Mirrors are going to pop up in

0:02

our daily life, and they are our

0:04

invitations to our expansion. Get

0:07

those ones exposed and heal and have

0:09

corrective experiences. Mirrors

0:13

equal the exact thing you need served

0:15

in front of you right now to

0:17

get closer to that manifestation you're calling

0:19

in. From

0:22

To Be Magnetic, this is The

0:24

Expanded Podcast with your host, Lacey

0:26

Phillips. And

0:29

your host, Jessica Gill. As

0:37

the leading destination for neural manifestation,

0:39

we dispelled the woo-woo

0:41

in order to help

0:43

you create real, tangible

0:45

results based on neuroplasticity,

0:47

psychology, epigenetics, and energetics.

0:51

Our goal is to normalize the

0:53

practice of manifestation and empower you

0:55

to get into the driver's seat

0:57

of your life in order to

0:59

manifest the experiences, relationships, and things

1:01

that most align with your authenticity.

1:04

And by pressing play, the

1:06

process begins. Welcome

1:14

back everyone to another episode of

1:16

Expanded. Jessica here. We

1:18

are diving into a topic you have

1:20

likely heard about before if you've been

1:22

in the TBM universe for a while,

1:25

mirrors. Now what are

1:27

mirrors? How do they impact our manifestations?

1:29

How do they help our manifestations? How

1:31

can we use them to our advantage?

1:34

And the best way I sort

1:36

of learned to interpret mirrors is

1:39

mirrors are more of a philosophical

1:41

idea of how you can

1:43

begin to look at the world

1:45

around you and use it to

1:47

your advantage to empower yourself. So

1:50

if we think about this concept of

1:52

mirrors, we can see our different life

1:54

experiences being mirrors to things in our

1:56

life where we need to heal and

1:59

grow. Mirrored in which we

2:01

can step into our true. Authentic self

2:03

and nature sometimes mirrored com in

2:05

the form of tests and triggers

2:07

other people this hideous, that sensitive

2:10

thought that wound d and that

2:12

we haven't quite healed or a

2:14

book that yes and mirror can

2:16

also come in the form of

2:18

vision holders for other people that

2:20

can see or potential that are

2:22

encouraging us on better highlighting the

2:25

way our expanders of what's possible

2:27

for us in the future. What's

2:29

possible for us to continue to

2:31

grow and evolve. And. Food

2:34

today we have. I'm leafy

2:36

him the seen with and

2:39

spirit Philly therapists Mgr therapists

2:41

really breaking this concept. Doom.

2:43

And one other know I want

2:46

to make about mirrors is one

2:48

of the biggest places so we

2:50

can start to see our mirrors

2:52

are reflection of our inner self

2:55

is in relationships know of course

2:57

working relationships or friend said family

2:59

relationships but even the relation of

3:02

the have with our pets. And.

3:04

Their relationships we have with a romantic partner

3:06

is. The. Romantic partners are often

3:08

the most triggering because it is

3:11

the closest to that safety and

3:13

security. And in that container, Safety

3:15

and security, it's the opportunity to

3:17

evolve and grow even deeper. I'm

3:20

so excited for us to die

3:22

then curious to see what mirrors

3:24

had then presenting and what lessons

3:26

it's asking, inviting you to look

3:28

at, integrate to heal deeper because

3:30

when we do we have the

3:32

exact road now that is helping

3:34

connect us with what we're design

3:36

at this moment in time. if

3:38

you guys haven't heard yet we are

3:40

he been are manifest season challenge open

3:42

until the end of march so many

3:44

to work has said that they want

3:46

utilize the tools and to see some

3:48

final finishing touches in there before it

3:51

closes out don't worry all that is

3:53

imagine easily as into our daily practice

3:55

library and if you completed the challenge

3:57

you are survey let us know what

3:59

you loved what you manifested, help expand

4:01

others, and let us know what you are

4:03

hoping to get out of our summer challenge

4:05

because we are developing that right now. And

4:09

I hope you guys enjoy the episode. And

4:16

now a word from our partners. Did

4:22

you know that the type of water

4:24

that you have in your area, whether

4:26

it's hard or soft, can be impacting

4:28

your hair and skin? I've had the

4:30

ping for quite some time that we

4:32

have really hard water in Los Angeles,

4:34

and every single time I shower here

4:36

versus other locations like when I'm traveling,

4:39

I'll notice my hair is much more

4:41

difficult to brush, it's a little bit

4:43

rougher, it's not as supple, where

4:45

other locations it seems to be a

4:47

lot softer and smoother. So I

4:49

had this ping to get a water filter. But

4:52

there's a lot of different water filters for your shower

4:54

head out on the market, and they can be a

4:56

little bit pricey, so I didn't want to invest in

4:58

one without really knowing if it was effective or if

5:00

the quality made a big difference. And

5:03

then I manifested the Acton

5:05

Acre shower head filter. So

5:08

they have been developing this product for quite some

5:10

time. If you haven't heard of Acton Acre, they're

5:12

an incredible hair and scalp care company that

5:15

was founded by Helen Brieve, who is

5:17

a board certified tricologist. She really understands

5:19

the implications of your scalp health and

5:22

how that impacts the rest of your

5:24

head. She really understands the

5:26

microbiome of the scalp and is the

5:28

world's first cold processed hair wellness brand

5:30

that really makes an emphasis on the

5:33

scalp. They're so science backed and

5:35

they really care and put in tension behind every

5:37

single thing that they're doing to have the best

5:39

microbiome for your head and scalp, which thus results

5:41

in the best hair possible. So

5:43

when I heard that they were developing this shower

5:45

head, I was like, sign me up, I need

5:47

to test this out, this is incredible. So I

5:50

got it two or three months back. It was

5:52

so easy to install. You just put it right

5:54

where your old shower head is. They have a

5:56

little flow restrictor depending upon what state you're in

5:58

to make sure you're using an ideal

6:00

amount of water coming through and and

6:06

for my hair. My body and face feels

6:08

less dry and scaly after I pop out

6:11

of the shower. My hair is so soft

6:13

and supple. I mean I can brush it

6:15

wet which if you know my hair I

6:18

could almost never brush it wet without putting

6:20

some sort of detangler in it because it

6:22

would get crazy knots and I can brush

6:24

it immediately after coming out of the shower.

6:27

And I seem to be losing less hair

6:29

in the shower. Whenever I pull comes to

6:31

my hair during the shower there's only a

6:34

couple strands that come out where before there

6:36

used to be at least a mini little

6:38

handful. I'm obsessed I call it taking my

6:40

beauty shower because it is helping my skin

6:42

and face and body and hair all at

6:44

the same time and it filters out all

6:46

of those things that we do not want

6:48

to be washing our body and hair with.

6:51

It has three different filters on it that

6:53

filter out chlorine, bacteria, algae that can cause

6:55

scalp irritation, chloramines that can cause dryness and

6:57

inflammation and any chemicals or unwanted

6:59

odor that might be in the water.

7:02

So you are getting the cleanest water

7:04

in your shower. So if you want

7:06

to test out the shower head filter

7:09

that really really works I highly recommend

7:11

the Acton Acre one and you can

7:13

get a discount on your shower

7:15

head with the code TBM20 for 20% off. Again that

7:20

code is TBM20 for 20% off.

7:23

You can check our link in our show

7:25

notes or go to actonecure.com and

7:28

put in the code TBM20. Let me know

7:30

what you guys think. I'm obsessed with this

7:32

one. It is a true manifestation come through

7:35

because I really did want a filtered shower

7:37

head but I wanted to trust the brand

7:39

and believe in all the science that was

7:41

backing it and Actonecure was

7:43

it. Enjoy. All

7:50

right. I'm off to the episode. It's

7:56

so nice to be recording with both of you. I feel

7:58

like it's been a minute. How are you doing?

8:01

I know. Wonderful over here. Just

8:03

so pregnant. Janelle,

8:08

you're in love. Yes, still.

8:10

So in love. Yes, still in love. I'm

8:13

like in a total domestic era,

8:15

cooking, attend, walking. Such a

8:18

sweet, sweet time. Jessica,

8:20

you working your ass off. Working my

8:22

guns off. Honestly, getting

8:25

in so much more balanced, like yesterday was

8:27

the first day that I've been trying to

8:29

do these time blocks every two hours, take

8:31

a break. And like a real break, like

8:33

put everything down, don't catch up on Slack,

8:35

just keep that pacing. And I

8:37

was like, wow, that felt like such

8:39

a free day. Like that was amazing.

8:41

So now I'm like actually starting to

8:43

like implement all of my little

8:46

grounding techniques throughout the day. So it's going well.

8:49

I've been meaning to ask too, I know

8:51

this is a shorter episode, but what's the

8:53

update on wedding venues? Oh, wedding

8:56

venues, I have just put to the

8:58

side because we're really excited about manifesting

9:00

the next home. We're just like

9:02

so jazz about it and the places coming

9:04

through are like so close. But at the

9:07

same time, it's funny, we're like finding new

9:09

ways to like to judge up our current

9:11

space. And we're like, well, the place

9:13

isn't so bad. Like this is kind of

9:15

great. You know, so it's this nice little

9:17

cocoon phase before getting to the next

9:19

one. And then I guess we'll start looking

9:22

at the venues again. Yeah, I

9:24

know. And you're just going to know when you

9:26

find that, you're just going to know. It's going

9:28

to be so obvious, I feel. Yeah. All

9:31

right, let's get in. Okay, what is

9:33

a mirror? So this has been a

9:35

massive teaching and sort of philosophy with

9:37

the TBM work is seeing life as

9:39

mirrors, seeing opportunities and people around you

9:41

as mirrors reflecting back your self-worth to

9:43

understand where your blocks are, where your

9:45

expansion is. It's also a place that

9:47

people have a lot of questions. How

9:49

do we use mirror? How do I

9:51

know it's a mirror versus a test

9:54

versus a trigger? Is this a mirror

9:56

I should pay attention to? You know,

9:58

how do I work with it? with

10:00

them with the manifestation work. So

10:02

Lacey, I wanna kind of point to you, how

10:05

did you first discover this process of mirrors and

10:08

using this to help supersede

10:10

and work with people's manifestation

10:12

process? Yeah, so

10:15

in a lot of the kind of new

10:17

age manifestation rhetoric, people

10:19

are always talking about like the law

10:21

of attraction, the vortex, the things you

10:24

attract to you. And though that's obviously

10:26

happening, it didn't feel rooted or grounded

10:28

in something that I could really digest.

10:30

You know, it felt so lofty, so

10:33

spiritual, so abstract. And then

10:35

the more that I started to watch patterning

10:37

and manifestation, I was like, oh,

10:39

all that's happening is every single

10:42

thing that's in your life surrounding

10:44

you, showing up to you, coming

10:46

to you, happening to you is a mirror.

10:48

We talk about this in psychology, you know,

10:51

which I'm gonna let you break down in

10:53

a minute, Janelle, so people just get it.

10:55

And I think the best takeaway people can

10:57

understand with a mirror is literally

10:59

anything within your reality is the universe

11:02

mirroring it to you in an effort

11:04

to bring you back to your whole

11:06

worthy authentic self. It's actually working for

11:09

you, even if there are things that

11:11

are happening in your life that feel

11:13

overwhelming or hard or sad or

11:16

you're in grief or fearful, it's all

11:18

in an effort for you. It's

11:20

actually out of goodness to push

11:22

you to peel the onion layers back,

11:24

of which that's not yours. You know,

11:27

that's not your authentic self, it's that

11:29

pain, shame and programming we've been picking

11:31

up since birth. So that

11:33

means every person in your life,

11:35

every situation in your life, your

11:37

home, your animal, everything is a

11:39

mirror. So before we go on,

11:41

let's have Janelle define in psychology,

11:43

what is a mirror? The

11:46

best way to think about it

11:48

is that

11:51

when we get triggered, it's

11:53

pointing to our unfinished

11:56

business. We've talked about

11:58

this saying before, I think many times. on the

12:00

podcast, but if it's hysterical, it's historical.

12:03

But it doesn't even have to

12:05

be like hysterical. It can be

12:07

where there's just some kind of rub that

12:12

keeps happening or some sort of

12:14

even low grade where, for example, if

12:16

we use the words always or never

12:18

with our partner, like that can

12:20

be indicators where it's pointing to

12:22

our unfinished business. And

12:25

some mirrors can be positive, right?

12:27

And then some mirrors are negative, but

12:29

a lot of times, and

12:31

especially in partnership dynamics, what's

12:34

happening is we mirror each other

12:38

and typically we

12:40

partner up with the

12:42

same level of unfinished

12:44

business together. Typically it's

12:46

like a same core wound, but

12:49

it's just expressed in different

12:52

ways. Which is a

12:54

trauma bond. Yeah, yeah. Yes,

12:56

yes and no. Trauma bonds can

12:58

be more of like when

13:00

there's a pattern of abuse and we're

13:03

truly bonded to somebody in a really

13:05

traumatic way, where in

13:07

like healthier partnerships, it can be

13:09

more of there's like an attachment

13:11

wound and one partner expresses it

13:13

in a anxious way and the

13:15

other person expresses it in an

13:17

avoidant way, but there's a core

13:19

intimacy wound there. Or maybe there's

13:22

in a partnership, there's like money keeps

13:24

coming up as a topic, right? And

13:26

one person is a major

13:29

saver and the other one's a big spender to

13:31

a point where it's problematic. There might be a,

13:34

again, like a core wound there,

13:36

maybe around finances, but again, it's

13:38

expressed in different ways. Or

13:40

maybe there's a dynamic where some

13:42

partner is over-functioning and the other

13:44

partner is under-functioning. So there's a

13:46

similar, there's a wound there, but

13:49

expressed in opposites. And

13:51

how would you, Jessica, like knowing the work

13:53

so well, like the back of your hand,

13:56

how would you define them

13:58

in layman's terms? What do they mean

14:00

to you? So we have,

14:02

I'll read what we have in the

14:04

workshop too, but you know, like you

14:07

were saying, Lacey, the university only intention

14:09

is reconnect with our inherent worthiness. So

14:11

it's sending you these mirrors and jobs,

14:13

friends, situations, challenges to reflect back

14:15

to you where you need that healing

14:18

or to reflect to you your expansion.

14:20

And the way that I kind of see mirrors is when

14:23

you have an opportunity in front

14:25

of you that is reflecting something back to you,

14:28

whether it's something that's triggering you or whether it's

14:30

something that's expanding you. Like I think of a

14:32

positive mirror would be a vision

14:34

holder, someone that sees your potential.

14:37

Either way, it's an invitation to

14:39

then say like, okay, what

14:42

is this highlighting to me that I need to

14:44

bring out more of myself in the case of

14:46

a vision holder? Or what do

14:48

I need to maybe have some healing

14:50

around in the case of a big

14:52

trigger? And the one no and

14:54

sort of disclaimer I want to make around

14:56

this too is I could see someone

14:59

who has a lot of self blame and

15:01

shame and being like, Oh my God, you

15:03

know, all these terrible things are happening in

15:05

my life. It's me, I'm the problem, blah,

15:08

blah, blah. And I just

15:10

want to note that there are things that

15:12

happen that are outside of our control, like

15:15

abuse. This is not a blame or

15:17

shame game to say like, Oh my

15:19

gosh, you attracted abuse or you attracted

15:22

neglect or some of the horrific things

15:24

that happen in the world, like oppression,

15:26

injustice, marginalization, any of

15:28

that, I would say mirrors

15:30

are an invitation for those

15:32

every day moment to

15:35

moment basis in the people around you

15:37

in your closer circle. I

15:39

would also add to anyone who's experienced

15:41

everything you just listed off, I

15:44

energetically see mirrors. I

15:47

see those experiences developing

15:50

us into the type of human

15:52

that we're supposed to be to

15:54

have purpose on earth. You know,

15:56

that's how we experience such a

15:58

spectrum of experiences. mirrors

16:00

to me are an invitation to take

16:02

your power back, to really get into

16:05

your whole authentic worthiness. And I think

16:07

it was such a good disclaimer that

16:09

we didn't attract that experience. But I

16:11

do, when I think of mirrors pertaining

16:13

to this work, when one's been through any of

16:16

the things listed, it is that that

16:18

invitation to be like, you know what,

16:20

that's not going to define me anymore.

16:22

I'm going to take my power back in and get

16:25

back into my authentic essence. I

16:28

love the way you said that too,

16:30

because even in this moment, I'm having

16:32

like a new revelation with mirrors that

16:35

they're not something that you have to almost look

16:37

back and be like, why is this here and

16:39

be upset that it's there? It's like, okay, if

16:42

this is the thing that's presenting in front of me,

16:44

how can I use it to my advantage? How can

16:46

I use it to, like you said, take my power

16:48

back? How can I use it to use this

16:51

person's vision for me that feels really

16:53

extensive, but scary, step into that more

16:55

and know that I'm worth going after

16:57

that? That's kind of how you can

16:59

use mirrors. Don't use mirrors against yourself,

17:02

use them for yourself. 100%.

17:05

Yes. And that's how we can

17:07

talk about it, propelling into action for manifestation.

17:10

Yes. Okay, so talking

17:13

about the ones that the test and

17:15

the trigger ones, Janelle, you've talked a

17:17

lot about the opportunity for a corrective

17:19

experience. Why do we flock to

17:22

that person

17:24

that is going to have that

17:26

similar core wound, but opposite? Because

17:30

the universe is interested in

17:33

our growth more than our happiness. That's

17:35

a quote from Harville Hendrix. So Harville

17:37

Hendrix is the, you know, if you're

17:39

familiar with Getting to Love You One, a

17:41

model therapy, he's the founder of that.

17:44

And his whole work is based

17:46

off of mirrors in the

17:48

field of partnership. But yeah, that's his

17:50

theory, is that the universe is interested

17:52

in our growth more than our happiness.

17:54

And I hated this when I heard

17:56

it, but it was like, we're going

17:59

to pick people. The all That

18:01

literally cannot meet our needs. Why

18:03

on earth you know and in

18:06

that process that the dance a

18:08

partnership it's meant to be com

18:10

said so we don't feel like

18:13

so discouraged by it. it's that

18:15

we heal and relationship so he

18:17

find people that literally. Truly.

18:20

Just like trigger our early

18:22

unfinished business. And.

18:24

The work and and partnership is

18:27

to get those ones expose and

18:29

he'll and I've. Corrected.

18:31

Experiences get the healing that we

18:33

need that we didn't get and

18:36

our childhood. And.

18:38

I would even add to that

18:40

from a manifestation energetic point. I

18:42

think that that's also. Typical everything

18:44

you just said. Really

18:47

silly in friendships. Oh

18:49

yeah, families. That

18:52

you know, buses. Like

18:54

I even think of myself, all

18:56

of my closest closest best friends

18:58

on the planet. All of

19:00

them at least had one alcoholic parent. You

19:02

know what I mean. It's a disclaimer for.

19:05

Level. Of relate

19:07

ability but invitation

19:09

to. Grow. I

19:12

have this a same thing with

19:14

female friends were almost every single

19:16

one of them were print I'd

19:18

oh yeah when I deserve and

19:20

he says look always hit outta

19:22

we all have this dynamic. This

19:24

is insane. Yes, Sir

19:27

Syed? not sure anybody listening. It.

19:29

Just it broadens your awareness of the

19:31

as the avenues you could be going

19:34

down with what's mirroring due to be

19:36

working on. All. Sides house

19:38

and family or I like runs our

19:40

toes and ailing so they're stepping right

19:42

and said those. It's the same kind

19:45

of dynamic right of how we take a partner,

19:47

how each to their chosen. Circle of

19:49

of girlfriends and with a trigger an

19:51

ass. Yeah. And

19:53

then giving just like a practical example

19:55

of when you're in the moment and

19:57

you're like okay, this person is my

19:59

me. When you have a

20:01

test or trigger present from your mirror,

20:03

how do you navigate it? How do

20:05

you see it as that? One

20:08

example I can definitely give

20:10

is that one wound, and

20:12

I've definitely talked about this on the

20:14

podcast before, but one wound is that

20:16

my dad was like such a

20:18

workaholic, would come home, be so exhausted, and

20:21

I'd be like, look at me, come on, pay attention

20:23

to dad, and was so sad that he was just

20:25

a tired guy at work. But as a kid, I

20:28

was like, he doesn't listen to me, like, I don't

20:30

understand. Now, flash forward, I

20:32

have a fiancé who is ADHD

20:34

whose literal brain is desired to

20:36

have a very hard time focusing.

20:38

I find it a comical thing

20:40

of the universe to have my

20:42

partner be someone who's like, what?

20:45

I, you know, and he's, bless

20:48

his heart, but like he sometimes

20:50

has had the terrible pattern of being

20:53

able to be like, yup, yup, yup, and

20:55

really seem like he's listening, but he's totally

20:57

in another panic. And I

21:00

can pick up on it, and I'm like, you didn't

21:02

hear what I said? And he goes, yeah,

21:04

and he'll just repeat back the last sentence

21:06

I said, and I'm like, oh, you didn't

21:08

hear it. Jessica,

21:10

this might just be like partners

21:13

in general. Yeah, but it's so

21:15

fascinating to me. And so when

21:17

those triggers come up, to

21:20

me, it's a both-and. It's okay. There

21:23

is a history here that

21:25

makes this so irritating that

21:27

is my job to look at. And I can

21:30

also communicate to my partner, hey, this is

21:32

a sensitivity for me. Let's try

21:34

to work on the listening part. So

21:36

that's kind of how I try to

21:39

work with that mirror coming

21:41

up. Yeah, that's exactly

21:43

it. Coming at it with curiosity,

21:45

compassion. There's such deep, deep mutual

21:48

understanding. You're not just going, okay,

21:50

well, this is what it is.

21:52

You're not self-abandoning yourself, and

21:55

you're also not just staying on your side and

21:57

having no empathy for him. There's this

21:59

beautiful middle ground. ground of like, okay,

22:02

this hits a very deep, painful place

22:04

in me that I

22:06

am going to continue to soothe.

22:08

And it's also deeply healing

22:11

when Danielle does have those moments

22:13

of, I'm so sorry and really

22:15

kind of tune and empathize and

22:17

see your pain and see your inner,

22:19

you know, your little girl is so

22:22

soothing for you. That's where the healing

22:24

is. Yeah. And I

22:27

think a broader stroke, the thing

22:29

that I love about what you

22:31

shared that I want to extract but

22:33

make bigger for people is that

22:36

when we start to, especially when

22:38

we're in those moments of like

22:40

a rock bottom or some sort

22:42

of rug getting pulled out from under

22:44

us, that kind of a trigger that

22:47

emulates a lot of anxiety and fear

22:49

and stuff. One thing that I really

22:52

like to remind myself in any

22:54

moment I'm in with mirrors in general is,

22:56

and I said this in the beginning, is

22:58

that they're working for you. And I think

23:01

when you are in those moments, let's say

23:03

somebody doesn't have the awareness or the

23:05

research and emotional intelligence that you have

23:07

Jessica in your relationship and that happens

23:09

to them, that's a big wound, you

23:12

know, that could really, depending on the

23:14

way that someone is reactive, could really

23:16

send them down a spiral, especially in

23:18

a newer part of the relationship. It's

23:20

like, oh, they're not that intimate. There's

23:22

just so many places it can go.

23:25

Rather, the thing that I

23:27

like that you said, I'm going to paraphrase,

23:29

but you're like, it's my job to look

23:32

at that. And everything we teach in this

23:34

work, especially with boundary work and, you know,

23:36

the energetics of it, when you start to

23:38

do the back end work, the subconscious work,

23:40

a lot of that stuff starts to shift.

23:43

So kind of the two things I want

23:45

to anchor in on just that point in

23:47

general is when you have

23:49

those moments of freeze or

23:51

activation and it all starts

23:54

unwinding, if you can remind

23:56

yourself in those moments to

23:58

help you come back into your parasympathetic. that you're like,

24:01

oh, this is happening for me. And

24:03

here's the key thing, and I talk about

24:05

this all the time, it's happening for me

24:08

because I unconsciously or consciously am calling in

24:10

a big manifestation right now. And the universe

24:12

is literally lining the things up in front

24:14

of me that I have to address in

24:17

order to be in the same, if you

24:19

want manifestation terminology, frequency is it, which means

24:21

to be in the same self-worth as the

24:23

thing I'm calling in. So if

24:26

in those moments of a mirror that's

24:28

triggering, or even the expansive ones,

24:30

if we can just stop and go like, thank

24:32

you, universe. I mean, in that

24:34

moment, you're not feeling thank you,

24:36

universe, especially in the oh shit

24:38

moment. But really, that's what's happening.

24:40

It's like, thank you, universe. Wow.

24:42

You're completely lining up in front

24:44

of me what I need to

24:46

look at, like Jessica said, and

24:49

address or integrate the expansion, if

24:51

that's what's happening, in an effort

24:53

to connect with this thing that

24:55

I'm consciously or unconsciously calling in

24:57

from my authentic self. And

24:59

this mirror is helping me

25:01

get closer to that authenticity.

25:04

So that's a big thing that I just

25:06

want people to anchor in while they're listening

25:08

to this podcast, becoming your own

25:10

energy reader, your own coach. The universe,

25:13

the moment you start consciously or unconsciously

25:15

calling something in, it's going to start

25:17

orbiting you. And the universe is going

25:19

to so beautifully begin

25:21

orchestrating and bringing the

25:23

mirrors in front of you that you need

25:26

to address for that thing. That's why we're

25:28

often saying in this

25:30

work, when people are really, really going

25:32

down the road of perfectionism of like,

25:34

what do I do next? What workshop

25:36

do I do next? How do

25:38

I find my expander? I'm in a small town. And

25:41

I've learned now, after doing this work for

25:43

so long, I'm like, you don't have to

25:45

really stress that hard, because the universe is

25:47

going to start serving it all up on

25:49

a dish. Even expanders, I find.

25:51

The ones that I go searching for

25:53

never integrate as deeply as the ones

25:55

that after I've started unblocking a few

25:57

key things that the universe is going

25:59

to do. The flats in front of me and I'm like

26:01

whoa. That was just the expansion I

26:03

need. So. If. There's

26:06

like a sound by his fifty for

26:08

can take away from this is. That.

26:10

Mirrors equal the exact thing

26:13

you need. Served in front of you

26:15

right now. In an effort

26:17

to work. With said to get

26:19

closer to that manifestation. Your unconscious.

26:30

There. Is Magnesium. And then there is

26:32

Mellow. I love this little same

26:34

because I think so many times

26:36

right now receive magnesium in the

26:38

evenings we needed for russell sleep.

26:40

It's incredible. Nutria, You know so

26:42

many people are to fish and

26:44

I think the statistic is seventy

26:46

five percent of people are decision

26:48

in this essential vitamins and impact

26:50

three hundred different compounds in the

26:52

body. And one of the reasons

26:54

I am obsessed with Ned Mellow

26:56

Magnesium Super Blinds is that not

26:58

only is it some of. The

27:00

highest quality ingredients for magnesium. They

27:03

have three forms of chili did

27:05

magnesium which means they're covering you

27:07

from all angles on the monkey

27:10

the and it's high bioavailability, Clean

27:12

ingredients, gluten free, sugar free, non

27:14

Gm I'm naturally drives not only

27:16

all that but they also had

27:19

else you need and gather in

27:21

there and I see this because

27:23

Athena Settlement that is fantastic to

27:25

use before bad to help induce

27:28

relaxation, calmness in the body and

27:30

gotta. help support our brain cells

27:32

so when we take gather before

27:34

bad or any time during the

27:36

day is helping ice cream new

27:38

neural pathways you know he bm

27:40

were always about who the new

27:42

neural pathways of herself worth movie

27:44

passes limiting beliefs so just eighteen

27:46

that magnesium drink and the evening

27:48

you are supporting your neural pathways

27:50

while you sleep so what i

27:53

like to do is take a

27:55

little scoop of their magnesium powder

27:57

i'll drop it into i put

27:59

a link little cocktail glass and then

28:01

twist it around. I'll put like a fancy

28:03

ice cube in, make it the first part

28:05

of my nightly ritual. And then maybe I'll

28:08

go journal or I'll lay down and put

28:10

on my red lights in the room. But

28:13

this is kind of like the kickoff to

28:15

my evening. It tastes fantastic. They

28:17

have two new flavors, which I've been

28:19

obsessed with recently, their pomegranate and their

28:21

Meyer lemon. The Meyer lemon,

28:23

let me know if you guys try

28:26

it out, but the Meyer lemon to

28:28

me, tastes like a lemon pound cake,

28:30

but not that sweet. I

28:32

could be crazy, but that is my taste.

28:35

It's just bringing back nostalgia of being a

28:37

kid and having that at my grandma's. And

28:40

it is absolutely delicious. And I keep both

28:42

flavors on hand so I can switch off

28:44

between the two. I also am obsessed with

28:46

their lavender berry that has been my original

28:49

favorite that I've loved since day one of

28:51

Ned, but their new flavors are also fantastic.

28:54

So if you're interested in

28:56

upping your sleep game, your

28:58

nightly ritual, you're looking for something

29:01

to help calm your nervous system

29:03

before sleep, or also just help

29:05

your neural pathways as you sleep,

29:07

I highly, highly recommend Mellow

29:09

29:11

we have a discount for you guys. You can

29:13

learn more about Ned, the incredible things that

29:27

the company is doing, and how clean and

29:30

incredible their products are, how high

29:32

quality is truly fantastic, and I

29:34

highly recommend it. One

29:43

place people get tripped up with this

29:45

is that they

29:47

may be aware and then they don't

29:50

sit and do the unblocking. Or

29:52

they'll regulate their nervous system back to sort

29:54

of like a grounded state, and I've definitely

29:57

been guilty of this, but then I won't

29:59

say that. down and do the deeper

30:01

work beyond that. I'll be like, okay, well,

30:03

now I feel better if that he didn't

30:05

listen to me, but I'm not going down

30:07

and do any DI and healing that part

30:09

of my dad, right? And so it's going

30:11

to keep coming up and it's going to

30:13

keep coming up again and again and again

30:15

in an effort to get you there. But

30:18

I think if you want to feel more

30:20

integrated with it, it is so scary, but

30:22

just sit down and take that deep dive,

30:24

sit down and give yourself that healing, because

30:26

that's actually what's going to give you the

30:28

most benefit long-term. So many people avoid that.

30:31

Sometimes they'll even exit the relationship or

30:33

the friendship or whatever it is that's

30:35

triggering them so much because they think

30:37

it's like, oh, I just don't need

30:39

to settle here. But actually they're not

30:41

addressing that wounding part. And so their

30:43

next partner, the same dynamic happens again.

30:45

When it's coming up, that is your

30:48

invitation to look at it. You're

30:50

so right. It's like, it's beautiful. Like when

30:52

you get triggered, okay, this is the invitation

30:54

of my unfinished business to

30:57

integrate and up level and all of it.

30:59

And that's a hundred percent true. I think

31:02

sometimes I've seen, I think

31:04

especially with women's, like, especially that if

31:06

there's like a stigma around anger, like

31:09

we get triggered and then

31:11

we feel like we're not

31:13

evolved or conscious or whatever.

31:15

If we have an anger

31:17

response to something, we

31:20

feel shame about it.

31:22

And then we want

31:24

to empathize and we

31:26

potentially overemphasize. We think

31:28

that's doing the work. And

31:30

what happens is there's

31:33

some dynamics, abusive dynamics,

31:36

that people actually can get stuck

31:38

in because they're like, oh, well,

31:40

this is mirror and this is only me and

31:43

it's not them. And so I just need to

31:45

work on my button and I stay in the

31:48

abusive cycle. So I feel like

31:50

I want to name that your

31:52

anger, it is there to help

31:54

you. It's an alarm system to

31:56

look at where your boundaries potentially

31:59

were crossed. and

32:01

there's no shame about like your nervous

32:03

system is there to protect you and

32:05

a fight response or a fight or

32:07

flight response that is appropriate.

32:09

So it's not like we've solved all

32:12

of our childhood issues and we never

32:14

and we're just neutral and we're never

32:16

triggered. It's like no, there are times

32:19

where you know we get

32:21

triggered and our nervous system is trying

32:23

to help us leave or move or

32:25

shift or change and yes we

32:27

want to look at okay what is the

32:29

deeper button that's pressed here that we can

32:31

integrate but sometimes it's also asking

32:34

for an actionable step to say I

32:36

need to set a boundary here, I

32:38

need to walk away or this isn't healthy for

32:40

me. It's not just like oh

32:43

this person is triggering my unhilled stuff

32:45

like sometimes they did something wrong. They're

32:47

out of their integrity. So I've seen

32:49

this so many times working with women

32:51

in abusive relationships where they're like

32:53

oh they're just triggering my dad and it's like

32:55

your dad was abusive you know and you want

32:57

to you something with it

32:59

you know and it's not just about

33:02

sitting and integrating your dad was right.

33:04

So I want to name that too

33:07

almost to reframe like if you're feeling

33:09

anger about something and maybe not just

33:11

a partner maybe it's a boss or

33:13

a friend or whatever that's not

33:15

shameful. It's really important to know

33:17

that that is not shameful to go this anger

33:20

is actually like a sacred messenger and what

33:23

is it wanting to tell me. I

33:26

love love love that you named that nuance

33:29

because I think that's so important. I mean

33:31

everyone falls on the spectrum right like some

33:33

people are gonna avoid their mirrors some people

33:35

are gonna over take responsibility

33:37

for them and not get the message and

33:40

get out of the unhealthy or unsafe situation

33:42

so that's so important I'm really glad you

33:44

named that. And

33:46

most importantly what you said which was

33:48

so important they're gonna do their

33:50

work on the side of the street you

33:53

know the back work but there also won't

33:55

be a line to action so I'm so

33:57

important to address that in this. Okay one.

34:00

question around this. So this person

34:02

asks mirror or trigger. To give an

34:04

example, there is someone who at

34:06

work rubs me the wrong way. She's always

34:09

late to meetings, requests things last minute of

34:11

everyone, not just me, which I find disrespectful

34:13

of people's time. And even though I've spoken

34:15

to her about how this makes me feel

34:18

and set clear boundaries around it, she still

34:20

continues to act this way towards others and

34:22

occasionally me, which I

34:24

can now push back on with confidence, but

34:26

it's still so irritating. Is this just a

34:28

standard trigger and I need to continue to

34:31

set clear boundaries or is this a mirror

34:33

most likely showing me what I've suppressed? Growing

34:35

up, I was taught to always be respectful of

34:37

others, be the good girl, sometimes at the faults

34:40

of my own needs. Am I jealous that she

34:42

gets to treat people this way and seemingly not

34:44

care why I continue to act in the right

34:46

way or is it both? Yeah,

34:49

so what I'm noticing is somebody

34:52

that's under functioning and she

34:54

might have a history

34:56

of being a good girl and in order

34:58

for her safety or her love or her

35:00

whatever, she

35:03

maybe have over functioned and worked so

35:06

hard to dot all her I's and

35:08

cross all her T's. And

35:10

she's looking at this girl going, no I's

35:12

are dotted, no T's are crossed, what the

35:15

heck? And so this is an

35:17

interesting one because it could be both and. There

35:20

is a boundary that needs to be set. That

35:22

anger is informing you

35:24

that there's somebody that is stepping on her

35:26

toes, right? She does want to call it

35:28

out. There is something to address here. It's

35:30

not that it's all her trigger and

35:33

there might be a part of

35:35

her where she is over functioning

35:37

and she does need to maybe

35:40

give herself some grace or step

35:42

down a little bit and not be

35:44

in such an over functioning perfectionist state.

35:46

Like where does she actually need

35:49

to kind of maybe slow down herself? So

35:51

that's again that same there might be a

35:53

core wound expressed differently. So one

35:56

thing I want to clarify from that is

35:59

in manifestation energy. a mirror and a

36:01

trigger are the same thing. I

36:03

think that aspect is huge. I

36:05

think too, recognizing the

36:08

both and when you have the mirror

36:11

or trigger, mirror slash trigger in this

36:13

case, there can always be an

36:15

opportunity to set a boundary to say like,

36:17

you know what, this is what this is,

36:20

or let's call it the savior, let's have

36:22

a conversation. Hey, this behavior made me feel

36:24

XYZ, you know, put in the nonviolent communication

36:26

tools to practice. But then you

36:28

can look at it. It's not that you

36:30

have to take full ownership and responsibility for

36:33

someone else's behavior. It's that you

36:35

can figure out what it activates and you

36:37

to heal that use that invitation, but

36:39

then also set your boundary. So I

36:42

think keeping those both ends in mind

36:44

when navigating these two. Yeah,

36:46

exactly. And from an

36:48

energetic perspective, because she did talk to

36:50

her to set a boundary, but it's

36:53

not super changing that, like we teach

36:55

in the boundary workshop here, it means

36:57

that she does have some deeper subconscious

36:59

work to be doing because it's continuing

37:01

to happen in her realm. And

37:03

so, you know, that's when we kind of talk about throwing

37:06

the line in the sand. So most

37:08

often people will set a

37:10

boundary verbally or actionably without

37:12

having done the subconscious work.

37:15

She has the conscious awareness that she

37:17

was raised to always be the good girl, do the

37:19

right thing, blah, blah, blah. But what's really down there

37:22

that's continuing to attract that experience. Had

37:24

she really addressed it on a subconscious level

37:26

and had that healing and

37:29

the confidence in that healing, that expansion,

37:31

this woman would not continue doing this with her.

37:34

Maybe with others in the office for sure, but

37:36

not with her. So that's also her energetic

37:38

indication that she hasn't really like

37:40

hit the root subconscious thing yet.

37:54

By now, you're starting to get the feel for TPM.

37:56

Maybe you've heard about her workshops and you're interested

37:59

in manifestation. You just don't

38:01

have the time or energy to sit down

38:03

and do self-help work. We totally get it.

38:05

In fact, that's why we created the daily

38:07

practice, which is our massive library of

38:10

self-hypnosis tracks that you can do anytime

38:12

without having to jimp into a workshop.

38:14

We call these tracks our deep imaginings,

38:16

or DI's. DI's are

38:18

different than normal meditations because

38:21

we designed them using a

38:23

combination of self-hypnosis techniques, deep

38:26

data waves, EMDR-informed tools, and

38:28

somatic experiencing. A

38:30

fully loaded formula that is scientifically proven

38:32

to help you clear your blocks and

38:35

triggers on a subconscious level, giving you

38:37

the power to actually create new neural

38:39

pathways in your brain. So

38:41

if your boss pisses you off, use our trigger DI.

38:44

If you want to feel magnetic before a

38:46

party or an important meeting, use the magnetic

38:48

self-DI. If you're feeling anxious

38:50

or down on yourself or you need help

38:52

making a decision, we've got a

38:54

DI for all of these scenarios and more. You

38:57

can get full access to the

38:59

daily practice inside the Pathway membership,

39:01

where you'll also get unlimited access

39:03

to every workshop, tool, and offering

39:05

39:07

the Pathway membership will support you year-round,

39:09

whether you're in the worst, a rock

39:52

back to the episode. Okay,

40:04

and then now to the more exciting

40:07

part of Mirror is the vision holders,

40:09

the people that are showing us what's

40:12

possible, that's sharing us what's possible. Lacey,

40:15

you had a really, really good old blog post

40:17

and we'll have to link in the show notes

40:19

too, but how at that time when you had

40:21

written this blog post, you were like, my

40:23

recent vision holders have been clients and

40:25

pathway members stopping on the street sharing

40:27

their experiences, telling me how the works

40:29

completely changed their life and how important in the world it

40:32

is. They're planting seeds

40:34

to continue to reinforce the vision

40:36

of expanding TBM and they're the

40:38

most profound mirrors and flash expanders

40:41

because they are planting that seed

40:43

almost sometimes beyond the scene is

40:45

believing. They're seeing what's beyond even

40:48

seeing at that moment. Over

40:50

the past year, I've had so many of these

40:52

pop into my life, just what

40:54

felt at random and really

40:57

hold that vision and saw things in

40:59

me that was like, what? You saw

41:01

that from that? That's cool. Okay, amazing.

41:03

And this is such a powerful energetic to work

41:06

with too. Lacey, talk a little bit about vision

41:08

holders. Yeah, vision

41:10

holders are, I like

41:12

to think about my ex's mom, Domi,

41:14

often who came into my life as

41:16

the most ultimate example of a vision

41:18

holder for me, especially at the time

41:21

I think I was around 24, 25,

41:24

like at the epitome of low

41:26

self force, even though externally I seem

41:28

so confident in everything that I was

41:30

doing, but like my real wounds that

41:32

were really running on a

41:35

subconscious level. And

41:37

this woman, she's just the most

41:39

miraculous person, anybody who knows her, she really,

41:42

really had this connection with me,

41:44

that Libra Aquarius connection. And

41:47

the way that she saw me

41:49

in a way that I absolutely

41:51

did not see myself at

41:54

all times was probably

41:56

one of the biggest propellers in

41:58

healing my low

42:00

self-worth as I was doing the unblocking

42:03

work. Just like seeing my

42:05

magic at all times and thinking

42:07

so highly of me and seeing

42:09

unique aspects of me

42:11

that were never attuned to or

42:13

witnessed in childhood. So

42:16

I like to look at that and

42:18

it's just the ultimate picture of a

42:20

vision holder. Even though vision holders,

42:22

you know, they're forms of expanders that come in

42:24

many different ways like the ones Jessica was just

42:26

talking about. Vision holders can appear

42:28

in so many different ways that we're not

42:30

even aware of, right? Like, it can be

42:33

some exciting into your DM, you know, who

42:35

just like sees you, their projection of you

42:37

and it's a really positive, accurate

42:39

one. I love them. And

42:42

I think when people are in low

42:44

self-worth and they're looping on that, they

42:46

don't always have the tools they need

42:49

to integrate those compliments and those visions.

42:51

Let that be in your awareness listening to this

42:54

episode. When you have those people

42:56

pop up and pop into your life, go

42:58

the extra mile to integrate it in the

43:00

sense of like, you know, any expansion work

43:02

you do in here, like take it in

43:04

and own it and be grateful for it.

43:07

It's like universe-sent, God-sent. Yeah,

43:10

they're like little angels and you're,

43:12

I mean, if I look back and I

43:14

think of different like teachers I had in

43:16

elementary or high school or just different people,

43:18

you could probably go through your whole life

43:20

and just go, that person really saw me.

43:23

I really saw me. And

43:26

when you go back there, it's like there's

43:29

something so honestly healing to our soul

43:33

and our nervous system to be

43:35

seen and loved

43:38

and we can take that in and

43:40

there's this deep sense of connection

43:42

and regulation and felt safety,

43:45

you know, just even thinking

43:47

about the vision holders in our life.

43:50

So profound, right? I

43:52

think too, one thing to note, and

43:55

this is in that blog post as well,

43:57

but like if you have lower self-worth and

43:59

belief in yourself. you're almost not going to

44:01

believe the vision holders at first. You're going to

44:03

be like, what are they seeing? And

44:05

if you are that person and you're not

44:07

believing the vision holders in your life who

44:09

are showing what's possible for you, like take

44:12

this as a sign that it is possible

44:14

for you. The vision holders would not be

44:16

showing up if that wasn't something

44:18

that you were supposed to be expanded

44:21

by. The fact that they are there

44:23

are messages to you to show you

44:25

that it's possible. So really

44:27

take that in. Allow yourself to receive

44:29

the messages from them. I think it's

44:31

a big deal. I

44:34

feel like that's such an inspirational point to end off.

44:37

Yes. I end off on. Yes.

44:40

So to summarize, mirrors

44:42

are going to pop up in our daily life.

44:44

They are all around us. And

44:46

they are our invitations to our

44:48

expansion, to our healing. And

44:51

we don't need to blame ourselves if we have

44:53

a mirror that is really

44:55

awful and triggering and hard.

44:58

There might be a boundary that needs to

45:00

be set there, but there's also something that

45:02

we can look at internally when those things

45:04

happen. And when you have those vision holder

45:06

mirrors, let them

45:08

expand you. Let them be the guideposts.

45:11

I think about so many things in life,

45:13

like as I'm manifesting the next home for

45:15

Daniel and I, I'm getting strangers sending me

45:17

like, Jessica, I saw this house and I

45:19

thought of you. I don't even know these

45:21

people. And they're like already thinking about me

45:23

in my house one day. Like I think

45:25

it's the coolest thing ever. So just let

45:28

those people guide you and know that

45:30

those are notes and messages from the

45:32

universe helping you along your journey. Yes,

45:36

exactly. Thanks, guys.

45:39

Thanks for being here and

45:41

happy mirroring. Bye. Bye. I

45:50

hope you all enjoyed that episode as much as

45:52

we did. And if you're starting to get a

From The Podcast

EXPANDED Podcast by To Be Magnetic™

The Expanded Podcast is the leading manifestation podcast, hosted by Lacy Phillips, founder of To Be Magnetic™ and co-hosted by TBM’s Chief Content Officer, Jessica Gill. It’s based on Neural Manifestation™, TBM’s unique process that’s rooted in neuroscience, psychology, epigenetics, and energetics– with a little spirituality sprinkled on top.While Expanded ranks as one of the best spiritual podcasts, our focus is really on the science and psychology behind manifestation. Our goal is to normalize the practice of manifestation and empower you to get into the driver's seat of your life in order to manifest the experiences, relationships, and things that most align with your authenticity. We cover topics like inner child healing, shadow work, boundaries, how to reprogram your subconscious mind (and why this is so important), clarity, how to manifest dreams, create magnetism, and harness intuition. Part of our manifestation process entails “expanding” past your limiting subconscious beliefs. So, by tuning into this podcast with interviews from experts, thought leaders, spiritual teachers, scientists, and those with Neural Manifestation™ success stories, you are starting the process of “Expanding” your subconscious in order to ‘see to believe’ that anything you desire is possible. And by pressing play, the process begins!Create your daily manifestation practice in The Pathway, our all-access workshop membership, found on tobemagnetic.com.
