22
00:02:49.390 --> 00:02:58.079
Deborah Tyson: So, Rachel, I'd love to just hand over to you and ask you a little bit more to explain. What is it that you do.
23
00:02:58.780 --> 00:03:05.990
Rachel Julie Adams: Oh, well, thanks for that gorgeous introduction. I'm gonna get that on. Repeat whenever I need an energy boost.
24
00:03:07.770 --> 00:03:08.580
Deborah Tyson: Wonderful.
25
00:03:08.580 --> 00:03:23.379
Rachel Julie Adams: And yeah, so thank you so much. So what I do is I really my mission is to help align my clients. Anyone I come across. It comes into one of my programs
26
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:44.260
Rachel Julie Adams: to connect with who they truly are here to be, to understand their own uniqueness, their own greatness and their own unique operating system. So they can really optimize who they're here to be to recognize what pulls them off track. You know those proverbial limiting beliefs. We all have them.
27
00:03:44.650 --> 00:03:56.570
Rachel Julie Adams: A long time ago I took a hypnotherapy course because I thought that was the magic wand that if you learned all these techniques. You could wave that magic wand and poof! They're gone.
28
00:03:56.890 --> 00:03:58.169
Rachel Julie Adams: Not so.
29
00:03:58.870 --> 00:04:00.070
Rachel Julie Adams: not not like
30
00:04:01.190 --> 00:04:04.870
Rachel Julie Adams: act on. That would have been really great. But
31
00:04:04.950 --> 00:04:20.299
Rachel Julie Adams: but it's not as difficult as you think. We all have them. So part of that is accepting that we all have these beliefs that we made up in early childhood to make sense of the world. Because when we're little kids, things happen, we
32
00:04:20.380 --> 00:04:43.760
Rachel Julie Adams: really don't understand. And we just recognize we have some that something happens that makes us feel bad that makes us feel sad or afraid or ashamed all these different different things. And when we're really young our brain is so it's kind of in a bit of a hypnotic state. And we take in so much. We have to to learn to
33
00:04:43.760 --> 00:05:00.619
Rachel Julie Adams: be in the world. And so these many traumas, or maybe big traumas, have a really deep impact on our brains on our minds, and we create stories around them, and most of them live in our unconscious mind.
34
00:05:00.870 --> 00:05:07.650
Rachel Julie Adams: but they crop up, and we'll find we want to do something. But something's holding us back, or we never can quite
35
00:05:07.670 --> 00:05:19.679
Rachel Julie Adams: do that thing we know in our heart we would love, but we just can't get there. So that's why I love to work with and helping people really create.
36
00:05:19.780 --> 00:05:22.700
Rachel Julie Adams: 1st of all, establish, establish
37
00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:25.269
Rachel Julie Adams: what they know they love.
38
00:05:25.700 --> 00:05:51.059
Rachel Julie Adams: and give themselves permission to follow that to follow their dreams because oftentimes, actually, that brings me. I have a quote right on my desk. That is the foundation of what I do. You know the Australian Hospice, nurse, Bronny Ware, who wrote the book the regrets of the dying. I think it was the 5 regrets of the dying, but the number one regret. She
39
00:05:51.517 --> 00:05:58.869
Rachel Julie Adams: assisted a lot of people in their last weeks of life, and got to have really deep conversations with them.
40
00:05:59.250 --> 00:06:13.370
Rachel Julie Adams: The number one regret of people at that stage of life is, I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
41
00:06:13.790 --> 00:06:18.639
Deborah Tyson: Wow! That's sad, isn't it, that so many people would feel like that when we
42
00:06:19.080 --> 00:06:22.830
Deborah Tyson: have this life ahead of us? Yeah, yeah.
43
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:28.479
Rachel Julie Adams: Have this beautiful gift of life, and when you know we see so many people who.
44
00:06:28.935 --> 00:06:51.020
Rachel Julie Adams: you know, live a shorter life than they would like. And so I mean as we get to, I mean, I'm in my mid sixties now, so I'm blessed instead of thinking, you know, another year. Another notch. It's just such a blessing to be here and to get to this age and beyond, because a lot of people, don't you know? I?
45
00:06:51.250 --> 00:06:57.359
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, I witnessed my brother-in-law passing away not that long ago, 2 years ago, at the age I'm at now.
46
00:06:57.490 --> 00:06:58.230
Rachel Julie Adams: And
47
00:06:58.990 --> 00:07:13.370
Rachel Julie Adams: yeah, he wasn't ready. He'd done a lot. But no, he didn't want to leave. So every every day, every year is a blessing, and it really is our job to create what we would love with this gift of life.
48
00:07:13.770 --> 00:07:21.390
Deborah Tyson: I love that because what you think creates your reality. And if you're going into life thinking like that, that's what does come back to you, and
49
00:07:21.430 --> 00:07:29.609
Deborah Tyson: I know that we're not minimising that people have adversity and challenges. I know that you and I both had challenges in our own life. So we're not
50
00:07:30.146 --> 00:07:50.260
Deborah Tyson: saying that. But we're saying with that adversity, it does depend on how you get through that as well. And the way you look at it, and your attitude so yes, beautiful, inspiring words. And maybe you've answered this next question a little bit already, because I was going to ask what is the biggest problem that people
51
00:07:50.370 --> 00:07:57.870
Deborah Tyson: come to you. What is just as a general overall pattern. What is the biggest problem that people face? Do you think.
52
00:07:58.790 --> 00:08:05.563
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, I think it is just not knowing what what their purpose is. I've always felt that was
53
00:08:06.220 --> 00:08:16.589
Rachel Julie Adams: such a big question, such an important question. And you see, certain people who just absolutely know what they're here for, you know they want to sing, or
54
00:08:16.630 --> 00:08:27.649
Rachel Julie Adams: a friend of my sister's just always knew she wanted to work with babies. And whatever it is, just knowing that I've always thought, Wow! That's such a gift to know that.
55
00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:31.810
Rachel Julie Adams: And some people know, and they have one thing throughout life.
56
00:08:31.840 --> 00:08:50.690
Rachel Julie Adams: But for most of us it's many things, and it changes throughout life. So most people I work with are looking for that clarity. What is what is my next expression? What is going to be my highest expression of who I'm here to be in this next chapter of life.
57
00:08:50.700 --> 00:08:52.610
Rachel Julie Adams: So that's what we work with.
58
00:08:52.610 --> 00:09:10.839
Deborah Tyson: Just love that. So you're helping them work through any confusion and really come into alignment with who they really are. And then on that path, because when you're aligned with your purpose, I believe this, too. You are naturally happy because you're expressing what you're here to do in the world, you're being of service.
59
00:09:11.268 --> 00:09:36.329
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, it's just it raises your energy. You feel good. So it's actually being able to know what that is. And just another point is that I agree. I've done a lot of things in my life which seemingly seem disparate to what I'm doing now, which I believe is my true purpose, but in hindsight I see that all those other things I did. I was a designer. I've been a healer, kinesiologist.
60
00:09:36.340 --> 00:09:48.060
Deborah Tyson: All of those things. I've worked in the food industry really help the work that I do now. So all those different life experiences really can accumulate in what you're here to do.
61
00:09:48.980 --> 00:09:50.520
Rachel Julie Adams: Absolutely. Yeah.
62
00:09:50.520 --> 00:09:54.410
Deborah Tyson: Ever wasted on the journey to finding out what you meant to.
63
00:09:54.410 --> 00:09:58.370
Rachel Julie Adams: No, isn't that interesting you? You think you're going in one direction.
64
00:09:59.210 --> 00:10:11.650
Rachel Julie Adams: But all of that information is the wisdom that moves you forward and helps you help other people, too. I mean all that wisdom you had from all those different things you've done. Now you're using it all with
65
00:10:11.690 --> 00:10:16.500
Rachel Julie Adams: this fabulous platform you're creating, or have created with Blisspot.
66
00:10:16.500 --> 00:10:23.650
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, that that's it. And I think it's almost like life has a greater purpose for you, and you can't even see it at the time. So you
67
00:10:23.670 --> 00:10:29.430
Deborah Tyson: like me, I was doing design, and I was enjoying that. But now design helps me every single day. So
68
00:10:29.580 --> 00:10:37.329
Deborah Tyson: I believe yes, there's sort of a greater purpose, and sometimes we can't see it at the time. But things can come together. Yeah.
69
00:10:37.330 --> 00:10:52.039
Rachel Julie Adams: Absolutely. I have a little story about that, just, you know, a little realization, because in August I got Covid and I was sick on my birthday. So it's kind of not that much fun and and then
70
00:10:52.170 --> 00:10:58.899
Rachel Julie Adams: in September my mum moved here at 91, my mum moved here from England.
71
00:10:58.910 --> 00:11:19.335
Rachel Julie Adams: Southern California, few days later, came down with Covid. But because I just recently had it. I was able, and she had to be hospitalized. She's great now, so but she was in hospital for a few days and quite sick. But because I just had it, I was okay to be there every day. I would have been there, probably, anyway. But
72
00:11:19.680 --> 00:11:23.170
Rachel Julie Adams: But and then I was sitting there one day, and I thought, oh.
73
00:11:23.550 --> 00:11:30.433
Rachel Julie Adams: that was actually a blessing that I'd had it in August. Would it be better if it wasn't on my birthday? But that's okay.
74
00:11:32.020 --> 00:11:42.150
Rachel Julie Adams: blessing. I had it. So I wasn't that sick, and I didn't, you know, share it with anyone? And there I could be with my mom every day in the hospital. So.
75
00:11:42.150 --> 00:11:58.679
Deborah Tyson: So important. Yeah, absolutely. And one of my favorite expressions is that life can bring us gifts in strange wrapping paper. So it's not what we thought or what we would have asked for. But as we move through it, you know, we can see hindsight. What.
76
00:11:58.930 --> 00:12:16.889
Rachel Julie Adams: Also speaking of challenges, we're all going to get them. That's just part of life. We get challenges. But I did just hear recently about how getting through a challenge actually expands or expands part of your brain
77
00:12:16.910 --> 00:12:24.080
Rachel Julie Adams: and helps reduce shrinkage in this particular part of your brain. So it makes you brainier.
78
00:12:27.680 --> 00:12:28.899
Deborah Tyson: I love it.
79
00:12:28.900 --> 00:12:29.339
Rachel Julie Adams: Linda.
80
00:12:31.060 --> 00:12:38.639
Deborah Tyson: I love that. Well, you know, the world is facing a lot of challenges at the moment. Yeah, and some extremely serious. So
81
00:12:38.680 --> 00:12:46.520
Deborah Tyson: hopefully. Yes, in in the big picture we will all evolve and come through it in the best way possible. But
82
00:12:46.800 --> 00:12:55.060
Deborah Tyson: that brings me to my next question, which is asking you, is it even possible to be energetic.
83
00:12:55.170 --> 00:12:57.409
Deborah Tyson: you know, have high, energetic.
84
00:12:57.480 --> 00:13:00.689
Deborah Tyson: high energy levels and feel happy?
85
00:13:01.084 --> 00:13:15.559
Deborah Tyson: In this modern world today, because there are so many stresses that people are facing. I'm sure I'm pretty sure it's global. But definitely here in Australia a lot of people are under intense financial pressure. The cost of living has risen
86
00:13:15.560 --> 00:13:31.409
Deborah Tyson: a lot. Interest rates. A lot of people are really struggling financially, but also mentally, after Covid. The lockdowns are youth who were locked up through their school years, you know, very challenging times for many, and I think you and I have spoken about this before, but
87
00:13:31.670 --> 00:13:39.849
Deborah Tyson: last year there was a worldwide shortage of Zoloft which is the antidepressant drug. So many people have been prescribed it.
88
00:13:39.890 --> 00:14:00.369
Deborah Tyson: and additionally, with the research that we've done at Blissbot the most stressed segments of society which I was really surprised about, because I thought that, you know, when you go out into the world. Things can be stressful as you're learning and getting new skills about all areas of your life. But the people who are actually most stressed are in their midlife because they have
89
00:14:00.370 --> 00:14:11.850
Deborah Tyson: so many demands put on them. Most people work. They've got a career, a relationship of some kind. Possibly children at that age, aging parents
90
00:14:11.850 --> 00:14:25.129
Deborah Tyson: and responsibilities abilities, you know, for social connections, those kinds of things. And they're the most stressed segments of society, just trying to hold it all together and get through the day. So do you think it is actually
91
00:14:25.160 --> 00:14:30.020
Deborah Tyson: even possible for people to have high energy in the world that we actually live in.
92
00:14:31.170 --> 00:14:42.320
Rachel Julie Adams: I absolutely do. I mean, obviously, a lot of people are very challenged where I am right now, on the other side of the country. They've just had this horrendous hurricane that decimated
93
00:14:42.450 --> 00:14:58.520
Rachel Julie Adams: areas. And I was actually thinking about that this morning, and I run a weekly group with all my clients and students. And so we had a discussion about that that we can send love to those people who are suffering you on the vibrational level.
94
00:14:58.630 --> 00:15:04.771
Rachel Julie Adams: and you can meditate and just fill yourself with that vibration of love. And
95
00:15:05.910 --> 00:15:21.050
Rachel Julie Adams: Well, an easy way to do that is, just think of a time when you just felt that profound sense of love like for me. I'll go back to the day my son was born. Actually, the next day. 1st day was a bit busy the next day.
96
00:15:21.050 --> 00:15:37.879
Rachel Julie Adams: just being alone in the hospital with him, and having a moment. I just felt this overwhelming wave of love incredible! So all of us have something, whether it's a pet or being in nature, something that you can remember.
97
00:15:38.140 --> 00:15:41.909
Rachel Julie Adams: that gives you that sense of pure love, and just
98
00:15:42.650 --> 00:16:06.449
Rachel Julie Adams: just be in that energy for a while and fill yourself up with it and just send it like you're just sending music or vibration to around the world. I have a lot of processes I use for that, but just at the simplest level, fill yourself with love and send it, even though you can't heal people who are sick. Well, maybe you can. But
99
00:16:06.730 --> 00:16:14.140
Rachel Julie Adams: another story and you know, help people who've lost their homes and all of that. You can send money. But
100
00:16:14.230 --> 00:16:20.519
Rachel Julie Adams: just sending that vibration of love is something because we're all energy. Everything
101
00:16:20.650 --> 00:16:30.700
Rachel Julie Adams: is energy in the whole universe. There's the teeniest tiniest particles of matter that make up what we think of as solid structures.
102
00:16:30.910 --> 00:16:41.429
Rachel Julie Adams: But most of it 99 point lots of nines is energy. So when we elevate our energy to love. We're actually helping uplift
103
00:16:41.890 --> 00:16:48.409
Rachel Julie Adams: others who who are around us, others. We can send it to it. I mean, it's something we can do.
104
00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:53.580
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah. And it's important to keep yourself
105
00:16:53.810 --> 00:16:59.549
Rachel Julie Adams: at that higher vibration, too, because you're not going to be much help to anyone in your world.
106
00:16:59.630 --> 00:17:12.839
Rachel Julie Adams: If you allow yourself to really take on all the worries of the world. And obviously, if you've got things in your own life that you need to deal with, preserving your energy as best
107
00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:25.169
Rachel Julie Adams: as you can, and be an acknowledging that you're having challenges is important, but we can't take off the weight of the whole world. You know we can care and do all sorts of things, but
108
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:29.820
Rachel Julie Adams: we still have to care for ourselves as well.
109
00:17:30.040 --> 00:17:41.749
Deborah Tyson: I love that because it's like doing what we can do. You know, some things we can are beyond our control and just acknowledging that, and then doing what we can do to make a
110
00:17:41.820 --> 00:18:02.609
Deborah Tyson: positive change. And I love your philosophy, Rachel. It's so beautiful, because I do believe that love is the most powerful force on the planet, and we're going through a big shift at the moment from fear to love. And what we can do every day is, we can't make obviously big political decisions that beyond our control.
111
00:18:02.610 --> 00:18:13.690
Deborah Tyson: But we can be loving, and we can be kind, and we can believe in the power of love and how strong it is. And I think together we're strong as well. You know, when we
112
00:18:14.260 --> 00:18:19.419
Deborah Tyson: in a combined way send that love out into the planet which you're doing through your groups.
113
00:18:19.460 --> 00:18:22.810
Deborah Tyson: I do through my work, and just coming together
114
00:18:22.870 --> 00:18:26.800
Deborah Tyson: in a loving way, is very powerful. So yeah, I love that.
115
00:18:26.800 --> 00:18:28.170
Rachel Julie Adams: Absolutely. Yeah.
116
00:18:28.170 --> 00:18:34.260
Deborah Tyson: And I was just gonna ask you, where do people generally get stuck on their journey? You know.
117
00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:41.580
Rachel Julie Adams: Usually, in my experience, it's second guessing themselves
118
00:18:41.600 --> 00:18:48.269
Rachel Julie Adams: and and being kind of wallowing in, you know
119
00:18:48.420 --> 00:19:12.790
Rachel Julie Adams: some regret or not thinking that they actually can do the things they want to do. And that's where those limiting beliefs come in again, thinking I don't have the skills, or I don't have the ability, or I don't have anything unique enough. Every single one of us is absolutely unique, and we all have something.
120
00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:20.709
Rachel Julie Adams: but most of us will downplay on our natural skills. What comes easy to us doesn't seem as magnificent
121
00:19:20.730 --> 00:19:33.429
Rachel Julie Adams: to us because it's easy for us, or natural as it is to someone else. So for the most part, I found it's second guessing yourself out of taking a big leap.
122
00:19:33.470 --> 00:19:52.720
Rachel Julie Adams: not committing to doing something, even though you know you'd love it. It is a challenge. We worry. What other people think of us. That's going back to that bronny where quote worrying what our parents would think, or our children, or our friends and neighbors. So
123
00:19:52.770 --> 00:19:55.739
Rachel Julie Adams: yeah, it's not their life. It's our life.
124
00:19:57.370 --> 00:20:01.739
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, I I think that's really that's really true. And
125
00:20:02.127 --> 00:20:14.992
Deborah Tyson: not not having that self belief or seeing how beautiful that we really are, and I often when I'm working with my clients, I say, if you've got a voice in your head that's down on you,
126
00:20:15.430 --> 00:20:33.000
Deborah Tyson: criticizing you, telling you that you're wrong or you're not good enough. Usually that is your ego. It's a voice that's been internalized often from when you're very young, and then that becomes the predominant voice in your head, saying, Oh, yeah, that amazing thing is not for you, or it's too good to be true.
127
00:20:33.080 --> 00:20:53.070
Deborah Tyson: Oh, you don't deserve that amount of happiness. But when you have that wise, kind voice in your head, as often, you know, we speak to our own child in or our our friends when that's in our head, that's our that's our real self. When we're speaking to ourselves with compassion and kind kindness and wisdom, we know that's real. So.
128
00:20:53.070 --> 00:20:54.340
Rachel Julie Adams: 100%.
129
00:20:55.360 --> 00:21:05.030
Rachel Julie Adams: I have a philosophy. I go by, and all my programs kind of come under this umbrella that there's 4 pillars of fulfillment
130
00:21:05.210 --> 00:21:15.219
Rachel Julie Adams: and pillar. One is one thing. Know yourself, know who you are, know what you love. Know your unique operating system
131
00:21:15.410 --> 00:21:31.000
Rachel Julie Adams: and pillar 2 is 2 things, 2 universal laws that really affect everything, the law of vibration which we just talked a little bit about, and the law of polarity, which is exactly what you talked about there, where you've got your ego and you've got your soul.
132
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:44.549
Rachel Julie Adams: everything else. Everything is on this plane of polarity between these 2 ego trying to keep you safe, keep you from going outside your comfort zone and doing something
133
00:21:44.990 --> 00:21:47.320
Rachel Julie Adams: that it considers scary.
134
00:21:47.370 --> 00:21:52.099
Rachel Julie Adams: and then your soul that wants to just express its greatness into the world.
135
00:21:52.100 --> 00:21:59.419
Deborah Tyson: It's an expansive energy that one, isn't it, seeing opportunities where your ego is trying to keep you small and safe and.
136
00:21:59.760 --> 00:22:08.940
Rachel Julie Adams: Do that. It's risky or whatever you know. Yeah. And then we have the 3rd pillar is 3 levels of mind. So we've got the
137
00:22:08.980 --> 00:22:35.439
Rachel Julie Adams: conscious mind that we're the things we're aware of that we're doing, the unconscious mind, which is where those limiting beliefs live, and they affect us, even though we're not always aware of it, and we just don't know what's holding us back. It's those beliefs, and that's what I love to work with people on uncovering them so that you recognize when they show up, and then you can consciously choose to focus on what you would love to do.
138
00:22:35.510 --> 00:22:48.570
Rachel Julie Adams: And then we've got the super conscious level of mind, which is where our intuition connects with our higher self and that wisdom. That is that that beautiful small voice, you just talked about.
139
00:22:50.280 --> 00:22:51.000
Rachel Julie Adams: yeah.
140
00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:51.780
Deborah Tyson: I love that.
141
00:22:52.379 --> 00:22:53.519
Rachel Julie Adams: Oh, sorry.
142
00:22:53.650 --> 00:23:00.059
Rachel Julie Adams: No, that's okay. I was just gonna complete it. The 4th pillar is 4 things to do every day.
143
00:23:00.390 --> 00:23:12.640
Rachel Julie Adams: Focus on what you're choosing to do or just remind yourself what your choices are. Be aware of where you're at now, and what ego beliefs might be coming in
144
00:23:12.860 --> 00:23:17.340
Rachel Julie Adams: focus again on what you're deciding to do and take action.
145
00:23:18.030 --> 00:23:47.189
Deborah Tyson: Right. I love that. It's so practical. And I was just going to say on the 3rd pillar, that would that be to do with self sabotage, too, when people you know it's just under the surface, and a belief comes up. But you don't know why you're thinking, why am I in this same old situation again, despite my best efforts with what you're suggesting, with that 3rd pillar and the 4th pillar, I guess, could help you move past that because I know a lot of people really struggle with self sabotage.
146
00:23:47.460 --> 00:24:05.619
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, that's a really good question. And it usually is. Either it's those limiting beliefs holding you back. And you're not aware of them, or you're doing something you've chosen something that you don't really want to do, or that isn't the right path for you right now. So it's 1 or the other
147
00:24:05.690 --> 00:24:13.269
Rachel Julie Adams: and and that's why I love helping people work through. Yeah. Cause if it's something that you think you should do.
148
00:24:13.530 --> 00:24:16.010
Rachel Julie Adams: But it isn't heart aligned.
149
00:24:16.120 --> 00:24:24.190
Rachel Julie Adams: Then you will keep coming up against roadblocks, because it's not your path. It's not your true path, and you might be really successful.
150
00:24:24.200 --> 00:24:35.429
Rachel Julie Adams: like I was pretty successful in, you know, the businesses I built, and I loved the creative aspect of them. But then, when it was doing the same thing over and over again
151
00:24:35.580 --> 00:24:43.640
Rachel Julie Adams: it. It didn't fill me with love anymore. I loved the products I created, but I just knew I couldn't keep doing it.
152
00:24:43.830 --> 00:24:47.970
Rachel Julie Adams: So it's recognising what is really true for you.
153
00:24:48.610 --> 00:25:09.679
Deborah Tyson: I love that, and I think to sometimes the should voice, you know, when we think oh, we should do that. But it's not filling us with love, as you say, or joy. It's often because of our conditioning around people pleasing. Would you say that? You know we think what other others think for us is more right than what we actually think is right for us ourselves.
154
00:25:10.370 --> 00:25:24.300
Rachel Julie Adams: Absolutely. It's not trusting yourself, not trusting your inner voice, because oftentimes we've been conditioned to not believe that to not believe that because parents tell us, or society tells us
155
00:25:24.300 --> 00:25:43.569
Rachel Julie Adams: it's better to go get the college degree and be an accountant, or whatever your family might think is a really good, solid career. But you want to go off and travel the world, and you know, maybe be a tour guide. One of the things I did once.
156
00:25:43.850 --> 00:25:54.800
Rachel Julie Adams: So. Yeah, there's a lot of pressure, and that should word is a key. And anytime you're thinking I should. It's a bit of a red flag. So.
157
00:25:54.800 --> 00:26:05.890
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, that's a good thing, because it helps you pick up on yourself. Am I really doing this for me, or because I should do it every single time, without a doubt, when I've done something because I should do it, I
158
00:26:06.050 --> 00:26:16.040
Deborah Tyson: every single time it's not worked out well for anybody, because it's not the right energy around it. If you go and do it, it just I don't know. But if you're there from
159
00:26:16.779 --> 00:26:26.669
Deborah Tyson: it's authentic, and that you really want to be there, and it's from from love. It's usually good for the other person as well. So usually you're not doing other
160
00:26:26.680 --> 00:26:32.069
Deborah Tyson: people a favor if you're not truly invested in it, that all that's just what I found. Yeah.
161
00:26:32.070 --> 00:26:42.769
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, no, it's true, yes, absolutely. And that is one of the blessings of getting to this midlife stage that we have that experience to look back on and recognize when.
162
00:26:42.770 --> 00:26:59.510
Deborah Tyson: Right. It's all a learning, isn't it? And you can't be hard on yourself, because we're just doing the best that we can with the skills that we have every day. So I love that. Well, that brings me to my next question. Perfect segue is, do you believe it's possible to actively age? You know.
163
00:27:00.780 --> 00:27:01.420
Rachel Julie Adams: Yes.
164
00:27:03.940 --> 00:27:11.960
Rachel Julie Adams: to live that absolutely well. To actively age, you mean, stay active as you age.
165
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:24.920
Deborah Tyson: Well, when we have a philosophy in Kinesiology which I love the Kinesiology, that I practice not all of it, but some of it's based on the Dao, that ancient wisdom, Chinese wisdom beautiful
166
00:27:25.220 --> 00:27:51.859
Deborah Tyson: and it has a philosophy that when we come into the world we're connected. And then, as we go. You know we go through life for a child. Often we'll have experiences that take us to a place of disconnection where we're disconnected from our soul and aligned to what we really want to do. Not always. This is a general thing, and then we have a period of reconnection as an adult. That's when we learn from all our experiences.
167
00:27:51.860 --> 00:28:19.430
Deborah Tyson: and we sort of shedding those layers, those beliefs, those things that don't belong to us or don't service, and getting more out of that ego and more into our real, true, authentic self, that as we do that we feel better, we feel lighter energies, expands. And so then it's totally possible to grow younger as we grow older. And I love that philosophy so that, you know. So I guess it's more that that type of thing.
168
00:28:20.610 --> 00:28:30.129
Rachel Julie Adams: I believe it. And yeah, I I definitely believe it because I feel as energetic as ever, and.
169
00:28:30.130 --> 00:28:31.150
Deborah Tyson: Think you're living proof.
170
00:28:31.150 --> 00:28:33.719
Rachel Julie Adams: He feels my age.
171
00:28:34.117 --> 00:28:36.272
Rachel Julie Adams: my goodness, zoom! Make me look better
172
00:28:37.690 --> 00:28:40.153
Rachel Julie Adams: than a facelift. Not that I've had one of those.
173
00:28:41.910 --> 00:28:49.739
Deborah Tyson: Amazing, Rachel, and I think certainly well, in all my interactions I've had with you. Certainly. To me
174
00:28:49.950 --> 00:29:00.620
Deborah Tyson: demonstrate practically that it is possible that as we grow older we we can feel younger. We can feel wiser, because as we tap more into our wisdom.
175
00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:08.159
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, we see the beauty in aging that it's actually beautiful to grow old and learn more and know more from our experiences and
176
00:29:08.200 --> 00:29:13.259
Deborah Tyson: support young people on their beautiful journeys. And just be there. So
177
00:29:13.310 --> 00:29:14.360
Deborah Tyson: yeah.
178
00:29:15.060 --> 00:29:25.930
Rachel Julie Adams: And the way you described it. It sounds very much like the hero's journey as well like in the classic Joseph Campbell, Hero's journey.
179
00:29:26.780 --> 00:29:45.889
Rachel Julie Adams: The king comes in, not knowing that a king lives the life of a peasant goes through, challenges, meets a mentor, tames their dragons, and then comes back to share the wisdom, you know, to share the gold, whatever that is. So yeah.
180
00:29:46.030 --> 00:29:50.040
Rachel Julie Adams: that's and that hero's journey is really
181
00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:58.770
Rachel Julie Adams: a thread that flows through all sorts of wisdom, teachings as well as like Star Wars. Things like that.
182
00:29:58.770 --> 00:30:23.310
Deborah Tyson: Yes, and Lord of the rings. Absolutely all our the classic movies, Harry Potter, all the ones that we know and love. It's true I love. I love that, and I really love the way that the heroes journey through Joseph Campbell, the ancient wisdom of the Vaders, the Dada Ching. They all over. They all connect and overlay, and I love that because I think that I don't know brings us all together.
183
00:30:23.740 --> 00:30:28.160
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, if it's true, it's true, no matter where it comes from.
184
00:30:28.160 --> 00:30:31.930
Deborah Tyson: Oh, I love that. Yeah. So
185
00:30:32.350 --> 00:30:33.550
Deborah Tyson: we've
186
00:30:34.240 --> 00:30:47.590
Deborah Tyson: talked about. You've given away a lot of very practical ideas that can help us with our energy. But what is one thing that people can do right now? That would give them an immediate energy. Boost.
187
00:30:47.930 --> 00:30:48.930
Rachel Julie Adams: Hmm.
188
00:30:50.550 --> 00:30:51.440
Rachel Julie Adams: well.
189
00:30:51.680 --> 00:31:12.484
Rachel Julie Adams: this is interesting because it came up in our talk I had with my group this morning. Just recognize what environment really fills you with that beautiful state of connection, and it might be being out in nature, it might be being in the sunshine. That's not always possible, depending on where you live.
190
00:31:13.060 --> 00:31:20.780
Rachel Julie Adams: and yeah, just recognize, or even making note of a few things that where you feel really good like, I know, I put on
191
00:31:21.380 --> 00:31:26.877
Rachel Julie Adams: a certain type of music. It lifts me, yeah, motown classic motown.
192
00:31:27.300 --> 00:31:28.350
Deborah Tyson: Meatloaf.
193
00:31:31.320 --> 00:31:32.270
Rachel Julie Adams: It's having
194
00:31:32.610 --> 00:31:47.200
Rachel Julie Adams: a toolkit of some of those things that you know. Lift your energy. It might be cleaning out a closet or the junk drawer or something, but a few of those things that lift your energy, and if it's something you can do every day I do
195
00:31:47.360 --> 00:31:55.750
Rachel Julie Adams: meditation. Every day I focus on my day in the morning while I drink my coffee. I love it, and it sets me up for the day.
196
00:31:55.830 --> 00:32:01.179
Rachel Julie Adams: So if you can include something every day that just connects you to yourself, and something you love.
197
00:32:01.990 --> 00:32:23.299
Deborah Tyson: So like I do that I do that, too, like if I go for a walk with my dog and 2 friends, if I come away from that I always feel amazing. So that's a sign. But I also think what you're suggesting there, because I do this as well. I meditate 1st thing when I get up like it's ritual to set your energy up for the day. Is that what you're suggesting.
198
00:32:23.300 --> 00:32:25.599
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, if it becomes a habit.
199
00:32:25.820 --> 00:32:29.829
Rachel Julie Adams: that's that's ideal, because it makes it easy. And if it's
200
00:32:29.950 --> 00:32:37.674
Rachel Julie Adams: but I think what's really important is for it to be something you love that you look forward to. You're not doing it because you think you should.
201
00:32:38.510 --> 00:32:56.330
Rachel Julie Adams: because not everyone enjoys or feels comfortable meditating in the classic way. I I don't do it like with my legs crossed, and I sit with my cup of coffee, and I focus on certain things, but it could be I mean walking a dog. You.
202
00:32:56.720 --> 00:32:58.854
Rachel Julie Adams: you know I love my dog
203
00:32:59.560 --> 00:33:03.820
Rachel Julie Adams: and it could. That's a meditation as well, and choosing maybe to not
204
00:33:03.960 --> 00:33:15.579
Rachel Julie Adams: look at your phone or leave it at home and be one with something outside of all of the the noise that can invade our space
205
00:33:15.610 --> 00:33:18.089
Rachel Julie Adams: all the time, so.
206
00:33:18.090 --> 00:33:28.520
Deborah Tyson: I think that's an important distinction. It's got to be what you love, not what you think you should do, or prescribing to what somebody says you should do, but it's resonating with you. Yeah.
207
00:33:28.790 --> 00:33:41.460
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, that's really part of understand. I call it understanding your operating system. But we're all unique. And we all have different ways of doing things that feel true for us, that feel right.
208
00:33:41.460 --> 00:33:50.650
Deborah Tyson: And it's honoring and respecting our way. Yeah, I love that. That's beautiful. And do you think there's such a thing as an energetic mindset?
209
00:33:53.171 --> 00:33:54.878
Rachel Julie Adams: If you decide there is.
210
00:33:57.320 --> 00:34:14.180
Rachel Julie Adams: you can make up anything you like. Honestly, you decide you're going to have an energetic mindset. You can have it. You know, we're creative beings, and it doesn't matter what you call anything. But absolutely you can create what you like. I mean.
211
00:34:14.370 --> 00:34:18.030
Rachel Julie Adams: I hope I have an energetic mindset. I but
212
00:34:18.040 --> 00:34:20.170
Rachel Julie Adams: given that, I'd say.
213
00:34:21.359 --> 00:34:35.699
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, sometimes I might just feel tired, and I'll go have a nap, so you can't be at that that high level all the time. That's kind of asking a lot of yourself.
214
00:34:35.699 --> 00:34:37.039
Deborah Tyson: Either. Yeah.
215
00:34:37.040 --> 00:34:43.540
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, yeah. Recognizing of ebbs and flows just like nature, you know. Yeah.
216
00:34:43.870 --> 00:34:46.569
Rachel Julie Adams: flowers bloom. And then they, you know.
217
00:34:46.650 --> 00:34:53.600
Rachel Julie Adams: they'll drop their leaves and then bloom again. So we all have ebbs and flows. But I think that's really
218
00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:59.280
Rachel Julie Adams: understanding who you are, and that sometimes you do need a nap or
219
00:34:59.790 --> 00:35:01.740
Rachel Julie Adams: some quiet time.
220
00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:18.619
Rachel Julie Adams: some time to yourself. Some people get energized around people for other people. Certain people, you know, drain your energy. So just being aware of of what lights you up, what drains your batteries.
221
00:35:19.100 --> 00:35:24.450
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, I think that's really important. It's about being authentic, too. We're not saying when you're energetic and
222
00:35:24.550 --> 00:35:36.389
Deborah Tyson: high energy, and in a loving state that you don't have normal emotions, challenges. It's okay to feel sad. It's okay to feel angry. They're all unnatural emotions. But
223
00:35:36.400 --> 00:35:58.349
Deborah Tyson: I guess it's determining overall. You know this the way you would like to engage in the world, and the way that you would like to be, and I was just going to ask if you've decided that you want an energetic mindset. So you say, all right, that's I feel inspired by that. And that's the way I'd like to go forward, and then unconsciously, those voices come up
224
00:35:58.350 --> 00:36:17.420
Deborah Tyson: and say, Oh, no! You know, the ego says that you're not good enough to do that, or you're not worthy, or this is not for you. You need to go back to struggle and working hard in a job you don't like, or in relationships that aren't good for you when that those voices come up, what would you suggest that you do.
225
00:36:18.530 --> 00:36:34.739
Rachel Julie Adams: 1st of all recognize them, you know, really tune in to what's coming up. And is it the voice of you're not capable? And I do a lot of deep work with my clients on that to really go back to
226
00:36:34.900 --> 00:36:43.439
Rachel Julie Adams: the origin of that story that you made. But even if you don't do that just to recognize you're hearing a voice
227
00:36:43.600 --> 00:36:44.860
Rachel Julie Adams: in your head
228
00:36:44.880 --> 00:36:54.849
Rachel Julie Adams: or an energy a vibration of I can't do that. Well, that's not for me. Other people get to do that, not me. And knowing
229
00:36:54.930 --> 00:36:57.979
Rachel Julie Adams: it came from somewhere, it got made up
230
00:36:58.070 --> 00:37:00.860
Rachel Julie Adams: somehow, so, just recognizing that.
231
00:37:01.040 --> 00:37:12.500
Rachel Julie Adams: allowing it to be, but deciding to override it, deciding to do the thing you want to do, and the more you do that, recognize it and say, but no.
232
00:37:12.600 --> 00:37:23.879
Rachel Julie Adams: I'm doing this, and you can craft a choice statement around wanting about doing the thing that you really want to do the thing that you've decided you would love to do
233
00:37:24.300 --> 00:37:25.800
Rachel Julie Adams: and repeat that.
234
00:37:26.490 --> 00:37:40.509
Rachel Julie Adams: You know I know I feel like affirmations might not have the best reputation. But there is something about repeating the choice, knowing that you have this little voice that says, No, you can't.
235
00:37:40.720 --> 00:37:48.909
Rachel Julie Adams: but deciding to override it and say, Yes, I can, and I'm choosing to. I can, because I decided to do it.
236
00:37:48.970 --> 00:38:08.530
Rachel Julie Adams: I'm committed to do it. There's a wonderful, wonderful quote, and I can't remember it verbatim, but it's by William. Actually, I have it on my wall. I can't see it from here, though, William H. Murray and he was on a Himalayan expedition team. And it's something like this
237
00:38:08.680 --> 00:38:13.630
Rachel Julie Adams: when one decides when one. When one is committed.
238
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:20.849
Rachel Julie Adams: all sorts of things come into play that you had never dreamt would happen until you became committed.
239
00:38:21.060 --> 00:38:22.250
Deborah Tyson: Oh, I love that.
240
00:38:22.430 --> 00:38:24.169
Rachel Julie Adams: Not the actual birds, but.
241
00:38:24.170 --> 00:38:25.860
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, that's the essence.
242
00:38:25.860 --> 00:38:26.270
Rachel Julie Adams: That's the.
243
00:38:26.270 --> 00:38:29.320
Deborah Tyson: What you're saying. Yeah. So
244
00:38:29.550 --> 00:38:42.660
Deborah Tyson: from what you're saying to that, all the voices in your head, even when you hear them, that some of them aren't real, just because it's in your head and your head saying it. It doesn't mean that's real, or you have to believe in it. You can decide what you believe in.
245
00:38:42.910 --> 00:38:47.337
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, yeah, you can totally override it. And it actually
246
00:38:48.500 --> 00:39:03.249
Rachel Julie Adams: it works in your brain as well to create new pathways, because you're used to the one pathway the old way, if you'd like the way of no, I can't do that. I'm too old to do that, or I'm too young.
247
00:39:03.270 --> 00:39:06.094
Rachel Julie Adams: or whatever you decide.
248
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:10.320
Rachel Julie Adams: I don't have the education I don't have, whatever it is.
249
00:39:10.520 --> 00:39:11.380
Rachel Julie Adams: That's
250
00:39:11.510 --> 00:39:15.249
Rachel Julie Adams: been a pathway for a long time that your brain is just
251
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:29.009
Rachel Julie Adams: filters, things based on that filters everything it perceives based on that. So it kind of works. It's created. This kind of like a river for
252
00:39:30.036 --> 00:39:32.059
Rachel Julie Adams: sorts to flow down.
253
00:39:32.330 --> 00:39:38.190
Rachel Julie Adams: But you can choose a new pathway, and the more you repeat that new pathway to yourself that
254
00:39:38.260 --> 00:39:45.319
Rachel Julie Adams: that override that bridge over that old belief to the new way you decide to be.
255
00:39:45.400 --> 00:39:48.499
Rachel Julie Adams: the more your brain will then filter
256
00:39:48.510 --> 00:39:50.470
Rachel Julie Adams: for that outcome.
257
00:39:50.980 --> 00:40:00.589
Rachel Julie Adams: and you'll start. And that's how exact exactly what William H. Murray said in that quote, once you're committed. So if you're committed to something
258
00:40:00.860 --> 00:40:06.669
Rachel Julie Adams: doesn't matter what happens, you're going for it for that one outcome that you would love.
259
00:40:06.810 --> 00:40:22.750
Rachel Julie Adams: And then it seems like magic that all these synchronicities happen. But maybe we're really attracting that at that energy level of vibration because we're focusing our energy on that new outcome that we would like.
260
00:40:23.340 --> 00:40:29.209
Deborah Tyson: And that's just totally empowering, isn't it? Because you've got a choice? You don't have to be on autopilot.
261
00:40:29.550 --> 00:40:30.330
Deborah Tyson: Yes.
262
00:40:30.330 --> 00:40:32.009
Rachel Julie Adams: Are you your
263
00:40:32.670 --> 00:40:43.170
Rachel Julie Adams: the navigator? You're not allowing yourself to just flow with the wind or your limiting beliefs. You're actually deciding.
264
00:40:43.500 --> 00:40:48.440
Rachel Julie Adams: And and then obviously, you have to take actions, take aligned actions.
265
00:40:48.450 --> 00:40:49.609
Rachel Julie Adams: But yeah.
266
00:40:50.150 --> 00:40:50.960
Rachel Julie Adams: okay.
267
00:40:50.960 --> 00:40:54.486
Deborah Tyson: Well, just a few more questions. And
268
00:40:55.010 --> 00:41:04.969
Deborah Tyson: I think, why do people need to do this? Now you know what is the cost of not actually changing themselves for their loved ones and their future. If they
269
00:41:05.210 --> 00:41:21.520
Deborah Tyson: and people obviously don't want to change unless they're unhappy like. Obviously, if you feel you're in the flow, and you're happy with your life. But I know stress is the world's leading disability. Right now. There are a lot of people that feel stuck or trapped. So what is the cost of not changing.
270
00:41:22.730 --> 00:41:33.649
Rachel Julie Adams: Oh, well, that quote from Bronnie Ware, that getting to the end of life, and just having that regret that you didn't live the life that you felt was true for you.
271
00:41:33.660 --> 00:41:43.129
Rachel Julie Adams: That's the ultimate cost. But also you're happier when you're living a life that's true for you when you're doing the things that you know.
272
00:41:43.330 --> 00:41:50.090
Rachel Julie Adams: that feel aligned, that you know you're here for that light you up, and you set an example for people around you like
273
00:41:50.300 --> 00:41:54.520
Rachel Julie Adams: for your children, or you know your friends or family?
274
00:41:54.971 --> 00:42:03.858
Rachel Julie Adams: The ones that really love you. You know there might be some that it unsettles them because it might highlight for them what they're not doing.
275
00:42:05.110 --> 00:42:10.240
Rachel Julie Adams: mostly, I would say, it's for yourself, and to live that high vibration life that
276
00:42:10.460 --> 00:42:23.010
Rachel Julie Adams: can only have a positive impact on on most people around you. Even if it shakes things up a little for some people, it might get them to think for themselves too like well, she can do it.
277
00:42:23.050 --> 00:42:24.410
Rachel Julie Adams: I can, too.
278
00:42:25.130 --> 00:42:47.590
Deborah Tyson: Yeah, that's right. And and you know, from what I've seen, too, people think. Oh, it's not possible for me. It's too hard, or things are going to change, things will just keep. They'll get better. But if you keep doing the same old thing, it usually doesn't. Usually you need to make a change to make things better, and from what I've learned for myself and from many people around me, is that
279
00:42:47.990 --> 00:43:02.600
Deborah Tyson: if you feel stuck or trapped, it is possible to have that fulfilling life and the way to get these by learning the life skills like it's possible to learn to grow. But usually you do need to get the support. It can be reading.
280
00:43:02.600 --> 00:43:19.090
Deborah Tyson: changing your perspective. But life skills, I think, are the way that people move through when they're stuck in their personal journey and get to where they want to be. Get to the other side of it. And when we're a lot of people, as I said, are feeling challenged, and I do believe it's important to
281
00:43:19.160 --> 00:43:30.989
Deborah Tyson: remember that you're not alone to reach out to get the help and support. There's so much free support in the world as well as coaching, such as Rachel does resources.
282
00:43:31.230 --> 00:43:37.919
Deborah Tyson: courses, podcasts and meditations which we have on bliss. But we have a beautiful, beautiful course on energy
283
00:43:38.120 --> 00:43:56.639
Deborah Tyson: from Rachel, on Blissbot, that she's done so, I think, when you are stuck, or feeling trapped or down overwhelmed, just get the support and help yourself. That's what I do. When, if I've gone as far as I can with my own skills and I feel stuck, I think there's no need to stay like that. But by getting those skills I can really
284
00:43:56.680 --> 00:44:00.360
Deborah Tyson: make a positive difference for myself and for the people around me.
285
00:44:01.060 --> 00:44:04.349
Rachel Julie Adams: Absolutely. I mean, we're pack animals, aren't we? We're not many.
286
00:44:04.350 --> 00:44:08.530
Deborah Tyson: That's right, that's right.
287
00:44:08.770 --> 00:44:13.970
Deborah Tyson: We are meant to be connected. That's our natural state. We feel happier, generally speaking.
288
00:44:14.110 --> 00:44:15.600
Deborah Tyson: so it's
289
00:44:15.780 --> 00:44:25.640
Deborah Tyson: oh, sorry a couple more things what I know you've shared a lot today already, but just as an overall thing, what is what have you learned on your journey, Rachel?
290
00:44:27.120 --> 00:44:28.800
Rachel Julie Adams: Oh, really? Good question.
291
00:44:28.800 --> 00:44:29.085
Deborah Tyson: And
292
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:35.209
Rachel Julie Adams: I've learned I'm more capable than I often give myself credit for.
293
00:44:35.340 --> 00:44:42.129
Rachel Julie Adams: I've learned that if I really want something I just say yes.
294
00:44:42.180 --> 00:44:50.080
Rachel Julie Adams: and then figure out how to do it. I don't have to have it all mapped out ahead of time, in fact, that can
295
00:44:50.530 --> 00:44:53.219
Rachel Julie Adams: that can inhibit some of the magic, and
296
00:44:53.260 --> 00:45:05.749
Rachel Julie Adams: the honey business that I started is an example of that, because I had no intention of selling honey. I knew I had the entrepreneurial spirit. I wanted to do something.
297
00:45:05.820 --> 00:45:14.630
Rachel Julie Adams: and I ended up making jam and fun flavors, because, you know, I went to art school. So you get that, you know?
298
00:45:16.510 --> 00:45:16.875
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah.
299
00:45:17.240 --> 00:45:17.770
Deborah Tyson: Oh, my God!
300
00:45:17.770 --> 00:45:23.250
Rachel Julie Adams: And so I was making jam, and then I was selling at these farmers, markets, and some shops.
301
00:45:23.340 --> 00:45:28.340
Rachel Julie Adams: and they wanted me at this one particular farmers market that I really wanted to be in.
302
00:45:28.390 --> 00:45:36.110
Rachel Julie Adams: and they called me up and said, We want you here in a week. Oh, and can you have, honey as well, because you're replacing someone who had honey.
303
00:45:36.350 --> 00:45:37.482
Rachel Julie Adams: I said, Okay.
304
00:45:39.900 --> 00:45:41.600
Rachel Julie Adams: how am I gonna do that?
305
00:45:42.720 --> 00:45:47.248
Rachel Julie Adams: I was a beekeeper, my cousin, and that wasn't much help.
306
00:45:47.670 --> 00:46:00.429
Rachel Julie Adams: and but I said yes, and that saying yes, when I had no idea if someone, if I'd like been sitting, I never would have come up with doing a honey company? Never! If I was just on my own thinking about it.
307
00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:06.119
Rachel Julie Adams: because it was the path, the bridge to something I wanted. I just said yes.
308
00:46:06.360 --> 00:46:15.950
Rachel Julie Adams: and I figured it out. One thing led to another, and I created San Diego Honey Company, which I sold years ago, but
309
00:46:16.370 --> 00:46:19.450
Rachel Julie Adams: never would have happened if I hadn't have said yes.
310
00:46:19.620 --> 00:46:21.240
Rachel Julie Adams: and then figured it out.
311
00:46:21.240 --> 00:46:30.569
Deborah Tyson: Yeah. And you said, Yes, you're not just out there, randomly saying Yes, because it was aligned, and you wanted to do it. And the opportunity came your way. So I I love that.
312
00:46:31.000 --> 00:46:34.130
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, be prepared for surprises. You never know.
313
00:46:34.580 --> 00:46:46.540
Deborah Tyson: That's right. True going with the flow. I love it so. Finally, why do you do this beautiful life enhancing work that you do.
314
00:46:47.070 --> 00:46:47.775
Rachel Julie Adams: Oh,
315
00:46:48.650 --> 00:47:08.170
Rachel Julie Adams: It just fills me with the deepest satisfaction, the deepest peace. You know. I can be tired, and I have a client, and I mean most of my clients are in Europe and the Us. But I have some in Australia. So for me, that's afternoon evening.
316
00:47:08.370 --> 00:47:14.789
Rachel Julie Adams: And because this just happened last week, and then I'm so focused when I'm 1 on one with somebody.
317
00:47:14.880 --> 00:47:20.100
Rachel Julie Adams: I'm actually energized at the end of it. It's amazing. So that tells me a lot.
318
00:47:20.220 --> 00:47:29.456
Rachel Julie Adams: I couldn't imagine anything that would give me a greater sense of joy fulfillment, connection to people.
319
00:47:30.300 --> 00:47:50.860
Rachel Julie Adams: and also it fits my operating system because I am endlessly curious. And I'm always reading new books and discovering things. And I get to bring that to the people I work with and create systems to to deliver the information that I feel
320
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:53.279
Rachel Julie Adams: comes through me as well.
321
00:47:53.710 --> 00:48:06.310
Deborah Tyson: Incredible. Well, that's beautiful. Well, thank you so much, Rachel, for being here today and sharing your beautiful wisdom. I, as I've said, absolutely love working and collaborating with you.
322
00:48:06.370 --> 00:48:18.790
Deborah Tyson: I think your work has. You know it does change changes people energy and helps them tap into who they truly are. So thank you so much, and I look forward to our next time.
323
00:48:18.980 --> 00:48:20.675
Rachel Julie Adams: Yeah, thank, you.
