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:25.960
blah dah. All that you were
creating more of what you don't want.

553
00:40:27.400 --> 00:40:30.840
So when something happens that feels like
a mistake, feels like a failure,

554
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:35.199
if I'm able to say to myself, well, that was an interesting way

555
00:40:35.239 --> 00:40:39.360
of learning, I am giving my
brain and myself a different message. I

556
00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:44.159
am saying, Okay, I've just
learned another way of how it doesn't work.

557
00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:46.480
You know. Edison was quoted to
say, I found a thousand ways

558
00:40:46.519 --> 00:40:50.559
of how a light bulb doesn't work, and then he found it. So

559
00:40:51.519 --> 00:40:54.039
I've just seen that I get to
results much much quicker if I see it

560
00:40:54.079 --> 00:40:59.000
that way, and I move through
adversity faster. And that's what I would

561
00:40:59.039 --> 00:41:01.920
love everybody to be able to do
too, just by asking those kind of

562
00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:07.480
questions. Brilliant, simple tip.
I love it. Okay, Now what

563
00:41:07.639 --> 00:41:10.840
about problem solving? What you talk
about this in your book as well,

564
00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:15.039
which I think is also so important. So what role does intuition play in

565
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:22.320
problem solving? Well, intuition is
so strongly connected to our creativity. When

566
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:27.280
we want to be creative, think
of new ways of solving a problem,

567
00:41:27.360 --> 00:41:30.719
we will not be able to solve
them with the old mind or the mind

568
00:41:30.760 --> 00:41:35.280
that has created them. So our
conscious mind is not the mind that we

569
00:41:35.320 --> 00:41:40.119
want to access or ask when we
want creative solutions to problems that we're facing.

570
00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:44.880
So what we want to gain access
to is our unconscious mind, that

571
00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:50.079
creativity inside verse, that intuitive part. So I share many ways of how

572
00:41:50.119 --> 00:41:53.159
to get access to that unconscious mind. And the good news is it's all

573
00:41:53.280 --> 00:41:58.079
very relaxing. And I even share
a brain training in the book that you

574
00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:01.800
will get to download for free,
where you just learn to relax the brain

575
00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:07.920
and in that relaxed brainwave state,
we have creative insights. So eighty three

576
00:42:07.960 --> 00:42:14.159
percent of all people questioned in at
international study so that they had most of

577
00:42:14.199 --> 00:42:16.599
their creative insights in the shower.
Now think about it, the shower,

578
00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:21.039
you're on your own, you've got
no really bugging you, is warm water

579
00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:27.239
cascading down your body, maybe taking
those first conscious breaths of their day.

580
00:42:27.639 --> 00:42:30.400
That is, of course the perfect
time for intuition to come in for you

581
00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:35.360
to get creative ideas. So or
it's a bike ride, or it's I

582
00:42:35.400 --> 00:42:37.639
don't know, making love, whatever
it is that it takes for you to

583
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:44.239
get a relaxed brainwave state and access
that state of pleasures simply because it's a

584
00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:49.960
higher vibration than depression or anger or
shame or guilt. And the higher your

585
00:42:50.079 --> 00:42:53.639
personal vibration is, the better your
emotions are and the better your results will

586
00:42:53.639 --> 00:43:00.199
get. I have been so delighted
in coulderbeam my own creativity here, and

587
00:43:00.199 --> 00:43:02.800
now you're giving me a whole new
access to this joy. Thank you for

588
00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:06.840
that. And it's been to life. I've been saying my whole life that

589
00:43:06.880 --> 00:43:09.280
I'm not creative. You know,
I've just assigned myself that status. You're

590
00:43:09.320 --> 00:43:12.800
not creative, and people tell me
all the time, at least you're so

591
00:43:12.840 --> 00:43:15.599
creative. I'm like, are you
talking about looking over my shoulder. You've

592
00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:20.639
just given me a whole new access
there. Thank you. So from now

593
00:43:20.679 --> 00:43:23.559
on you're going to obviously talk about
yourself as why is it so easy for

594
00:43:23.679 --> 00:43:30.039
me to be so creative? Exactly? I'm gonna usually frame exactly hmmm.

595
00:43:30.559 --> 00:43:32.440
Well, and we're getting close to
the end of the show already here.

596
00:43:32.480 --> 00:43:35.920
So there's two more questions I want
to get out of you before we dash,

597
00:43:35.960 --> 00:43:39.039
but one of them and I really
appreciate what you're up to in life.

598
00:43:39.159 --> 00:43:43.079
Who you are is as a businesswoman, as an author, as a

599
00:43:43.119 --> 00:43:47.039
thinker, as a creator. So
how do we go about harnessing this highest

600
00:43:47.079 --> 00:43:52.400
form of intelligence, of intuition for
the greater good? Hm? Well,

601
00:43:52.440 --> 00:43:57.119
I think by seeing that we are
doing it for the greater good. It

602
00:43:57.199 --> 00:44:01.559
really circles back to this interesting paradigm
that many of us have from we call

603
00:44:01.599 --> 00:44:05.639
it, you know, in spiritual
reams, it's called the Pist's time,

604
00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:10.719
which was so dominated by shame and
guilt, and that christ consciousness in kind

605
00:44:10.760 --> 00:44:15.920
of interpreted in an interesting way that
we're all born sinners and we've all got

606
00:44:15.960 --> 00:44:19.559
to kind of burn our here and
suffer here to learn our lessons. So

607
00:44:20.079 --> 00:44:23.679
along with that kind of thinking comes
a lot that cuts us off from intuition,

608
00:44:24.119 --> 00:44:28.079
and what it's created is the society
of suffering. I mean, look

609
00:44:28.119 --> 00:44:31.239
around you. So I think by
shifting that paradigm when it's happened, it

610
00:44:31.239 --> 00:44:37.360
doesn't really matter which spiritual teaching or
concept you follow, but we all can

611
00:44:37.559 --> 00:44:42.840
feel and see that the shift,
this change on the planet Earth is coming,

612
00:44:43.239 --> 00:44:45.840
and part of that shift is to
start seeing it in a more aquarius

613
00:44:45.920 --> 00:44:50.639
time way, seeing that we are
the creators of our life. We do

614
00:44:51.400 --> 00:44:55.360
have control over our own state,
that we are the ones that make decisions,

615
00:44:55.400 --> 00:45:00.679
and depending on the quality of the
decisions that we make, create the

616
00:45:00.760 --> 00:45:05.119
life that we are looking at.
And I really invite everyone to see if

617
00:45:05.159 --> 00:45:08.119
we all see it that way,
we can create change on a global level,

618
00:45:08.559 --> 00:45:14.159
not by perpetuating this old pain model. And part of that is really

619
00:45:14.320 --> 00:45:17.639
to owning that power in yourself and
to seeing that when when I take care

620
00:45:17.639 --> 00:45:22.639
of myself, I have more to
give. It's in our human nature to

621
00:45:22.760 --> 00:45:27.199
care. That's who we are.
You don't have to tell moms take more

622
00:45:27.239 --> 00:45:30.679
care. We do it anyway,
But we need to learn how to fill

623
00:45:30.719 --> 00:45:34.760
our own vessel first, that we
actually have something to give and we're not

624
00:45:34.800 --> 00:45:37.960
sharing our pain. So I know
that we all have that power to create

625
00:45:38.000 --> 00:45:44.039
that change within us, that nobody
is unfixable. What I heard from that

626
00:45:44.159 --> 00:45:46.519
joy, among other things, was
if we will take that time to care

627
00:45:46.599 --> 00:45:52.480
for ourselves even at starting with that
twenty minute thing that you mentioned before about

628
00:45:52.840 --> 00:45:55.280
focusing on what do I want,
what do I need so that we are

629
00:45:55.360 --> 00:46:00.000
fortified. It ripples out to our
immediate loved ones, to our community,

630
00:46:00.280 --> 00:46:02.920
to our companies, to our country. And I completely see how that would

631
00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:10.199
change the world good. I like
that. Yes, all right, Well,

632
00:46:10.360 --> 00:46:14.280
we're close to the to the end
of the show here, so I

633
00:46:14.360 --> 00:46:16.440
want to give you a chance here
to maybe in a minute or two,

634
00:46:16.639 --> 00:46:20.880
just what would you like to leave
our listeners with here? Joe, You

635
00:46:20.960 --> 00:46:23.480
know that the show is listened to
across the globe. It's about helping people

636
00:46:23.480 --> 00:46:28.159
more meaningful and productively connect with their
work and find meaning and purpose in what

637
00:46:28.199 --> 00:46:31.039
they do. What would you like
to leave them with? I would like

638
00:46:31.159 --> 00:46:37.000
to tell you to stop beating yourself
up about everything that's gone wrong in life,

639
00:46:37.039 --> 00:46:40.159
about all the mistakes you may have
made or may not, and instead

640
00:46:40.280 --> 00:46:46.239
see how far you've come and what
an amazing creat or create tricks of your

641
00:46:46.239 --> 00:46:51.119
life that you are. And if
right now you're maybe going through a struggle

642
00:46:51.199 --> 00:46:53.880
or you have errors in your life
that you say could do with improvement,

643
00:46:53.960 --> 00:46:59.639
then know that in the time that
you were creating that problem that you'd label

644
00:46:59.679 --> 00:47:04.199
it as. Now you are also
creating this solution. And if you now

645
00:47:04.440 --> 00:47:08.000
just take the time to find that
solution by allowing it to come to you

646
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:13.760
and trusting that you have it there, it's just your ability to connect to

647
00:47:13.800 --> 00:47:16.079
it that it needs now, and
that really is such a graceful thing to

648
00:47:16.119 --> 00:47:21.559
do. It'll just come. So
I think we so often focus on that

649
00:47:21.639 --> 00:47:27.480
closed door for so long and miss
the other opening doors by just you know,

650
00:47:27.920 --> 00:47:32.000
changing our perspective right now, and
it often is just that breath and

651
00:47:32.119 --> 00:47:37.199
saying Okay, I can do this, I got this and trusting. So

652
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:42.559
I think unshakable faith is what I'd
like to leave everyone with, and it's

653
00:47:42.679 --> 00:47:49.119
that what it takes in any moment
of adversity is trusting that you've got everything

654
00:47:49.159 --> 00:47:52.360
in you to change it. You
created this and you can change it too.

655
00:47:52.679 --> 00:47:57.480
