when you lead from a place of doing when you're leading from just an action and who you are doesn't align with the very things you are doing, that's not going to be consistent. But when you come from a place of being who I have to be nice. If you focus on, have to be a disciplined, focused, you know, positive person. Most likely you will do what a disciplined, focused, positive person will do, and then you will have what a disciplined, focused, positive personal

half after spending years growing, a business rooted in a mission of giving back. Brad and Stephanie are here to give strength thio all areas of your life. Get ready to hear from experts in every field, from finance and fitness to mindset, relationships and entrepreneurship. This is the gift strength podcast wear so excited to

spk_1:   0:56
invite Maria Contra onto the show. She is known as the Manifesting Ninja. So we're here to talk all things manifestation, which I'm really excited about because it's something I'm dipped my toe into, but I don't really know a lot about. So we have the expert here. I'm super stoked,

spk_3:   1:13
and I'm excited because I have dipped No toes. So I get to learn all about it today.

spk_1:   1:19
Zero toes have been bit. So we love to start this out with three questions. So I'm gonna throw three questions at you, and then we'll build from there. First question. Super simple. Real. What do you do? I am a

spk_0:   1:33
mind set and manifesting coach for high achieving women. Who? I

spk_1:   1:38
love it. Okay, we're definitely gonna expand on that. All right, number two, Do you have Ah, book or podcast or audio book or anything? That that is really speaking to you right now. Or maybe something that has affected your life

spk_0:   1:50
in the past. Yeah. So the book that I think has been the most impactful for me has been the power of your subconscious mind by Joseph Murphy, huh? Yeah, it's a good one, because it's, um it's basically love attraction, but from a perspective from a practical logical, you know, for a second.

spk_1:   2:11
Yeah, I I love that. I think I've may be avoided manifestation because of the womb side of it, but I feel like you're gonna maybe dispel some of that for us. Yeah.

spk_3:   2:22
Woo, no, that's the technical term for a movie. Just

spk_1:   2:26
go ready. And then third quick question here because this is the gifts drink podcast, and we're all about giving to others and giving to yourself. I'd love to know a time in recent memory where you really gave strength to someone else or to yourself.

spk_0:   2:42
Sure. Um who I love your mission. First stop. I think it's so beautiful what you two are doing and how you're giving back, especially right now. So I'm honored to be on this podcast, and I think, honestly, I'm just keeping it real. I think lately I've been really giving a lot of free coaching calls and just ah Thanh of value for free. Really? Uh, and just really you never know where you impact, especially during a time like this in such a short amount of time. So much has changed, Andi. It's just really beautiful to be able to use my gifts and, you know, just gift it. Really?

spk_1:   3:16
Yeah. We're recording this during the Kobe 19 outbreak. So you've definitely been sharing your service is things that you normally tried for, for free, which is really kind and awesome during this time.

spk_3:   3:28
Yeah, it's amazing, because if we ever needed manifesting I think it would be Now what? We're all sitting at home going. What's next? What do we D'oh

spk_1:   3:38
on that? No, I would love Thio. Dig into manifestation. So what? What is manifestation? Like what? Does that

spk_0:   3:44
work? Meat Packing me out. So, Theophilus of Manifestation. Yeah, Alright. We break it down for you. Manifestation Whether you believe in it or not, you are manifesting all day long because what it is, it's just like basic basic basic steps. Are you? It's what you think about you bring about, right? It's about putting, you know, getting clear with ah thought right. Intentional. So we call it deliberate creation because you're already creating by default. And if you're operating out of a fear scarcity mindset than you're creating these fear scarcity driven experiences into your life and all that is seriously like what you're turning into, what you're thinking about, what you're believing in and what you anchor that on. So if you're operating like I said days that you know, you will be a magnet for all that you do desire with up with other steps because it's not I I will say this. I'm not a monk on amounts from in New York City. I'm in the hustle bustle, you know? So I I'm I'm a fucking duer, like people know me to do, right? And an action taker, and I get shit done like that's part of my identity. People know when you work with Maria, like Homer, get shit done. But the reason that I started to work on an infestation and what it is, is it's just accomplishing your goals, crushing your goals with ease and flow. Oh, I

spk_1:   5:24
mean, that sounds better than struggling.

spk_3:   5:27
Yeah, I'm connected now. I've dipped toes. I just didn't know what it was called, but I've dipped his toes for sure.

spk_1:   5:33
I will say, I think Brad actually does a lot of manifestation work without calling it that or without knowing that that's what it was. But he's really big on mind set and creating the future and being open to possibility. So I think Brad, you're a little more in touch with this manifestation thing than you think.

spk_3:   5:50
I think I just need to get on the ninja level.

spk_1:   5:52
Yes, way got her here. So it's still sounds

spk_0:   5:57
wu to me. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. I got. You

spk_3:   6:01
know, it's not what we're over here. So now it's you and me. We're gonna manifest for her to understand this.

spk_1:   6:06
So can you Can you make it May be a little more little more tangible for me. A little more of you seen this work in your life or someone else's life.

spk_0:   6:16
Yeah. So I just broke down what non infestation is And just like a shoot a couple of words, right? But I'll give you like, a tap, like my five money manifesting pillars who

spk_1:   6:28
I love money

spk_2:   6:29
NFS she's you

spk_0:   6:33
know, she's like, Hurry, Wait, I'm all like yo chose full body. So basically my five mind manifesting pillars are one. Is that clear clarity on what you want? And I know that you may say to me, woman everything, though that is here's the thing a lot of and I'm speaking for women because this is right. You know why, Coach? Ah, lot of women want to ask for just enough. Oh, I just want enough to parent bills. Oh, I just and it's like they apologize for wanting the finer things in life, right? Getting clear and like, specific on what you want. Zeroing in is so important. Like un apologizing about the things you want and the reason that women or even men It's not like I'm not leaving you out of Brad.

spk_3:   7:19
I have court. Yeah,

spk_0:   7:21
this is resonate with you too. But men and women, it's not just women but men and women. What happens is like we say, Okay, I want this. And then what creeps in the how and the wedding. How is this gonna happen? Oh, my gosh. But I have all this going on. How is gonna happen? How is it gonna happen? And that's that's not your problem right now. I'll explain to you why right now? Because we're on the first floor, right? And then the wen When is it gonna to obsess over the Wen? And I say what I always say with when you won't have a goal in mind, right? Always add this up, you hunt, so you have your goal. And then you can say this or something better And this or something better. It leaves you open for grandeur possibilities, because sometimes the universe god source, energy, whoever you believe in has weight bigger plans. And we could have ever breaking imagine for ourselves. And also from like a practical standpoint, when you say this or something better, it kind of feels really good to be like Okay, well, this is going But there could potentially be something better. Okay, I could subscribe to that.

spk_1:   8:28
I feel like that's an interesting point. And and Brad is down with the speaking directly to women. He's seen how you know,

spk_3:   8:38
I'm a feminist way. We can all be open and honest around.

spk_1:   8:43
He's down. But it is interesting to see how I have male friends and colleagues that they do just automatically grant themselves permission to want that Lamborghini or to want that see sweet job. Or, you know, whereas women do, why don't we instantly discount ourselves opening yourself up right off the bat? Your biggest dream Plus is hot.

spk_0:   9:08
Yes, girl. And you're right, men Mental care. They're like, I want this. I want gosh, like what don't they want, right? I know, but my hubby, he's all about like, you know he can, like, visualize the heck out of everything. You know, when I used to struggle with really claiming it for many recent five had all these beliefs around money and material things and all of that. And then I realized what? When good people make good money, they do great things, right?

spk_1:   9:33
Yes. Mr Harder loves to tell you that we love him.

spk_0:   9:37
Yeah, exactly. And it's just it's so it's so true what he says, you know, when he it's incredible. Because look, at the end of the day, this is what I tell you. Know the ladies that I coach because, Well, you know, I want to make I want to make money. But I was I want to be a good person, but you can't be a good person. And then, like those able, I don't need to make money to make an impact to to do charity. And I said Okay. All right. All right. So

spk_1:   9:57
you go on with your two

spk_0:   9:58
jobs and and having to come back home and raise your kids like, where

spk_1:   10:02
you going? Where you gonna find time

spk_0:   10:05
to around here? You're really not your kind, caring person is just gonna find kind, caring missions.

spk_1:   10:12
Yes, that's that's definitely something we've been trying to open up to our audience about because I've posted a few things on Instagram about money because I'm really big into making as much money as you can because it gives you the tools and the time like you said the time to give back to these causes. Whereas when we were financially struggling, we could never donate to causes we couldn't volunteer. So having that abundance you're right, just lead you to be kind and good in bigger ways.

spk_3:   10:40
Yeah, and my favorite part about money is it just gives you options like the options are there. Like, for example, you know, we're filming this and we're all at home not working but stepping. I luckily had enough funds to be like, You know what? Let's buy podcast stuff. Let's start this. Let's do that. And we're not so scared about what's happening in the future because we have a plan and manifest that money. Who

spk_1:   11:06
do we stop in the world?

spk_3:   11:08
Back to the beginning? I like the this or something better because it leaves like the box open because sometimes, like in my mind, when I'm like thinking about things that I want, I'll think like grand, But then I'll be like, but do I want a little bit more and then I won't go for the thing. Because I'm, like, scared like Is that the right thing where it's like, No, just go for and see what else happens cause better things can

spk_0:   11:32
happen. Yeah, it leaves you open to possibilities.

spk_1:   11:37
Love it. So that's the first? Yes.

spk_0:   11:40
That's the first pillar. The second pillar is embody this person. So, for example, if you want to be a fix that you're seven figure eight, figure earner CEO, Bad s CEO Like, how is she showing up? You know, what are her characteristics? Most likely, Homegirl is focused, disciplined, positive, right. So embody this person. So before you have the bank account will before you have, you know your business or whatever it is, show up. Like the person that already lives this life that you want.

spk_3:   12:18
Okay, We're on the same page because I do this constantly. We're now best French. It's just half interest. You know, we're best friends. Uh, cause yeah, all the time I do this. When I was gonna run an ultra marathon, I was like, Ok, what do ultra marathoners do? How do they act? What did they wear? What did they do? and I just started doing that. And then eventually you just become that thing. And then it's amazing.

spk_0:   12:44
Yeah, 100%. And your So you naturally have this, um, intuition to do this right? This include to do this. And that's beautiful, that you have that And it's some people when they think around the station. That's why such people are created by default and you don't even know it, right? So you might as well learn the rules. Just want to make a point, if I may about the doing. I caution people from leading with the doing and hear me out on this at the beginning of the year. What does everyone dio They sign up for the gym? You both know this very well. Okay, So any, like, new people like that are brand new that are like, you know, those. I'm sure you've seen them that they're like, you know, this is the year yada yada, but what happens is that only 7% actually stay and are consistent. I'm not shocked. We see this all the time, right? But what happens is that when you lead from a place of doing when you're leading from just an action. Just doing and who you are doesn't align with the very things you are doing. That's not going to be consistent. But when you come from a place of being who I have to be, right, so if you focus on, have to be a disciplined, focused, you know, positive person, most likely you will do what a disciplined, focused, positive person will do, and then you will have what a disciplined, focused, positive person will have, right so that you will do it, go to the gym and then you'll have it potentially that, like Bob, that you want the summer bog. If Sammy

spk_1:   14:19
I love it, that's so interesting because one of my biggest struggles when I was personal training a lot, I would come home and I would complain to Brad like, I don't know why I can't get these people to do what they're paying me to have them. D'oh! I want them to succeed and I would get so frustrated and Brad would say they're not ready yet. They haven't made up their mind, but I think you're like you're like a of manifesting injured.

spk_3:   14:44
What's less than an engine? Yeah,

spk_1:   14:46
like, What is

spk_3:   14:47
it like, What's a ninja and training? You're like Google That

spk_1:   14:53
but yeah, he kind of understood they didn't. Yeah. People need to put it in their brains and in their sunglasses and in their heart first. And a lot of people You're right. They sign up first. Yes, he showed up to the gym. They haven't decided they're gonna love it. They haven't decided that they're fully committed to this. And then it's a

spk_0:   15:11
struggle. Quick. Yeah, and it's also it's not part of their identity. The part of a big part of the work that I do like a huge majority is reprogramming your subconscious, mind that there's a huge thing that I like that that's why I'm in a great boat like the practical and the woo. And part of the practical is reprogramming your subconscious mind on dhe. Part of that is the identities that you're walking around with on if in your identity, you're not a focus discipline her spit, healthy person. If this isn't if you haven't subscribed to that identity or believe, then you're not going to be consistent at the gym or with your meals that make sense.

spk_1:   15:50
Yeah, absolutely. And it's something interesting because Brad and I people often talk to us and they say, Well, you're so fortunate because you're so upbeat naturally. And you love working out naturally for how tonight before I

spk_3:   16:03
hate working. Now

spk_1:   16:05
we complain about working out all the time.

spk_3:   16:07
I'm a former fat kids, sit on cash and eat,

spk_1:   16:10
but then when it's time to get it done, because we know we're gonna feel better, we like the results we put on, like our game face and our game body of You know what? I love this. This feels good. I'm a person. We put on that personality, get the work done and then, you know, when we check out

spk_0:   16:27
sounds like you have like in your identity, both of you, it's part of your lifestyle. It's nonnegotiable. Yes, right, absolutely. But that's the difference between you and someone else that want the same goals. However you've committed and subscribe to the identity that this is part of my lifestyle. Nonnegotiable. It's who I am. It's what B.

spk_1:   16:48
That's right. I love it. All right, so that's our second pillar

spk_0:   16:53
trap. So the 3rd 1 is aligned. Action not to be mistaken with inspired action. And I know like inspired action is like, Ah ha! Were you know, hot little phrase it Everyone's conspiring, action, taking time. But the reason I say don't, like, wait around for us because I

spk_1:   17:11
don't know what you're gonna

spk_0:   17:11
get inspired. You may be waiting for a really long time, so I just say, Like, take aligned action. And it really is just good old practical, tangible steps that a line with the very goal that you unapologetically claimed in that first step right in that first killer. What kind of actions are these? Yes. So, for example, is up one. You choked. You cleaned it, right? You got clear in. Claimed it set to You were embodying this person, right? The characteristics. So now, now that you're showing up like this person, now you can say, OK, let's say fitness is the goal, right? You wanna go to the gym and be consistent? So now aligned action is showing up like this person, right? How What would she be doing? Like what are her decisions like, What is she signing up for? What is she committing to really being mindful on dhe like I even like people was asked. Maria, where do I start on? I say have fun. Like when we were kids, we didn't like, pretend to be like a schoolteacher and say Wait, I'll have to go get my resume. No, we just did it, You know, so and every day was something new. I would say you don't know what that's what aligned steps to take, literally brain dump, right? Obviously, Just don't bring a random shit because, you know, but brain down, You know what you know, and you're like, obviously your brain, your intellect Like what would be some good tangible stops, right that I could do but, like, have fun with it may be part of the steps Can be ah, you know, partner up with someone caught, like do a, you know, like a virtual work out, Whatever the steps, whatever they are he created, I always empower and invite people to be creative. And then I want you to go through the list and see which one feels good Z. Which one excites you? This is aligned action. When you're in alignment, you feel good. Your body sends you the feel good signals that your tummies like I am so happy This bill's got or I feel calm Your body can't speak to you, right? Can't, like, actually speak to you. Right? But you can You have two ways to detect that. If you're in the liner, are out of alignment during the line. You're good. You're relaxed. You're operating out of faith, you know. But if you're out of alignment, you're fearful you're worried you're in anxiety on being in alignment is what allows you to be a magnet for your desires.

spk_1:   19:40
Okay, this is where a minute. I'm gonna get into this. So I believe I'm just curious what what your thought is. I believe that sometimes you need to do the things you're afraid off. You need to be uncomfortable with the action you're taking. So do you suggest if you are uncomfortable? Because I think big things are uncomfortable, but I love

spk_0:   20:00
this. My life is based off of going towards things I'm uncomfortable doing. That's how that's how I'm here, because that's all I've done. Now I want you to understand that there's a difference when we're uncomfortable because of ego, because we're weeks were afraid of being embarrassed over afraid of failing. That's exciting. That's still in alignment. That's still in alignment. That means, like, if

spk_1:   20:24
it scares you because

spk_0:   20:25
you scared that you know that, eagle, you got a big ego side. But if you don't feel good because you're just like I'm not excited about it, because the potential of doing it like you don't like you using your logic and your brain. I don't really like your kind of questioning it, not from an ego place from a heart driven place. And this takes practice. I know I'm saying it like it's so easy, but this is the work that I do. I help people find two of their intuition so that they are aware of what's ego and you know what is hard drinking?

spk_1:   21:00
Who that's That's really interesting, actually. And of course, my brain likes to equate it to fitness. And nutrition is because that's what I've done with, you know, the last decade or so of my life. But we always try and tell people when you eat this food, does it feel good in your body because, you know, some people are gluten intolerant or Darien Taylor or they're vegan or they're you know, they're forcing Akihito diet and their body feels miserable. And everyone has bio individuality. So we always tell them. Does it feel good to you? Does it not? Is it hard? I think you're right. This is interesting. Is it hard to incorporate more vegetables if you're not used to it? Absolutely. But does your body feel good after eat? Um,

spk_0:   21:37
yeah, really. But get your guys. Guys are manifesting, You know, trainers over here. I love

spk_1:   21:44
this. You can hire us. Well, we're gonna need you. We'll be your many ninjas out in the world. I I love that you're making this feel good in my brain because I think I've always heard words like manifestation. And I'm like, Ah, Oh, I don't know about that, but no, it makes sense when you talk about it this way. I love it.

spk_3:   22:04
Yeah, it's amazing. I also like how you hit all the corners because I'm always like I'll hear you say one thing and I'm like, Oh, no, I would feel weird just showing up wearing a suit one day if I show up in shorts all day, right? I'm just trying to put my myself in someone else's place. But then you, like, bring it in with I That's your ego. Check it. Check it. Like so. Yeah. This is great. This is great. We could just do three pillars and I'm not a set. I'm feeling good.

spk_1:   22:32
No, there's too hard. This two more. We got to know what's next half ass manifestation. Don't bail on it early, man. Uh, got more wrong. You

spk_0:   22:44
So did the 4th 1 is just what we're talking about. It's actually feel good. And often I get pushback on this because people are like Maria. How come I feel good when my bank account is in negatives? Right, So I completely understand that, but your bank account does not define who you are right now. Your bank account is a reflection of the seeds that you have planted the thoughts in your mind that you have planted 10 15 2030 years ago. So you just have We're upgrading the software, right? Just like an iPhone, cause I know all you guys of great including me of grade as soon as I get You know that upgrade third, because if not, there's glitches. It's not gonna work at you. know, you know, it's the best version. So the same thing with our brains in our minds that we have toe up great. Our systems are software. And with the feel good, you know, with this, like, feel good pillar, it's important to know that your point of attraction you are most magnetic when you feel good and bringing it to the point of your bank account. If you know, right now you are planting these new seats. You're reprogramming, you're limiting beliefs or money. You are like you and your money relationships are just arriving so much. And I want to talk about relationship with money. I'll do that at the end so that we can stay on track it, but so you're thriving with money. So if you work from the belief of who you are being right now and not what you have in the bank account work from a place of what he want to see versus what you do, see, because what you see, there is just a reflection of your past decisions when you no longer operate like this, right, because in pillar pillar to we embody a different person now, right? So we show up a different way. So now your job is to feel good, to gravitate towards things that make you feel good, and I'll give you an example, something tangible for you. I

spk_1:   24:42
love it if

spk_0:   24:43
right now you know we're going, there's this, like, you know, Pandemic going on. And I noticed which I knew was gonna I knew this was going to happen when the pandemic hit and when people are obsessed with the news. Mainstream media, you know, on Sally's calling you up saying, like, Look who dropped dead like it's like everywhere, right? Everyone's and it's just an addiction and it's horrible. So if you want me to give you an example of how you can and suddenly shift from fear toe faith or from you know, yet your fear to just feeling better because feeling better is better is a stuff up from feeling scared and in fear. All right, so shut off the news. Tune off the radio, you know, change the channel, change your clothes, put your makeup on like, you know, get into it. Do whatever it takes to shift because your points of attraction is really in feeling. A. And when you step into good feeling vibes. You know what happens? You actually attract successful people and opportunities because they're gonna want to be around you.

spk_1:   25:53
Oh, totally. Yes. And when we hire people, we always look for personalities, bright personalities. Um, we have hired people with a lot less experience before because they make us feel good and we want them to intern, make our clients feel good. So that's totally accurate. And then, yeah, we're paying the money. So they just manifested some good money by feeling good and making us feel good.

spk_0:   26:20
Yes, yes, and good things. But sometimes the way that, like most of us, aren't like operating is if it's too simple, it doesn't work. But I say unsubscribe from this like struggle city from the fact that you think you need to struggle to make it or to get ahead because like you just said, you hire people that make you feel good, right? And you can say, Well, it just makes me feel good. From a practical perspective, I think they're gonna really do well in our business with us, and we can grow. But that is part of manifestation. It's just a tool in a tactic that you know happened. So now, on their end, buy them feeling that in showing up like that, you come into their world, right? And they have attracted you or you walk into their world with the ad or whatever. You want to look at it from the practical perspective. But they're attracting you. You're attracting them and this is how it happens. I

spk_1:   27:12
know that

spk_3:   27:13
I'm so in tune that I forgot I was even on a podcast for a second. I was just listening.

spk_1:   27:19
He got very quiet over there. You tell me more, tell me more. So that's Pillar four.

spk_0:   27:26
Yes, and then the final pillar is surrender. Who? We will alert

spk_1:   27:37
us. My alarm is going on. I didn't keep

spk_0:   27:42
it so Really. All it is is literally just detaching yourself from an outcome like That's all it is. It's just not getting attached to something, because remember what we said in pillar one. This or something better right? It's being open to creative possibilities for abundance. It's it's it's it's really just believing of that. Money comes to you in expected and unexpected ways. That's how open we are. We are not meant to be these rigid linear thinkers and doers that closes you off Two possibilities, endless possibilities. And I could give you, like, a really good example of this attachment when people have, ah, goal, they usually like. And I know some people teach, like envision boards or some other mindset. Coach is like, you know, this is your plan. Stick to it, right? You're six months and I'm kind of like, no be free. I'll tell you why. Be free. Be free in the sense where yes, you have your goal but be flexible and expected to come like at any point. I had a client of mine who works a 9 to 5 job and she wanted to leave her job. And she's like, I'm so tired. I just want to leave so well during the work and she was fixated on I'm gonna leave in a year. I'm gonna leave in a year and I get it her like, logical brain because of how she grew up with, like, you know, just risk averse and all of that. So I said so I said I wouldn't even attach the Wen Remember we spoke about that the Wen because it's stipends, your growth in your belief. And now you're up reading at sea here. And as soon as you operate on fear you're out of alignment, You ain't gonna be a magnet. So what happened is I said, Hey, why don't you work from a place of your open to allowing it to come in in divine Tiny? Because you can say a year and what's gonna happen is you're gonna be in tunnel vision, just literally looking at that year thinking about that year. Meanwhile, it couldn't came three months, but you were. So you have the blinders, You're the blind results and you missed it. And that is what needs to not be open to create a possibilities.

spk_1:   29:50
Yeah, that's that's really interesting, because again, my alarm went off because I was like, No, no, no. I'm a fan of my timelines and my very strict goals. But you're right, like I've had a few goals where I've put strict timelines on them, and I almost when I look back, probably didn't do the work I should have done to reach that goal until, like, the last little bit, it's like in college when you're trying to get an assignment done. You wait until the night before, so I probably could have eased to some stress and worry if I had just opened up that timeline or that possibility. That's yeah and stuff I

spk_0:   30:23
want. What I want to add to that is that I'm not saying I'm not black away. I'm not like this is the blueprints. I don't believe in one blueprint, I believe, and learning what works for you, right? And let's say you have a goal and you just in your heart and sewing like you're like, you're God, you're like, You know what? I want this toe happen this time this day. That's my encourage Buck, do it you because you're on a roll because you're feeling good about it. And I know when you feel into it, that's when it's gonna happen, and it's probably gonna happen sooner. Then you expect, because you're just so excited about it. But if putting a fine line, a specific timeline to a goal makes you feel nervous because you're worried about it not happening at that time, then that's your guidance system, saying growth. Allow this or something better like you know, this or something better. And I'm gonna be open, you know, for different. I don't know for whenever it's ready, whenever it's time.

spk_1:   31:20
I love that. You can tell my brain is like, Oh, you created a new rule for me. I'm gonna try and follow your rules, but

spk_3:   31:27
you're really likes her. Well, I really

spk_1:   31:29
like rules, but I do like the idea and the older I get in all areas of my life like doing workouts that feel good on my body, eating things that feel good. I feel like, yeah, applying this to money and applying this to success that's it's interesting. I need to I need to simmer on this a little bit

spk_3:   31:47
now what about the person on the other end? The person that, like, has this open ended timeline and nothing seems toe happen?

spk_0:   31:58
Yeah, So I think that for for someone who has a goal, a clear goal has clear aligned actionable stuffs and is showing up like this person, then I would have to like, look into it because you're you're not doing one of like some something's off here, right? Something is off here. One of the stops is like you half accident You have passing. You know you're throwing up, you know, So it because really, by law, law of attraction. When you start to put these things into motion and you start to do them even for my practical perspective, like you're going to get results, right, how quick they come depends on how good you are allowing yourself to feel during the journey. You're fixated on a frickin you know, deadline. I don't know how good that's gonna feel and you're not gonna work from ease and flow, which is what I do. I

spk_1:   32:55
love it. That's so fun. That's

spk_3:   32:58
all made aware from easing flow regards have feels it just sounds cool. So someone's is like, How do you How are you productive? You're like I work in ease and flow. I don't know what you do, but fraud

spk_1:   33:10
is definitely a little more easing flow. I will

spk_3:   33:14
flow through my whole life if they allow me to read it allows May I will be liquid and I will flow through everything.

spk_1:   33:21
I will say

spk_0:   33:22
you're so in tune with your leg with the nap. That's our natural state. And I don't think that you're I think I'm pretty sure you guys are extremely productive. But I

spk_1:   33:31
think you have the right idea.

spk_0:   33:32
Believe it or not. Um Steffy. Oh, boy. Oh, boy knows.

spk_3:   33:36
Did you hear that? Just so we're clear. That might break a rule. So I just wanna make sure Stephanie Hurt

spk_1:   33:43
leaned into the mic.

spk_3:   33:44
So I leave it. I need to make sure everyone shouting it from the rooftop. Right now I'm on to something,

spk_1:   33:50
I will say, like touching on the money side, which I'd really love to dig into just a little bit more. We have had a journey with money, and like I said, we're trying to be more open about it with our audience because I have posted a few things and got mixed responses. Some people were really into the fact that we were talking about money. Some people definitely have hold ups like I got some G. M's in some responses in real life about people being like you. You're gonna talk about money because I think it is so empowering. And like we talked, it can make you a bigger version of a good person. But in our financial journey, Brad and I have seen every step. When we had a fitness studio, that was a really trying financial time. All of her money was going to the studio going to our instructors high overhead business. And Brad literally took $100 bill and put it on our fridge. This is you're manifesting ninja.

spk_3:   34:44
We didn't have, like, money for things when I was like this. $100 bills going on the fridge.

spk_1:   34:48
You take $100 bill put on the fridge, and I was like, we got bills to pay like that. Money has to go thio bills he put on the bridge. He said no, we're gonna look at that $100. You want to make that $100 girl, and now we keep Please don't break into her apartment. Now we keep a cash bar that has thousands of dollars in it. Yeah, on our counter because it just reminds us that we are abundant, that we have money that it comes. It goes, it's not a big deal. But it started with that $100 that I was really mad that you put on the fridge because I wanted to pay our bills.

spk_3:   35:19
I don't care. We'll get a late charge, but we're not using this 100.

spk_0:   35:25
Can I just say okay now I'm like, Okay, breath. Don't be like coaching with me, because that is actually one of my tactics that I have people dio who, uh, leave money lying around the house like And I remember when job first saw, like at Honda, he was like, What's up? Like, I know you have it on your altar, but like I'm saying, like bills? Or do you wait? We could such it. But the reason I'll give you, like the science behind it. The reason that that is show effective is because it is visualization. And the reason that visualization is Sodje and important impactful tool is because it affects your as your particular activity system. Who

spk_1:   36:07
has down science. See? So I like it.

spk_0:   36:09
Yeah. Yes. So when When? So your rats works through imagery images, right? So you're Raza's job is to filter in things that it deems important. We need this so that we don't go crazy. So, for example, I'll make it very clear if you go to the airport. There's a ton of people. There's so many things going on and let's say you're going in and you're like, now you're checking in or whatever cases and someone says your name, you're gonna know that that's your name, right? Cause that's already been instilled in your mind. You already know Britney running down a 1,000,000 times, right? School from when you were a great school. You're obviously you know your name. So the reason that looking at money and like seeing it every single day, such like, high amounts of money because it goes into your as it filters And and now you're going to start to filter this into your experience, Meaning you got used to seeing money. And now you're like, Oh, okay, like, money is everywhere, and now you're gonna start to see money everywhere. Now you're gonna start to see, like, the opportunities to make money to attract money in all these different ways because you're reprogramming your mind to see it that way.

spk_1:   37:10
Who that makes so much sense. If you're looking at a bank account that has negative $30 in all the time and you're focusing their that's all you're gonna see, that's all you're gonna know.

spk_3:   37:19
Mine was kind of silly. Where and I put that money on the fridge. It was just to be like, Well, I have money. It's on the fridge, right? Like I can. I have enough money to put $100 on the fridge. I'm not bankrupt. I'm not anything so just kind of reprogrammed me to, like Think No, I do have money, Don't stress. Let's just make more of it.

spk_0:   37:42
Yeah, it's exactly that's That's definitely the idea. And your mind can't tell the difference between what's real and what's not real. You could literally trick your mind like that's what I did. I brainwash myself into thinking when I wasn't a multiple six figure business owner like, I literally brainwashed myself to it to become it.

spk_1:   38:04
Which is so cool, because I feel like we've been very fortunate to train people that are successful. Actors, models host C E. O. C. Suite level people. And while I love all of them, I don't know that they're any better at what they're doing than anyone else. Like they've obviously of skills. But I think they convinced themselves at some point that they deserve to this job that they deserve this role. And they went and did it. That's why you

spk_0:   38:31
know, when you're like you go on like America, you see, like American Idol or one of these shows, and you're like, How did that person make it? And the girl who had so much more talent didn't make it through right, because the belief is so strong in, like person A and the other one, even though she has so much talent, she just didn't believe in it enough. And that's not always the case. But we do often see that we're like how, like she could see way better than her. She has way better moves or whatever the case is right, and it's just different factors that play a major part in this journey.

spk_1:   39:05
You said you wanted to talk about the money relationship. Did we touch on what you wanted to, or did you?

spk_0:   39:09
Yeah, no, I just wanted to add that in the beginning, I mentioned the relationship you have with money, like it's like any other relationship. If you wanted to thrive, it has to be healthy. So people often ask me manifesting ninja, How can I manage us more money talking about money? And I always say that her power is in the questions that you ask. So how about asking? What is my relationship with money? Are you hoarding it? Are you scared of not having enough? Do you think rich people suck? Are you not being mindful about it? Do you not trust in it that he will come to you that you know? So I always I ask this because a lot of times people walking around with, like, limiting beliefs around money and I just want to share with you like my relationship with money. I treat it like a treatment Mianne like we have like a same relationship because, like and your relationship, if you wanted to drive, it has to be healthy. So my relationship with money is wonderful. It's collaborative for its abundant. It's exciting. It's loyal, It's fun. It's ever flowing. This is my relationship with money, and I could literally say That's my relationship with job. It's fun. It's exciting. It's loyal and like anything in life, right. When you meet a man or woman and you start dating and you're like I don't know and you're not trusting of them like where's I'm gonna go get some time ago are the same thing with money. If you're not trusting of it, if you don't believe in it, If you're like, you know, kind of like giving it like Whoa, I'm not sure, you know. Does that make sense?

spk_1:   40:53
Absolutely. And I Let me just tell you how Brad and I have been doing that to you. I didn't even know.

spk_3:   40:59
I think you might actually treat money better than you treat me anyways.

spk_1:   41:05
No. Uh, no. Brad and I actually, we're pretty solid relationship. Wasn't always that way. I think when we were both living in beer of finances and things than we fought, um, we don't really find

spk_3:   41:17
you how you do. One thing is kind of how you do everything

spk_1:   41:20
slowly. So we have at that relationship shift with money. And I think it's also shifted our relationship. Um, last year, one of my goals because I can be 1/4 I can be a little afraid of what might happen. I made a rule that any charitable ask someone sent to me like, you know, fundraising on their birthday, or they're doing a fundraiser to Jim. Whatever it is, I would donate at least $20 toe every single one as long as it aligned with. I thought because and, uh, literally Brad night, both just only $20 or more to every one of these causes. And by the end of the year was thousands of dollars, which I would have been totally afraid at the beginning of the year to write thousands of dollar checks to these causes. But we gave out that money. It was totally flying. It made me feel like I have this to give and it doesn't affect me to give it its not taking away from my little acorn of cash. It's allowing me to feel like I can give and still receive and still have money in the bank. And it was amazing. That's really

spk_0:   42:18
beautiful. I love that. I really love that. And I feel like you guys have, like, a similar story to like Jeff and I, because we have. I, like, adore my man. You don't understand. We adore each other. We like a guy like him, like I really like him as a person that we've been together for almost 10 years, and it wasn't always like that, and I realize very quickly that money was something that if we didn't have enough of it and we were low and like struggling, it really affected our relationship. And I know that, like most of divorces are due to money because of not enough not having enough money. And I just I got really quick on it. I'm like, Hold on, hold on. You know, I used to sabotage my fucking amazing relationship with this man who, like God, was like, Well, your childhood, it was not good. I got you on your adulthood, you know? And we could sabotage this. And people are touching themselves all day long because of all these different beliefs. And they're not just not healthy on dhe. So, like you guys, us too. We wearing like people. Look at us now they look away.

spk_1:   43:18
Come on, you guys. You're so amazing,

spk_0:   43:19
So happy, you know? And I love sharing. I'm looking fully transparent about our struggles. Jack

spk_1:   43:25
is like,

spk_0:   43:25
brought up in, like, any interviewer like any. And he said Yeah, instrumental. Busted like, Are

spk_1:   43:29
you OK? Things like

spk_0:   43:29
that at school, Anything further growth or to help other people to serve I'm in Is that needs airing out like our dirty laundry, you know, but like by nature, I knew. You know what? Like we're really good people by nature. We don't like to argue. I were really bad at fight. We're really bad at fight. So when we were fighting, we're like, Well, what's going on? So I think that a lot of relationships and because they don't understand or uncover all these fears and limiting beliefs that they have walking into the relationship

spk_1:   44:01
with. Absolutely. And we just did a whole podcast interview. We were the interviewees about howto handle marriage and money together because it does it. It rips people who are. It's so good. I'm exciting. That comes out April, say

spk_3:   44:16
April 6 and

spk_1:   44:17
how to deal With is the name of the podcast. With Joel, we're excited, but yeah, totally. Brad and I love each other. It's kind of gross, like he's my favorite person.

spk_3:   44:28
I don't think it was gross it all on the romantic. Just so everybody knows if they haven't gotten that yet. Yes, I'm slowly, I'm romantic. She's rules and gives me things to Dio.

spk_1:   44:39
But even in our relationship, people have commented like Brad trains really hot women in public, and that doesn't make you uncomfortable, Are you afraid of like who I'm If I put energy into that or put that on him, make him uncomfortable, make him even think that. Then you're just opening that door. But if I just say, Oh, yeah, she's a hottie. Congratulations. You get to spend a couple hours with every week. That's awesome. You're still coming home here. I see your Google calendar. I know where you are, but it really helps just to give your relationship that freedom. I think that shows you know what? I'm not afraid of what happens. I'm open to only the best or wait, What is it? This or better

spk_3:   45:17
this or better? I'm gonna put that on the fridge. Everything good goes on the fridge because I love you So everything good goes on the fridge.

spk_1:   45:25
Well, awesome. I'm so excited about this. I'm also excited to know that maybe I've been manifesting without knowing it.

spk_3:   45:32
We're all manifesting.

spk_1:   45:33
And now I have a rod. I now I have more tools. Now, Aiken, go to those five pillars and actually, of course, because I want a little bit of rules to follow, I can follow those steps. Awesome. This is super valuable. Super exciting. Is there anything else you feel like you want to add? No, I mean,

spk_0:   45:54
I think Honestly, um, just I always encourage everyone, man or woman just be kind to yourself and be compassionate towards your journey on like I always like. My thing is, I treat myself the way I would my future five year old. I'm not going to talk down to my future, my girls, If they don't accomplish your goal, right, I'm gonna be kind to them. And I'm going to love them and encourage them and use kind words. And one of the biggest things that people do is in the privacy of their own minds. They talked down to themselves when they don't accomplish goals and an exercise that you guys can all do. Just if you're wondering what yourself talk is is just take notice from like, this conversation and on little voices in your head that may come up for you. Such as One of my clients allowed me to say this, but and my my signature program and bust your dream like the first week we just uncover a lot of stuff, and I have the monitor their thoughts on, she said. She came back that week and she was like, Oh my gosh, Maria, I didn't realize I'm so embarrassed to admit what I was saying to myself over and over and I said, What you say she was trying to cross the street on. I guess she she got caught up in late so she couldn't you know she could across the street and she said, I just kept calling myself a dick. Stop saying

spk_2:   47:11
for such a thing. Oh, it's funny, but so sad,

spk_0:   47:17
I know, But like in her head, she's like, I really thought like, Oh, it's like nothing but really it is everything. How you talk to yourself that affects how you feel. Your emotions and your emotions affect the actions that you take in how you show up in how you show up in life. This will get you the results

spk_1:   47:35
