00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.470
It wasn't until actually I started creating content on TikTok everything like shot it up to 250, 000 followers overnight.

00:00:08.500 --> 00:00:14.192
When we don't feel worthy, we sabotage all of the greatest things that we could possibly have in our lives.

00:00:14.297 --> 00:00:17.937
So many people think confidence and self worth are actually the same.

00:00:17.946 --> 00:00:22.750
Believe it or not, we get it mixed up, I used to work for Corporate and I did not know.

00:00:22.841 --> 00:00:27.054
That leaving was going to be one of the scariest decisions I've ever made.

00:00:27.161 --> 00:00:42.472
You can, you can keep on going all you want, but eventually, you know, you'll, you'll experience an identity crisis When we follow the plan of the universe, everything that the ego wants will eventually get taken care of.

00:00:45.871 --> 00:00:46.252
All right.

00:00:46.252 --> 00:00:47.942

Now, the theme of today's episode is around the challenges of self sabotage and self worth.

00:01:05.382 --> 00:01:09.012
Is your self worth sabotaging your success?

00:01:09.022 --> 00:01:13.441

Mackenzie McBride.

00:01:33.576 --> 00:01:34.777
Thank you for coming to the show.

00:01:34.867 --> 00:01:35.557
How's it going, man?

00:01:36.746 --> 00:01:37.647
Amazing, brother.

00:01:37.677 --> 00:01:39.246
I mean, it's great to be here.

00:01:39.246 --> 00:01:40.387
Thank you so much for having me.

you got some really cool stuff going on with between your business with Sage Cinematics, your, your coaching business, and then, um, public speaking.

00:01:52.977 --> 00:01:55.743
Let's get into uh, Your story.

00:01:55.754 --> 00:02:00.823
I want to get right into it What um, where did everything start for you?

00:02:01.403 --> 00:02:08.544
on your journey to becoming a Self worth coach more importantly self mastery like where did that journey start?

00:02:09.544 --> 00:02:13.174
Dude, it, it goes, it goes way, way back.

00:02:13.183 --> 00:02:16.824
So, I would, I would say to make it very short.

00:02:17.433 --> 00:02:23.044
I believe self mastery is, you know, aligning mind, body and soul.

00:02:23.174 --> 00:02:27.394
And when mind, body and souls in alignment, that is when we are at our finest.

00:02:28.433 --> 00:02:43.683
And, uh, My entire life, I could have thought that all of those things were in alignment, but what was actually in alignment was, I like to say, mind, body, and soul is also confidence, willpower, and self worth.

00:02:43.984 --> 00:02:44.544
Hmm.

00:02:45.299 --> 00:02:54.449
So I've always had the confidence and I've always had the willpower, but I didn't necessarily know that the self worth aspect was lacking.

00:02:55.028 --> 00:03:01.179
It wasn't until actually I started creating content on TikTok and quickly it went viral.

00:03:01.179 --> 00:03:05.188
Everything like shot it up to 250, 000 followers overnight.

00:03:05.938 --> 00:03:15.139
I'm getting all of these messages from people who are And the content was about spirituality, mental health, and all of this stuff.

00:03:15.179 --> 00:03:27.598
So just think about that, how that was going, but so I'm getting all of these messages from people I'm getting flown out to LA to create with all of these big creators and meet some fans and this, this whole thing.

00:03:27.598 --> 00:03:31.179
And something for me just wasn't feeling right.

00:03:31.459 --> 00:03:33.528
And at the time I thought.

00:03:33.963 --> 00:03:38.873
Well, maybe this doesn't feel right because this isn't necessarily what I'm supposed to be doing.

00:03:39.584 --> 00:03:43.524
But in actuality, it was one of the pillars that I had missing.

00:03:43.783 --> 00:03:45.163
I wasn't in alignment.

00:03:45.644 --> 00:03:47.253
I didn't have the self worth.

00:03:47.804 --> 00:03:58.033
I didn't feel worthy of receiving all of the approval that accolades the, I wasn't used to people showing me love.

00:03:58.033 --> 00:04:03.693
I've always been the kid that is striving to receive the love, but that's.

00:04:04.139 --> 00:04:08.788
Because in the back of my mind, I never felt worthy of having it, but I wanted to have it.

00:04:09.848 --> 00:04:18.788
And so I realized that people don't realize how much their lack of self worth is costing them.

00:04:19.478 --> 00:04:25.499
When we don't feel worthy, we sabotage all of the greatest things that we could possibly have in our lives.

00:04:25.959 --> 00:04:27.178
And I was this close.

00:04:27.379 --> 00:04:31.879
I quit creating content for like five, six years.

00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:39.269
It just blows my mind to think about how many things in my life I could have self sabotaged as well that I wasn't aware of.

00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:50.369
I've sabotaged career growth, relationships, you name it, whatever it was, because I simply didn't believe that I was worthy of, uh, anything great.

00:04:50.749 --> 00:05:02.379
That's so once I healed that, I made sure that I really wanted to make sure that nobody on this planet ever moment here where they don't feel worthy.

00:05:02.379 --> 00:05:05.028
It's one of the most powerful things that we never think about.

00:05:06.028 --> 00:05:09.548
It's interesting how you said you had confidence, but not self worth.

00:05:11.369 --> 00:05:12.908
How does that work?

00:05:13.579 --> 00:05:20.778
Cause for me, I feel they're very connected and it's hard to fathom one without the other.

00:05:20.809 --> 00:05:22.149
How, how does that work?

00:05:23.298 --> 00:05:26.939
So many people think confidence and self worth are actually the same.

00:05:26.949 --> 00:05:41.009
Believe it or not, we get it mixed up, which is exactly why I, I, I, which is exactly why I never had a hard time creating external success in my life, but I did have a hard time creating internal success.

00:05:41.819 --> 00:05:47.218
So confidence is the way that you see yourself and.

00:05:48.209 --> 00:05:54.108
In the way that you know that no matter what happens, I can overcome no matter what comes in my way.

00:05:54.379 --> 00:05:56.639
I'm confident in my ability to show up.

00:05:56.988 --> 00:05:59.379
I'm confident in my ability to get this done.

00:05:59.848 --> 00:06:05.119
I am confident in my ability to see things through push forward.

00:06:05.119 --> 00:06:06.379
No matter what happens.

00:06:06.718 --> 00:06:08.678
I know that I'm that type of person.

00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:10.889
I can get that done no matter what.

00:06:11.588 --> 00:06:13.369
It is detaching.

00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:15.178
Your.

00:06:16.244 --> 00:06:19.394
It is detaching your worth from outcomes.

00:06:20.043 --> 00:06:24.324
When you know that you'll overcome any outcome, that's confidence.

00:06:24.363 --> 00:06:31.204
It's like, no, I am awesome regardless of whatever outcome comes because I can get through it.

00:06:31.903 --> 00:06:32.963
So that's confidence.

00:06:32.973 --> 00:06:36.704
It's the ability to overcome anything, no matter what it is.

00:06:36.923 --> 00:06:43.774
And it's also seeing yourself in a way where you're like, I can truly get through anything.

00:06:44.728 --> 00:06:47.088
Self worth is do I feel like I'm worthy of it?

00:06:48.088 --> 00:06:51.838
It's a completely different thing to give you an example.

00:06:52.129 --> 00:06:56.259
I may be confident that I am an amazing content creator.

00:06:56.259 --> 00:07:01.478
I may be confident that I like I am really good at doing this thing.

00:07:02.108 --> 00:07:04.579
And even if I fail in this moment.

00:07:05.374 --> 00:07:07.913
I will overcome that and keep going to get better.

00:07:08.233 --> 00:07:14.744
But that doesn't mean that I necessarily feel worthy of the thing that I'm looking to achieve.

00:07:16.223 --> 00:07:16.343
It

00:07:16.413 --> 00:07:22.713
doesn't necessarily mean that I feel worthy of getting that.

00:07:23.644 --> 00:07:28.644
Especially when you come from a place where you previously lacked that thing.

00:07:30.108 --> 00:07:44.209
In my case, the thing that I lacked was, uh, I grew up in an environment where my parents didn't show as much, uh, attention or approval or, or support in my life.

00:07:45.298 --> 00:07:47.749
And so I, I always worked hard.

00:07:47.749 --> 00:07:53.918
I was confident in whatever I did, but actually getting the, Oh, my God, you're doing so good.

00:07:54.149 --> 00:07:55.079
That's so great.

00:07:55.189 --> 00:07:56.879
That was strange to me.

00:07:56.894 --> 00:08:04.713
I had the confidence to do whatever it was on the outside, but it, I never had the, I didn't have the self worth.

00:08:04.923 --> 00:08:07.043
I didn't think I was worthy of receiving it all.

00:08:08.064 --> 00:08:08.783
Interesting.

00:08:09.574 --> 00:08:17.184
I'm reflecting on myself and I'm like, uh, had a lot of, you can do it, you can do it.

00:08:17.644 --> 00:08:29.463
But then the opposite, which was, I didn't do it because I didn't want to I guess I saw myself bigger than the outcome, and so I didn't want to prove that wrong, so I didn't do it.

00:08:29.564 --> 00:08:31.853
I'm like, oh yeah, I could do that, but I'm not gonna.

00:08:32.764 --> 00:08:33.244
And so I didn't want to.

00:08:34.244 --> 00:08:35.854
That's, that's self worth, man.

00:08:36.854 --> 00:08:37.004
Yeah.

00:08:37.004 --> 00:08:37.524
That's it.

00:08:37.533 --> 00:08:39.254
So there was high self worth.

00:08:39.614 --> 00:08:41.234
But very little confidence.

00:08:41.283 --> 00:08:52.443
So I was coming from the exact opposite space, which is interesting to hear you see experience something completely opposite and makes total sense when, when, so that's, that's nuts.

00:08:52.453 --> 00:09:03.653
You started doing mental health or you, you started doing some interesting content on tech talk that blew up and then you're freaking getting flown out.

00:09:04.653 --> 00:09:12.134
To some event and I'm guessing that's the like a creator event because you like what was that all about?

00:09:14.083 --> 00:09:18.813
I, they just wanted to highlight some of the top creators that were on the platform at the time.

00:09:18.943 --> 00:09:19.073
Oh,

00:09:19.073 --> 00:09:19.984
so TikTok flew you

00:09:19.984 --> 00:09:20.224
out.

00:09:20.844 --> 00:09:21.624
Yes, correct.

00:09:21.964 --> 00:09:27.364
So it was, uh, it was a really big TikTok event, so it was just me and a bunch of other big creators at the time.

00:09:28.144 --> 00:09:33.024
And we, it was also like a, a, a red carpet experience.

00:09:33.024 --> 00:09:43.453
We got to meet, uh, people like Terry Cruz, Nick Cannon, uh, so many others, people I can't even remember right now, but we also got to, you know, create content with them at the time.

00:09:43.453 --> 00:09:48.413
Cause it was at a time where there wasn't like a lot of celebrities doing this at the, at the time.

00:09:49.083 --> 00:09:52.703
This was like, it was like new to the game when TikTok first like hit.

00:09:53.183 --> 00:09:56.683
So yeah, it was, it was, it was different.

00:09:57.958 --> 00:10:07.469
Okay so that happened and then you had a five year pause that's like What were you doing in that five years?

00:10:08.168 --> 00:10:10.948
You just stopped creating content and just did other stuff

00:10:11.149 --> 00:10:16.089
entirely I'm, i'm so happy like dude, we're about to get deep.

00:10:16.418 --> 00:10:30.749
Okay Uh, they say that your frequency is what you frequently see And the, the vibration that I was like vibrating at when it came to, uh, being in alignment was completely off.

00:10:30.749 --> 00:10:35.499
Like I was not in alignment with, uh, what I truly wanted to do.

00:10:36.479 --> 00:10:41.308
And so I didn't know that I didn't feel worthy and that's why I quit.

00:10:41.688 --> 00:10:45.688
I didn't realize that I didn't feel worthy until about two years ago.

00:10:46.479 --> 00:10:46.808
Hmm.

00:10:48.278 --> 00:10:50.639
During that five year gap.

00:10:50.918 --> 00:10:58.528
I, I was always into cinematography and filmmaking.

00:10:58.568 --> 00:11:03.519
It was what I was, I was using my skills as a cinematographer to go viral.

00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:06.908
At the time, nobody else on Tik TOK was using professional camera gear.

00:11:07.089 --> 00:11:08.438
Everybody was using their phone.

00:11:08.958 --> 00:11:14.928
So I was always into, uh, the art of storytelling, spirituality, filmmaking, all of that.

00:11:16.139 --> 00:11:20.028
I left being a content creator.

00:11:20.178 --> 00:11:21.019
I've stopped.

00:11:21.464 --> 00:11:22.984
Entirely put that on pause.

00:11:23.423 --> 00:11:28.244
And for five years, I went on to build a very successful media production company.

00:11:29.803 --> 00:11:39.214
And during this time, I had no idea why the media production company for five years was doing so well.

00:11:40.474 --> 00:11:42.374
It didn't make sense to me.

00:11:42.754 --> 00:11:45.354
I was like, well, why does this?

00:11:46.293 --> 00:11:49.423
How come this is, this is so beautiful.

00:11:50.144 --> 00:11:53.203
But the content creator thing wasn't hitting for me.

00:11:53.953 --> 00:12:00.833
It was so it wasn't actually until one day I woke up and was like, Oh, there it is.

00:12:00.854 --> 00:12:02.703
I don't know what it was.

00:12:02.724 --> 00:12:05.364
I, I don't know if I read something, man.

00:12:05.384 --> 00:12:16.043
I don't know if I was listening to something or if it was like deep within, within a meditation or I just one day just got hit with a wave of, of, of truth.

00:12:16.683 --> 00:12:18.244
And it was dude.

00:12:19.708 --> 00:12:29.828
The moment you receive any greatness in your life, you self sabotage it and you didn't feel worthy of the love.

00:12:30.568 --> 00:12:33.078
And that's why you self sabotaged it.

00:12:33.448 --> 00:12:42.719
You see, for anybody listening, if you, especially when it comes to entrepreneurship, spirituality, or when it comes to just living life on purpose.

00:12:44.149 --> 00:13:00.769
If mind, body, and soul, in other words, confidence, willpower, and self worth is not in alignment, you can only get, but so far in the, in the content creation world, I had the confidence in the willpower, but I didn't think that I was worthy.

00:13:00.918 --> 00:13:03.278
I had the confidence like, dude, I can crush this.

00:13:03.328 --> 00:13:04.548
Um, this is awesome.

00:13:04.759 --> 00:13:05.519
The willpower.

00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:08.208
Will I actually take the actionable steps to make it possible?

00:13:08.269 --> 00:13:08.698
Yes.

00:13:09.448 --> 00:13:11.158
Do I believe that I'm worthy of it?

00:13:11.649 --> 00:13:12.208
Whoa.

00:13:12.948 --> 00:13:20.458
I didn't, but the media production company did so well because I never had a wound around money.

00:13:21.548 --> 00:13:22.869
So I have the confidence.

00:13:23.943 --> 00:13:24.903
That dude.

00:13:25.163 --> 00:13:25.524
Okay.

00:13:25.594 --> 00:13:26.854
I'm a great cinematographer.

00:13:26.854 --> 00:13:28.234
I've done this before.

00:13:28.234 --> 00:13:33.104
I'm pretty sure that whatever situation I can show up, how I need to also have the willpower.

00:13:34.004 --> 00:13:36.693
I, I, I willing to walk the walk.

00:13:36.693 --> 00:13:38.453
I'm willing to put in the actionable steps.

00:13:38.504 --> 00:13:39.183
I'll do that.

00:13:39.673 --> 00:13:42.384
And do I believe that I'm worthy of money?

00:13:42.583 --> 00:13:44.663
She's like, yes, I do.

00:13:45.313 --> 00:13:47.203
So I never had a problem with that.

00:13:47.714 --> 00:13:54.754
And, and when I realized that it was, it was, Whoa, We do not receive in life that which we desire.

00:13:54.933 --> 00:14:02.274
We only receive that which, which we feel we are equal to the frequency of, and, and the universe always says yes.

00:14:03.323 --> 00:14:10.864
So if you say no, and I said no to my own worthiness, that's where the self sabotage happens.

00:14:11.864 --> 00:14:12.724
I like how you're like,

00:14:13.364 --> 00:14:13.683
huh?

00:14:14.183 --> 00:14:14.754
No, I'm sorry.

00:14:14.754 --> 00:14:15.004
Yes.

00:14:15.004 --> 00:14:15.203
Yes.

00:14:15.203 --> 00:14:15.644
Go ahead.

00:14:15.884 --> 00:14:16.134
I don't know.

00:14:16.183 --> 00:14:18.644
I was going to, I'm just responding to what you said.

00:14:18.644 --> 00:14:23.094
Um, You were saying like, I have no problem accepting the money.

00:14:24.803 --> 00:14:26.864
And I, I don't hear that as often.

00:14:27.134 --> 00:14:28.443
We, I joke around.

00:14:28.913 --> 00:14:29.953
Yeah, yeah, I'll take it.

00:14:29.953 --> 00:14:35.114
But at the end of the day, like that has been my thing where accepting the money, it was like, no, no, no.

00:14:35.854 --> 00:14:37.394
What did I do to deserve?

00:14:38.114 --> 00:14:41.063
Because I'm not used to this amount.

00:14:41.923 --> 00:14:45.783
And then at the same time, you put it pretty well.

00:14:45.813 --> 00:14:46.354
Yes.

00:14:47.394 --> 00:14:49.724
Universe always says yes.

00:14:49.724 --> 00:14:54.134
And, if you don't deserve it, you don't deserve it.

00:14:54.134 --> 00:14:56.063
If you do deserve it, you do.

00:14:57.644 --> 00:14:58.014
Right?

00:14:59.283 --> 00:14:59.854
I like it.

00:15:00.719 --> 00:15:02.219
So, absolutely.

00:15:02.918 --> 00:15:06.438
And so you just was like, I'm going to do tech talk.

00:15:06.828 --> 00:15:08.948
And then you got all this attention.

00:15:09.129 --> 00:15:10.639
And then you're like, too much.

00:15:10.688 --> 00:15:11.609
I don't deserve this.

00:15:11.818 --> 00:15:13.629
Let me just go to what I'm used to.

00:15:13.729 --> 00:15:17.958
And you went straight into cinematography and that blew up.

00:15:19.028 --> 00:15:21.078
But now you're self reflecting.

00:15:21.078 --> 00:15:23.729
Like, wow, I had no problem with this now.

00:15:24.448 --> 00:15:25.899
What happened with the other thing?

00:15:26.354 --> 00:15:31.403
Like, were you questioning it because you wanted to go back into content creation?

00:15:31.413 --> 00:15:35.293
Like, was cinematography getting a little boring and you wanted to like, go to the next level?

00:15:35.303 --> 00:15:37.033
Like, why were you questioning yourself?

00:15:37.043 --> 00:15:38.594
Cause you already have something that's good.

00:15:39.594 --> 00:15:40.833
I'm so happy that you asked.

00:15:41.004 --> 00:15:45.323
So I, I, I wanna, I wanna mention this, this point.

00:15:46.344 --> 00:16:00.453
I didn't realize that I wasn't, I, I, the moment I realized why I ran away from the, The love attention and approval and, and the, Oh, you're like, this guy is amazing.

00:16:01.313 --> 00:16:07.933
I think, I think I remember it was one day I was at probably at like a brand or business shoe or shooting a wedding or something.

00:16:08.104 --> 00:16:09.543
And I was like, Oh my God.

00:16:10.448 --> 00:16:11.828
I was so afraid of this.

00:16:11.849 --> 00:16:17.808
I went from being in front of the camera to being behind the camera.

00:16:17.938 --> 00:16:20.938
Like I ran away from the spotlight so hard.

00:16:20.938 --> 00:16:26.739
I did a complete three 60 and the thing that was like killing me inside.

00:16:27.754 --> 00:16:36.524
I'd when it came to, uh, the, the media production company was, I felt like source was missing.

00:16:36.604 --> 00:16:38.024
I felt like creation.

00:16:38.033 --> 00:16:39.783
God was completely missing.

00:16:40.274 --> 00:16:41.033
It was gone.

00:16:41.043 --> 00:16:46.774
And it was the thing that was that lit me up inside was completely gone.

00:16:47.293 --> 00:16:49.604
It just felt wrong.

00:16:49.614 --> 00:16:56.524
It felt like all the, all the gifts that I have, all the talents that I have, the, the natural.

00:16:57.203 --> 00:17:04.153
Love and to be able to speak with somebody and walk inside of a room and light up the energy and influence the energy in the room was gone.

00:17:04.473 --> 00:17:06.763
Now I'm the guy who walks inside of a place.

00:17:07.163 --> 00:17:13.554
And instead of telling my story and uplifting people's lives and their spirit with love and stories.

00:17:14.544 --> 00:17:18.683
I'm now recording stories for other people.

00:17:20.199 --> 00:17:30.648
I, I didn't believe I was worthy so much that I'm now walking around with a camera, putting everybody else in the spotlight and I'm behind.

00:17:30.929 --> 00:17:32.128
It blew my mind.

00:17:33.128 --> 00:17:33.888
Fireworks.

00:17:33.888 --> 00:17:34.269
Yes.

00:17:34.749 --> 00:17:38.798
I said fireworks because like the, the imagery just did a whole bunch of fireworks.

00:17:38.939 --> 00:17:39.769
He was saying that.

00:17:40.769 --> 00:17:41.578
Oh my gosh.

00:17:41.628 --> 00:17:42.148
It's good time.

00:17:42.989 --> 00:17:44.499
It truly blew my mind, man.

00:17:44.528 --> 00:18:16.578
And, uh, so I had to come back to creating content and changing people's lives because I realized the thing that made me want to come back to creating content and doing what lights me up on the inside is that I realized that if I stayed in the media production company, which I still own the company, but I do some stuff here and there, I realized that if I stayed in it, 100%, the only thing that I would do is postpone my spiritual progression.

00:18:17.489 --> 00:18:19.699
This was something that I needed to heal.

00:18:20.338 --> 00:18:22.648
This was something that I needed to fix.

00:18:23.378 --> 00:18:38.479
I couldn't stay behind a camera my entire life, have the confidence, willpower and the self worth of money, but not feel like I'm worthy of love, but not feel like I'm worthy of changing people's lives, not worthy of inspiring.

00:18:39.068 --> 00:18:43.568
I used to get messages all the time from people who would tell me that I changed their lives.

00:18:43.739 --> 00:18:48.259
And now I'm over here doing something that is, I feel like is destroying mine.

00:18:48.858 --> 00:18:50.598
It was, bro.

00:18:51.858 --> 00:19:02.038
And, and I, like, it's so crazy that I went from changing people's lives to being behind a camera and afraid of doing that.

00:19:02.669 --> 00:19:12.068
I don't even know, like, if I could speak to anybody, whoever, everybody podcast, if you struggle with self worth, I'm telling you.

00:19:12.864 --> 00:19:24.584
It shows up in ways that you might not even notice because it's it's definitely deep work many of us Go our entire lives without noticing that we struggle with self worth in some particular area in our lives

00:19:25.653 --> 00:20:01.989
Yeah, yeah It it's it's interesting how you said That you're behind the camera and I think a lot of people are behind the camera and uh Whether you create content for someone else Or behind the camera air quotes in a job, a project where you're building someone else's home, you're building someone else's life and acquiring self work from building someone else up could be detrimental to your self worth in my opinion.

00:20:01.999 --> 00:20:02.778
And I see.

00:20:03.733 --> 00:20:06.834
Something that could be a natural progression for someone like that.

00:20:06.834 --> 00:20:08.243
You tell me what your thoughts are.

00:20:08.243 --> 00:20:22.963
I see the head nods, but tell me your thoughts where it could be a, uh, one of those things where maybe that's just a stage of self reflection of understanding what you're capable of.

00:20:23.263 --> 00:20:30.973
And at the same time, I think you would get that itch to quote unquote, be in front of the camera.

00:20:31.499 --> 00:20:31.828
right?

00:20:31.858 --> 00:20:36.499
Like you, you, you become proficient at what you decided to do.

00:20:36.949 --> 00:20:42.788
And maybe that itch comes when it's time for you to pass on that knowledge and be the person that other people look up to.

00:20:43.398 --> 00:20:45.939
I think that is what happened to you.

00:20:45.939 --> 00:20:55.989
You, you got all this experience and then you had, you have and have built a successful media company and you had that itch.

00:20:56.249 --> 00:21:00.608
And then you started seeing, you know what, what I have a value and now you're.

00:21:01.493 --> 00:21:02.663
Giving a lot of value.

00:21:02.673 --> 00:21:05.743
You're like you said, you're changing lives and that's like an interesting thing.

00:21:05.743 --> 00:21:25.374
What do you, what are your thoughts on, on people who might be in that situation where they're like, just before where you were, where they're like, whether you're, I don't want to say stuck at your job, but let's say you're just, you've been there for a while and you're feeling like there's something else you should do, or you started a project that you have a business.

00:21:25.384 --> 00:21:26.443
And like I said, you're.

00:21:26.804 --> 00:21:29.273
You're building up someone's life, your support.

00:21:29.284 --> 00:21:30.483
You're in that support role.

00:21:30.653 --> 00:21:32.574
You can pay for that, but you're in that support role.

00:21:32.854 --> 00:21:39.213
Do you feel that like are like what advice do you have for someone that might feel that itch?

00:21:39.233 --> 00:21:40.713
What does that feel like?

00:21:40.933 --> 00:21:45.683
What are some things that you can do to build yourself worth to get to that next step?

00:21:45.723 --> 00:21:53.084
If you should you want to start taking action on being the person that people look up to, to help better other people?

00:21:53.713 --> 00:21:55.574
Yes, that's a really great question.

00:21:55.584 --> 00:21:56.374
Thank you for asking that.

00:21:57.374 --> 00:22:04.644
I feel like, first off, there is nothing wrong with, you know, building up somebody else's thing.

00:22:05.644 --> 00:22:16.884
Cause I mean, when we talk about self worth, there are some people who truly don't desire to do these, you know, huge grand things that there are people who truly don't desire to do that.

00:22:17.304 --> 00:22:24.334
So I would, I would, cause you know, there is an abundance of people who are like, Oh, entrepreneurship sounds so awesome.

00:22:24.334 --> 00:22:25.374
Like, I really want to do that.

00:22:25.374 --> 00:22:28.903
And it's like, you haven't like, unless it's in you.

00:22:29.548 --> 00:22:31.159
And you're not just trying it out.

00:22:32.239 --> 00:22:35.128
You know, if it's in you, then you don't really have a choice.

00:22:35.128 --> 00:22:40.169
I was born into a family of entrepreneurs and it's the only way of life that I understand.

00:22:40.169 --> 00:22:44.858
So to, you know, not work a nine to five and work 24 seven, it's the only thing I know.

00:22:44.878 --> 00:22:49.298
I feel like working a nine to five is, is too easy.

00:22:49.328 --> 00:22:52.989
I clock in, I clock out and I'm not worried about what's happening in the business.

00:22:52.989 --> 00:22:53.818
It's not my business.

00:22:55.078 --> 00:23:13.364
But if, if you are somebody who are, who's in that spot, Speaking to the entrepreneur who maybe is in that nine to five and you want to do something else that you have this passion, you have this goal and it's, and it's sitting on your heart, you know, exactly what you want.

00:23:13.364 --> 00:23:15.003
You know exactly how to do it.

00:23:16.003 --> 00:23:19.473
I would just say, just take that first step.

00:23:19.473 --> 00:23:27.074
It's it's, there's nothing more difficult than taking the first step, because if you're in a nine to five right now.

00:23:27.544 --> 00:23:40.523
The truth is you got there because of a belief there was some belief that you had that somehow this was more safe, or you got there because you truly didn't believe that entrepreneurship was an option.

00:23:41.604 --> 00:23:43.634
No, you didn't know that it was an option at all.

00:23:44.324 --> 00:23:49.084
And so to step into that world, it's, it's completely scary.

00:23:49.084 --> 00:23:51.503
I want to be the 1st to say, I used to work for apple.

00:23:52.144 --> 00:23:54.584
Corporate and I did not know.

00:23:55.409 --> 00:24:00.598
That leaving Apple was going to be one of the scariest decisions I've ever made.

00:24:02.189 --> 00:24:11.584
It, it was so scared for me that the first day that I walked out, I was just like, I'm not doing this anymore.

00:24:11.923 --> 00:24:13.503
I just walked straight out, man.

00:24:14.064 --> 00:24:15.933
And for the first two weeks,

00:24:16.223 --> 00:24:17.243
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:24:17.324 --> 00:24:18.973
Why did you say F this?

00:24:19.054 --> 00:24:21.163
What happened that you were like, I'm done.

00:24:21.653 --> 00:24:22.223
I need to know

00:24:23.673 --> 00:24:34.233
my, I was, I want to say about 20.

00:24:35.344 --> 00:24:37.913
I was about 20 years old or 21.

00:24:39.564 --> 00:24:51.933
My aunt had passed away and she was the only thing that I could think about while I was at work for a couple days.

00:24:52.663 --> 00:24:55.463
And you see, I really want to let this land for everybody.

00:24:56.243 --> 00:24:58.354
I know we're all spiritual to the bone.

00:24:58.354 --> 00:24:59.064
I know that we're all.

00:24:59.983 --> 00:25:01.364
And so my, I was.

00:25:03.019 --> 00:25:10.989
My, I'm like the only really hardcore, uh, universe frequency energy person in my family.

00:25:10.989 --> 00:25:24.818
And, you know, when my aunt passed away, I remember being in the room with her and I remember, you know, I had my hands on her hands and I remember feeling her energy.

00:25:25.648 --> 00:25:29.959
And then randomly, everything just got cold.

00:25:30.973 --> 00:25:41.723
And when that happened, I felt this weird feeling as if, you know, this is her body, but she's no longer in here.

00:25:41.933 --> 00:25:46.243
While I was touching her hands, I felt the life force in her.

00:25:46.243 --> 00:25:47.443
Like I felt her.

00:25:48.824 --> 00:25:52.903
And then the next second, I just, I don't know what it was.

00:25:52.903 --> 00:25:57.903
I just felt that even though that this is her body, it's laying here right in front of me.

00:25:59.723 --> 00:26:00.713
She's not there anymore.

00:26:00.723 --> 00:26:02.253
She just left and I felt it.

00:26:03.124 --> 00:26:03.433
Wow.

00:26:03.513 --> 00:26:10.594
And, and then the doctors walked, walks in and my, my grandmother is crying.

00:26:11.673 --> 00:26:21.673
Uh, she was crying the entire time, but I just looked at the doctors and they just gave me this nod and they didn't even have to tell me what it's, what just happened.

00:26:21.784 --> 00:26:23.804
I was like, Oh yeah, I know.

00:26:24.743 --> 00:26:27.463
And it was in that moment for the next week or so.

00:26:27.663 --> 00:26:35.604
The only thing that I could think about was how life isn't promised to any of us.

00:26:36.294 --> 00:26:38.094
Death is the inevitable.

00:26:38.413 --> 00:26:42.933
It doesn't matter how much we want to ignore it or not talk about it.

00:26:43.354 --> 00:26:45.874
And prior to this experience, I want to throw this in.

00:26:47.868 --> 00:26:50.409
You know, we all know that people die.

00:26:50.659 --> 00:26:56.489
We know that people die, but it's not something that most people consciously think about on a daily basis.

00:26:57.528 --> 00:27:00.858
I was always one of those kids that thought about death on a daily basis.

00:27:00.858 --> 00:27:04.118
I think a lot of us spiritual people, we tend to do that.

00:27:04.588 --> 00:27:09.848
But up until this point, I've never had somebody close to me or in my personal life.

00:27:10.409 --> 00:27:11.999
Or my family like that.

00:27:11.999 --> 00:27:12.868
I've known die.

00:27:13.348 --> 00:27:19.439
You hear that, you know, people and your family members that you've probably never met, you've heard they passed away and you're like, Oh, that's sad.

00:27:19.439 --> 00:27:29.919
But I didn't really know this, this person, but she was the first person that I knew that actually, uh, that actually died.

00:27:31.159 --> 00:27:37.618
And if it wasn't for her, I don't think I've ever would have, would have made the switch.

00:27:37.618 --> 00:27:37.929
I just.

00:27:38.929 --> 00:28:02.209
The thought that came to my head when I walked out was if death isn't even really a thing and the spirit lives on after we've, we've quote unquote left this vessel, if we are spiritual, infinite divine beings living in a temporary human experience, if that's the case, what do I have to fear while I'm in this vehicle?

00:28:02.209 --> 00:28:06.058
I'm just going to do it.

00:28:07.973 --> 00:28:23.094
And, uh, so yeah, I, I, I truly think that for anybody in that position, if you really have something on your heart, if it's sitting there, I want you to know that it's not sitting there for no reason.

00:28:23.753 --> 00:28:30.644
Sometimes you may try that thing out and it may not be it, or maybe it's, maybe it's something else.

00:28:30.983 --> 00:28:35.284
Who knows, but you have to just, you have to explore that feeling.

00:28:35.844 --> 00:28:48.134
You have to say yes to that, because the more you say no to the feelings that are, that are flowing within you, uh, the more our body lose, like, it lose trust within us.

00:28:48.743 --> 00:28:49.753
Ooh, interesting.

00:28:50.963 --> 00:28:56.243
When your body is feeling this emotion, it trusts you to explore it.

00:28:57.834 --> 00:29:02.564
And when you don't explore those feelings, you, you, you disconnect from yourself.

00:29:04.078 --> 00:29:05.699
In ways we don't even understand.

00:29:06.259 --> 00:29:22.269
You're making me think about something that you, you're tying into where one, yeah, when something comes to you and you have that urge to do something more or take action, what is it that you said?

00:29:22.288 --> 00:29:25.513
That you start to lose trust in yourself?

00:29:25.513 --> 00:29:26.278
What did you say?

00:29:26.278 --> 00:29:26.858
Yes,

00:29:27.239 --> 00:29:27.858
yes.

00:29:28.019 --> 00:29:28.378
Right?

00:29:28.618 --> 00:29:29.148
Your body

00:29:29.148 --> 00:29:31.038
will lose trust within you, absolutely.

00:29:31.419 --> 00:29:37.759
And that is being incongruent with yourself, you start to separate from yourself.

00:29:37.929 --> 00:29:39.898
And I think, uh, I don't know what, what are your thoughts?

00:29:39.898 --> 00:29:42.019
Is that where a lot of burnout comes from?

00:29:42.118 --> 00:29:43.078
Just pushing on?

00:29:44.209 --> 00:29:45.278
Oh, absolutely.

00:29:45.828 --> 00:29:46.249
Dude.

00:29:46.388 --> 00:29:46.669
Dude.

00:29:46.679 --> 00:29:47.929
Jim Carrey said it best.

00:29:47.929 --> 00:29:57.719
He said, depression is, he said, depression is the body saying, F you, I don't want to do this anymore.

00:29:58.523 --> 00:30:07.483
Depressed is be is your body needing deep rest from playing this character that it doesn't want to play anymore.

00:30:08.183 --> 00:30:08.433
Yeah.

00:30:09.044 --> 00:30:21.769
And so, You can, you can keep on going all you want, but eventually, you know, you'll, you'll experience an identity crisis every time.

00:30:21.778 --> 00:30:25.028
And I'm not saying that people need to act upon every emotion.

00:30:25.038 --> 00:30:28.229
You need to, you know, be irrational and not have emotional intelligence.

00:30:28.229 --> 00:30:29.338
I'm not saying that at all.

00:30:29.838 --> 00:30:38.528
What I'm actually saying is when you have something in you and it's like this fiery energy, and it's, you feel it.

00:30:40.344 --> 00:30:52.913
You cannot and you must not say no, because when you do the body or soul will lose trust within you to do whatever it takes.

00:30:53.973 --> 00:30:57.304
You'll experience a huge disconnect.

00:30:57.673 --> 00:31:05.503
And so let's just say that you, you don't follow the callings and the energies that are flowing within you.

00:31:06.423 --> 00:31:08.094
What do you think is going to happen?

00:31:08.973 --> 00:31:16.183
When you start to gather more information about that business or the entrepreneurial journey that made that you start to learn.

00:31:16.183 --> 00:31:17.334
Hey, this is possible.

00:31:17.884 --> 00:31:19.163
I'm going to these events.

00:31:19.213 --> 00:31:20.284
I'm reading these books.

00:31:20.334 --> 00:31:21.763
I'm listening to these podcasts.

00:31:21.933 --> 00:31:24.624
I'm starting to think that this is possible.

00:31:24.624 --> 00:31:26.723
I'm starting to feel like this is possible.

00:31:27.804 --> 00:31:32.304
But you've already had the body had the soul lose trust within you.

00:31:32.663 --> 00:31:33.314
Hey, come on.

00:31:33.314 --> 00:31:37.243
Let's conjure up the confidence in the willpower to go do this thing.

00:31:38.243 --> 00:31:42.663
No, you've already allowed the soul to lose trust within you.

00:31:42.663 --> 00:31:48.544
It's like, Hey, when we felt this way, we thought that we were supposed to do this and you said no.

00:31:49.423 --> 00:31:52.804
So why should we trust the feelings you told us not to?

00:31:53.804 --> 00:32:03.594
You're using emotions to make us follow this plan, but it was the very emotions that we gave you to tell you to go do this thing.

00:32:04.148 --> 00:32:08.929
You told us that you eat, bro, I'm getting, I'm, I'm feeling it, man.

00:32:09.548 --> 00:32:10.778
Inner battle, right?

00:32:11.328 --> 00:32:12.169
Yes, man.

00:32:12.628 --> 00:32:22.638
There's, so there's another thing that you reminded me of, you know, how in the past we used to invent a lot more things over the past years, right?

00:32:23.499 --> 00:32:38.253
Have you heard of the, the understanding of how, you know, I'm trying to remember like the specific invention, but I think like the light bulb or the telegram, it was invented in multiple places at the same time.

00:32:39.443 --> 00:32:46.473
And the urge to do something is, is possibly something bigger than you.

00:32:47.134 --> 00:32:53.294
And you are, that idea is that idea is the seed and you are fertile ground.

00:32:53.794 --> 00:32:56.084
It's your choice what you want to do.

00:32:56.463 --> 00:33:02.733
And as you question yourself, the fertile ground gets drier, right?

00:33:03.384 --> 00:33:08.554
Or if you get too excited but you have self doubt, you might overwater yourself.

00:33:09.023 --> 00:33:33.443
So it's one of those things where like self mastery comes into play, presence comes into play, self worth, and you tell me how do you make sure your quote unquote soil is continue, continuous to be good for that idea so that you can go and just crush it.

00:33:34.443 --> 00:33:53.499
I, I just asked myself a question and it's, am I living for the evolution of Souls, humanity, am I, am I living out the purpose that my soul came here to do?

00:33:54.709 --> 00:34:00.848
Or am I entangled within the idiosyncrasies and the psychological dramas of man?

00:34:02.838 --> 00:34:09.829
And again, when I think back to, we are not these, these bodies.

00:34:09.829 --> 00:34:10.239
We are.

00:34:11.239 --> 00:34:13.199
We are all connected.

00:34:13.208 --> 00:34:14.179
We are all one.

00:34:14.278 --> 00:34:17.628
I just stay on that path.

00:34:18.628 --> 00:34:23.429
I just, I just really keep reconnecting back with.

00:34:24.429 --> 00:34:26.349
What does source want me to do?

00:34:27.349 --> 00:34:30.148
What does the universe want me to do?

00:34:32.139 --> 00:34:33.809
I believe that when we.

00:34:35.114 --> 00:34:43.014
When we follow the plan of the universe, everything that the ego wants will eventually get taken care of.

00:34:44.414 --> 00:34:44.873
I agree.

00:34:46.434 --> 00:34:53.204
And, and I, and I think that we suffer when the ego is only, when we only focus.

00:34:53.648 --> 00:35:01.148
On the ego when we only focus on, uh, what's within our external reality, the, the three dimensional reality.

00:35:01.148 --> 00:35:12.009
When we, when we don't tap into the quantum and connect with source, we, we build resistance and that's why it gets all dried up.

00:35:12.009 --> 00:35:19.483
We, we try to do things that, you know, Wasn't in the plan because we think that we need to dominate.

00:35:19.514 --> 00:35:21.014
We think that we need to crush it.

00:35:21.034 --> 00:35:25.983
We think that we need to do things the way that we want it to.

00:35:26.574 --> 00:35:43.114
But when we take a step back and we just say, Hey, am I doing this to fulfill ego or am I doing this to be a part of something bigger, something greater, then I think that I will, I will, I will.

00:35:43.344 --> 00:35:44.074
Let me just say this.

00:35:44.094 --> 00:35:48.914
I believe that doing that is definitely the harder choice for sure.

00:35:49.353 --> 00:35:50.934
It's not the easier choice.

00:35:50.963 --> 00:35:55.664
It is easier to say, well, I don't want to do this.

00:35:55.704 --> 00:35:57.253
I just opened up this business.

00:35:57.293 --> 00:35:58.653
Nobody's buying right now.

00:35:58.684 --> 00:36:00.664
I just came on this stage.

00:36:00.673 --> 00:36:01.003
Nope.

00:36:01.034 --> 00:36:02.813
But do I, do I feel like people's listening?

00:36:02.813 --> 00:36:04.114
I just launched that podcast.

00:36:04.114 --> 00:36:05.233
I got four listeners.

00:36:05.713 --> 00:36:06.094
It's, it's.

00:36:07.153 --> 00:36:12.643
it's easier to do something where you feel like I'm getting instant gratification.

00:36:13.304 --> 00:36:20.264
And the instant gratification is the, the things that, that we materialize in our three dimensional reality.

00:36:20.264 --> 00:36:27.554
But it is more difficult to follow source because I know you've, you've heard of this quote.

00:36:27.793 --> 00:36:33.434
It's, uh, it's the willingness to plant a tree that, you know, that you will never be able to sit under.

00:36:33.784 --> 00:36:34.094
Ooh.

00:36:36.074 --> 00:36:42.414
And it's like, Oh my God, do I, but I know I want to sit under a tree.

00:36:43.543 --> 00:36:45.054
I want to sit under the tree.

00:36:45.094 --> 00:36:48.224
So it's, it's, it's, it's tough.

00:36:48.284 --> 00:36:51.744
You know, it's self mastery is that inner battle.

00:36:51.784 --> 00:36:59.983
It is, well, this is saying this, and this is saying this, and it's like, it is, it is a lot more tough.

00:37:00.003 --> 00:37:00.313
But.

00:37:00.958 --> 00:37:01.699
That's what I do.

00:37:01.699 --> 00:37:07.528
I always connect back with source and I say, uh, at the end of my life, what would I be more proud of?

00:37:07.748 --> 00:37:11.478
The impact that I left for the things that I've accumulated.

00:37:11.969 --> 00:37:13.228
And that's grounding right there.

00:37:13.268 --> 00:37:14.458
That's, that's humbling.

00:37:14.568 --> 00:37:17.378
That'll, that'll humble your ego for sure.

00:37:18.059 --> 00:37:25.358
So, so we're, you quit Apple and now you're taking that leap of faith.

00:37:26.329 --> 00:37:27.798
What happens next?

00:37:28.798 --> 00:37:29.619
It was scary.

00:37:29.739 --> 00:37:35.798
Uh, but I, I saw into the future.

00:37:35.798 --> 00:37:41.219
More of what was actually happening, even though it was, it was frightening.

00:37:41.219 --> 00:37:45.858
I, I, I knew where I was going and I knew where I wanted to be.

00:37:46.429 --> 00:37:52.173
It was just that, um, My investment was still tangled up in the nine to five.

00:37:52.474 --> 00:38:19.369
My investment was still tangled up in something that I thought was practical so It was it was definitely difficult leaving but I leave Apple And everybody knew me as the spiritual vegan environmentalist, the guy that's like, I, I wear like these psychedelic headbands to work.

00:38:19.369 --> 00:38:22.349
And I say all of these, uh, hippie things.

00:38:22.349 --> 00:38:32.358
Like I look, I'm talking to my employees, like sweet bubbles, like that was my, if you ask anybody, anybody at Apple, dude, I would just walk around.

00:38:32.389 --> 00:38:35.869
Somebody would say something like, Hey, and I'd be like, Dude, sweet bubbles.

00:38:37.528 --> 00:38:39.009
I just made it up, dude.

00:38:39.018 --> 00:38:39.918
It was crazy.

00:38:40.349 --> 00:38:46.628
But, um, it was, it was a, it was a huge shift.

00:38:46.648 --> 00:38:56.489
It was time to start implementing some of the things that I felt was a little bit more practical, uh, for, for my soul.

00:38:57.628 --> 00:39:00.898
I came across this book called the mastery of love.

00:39:00.929 --> 00:39:02.518
I'm not sure if you're familiar, but.

00:39:03.119 --> 00:39:06.659
Dude, it's one of my favorite books is so powerful.

00:39:06.679 --> 00:39:09.509
I probably read that book about 10 times a year alone.

00:39:09.509 --> 00:39:21.458
But I, one day when I, I don't know when it was, I would, I would probably say about a month after quitting deep into this book.

00:39:23.108 --> 00:39:28.728
And I go outside, I look up at the stars, I'm a huge stargazer.

00:39:28.728 --> 00:39:29.858
I don't know what it is when I.

00:39:30.253 --> 00:39:31.773
the stars.

00:39:31.773 --> 00:39:33.824
I feel this flutter in my heart.

00:39:33.833 --> 00:39:38.434
Like there's a string that's being pulled on on my heart from from the stars above.

00:39:38.434 --> 00:39:39.543
It just feels so great.

00:39:40.313 --> 00:39:41.304
And I'm without drugs.

00:39:41.753 --> 00:39:42.643
This is without drugs.

00:39:42.664 --> 00:39:43.554
Oh, I'm okay, dude.

00:39:43.724 --> 00:39:54.293
This is something that I want to tell you to because I am dude, there is like this realm of like euphoric bliss that is filled with excess ecstasy without ecstasy.

00:39:54.474 --> 00:39:55.393
Like it's so weird.

00:39:55.393 --> 00:40:01.123
I Tap into this love that, that usually people are like, Oh, I experienced that on shrooms.

00:40:01.523 --> 00:40:03.523
I, I tell I'm high off life.

00:40:03.764 --> 00:40:07.003
I am so like, dude, dude, don't get me wrong someday.

00:40:07.003 --> 00:40:14.293
I would love to try something like a psilocybin or an ayahuasca, but I'm so afraid of that because I think that.

00:40:15.338 --> 00:40:16.559
I'm not afraid of it.

00:40:16.608 --> 00:40:21.898
I just feel like I'm so connected is, am I, is my soul going to leave when I get on this thing?

00:40:22.059 --> 00:40:23.369
I'm not going to come back.

00:40:23.829 --> 00:40:25.588
I already feel like this.

00:40:25.818 --> 00:40:28.938
I already feel high off of life every day.

00:40:28.938 --> 00:40:31.378
What is this thing going to do to me?

00:40:31.639 --> 00:40:33.278
Like that's, so,

00:40:33.608 --> 00:40:40.608
uh, I give you a jet pack and you're going to just have a hundred or zero and you got two buttons and you're just going to be gone,

00:40:40.619 --> 00:40:41.398
bro.

00:40:41.559 --> 00:40:42.289
That's my thought.

00:40:42.329 --> 00:40:43.128
I'm in the same boat.

00:40:43.603 --> 00:40:45.454
Well, I believe it, man.

00:40:45.983 --> 00:40:46.693
Yesterday.

00:40:46.693 --> 00:40:52.083
Like I made, I made my cup of tea and my fiance sitting right here at the desk.

00:40:52.114 --> 00:40:57.483
She's editing one of my videos while I'm, first of all, she started editing my videos with me about two days ago.

00:40:58.543 --> 00:41:02.534
It's been so great to have some help, dude.

00:41:02.983 --> 00:41:05.684
I, this is, this is how I am, dude.

00:41:06.454 --> 00:41:08.264
I've been drinking tea every single day.

00:41:08.264 --> 00:41:09.903
I have like, I have like 10 cups.

00:41:09.903 --> 00:41:11.664
It's unhealthy, I know, I don't care, I love my life.

00:41:11.914 --> 00:41:15.764
I have about 10 cups of tea every single day.

00:41:16.103 --> 00:41:21.514
And about the 6th cup of tea, I'm like pouring the water in.

00:41:21.664 --> 00:41:27.563
And as the tea's steeping, I just burst out into this uncontrollable laughter.

00:41:27.603 --> 00:41:37.208
And she's, and she's staring at me like, Like you are right and I'm like, I don't know what it is, but I, I got so much love of me right now, dude.

00:41:37.719 --> 00:41:44.268
Um, and, and it's so funny because people will look at me like, I bet some people probably think, is he on something?

00:41:44.278 --> 00:41:46.369
Dude, I'm, I'm too scared to touch anything.

00:41:46.369 --> 00:41:50.068
Like the hardest thing I've ever touched is, is like wine and that's it.

00:41:50.108 --> 00:41:54.059
But so yeah, I, I'm, I'm after reading the book of mastery.

00:41:54.338 --> 00:41:55.009
I have.

00:41:55.849 --> 00:42:02.639
I go outside because I, I, the way that I'm connected when I look at the stars, I don't know what it is.

00:42:02.768 --> 00:42:03.608
It's just deep.

00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:09.528
And I got filled with so much love in me more than I could ever possibly imagine.

00:42:09.929 --> 00:42:11.568
And then this thought came to my head.

00:42:11.588 --> 00:42:18.759
I don't know why this thought came to my head, but it felt like a huge spiritual awakening.

00:42:18.809 --> 00:42:25.099
As I'm looking at the stars, I go, what the wait a minute.

00:42:26.699 --> 00:42:34.208
What is it that is looking through the eyes that I have right now?

00:42:35.358 --> 00:42:36.619
That's looking at the sky.

00:42:37.068 --> 00:42:38.018
Like, wait a minute.

00:42:39.259 --> 00:42:42.849
So I am not this body.

00:42:43.539 --> 00:42:54.273
I am whatever source is inside of me looking through these eyes, like I can't, dude.

00:42:54.324 --> 00:42:55.103
Oh my God.

00:42:55.114 --> 00:42:55.514
It totally

00:42:55.623 --> 00:43:01.414
sounds like you took a huge, like, that's, that, that sounds like you were on trial,

00:43:03.284 --> 00:43:03.514
bro.

00:43:04.123 --> 00:43:04.884
I know

00:43:05.884 --> 00:43:17.478
it's almost like you're like, it's almost like you had an out of body experience as if you're using your body as a telescope and you're like, Like, that's how I see you looking at yourself.

00:43:17.489 --> 00:43:17.869
Yes.

00:43:18.248 --> 00:43:26.719
It, it, it, it felt like I was the thing looking through the telescope, but my whole life I thought I was the fucking telescope.

00:43:27.509 --> 00:43:30.648
I'm I, dude, I'm like, Oh my God.

00:43:30.708 --> 00:43:32.208
Like, and that's what I mean.

00:43:32.219 --> 00:43:39.429
Like, uh, like, so I was filled with so much love that, and this was about 2018.

00:43:40.429 --> 00:43:45.548
I look at my fiance and say, I'm so overflown with love right now.

00:43:46.059 --> 00:43:50.318
I have to share the, the love that's in me with everybody else in the world.

00:43:51.778 --> 00:43:52.889
She didn't understand.

00:43:52.929 --> 00:43:55.438
I didn't understand, but it made sense to me.

00:43:55.889 --> 00:43:57.818
I said, I have to buy a microphone.

00:43:58.278 --> 00:43:59.858
Uh, I have to buy a camera.

00:44:00.009 --> 00:44:01.588
I have to buy every, whatever it is.

00:44:01.588 --> 00:44:02.338
I have to get it.

00:44:02.648 --> 00:44:05.128
I have to hit the record button and just, and just spread love.

00:44:06.554 --> 00:44:08.273
And that was it.

00:44:08.914 --> 00:44:09.523
That was it.

00:44:09.523 --> 00:44:10.664
And I just did that.

00:44:11.443 --> 00:44:14.914
I started in 2018 and that's what I did.

00:44:14.914 --> 00:44:17.534
It didn't necessarily make sense to me.

00:44:18.173 --> 00:44:20.594
It's not something that I've thought twice about.

00:44:20.864 --> 00:44:22.373
I didn't try to do it.

00:44:22.373 --> 00:44:22.903
I didn't.

00:44:23.393 --> 00:44:28.704
I wasn't like at home, like some of those entrepreneurs, like, let me try to conjure up a plan.

00:44:28.713 --> 00:44:31.509
Like, dude, I just listened to, to this.

00:44:32.659 --> 00:44:35.579
The energy that was flowing through me, it just said, do this.

00:44:35.608 --> 00:44:36.909
I, and I said, I surrender.

00:44:36.909 --> 00:44:38.068
Yes, I'll do it.

00:44:39.619 --> 00:44:40.188
Wow.

00:44:40.878 --> 00:44:43.009
That's a, that's a good story.

00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:46.188
That's like, uh, you were high on life.

00:44:46.389 --> 00:44:47.929
Saw yourself as the telescope.

00:44:48.268 --> 00:45:04.239
And then you're like, I need to, I need to get in front of a camera and start spreading love because I mean, it's almost like, uh, If I tell someone about your podcast, I'm going to be like, try not to take shrooms.

00:45:04.239 --> 00:45:04.329
See what

00:45:04.329 --> 00:45:05.028
happens.

00:45:05.088 --> 00:45:10.378
Do you feel the same, you know, like watching a Dr.

00:45:10.398 --> 00:45:14.699
Strange, you know, but not on anything and still getting that effect.

00:45:15.259 --> 00:45:16.128
Oh man.

00:45:16.139 --> 00:45:16.509
Yes.

00:45:17.498 --> 00:45:17.719
Yeah.

00:45:17.719 --> 00:45:18.028
Don't.

00:45:18.028 --> 00:45:18.278
Yeah.

00:45:18.278 --> 00:45:18.548
Don't.

00:45:19.518 --> 00:45:27.884
I know some people are going to be upset, but I'm going to say I think it's, uh, Are you familiar that are you familiar with the book power versus force?

00:45:28.943 --> 00:45:30.534
No, I haven't heard of that.

00:45:30.773 --> 00:45:42.833
It's he it's David Hawkins and he breaks down the different levels of consciousness And this is actually reminding me of a chapter that blew me away Where he talks about how?

00:45:43.313 --> 00:45:53.934
certain psychedelics stimulants all they're doing is is putting into a higher vibratory consciousness.

00:45:54.583 --> 00:45:59.173
And the addiction is actually you're addicted to that experience.

00:45:59.173 --> 00:46:11.474
If it was an elevator and you've been living your life on floor two, and then someone gave you something and you jumped to floor five, you came out and you're like, this is a beautiful place.

00:46:11.503 --> 00:46:12.974
You have a nice view.

00:46:13.393 --> 00:46:15.164
You have nice people.

00:46:16.259 --> 00:46:44.018
That's the first time you ever saw a marble floor, you're used to, you know, fake wood, whatever the case, and then you get, and then it runs out, you get sucked back into the elevator, you drop down, you get sped out, with everybody else on level 2, and you're like, oh, oh man, and you think you have to take that, and you're a perfect example of someone that's just like, on level 5, and you're like, It's great guys.

00:46:44.208 --> 00:46:45.358
I didn't take anything.

00:46:46.309 --> 00:46:46.809
Yes.

00:46:46.878 --> 00:46:52.159
And I feel like you got like a studio on level five and you're just like, Hey, welcome guys.

00:46:53.068 --> 00:46:55.628
You know, check out the floor.

00:46:55.628 --> 00:46:57.099
Check out the stars, bro.

00:46:57.409 --> 00:46:59.309
Check it out, man.

00:47:00.309 --> 00:47:01.849
Yes, yes, yes.

00:47:01.858 --> 00:47:01.878
Yeah.

00:47:02.068 --> 00:47:05.528
You make me so you started in 2018.

00:47:05.539 --> 00:47:07.409
You started your podcast.

00:47:07.699 --> 00:47:11.619
Is that like, You got in front of the camera and it was in 2018.

00:47:12.318 --> 00:47:12.728
Yes.

00:47:12.978 --> 00:47:15.088
And in 2018, I do that.

00:47:15.099 --> 00:47:30.398
It's so crazy because you know, at the time, you know, it was when you, when you went on Instagram, it wasn't as wide, like mainstream as it is now where everybody is, uh, you scroll, everybody has a SM7B in front of their faces.

00:47:30.409 --> 00:47:31.148
It was, uh.

00:47:31.773 --> 00:47:35.483
I was, something was like, dude, get the camera, get the mic.

00:47:35.494 --> 00:47:36.713
And I went all out.

00:47:36.793 --> 00:47:43.003
It's, so I started podcasting in 2018 and I left it for about five years.

00:47:43.853 --> 00:47:45.244
And now I'm coming back.

00:47:45.284 --> 00:47:49.583
My podcast is going to be launching in, uh, two days on the 24th.

00:47:50.034 --> 00:47:50.923
Nice.

00:47:51.273 --> 00:47:51.664
Nice.

00:47:51.693 --> 00:47:57.083
And you got like the whole, you got the whole setup and, uh, I'm excited for you, man.

00:47:57.684 --> 00:48:05.264
Because there's a lot of energy that you're pushing out right now that people deserve to feel and experience.

00:48:06.034 --> 00:48:40.043
When it comes to your self mastery, your, your coaching, what, uh, I want to end off with some, some tips, some things as you help people, as you're working your craft, what are some good nuggets that you feel that people appreciate that you've shared or you just, you know, Yeah, some good nuggets, some, some really good things on like self mastery, bringing up your worth, and maybe a sneak peek into some of the subjects you're going to talk about in your podcast in the first couple episodes.

00:48:40.623 --> 00:48:41.384
Absolutely.

00:48:41.483 --> 00:48:50.623
One of the things that I talk about when it comes to self mastery, but also self worth is the fact that so many people think that.

00:48:52.068 --> 00:48:55.219
Oh, I, I do need that drug to feel this.

00:48:55.614 --> 00:49:02.239
I, I do need, uh, the, the ayahuasca or the, the psilocybin to feel this.

00:49:02.239 --> 00:49:04.099
Don't, again, don't, don't get me wrong.

00:49:04.099 --> 00:49:06.134
I think one day I might try Ayahuasca.

00:49:06.199 --> 00:49:16.639
I just think that I might not come back if I do but um, again, I will say that, uh, prior to.

00:49:17.543 --> 00:49:45.693
Me feeling the way that I feel about life every single day, I would have probably jumped on ayahuasca or psilocybin sooner because within the spiritual world and not even just the, the spiritual woo woo, but even in the self development, uh, personal development world, so many people are handing out just that tips and tricks, hacks.

00:49:45.693 --> 00:49:45.914
Thanks.

00:49:46.273 --> 00:49:53.434
Exercises and this and this and that, and go to this retreat, do this.

00:49:53.434 --> 00:49:55.554
And I'm not against any of those things.

00:49:55.563 --> 00:50:07.054
All of those things are so amazing, but what people don't understand is that self mastery and feeling like you are on ayahuasca every day.

00:50:07.954 --> 00:50:09.324
It's not about learning.

00:50:09.784 --> 00:50:12.994
Anything it's about on learning again.

00:50:13.423 --> 00:50:14.893
I say this in my podcast.

00:50:15.043 --> 00:50:17.523
I, I do this with some of my coaching clients.

00:50:18.023 --> 00:50:21.934
When was the last time that you seen a child who wasn't confident?

00:50:23.003 --> 00:50:27.284
What child wasn't, uh, very confident in their abilities.

00:50:27.434 --> 00:50:37.304
They could have drawn this little transformer, a truck, a Barbie, and it looked like crap, but they thought it was the dopest thing in the world.

00:50:37.304 --> 00:50:39.143
They were confident about what they were doing.

00:50:40.034 --> 00:50:45.034
They had the willpower to when, when they woke up and they wanted to go ride the bike, they rolled the damn bike.

00:50:45.063 --> 00:50:47.563
They didn't like, they weren't like, Oh, like, I don't know.

00:50:47.623 --> 00:50:48.804
They rolled the damn bike.

00:50:49.833 --> 00:50:54.193
And when the child is like, Hey, I want that ice cream.

00:50:54.304 --> 00:50:56.083
I want this.

00:50:56.324 --> 00:50:57.623
I want that.

00:50:58.443 --> 00:51:00.873
That child believes they are worthy of Chuck E.

00:51:00.873 --> 00:51:01.213
Cheese.

00:51:01.224 --> 00:51:03.094
They believe they are worthy of the ice cream.

00:51:03.114 --> 00:51:05.224
They believe they are worthy of the sugar.

00:51:05.784 --> 00:51:18.384
They didn't start believing that they weren't worthy until somebody told them no, until they stopped being confident until people told them no, until.

00:51:20.384 --> 00:51:23.753
And so, That's the biggest thing.

00:51:24.494 --> 00:51:31.483
It's not putting on more masks because that's what learning new tips and tricks and exercises do.

00:51:31.884 --> 00:51:33.554
It's putting on more masks.

00:51:34.664 --> 00:51:40.063
You're become, you're becoming dependent on these exercises and all these things.

00:51:40.063 --> 00:51:44.643
But when you woke up as a child, you just woke up every day like this.

00:51:45.063 --> 00:51:48.403
And the reason why you stopped is because you put on a mask.

00:51:49.048 --> 00:51:51.759
And we wear this persona everywhere we go.

00:51:52.778 --> 00:51:54.668
Everywhere we go, we wear the persona.

00:51:54.668 --> 00:52:02.018
And it's bad enough to have the persona, but we put on a different one in every setting that we go to.

00:52:02.608 --> 00:52:06.728
We have a different persona at home, at work, at school.

00:52:07.838 --> 00:52:08.628
It doesn't matter.

00:52:08.628 --> 00:52:15.889
We put on a mask that we think people want us to wear.

00:52:16.724 --> 00:52:20.353
So we can be loved, approved, appreciated, and accepted.

00:52:21.724 --> 00:52:24.724
And that's when we stopped feeling freedom.

00:52:25.304 --> 00:52:27.094
That's when we stopped running naked.

00:52:27.103 --> 00:52:30.293
That's when we stopped running in the grass.

00:52:30.304 --> 00:52:33.423
That's when we stopped grounding everything that I teach.

00:52:34.764 --> 00:52:35.543
Yeah, sure.

00:52:35.543 --> 00:52:45.634
There are some things, some exercises, some things that I can give you, some things that we do, but it's really not learning something is reclaiming who we truly are.

00:52:46.503 --> 00:52:48.054
It's letting go of all the BS.

00:52:48.713 --> 00:52:49.974
Reclaim your inner child.

00:52:50.974 --> 00:52:51.414
Run around naked.

00:52:51.414 --> 00:52:52.134
There it is, bro.

00:52:53.534 --> 00:52:53.784
No.

00:52:55.744 --> 00:52:58.753
You can do that too, but I love you, man.

00:52:58.753 --> 00:53:00.463
It

00:53:00.463 --> 00:53:02.494
actually reminds me, well said.

00:53:02.853 --> 00:53:12.963
As my mind goes on tangents, uh, apparently there is a cruise that you can go on where it's a nude, I think it's a nude cruise.

00:53:13.773 --> 00:53:14.063
Yeah.

00:53:15.528 --> 00:53:15.858
I didn't know.

00:53:15.864 --> 00:53:19.583
So if you wanna embrace her inner a child, I will find that for you.

00:53:20.583 --> 00:53:23.164
I didn't say that, but you, you wanna do it?

00:53:23.168 --> 00:53:23.614
Go ahead,

00:53:24.514 --> 00:53:26.103
I'm gonna put a quote with your face.

00:53:26.284 --> 00:53:26.344
Wow.

00:53:27.873 --> 00:53:28.233
I'm kidding.

00:53:28.804 --> 00:53:30.309
You said go in the new cruise.

00:53:30.309 --> 00:53:30.628
Oh, perfect.

00:53:30.634 --> 00:53:30.844
Okay.

00:53:30.844 --> 00:53:31.983
What timestamp was that?

00:53:31.983 --> 00:53:33.764
No, So, um.

00:53:34.748 --> 00:53:37.809
Have you, uh, your podcast is about to launch.

00:53:38.259 --> 00:53:42.088
What, um, have you started recording episodes yet?

00:53:43.088 --> 00:53:45.759
I'm trying to get a sneak peek to what you're doing.

00:53:45.798 --> 00:53:53.099
Um, any, what, what can the beginning episodes look like that people can look forward to?

00:53:54.978 --> 00:53:59.318
Uh, yeah, so, we talk about many things.

00:53:59.329 --> 00:54:00.679
It's, it's more so just.

00:54:00.818 --> 00:54:08.798
It's, it's self mastery, but it's connecting with higher vibrations.

00:54:08.829 --> 00:54:12.889
It's my, my podcast is very relaxing, very soothing.

00:54:12.889 --> 00:54:23.548
So not only will I, uh, be talking, uh, by myself and just landing knowledge bombs, just.

00:54:24.764 --> 00:54:31.304
knowledge after knowledge, but it's also a very relaxing, a very calming, soothing podcast.

00:54:31.304 --> 00:54:37.173
I like to get you in the same, uh, vibrational state that I'm in before the podcast begins.

00:54:37.693 --> 00:54:43.184
We interview some people who are experts in, uh, certain areas of self mastery.

00:54:44.173 --> 00:54:51.833
So we interview some people who are really great at confidence, really great at willpower, Really amazing with self worth.

00:54:52.523 --> 00:54:57.083
Sometimes we interview people who are really amazing at all three.

00:54:57.954 --> 00:54:59.773
Maybe they just have one of those things.

00:55:01.193 --> 00:55:13.744
And funny enough, we haven't done this yet, but we will also be interviewing some people who maybe not be great at any of those things or great in some and doing a live breakthroughs.

00:55:14.744 --> 00:55:44.989
So it's, uh, It's definitely a good mix of getting you into the state, giving you the, all the good high vibe feels, but self improvement, motivation, spirituality, um, self mastery, but it's also community connecting with people who have those things, you know, really solid informing people on how to do that as well.

00:55:46.599 --> 00:56:06.059
And we also interview some people who might not necessarily be great in that thing to show people that it's possible because I feel like there's a lot of podcasts that will bring on talent who are experts, but a lot of podcasts are missing the relatability.

00:56:06.489 --> 00:56:08.579
Yeah, I hear you telling me I should eat these foods.

00:56:08.579 --> 00:56:10.409
Yeah, I hear you telling me that I should do this.

00:56:10.639 --> 00:56:12.489
Yeah, I hear you telling me that I should do that.

00:56:12.489 --> 00:56:14.208
But why don't you.

00:56:15.318 --> 00:56:17.909
on somebody that I feel like is like me.

00:56:18.938 --> 00:56:20.188
How can you help that person?

00:56:20.748 --> 00:56:21.219
I like it.

00:56:21.818 --> 00:56:24.659
So I want the podcast to be relatable to the audience as well.

00:56:24.659 --> 00:56:30.449
Uh, I want everybody to know that self mastery is possible for them.

00:56:32.018 --> 00:56:32.498
So, yeah.

00:56:33.179 --> 00:56:33.668
Awesome.

00:56:33.759 --> 00:56:34.699
I'm looking forward to it.

00:56:35.228 --> 00:56:37.208
The, you definitely have the chill vibe.

00:56:37.369 --> 00:56:37.918
It's interesting.

00:56:37.918 --> 00:56:43.173
You have the, you have, the high energy and also the chill vibe.

00:56:43.364 --> 00:56:45.943
And it's like in one spot.

00:56:45.954 --> 00:56:46.893
It's very interesting.

00:56:48.503 --> 00:56:49.134
Very interesting.

00:56:49.244 --> 00:56:49.514
I don't

00:56:49.514 --> 00:56:52.534
know how, yeah, it is interesting.

00:56:52.704 --> 00:56:54.543
I got to pick one or I don't know.

00:56:55.454 --> 00:57:02.514
No, but you know, you are you and it's working and it's going to be unique.

00:57:03.003 --> 00:57:03.884
It's just interesting.

00:57:04.003 --> 00:57:06.423
I'm, I'm very curious to see how that, how that works.

00:57:06.423 --> 00:57:08.213
Just, I'm experiencing it right now.

00:57:08.759 --> 00:57:15.338
It's like, uh, like I had five cups of coffee, but somehow I'm able to relax.

00:57:16.338 --> 00:57:23.518
And it's like, uh, I think, I think honestly, I think that's a, that's, I would say I'm in that state where I have a lot of energy, but I'm relaxed.

00:57:23.539 --> 00:57:25.869
That's a higher state of consciousness.

00:57:26.039 --> 00:57:31.918
You have an abundance of energy, but you don't need to like blow it up.

00:57:31.998 --> 00:57:34.548
You know, like you don't, it doesn't have to be used.

00:57:34.628 --> 00:57:36.619
It's got its places.

00:57:37.974 --> 00:57:38.373
Boom,

00:57:38.523 --> 00:57:38.824
bro.

00:57:38.833 --> 00:57:39.884
You have it too.

00:57:39.893 --> 00:57:43.153
Like, you know, when I, when I first met you, I saw it.

00:57:43.503 --> 00:57:45.014
You have that energy as well.

00:57:45.023 --> 00:57:47.673
It's the dude, I'll do what I got to do to get it done.

00:57:47.673 --> 00:57:52.273
But it's not even like, sorry, your energy is reserved.

00:57:52.333 --> 00:57:57.384
You are just very, uh, intentional where you put your energy.

00:57:58.233 --> 00:57:59.344
I love that about you, man.

00:58:00.463 --> 00:58:03.173

Oh, so what's the name of the, what's the name of the podcast going to be?

00:58:19.318 --> 00:58:26.489
And, um, what maybe, uh, do you have a release time and a place for people to go?

00:58:27.489 --> 00:58:27.829

00:58:27.838 --> 00:58:28.909
