00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Destiny.

2
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:20.839
<v Speaker 2>Now here's your host, Cliff Dunning. Oh ho, hey, hey,

3
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:25.079
<v Speaker 2>hi doing We are into December, We're into the holidays

4
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:30.239
<v Speaker 2>and that means we are bundling up and not going

5
00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:35.759
<v Speaker 2>out as much. And it is Christmas time. Yeah, December

6
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:36.600
<v Speaker 2>is Christmas time.

7
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:37.960
<v Speaker 3>I hope you're doing well. Hi.

8
00:00:38.039 --> 00:00:41.600
<v Speaker 2>This is Cliff and welcome to Destiny. Today, we are

9
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:45.359
<v Speaker 2>kind of taking an approach that we haven't taken before,

10
00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:49.359
<v Speaker 2>which is breath work. And it's funny because you know what,

11
00:00:49.399 --> 00:00:57.079
<v Speaker 2>we had this series on the biohacking and a breathwork

12
00:00:57.079 --> 00:00:59.000
<v Speaker 2>doesn't really come up in biohacking. But the more I

13
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:01.679
<v Speaker 2>think about it, it's a way to detox.

14
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:03.000
<v Speaker 3>And today's guest is.

15
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:05.760
<v Speaker 2>Going to give us a kind of an update on

16
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:10.439
<v Speaker 2>a new technique of breath work that lends itself to

17
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:15.480
<v Speaker 2>greater intuition, greater states of clarity, which does go along

18
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:17.359
<v Speaker 2>with breathwork. But I think you're going to find that

19
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:20.959
<v Speaker 2>our guest today has a different take on breath work.

20
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:25.439
<v Speaker 2>And years ago there was the rebirthing movement and this

21
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:32.200
<v Speaker 2>is probably nineteen eighties through the two thousands, and breath

22
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:36.079
<v Speaker 2>work was you almost hyperventilated. I was into it for

23
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:38.719
<v Speaker 2>a little bit. But when you did breath work, you

24
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:44.879
<v Speaker 2>were breathing very quickly to fill the lungs and oxygenate

25
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.359
<v Speaker 2>the body and the brain. And the goal was to

26
00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:56.680
<v Speaker 2>relive traumatic periods in your life, to call upon issues

27
00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:01.239
<v Speaker 2>that are bothering you and to clear them. And these

28
00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:05.359
<v Speaker 2>were forms of toxins that you were carrying around, and

29
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:07.760
<v Speaker 2>that that typically happens with a lot of different breathwork

30
00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:13.280
<v Speaker 2>because when you're breathing consciously and sucking in concentrated air,

31
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:19.439
<v Speaker 2>you are detoxing the body, you are expanding and passing

32
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:24.000
<v Speaker 2>great amounts of air through the body, and all kinds

33
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:25.280
<v Speaker 2>of wonderful things can happen.

34
00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:26.280
<v Speaker 3>UH.

35
00:02:26.759 --> 00:02:30.120
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't very much into it like some people were.

36
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:32.599
<v Speaker 2>There's there's a number of different programs. One of the

37
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:37.360
<v Speaker 2>other breathing UH techniques is holotrophic breathing, which is very

38
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:46.360
<v Speaker 2>popular still. But the great thing about breathing techniques, and

39
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:49.240
<v Speaker 2>also there's some there's some meditative techniques that use breathing

40
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:53.439
<v Speaker 2>or the breath is the the clarification is the is

41
00:02:53.479 --> 00:03:00.639
<v Speaker 2>the enhancing the cellular level and clearing clearing toxic clearing

42
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:06.599
<v Speaker 2>aches and pains of the emotional body and I think

43
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 2>it fits very well within the biohacking movement, and so

44
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.280
<v Speaker 2>we're having this guest today talk a little bit about it.

45
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:15.599
<v Speaker 3>Now.

46
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:19.840
<v Speaker 2>What I find is fun about this author is that

47
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:26.400
<v Speaker 2>she has tapped into a cellular level that connects the

48
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:30.919
<v Speaker 2>body mind in spirit, so that you have downloads of

49
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:33.800
<v Speaker 2>what you should be doing, or what she calls discovering

50
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:37.919
<v Speaker 2>your life purpose. Now, a lot of people use different

51
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:42.599
<v Speaker 2>techniques to uncover your life purpose, and that's not necessarily

52
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:46.479
<v Speaker 2>an easy thing because you may work in a nine

53
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>to five existence and not have a sense of what

54
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:54.800
<v Speaker 2>you are here to do. And there's people that are

55
00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:56.520
<v Speaker 2>martyrs and are like, what do you mean? What am

56
00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:57.039
<v Speaker 2>I here to do?

57
00:03:57.080 --> 00:03:57.439
<v Speaker 3>I'm here.

58
00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:00.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm working as a lawyer, I'm working as a physician,

59
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:03.599
<v Speaker 2>and I'm flipping burgers at McDonald's. I'm working at a

60
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:07.159
<v Speaker 2>gas pump up a mechanic. I'm an engineer. That's what

61
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:10.759
<v Speaker 2>I've chose to do. Well, what that life purpose means

62
00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:14.360
<v Speaker 2>is that there's on a cellular level, on a soul,

63
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:20.360
<v Speaker 2>higher self, higher wisdom level, you incarnated and you are

64
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:23.839
<v Speaker 2>supposed to do a job that you are here to do,

65
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:28.519
<v Speaker 2>that you are fully equipped to do. On a more

66
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.800
<v Speaker 2>of a harmonious level, which is something that you love

67
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:34.560
<v Speaker 2>you do, you work and you love what you do.

68
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:36.199
<v Speaker 3>And you've heard of people like that.

69
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:39.519
<v Speaker 2>They go through life, they're working at a regular job,

70
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:42.040
<v Speaker 2>they're doing their engineering work, and all of a sudden

71
00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:44.720
<v Speaker 2>they're like they have an aha moment, like I don't

72
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:48.319
<v Speaker 2>want to do this anymore. I'd rather consult on my

73
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:51.079
<v Speaker 2>own I'd rather have my own business as a consultant.

74
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:54.879
<v Speaker 2>Or I would like to do artistic work, but I

75
00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:56.600
<v Speaker 2>want to do it so I can make a living,

76
00:04:56.759 --> 00:04:59.399
<v Speaker 2>you know. I mean, you've heard stories like this, so

77
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:02.560
<v Speaker 2>are pro today covers this what you were.

78
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:02.959
<v Speaker 3>Here to do?

79
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:08.439
<v Speaker 2>Your life's purpose or your purpose in being here on

80
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:13.600
<v Speaker 2>the planet. And I think there's a lot of dissatisfaction

81
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:16.759
<v Speaker 2>in the work industry with people, and I'm one of them.

82
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:21.079
<v Speaker 2>For years I worked in corporate America and it's it's

83
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:24.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of a it's kind of a dead environment because

84
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:27.399
<v Speaker 2>you're you're like a number. You're sitting in meetings with

85
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:29.639
<v Speaker 2>other people who are just bored out of their minds,

86
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:31.800
<v Speaker 2>you know what I'm talking about. You're making it, You're

87
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:35.360
<v Speaker 2>getting a paycheck, and in some cases it's very good,

88
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:38.959
<v Speaker 2>but you hate your job, and I don't think that's

89
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:41.000
<v Speaker 2>the way it's supposed to be. And I can tell

90
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:47.879
<v Speaker 2>you that from a personal aspect. I wasn't into podcasting initially,

91
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:51.600
<v Speaker 2>but as somebody who's artistic, you know, I was trained

92
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:55.079
<v Speaker 2>as an artist, went to college to become an illustrator,

93
00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:59.000
<v Speaker 2>and later got a degree in business marketing. I had

94
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:02.920
<v Speaker 2>no idea about podcasting. I did it as a side

95
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:06.959
<v Speaker 2>gig for clients who wanted to have podcasts, and I

96
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>grew into it. If you go back to twenty fourteen,

97
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:12.399
<v Speaker 2>some of the early podcasts that I did, you can

98
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:13.839
<v Speaker 2>hear it in my voice. I'm like, you know, it's

99
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:17.480
<v Speaker 2>not like a kid. Of course, the tech wasn't great

100
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:20.199
<v Speaker 2>back then, but and I was kind of moved into it.

101
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:24.040
<v Speaker 2>But this is a natural extension of why I'm here,

102
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:30.759
<v Speaker 2>and I've grown to really enjoy and appreciate podcasting simply

103
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 2>because of the way to communicate with you, but also

104
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:40.959
<v Speaker 2>to give others a place to talk, to present information

105
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:46.639
<v Speaker 2>from a book, to present perspectives and information that I

106
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.560
<v Speaker 2>hope you, as a listener, enjoy, and so far you do.

107
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:54.160
<v Speaker 2>So we all have more of a life purpose than

108
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:57.040
<v Speaker 2>we think, and many of you may have jobs that

109
00:06:57.079 --> 00:06:59.759
<v Speaker 2>you really love and you're like, this is it for me, babe,

110
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.800
<v Speaker 2>not going anywhere. Others of you may just be miserable,

111
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:06.839
<v Speaker 2>and I think you're you may get something out of

112
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:12.759
<v Speaker 2>the program. So today's program is Unlock Your Purpose breath Work,

113
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:18.439
<v Speaker 2>Intuition and Flow State, and my guest is Francesca Symthma.

114
00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:01.160
<v Speaker 2>There are so many different techniques out there for breath work,

115
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:05.480
<v Speaker 2>and I've had an opportunity to try a few of them.

116
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:09.319
<v Speaker 2>I did the rebirthing years ago, and the thing I

117
00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:12.439
<v Speaker 2>didn't like about rebirthing is that I would hyperventilate, but

118
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:17.399
<v Speaker 2>that was part of the process of shifting your consciousness

119
00:08:17.399 --> 00:08:20.560
<v Speaker 2>and having some air not air whatever. But today we're

120
00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:22.839
<v Speaker 2>going to talk about a brand new program, a form

121
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:26.160
<v Speaker 2>of breath work, but not only just breath work, intuition

122
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:31.920
<v Speaker 2>and getting into a state of wellness or harmony. That

123
00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:37.679
<v Speaker 2>is really a powerful program. My guest today is Francesca Sidma,

124
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:40.639
<v Speaker 2>and she has written a book called Unblock Your Purpose,

125
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:44.240
<v Speaker 2>breath Work, Intuition and Flow State.

126
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:45.879
<v Speaker 3>And what makes.

127
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:50.559
<v Speaker 2>Francesca so unique is she has a corporate background where

128
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:55.840
<v Speaker 2>she was working as an advertiser marketing person in a

129
00:08:57.200 --> 00:09:02.159
<v Speaker 2>very fast paced agency, and at some point she was like,

130
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:04.440
<v Speaker 2>what am I doing here? And you hear this in

131
00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:09.639
<v Speaker 2>her book, and I want to just mention that not

132
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:12.639
<v Speaker 2>only was she in the corporate world, she was working

133
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:17.519
<v Speaker 2>with major clients like Google, Marriott, Baccardy in a ten

134
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:20.120
<v Speaker 2>year journey that at some point, and we're going to

135
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:23.320
<v Speaker 2>find out about this today, she decided that this was

136
00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:24.120
<v Speaker 2>not for her.

137
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:27.639
<v Speaker 3>And what comes up is.

138
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:30.879
<v Speaker 2>What is her true purpose? And so we're going to

139
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.759
<v Speaker 2>find out all about this. Francesca, Welcome to Destiny. Great

140
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:35.000
<v Speaker 2>to have you on the program today.

141
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Thanks so much. I'm excited to be.

142
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:40.720
<v Speaker 2>Here talk about the corporate world. Before we started, we

143
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:44.159
<v Speaker 2>were kind of reminiscing I was working for PayPal for

144
00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:48.960
<v Speaker 2>a while, and although it's well pained and it's kind

145
00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:53.480
<v Speaker 2>of exciting, there's something about it that's just not copasetic,

146
00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:53.960
<v Speaker 2>is it.

147
00:09:55.639 --> 00:09:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? You know, I think it kind of goes through phases.

148
00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:00.919
<v Speaker 1>When you're younger, you don't really know to expect. And

149
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:03.919
<v Speaker 1>I think that the grind, especially in New York City,

150
00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:07.240
<v Speaker 1>was just sort of table stakes. So I went into

151
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:09.600
<v Speaker 1>it thinking, you know, this is how hard everybody works,

152
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:11.320
<v Speaker 1>and this is how much you have to hustle and

153
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:14.519
<v Speaker 1>how competitive and cutthroat it can be, and it just

154
00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:17.840
<v Speaker 1>became a conditioned part of my life and my lifestyle.

155
00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:20.559
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't really until I hit sort of those

156
00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:23.200
<v Speaker 1>big milestones and those goals that I was really striving

157
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:26.120
<v Speaker 1>for and I didn't have anywhere else to go, that

158
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:28.879
<v Speaker 1>I had the opportunity to really reflect and be like,

159
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.360
<v Speaker 1>am I happy? And the answer was definitely not.

160
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:33.919
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's funny you open your book and you're

161
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:37.200
<v Speaker 2>like taking adderall. You're taking these drugs to wake up,

162
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:40.679
<v Speaker 2>to go to sleep, to maintain. That's going to catch

163
00:10:40.759 --> 00:10:43.639
<v Speaker 2>up with you pretty quickly. Talk about that lifestyle that

164
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:45.559
<v Speaker 2>you were adhering to.

165
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:52.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I was extremely intense. So for about a decade,

166
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.679
<v Speaker 1>I was setting an alarm at five am taking an adderall,

167
00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:59.039
<v Speaker 1>which was unprescribed by the way, I do not have ADHD.

168
00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I was doing it for the adrenaline and for the productivity,

169
00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and I would hit it double workout. I would go

170
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:06.000
<v Speaker 1>to boxing, then I would sprint over to a hot

171
00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:08.639
<v Speaker 1>yoga class. I would shower in the gym, go straight

172
00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:12.000
<v Speaker 1>to work, do a twelve sometimes fourteen hour day, and

173
00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:13.879
<v Speaker 1>then I would chug a bottle of wine take a

174
00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:18.159
<v Speaker 1>xanax and pass out. And that was my lifestyle for

175
00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:22.919
<v Speaker 1>almost ten years. So it was extremely taxing on my body.

176
00:11:23.000 --> 00:11:26.759
<v Speaker 1>But again I had no reference point of something else.

177
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:29.159
<v Speaker 1>You know, a lot of people lived a very intense

178
00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:31.639
<v Speaker 1>lifestyle in New York City. We all partied hard, we

179
00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:35.679
<v Speaker 1>all worked extremely hard. So I didn't really know how

180
00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:39.840
<v Speaker 1>out of alignment I was until I left New York.

181
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:45.519
<v Speaker 2>When was the aha moment that you needed to move

182
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:49.759
<v Speaker 2>beyond that corporate lifestyle and into something else.

183
00:11:51.639 --> 00:11:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I very distinctly remember this moment. I was actually in

184
00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:58.159
<v Speaker 1>Cape Town, South Africa. I had just traveled their business

185
00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:02.000
<v Speaker 1>class for a global mart getting shoot on Bacardi and

186
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I was running the shoot on my own multimillion dollar production,

187
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:07.559
<v Speaker 1>and I was staying at a five star hotel and

188
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:09.679
<v Speaker 1>I was like, this is it. This is what I

189
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:11.799
<v Speaker 1>dreamed about when I was a young girl. You know,

190
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:15.559
<v Speaker 1>this is like the executive director job. And I was

191
00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:19.360
<v Speaker 1>on this really glamorous shoot and I was crying in

192
00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:22.159
<v Speaker 1>my hotel room. I was like, I'm just so unfulfilled

193
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:24.679
<v Speaker 1>and I feel so empty, and if I can hit

194
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:27.279
<v Speaker 1>the peak of the mountain and I don't feel a gratitude,

195
00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:29.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't feel a celebration, I don't feel a joy.

196
00:12:29.240 --> 00:12:32.559
<v Speaker 1>Then something's truly wrong here. And so that's what sort

197
00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:34.200
<v Speaker 1>of set me off on a quest.

198
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you described traveling to another of exotic countries and

199
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:45.440
<v Speaker 2>kind of taking time off. Was that kind of like

200
00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:47.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm sick of this job, I need to find out

201
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:51.840
<v Speaker 2>who I am. Is that what launched that kind of

202
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:54.039
<v Speaker 2>introspective journey.

203
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:58.799
<v Speaker 1>So it's funny. I actually before I got to that point,

204
00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:01.639
<v Speaker 1>I tried San Francis. I thought, you know, I think

205
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I need something more entrepreneurial. I think I want more autonomy.

206
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that will bring me more joy. But SF actually

207
00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:10.840
<v Speaker 1>just didn't resonate with me. And the company that I

208
00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:13.240
<v Speaker 1>worked for it was, you know, it was in software.

209
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:15.960
<v Speaker 1>We didn't have the same sort of energy and vision

210
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:18.320
<v Speaker 1>that I was used to in New York, and that

211
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.440
<v Speaker 1>really forced me to go inwards. So I picked up

212
00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:23.879
<v Speaker 1>the power of now at Cartole. Oh right, Yeah, that

213
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:26.759
<v Speaker 1>was like my radical awakening moment. I recognized that I

214
00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:29.200
<v Speaker 1>was constantly thinking about the past or the future. I

215
00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:31.679
<v Speaker 1>was never in the present. Moment, I started to really

216
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:35.399
<v Speaker 1>tune into my body as the measurement of what was

217
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:38.399
<v Speaker 1>going to bring me joy and fulfillment and everything in

218
00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:40.360
<v Speaker 1>my body, and my intuition was telling me, just go

219
00:13:40.440 --> 00:13:43.039
<v Speaker 1>to Bali. Just book a one way ticket to Bali.

220
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:45.080
<v Speaker 1>And so that was my first time not listening to

221
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:47.960
<v Speaker 1>my logical mind and listening to my body and booking

222
00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:48.360
<v Speaker 1>that flight.

223
00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Were you going there just to get away in a

224
00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:55.879
<v Speaker 2>vacation or were you going there to do coursework?

225
00:13:57.120 --> 00:13:57.720
<v Speaker 3>Because you do.

226
00:13:57.759 --> 00:14:02.679
<v Speaker 2>Talk about discovering other times of breath work talk a

227
00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:07.639
<v Speaker 2>bit about your unveiling, your discovery, your self awareness and

228
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:09.080
<v Speaker 2>what that process was.

229
00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:12.679
<v Speaker 1>So I knew in my intuition that I was just

230
00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:14.480
<v Speaker 1>supposed to book a one way ticket. I had no

231
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:16.840
<v Speaker 1>idea how I was going to quit my job or

232
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:19.120
<v Speaker 1>pay for my rent, or how I was going to

233
00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:21.879
<v Speaker 1>financially support myself. But I knew that it felt really

234
00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:23.919
<v Speaker 1>good in my body to book a one way flight.

235
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:26.240
<v Speaker 1>So I did that first, and then I started to

236
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:29.600
<v Speaker 1>explore different retreat options, and there was one that was

237
00:14:29.639 --> 00:14:32.600
<v Speaker 1>a seven day breathwork retreat, and she used verbiage that

238
00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:35.320
<v Speaker 1>was very similar to Eckhart, and I just resonated with it,

239
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>and I was very curious about it. I had no

240
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.840
<v Speaker 1>idea what breathwork was. I thought it was going to

241
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:42.519
<v Speaker 1>be like a meditation or a yoga retreat. And boy

242
00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:47.159
<v Speaker 1>was I wrong. It was extremely intense, very similar to

243
00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:50.799
<v Speaker 1>what you experienced with rebirthing. But we were going very

244
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:54.480
<v Speaker 1>deep into my subconscious mind. I was accessing childhood memories

245
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:58.240
<v Speaker 1>and just emotions that had been suppressed for decades. I

246
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:00.639
<v Speaker 1>was getting a lot of visions, a lot of insights,

247
00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:03.159
<v Speaker 1>a lot of messages. I was convulsing on the floor

248
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:04.759
<v Speaker 1>and shaking and crying.

249
00:15:04.519 --> 00:15:05.279
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god.

250
00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:09.720
<v Speaker 1>And it was a project. So it was seven days

251
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>just going deep on the inner work and really healing

252
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.279
<v Speaker 1>on a cellular and subconscious level. And when I came

253
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:19.039
<v Speaker 1>out of those seven days, I just wasn't the same person.

254
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:23.519
<v Speaker 1>It was so cathartic and yeah, just so rejuvenating. And

255
00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:26.000
<v Speaker 1>then I was really fascinated by breathwork and that's what

256
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.399
<v Speaker 1>set me off on a journey to really study it,

257
00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:30.440
<v Speaker 1>to research it, and to go to every workshop and

258
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:31.480
<v Speaker 1>training that I could find.

259
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, you didn't just quit corporate life. You must have

260
00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:35.480
<v Speaker 2>transitioned slowly.

261
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:35.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

262
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:38.679
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to speak for you. You may have

263
00:15:38.799 --> 00:15:41.399
<v Speaker 2>just said I'm done and said gave you your notice, But

264
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:44.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. If that's likely or not. Talk about

265
00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:50.480
<v Speaker 2>the transition and also within that, where did you find

266
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:52.679
<v Speaker 2>your purpose, because this is a part of your book

267
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:59.639
<v Speaker 2>is to go in to clear the noise and then

268
00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:02.960
<v Speaker 2>to a sense of what you want to do in

269
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:03.919
<v Speaker 2>this life.

270
00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:08.519
<v Speaker 1>So two different things when it comes to the transition.

271
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:11.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, initially I was like, Okay, I'm gonna quit

272
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:14.000
<v Speaker 1>my job on this date. I'm going to collect the

273
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:17.159
<v Speaker 1>money that I have up until the flight, and that

274
00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:19.519
<v Speaker 1>was sort of my plan. And then, as the universe

275
00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:22.279
<v Speaker 1>would have it, the startup that I was working for

276
00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:25.279
<v Speaker 1>decided to downsize about a week before my trip, and

277
00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:28.200
<v Speaker 1>they actually ended up giving me a month severance. Oh

278
00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:31.320
<v Speaker 1>so that was that was my first layup from the universe.

279
00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:33.879
<v Speaker 1>And then of course somebody also reached out to me

280
00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:36.480
<v Speaker 1>on Airbnb and asked if they could rent out my

281
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:38.799
<v Speaker 1>place for two months. So I was like, okay, this

282
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:41.039
<v Speaker 1>is definitely a sign that I'm supposed to go to Bali,

283
00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:44.799
<v Speaker 1>and I just figured that one month after that trip

284
00:16:44.919 --> 00:16:47.639
<v Speaker 1>I would go back into marketing and advertising. I just

285
00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:50.159
<v Speaker 1>assumed that I'll take a couple weeks off to go

286
00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:52.799
<v Speaker 1>do this breathwork retreat, and when I come back I'll

287
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:56.320
<v Speaker 1>go back into the grind, but my intuition just kept

288
00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:59.960
<v Speaker 1>telling me to continue to travel and continue to expel,

289
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:04.279
<v Speaker 1>and I ended up going to India and Peru and Tiling,

290
00:17:04.640 --> 00:17:08.359
<v Speaker 1>and I tried all of these different modalities, and honestly,

291
00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:12.759
<v Speaker 1>the transition from corporate didn't happen logically, and it didn't

292
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:16.079
<v Speaker 1>happen with sort of the awareness that that's how the

293
00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:19.599
<v Speaker 1>journey was going to go down. I was constantly battling

294
00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:22.359
<v Speaker 1>these inner thoughts that I had to go back to work.

295
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:25.400
<v Speaker 1>And it was about several months of a dance of

296
00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:27.160
<v Speaker 1>me saying, Okay, I'll go to India, but then I'll

297
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:29.960
<v Speaker 1>start applying for jobs again. Okay, I'll do Peru, but

298
00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:32.599
<v Speaker 1>then I need to go back into marketing, And my

299
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:36.200
<v Speaker 1>intuition just kept pushing me to heal and to study

300
00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:40.119
<v Speaker 1>and to discover. And then eventually I got the calling

301
00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:42.839
<v Speaker 1>that I'm supposed to coach breath Work, and I thought,

302
00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:45.880
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, like this is a big transition into

303
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:48.799
<v Speaker 1>entrepreneurship and also an ego death because I was used to,

304
00:17:49.240 --> 00:17:51.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, status and significance from these titles and I

305
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:54.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't really know how it was going to monetize my

306
00:17:54.279 --> 00:17:57.039
<v Speaker 1>own breathwork journey. But I just kept breathing, and I

307
00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:01.519
<v Speaker 1>kept getting answers and insights and clarity, and eventually figured

308
00:18:01.559 --> 00:18:03.599
<v Speaker 1>out how to start to build my brand and my

309
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:07.680
<v Speaker 1>coaching offers, and it ended up being extremely successful. In

310
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:10.200
<v Speaker 1>my first year, I ended up making back my marketing

311
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:12.759
<v Speaker 1>salary and then more than doubling it my second year.

312
00:18:13.200 --> 00:18:15.400
<v Speaker 1>So it was really just continuing to tap into the

313
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:18.680
<v Speaker 1>breath work and staying present and taking those intuitive actions.

314
00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:21.799
<v Speaker 2>So it sounds to me like you you line up

315
00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:25.880
<v Speaker 2>all the goals, all the systems and put them in

316
00:18:25.920 --> 00:18:28.160
<v Speaker 2>place too in it so you didn't have to really

317
00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:31.640
<v Speaker 2>go back to the corporate world right away.

318
00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:33.359
<v Speaker 3>You were able to.

319
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:35.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, did you have to do Did you go

320
00:18:35.359 --> 00:18:38.960
<v Speaker 2>back at all during this You didn't. That is so

321
00:18:39.160 --> 00:18:40.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's a blessing right there.

322
00:18:42.519 --> 00:18:45.039
<v Speaker 1>Let's you know, it absolutely is. But it also took

323
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:49.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot of courage because everything in my ego was

324
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:52.279
<v Speaker 1>like go back for a secure paycheck. You need that

325
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:56.680
<v Speaker 1>financial stability and pay the bonuses. So I definitely think

326
00:18:56.680 --> 00:18:59.000
<v Speaker 1>that that was the toughest part of the journey, was

327
00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:03.799
<v Speaker 1>just the battles of my financial beliefs and having to

328
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:07.599
<v Speaker 1>clear that, and the reason I was able to have

329
00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:10.759
<v Speaker 1>that sort of strength to keep going was because breathwork

330
00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:14.160
<v Speaker 1>became my purpose. It wanted to get really loud and

331
00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:16.839
<v Speaker 1>really clear that I was supposed to bring this modality

332
00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:20.000
<v Speaker 1>to the world in a more efficient and modern way

333
00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:22.720
<v Speaker 1>to help people also heal and get into alignment with

334
00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:26.160
<v Speaker 1>their purpose. So when the calling feels that strong, it

335
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:28.279
<v Speaker 1>gives you a lot of strength and courage to keep

336
00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:29.039
<v Speaker 1>going on the path.

337
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:33.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, honestly, it's a wonderful story, but there's a

338
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:35.039
<v Speaker 2>lot of people going, I can't do that, I can't

339
00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:38.440
<v Speaker 2>quit my job, I'm making six figures, I'm in the

340
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:40.880
<v Speaker 2>corporate world, or I have a family defeat da da

341
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:41.559
<v Speaker 2>da da da.

342
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:44.400
<v Speaker 3>How do we use our intuition to.

343
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:48.079
<v Speaker 2>Really guide us when we're in that process, because that's

344
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:51.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you're describing things that are scary.

345
00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:55.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I totally understand that, And honestly, that's why I

346
00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:57.240
<v Speaker 1>wrote the book and also why I created Master g

347
00:19:57.240 --> 00:19:59.839
<v Speaker 1>app because I know how much fear and doubt and

348
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.400
<v Speaker 1>subconscious blocks and just psychological behavior patterns come up in

349
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:07.160
<v Speaker 1>that transition. So for me, it's not a one size

350
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:10.480
<v Speaker 1>fits all. My story was my journey, but for other people.

351
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>They might start working on that side hustle. They might

352
00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:17.039
<v Speaker 1>start building that audience while they're getting the secure paycheck,

353
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:19.880
<v Speaker 1>or they might feel really strongly in their bones it's

354
00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:22.119
<v Speaker 1>not in alignment. They need to completely free up their

355
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:24.799
<v Speaker 1>energy and go all in on the thing that they love.

356
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:29.519
<v Speaker 1>So what I recommend everyone do is do breathwork hypno

357
00:20:29.559 --> 00:20:33.079
<v Speaker 1>breathwork specifically every single morning so that you are in

358
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:36.839
<v Speaker 1>your clearest state. And then the last vocal cue in

359
00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:39.440
<v Speaker 1>every single one of our sessions is what's your one

360
00:20:39.759 --> 00:20:43.400
<v Speaker 1>next intuitive action step. Because to truly make that transition

361
00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:45.519
<v Speaker 1>and be successful at it, you have to be a

362
00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:49.200
<v Speaker 1>co creator of your experience, and that requires execution. You

363
00:20:49.240 --> 00:20:52.279
<v Speaker 1>can't just have whimsical dreams and feel you know, peace

364
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:54.720
<v Speaker 1>in the twenty minutes that you're breathing. You actually have

365
00:20:54.759 --> 00:20:56.359
<v Speaker 1>to go out into the real world day to day

366
00:20:56.400 --> 00:21:00.240
<v Speaker 1>and take action. And those action steps are reach buck

367
00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:02.720
<v Speaker 1>out to your boss or your HR department and ask

368
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:05.920
<v Speaker 1>to bring this wholeness modality to their staff. You know,

369
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:07.920
<v Speaker 1>sometimes that's the way that you start to get your

370
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:10.839
<v Speaker 1>coaching business off the ground. My first clients were guys

371
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:12.880
<v Speaker 1>that dated me and were like, Wow, what happened to you.

372
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:13.359
<v Speaker 1>I want that.

373
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:17.680
<v Speaker 2>I love that.

374
00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:18.720
<v Speaker 3>That's so hilarious.

375
00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:21.960
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk a little bit about the other breath works

376
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.319
<v Speaker 2>that are out out there. I've had people talk about

377
00:21:25.319 --> 00:21:28.359
<v Speaker 2>holo traffic, which has been around for a long time.

378
00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:33.880
<v Speaker 2>Then I mentioned rebirthing, which is it's it's an unveiling

379
00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:38.960
<v Speaker 2>of your inner dimensions, but it's it seems challenging at times.

380
00:21:39.000 --> 00:21:41.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you're I was doing it in a closed

381
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:44.960
<v Speaker 2>room with a few people and you literally pass out

382
00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:49.680
<v Speaker 2>sometimes because you're hyperventilating, Which, like, what is it about mastery,

383
00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:52.160
<v Speaker 2>by the way, I love that name mastery?

384
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:54.680
<v Speaker 3>What is it about mastery that is.

385
00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:58.279
<v Speaker 2>Unique as a standalone technique.

386
00:21:59.559 --> 00:22:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, A, it's hyper efficient, it's twenty two minutes, and

387
00:22:03.400 --> 00:22:07.400
<v Speaker 1>we blend hypnosis and visualization into our practice and that's

388
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:11.000
<v Speaker 1>what makes it extremely effective and very results driven. So

389
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:14.359
<v Speaker 1>I love holotropic breathwork. I've also done rebirthing breathwork. Those

390
00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:17.359
<v Speaker 1>journeys can be ninety minutes, sometimes two and a half hours.

391
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.480
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of shamanic drumming, there's not a lot

392
00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:22.359
<v Speaker 1>of vocal cues and guidance. And what I found on

393
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:25.079
<v Speaker 1>my journey is that people would have big cathartic releases.

394
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:27.160
<v Speaker 1>They would definitely feel lighter, or they would cry, they

395
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:30.119
<v Speaker 1>might see a memory, but they didn't know how to

396
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:33.440
<v Speaker 1>take that experience and actually change their life. They didn't

397
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:36.920
<v Speaker 1>know how to create the future version of themselves or

398
00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:40.079
<v Speaker 1>start to change the behavior pattern. So what I found

399
00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:44.359
<v Speaker 1>is that by incorporating hypnosis, you're giving the subconscious a

400
00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:47.319
<v Speaker 1>focal point. You're getting to the root of a limiting belief.

401
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:50.359
<v Speaker 1>You're actually breathing out the suppressed emotion and expanding the

402
00:22:50.400 --> 00:22:54.920
<v Speaker 1>mind simultaneously. And when you combine those two practices, people

403
00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:57.240
<v Speaker 1>can see a new future. They can expand they can

404
00:22:57.279 --> 00:22:59.359
<v Speaker 1>see themselves on this stage. They can see themselves having

405
00:22:59.400 --> 00:23:02.640
<v Speaker 1>a success career and entrepreneurship. They can see themselves in

406
00:23:02.680 --> 00:23:06.640
<v Speaker 1>the loving relationship, and they can feel it in their body.

407
00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:09.720
<v Speaker 1>So they're changing their energy as well. They're creating new

408
00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:12.079
<v Speaker 1>neural pathways, and the more that they breathe and see

409
00:23:12.119 --> 00:23:14.799
<v Speaker 1>that image and feel the emotion, they're creating a new

410
00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:17.400
<v Speaker 1>reality that they can step into with more confidence and

411
00:23:17.440 --> 00:23:17.920
<v Speaker 1>more ease.

412
00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:24.839
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you're talking about activating aspects of the unconscious

413
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:28.960
<v Speaker 2>in this process. Is there and we'll talk more about

414
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:31.279
<v Speaker 2>it in depth a little bit later. But is there

415
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:36.000
<v Speaker 2>a intuition that you start out with you intend to

416
00:23:36.119 --> 00:23:40.319
<v Speaker 2>go somewhere to free up more understanding of your purpose?

417
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:44.319
<v Speaker 2>And also do we use that language? What is my

418
00:23:44.400 --> 00:23:49.319
<v Speaker 2>life purpose? How do I achieve it? I'm in a

419
00:23:49.400 --> 00:23:52.599
<v Speaker 2>place now where I can't see this, but well maybe

420
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:55.400
<v Speaker 2>I will later. Blah blah blah. You know, the brain

421
00:23:55.440 --> 00:23:57.079
<v Speaker 2>goes nuts on this kind of stuff. Talk a little

422
00:23:57.079 --> 00:23:57.599
<v Speaker 2>bit about it.

423
00:23:58.720 --> 00:24:01.279
<v Speaker 1>So purpose is a bit of a journy. I wouldn't

424
00:24:01.319 --> 00:24:03.640
<v Speaker 1>promise anyone that in one hypno breathwork session I can

425
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:06.839
<v Speaker 1>get you to your life's purpose. What requires a bit

426
00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:10.640
<v Speaker 1>of healing of the past and also uncovering subconscious blocks

427
00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:14.160
<v Speaker 1>that have kind of posed those limitations on you. So

428
00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:18.240
<v Speaker 1>typically in a hypno breathwork sessions, they're thematic, they're topical,

429
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:20.839
<v Speaker 1>so we have different focal points. We might do a

430
00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:25.279
<v Speaker 1>session on your mother wounds because you're carrying unconscious grief

431
00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:28.440
<v Speaker 1>or sadness or guilt in that relationship, and once you

432
00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:30.720
<v Speaker 1>heal that and free that up, then you'll have more

433
00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:33.640
<v Speaker 1>clarity and creativity to go towards your purpose or that

434
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:36.680
<v Speaker 1>next project or your business. We might do sessions on

435
00:24:36.920 --> 00:24:41.680
<v Speaker 1>self sabotage a session on procrastination. Whatever your pattern is

436
00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:45.880
<v Speaker 1>that's blocking in your life. We have specific sessions tailored

437
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:49.880
<v Speaker 1>with vocal cues and music to that pattern. So on Masteram,

438
00:24:49.880 --> 00:24:53.480
<v Speaker 1>we actually have eighty different sessions across topics of health,

439
00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:58.279
<v Speaker 1>of love, of corporate decision making, thought leader inspired sessions

440
00:24:58.599 --> 00:25:00.920
<v Speaker 1>so that people can find whatever they need that day,

441
00:25:01.640 --> 00:25:04.440
<v Speaker 1>read out the block, get their clear action step and

442
00:25:04.519 --> 00:25:06.079
<v Speaker 1>take that intuitive action.

443
00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:07.200
<v Speaker 3>I love it.

444
00:25:07.400 --> 00:25:09.680
<v Speaker 2>I should mention to our listeners that you have developed

445
00:25:09.680 --> 00:25:15.920
<v Speaker 2>an app and I guess it goes on iPhone or Android. Yeah,

446
00:25:16.279 --> 00:25:17.759
<v Speaker 2>go through both of them.

447
00:25:17.960 --> 00:25:19.200
<v Speaker 3>Are you saying that these.

448
00:25:20.799 --> 00:25:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Techniques, these practices that are loaded on this app and

449
00:25:24.440 --> 00:25:27.160
<v Speaker 2>that you just go through one through eighty or whatever

450
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:31.599
<v Speaker 2>you just were suggesting, or is there a guide to

451
00:25:31.759 --> 00:25:34.240
<v Speaker 2>teach you or somebody that you work with in the

452
00:25:34.359 --> 00:25:35.000
<v Speaker 2>very beginning.

453
00:25:36.319 --> 00:25:39.599
<v Speaker 1>So there's twenty coaches who have helped me create these

454
00:25:40.039 --> 00:25:42.759
<v Speaker 1>audio sessions on the app, and basically you go in

455
00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:44.839
<v Speaker 1>and you'll be prompted with a question, how are you

456
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:46.839
<v Speaker 1>feeling today? What is it that you want to focus on?

457
00:25:46.920 --> 00:25:50.119
<v Speaker 1>And then we'll recommend three different sessions based on your

458
00:25:50.200 --> 00:25:52.799
<v Speaker 1>intention for that day. So you might say I'm feeling

459
00:25:52.799 --> 00:25:55.720
<v Speaker 1>like a five. I want to get more clarity in work.

460
00:25:55.759 --> 00:25:57.880
<v Speaker 1>And we'll be like, great, here's a session on focus,

461
00:25:57.920 --> 00:25:59.880
<v Speaker 1>here's a session on flow state, and here's a session

462
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:03.279
<v Speaker 1>peak performance. And then go and choose that session that day,

463
00:26:03.519 --> 00:26:05.880
<v Speaker 1>and as soon as you breath towards the end, it says,

464
00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:08.319
<v Speaker 1>what's your next intuitive action step? Then you get a

465
00:26:08.319 --> 00:26:10.799
<v Speaker 1>little journal prompt you put that in there, do you

466
00:26:10.799 --> 00:26:12.519
<v Speaker 1>type it in? And then as soon as you complete

467
00:26:12.519 --> 00:26:14.319
<v Speaker 1>that action step, you get your badge for the day.

468
00:26:14.799 --> 00:26:19.039
<v Speaker 1>So it's a digital process to help people integrate and

469
00:26:19.079 --> 00:26:21.400
<v Speaker 1>create that habit and also have accountability.

470
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:23.240
<v Speaker 3>That's very forward thinking.

471
00:26:24.160 --> 00:26:26.880
<v Speaker 2>I really like that because I don't think I've heard

472
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:28.319
<v Speaker 2>of anyone creating an app for.

473
00:26:29.000 --> 00:26:30.680
<v Speaker 3>What you call flow state.

474
00:26:33.119 --> 00:26:36.400
<v Speaker 2>What are you hoping that the user is going to

475
00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:40.119
<v Speaker 2>gain when they begin using the tool? In other words,

476
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:43.839
<v Speaker 2>you made some early points that I think need to

477
00:26:43.839 --> 00:26:46.119
<v Speaker 2>be addressed. Is like, you don't just change your life

478
00:26:46.160 --> 00:26:50.720
<v Speaker 2>right away. I mean, you could have a gig. And

479
00:26:50.799 --> 00:26:53.839
<v Speaker 2>that's how I started my podcast. I had clients that

480
00:26:53.920 --> 00:26:58.359
<v Speaker 2>wanted to invest in podcasting, so I learned all about it,

481
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:02.400
<v Speaker 2>launch their sites, and then through their through the trials

482
00:27:02.400 --> 00:27:08.039
<v Speaker 2>and tribulations of their work. I launch my own. How

483
00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:12.759
<v Speaker 2>do you help people find what you believe is their purpose?

484
00:27:14.400 --> 00:27:19.000
<v Speaker 1>So purpose can be complex, but there actually is sort

485
00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:21.960
<v Speaker 1>of a chronological and linear and tangible journey that I

486
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:25.119
<v Speaker 1>take people through, and it's orchestrated the exact same way

487
00:27:25.160 --> 00:27:27.519
<v Speaker 1>as the book is. It's in three parts. Part once,

488
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:30.599
<v Speaker 1>you have to heal the past, So that's about going

489
00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:33.200
<v Speaker 1>into your inner child. That's about reflecting on your relationship

490
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:36.079
<v Speaker 1>to your mother and also your father and seeing how

491
00:27:36.119 --> 00:27:40.599
<v Speaker 1>their worldview shaped your belief in yourself and shaped your behaviors.

492
00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:43.920
<v Speaker 1>So once we sort of clear out any gunk or

493
00:27:43.960 --> 00:27:48.079
<v Speaker 1>repressed emotion there, then we start to create new connections.

494
00:27:48.119 --> 00:27:52.680
<v Speaker 1>We start to connect the dots between your skills, your experiences,

495
00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:55.839
<v Speaker 1>the occupations that you've chosen, what people tell you that

496
00:27:55.880 --> 00:27:58.079
<v Speaker 1>you're naturally gifted at, what you wanted to be when

497
00:27:58.079 --> 00:28:00.799
<v Speaker 1>you were younger. There's a series of where we start

498
00:28:00.839 --> 00:28:03.759
<v Speaker 1>to activate your gifts, your talents, and what you are

499
00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:07.839
<v Speaker 1>passionate about. Once we start to find those intersections, we

500
00:28:08.200 --> 00:28:11.960
<v Speaker 1>will be all. We'll clear out the financial blocks and

501
00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:14.440
<v Speaker 1>will as soon as you get this creative surgeony, you're like,

502
00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:15.880
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, this is what I'm meant to do

503
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:18.160
<v Speaker 1>in the world. You know, the next day the financial

504
00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:21.839
<v Speaker 1>fears will kick in and that's what that's why we

505
00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:23.079
<v Speaker 1>have to do this breathwork.

506
00:28:23.079 --> 00:28:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Can glad you're mentioning that, because that's a huge was like, oh, yeah,

507
00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:28.200
<v Speaker 2>I want to be a painter.

508
00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:30.960
<v Speaker 3>Years and you know.

509
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:34.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

510
00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:37.160
<v Speaker 2>We're going to take a short commercial break to allow

511
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:41.480
<v Speaker 2>our sponsors to identify themselves and we will return shortly

512
00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:46.920
<v Speaker 2>with my guests today Francesca Sima discussing her new book

513
00:28:47.480 --> 00:29:36.319
<v Speaker 2>Unlock Your Purpose. We'll rejoin you shortly. My guest today

514
00:29:36.359 --> 00:29:40.359
<v Speaker 2>is Francisca Simpma, who's written a new book called Unblock

515
00:29:40.440 --> 00:29:45.319
<v Speaker 2>Your Purpose, breath Work, Intuition and Flow State is. She's

516
00:29:45.359 --> 00:29:50.160
<v Speaker 2>describing the techniques and the results of her therapeutic approach

517
00:29:50.279 --> 00:29:52.119
<v Speaker 2>to wellness.

518
00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:57.799
<v Speaker 1>Listen, I created this app because it's what I use

519
00:29:58.039 --> 00:30:02.160
<v Speaker 1>every single day up and I this morning. You know,

520
00:30:02.200 --> 00:30:04.440
<v Speaker 1>I use it every single day because even as an

521
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:08.200
<v Speaker 1>entrepreneur who has had early success, I still have my fears,

522
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:10.119
<v Speaker 1>I still have my doubts, I still have my conditioning,

523
00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:12.119
<v Speaker 1>my blocks, and this is what I need to get

524
00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:15.000
<v Speaker 1>into the higher state of the future version that I

525
00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:18.559
<v Speaker 1>want to be and create from that place. So once

526
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:20.640
<v Speaker 1>we sort of connect your creative skills and we breathe

527
00:30:20.640 --> 00:30:23.440
<v Speaker 1>out money blocks, and we breathe out you know, relationship

528
00:30:23.440 --> 00:30:25.960
<v Speaker 1>blocks that are coming up in your life, then we

529
00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:29.000
<v Speaker 1>turn it outward. Because the key to purpose is truly

530
00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:32.160
<v Speaker 1>being of service. And when you can figure out who

531
00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:33.880
<v Speaker 1>it is that you're meant to serve and how you

532
00:30:33.880 --> 00:30:36.759
<v Speaker 1>contribute to something greater than yourself, then your life starts

533
00:30:36.759 --> 00:30:39.359
<v Speaker 1>to take on a completely new meaning and you start

534
00:30:39.400 --> 00:30:41.440
<v Speaker 1>to feel real internal peace and fulfillment.

535
00:30:42.079 --> 00:30:45.240
<v Speaker 2>So run me through the process. You do one of

536
00:30:45.279 --> 00:30:51.079
<v Speaker 2>the app meditations and the breath work, you're finished. Are

537
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:56.759
<v Speaker 2>you asking the person to write down impressions? Are you

538
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:02.480
<v Speaker 2>having them get a sense of the feeling? How are

539
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:04.400
<v Speaker 2>you reinforcing the practice?

540
00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:07.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Cliff, I'm loving all of your questions right now

541
00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:10.319
<v Speaker 1>because it's validating a lot of my process.

542
00:31:11.039 --> 00:31:13.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I've been doing I've been well. Any hell, I

543
00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:15.599
<v Speaker 2>love what you're doing, and so I want to help you.

544
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:20.000
<v Speaker 2>And then by your clarity, the listener will go, oh, yeakay,

545
00:31:20.079 --> 00:31:21.359
<v Speaker 2>Francesca is meaning this.

546
00:31:21.960 --> 00:31:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I love it. Okay, so I believe that

547
00:31:25.480 --> 00:31:29.119
<v Speaker 1>I've thought of this. So every chapter in my book,

548
00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:31.839
<v Speaker 1>un Block your Purpose, gives you context, it gives you

549
00:31:32.079 --> 00:31:35.279
<v Speaker 1>psychological principles, and also personal stories of people who have

550
00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:39.240
<v Speaker 1>healed those milestones or made those creative connections. And then

551
00:31:39.359 --> 00:31:42.200
<v Speaker 1>at the end of each chapter, we have corresponding journal

552
00:31:42.279 --> 00:31:45.400
<v Speaker 1>questions and then we have many hypno breathwork sessions so

553
00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:47.960
<v Speaker 1>that you can get to those insights, those revelations, that

554
00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:51.599
<v Speaker 1>healing and that next action step. So Mastery app actually

555
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:55.119
<v Speaker 1>has an entire section that is dedicated to the book

556
00:31:55.240 --> 00:31:58.400
<v Speaker 1>that corresponds with each chapter. So you read about it,

557
00:31:58.480 --> 00:32:00.680
<v Speaker 1>you write your own reflections, then you it and then

558
00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:03.400
<v Speaker 1>you take action. That's sort of the process. And we

559
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:05.880
<v Speaker 1>created those two things complementary so that people could have

560
00:32:05.880 --> 00:32:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the full experience to start to heal and discover their purpose.

561
00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I love it, you just give it to us.

562
00:32:11.680 --> 00:32:15.799
<v Speaker 2>In the one two three, here's the issue. If somebody

563
00:32:16.839 --> 00:32:19.640
<v Speaker 2>is wanting to make a change in their life, if

564
00:32:19.680 --> 00:32:22.000
<v Speaker 2>they know that they're not in a career path that

565
00:32:22.880 --> 00:32:25.640
<v Speaker 2>is helpful. If they have a sense of where they

566
00:32:25.640 --> 00:32:29.240
<v Speaker 2>want to go, Are there counselors, Are there people on

567
00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:33.640
<v Speaker 2>your team that they can reflect with, because Jesus Christ,

568
00:32:33.680 --> 00:32:35.119
<v Speaker 2>if they're leaving a job.

569
00:32:35.519 --> 00:32:37.359
<v Speaker 3>If I mean this is not just job.

570
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:41.920
<v Speaker 2>This could be a relationship, this could be a lifestyle,

571
00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:47.160
<v Speaker 2>this could be a lot of different Yeah, paths, talk

572
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:47.599
<v Speaker 2>about that.

573
00:32:48.519 --> 00:32:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I've got this one too, Cliff. All right, So I

574
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:54.160
<v Speaker 1>also have my twelve week course un Block Your Purpose

575
00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:56.960
<v Speaker 1>that is guided by one of my master coaches. So

576
00:32:57.039 --> 00:32:59.359
<v Speaker 1>these are the deeper sessions. These are the ones that

577
00:32:59.400 --> 00:33:01.480
<v Speaker 1>I went through when I needed support and I needed

578
00:33:01.519 --> 00:33:05.279
<v Speaker 1>guidance with So if you need something more deep, that

579
00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:08.279
<v Speaker 1>is like truly healing some of the core wounds in

580
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:10.359
<v Speaker 1>your life, then I recommend that you do this with

581
00:33:10.400 --> 00:33:14.039
<v Speaker 1>the facilitator. So there's two options. Mastery does have one

582
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:16.880
<v Speaker 1>on one options for coaches. You can hire a coach

583
00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:19.599
<v Speaker 1>for six months and go through this with that sort

584
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:22.400
<v Speaker 1>of support. On Mastery App, we have a live chat

585
00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:25.119
<v Speaker 1>feature so if you are going through something, they can

586
00:33:25.160 --> 00:33:27.720
<v Speaker 1>also provide guidance or set you up with a coach.

587
00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:31.799
<v Speaker 1>And then come January, I'm launching another virtual live session

588
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:35.240
<v Speaker 1>of the full course that people can breathe in community.

589
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:37.920
<v Speaker 1>They can share their reflections on Zoom every week together,

590
00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:40.920
<v Speaker 1>they can get a coach to give them more one

591
00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:43.000
<v Speaker 1>on one time, and then we have a live event

592
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:45.240
<v Speaker 1>happening in April where they're going to be breathing with

593
00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:48.079
<v Speaker 1>me in person and also getting my intuitive coaching and

594
00:33:48.119 --> 00:33:48.880
<v Speaker 1>guidance as well.

595
00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Cool talk about the life path or life purpose as

596
00:33:57.759 --> 00:34:02.400
<v Speaker 2>you call it, Why do we need to seek a

597
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:08.800
<v Speaker 2>more folk fulfilling life path? I mean, why should we care?

598
00:34:10.440 --> 00:34:13.239
<v Speaker 1>I think for two reasons that our top of mind,

599
00:34:13.400 --> 00:34:17.199
<v Speaker 1>which is one mental health, is severely declining, and I

600
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:21.320
<v Speaker 1>think especially post pandemic, it's become so much more visible

601
00:34:21.719 --> 00:34:24.880
<v Speaker 1>and top of mind for people about how unfulfilled they

602
00:34:24.880 --> 00:34:28.679
<v Speaker 1>truly are and how insatiable some of us are. And

603
00:34:28.760 --> 00:34:31.840
<v Speaker 1>so having something that you love to do, that you

604
00:34:32.000 --> 00:34:34.360
<v Speaker 1>love to wake up every single day, it doesn't feel

605
00:34:34.360 --> 00:34:37.639
<v Speaker 1>like work. You're creating, you're giving your gifts. That just

606
00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:41.519
<v Speaker 1>creates such a more peaceful and beautiful life. I think

607
00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:46.079
<v Speaker 1>the other part is we're so focused on our own

608
00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:49.599
<v Speaker 1>internal experience and we turn it outwards when we look

609
00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:51.840
<v Speaker 1>at the obstacles we've overcome, when we look at the

610
00:34:51.840 --> 00:34:54.360
<v Speaker 1>skills and the experiences that we've accumulated, and when we're

611
00:34:54.400 --> 00:34:57.559
<v Speaker 1>able to share that knowledge to help someone else. I've

612
00:34:57.639 --> 00:35:00.960
<v Speaker 1>never tapped into a feeling like that before, for you know,

613
00:35:01.039 --> 00:35:03.119
<v Speaker 1>I've met a lot of milestones. I've had a lot

614
00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:05.719
<v Speaker 1>of goals. I've had a lot of achievements and accomplishments

615
00:35:05.719 --> 00:35:08.599
<v Speaker 1>in my life, and the joy's always been fleeting. I

616
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:10.400
<v Speaker 1>go on this trip, I'm ready for the next trip.

617
00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:12.119
<v Speaker 1>I date this guy, I want the next guy. It's

618
00:35:12.159 --> 00:35:17.000
<v Speaker 1>like it's constantly this hamster wheel of chasing fun and

619
00:35:17.039 --> 00:35:20.719
<v Speaker 1>happiness and joy. But when I'm giving, when I see

620
00:35:20.840 --> 00:35:23.559
<v Speaker 1>my students and my clients say, oh my god, like

621
00:35:23.840 --> 00:35:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I just have this clarity. I know exactly what I'm

622
00:35:25.880 --> 00:35:28.559
<v Speaker 1>supposed to do. I haven't felt this love in decades.

623
00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:32.960
<v Speaker 1>That is an indescribable feeling to me, and that feeling

624
00:35:33.039 --> 00:35:36.679
<v Speaker 1>actually sticks. So I just think that we're all deserving

625
00:35:36.840 --> 00:35:39.079
<v Speaker 1>of a life that we love. I think every single

626
00:35:39.159 --> 00:35:41.840
<v Speaker 1>human on this planet is capable of creating a life

627
00:35:41.840 --> 00:35:43.639
<v Speaker 1>that they love. It just takes a little bit of

628
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:46.159
<v Speaker 1>healing and connecting the dots of the things that you love,

629
00:35:46.719 --> 00:35:48.760
<v Speaker 1>and then having the courage to take that action on

630
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:49.639
<v Speaker 1>a daily basis.

631
00:35:51.480 --> 00:35:55.559
<v Speaker 2>In your experience, what would you say is the percentage

632
00:35:55.599 --> 00:35:58.639
<v Speaker 2>of people who are doing what their life purpose is

633
00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:04.480
<v Speaker 2>versus those who are stuck in a job or in

634
00:36:04.519 --> 00:36:05.679
<v Speaker 2>a lifestyle that is.

635
00:36:07.239 --> 00:36:08.000
<v Speaker 3>Manufacturer.

636
00:36:08.079 --> 00:36:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Perhaps the parents suggested it and they went through life

637
00:36:11.400 --> 00:36:13.599
<v Speaker 2>following their parents' guidance. I think a lot of people

638
00:36:13.639 --> 00:36:16.519
<v Speaker 2>do this, by the way. Yes I'll go to school, Yes,

639
00:36:16.559 --> 00:36:18.599
<v Speaker 2>mom and dad, I'll be a doctor. Yes, mom and dad,

640
00:36:18.639 --> 00:36:22.880
<v Speaker 2>I'll get this kind of job. And they're miserable. Yeah,

641
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:27.679
<v Speaker 2>but talk a bit about in your experience now since

642
00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:33.880
<v Speaker 2>you've launched Mastery, people who are in the right place.

643
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:39.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's a pretty depressing statistic. If you're going

644
00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:41.840
<v Speaker 1>to make me put a number on it, the amount

645
00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:44.039
<v Speaker 1>of people who are actually living their life purpose, I

646
00:36:44.079 --> 00:36:48.239
<v Speaker 1>would say less than ten percent. But the really important

647
00:36:48.239 --> 00:36:52.440
<v Speaker 1>piece to that is that nothing is wasted. What you're

648
00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:55.280
<v Speaker 1>doing right now, the occupation that you've chosen, there's a

649
00:36:55.360 --> 00:36:57.960
<v Speaker 1>reason for that. So I don't want anyone to feel

650
00:36:58.000 --> 00:37:00.360
<v Speaker 1>down on themselves right now and to feel like they've

651
00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:04.760
<v Speaker 1>lost time, because that's not true either. Whatever job you've

652
00:37:04.840 --> 00:37:07.000
<v Speaker 1>chosen right now has given you a set of skills,

653
00:37:07.360 --> 00:37:10.000
<v Speaker 1>has given you relationships, has given you a network, has

654
00:37:10.039 --> 00:37:12.280
<v Speaker 1>given you experience, and a lot of that is going

655
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:14.800
<v Speaker 1>to be transferable, and a lot of that also has

656
00:37:14.880 --> 00:37:18.960
<v Speaker 1>clues into the next level or the next path that

657
00:37:19.000 --> 00:37:22.920
<v Speaker 1>you're meant to pursue. I had a long career in

658
00:37:22.960 --> 00:37:26.039
<v Speaker 1>advertising and marketing, and none of that has been wasted.

659
00:37:26.119 --> 00:37:28.840
<v Speaker 1>I used all of that knowledge to build my personal brand.

660
00:37:29.159 --> 00:37:31.800
<v Speaker 1>I've used all of that to build the brand for Mastery,

661
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:35.039
<v Speaker 1>and all of those colleagues, a lot of them have

662
00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:38.320
<v Speaker 1>started my breathwork journey with me, coming to my community classes.

663
00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:41.199
<v Speaker 1>A lot of those people have become investors in my company.

664
00:37:41.599 --> 00:37:44.599
<v Speaker 1>So nothing is wasted where you are now, but there's

665
00:37:44.639 --> 00:37:47.920
<v Speaker 1>just an opportunity for you to find more fulfillment in

666
00:37:48.039 --> 00:37:48.920
<v Speaker 1>what you do next.

667
00:37:49.679 --> 00:37:51.239
<v Speaker 3>I like that. That's great.

668
00:37:51.760 --> 00:37:54.760
<v Speaker 2>You haven't talked about the higher self or the soul

669
00:37:55.760 --> 00:37:59.840
<v Speaker 2>and how they influence our decision making. Will you say

670
00:37:59.840 --> 00:38:02.840
<v Speaker 2>that through your breath work technique that you're having more

671
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:07.280
<v Speaker 2>of communication with this higher level of your consciousness, which

672
00:38:07.360 --> 00:38:10.840
<v Speaker 2>I call either the higher self or the soul?

673
00:38:12.280 --> 00:38:17.519
<v Speaker 1>Great question. Yeah, breath is that direct connection to the

674
00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:20.960
<v Speaker 1>higher version of yourself? So what is happening physiologically is

675
00:38:20.960 --> 00:38:23.519
<v Speaker 1>you're changing the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in

676
00:38:23.519 --> 00:38:26.000
<v Speaker 1>your body. What that does is it starts to quiet

677
00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:28.880
<v Speaker 1>down the default mode network or what I consider the ego,

678
00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:32.679
<v Speaker 1>that's the really loud mental chatter. That's the protective mechanisms,

679
00:38:32.719 --> 00:38:35.519
<v Speaker 1>that's the analytical mind. And you start to expand your

680
00:38:35.519 --> 00:38:38.440
<v Speaker 1>consciousness and you activate different regions of the brain. You

681
00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:41.840
<v Speaker 1>go into your subconscious, and your subconscious is the storehouse.

682
00:38:42.599 --> 00:38:45.679
<v Speaker 1>That's where all of your memories, everything that's inspired you,

683
00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:49.119
<v Speaker 1>your beliefs, your values, your emotions, everything lives in your subconscious.

684
00:38:49.360 --> 00:38:52.199
<v Speaker 1>So breath takes you to this more expansive place where

685
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:54.719
<v Speaker 1>you have more options, you have more possibilities, you have

686
00:38:54.800 --> 00:38:58.199
<v Speaker 1>more visions, you have more downloads. And the interesting thing

687
00:38:58.239 --> 00:39:00.480
<v Speaker 1>that starts to happen is when we play the music

688
00:39:00.519 --> 00:39:02.800
<v Speaker 1>and when we say the right cues. You know, if

689
00:39:02.840 --> 00:39:05.159
<v Speaker 1>I said to you Cliff in a song for you know,

690
00:39:05.159 --> 00:39:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I want you to see the highest version of your life.

691
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:08.400
<v Speaker 1>I want you to see your dream home. I want

692
00:39:08.400 --> 00:39:09.719
<v Speaker 1>you to see the travel, I want you to see

693
00:39:09.719 --> 00:39:12.679
<v Speaker 1>your family, you will all of a sudden get these pictures.

694
00:39:13.320 --> 00:39:15.599
<v Speaker 1>And the really cool thing is I feel like there's

695
00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:20.960
<v Speaker 1>a really beautiful distinction between visualization and visioning because visualization

696
00:39:21.079 --> 00:39:23.760
<v Speaker 1>we sort of curate that image. And again, when you're

697
00:39:23.800 --> 00:39:27.400
<v Speaker 1>breathing and you're visualizing, the defenses and the doubt and

698
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:30.360
<v Speaker 1>what you can create are down and then you have

699
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:34.760
<v Speaker 1>this opportunity to see something bigger. But when you're visioning,

700
00:39:35.239 --> 00:39:38.519
<v Speaker 1>that's a download from the universe. That's just like this

701
00:39:38.639 --> 00:39:42.280
<v Speaker 1>picture that gets dropped down and you're like, oh, whoa,

702
00:39:42.440 --> 00:39:44.639
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that was the north Star. And now

703
00:39:44.639 --> 00:39:47.400
<v Speaker 1>I have had this clarity of where I'm going. I

704
00:39:47.400 --> 00:39:50.599
<v Speaker 1>can give you a specific example to help paint that picture.

705
00:39:50.920 --> 00:39:53.039
<v Speaker 1>You know, when I started breathwork coaching, I've always been

706
00:39:53.280 --> 00:39:55.320
<v Speaker 1>pretty ambitious, so I was like, all right, if I'm

707
00:39:55.320 --> 00:39:56.679
<v Speaker 1>going to become a breathwork coach, I'm going to be

708
00:39:56.719 --> 00:39:58.679
<v Speaker 1>on Goop. I'm going to do sessions for Gwyneth Paltrow,

709
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Reese Witherspoon, Jenna and I'm going to go to this

710
00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:04.159
<v Speaker 1>is like going to be my clients. Hell and I

711
00:40:04.239 --> 00:40:06.760
<v Speaker 1>would do breathwork and it was like, no, You're going

712
00:40:06.800 --> 00:40:09.719
<v Speaker 1>on a book tour, and I was like, whoa, I'm

713
00:40:09.760 --> 00:40:12.960
<v Speaker 1>an author. So that was a vision that I got

714
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:15.880
<v Speaker 1>from breathwork before I really started writing or I even

715
00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:17.800
<v Speaker 1>had plans to put a book out into the world.

716
00:40:18.960 --> 00:40:21.920
<v Speaker 1>That vision came through and then I knew exactly where

717
00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I was going that I wasn't meant to be the

718
00:40:23.519 --> 00:40:26.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, the celebrity breathwork coach. I was actually meant

719
00:40:26.559 --> 00:40:27.159
<v Speaker 1>to write a book.

720
00:40:27.960 --> 00:40:35.719
<v Speaker 2>I think we all aspire for the celebrity support and acknowledgment,

721
00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:37.679
<v Speaker 2>but that's not always realistic.

722
00:40:37.880 --> 00:40:38.800
<v Speaker 3>I think. Is what you're.

723
00:40:38.719 --> 00:40:43.079
<v Speaker 1>Suggesting it manifesting from your ego versus your soul.

724
00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:48.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly, very good talk about the dynamics of breath

725
00:40:48.360 --> 00:40:51.159
<v Speaker 2>work and what happens when we breathe in a certain manner.

726
00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:55.480
<v Speaker 2>What is access number one, what is cleared number two

727
00:40:56.199 --> 00:40:59.679
<v Speaker 2>and number three? How it.

728
00:41:01.440 --> 00:41:02.199
<v Speaker 3>Sustains you.

729
00:41:04.920 --> 00:41:09.119
<v Speaker 1>So breathwork always finds the highest emotional charge, and that's

730
00:41:09.719 --> 00:41:12.199
<v Speaker 1>a little terrifying because you can't hide from the breath.

731
00:41:12.880 --> 00:41:15.000
<v Speaker 1>So I have a lot of clients come in and

732
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:18.360
<v Speaker 1>they're like, you know, I'm really frustrated with my wife today.

733
00:41:19.000 --> 00:41:22.039
<v Speaker 1>She really triggered me. And then we'll go into breathwork

734
00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:24.400
<v Speaker 1>and they'll see the seven year old boy whose mom

735
00:41:24.519 --> 00:41:28.400
<v Speaker 1>is reprimanding him and feels alone. You know. So it

736
00:41:28.559 --> 00:41:32.119
<v Speaker 1>always finds the highest emotional charge. Or I'll have clients

737
00:41:32.119 --> 00:41:33.760
<v Speaker 1>that are like, you know, I'm really pissed off at

738
00:41:33.800 --> 00:41:37.360
<v Speaker 1>my boss, and then they'll see infidelity and their breath

739
00:41:37.400 --> 00:41:39.920
<v Speaker 1>work and they're actually feeling ashamed of themselves. Yeah, So

740
00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:44.719
<v Speaker 1>breath always finds what is lingering most loud in your body,

741
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:47.480
<v Speaker 1>that's blocking your energy. So that is something that's always

742
00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:50.440
<v Speaker 1>fascinated me, and even as someone who thought I was

743
00:41:50.480 --> 00:41:54.320
<v Speaker 1>extremely self aware, even recently, I'll share a personal story

744
00:41:54.360 --> 00:41:57.800
<v Speaker 1>with you, Cliff. You know, I came off a week

745
00:41:58.480 --> 00:42:00.599
<v Speaker 1>of a grind on this book launch. You know, I

746
00:42:00.679 --> 00:42:03.039
<v Speaker 1>was in like seven cities in two weeks. I was

747
00:42:03.119 --> 00:42:06.199
<v Speaker 1>extremely exhausted by the time I got home, and I

748
00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:08.679
<v Speaker 1>was convinced that my partner was not being supportive enough,

749
00:42:09.000 --> 00:42:10.519
<v Speaker 1>and I was so mad at him. I was like,

750
00:42:10.840 --> 00:42:12.960
<v Speaker 1>can't you have more patience with me? Couldn't you just

751
00:42:13.039 --> 00:42:15.760
<v Speaker 1>have like dinner ready? Like don't you know I need sleep? Like,

752
00:42:15.840 --> 00:42:19.440
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, what couldn't he be so not understanding

753
00:42:19.519 --> 00:42:22.960
<v Speaker 1>of my schedule? Like what is his problem? I was

754
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:26.320
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent sure that he was the problem. I

755
00:42:26.400 --> 00:42:29.119
<v Speaker 1>went into breathwork the next morning and I saw and

756
00:42:29.280 --> 00:42:33.119
<v Speaker 1>I was bawling because this reflection and revelation was so

757
00:42:33.400 --> 00:42:35.920
<v Speaker 1>enlightening to me. But I was like, I'm the problem.

758
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:40.840
<v Speaker 1>I have completely deprioritized my relationship because of this book launch.

759
00:42:41.599 --> 00:42:43.199
<v Speaker 1>I have put him on the back burner, I have

760
00:42:43.320 --> 00:42:45.519
<v Speaker 1>not showed up, and now I'm expecting more from him,

761
00:42:45.639 --> 00:42:49.079
<v Speaker 1>but I'm giving less. And I was like, holy shit,

762
00:42:49.480 --> 00:42:51.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm in the wrong. And I couldn't believe it, Cliff,

763
00:42:51.599 --> 00:42:53.119
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't believe I was the one in the flown.

764
00:42:54.599 --> 00:42:56.800
<v Speaker 1>That's what breath does is it gets to the truth.

765
00:42:57.400 --> 00:42:59.800
<v Speaker 1>It gets to your most authentic truth, and you can

766
00:43:00.000 --> 00:43:03.679
<v Speaker 1>never escape the real emotion that's really residing in your body.

767
00:43:03.760 --> 00:43:06.400
<v Speaker 1>So that's one thing that I just really love about it,

768
00:43:06.480 --> 00:43:07.880
<v Speaker 1>and that's why I also think that you have to

769
00:43:07.920 --> 00:43:11.039
<v Speaker 1>do it consistently because even somebody who's been breathing every

770
00:43:11.119 --> 00:43:14.360
<v Speaker 1>day for five years, I'm still coming up against areas

771
00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:17.599
<v Speaker 1>where I'm wrong and my conscious mind is, you know,

772
00:43:18.079 --> 00:43:22.719
<v Speaker 1>disconnected to my subconscious motivations. So while you can definitely

773
00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:25.519
<v Speaker 1>have cathartic releases that are life changing in one session,

774
00:43:25.599 --> 00:43:27.800
<v Speaker 1>which I've had several of those, and they've changed a

775
00:43:27.840 --> 00:43:32.199
<v Speaker 1>behavior pattern from one trigger being dissolved or one revelation

776
00:43:32.519 --> 00:43:36.079
<v Speaker 1>being just completely exposed from the route, I have to

777
00:43:36.159 --> 00:43:38.440
<v Speaker 1>do this consistently, which is why I built the app,

778
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:40.519
<v Speaker 1>because I know we all need to do this consistently

779
00:43:40.519 --> 00:43:43.280
<v Speaker 1>because there's been too much conditioning. There's been too many

780
00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:46.880
<v Speaker 1>stories or expectations from our parents or society or brainwashing

781
00:43:47.480 --> 00:43:50.199
<v Speaker 1>that we have to do this work every single morning,

782
00:43:50.480 --> 00:43:52.719
<v Speaker 1>every single day. Take action from that place in order

783
00:43:52.880 --> 00:43:54.519
<v Speaker 1>for the results to really last.

784
00:43:54.800 --> 00:43:56.519
<v Speaker 2>Now, you just said something that I was going to

785
00:43:56.599 --> 00:43:59.000
<v Speaker 2>ask you, and that is that this is a daily

786
00:43:59.119 --> 00:44:02.880
<v Speaker 2>practice that you're esting. You cannot skip a day, a

787
00:44:02.960 --> 00:44:04.239
<v Speaker 2>week or whatever and.

788
00:44:04.440 --> 00:44:05.119
<v Speaker 3>Come back to it.

789
00:44:06.719 --> 00:44:08.719
<v Speaker 1>It's like working out, you know. I say this to

790
00:44:08.800 --> 00:44:11.000
<v Speaker 1>my athletes all the time. I'm like, would you work

791
00:44:11.039 --> 00:44:13.760
<v Speaker 1>out one time and expect to be physically fit? Yeah,

792
00:44:14.360 --> 00:44:16.400
<v Speaker 1>these are muscles that you have to exercise, and we're

793
00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:19.000
<v Speaker 1>developing them and we're building them. We're building our intuition,

794
00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:21.320
<v Speaker 1>we're building our self trust, we're building our self worth.

795
00:44:21.760 --> 00:44:24.000
<v Speaker 1>So twenty minutes every morning. I've made it as short

796
00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:27.239
<v Speaker 1>as I possibly can, and I recommend doing it first

797
00:44:27.280 --> 00:44:28.000
<v Speaker 1>thing when you wake up.

798
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:31.400
<v Speaker 3>It sounds amazing.

799
00:44:31.719 --> 00:44:34.559
<v Speaker 2>I want to go over some points that you make

800
00:44:34.639 --> 00:44:42.920
<v Speaker 2>in your book, including unblocking, higher levels of consciousness, enhancing clarity, cognition.

801
00:44:43.159 --> 00:44:49.599
<v Speaker 2>That's a huge, huge area. Cognition is in the in

802
00:44:49.719 --> 00:44:55.039
<v Speaker 2>our literature right now because people are having declines of

803
00:44:55.239 --> 00:44:59.880
<v Speaker 2>cognition as we age, and I think listening to the

804
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:02.840
<v Speaker 2>you and the work that I understand breath work probably

805
00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:07.320
<v Speaker 2>would enhance that. But talk about the higher levels of consciousness.

806
00:45:07.400 --> 00:45:11.960
<v Speaker 3>What are you referring to when you're doing this breath work.

807
00:45:13.840 --> 00:45:18.679
<v Speaker 1>So you're oxygenating your body, You're basically breathing new life

808
00:45:18.840 --> 00:45:22.719
<v Speaker 1>into your brain. And when we talk about flow states,

809
00:45:22.880 --> 00:45:26.280
<v Speaker 1>that's optimal consciousness. That's when things are effortlessly flowing. You're

810
00:45:26.320 --> 00:45:30.079
<v Speaker 1>intrinsically motivated, you feel challenged, but you feel productive, but

811
00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:33.320
<v Speaker 1>you're also in alignment. It's this perfect sweet spot. So

812
00:45:33.519 --> 00:45:36.880
<v Speaker 1>what I discovered is when I needed to monetize as

813
00:45:36.920 --> 00:45:39.320
<v Speaker 1>a breathwork coach, I treated it like an ad exac

814
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:41.840
<v Speaker 1>and I created an entire war room in my bedroom.

815
00:45:42.119 --> 00:45:46.079
<v Speaker 1>I had physiological benefits, psychological benefits, spiritual benefits, media channels,

816
00:45:46.119 --> 00:45:48.800
<v Speaker 1>content pillars, partnership strategies. All this was up on a

817
00:45:48.880 --> 00:45:52.159
<v Speaker 1>wall and then I would breathe, and all of a sudden,

818
00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:56.000
<v Speaker 1>my brain and the higher states of consciousness would make

819
00:45:56.199 --> 00:45:59.679
<v Speaker 1>new innovative connections that I didn't logically see. So it

820
00:45:59.840 --> 00:46:03.960
<v Speaker 1>was reach out to this former employee, offer this benefit

821
00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:06.159
<v Speaker 1>in this format and make a video about it, and

822
00:46:06.239 --> 00:46:08.800
<v Speaker 1>then send it in your email newsletter and it would

823
00:46:08.880 --> 00:46:11.159
<v Speaker 1>just get like a mind map. It would connect all

824
00:46:11.239 --> 00:46:13.840
<v Speaker 1>of these dots every single morning, and I would get

825
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:17.159
<v Speaker 1>marketing strategies and I would get ideas for business. So

826
00:46:17.239 --> 00:46:19.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought to myself, could I bring this to corporate?

827
00:46:20.519 --> 00:46:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Can I bring this to different industries and have their

828
00:46:23.039 --> 00:46:25.599
<v Speaker 1>teams focus on a vision, on a mission, on a project,

829
00:46:25.639 --> 00:46:28.199
<v Speaker 1>on a concept, and have everyone get into a collective

830
00:46:28.239 --> 00:46:32.239
<v Speaker 1>flow state. Feel rejuvenized, feel re energized, feel motivated, see

831
00:46:32.280 --> 00:46:34.920
<v Speaker 1>their part in the team dynamic. And it happened every

832
00:46:34.920 --> 00:46:37.440
<v Speaker 1>single time I did a session for three hundred employees

833
00:46:37.440 --> 00:46:39.440
<v Speaker 1>at Deloitte, I said, how are you guys feeling? Put

834
00:46:39.480 --> 00:46:43.639
<v Speaker 1>into the chat box? You know they were tired, stressed, drained, exhausted,

835
00:46:43.719 --> 00:46:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Da da da da. Twenty minutes later, inspired, rejuvenated, light clear.

836
00:46:47.960 --> 00:46:52.280
<v Speaker 1>Can we please do this every week? Amazing reflesh twenty

837
00:46:52.360 --> 00:46:55.960
<v Speaker 1>minutes and I had them focus on specific tasks and

838
00:46:56.079 --> 00:46:59.000
<v Speaker 1>then I said, what's your next action step? And every

839
00:46:59.039 --> 00:47:02.400
<v Speaker 1>employee said, delegate this set a meeting with my manager,

840
00:47:02.559 --> 00:47:04.519
<v Speaker 1>do the brainstorm, get this off my to do list.

841
00:47:04.679 --> 00:47:10.320
<v Speaker 1>They had clarity, they had creativity, their energy was rejuvenated,

842
00:47:10.760 --> 00:47:13.400
<v Speaker 1>and I just discovered this through my own self experimentation

843
00:47:13.519 --> 00:47:15.800
<v Speaker 1>that we could get into these flow states. So what

844
00:47:15.960 --> 00:47:18.280
<v Speaker 1>ended up happening was I did every every single day.

845
00:47:19.559 --> 00:47:22.159
<v Speaker 1>You know, again, we talked about the transition from corporate

846
00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:24.599
<v Speaker 1>to entrepreneurship is really hard, and it's not just that

847
00:47:24.840 --> 00:47:27.000
<v Speaker 1>the day that you make the leap, all of those

848
00:47:27.079 --> 00:47:29.519
<v Speaker 1>fears and doubts go out the window. I still get

849
00:47:29.559 --> 00:47:31.920
<v Speaker 1>them in mastery, like holy shit, how am I going

850
00:47:32.000 --> 00:47:33.519
<v Speaker 1>to do this? And then I just breathe, I connect

851
00:47:33.559 --> 00:47:35.320
<v Speaker 1>back to the vision, I get my next action step,

852
00:47:35.320 --> 00:47:39.400
<v Speaker 1>and I keep going. So the cognition really what ends

853
00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:41.519
<v Speaker 1>up happening is you get all these ideas and once

854
00:47:41.559 --> 00:47:44.320
<v Speaker 1>you execute on them, it also built your confidence. Now

855
00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:47.400
<v Speaker 1>you're in integrity with yourself and every day you just

856
00:47:47.480 --> 00:47:51.000
<v Speaker 1>keep getting sharper. You're clearer, your problem solving, your articulation,

857
00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:55.599
<v Speaker 1>your retention, your decision making. Everything is happening at heightened

858
00:47:55.639 --> 00:47:58.280
<v Speaker 1>speeds and heightened focused. So it triggers me so much

859
00:47:58.280 --> 00:48:00.000
<v Speaker 1>when people are like, I don't have twenty minutes to breathe,

860
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:01.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, you know, twenty minutes to not breathe. I

861
00:48:01.920 --> 00:48:04.440
<v Speaker 1>can write the email, do that website, send out the presentation,

862
00:48:04.559 --> 00:48:06.320
<v Speaker 1>do the pitch deck in a quarter of the time

863
00:48:06.599 --> 00:48:07.760
<v Speaker 1>because my mom is so clear.

864
00:48:11.199 --> 00:48:13.480
<v Speaker 2>We're going to take a short commercial break to allow

865
00:48:13.559 --> 00:48:17.599
<v Speaker 2>our sponsors to identify themselves, and we will return shortly

866
00:48:17.679 --> 00:48:23.599
<v Speaker 2>with my guest today, Francesca Simpma discussing her newest book,

867
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:25.760
<v Speaker 2>Unblock Your Purpose.

868
00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:29.280
<v Speaker 3>We'll be right back.

869
00:49:17.880 --> 00:49:21.480
<v Speaker 2>My guest today is Francesca Simmashi has written a new

870
00:49:21.559 --> 00:49:25.519
<v Speaker 2>book on breath work called Unlock Your Purpose, and we're

871
00:49:25.719 --> 00:49:29.760
<v Speaker 2>hearing about the techniques that are used to draw on

872
00:49:30.280 --> 00:49:35.840
<v Speaker 2>a higher level of consciousness, also cognition and the ability

873
00:49:35.920 --> 00:49:42.320
<v Speaker 2>to function in a higher state. I think one thing

874
00:49:42.559 --> 00:49:45.159
<v Speaker 2>that we also need to let people know, and I'd

875
00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:46.800
<v Speaker 2>like to hear from you real quickly on this is

876
00:49:46.840 --> 00:49:49.119
<v Speaker 2>the fact that you don't need to leave your job

877
00:49:50.079 --> 00:49:54.920
<v Speaker 2>to become an entrepreneur. You are being enhanced, is what

878
00:49:55.199 --> 00:49:59.199
<v Speaker 2>it sounds like you're suggesting, and these enhancements can make

879
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:00.880
<v Speaker 2>you better at your job. Job right, talk a little

880
00:50:00.920 --> 00:50:04.960
<v Speaker 2>bit about not necessarily bolting from your job, but perhaps

881
00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:07.920
<v Speaker 2>becoming the different person through this breath work.

882
00:50:09.360 --> 00:50:11.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to be really clear that I do not

883
00:50:11.519 --> 00:50:15.440
<v Speaker 1>recommend entrepreneurship and quitting corporate for everyone at all. Entrepreneurship

884
00:50:15.639 --> 00:50:19.119
<v Speaker 1>has its hardships, just like corporate environments do. And some

885
00:50:19.280 --> 00:50:22.599
<v Speaker 1>people like having systems and processes and working with teams

886
00:50:22.639 --> 00:50:25.000
<v Speaker 1>that have already been developed, and I'm all for that,

887
00:50:25.760 --> 00:50:29.840
<v Speaker 1>But breathwork makes everyone better because it makes you more

888
00:50:29.880 --> 00:50:34.880
<v Speaker 1>attuned to yourself. You're exhaling out stress, You're exhaling out anxiety.

889
00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:40.480
<v Speaker 1>You're exhaling out any anxious, any tension, any repressed sadness

890
00:50:40.760 --> 00:50:44.199
<v Speaker 1>or grief or guilt or shame that's living in your body.

891
00:50:44.280 --> 00:50:47.360
<v Speaker 1>That's what's happening on a physiological level when you're breathing

892
00:50:47.440 --> 00:50:50.920
<v Speaker 1>into your parasympathetic nervous system. And then with the hypnotic

893
00:50:51.039 --> 00:50:54.679
<v Speaker 1>vocal cues, we're giving you focus. See the project, see

894
00:50:54.719 --> 00:50:58.480
<v Speaker 1>the pitch, see the email, see the campaign, see the sale.

895
00:50:59.760 --> 00:51:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Then and you're having that visualization of Okay, it's closing.

896
00:51:03.000 --> 00:51:05.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting the outcome that I want. I'm hitting that goal.

897
00:51:05.119 --> 00:51:06.639
<v Speaker 1>What does that feel like? What does that look like?

898
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:09.800
<v Speaker 1>And what is that version of you do next? How

899
00:51:09.880 --> 00:51:11.559
<v Speaker 1>do you show up in the room, how do you

900
00:51:11.599 --> 00:51:13.360
<v Speaker 1>walk in the room. What's your tone, what's your energy?

901
00:51:13.400 --> 00:51:15.039
<v Speaker 1>What's your demeanor? What are the words that you say?

902
00:51:15.119 --> 00:51:17.400
<v Speaker 1>What's the message that's going to be received, and now

903
00:51:17.480 --> 00:51:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you're doing everything on a completely different level and your

904
00:51:21.119 --> 00:51:22.760
<v Speaker 1>energy is felt and your words are felt.

905
00:51:23.159 --> 00:51:23.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I like that.

906
00:51:24.280 --> 00:51:27.280
<v Speaker 2>I think the one area and just talk briefly about

907
00:51:27.360 --> 00:51:29.679
<v Speaker 2>this because this comes up a lot in corporate world.

908
00:51:30.360 --> 00:51:35.920
<v Speaker 2>Toxic toxic environments, a toxic boss, a toxic theme, a

909
00:51:36.039 --> 00:51:41.199
<v Speaker 2>toxic group. I mean when I work for PayPal, we

910
00:51:41.400 --> 00:51:46.519
<v Speaker 2>had not only individuals who were toxic, but we had

911
00:51:46.719 --> 00:51:50.599
<v Speaker 2>groups that were formed and one of the leaders would

912
00:51:50.599 --> 00:51:53.599
<v Speaker 2>be toxic and kind of influence everybody. You can't get

913
00:51:53.599 --> 00:51:58.960
<v Speaker 2>away from that. But if you are aware of this toxicity,

914
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:03.400
<v Speaker 2>you can compromise it and you can perhaps work around it,

915
00:52:03.920 --> 00:52:05.960
<v Speaker 2>and then ultimately, if it continues, we want to get

916
00:52:05.960 --> 00:52:08.039
<v Speaker 2>the hell out of there. But talk a little bit

917
00:52:08.079 --> 00:52:11.639
<v Speaker 2>about that. That's a huge, big problem in corporate life.

918
00:52:11.639 --> 00:52:12.639
<v Speaker 2>You know what I'm talking about.

919
00:52:13.480 --> 00:52:15.280
<v Speaker 1>I know what you're talking about. And it's reminding me

920
00:52:15.400 --> 00:52:19.440
<v Speaker 1>of this very high up CFO that I did a

921
00:52:19.519 --> 00:52:22.320
<v Speaker 1>session on and I remember him coming out of the

922
00:52:22.440 --> 00:52:25.519
<v Speaker 1>session and it was so shocking. He just said, Oh,

923
00:52:25.599 --> 00:52:27.599
<v Speaker 1>I just realized why I'm such an asshole to my team.

924
00:52:27.639 --> 00:52:28.599
<v Speaker 1>It's because I hate my mother.

925
00:52:29.320 --> 00:52:29.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh.

926
00:52:32.440 --> 00:52:36.320
<v Speaker 1>I was like, whoa, We're projecting a lot of your

927
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:40.119
<v Speaker 1>own personal stuff onto your team. So the other really

928
00:52:40.280 --> 00:52:43.119
<v Speaker 1>cool advantage of breath work is because it gets you

929
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:45.199
<v Speaker 1>out of your own head and it gets you out

930
00:52:45.199 --> 00:52:48.039
<v Speaker 1>of your own vantage point, you actually start to have

931
00:52:48.159 --> 00:52:51.480
<v Speaker 1>compassion for other people around you. So we can do

932
00:52:51.559 --> 00:52:54.000
<v Speaker 1>this in a multitude of ways. I can say, Cliff,

933
00:52:54.079 --> 00:52:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I want you to close your eyes, I want you

934
00:52:55.519 --> 00:52:58.199
<v Speaker 1>to breathe, and I want you to see your partner,

935
00:52:58.239 --> 00:52:59.639
<v Speaker 1>I want you to see your children, I want you

936
00:52:59.679 --> 00:53:02.239
<v Speaker 1>to see you colleague, and all of a sudden, defenses

937
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:05.639
<v Speaker 1>are down and you're like, whoa, they're just also really hurt.

938
00:53:05.800 --> 00:53:08.880
<v Speaker 1>They're not feeling heard, they're feeling frustrated. You know, you'll

939
00:53:09.079 --> 00:53:11.639
<v Speaker 1>immediately see that this person's not just out to get you.

940
00:53:11.760 --> 00:53:13.480
<v Speaker 1>You don't need to take it personally. They're not just

941
00:53:13.519 --> 00:53:16.679
<v Speaker 1>an idiot. You're actually breathing and you're seeing a completely

942
00:53:16.719 --> 00:53:19.000
<v Speaker 1>different perspective. And you can do the same thing with teams.

943
00:53:19.559 --> 00:53:22.400
<v Speaker 1>I think the biggest disconnect in these toxic environments is,

944
00:53:23.239 --> 00:53:25.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, upper management feels a lot of pressure. They're

945
00:53:26.000 --> 00:53:29.119
<v Speaker 1>probably frustrated because they feel like they're working, you know,

946
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:31.599
<v Speaker 1>to a certain degree, and maybe other people aren't living

947
00:53:31.679 --> 00:53:33.559
<v Speaker 1>up to that, and then a lot of employees are

948
00:53:33.559 --> 00:53:36.239
<v Speaker 1>frustrated because upper management has absolutely no respect for their

949
00:53:36.280 --> 00:53:39.440
<v Speaker 1>work life balance, and so all these two places are

950
00:53:39.480 --> 00:53:42.039
<v Speaker 1>at contention with each other. But there's a way for

951
00:53:42.199 --> 00:53:45.880
<v Speaker 1>us to a breathe out our expectations and our projections,

952
00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:48.880
<v Speaker 1>and then b also just have more clarity so that

953
00:53:48.960 --> 00:53:51.440
<v Speaker 1>we are performing at a higher level and we are

954
00:53:51.559 --> 00:53:54.960
<v Speaker 1>contributing to the team and being collaborative and being productive.

955
00:53:55.599 --> 00:53:57.519
<v Speaker 1>So it's instead of a mixed bag, it's saying, you know,

956
00:53:57.599 --> 00:53:59.639
<v Speaker 1>we do sessions on compassion empathy, and then we do

957
00:54:00.280 --> 00:54:01.400
<v Speaker 1>on peak performance and focus.

958
00:54:01.760 --> 00:54:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, amazing. Let's go through a couple of more of

959
00:54:05.079 --> 00:54:08.000
<v Speaker 2>these points that you highlight in your book, and then

960
00:54:08.000 --> 00:54:11.360
<v Speaker 2>we want to get into some case studies of some

961
00:54:11.519 --> 00:54:14.559
<v Speaker 2>of your clients and people who have got through the program.

962
00:54:15.320 --> 00:54:18.280
<v Speaker 2>The other one is enhance clarity. How do we get

963
00:54:18.440 --> 00:54:21.199
<v Speaker 2>enhanced clarity? Which is a good one because if you're

964
00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:25.760
<v Speaker 2>bogged down with a problem and you're not able to

965
00:54:25.880 --> 00:54:29.760
<v Speaker 2>get through it, enhance clarity will chop away at.

966
00:54:29.719 --> 00:54:33.320
<v Speaker 3>That and you'll get hopefully the results the answers.

967
00:54:34.360 --> 00:54:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so the enhanced clarity is just the pumping of

968
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:40.639
<v Speaker 1>the breath is again, it's bringing more oxygen into your body.

969
00:54:41.039 --> 00:54:45.639
<v Speaker 1>It's quieting down the deep the prefrontal cortex and analytical mind.

970
00:54:45.719 --> 00:54:48.280
<v Speaker 1>It's giving you more options, it's giving you more creativity,

971
00:54:48.760 --> 00:54:51.920
<v Speaker 1>giving you more solutions. And so with the right music,

972
00:54:52.039 --> 00:54:54.559
<v Speaker 1>with the right vocal cue, if I say, what's your

973
00:54:54.599 --> 00:54:57.159
<v Speaker 1>next step on that project? How do you scale this podcast?

974
00:54:57.280 --> 00:54:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Who's the person that you want to partner with? What

975
00:54:59.039 --> 00:55:00.239
<v Speaker 1>do you need to say to them? How do you

976
00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:02.679
<v Speaker 1>present it? What's the real that you need to create

977
00:55:03.159 --> 00:55:05.639
<v Speaker 1>that your mind will immediately start to find solutions for

978
00:55:05.719 --> 00:55:08.039
<v Speaker 1>that thing. And that makes you feel extremely clear, and

979
00:55:08.119 --> 00:55:09.719
<v Speaker 1>when you take extion on that, it also makes you

980
00:55:09.840 --> 00:55:10.639
<v Speaker 1>extremely confident.

981
00:55:11.000 --> 00:55:13.519
<v Speaker 2>Okay, and that gets into our next one, which is cognition,

982
00:55:14.519 --> 00:55:18.639
<v Speaker 2>and that has to do also with brain function, brain

983
00:55:19.000 --> 00:55:22.199
<v Speaker 2>brain wellness, which we're not talking about, but I think

984
00:55:23.039 --> 00:55:27.519
<v Speaker 2>in many ways bringing in oxygen, oxygengating the brain helps

985
00:55:27.559 --> 00:55:28.039
<v Speaker 2>in that area.

986
00:55:28.119 --> 00:55:32.599
<v Speaker 1>Talk about cognition, Yeah, it's the same thing as the clarity,

987
00:55:33.719 --> 00:55:36.559
<v Speaker 1>But the other part to the cognition too, is you're

988
00:55:36.679 --> 00:55:40.559
<v Speaker 1>breathing out all these emotions that are creating energy blockages

989
00:55:40.599 --> 00:55:43.800
<v Speaker 1>in your body. When you're holding onto anger from twenty

990
00:55:43.880 --> 00:55:46.159
<v Speaker 1>years ago. You are not your clearest, You are not

991
00:55:46.360 --> 00:55:50.519
<v Speaker 1>functioning at your optimal performance. So as you get triggered

992
00:55:50.559 --> 00:55:52.719
<v Speaker 1>throughout the day because someone cuts you off in traffic,

993
00:55:53.079 --> 00:55:55.039
<v Speaker 1>or you know your partner didn't answer the phone when

994
00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:57.679
<v Speaker 1>you called, or whatever these things are. When you breed

995
00:55:57.760 --> 00:56:01.199
<v Speaker 1>those things out, they don't block your energy from flowing

996
00:56:01.920 --> 00:56:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and then giving you that clarity, that cognition, that creativity,

997
00:56:06.079 --> 00:56:07.880
<v Speaker 1>and all the brain power that can be used for

998
00:56:08.000 --> 00:56:09.039
<v Speaker 1>things that are more productive.

999
00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:14.119
<v Speaker 2>Have you been able to ascertain the levels of clarity

1000
00:56:14.400 --> 00:56:18.960
<v Speaker 2>and cognition in your own practice or do you actually

1001
00:56:19.199 --> 00:56:21.719
<v Speaker 2>have your students kind of look at it and do

1002
00:56:21.880 --> 00:56:25.639
<v Speaker 2>self assessment. I'm here, I need to be here, I

1003
00:56:25.719 --> 00:56:27.119
<v Speaker 2>need to be at this level. Do you do you

1004
00:56:27.199 --> 00:56:32.039
<v Speaker 2>have like a way to discover how successful the practice is.

1005
00:56:33.320 --> 00:56:36.639
<v Speaker 1>Our measurement is really through how close are you to

1006
00:56:36.719 --> 00:56:39.159
<v Speaker 1>the life that you want to create. So if I

1007
00:56:39.280 --> 00:56:41.280
<v Speaker 1>have people who are in you know, they come to

1008
00:56:41.360 --> 00:56:43.719
<v Speaker 1>me and they are completely depressed, They're miserable, they hate

1009
00:56:43.760 --> 00:56:45.519
<v Speaker 1>their jobs, they're in a relationship that they don't want

1010
00:56:45.519 --> 00:56:47.719
<v Speaker 1>to be in anymore. And then they go through my

1011
00:56:47.800 --> 00:56:50.440
<v Speaker 1>twelve week online program on block your Purpose and all

1012
00:56:50.440 --> 00:56:53.039
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, they've put that job. They're now doing

1013
00:56:53.119 --> 00:56:55.840
<v Speaker 1>breastwork in a yoga studio. You know, they're dating a

1014
00:56:55.960 --> 00:56:58.400
<v Speaker 1>guy that you know actually makes them feel safe and

1015
00:56:58.519 --> 00:57:00.679
<v Speaker 1>is consistent, makes them feel loved. So that's sort of

1016
00:57:00.679 --> 00:57:03.320
<v Speaker 1>the progress that we measure it in. How much of

1017
00:57:03.360 --> 00:57:05.079
<v Speaker 1>your dream life are you creating that trip that you

1018
00:57:05.079 --> 00:57:06.920
<v Speaker 1>saw in a breathwork session? Did you book the ticket?

1019
00:57:07.239 --> 00:57:09.079
<v Speaker 1>And I get selfies from them? You know, they're like, Hey,

1020
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:11.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm in Greece, just like I saw in my breathwork session.

1021
00:57:11.599 --> 00:57:15.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm hosting that street for this group. We have the

1022
00:57:15.679 --> 00:57:18.360
<v Speaker 1>intuitive actions that we kind of share with each other,

1023
00:57:18.639 --> 00:57:22.159
<v Speaker 1>and then once those intuitive actions come to life, then

1024
00:57:22.239 --> 00:57:23.760
<v Speaker 1>that's really the progress of success.

1025
00:57:24.679 --> 00:57:29.719
<v Speaker 2>But are there levels to clarity and cognition that you

1026
00:57:29.960 --> 00:57:33.559
<v Speaker 2>actually teach in this breath work.

1027
00:57:35.159 --> 00:57:38.679
<v Speaker 1>It's it can be actually more like task based or

1028
00:57:38.800 --> 00:57:41.199
<v Speaker 1>project based. So if we did a session right now,

1029
00:57:41.639 --> 00:57:43.480
<v Speaker 1>tell me something that you want to maybe grow or

1030
00:57:43.559 --> 00:57:44.320
<v Speaker 1>change in your business.

1031
00:57:46.360 --> 00:57:51.840
<v Speaker 2>More downloads, more listeners? Okay, great, is there every podcast

1032
00:57:52.000 --> 00:57:53.960
<v Speaker 2>or even Joe Rogan's going to say the same thing,

1033
00:57:54.239 --> 00:57:55.280
<v Speaker 2>I need another million?

1034
00:57:56.719 --> 00:58:00.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, no, but that's perfect. So when you're breathing, I

1035
00:58:00.360 --> 00:58:03.199
<v Speaker 1>might cue you. You know, first, let go of any emotion,

1036
00:58:03.320 --> 00:58:06.400
<v Speaker 1>any blockages, any anxiety, any stress from the holidays, or

1037
00:58:06.400 --> 00:58:08.760
<v Speaker 1>anything that's going on with your family. Then I'll in

1038
00:58:08.840 --> 00:58:10.639
<v Speaker 1>the middle of the breathwork session, I might say, I

1039
00:58:10.679 --> 00:58:13.119
<v Speaker 1>want you to see your podcast, and then I'm going

1040
00:58:13.199 --> 00:58:15.920
<v Speaker 1>to have you connect to why why did you start

1041
00:58:15.960 --> 00:58:18.039
<v Speaker 1>the show? What is it that you want your listeners

1042
00:58:18.079 --> 00:58:19.360
<v Speaker 1>to get the most out of it? And now you're

1043
00:58:19.360 --> 00:58:22.119
<v Speaker 1>connecting to a different emotion, right, You're connecting to service.

1044
00:58:22.679 --> 00:58:24.480
<v Speaker 1>And then I might say, what are the topics that

1045
00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:27.039
<v Speaker 1>you know are most culturally relevant that people need and

1046
00:58:27.079 --> 00:58:29.440
<v Speaker 1>people want to hear. Then maybe some ideas will start

1047
00:58:29.440 --> 00:58:32.639
<v Speaker 1>to percolate, and then I'll say, who is your ideal

1048
00:58:32.719 --> 00:58:34.840
<v Speaker 1>guest on this show? Who would you like to bring

1049
00:58:34.920 --> 00:58:36.719
<v Speaker 1>on in the show? Maybe a couple of ideas will

1050
00:58:36.719 --> 00:58:38.400
<v Speaker 1>come into your mind. Next, I'm going to say, I

1051
00:58:38.440 --> 00:58:41.239
<v Speaker 1>want you to see your show having a million more downloads,

1052
00:58:41.480 --> 00:58:43.599
<v Speaker 1>a million more listeners. What does that feel like? What

1053
00:58:43.679 --> 00:58:45.840
<v Speaker 1>does that look like? Get into that emotional state, get

1054
00:58:45.880 --> 00:58:48.360
<v Speaker 1>into that energy right now? Cool? What's your next action

1055
00:58:48.440 --> 00:58:51.480
<v Speaker 1>step towards that? And your intuition? I can't do it

1056
00:58:51.559 --> 00:58:53.960
<v Speaker 1>for you. Your intuition will tell you I need to

1057
00:58:54.039 --> 00:58:56.199
<v Speaker 1>hire this person, I need to do this social media campaign.

1058
00:58:56.199 --> 00:58:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I need to get on TikTok, I need to make

1059
00:58:58.360 --> 00:59:00.719
<v Speaker 1>more video content. I need to go to in and studios.

1060
00:59:00.840 --> 00:59:03.239
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea you're into will have it, and

1061
00:59:03.320 --> 00:59:05.920
<v Speaker 1>every other podcast hosts might have a completely different answer.

1062
00:59:06.519 --> 00:59:09.039
<v Speaker 1>But those vocal cues and getting you into the emotional

1063
00:59:09.119 --> 00:59:11.480
<v Speaker 1>state and triggering your intuition is what's going to give

1064
00:59:11.480 --> 00:59:11.960
<v Speaker 1>you the clarity.

1065
00:59:12.360 --> 00:59:13.440
<v Speaker 3>I like that, Thank you.

1066
00:59:13.519 --> 00:59:18.599
<v Speaker 2>I wrote it all that down too. There's a little

1067
00:59:18.960 --> 00:59:25.480
<v Speaker 2>brief coaching session there with free Francesca's coaching. Uh, let's

1068
00:59:25.480 --> 00:59:28.280
<v Speaker 2>go to the last item, which I'm curious about. I

1069
00:59:28.320 --> 00:59:30.320
<v Speaker 2>think it kind of speaks for itself though, which is

1070
00:59:30.480 --> 00:59:35.000
<v Speaker 2>decision making. Those are that's the last area that you

1071
00:59:36.400 --> 00:59:40.480
<v Speaker 2>discussed as a benefit you talk about that is it

1072
00:59:40.800 --> 00:59:41.719
<v Speaker 2>enhanced in some way?

1073
00:59:43.719 --> 00:59:46.400
<v Speaker 1>It's clear because it's intuitive. So what I mean by

1074
00:59:46.440 --> 00:59:50.360
<v Speaker 1>that is, you know, people waste so much time and indecision.

1075
00:59:51.039 --> 00:59:54.400
<v Speaker 1>They have a problem, or they have the next step,

1076
00:59:54.960 --> 00:59:57.880
<v Speaker 1>and they have a feeling of the direction they want

1077
00:59:57.880 --> 00:59:59.400
<v Speaker 1>to go or what they want to do, but their

1078
00:59:59.480 --> 01:00:03.719
<v Speaker 1>logical will tell them all the ways will it'll negate

1079
01:00:04.159 --> 01:00:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and it'll impose fear and threat into the thing that

1080
01:00:07.079 --> 01:00:10.599
<v Speaker 1>they do, they'll get FOMO. So they oftentimes procrastinate and

1081
01:00:10.719 --> 01:00:14.320
<v Speaker 1>they waste time in this over analysis and this overthinking.

1082
01:00:14.800 --> 01:00:18.079
<v Speaker 1>But what breathwork does is it gives you that clear channel,

1083
01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:21.239
<v Speaker 1>that bridge right into your intuition. So you might say,

1084
01:00:21.679 --> 01:00:24.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, your decision coming up is do I hire

1085
01:00:24.159 --> 01:00:27.400
<v Speaker 1>this person or do I move to this platform? And

1086
01:00:27.599 --> 01:00:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll cue it in a breathwork session towards the end

1087
01:00:30.119 --> 01:00:32.599
<v Speaker 1>when all the emotions kind of cleared, and you'll just

1088
01:00:32.719 --> 01:00:35.840
<v Speaker 1>either get a picture, an answer, a word, something in

1089
01:00:35.920 --> 01:00:39.079
<v Speaker 1>your intuition. Something will just flash and that's how that

1090
01:00:39.159 --> 01:00:43.400
<v Speaker 1>you make the decisions moving forward. I'm the craziest. I

1091
01:00:43.519 --> 01:00:46.360
<v Speaker 1>make crazy decisions to the outside world, but they are

1092
01:00:46.559 --> 01:00:48.800
<v Speaker 1>all things that have come through in my breathwork, and

1093
01:00:48.840 --> 01:00:50.719
<v Speaker 1>I just believe them. I act on them and it's

1094
01:00:50.719 --> 01:00:51.079
<v Speaker 1>worked out.

1095
01:00:51.559 --> 01:00:53.559
<v Speaker 2>What do you call them crazy? Because there's something that

1096
01:00:54.000 --> 01:00:56.719
<v Speaker 2>in your daily life you would not initiate.

1097
01:00:57.639 --> 01:00:58.599
<v Speaker 1>They're unconventional.

1098
01:00:59.000 --> 01:01:02.079
<v Speaker 2>Oh, we'll define that, okay.

1099
01:01:03.079 --> 01:01:06.119
<v Speaker 1>So when I started Mastery, we were we were going

1100
01:01:06.159 --> 01:01:08.679
<v Speaker 1>to fundraise a million dollars to start this company and

1101
01:01:08.760 --> 01:01:12.199
<v Speaker 1>to create the app and the platform. So in a

1102
01:01:12.280 --> 01:01:16.000
<v Speaker 1>typical fundraising process. And I did masterminds on fundraising and

1103
01:01:16.079 --> 01:01:18.039
<v Speaker 1>went to these founder schools and did all these things

1104
01:01:18.119 --> 01:01:20.800
<v Speaker 1>because that's the process that my linear mind told me

1105
01:01:20.880 --> 01:01:23.880
<v Speaker 1>to do. In rough work, it was like post a

1106
01:01:23.960 --> 01:01:28.039
<v Speaker 1>headshot on Instagram. Post your headshot on Instagram with a

1107
01:01:28.119 --> 01:01:30.760
<v Speaker 1>caption that says, in twenty twenty eight two, I'm coming

1108
01:01:30.760 --> 01:01:33.199
<v Speaker 1>out as a female founder of a new wellness company

1109
01:01:33.639 --> 01:01:35.599
<v Speaker 1>to raise the collective consciousness. If you want to get

1110
01:01:35.599 --> 01:01:38.599
<v Speaker 1>involved DM me. And my ego was like, whoa, I'm

1111
01:01:38.639 --> 01:01:41.679
<v Speaker 1>not putting that on Instagram. That's so what if it

1112
01:01:41.760 --> 01:01:43.719
<v Speaker 1>doesn't work out, Like, I don't want to put myself

1113
01:01:43.719 --> 01:01:47.639
<v Speaker 1>out there like that. My intuition, my decision, in my

1114
01:01:47.760 --> 01:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>intuition was post it. I posted it around forty eight

1115
01:01:51.440 --> 01:01:53.800
<v Speaker 1>hours later I had the call, and I think forty

1116
01:01:53.800 --> 01:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>eight hours after that, the first one hundred K was

1117
01:01:55.800 --> 01:01:57.320
<v Speaker 1>wired into Mastery's bank account.

1118
01:01:57.639 --> 01:01:58.679
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god.

1119
01:01:59.519 --> 01:02:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so you really tapped in, you know. That's so funny.

1120
01:02:03.000 --> 01:02:06.639
<v Speaker 2>It's like everything happens for a reason. It's like all

1121
01:02:06.719 --> 01:02:11.719
<v Speaker 2>the energetics are lined up, and when you sent that

1122
01:02:11.840 --> 01:02:19.840
<v Speaker 2>into the atmosphere or the the whatever reality it manifested.

1123
01:02:21.519 --> 01:02:28.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's totally cool. Yeah, the books called Unlock Your Purpose.

1124
01:02:28.719 --> 01:02:32.920
<v Speaker 2>My guest today is Francesca Sima. I want to get

1125
01:02:33.000 --> 01:02:36.440
<v Speaker 2>into some case studies now at the at the end

1126
01:02:36.480 --> 01:02:42.119
<v Speaker 2>of this interview, and if you could give us obviously

1127
01:02:42.159 --> 01:02:44.039
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to name names, but if you could

1128
01:02:44.039 --> 01:02:47.079
<v Speaker 2>give us a couple of people who have perhaps we're

1129
01:02:47.960 --> 01:02:51.360
<v Speaker 2>in a certain situation and then use the breath work

1130
01:02:51.880 --> 01:02:54.719
<v Speaker 2>and now you're happy to report this or that. And

1131
01:02:55.039 --> 01:03:00.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean they all can't be Roses and spark. There

1132
01:03:00.519 --> 01:03:02.440
<v Speaker 2>could be some that are working their way up from

1133
01:03:02.480 --> 01:03:07.039
<v Speaker 2>a certain situation. But whatever you could provide to be great. Yeah.

1134
01:03:07.039 --> 01:03:09.440
<v Speaker 1>I think the first story that comes to mind it

1135
01:03:09.480 --> 01:03:11.960
<v Speaker 1>was actually my very first Unblock your Purpose course, and

1136
01:03:12.039 --> 01:03:14.159
<v Speaker 1>I had a gentleman in there. He was about fifty

1137
01:03:14.159 --> 01:03:17.320
<v Speaker 1>six years old. He had started his own company before

1138
01:03:17.559 --> 01:03:20.480
<v Speaker 1>and actually went bankrupt, so we had a fear of

1139
01:03:20.679 --> 01:03:23.679
<v Speaker 1>entrepreneurship now from that experience, but he deeply wanted to

1140
01:03:23.719 --> 01:03:26.039
<v Speaker 1>create a legacy for his kids. So we came in

1141
01:03:26.199 --> 01:03:29.880
<v Speaker 1>thinking that we were going to heal the financial situation

1142
01:03:30.119 --> 01:03:34.800
<v Speaker 1>from his last experience and first breathwork session. Ever, he

1143
01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:39.039
<v Speaker 1>came out hysterical, shocked, you know, was crying and I said,

1144
01:03:39.039 --> 01:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>you know what came up for you? And he said,

1145
01:03:41.440 --> 01:03:43.480
<v Speaker 1>sexual trauma from when I was five years old that

1146
01:03:43.599 --> 01:03:46.440
<v Speaker 1>I haven't thought about in five decades. Wow. And that

1147
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:50.719
<v Speaker 1>was the block. And once that was released, and once

1148
01:03:50.800 --> 01:03:53.599
<v Speaker 1>that was healed, he got the idea for the platform

1149
01:03:53.880 --> 01:03:56.320
<v Speaker 1>that he wanted to build that was much more in

1150
01:03:56.320 --> 01:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>alignment for him. So that was a huge one.

1151
01:04:00.159 --> 01:04:01.760
<v Speaker 3>I also stop you real quickly.

1152
01:04:02.239 --> 01:04:07.360
<v Speaker 2>We don't recognize physical abuse. It can be emotional abuse

1153
01:04:07.480 --> 01:04:10.519
<v Speaker 2>as a form of a block. And that's a classic

1154
01:04:10.679 --> 01:04:14.840
<v Speaker 2>example of someone who was physically abused and holding on

1155
01:04:15.000 --> 01:04:18.800
<v Speaker 2>to that trauma. And what you're saying is that the

1156
01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:23.159
<v Speaker 2>release came when he was doing his breath work and

1157
01:04:23.360 --> 01:04:28.079
<v Speaker 2>now he's more fully available.

1158
01:04:27.519 --> 01:04:28.079
<v Speaker 3>For the work.

1159
01:04:29.480 --> 01:04:32.840
<v Speaker 1>That is a memory that he completely blocked out and

1160
01:04:32.960 --> 01:04:38.320
<v Speaker 1>hadn't talked about, shared thought about in almost fifty years.

1161
01:04:39.119 --> 01:04:39.360
<v Speaker 3>Wow.

1162
01:04:40.199 --> 01:04:40.960
<v Speaker 1>And it was the first thing.

1163
01:04:42.199 --> 01:04:44.960
<v Speaker 2>I think your next book, Francesca is my clients in

1164
01:04:45.039 --> 01:04:46.920
<v Speaker 2>their road to success.

1165
01:04:49.199 --> 01:04:54.559
<v Speaker 1>I have hundreds of stories I could share, definitely. Another

1166
01:04:54.599 --> 01:04:56.119
<v Speaker 1>one that I thought was really cool was I was

1167
01:04:56.159 --> 01:05:01.679
<v Speaker 1>working with the renowned producer for Justin Timberlake actually, and

1168
01:05:02.039 --> 01:05:05.239
<v Speaker 1>he thought that his purpose was to create music that

1169
01:05:05.320 --> 01:05:07.480
<v Speaker 1>affected culture, and he's like, yeah, I think this is

1170
01:05:07.519 --> 01:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>you know what I was supposed to do, and dada da.

1171
01:05:09.360 --> 01:05:11.480
<v Speaker 1>We went into three breathwork sessions and he saw, no,

1172
01:05:11.639 --> 01:05:13.880
<v Speaker 1>my purpose is actually to show minority boys that they

1173
01:05:13.880 --> 01:05:14.679
<v Speaker 1>can live their dreams.

1174
01:05:15.360 --> 01:05:15.599
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

1175
01:05:16.400 --> 01:05:19.360
<v Speaker 1>So that was like a really cool shift. And then

1176
01:05:19.360 --> 01:05:21.039
<v Speaker 1>I shared this with you earlier. But I think like

1177
01:05:21.159 --> 01:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>eighty percent of people end up putting their corporate jobs

1178
01:05:24.039 --> 01:05:27.360
<v Speaker 1>once they do my actual course. So I've had now

1179
01:05:27.920 --> 01:05:31.440
<v Speaker 1>I've certified one hundred and twenty Hypno breathwork coaches in

1180
01:05:31.599 --> 01:05:36.280
<v Speaker 1>my modality, and I get photos and videos and tags

1181
01:05:36.360 --> 01:05:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and emails from them all the time. I mean they

1182
01:05:38.400 --> 01:05:41.679
<v Speaker 1>are in they're doing retreats in Costa Rica and in Greece.

1183
01:05:41.719 --> 01:05:44.480
<v Speaker 1>They're on stages, they're doing sessions for football players. You know,

1184
01:05:44.880 --> 01:05:48.079
<v Speaker 1>they're writing books. They're I mean, they're out there living

1185
01:05:48.119 --> 01:05:51.519
<v Speaker 1>their life because they're tapping into this practice every single day.

1186
01:05:51.599 --> 01:05:54.440
<v Speaker 1>But they are having the courage to do the deep work,

1187
01:05:54.480 --> 01:05:57.960
<v Speaker 1>to be consistent, to take the action. So the life

1188
01:05:58.000 --> 01:05:59.639
<v Speaker 1>of your dream is as possible, but you got to

1189
01:05:59.639 --> 01:06:01.000
<v Speaker 1>do a little deep work. You got to heal, and

1190
01:06:01.000 --> 01:06:02.400

1197
01:06:18.000 --> 01:06:20.599
<v Speaker 2>book just came out. Hey, did you do an audible

1198
01:06:20.719 --> 01:06:21.239
<v Speaker 2>version of it?

1199
01:06:21.920 --> 01:06:26.679
<v Speaker 1>I did, and fantastic and I recorded all very specific

1200
01:06:26.760 --> 01:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>hypno breathwork sessions that are complimentary with the book for this.

1201
01:06:29.519 --> 01:06:30.119
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god.

1202
01:06:30.199 --> 01:06:33.440
<v Speaker 2>So you can actually follow along and do do you

1203
01:06:33.519 --> 01:06:37.599
<v Speaker 2>do like a beginning breath work session with Oh wow, wow?

1204
01:06:37.719 --> 01:06:40.119
<v Speaker 2>That's that's really worth the price of.

1205
01:06:40.159 --> 01:06:40.800
<v Speaker 3>The book.

1206
01:06:42.199 --> 01:06:42.840
<v Speaker 1>You're telling me.

1207
01:06:44.400 --> 01:06:46.159
<v Speaker 2>You're probably thinking, why did they do that?

1208
01:06:48.559 --> 01:06:50.519
<v Speaker 1>No, My mission is to help people get into align

1209
01:06:50.760 --> 01:06:53.159
<v Speaker 1>with their purpose, and I'm more than happy to provide

1210
01:06:53.199 --> 01:06:54.920
<v Speaker 1>that resource. I hope that everyone tries it.

1211
01:06:55.320 --> 01:07:00.559
<v Speaker 2>That is very generous, Francesca, very generous. Okay, So that's

1212
01:07:00.639 --> 01:07:04.360
<v Speaker 2>your the book. How where else can people find you?

1223
01:07:32.039 --> 01:07:36.679
<v Speaker 2>Fantastic And just for you, what do you see yourself

1224
01:07:36.760 --> 01:07:40.480
<v Speaker 2>doing in the next five years, I'm going to build

1225
01:07:40.480 --> 01:07:45.599
<v Speaker 2>a dome. A dome you mean a pyramid, yes.

1226
01:07:45.559 --> 01:07:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Center for subconscious reprogramming where we hook in our brain waves.

1227
01:07:48.960 --> 01:07:52.119
<v Speaker 1>We see when the rewiring is happening, we get those

1228
01:07:52.159 --> 01:07:54.639
<v Speaker 1>expansive visions. We can measure it, we can calculate it,

1229
01:07:54.719 --> 01:07:58.719
<v Speaker 1>we can have the research and the data to support it. Yeah,

1230
01:07:58.760 --> 01:08:01.159
<v Speaker 1>we can bring an artist and thought leaders and turned

1231
01:08:01.199 --> 01:08:03.719
<v Speaker 1>their concepts into hypno breathwork sessions so that people actually

1232
01:08:03.760 --> 01:08:06.599
<v Speaker 1>retain their lessons and their learnings. Yeah, I want to

1233
01:08:06.639 --> 01:08:07.039
<v Speaker 1>blow it up.

1234
01:08:08.239 --> 01:08:12.920
<v Speaker 2>That's very very old world. That's the previous civilization creating

1235
01:08:13.079 --> 01:08:16.680
<v Speaker 2>domes for meditative processing. That's you must have been tapping

1236
01:08:16.720 --> 01:08:18.960
<v Speaker 2>into a couple of different lifetimes when that came up.

1237
01:08:19.680 --> 01:08:22.199
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's actually like a black mirrored glass dome. So

1238
01:08:22.239 --> 01:08:25.279
<v Speaker 1>it's very futuristic looking and very modern, but it definitely

1239
01:08:25.319 --> 01:08:27.159
<v Speaker 1>came through in a couple of breathwork sessions.

1240
01:08:29.359 --> 01:08:33.640
<v Speaker 2>Brat Cska Simba, thank you for joining me and much

1241
01:08:33.800 --> 01:08:34.520
<v Speaker 2>much success.

1242
01:08:35.359 --> 01:08:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much thanks for having me.

1243
01:08:38.359 --> 01:08:39.479
<v Speaker 3>I wasn't sure.

1244
01:08:39.319 --> 01:08:43.439
<v Speaker 2>About that interview, but I really enjoyed Francesca's work and

1245
01:08:43.560 --> 01:08:47.720
<v Speaker 2>her take on the breathwork app that.

1246
01:08:47.800 --> 01:08:49.920
<v Speaker 3>She has created. And she's really put a lot of

1247
01:08:50.000 --> 01:08:53.479
<v Speaker 3>thought into the program, which I think is very important.

1248
01:08:53.840 --> 01:08:56.680
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you something else that we spoke about.

1249
01:08:57.039 --> 01:08:59.439
<v Speaker 3>At the end. We didn't include it in the recording.

1250
01:08:59.840 --> 01:09:05.119
<v Speaker 2>She has created an audible she narrates the book, but

1251
01:09:05.279 --> 01:09:09.079
<v Speaker 2>she told me that she also has guided meditations to

1252
01:09:09.199 --> 01:09:11.840
<v Speaker 2>take you through the various levels of the breath work.

1253
01:09:11.960 --> 01:09:16.359
<v Speaker 2>That is huge and I found it not only a

1254
01:09:16.560 --> 01:09:20.720
<v Speaker 2>huge benefit an important part of the book, but this

1255
01:09:20.880 --> 01:09:22.960
<v Speaker 2>is a way for those of you who are unfamiliar

1256
01:09:23.039 --> 01:09:26.439
<v Speaker 2>with breath work to have her working and guiding you

1257
01:09:26.640 --> 01:09:31.520
<v Speaker 2>through these important steps. This is huge. I was like, really,

1258
01:09:32.279 --> 01:09:36.960
<v Speaker 2>that's I mean, you're giving away your coaching. No she's not,

1259
01:09:37.159 --> 01:09:42.760
<v Speaker 2>but it's helping you and introducing you to this fabulous technique.

1260
01:09:43.000 --> 01:09:45.000
<v Speaker 2>And I got to tell you, when you begin to

1261
01:09:45.079 --> 01:09:48.319
<v Speaker 2>do breath work, it can really clear a lot of

1262
01:09:48.600 --> 01:09:51.920
<v Speaker 2>problems up. You can be faced with trauma, stuff will

1263
01:09:51.960 --> 01:09:54.680
<v Speaker 2>come up. You'll have a memory, you'll have a flash

1264
01:09:54.800 --> 01:09:58.600
<v Speaker 2>of a traumatic event or an event that upset you,

1265
01:09:58.800 --> 01:10:02.439
<v Speaker 2>and you can clear it right there. You know you can,

1266
01:10:02.760 --> 01:10:07.039
<v Speaker 2>you can accept it. I felt it, I remember it,

1267
01:10:07.760 --> 01:10:10.399
<v Speaker 2>I release it for its highest good. I don't know

1268
01:10:10.479 --> 01:10:12.319
<v Speaker 2>what techniques she uses. Those are some of the old

1269
01:10:12.359 --> 01:10:14.920
<v Speaker 2>techniques that I use. But when you start doing that,

1270
01:10:15.119 --> 01:10:20.279
<v Speaker 2>you're freeing up little pockets of pain and trauma and

1271
01:10:20.399 --> 01:10:24.800
<v Speaker 2>tuxins toxicity. You get rid of your toxicity. So check

1272
01:10:24.840 --> 01:10:29.439
<v Speaker 2>out that book, Unlock your Purpose on Amazon and download

1273
01:10:29.600 --> 01:10:32.680
<v Speaker 2>the audible version, because she takes you right through it.

1274
01:10:33.000 --> 01:10:38.079
<v Speaker 3>What a great gift. Talk about a Christmas gift. Thank you, Francesca.
