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
excited John to have you on in a
58:12
few weeks. I'll be an amazing conversation. Mamie.
