made me Bouchard on passion struck. Welcome

6:31

Mimi. Time. Thank you so much

6:33

for having me! I am so excited

6:35

for this conversation! I. Am

6:37

so excited as well. And recently

6:39

I know what it is, but

6:41

I have been interviewing a lot

6:43

of Canadians and specifically people from

6:46

Toronto. Which. I've spent

6:48

some time there. It's a fantastic city. And

6:51

it's where you grew up. But. What

6:53

influenced you when you were just. Eighteen.

6:56

Years old. To. Leave home and

6:58

moved to England. It's

7:00

a great question. I really wanted to

7:02

do something quite dramatic. I went through

7:04

pretty hard time in my teenage years

7:06

I just lost my thousand that partying

7:09

a lot doing a lot of drive.

7:11

It's just very much a completely different.

7:13

For instance, didn't see who I am

7:15

today to you I was sent to

7:17

be and I decided on when I

7:19

first. Got into this person

7:21

on development journey at around seventeen eighteen

7:24

years old. I got into it quite

7:26

young almost a decade ago. I really.

7:29

Just. Decided that I needed

7:31

to be in a different environment, I

7:33

started reading all these are small development

7:35

bucks. They started to listen to all

7:38

the. And years on You

7:40

Tube, the Tony Robbins and all. and

7:42

I just had to see that feeling

7:44

that I needed to move to a

7:46

different country to kind of reinvent myself.

7:48

And that being said, looking back, I

7:50

think I'd definitely have done it while

7:52

being in the same that he. But

7:54

I was just a point where I

7:56

wanted radical change and I decided to

7:58

go somewhere far away that. English and

8:00

London was kind of where my mind slandered.

8:02

As a Canadian you could get a two

8:05

year working visa and I kind of went

8:07

there and saved up all summer working at

8:09

a restaurant. Moved there on a whim and

8:11

tried to make my dreams happen. I'm

8:14

interested to hear then. How

8:17

once you move their you found yourself

8:19

on the reality tv show Made in

8:21

Chelsea. Yeah. That was

8:23

quite a whirlwind because when I first

8:26

moved to London I was nineteen and

8:28

I was working for five. job is

8:30

trying to make ends meet. Rent was

8:32

really sensitive especially coming from Canadian dollar

8:35

if you British pounds and the i

8:37

was broke like I was self sufficient

8:39

since I left home at seven pm

8:41

and I didn't really have any money.

8:43

So I was working at a juice

8:46

bar from six am to noon and

8:48

then I don't work at a styling

8:50

agency from noon to five and then.

8:52

I would take the tube across

8:54

the city and to go nanny

8:56

at this Italian families home and

8:58

nanny the kids until ten pm

9:01

and and work on my online

9:03

magazine which is my first entrepreneurial

9:05

dancer right after that and I

9:07

was just a pure hustler. I'd

9:09

also go dog walking to make

9:11

extra money like I was just

9:13

really picking up jobs wherever I've

9:15

heard. and as my online magazine

9:17

grew and I was really working

9:19

towards that being my first big

9:21

break, I started referring. Videos on you

9:23

Tube and for my online magazine. And

9:25

I realize I really liked being on

9:27

camera. So I thought to myself as

9:29

my visa was now going to fire

9:31

In a year I'd been in London

9:34

for a yard, living this type of

9:36

life, working endlessly and really has playing

9:38

at that point. I remember at one

9:40

point during that time in my life

9:42

I only had eight dollars in my

9:44

bank account and I was delayed for

9:46

my job at the juice bar and

9:48

I had to call my sister who

9:50

was in Australia for time I had

9:52

just missed. The bus. I. Was going to

9:54

be way. I didn't have time to wait for the

9:56

next pass and I can be way. And I didn't

9:58

have money for an Uber and. The I remember

10:00

her of ordering me like as six

10:03

or seven dollar ooh burn from Australia

10:05

and now is like the lowest point

10:07

in my life. I really just felt

10:09

like I was working so hard not

10:11

really seeing results. So how that kind

10:14

of turned into this tv show opportunity.

10:16

I realize I needed to get an

10:18

a new visa to say in London

10:20

and I wanted a new opportunity. I

10:22

was always looking for opportunities at that

10:24

time. And I met at an

10:27

event. This. Woman and she then

10:29

became my agent. Later that year I had

10:31

met her and I said to her i

10:33

want to get into Tv presenting I really

10:35

like being on camera. I want to be

10:38

a plus center and hopefully being a presenter

10:40

will get me a visa to say in

10:42

the Uk and she looked at me and

10:44

she said niemi there is no way you're

10:47

going to be a presenter in England. They

10:49

like a British accent. It also has a

10:51

really difficult industry to get into bed. If

10:53

you can get onto the Cds shall meet

10:56

into the I Will Represent You Right. Away

10:58

or start making more money. And I can assure

11:00

you that so that you have either. So.

11:02

Then my eyes were sat on getting on

11:04

this show and I met someone who knew

11:06

someone and it just gonna happen. Said I

11:09

was kind of my first. It was

11:11

the definitely the beginning of my journey. This is

11:13

almost ten years ago. That being said, I was

11:15

on the show for two years. I. Was

11:17

a side character for most of it but

11:19

it's so exposed me to so many. Opportunity

11:22

is and a really helped me grow up

11:24

quite quickly at that young age being on

11:26

such a crazy tv show. That's

11:29

interesting. I live here in St.

11:31

Petersburg, which is close to. Some.

11:34

Of the best speeches. On the

11:36

side of the United States, we have.

11:39

A Cpp each treasure island

11:41

accent try and. There been

11:43

a couple Tv shows that were filmed here and

11:45

I happened to be getting lunch with friend of

11:47

mine one day. When. This television

11:49

crew just comes into this random. Eatery

11:52

that we wrap because it was on

11:54

the water which I think made a

11:57

difference but they started setting up in

11:59

this table. There's about fifteen feet

12:01

away from us and. As.

12:03

They were setting up. I'd notice

12:05

that some of the stars because

12:07

I didn't know this show. Were.

12:10

Sitting around me and they were

12:12

all. Separate. From each other.

12:15

And. Then about five ten minutes before

12:17

they're filming happened a couple of i'm

12:19

kind of cluster together and then they

12:21

just sat down. And started having

12:24

this ad hoc. Type. Of discussion

12:26

over lunch at this table.

12:28

Where. They started arguing and doing these

12:30

other things and I guess I wanted to

12:33

ask you. How much of that

12:35

a scripted and how much of it just comes

12:37

out of a natural flow? So.

12:40

It on the cell say really shouldn't be

12:42

hard Reality that fit for my Syrian, it's

12:44

not. There are axes on the ground where

12:46

to go. Sand city are being breached by

12:48

a producer almost to the extent you don't

12:50

have scrapped spare, you are being briefed and

12:52

told essentially if you want to do well

12:54

in that scene if you want to be

12:56

able to sell more, if you want to

12:58

be able to make more money because the

13:00

mores on the more money you make in

13:02

a P Like crop by way of getting

13:04

paid sixty pounds a day for filming for

13:07

a twelve hour a day when I first

13:09

started and that. It's how you they push

13:11

you and manipulative way really take advantage

13:13

of young hadn't weaker people and I

13:15

was that at the time I was

13:17

really young and I just I did

13:19

what they told me too because there

13:21

are also dangling this visa over my

13:23

head and I just said you know

13:25

what I never thought I would ever

13:27

do a tv so this is probably

13:29

the classiest reality show you could ever

13:31

do. Made himself the it's like the

13:33

hills but in it's an affluent area

13:35

in. London. That they

13:37

found these young, supposedly rich kids

13:39

able to have any. Time.

13:42

Because I was literally going to baby sit

13:44

at night after filming holidays they could not

13:46

make. it was such a double life that

13:48

because on the outside they try to make

13:50

you seem you come from a family of

13:52

well when my parents are struggling artist I

13:54

didn't have that but they really. Wanted.

13:57

To position you in a certain way for is a

13:59

shell. This show was not very real.

14:01

There are some things that were real by

14:03

it's a lot of it. wasn't because the

14:05

cast was pressured to make up story line

14:07

to get more filming day bucks. Different.

14:10

the sofa or so surreal for me

14:13

because St. Pete. Beach. Where

14:15

we were. Is a really

14:17

laid back area. Of

14:19

I'm talking flip flops and people

14:22

wearing probably. Shirts. They slept

14:24

in the the hip for her and

14:26

not really caring and they filmed the

14:28

scene with. The. Two guys driving

14:31

up in like a Lamborghini or Ferrari and

14:33

then they looked like they were more South

14:35

Beach than. They. Were anything to

14:37

do with us or the hoping

14:39

to me just didn't flow with

14:41

where they were at. But anyway

14:44

what I want to get into

14:46

a some of your back story

14:48

about your transition because we talk

14:50

a lot about. Being. Stuck

14:52

on this podcast, but oftentimes

14:55

we're talking to people. Who.

14:57

Are much further into their life when

15:00

they realize that they're on a really.

15:03

Difficult and wrong path to where

15:05

they wanna be. And for you,

15:07

you realize the shift when you're

15:09

in your teens. But

15:12

even. When you realize you need to

15:14

make a shift, Often. Times the

15:17

most difficult thing you can do is

15:19

take that first step. Was

15:22

there a fundamental realization?

15:25

That led you. To. Even make

15:27

that step. Yeah.

15:30

I had reached my breaking

15:32

point. I. Had. Felt so

15:34

disconnected to my real south. This is

15:36

a my late teens again I went

15:39

through everything very young time I started

15:41

drinking and doing drugs that like twelve

15:43

years old like I was really yeah

15:46

it's and. I don't

15:48

know why. I think it was just I

15:50

was growing up in a big city and

15:52

I had bad influences around me and I

15:54

felt very much like I didn't belong. I

15:56

with that we kind of a different. Kid

15:59

and I think. Started getting really insecure

16:01

about how has that more quirky engines

16:03

different at the board I thought when

16:05

I was my early teens I really

16:07

just. kind of went down

16:10

the of wrong road and everything

16:12

from drugs, alcohol to eating disorder,

16:14

a self harm like I really

16:16

was not in a good place

16:19

and when i reached seventeen. Eighteen

16:21

years old I started to realize after

16:23

kind of being exposed to just some

16:25

preliminary for a small development content I

16:27

started just to realize that there was

16:29

like another way that could be living

16:31

my life. I could be living my

16:33

life in a way where I didn't

16:35

feel like a victim. in a way

16:37

where I could actually design what my

16:39

future would look like. song. Personal.

16:42

Development I just started getting really into and it

16:44

was like this new big thing that I just.

16:47

Felt. So much or towards an answer

16:49

your question. What was that breaking

16:51

point for me? What really made

16:53

me make that initial switch was

16:55

feeling like crap. It was waking

16:57

up and hating myself and realizing

16:59

the i can't live like that.

17:02

It doesn't work like I can't do

17:04

that sustainably. I'm also not happy. I

17:06

also hate myself so I need to

17:08

change something. I started really diving into

17:10

the work and back then this is

17:13

a decade ago or small development wasn't

17:15

that cool. So it was just like.

17:17

Something. Night I didn't really talk about

17:19

at first plan. I just started reading these

17:22

books and listening to these mentors online and

17:24

I just got really into at I I

17:26

one page is locked myself in my room

17:28

and try to figure out what I wanted

17:30

in my life. I didn't know it, career

17:32

I wanted, I know direction and this is

17:34

right before I moved to London. I locked

17:37

myself in my room and I just got

17:39

an empty journal and I just wrote for

17:41

days and days. I barely left that room

17:43

and I just figured it out. I was

17:45

like okay what am I good at. What?

17:48

Am I not good at what can I

17:50

try doing? Because I've now realize it's reading

17:52

these books, that there is more for me

17:54

out there. I've now realize that little voice

17:56

inside of me that kept telling me this

17:58

doesn't really feel like me every. Hi I

18:00

would make a decision that was on alone. I

18:03

started listening to that voice. More and

18:05

more that I listen to it than

18:07

more it became louder and louder. So

18:09

for me it was just a very

18:11

steady ambition that I started to uncover

18:13

at that time. And it's ambition of

18:15

living a babe are like this just

18:18

like excitement about living in different life

18:20

and. I. Started to think about what

18:22

I could become like I felt like

18:24

I was at this fresh slate in

18:26

my life where I just could take

18:28

many different roads and I get designed

18:30

this. The. Future of mine and age

18:33

of thirty getting by exciting for me

18:35

is so I would say I physically

18:37

bell i crap and mentally that like

18:39

half and I just decided it's time

18:41

to change and. At. First it

18:43

didn't happen instantly. I go back to the

18:45

old habits die within. the kind of dance

18:47

as going out and partying with my friends

18:50

and then trying to do a morning routine

18:52

in the morning like it really wasn't linear.

18:54

this journey with up and down and then

18:56

over the years that became more and more.

18:58

I guess linear trajectory. I got higher rate

19:00

of transformation over the years. The more you

19:03

do it the better you get. So that's

19:05

really high level how it happens. Now.

19:08

Thank you for sharing! Mad and at

19:10

least in my case and in the

19:12

case of some people I've talked to,

19:15

I think there's a voice we often

19:17

hear and I call and are louder

19:19

voice that is often telling us keep

19:21

doing what you're doing, you're doing enough,

19:23

you're making progress, you've got money, you've

19:25

got com for whatever it is and

19:27

I think there's acquired or voice. That's.

19:30

Inside of Solve that is more difficult

19:32

to here unless you're doing the work.

19:35

Around introspection and really trying to get

19:37

that self awareness about yourself, Do you

19:39

find that to be true? Small? Absolutely.

19:43

That I do think that which is the

19:45

real voice and you just tune into your

19:47

intuition. I think which is the real you

19:50

And I always say that this journey of

19:52

self development is more about unbecoming what you're

19:54

not then it is becoming something that you

19:56

never bet. It's so. My theory is that

19:58

just like an onion. I've I

20:01

was becoming my best self. my future self.

20:03

the life that I live now. I was

20:05

peeling back the layers of the onion and

20:07

removing all the things that I never why

20:10

is that I just took on things that

20:12

society told me to be things that I

20:14

that would help me be more likes, things

20:16

that may be an old friend taught me

20:19

to do. For example, I had a friend

20:21

that twelve years old teach me how to

20:23

make myself grow up with those things are

20:26

yours And I think when you do this

20:28

work and you really think about it as

20:30

unbecoming. It you feel more like it's

20:32

meant for you because I can tell

20:34

you right now John I feel more

20:36

connected to that little girl by i

20:38

used to be at six seven eight

20:40

years old before I was all messed

20:42

up from the world. I feel more

20:44

like for than ever before now and

20:46

I. Can. Honestly say that reconnection

20:48

is such a big part of this journey

20:51

that such a big part of. Creating.

20:53

Success and Happiness and your Life for

20:55

me. When I first embark on this

20:57

personal development journey with because of more

20:59

of materialistic things, I wanted to make

21:01

a ton of money and I wired

21:04

to look better. I wanted to lose

21:06

weight in a healthy way. I wanted

21:08

to start loving myself, I wanted to

21:10

clear my skin, I wanted the physical

21:12

thing as and it's worth all that

21:14

happened. I've done a complete one eighty

21:16

and all those department save and the

21:18

healthiest that ever been. I have a

21:20

completely separate relationship with myself. I went

21:22

from a dollar. The my bank account

21:24

now been worth tens of millions of

21:26

dollars. At twenty seven years old, it's

21:28

really crazy, actually. wet. This. Can

21:31

do for the out outside

21:33

external stuff. Felt really looking

21:35

back. Experiencing this dramatic

21:37

life transformation, I have truly realized

21:39

that it's more about need to

21:42

next thing with that truest version

21:44

of myself no matter what everything

21:46

else looks like. It.

21:49

Is so interconnected. Healing

21:51

and finding success. Yeah.

21:54

I think that's an important thing to may be explored

21:56

just a little bit more. There's something I often talk

21:58

about on the show called. The discrepancy

22:00

theory. Which. Is the three solves

22:03

that We all have our actual self which

22:05

is who we are in this moment. The.

22:07

Odds Self which is who we think we should be in

22:09

the Ideal Self which is who we. Could. Be

22:12

and so often times we go down

22:14

the path of becoming are ah, how

22:16

were you able to instead of going

22:18

down that path as you're talking about

22:20

these qualities and characteristics that you aspired

22:23

to have in your life? How did

22:25

you make those choices? Between not listening

22:27

to what you think you should be

22:29

doing, but actually doing the things that

22:32

you wanted to drive you to that

22:34

dream that you talked about as a

22:36

little girl? you wanted to become. Because.

22:39

I think that's a very difficult thing for many

22:41

people to do. Because. We're

22:43

drawn. To. Do the

22:45

things that. Result. In

22:47

Us becoming are ah itself. Spotted

23:50

For the first five years of my for

23:52

it's not about than journey is that route

23:54

seventeen eighteen year and will have had both

23:56

all in five years. I did it things

23:58

the way that everyone else. I need

24:00

to add is really consumed of books. Like

24:02

I was saying, I was trying to do

24:05

the morning routine. the visualization of. Fight.

24:07

Am club. I was trying to do all

24:09

of that and and it's growing but at

24:11

a very low pays over the past three

24:14

four years posts that or actually the five

24:16

years cause that I'm like timing it though

24:18

if I'm not good I can't viewings having

24:20

but the five years post that I have

24:22

grown in such a different trajectory compared to

24:24

the for five years because of actually have

24:27

honed in on what freely works for me.

24:29

So I'll give you some backstory and and

24:31

I'll tell you exactly what I did when

24:33

I was first reading other books and really

24:35

inundating my mind with these new. Concepts and

24:38

Principles of the Berries. I did exactly

24:40

what they said. sad it's right down

24:42

in Journal Ninety Nine Nation by which

24:44

really try to act as if and

24:46

embodied the energy into I wanted should

24:49

be but I didn't do it in

24:51

a way where I can maintain it

24:53

because I wasn't embodying that in everyday

24:55

moment. So what I started to do

24:57

and everyone told me to meditate and

24:59

I tried so hard on I was

25:02

like really trying to do this visualization

25:04

thing every morning and meditate to it.

25:06

Sometimes I was. Never consistent like I

25:08

was consistent with the other things. and

25:10

I think I just told myself back

25:12

then that I my brain works too

25:14

quickly, I can't focus, I watch. It

25:16

was too boring and through the traditional

25:19

meditation. so what are you intuitive? We

25:21

decided to do. This is around five

25:23

years ago, As I

25:25

took my phone out and I opened

25:27

the voice Memo app on my phone

25:29

and while I was journaling like my

25:32

visualizations and really trying to understand who

25:34

I wanted to become and version of

25:36

the I aspire to be i was

25:38

started recording me speaking that out loud.

25:40

So I started to record. Mean.

25:43

Describing my future life like it was already

25:45

in the present moment and I take these

25:47

audio and I would listen to them in

25:49

everyday moments I would listen to it on

25:52

repeat while I was cooking breakfast, walking to

25:54

the gym, going into the bus making my

25:56

that in the morning brushing my teeth getting

25:58

ready I would just list. He

26:00

wrote in the background of

26:02

my life and I started

26:04

to see significant changes happen

26:07

after that point and I

26:09

was fascinated with how this

26:11

was genuinely helping me make

26:13

different decisions. Is listening to

26:15

these audio as I started getting so

26:17

familiar with my future self by doing

26:20

this? And everything I had

26:22

done the previous five years. Just

26:24

like it all came into clarity for

26:26

me, this was thing that emulated all

26:28

these other things I was learning. So

26:30

the visualization that was so important because

26:33

you really need to understand where you're

26:35

going. You need to feel what it

26:37

feels like before you get there. And

26:40

then and do the habit that version of you dies.

26:42

But I believe that to get to where you want

26:44

to be in life you must for have become the

26:46

kind of person that has it. So. I

26:48

started listening to these audio is and

26:50

I get bored and really quickly and

26:52

and I referred more and then I

26:54

started getting into podcasting Favorite would record

26:56

them all my podcasting Mike and I'd

26:58

I'd music because I love the power

27:00

of music. I've always been the kind

27:02

of person that really felt an energetic

27:04

difference when I'm listening to very beautiful

27:06

like cinematic music. So I kind of

27:08

just started creating these like hopes of

27:10

audio that I'd listen to it and

27:12

it was part of my first Saw

27:14

growth journey and since then I started

27:16

getting these amazing idea. For business I

27:19

started having all these opportunities fall into

27:21

my lap I started she was truly

27:23

be com the person I wanted to

27:25

be from a self image. Perspective.

27:28

Self Image psychology is something that we

27:31

need to talk about more in the

27:33

profile growth space because it truly is

27:35

the poor regarding how to transform for

27:37

if you. For. Example: Want

27:39

to start running every morning, but you don't

27:42

identify as a runner. You don't have the

27:44

self image of a runner. It is going

27:46

to be so hard for you to get

27:48

up and put your running shoes on and

27:50

go for a run. What if you half

27:53

with the some? What if you. Start.

27:55

To. Embody, The

27:57

energy of the version of.

28:00

You bet is a runner. What did you

28:02

started listening to audio saying this is my

28:04

new belief. These are my new thought and

28:06

just like playing with the idea of this

28:09

actually just becoming a part of your itself

28:11

and age, a part of you and then

28:13

see how much easier it is to get

28:15

up and go for Iran and this happen

28:18

with everything in your life. If you identify

28:20

as the type of person that is Toby's

28:22

that takes care of their body, guess what?

28:24

Smoke in the be hard to drive by

28:26

the Mcdonald the not even think about it

28:29

because of hot. Food You if you

28:31

are very health conscious person. I

28:33

don't frames unhealthy food because I'd

28:35

identify as someone that just loves

28:37

eating healthy. Good quality food and

28:39

this happens in every other area.

28:42

I had to identify as the type

28:44

of person that became a millionaire. Before

28:46

ever became one side started making decisions

28:48

like a millionaire. I started acting and

28:50

speaking and holding myself like a millionaire.

28:52

and then these things just started happening.

28:54

We have to reverse engineer the protests

28:57

to make it easier. So. I

28:59

started listening to the audio than and

29:01

that kind of. Literally. Was

29:03

the bag search turned into my

29:05

company? Superhuman! I have an app

29:07

called Superhuman. We offer these activation

29:09

the that's what the audio are.

29:11

They're called activation than they're not

29:13

Medication Meditation center com your mind

29:15

and help you not think about

29:17

anything. But. Activations are designed

29:20

to invigorate you. To.

29:22

Transform you into your future self to

29:24

help you rewire all thoughts and beliefs

29:26

and the beautiful thing about activations and

29:28

why they work better than any other

29:30

type of audio to help you transform

29:32

it because when you listen to them,

29:35

you listen to them and everyday moment

29:37

the mundane you listen to them. When.

29:39

You're walking the dog us into them

29:41

when you're getting ready in the morning

29:43

and whatever mundane moments in your life

29:45

that you decide to listen to a

29:47

superhuman after. the sense that is when

29:50

you are neural pathways start to rewire

29:52

and change because you are mixing and

29:54

new thought and a new believe with

29:56

an everyday action. And just like the

29:58

Pavlov dog theory if you. Then to

30:00

a getting Ready activation every morning when

30:02

you're getting ready for your day and

30:04

getting dressed. And. You

30:07

listen to this and you actually feel

30:09

the energy of your future and you

30:12

just feel that new positive energy you

30:14

feel of a level of you feel

30:16

abundant, You feel happy, feel confident. You.

30:19

Don't even need to listen to the

30:21

activations after a certain point Feel the

30:23

difference. It is program you and he

30:25

is everyday moment. That is

30:27

what makes it so effective. It's habits

30:29

hacking. It's not hard to change with

30:31

that as and this is the biggest

30:33

realization I hygiene because as I was

30:36

trying so hard I didn't think there

30:38

have been easy way. Until

30:40

I found this and I was never that

30:42

have a person that could be perfect A.

30:45

Never had one perfect day One from

30:47

this entire journey over the past decade

30:49

and I truly believe it's not actually

30:51

about with action. It's about your bones

30:54

and great. It's about how quickly you can.

30:56

Bounce back after a setback. It no one

30:58

perfect. Not the most successful, beautiful, happiest people

31:00

in the world. None of them have ever

31:02

had one perfect day when they wake up

31:05

at five am. they have a Portland the

31:07

A Perfectly organic. They don't think we're negative

31:09

Thought: they don't procrastinate. No one is like

31:11

that. can we need to? So tell me

31:13

about this more and Athena gets you to

31:16

bounce back quickly in by reminding yourself of

31:18

who you want to be. Whether that's with

31:20

activations, whether that's with reminders on your phone

31:22

at the beginning of your journey, you need

31:25

to remind yourself continuously. Because that is

31:27

how you actually get to where he wannabe. What

31:30

inspiring of advice! And I have Gabby

31:33

Bernstein coming on the show on Tuesday

31:35

and I know that the So activation

31:37

and talking to the universe spring my

31:40

positive energy is part of what she

31:42

credits her success story on as well

31:44

and teachers and a lot of the

31:47

work that she does and speeches that

31:49

she gives. I want to hone in

31:51

on this. Just. For one

31:54

more and lens I have a twenty five year

31:56

old son and a twenty year old daughter in

31:58

the twenty five year old. And

32:00

many of his friends right now. Have

32:03

gone down the historical path

32:05

where you go to college

32:07

and you start working for

32:09

someone and they are very

32:11

concerned. About their

32:13

future. A I displacing

32:15

their jobs, etc. What

32:18

would you say to people who are

32:21

facing that and they could be Gens

32:23

ears like them or younger millennials I've

32:25

this is a big part of my

32:28

audience. If they're fearful about

32:30

these things, how would you approach it out?

32:32

What would you recommend them? And what are

32:34

they need to start doing differently? That.

32:36

Is such a great question and actually

32:38

one that I've never answered before. I can

32:41

completely resonate. By the way, it's hard. I

32:43

remember that moment where I didn't know

32:45

what I wanted to do with my life

32:47

and I really wanted to choose the

32:49

path for I would find success nap fresher.

32:52

We put on ourselves as a really hard

32:54

so the advice I would guess. His

32:56

first of all this fear I

32:58

believe comes out as feeling unworthy

33:01

of feeling that far one's ability

33:03

as if you truly love is

33:05

one thing this one type of

33:07

rural this one has. You know

33:09

industry jobs and you truly can

33:11

see addition to make this world

33:14

better and a certain way. I

33:16

think that. A I cannot

33:18

replace you A I can replace. Let's

33:20

say a bus driver or a garbage man or

33:22

even writer and like that catchy be these other

33:24

good stuff we going to influence our were all

33:27

of that I would. Actually, Urged

33:29

the listeners to see it in a

33:31

positive way. Then I see this as

33:33

a threat to see the rise of

33:35

a eyes actually of really incredible opportunity

33:38

to take advantage of the beautiful technology

33:40

being discovered right now for your own

33:42

potential career or business it is easier

33:44

than ever to start a business and

33:47

especially with all of the is a

33:49

I keep ability is like you don't

33:51

have to may be higher if you

33:53

want to be an entrepreneur a copywriter

33:56

because now you can use a I

33:58

and. Even. The Wing

34:00

and calendar south like a lot of a

34:02

I used for that. Now if you don't

34:05

want to be an entrepreneur that also Okay

34:07

if not for everyone it's a really different

34:09

type of life. I would just the for

34:11

a. Fight. Forward thinking

34:14

company that doesn't do things the old

34:16

way. The only thing I gonna do

34:18

it is it's going to hinder the

34:20

growth of companies that don't do things

34:22

and a modern way. it's going to

34:24

make everything easier. And that means that

34:26

companies that are evolving with the times

34:29

are going to be affected. So my

34:31

advice is to see see it in

34:33

a different light number one and position

34:35

it as an actual a huge opportunity

34:37

to help you create something that you

34:39

desire. Number One and number two. I

34:42

would actually look. Deeper into why you're

34:44

feeling self doubt regarding your capabilities. Are

34:46

you even clear about what you want?

34:48

is another one. Clarity is everything. A

34:50

lot of us think that works here,

34:53

but we actually haven't even sat down

34:55

and written. About. Our future

34:57

was and written about. what we could create

34:59

if we really reach are all of that

35:01

potential. I think just brainstorming putting pen to

35:04

paper so deeply transform it it. It was

35:06

a huge part of my journey especially the

35:08

beginning and I can tell you that we

35:11

have sided writing activation been superhuman that will

35:13

help few and by giving you specific journal

35:15

prompts to help you get clear and we

35:17

do have that. but I will also say

35:20

you don't even need superhuman to get clear.

35:22

All you need to do with get a

35:24

journal, Get a pen and just. Free right?

35:26

But your phone on Do not disturb, Turn it

35:29

off. Just. Right? even if you don't

35:31

know what to write And we live in such

35:33

a world of distraction right now. Had.

35:35

It so hard to focus for always

35:37

on our phones are distracted technology or

35:39

listening to the New York's There's always

35:42

something going on. There is something so

35:44

beautiful about turning off that noise and

35:46

just being with yourself and getting really

35:49

familiar. With. What

35:51

you actually desire? A deep down

35:53

and it gets those creative juices

35:55

flowing. so that's my biggest piece

35:57

of advice if you don't have

35:59

clarity. Right? Put an hour aside

36:01

and your day and put your phone off.

36:03

And just right. You'll learn so much about

36:05

yourself, you'll be amazed. I

36:08

appreciate you sharing that I always tell

36:10

him and others that ask me thing

36:13

I would do is what I'm doing

36:15

myself is I'm fully immersing myself with

36:17

a I because I won. I understand

36:19

who gives me a competitive advantage, How

36:22

what can I do differently? How can

36:24

I speed up processes? How do I

36:26

make my job more efficiently? And.

36:29

Since it's gonna be there for everyone

36:31

to use, the more adept you are.

36:34

At using it the more it's going

36:37

help you create. An edge

36:39

over other people. The other thing I always

36:41

try to. Tell. Him and others

36:43

is you have to be thanking five to

36:45

ten years ahead. And. Thinking about.

36:48

What is going to be different in the future? And

36:51

then start aiming for that with the

36:53

training that you can do schooling. Continual

36:55

learning because that's what's gonna keep

36:57

you ahead. And even when I

37:00

was growing up, there were things that we were

37:02

afraid of. But you can either. Allow

37:04

that fear to ground you or you

37:06

can take the steps. To.

37:09

Confront it and get ahead of it, which

37:11

will constantly put you in a position of

37:13

being ahead of the majority of people who

37:15

are out there. Incredible.

37:18

At such great advice and you're right

37:20

that times are evolving that imagine how

37:22

much you can see a with that

37:24

it's like we were in the.com boom

37:26

again almost like the whole the was

37:28

at twenty five years ago when the

37:30

internet really started to down. There are

37:32

so many opportunities Amazon always huge do

37:34

ball of each huge company came from

37:36

that were living in a time of

37:38

opportunity and it's time to see it

37:40

as that, not as the rest. Mimi.

37:43

I want to talk to you more about

37:45

Superhuman. Before we get into it, I want

37:48

to talk about the transition into it. So

37:50

if I have done my research cracked. You

37:52

Started off. With. The Mimi

37:54

Method subscription platform. And

37:56

then. You. Happen to

37:59

be sitting. And you're

38:01

parked car. At a pivotal

38:03

moment when you say decided to fully commit.

38:06

To. The Superhuman brand? Can you take us

38:08

back to that? Pinnacle.

38:10

Point. Wow. Jon, you've

38:12

done your research. I don't even remember

38:14

talking about that either, right? Yes, I

38:16

that was the moment. Ah, high level

38:19

talk about since I last Kind of

38:21

shared on my journey earlier in the

38:23

conversation. so I done the Tv so

38:25

I last when I can sell. This.

38:27

Essay myself with. Elaborations and

38:30

brandy all the had gained a little bit

38:32

of an Instagram audience from that south and

38:34

then I was starting my in many different

38:36

entrepreneurial the Journey it's from there I worked

38:38

in a Td other than that show and

38:41

I had a huge business from Ny. Almost

38:43

happen is that was a long story for

38:45

another time. but essentially at twenty one years

38:47

old I had created another tv show that

38:49

got swords one of the biggest his works

38:52

in the Us and last minute kinda messed

38:54

up in the contract and someone pulled out

38:56

and that failed. So I was definitely in

38:58

the in this era. Of hustling after that

39:00

show and really wanting to make something

39:03

very big of mean I thought that

39:05

was my first big business failure. And

39:07

then I got into. Some. Other

39:09

businesses I was involved in some online

39:11

education company is that an end up working

39:13

and I just kept shrine thing is

39:15

that and I kept failing and that's.

39:17

Completely. Normal see you will never

39:19

reach the class without feeling they invaded

39:22

it in and I kept going and

39:24

I started to really at that time

39:26

search sharing more about first laundered out

39:29

and and I started building a community

39:31

around that online and I decided that

39:33

I wanted to create a subscription platform

39:35

to share some work, out, some healthy

39:38

recipes, and then also to add extra

39:40

value to the inscription. I added these

39:42

activations kind of right at the bottom

39:45

of the subscription and had never shared

39:47

them publicly. Before I had never shared

39:49

them with the world because I was doing

39:51

them for years. As I mentioned, I was

39:53

listening to my own for years now that

39:55

I knew that I need them Really good.

39:57

And so I finally just on the subscription

39:59

platform they launched what meaning that they're just

40:01

to add these activations raided the boat him

40:03

to see if anyone like Bam and it

40:05

was never part of my plan to have.

40:08

An app all about iterations of Superhuman.

40:10

But then after a three month of

40:12

launching meaning That said, I realized that

40:14

I can see the numbers in the

40:17

back and and he activations were doing

40:19

better than any other content on that

40:21

platform. And. This platform was

40:23

a very low left sheep thing, like

40:25

I was using a third party platform

40:28

the house the videos on so I

40:30

didn't really have much money at the

40:32

time I was made in a gang

40:34

five maybe ten grand a month from

40:36

the subscription platform at the beginning and

40:38

Brandy over there was still fight and

40:40

consistent. A month I make two grand

40:42

and be struggling with groceries in the

40:44

next Monday. maybe make eight with very

40:46

inconsistent. I have my podcast back then

40:49

as well, so the subscription model really

40:51

entice me as a business person. Because

40:53

it's consistency which was like the thing

40:55

that I had pray of my whole

40:57

life. I had very inconsistent income until

40:59

then, so I launched. meaning I said

41:01

the activations we're kicking off and I.

41:04

Like. Really looked in the mirror Monday and

41:06

I thought. Okay, think I have

41:08

something here. I. Think I have product

41:10

market fit with this one thing oxidation

41:12

it's different to what else is out there

41:15

and the work out the recipes everyone has

41:17

that every Korea has that. I. Really

41:19

can start seeing a vision of

41:21

what this? Activation of could

41:24

become an So Yes, I was in

41:26

a car parks are talking to someone

41:28

on the phone and talking to a

41:30

woman that I was working with. I

41:32

hired her first, the marketing fast and

41:35

I really came to the conclusion on

41:37

that call that there could be. Something.

41:40

Quite big in this activation audio

41:42

phase two that never existed and

41:44

I played in reinvest all the

41:46

money that I'd made from any

41:48

method in the past three months.

41:50

And. Create a custom app and call it

41:53

something different. Take myself out of it. New

41:55

method is that me As an influencer? I

41:57

didn't really want to be an influencer anymore

41:59

at that point. I want to be

42:01

more behind the scenes. I had all the realize that.

42:04

I. Wanted to create a company that

42:06

could be a logo household name without

42:08

being attached to me and to be

42:10

about me. I wanted it to be

42:12

about transforming people. Do. So.

42:14

In that car parked car. all the biggest

42:16

revelations haven't had Parker as I feel like

42:19

I have always thought in a parked car

42:21

and like really thought about my life. He

42:23

breathes metal to happen before I moved to

42:25

London but anyway the I decided I want

42:27

to create a custom map and I hustled

42:30

a crazy trying to find developers I could

42:32

do it for a good deal for me

42:34

and then I really started building the concept.

42:36

I hired a marketing team to really create

42:38

this brand with me and I wanted to

42:41

brand to be a vibrant and I wanted

42:43

it's the energizing and inspiring. Because this

42:45

is not a meditation out as much

42:47

as meditation can be beneficial A hobby

42:49

de stress, this is a transformation. This

42:52

is for the type of person that

42:54

wants to literally big from the science

42:56

version of themselves and to transform from

42:59

being the old sell to the future

43:01

sell. So I needed everything about it

43:03

to embody this understanding that this is

43:05

for a transformation. So I said the

43:08

next six months working tirelessly on this

43:10

ran. I spent all of my savings.

43:12

I believed in the. So much for

43:15

after six months and mean he method

43:17

it started really kicking off with activation,

43:19

started going viral and I was probably

43:21

doing twenty k a month at that

43:24

point. I invested all of that back

43:26

into the business. And.

43:28

Then I realized that Superhuman I

43:31

only offered activations and over the

43:33

past almost three years since launching

43:35

Superhuman. It has been

43:38

the most growth that I've ever

43:40

experienced in my life. professionally, financially.

43:42

Personally, I now have a team

43:44

of pick over a dozen people

43:46

a late. We have tens and

43:48

tens of thousands of users. I

43:51

have a whole team of audio

43:53

engineering. The company is. Doing.

43:55

And insane We well as I mentioned

43:57

earlier that the company is worth a

43:59

huge amount now and I really do

44:01

believe that the success of the company

44:04

came to play. That being said, when

44:06

needed and so glad we had amazing

44:08

product market that from the beginning we

44:10

hadn't even started paying for marketing in

44:13

fall two months ago Part the first

44:15

two and a half years of the

44:17

business, we didn't pay him a sense

44:19

for marketing. It was all word of

44:22

mouth. And for a subscription

44:24

business having low churn which means

44:26

by a low rate of people

44:28

on subscribing an growing so much

44:30

to tens and tens of thousands

44:32

of users just from word of

44:34

mouth. Is. A pre unique

44:36

situation to be End of the more

44:38

I learn about the fast pace sided

44:40

feel. So proud that I was able

44:43

to create same thing that was new

44:45

and different because having that uniqueness was

44:47

so important. There's so many copies of

44:49

everything out in the world activations you

44:52

can only find them on Superhuman. we

44:54

actually own all the ip to it

44:56

and it's a new type of audio

44:58

that like a mix between at a

45:00

visualization, motivational cinematic muzak and kind of

45:03

like a motivational podcast. kind of mixed.

45:05

With. A. Visualization. It's a very

45:07

unique form of audio and it is

45:09

with their meticulously made with different frequencies

45:11

in the background, this beautiful cinematic music

45:13

that makes you feel like you're in

45:16

a movie and and and then he

45:18

died of his libations that just remind

45:20

you of you want to be It's

45:22

It's so unique and I think that.

45:25

The. Fact that I was able to create

45:27

as from and need I had in

45:29

myself. And I had the confidence

45:31

to share. So his initial version of the

45:33

world and there were like oh my gosh

45:35

what's this walking activation This is like changing

45:38

my life And it was. I've listened to

45:40

the customer from day one and about. I

45:42

believe that the success of the this as

45:44

as our customers talking about it to their

45:46

friends changing their own lives. With that we

45:49

have people messages everyday we have a dozen

45:51

at least messages a day. My

45:53

customer service team or social team

45:56

receive people saying oh my goodness

45:58

I have just changed. Good

46:00

how quickly they they committed to enact

46:02

nation a day. This crazy thing happens.

46:05

I started this isn't and this opportunity

46:07

came off or I met my husband.

46:09

Are all these crazy things happen when

46:12

you change your energetics? That point when

46:14

you embody the south image of your

46:16

future self. And from my research the

46:19

As activations are really. Good.

46:21

Way to to get to that point. When.

46:24

An incredible back around and

46:26

story and congratulations on the

46:28

success! I. Have

46:30

to ask what role

46:32

did resourcefulness play. When.

46:35

You were starting the Mimi method and

46:37

then. Getting into the launch

46:39

of superhuman newser, any specific instances,

46:42

Where. You had to think outside of the box

46:44

and that proved instrumental. Absolutely.

46:47

Oh my God. Resourcefulness is my middle name

46:49

and I've also bootstrap this company fully myself

46:51

by the way from day one like I

46:53

have been doing it fully with my own

46:55

savings. I didn't come from say they knew

46:57

that I really had the Belgian. it was

46:59

the it's a long game but one of

47:01

the best things I've done of we've had

47:03

a month for we had to spend a

47:05

lot whether it's on develop men or hiring

47:08

I'm once a year I've been doing these

47:10

retreats. I don't even know I'm gonna do

47:12

it this year to do just so much

47:14

work. That's when I needed the money. To

47:16

invest and like a new app for a

47:18

new technology to be found. A lot on

47:21

software like it's a tech company. I will

47:23

host retreats and the first retreats that I

47:25

hosted. I designed a whole website with my

47:27

team and I was gonna do like a

47:30

five day retreat in Arizona is going to

47:32

be a luxury retreat. We had this whole

47:34

trip planned. The tickets sold out within two

47:37

days which is crazy. I wasn't expecting it

47:39

does. I was only used to selling lower

47:41

ticket items like our app it's an app.

47:43

it's not a thousand dollars a month so

47:46

this retrieve. It with a higher ticket item

47:48

it was a ranged from. And. It

47:50

was seven thousand dollars a ticket to

47:52

twelve thousand dollars a ticket. It was

47:54

all an enclave and it was very

47:56

luxury and I remember my first retreat.

47:58

We wanted make a bit of money

48:00

to invest in a new app and

48:02

I launch this and that was the

48:04

first time I made. Six. Figure than

48:07

a day after launching the through tree and

48:09

that retreat brought in the quarter million dollars

48:11

for a five day were tree and it

48:13

was really crazy is so I knew the

48:16

power of doing things like that up on

48:18

a big scale. resourcefulness Because obviously I wanted

48:20

to build a new how familiar are a

48:22

quarter million dollar off and I needed the

48:25

money for it the in that sense I

48:27

think bag when it comes the beginning phases,

48:29

the resourcefulness as religious translated in tude taking

48:32

it one step at a time I wasn't

48:34

ever going to just launched superhuman. And

48:36

with the concept the activations my work. It's.

48:39

From. A business perspective you need to see if

48:41

you have product marketed are not. so many companies

48:43

are pre revenue and they raise like tens of

48:45

millions of dollars and that's so stupid to me.

48:48

I guys an investor I would never do that

48:50

because you don't even know the products gonna do

48:52

well start small even if it means being budget,

48:54

even if it means using. A

48:57

third party platform where you pay five

48:59

hundred dollars a month. And. To

49:01

have your videos posted on there and and

49:03

promote it to the people that you know

49:05

your audience or see if it actually works.

49:07

See people actually like it and if it

49:10

dies then you can reinvest more than you

49:12

build the confidence over time to reinvest in

49:14

what matters. I am resourceful that I also

49:16

had that feeling that I listen to a

49:18

lot. If I have a gut feeling something

49:20

will work my that is usually right and

49:23

I have learned to listen to my intuition

49:25

over the years. That was no right and

49:27

sometimes I so wellness such as but I

49:29

am very confident in my gut. Reaction

49:31

Now so for example by have an

49:33

opportunity with the business where I need

49:35

to pay a certain amount I knew

49:37

will listen to my that and and

49:39

truly it most the time it works

49:41

in my favor. Will.

49:44

Thank you for sure and let me in. One

49:46

of the things. In order to

49:48

this for this to have been successful

49:51

as it is the you had to

49:53

have a creative process. For. Visualization

49:55

and then manifesting your goals.

49:58

How do you yourself? This the

50:00

power of activation in energy. On.

50:02

A daily basis? What are some of the ways

50:04

that you use it? And. How

50:06

do you see daily benefits from it? Was.

50:10

On it's actually a lot more than ball

50:12

and we thank and this is coming from

50:14

the girl that read every self help up

50:16

that try doing it all that overwhelmed by

50:19

thousands Actually with all this work I have

50:21

simplified it down so much so that I

50:23

don't even really do a morning or t

50:25

anymore and I'm seeing results might left and

50:27

center from the working and doing and that

50:30

is simply and the site sound a little

50:32

bit rude to some listeners and listen I

50:34

am more pragmatic and science based than I

50:36

am spiritual. I'm kind of live in the

50:38

middle by like to. Say that atheists

50:41

will call the Placebo Effect christians

50:43

or call it thawed prayer. Scientists

50:45

were caught quantum physics and spiritual

50:47

s were caught. The law of

50:49

attraction is it's all the same

50:52

thing with different words. All I

50:54

know the simplicity of it all

50:56

is your energy creates your life,

50:58

your thoughts, your believe how you

51:01

hold yourself yourself in in your

51:03

identity. The. Energy that you and

51:05

body inside and around you is what

51:07

determine your future. So when I think

51:09

about what I want an even today

51:11

I need to activate any to activate

51:13

that future self and fighting any to

51:16

embody her any the act as if

51:18

I'm already her. I always have aspirations

51:20

to be a better and better version

51:22

of myself, but I also learned to

51:24

love the moment as all that was

51:26

something that I needed to learn over

51:28

the years. There is a very beautiful

51:31

balance and both. Were. Ambitious, creatures human,

51:33

we need to the want something to have a

51:35

go on to try to succeed. but we

51:37

also need to learn to enjoy the life that

51:39

we have in the moment as well. And

51:41

for on a tangent now the going back to

51:43

the plane Really the thing that you need to

51:46

do? The thing that I do everyday part

51:48

of my morning more. My daily routine is simply.

51:51

Embodying. The energy of who I

51:53

want to be in. whether that is an excavation

51:55

that helps me get their, whether that is journaling,

51:57

whether that is putting my phone a wage, The

52:00

morning and the thing, my coffee on my balcony

52:02

and just having a moment for myself. It

52:04

is just the understanding in the

52:07

education, the knowledge that my energy

52:09

creates my life so that in

52:11

everyday moments I can check in

52:13

with myself and think how my

52:16

feeling it is about feeling, not

52:18

about thinking a lot of people

52:20

make the mistake of visualizing. I

52:22

just. thinking. About what

52:25

they want. The trick is. That.

52:27

You need to feel what you want.

52:29

That is why so many people try

52:31

Quote Manifestation and it doesn't work because

52:34

they have a vision board with all

52:36

of the poster that of things from

52:38

the magazine that they want. The car

52:41

the death of that but I don't

52:43

even know what it feels like to

52:45

be wealthy. The trick is feeling and

52:47

that is why activation are so freaking

52:50

powerful. The mix of emotive music and

52:52

the powerful words change how you feel

52:54

and how you feel creates your life.

52:57

So. That's what I'll say to your answer. It's

52:59

not about having a handset morning routine. Coming.

53:02

From the girl that used to have

53:04

that is not about old, plunging and

53:06

fasting and below us fo great but

53:08

it's at the core about how you

53:11

feel you are energetic frequency and if

53:13

you can actually of knowledge the feelings

53:15

of your future. Before getting their podcast

53:17

I was listening to to prepare for

53:19

this was. My. Friend to

53:21

recall not going on or show as

53:24

well. Loved the work she does around

53:26

healthy boundaries. And.

53:28

So it leads me to this question.

53:30

Building relationships? Is. So crucial

53:32

for. Our personal lives

53:34

are professional lives. I'm sure

53:37

it's when key to or success as

53:39

well. What advice do you have her

53:41

listeners? For. Creating healthy boundaries.

53:44

And. Fostering positive dynamics with

53:46

others. Such.

53:48

A great passion. I loved Harrys

53:50

work. Boundaries. Are hit

53:52

something that I've actually needed to work on

53:54

over the past few years. especially. I've always

53:57

been the type of person that just says

53:59

yes to everything. Wants to help and

54:01

every area. but I think that the more

54:03

that I really respected myself to creepy is

54:05

they than three isn't? It comes to her

54:08

when it comes to. My

54:10

employees when it comes to my friends. So the

54:12

better my life has become. So my advice. Well,

54:15

I guess I can just share what

54:17

I've learnt myself. It's like the stronger

54:19

relationship with yourself, with your soul, with

54:21

you and you, the better you get

54:23

at setting boundaries because you feel connected

54:25

with yourself. You respect yourself. More.

54:28

Than anything else. not the most

54:30

important thing. If for

54:32

example, He. Won't say including

54:34

you need anything, you have some old friends and

54:37

keep wanting to drag you out and a half.

54:39

The habit of drinking a lot and partying and

54:41

he painted her does over that it is say

54:43

that kind of in the at. At one point

54:45

in my personal development journey I just didn't want

54:47

to go out and drink anymore. I didn't make

54:49

me feel that I felt like I took. Three.

54:52

Steps backwards and ever I would do

54:54

it. So I had a third, creating

54:56

new boundaries between me and some people

54:58

in my life and relationship. And

55:00

I had to try to do it in

55:02

a way where it wouldn't hurt the other

55:04

person doesn't have very loving way. I love

55:07

you and I want to see you but

55:09

unfortunately this is not the lifestyle I want

55:11

Nemours the let's try to do something else

55:14

and sad and it it would actually distance

55:16

me from the people that didn't wanna do

55:18

things that were aligned with them they wouldn't

55:20

necessarily this wanna go for coffee instead of

55:23

going out and those are party friends. Not

55:25

okay though with friendships I had to pay

55:27

boundaries and. I. Am lucky enough that

55:29

the people closest to me my life now like

55:32

my fiance, my sister, my best friend, my mom,

55:34

the people that are really closest to me and

55:36

my life my parents are. I just love my

55:38

family so much. I think the more than I'd

55:40

done it's work, the more that I just. Wish

55:43

I could. Be. With people that

55:45

make me feel like. This is

55:47

what matters the my life, the relationship wise.

55:49

I I don't feel like I have any

55:51

thing that I need to create boundaries for.

55:53

I feel very blessed but it's really the

55:55

place right after Great. Most boundaries as old

55:57

friends and amy don't have the same. Current

56:00

because of me which I don't really have

56:02

many as anymore and then employees and people

56:04

that I mean giving might hang to strangers.

56:06

I often am quite introverted. I now have

56:08

really realize that to get to the next

56:10

level I need to not say yes to

56:12

as many thing. So I started working on

56:14

that as well. But I'll tell you something,

56:16

I'm not as good at boundaries that A

56:19

has scary. And working on

56:21

it. I don't think

56:23

many of us are. Can. See. Why?

56:25

She is the boundary expert of me.

56:28

I thought we would end today by

56:30

having you talk to the audience about

56:32

your great podcast which I can't wait

56:34

to be on. Same.

56:37

Kids and I'm so excited to have you on! By

56:39

the way, I have high that. This

56:41

podcast going for. Honestly,

56:43

almost seven years now I've been like one

56:45

of the Ot Pie cancers and I just

56:47

kept quite consistent with it. It was a

56:49

kind of i went in and out of

56:51

it being my main focus and now I

56:53

am a little bit less consistent. I used

56:55

to do two times a week, but now

56:57

I'm doing at least one time a week

56:59

just because my business is taken up a

57:01

lot of my time. The that means that

57:03

the episodes that I do release are quite

57:05

powerful. Maintaining quality is something that has always

57:07

been so important to me and my brand

57:09

and anything that I put out into the

57:11

world. And the podcast has been. One of the

57:13

best. Pieces. And growth for

57:16

me because a as got into

57:18

need the most incredible people. I

57:20

actually initially started my podcast almost

57:22

seven years ago. So. That I

57:24

couldn't nice these mentor is that either. So

57:26

obsessed with when I started my journey I

57:28

wanted to have an excuse to have a

57:30

conversation with them. so I started the podcast

57:33

just like more inspired and it was a

57:35

really great thing as you can go back

57:37

for first few episodes I sounds completely different

57:39

and a completely different human just like oh

57:41

my you tube my first videos I was

57:43

a completely different human and is is the

57:45

beginning of my journey and you could just

57:47

be the evolution over the years now i

57:50

think ramos at five hundred episodes or something

57:52

and it's pretty incredible. So the podcast. Is

57:54

all about for a small about men and

57:56

interviews at them. Credible people that help that

57:58

can help you try. Form your life

58:00

and improve your life and there are some

58:03

business the episodes and there are a lotta

58:05

audio. They also take from a you tube

58:07

and as just all value and I'm so

58:09

58:12
