Episode 123: We all have moments where we feel like shrinking. Like we’re not enough or when trying to grow outside of our comfort zone just puts us too far outside our comfort zone! Today, I talk about that and share how it happens to me, and what I do when that vulnerability hangover comes to visit! Thanks for listening, I hope that it serves you! Transcript: Hey, you’re listening to Episode 123 of The Art of Living big. All right, so I got another email. And this has been kind of fun. I’ve been getting lots of emails, especially since we did that episode series on talking to your subconscious. And in Episode 118 and 119, we did that goal setting thing and then we implanted the goal setting thing into the future, right. So I wanted to quickly share with you before we start the show, a story that I got that was just so fun, I thought you would really like it. If you haven’t done the actual exercise. Maybe you listened to the episodes, but you haven’t done it. Please do it. I’ve been getting loads of messages about this. And so the message is just starts. This woman and I have messaged in the past, she’s been a longtime listener of the show. And she said I wanted to let you know that I actually did manifest something. It was clear and amazing. I decided it was time to focus on my finances, which are in dire need of help. In your time travel episode, finances were my goal. I wrote down a number, a number that doubled my current yearly income. I envisioned the scenario in which I met my goal. I meditated on it, and then walked away. I didn’t have a plan on how I was going to get there other than some well placed personality traits. Life got busy, I didn’t even get to meditate on it again. A couple of days after I found out that my sister in law was selling her t shirt company. In case you didn’t know my husband is a pro wrestler. And I have been making his merchandise to sell it. I was poorly equipped, which is putting it nicely, and she was selling everything I could ever need. I knew with it, I could still create his merchandise, but also branch out. I can make merchandise for other wrestlers or straight to consumers. So I gave her a call, I asked for a price. And we decided to talk about it again over the weekend. I showed up that Friday and found all of it sitting on the porch. She gave it all to me. She literally handed me a business. She said she thought about it. And she couldn’t shake the feeling that instead of selling it, she needed to give it to me as a gift. She said God told her to do it. And she felt so strongly about it that she wouldn’t even listen to my arguments. To put this in perspective. She had decided to sell all of this stuff back in January. She kept putting it off. And she didn’t know why. She said Well, now I do know why I’ve been putting it off. It was all meant for you. I was so blown away that I didn’t even realize that I had to ask for that I had asked for this just one week prior. It took until the next day. And then it hit me like a ton of bricks, I realized that I had worked to manifest this in my life. I was ready. And I was prepared. I had put it out into the universe and I was answered. She felt so strongly about it too. I believe that all the higher powers are really one thing that we each interpret in our own way based on culture, what I call The Universe, she calls god, it’s all the same. So I wanted to share that with you because what has happened is that she had an idea. She had a vision. She told her subconscious what it was that she wanted. She told the universe, our subconscious is what connects to the universe and our collective consciousness. Okay, so she told it, she put it in the cosmic crock pot and just let it sit and do its thing.
