 So welcome to the show today,
 
 00:00:44.470 --> 00:00:45.490
 Dr. Anna Marie.
 
 00:00:46.051 --> 00:00:48.231
 I really just want to kind
 
 00:00:48.250 --> 00:00:49.991
 of dive right in here to
 
 00:00:50.031 --> 00:00:51.631
 your background and what
 
 00:00:51.671 --> 00:00:53.991
 called you specifically to
 
 00:00:54.091 --> 00:00:54.792
 really branch into
 
 00:00:54.832 --> 00:00:56.993
 integrative health and as a naturopath.
 
 00:00:57.796 --> 00:00:58.677
 Yeah, thank you.
 
 00:00:58.718 --> 00:00:59.719
 Thanks for having me on.
 
 00:01:00.540 --> 00:01:00.820
 Well,
 
 00:01:01.161 --> 00:01:05.007
 my journey essentially started when I
 
 00:01:05.027 --> 00:01:05.927
 was in high school.
 
 00:01:06.308 --> 00:01:08.251
 I struggled with depression,
 
 00:01:08.350 --> 00:01:10.834
 but back then I didn't know
 
 00:01:10.855 --> 00:01:11.536
 what to call it.
 
 00:01:11.555 --> 00:01:12.617
 I didn't
 
 00:01:12.697 --> 00:01:14.138
 Didn't feel right inside.
 
 00:01:14.379 --> 00:01:16.441
 And on the outside,
 
 00:01:16.522 --> 00:01:18.243
 everything looked great.
 
 00:01:18.424 --> 00:01:19.686
 I was an athlete.
 
 00:01:20.126 --> 00:01:23.390
 I had a roof over my head.
 
 00:01:23.450 --> 00:01:24.772
 I got good grades.
 
 00:01:25.393 --> 00:01:27.034
 And so there was this dark
 
 00:01:27.075 --> 00:01:28.495
 secret inside of me that I
 
 00:01:28.537 --> 00:01:29.697
 wasn't happy about.
 
 00:01:29.957 --> 00:01:32.198
 And I didn't really know
 
 00:01:32.218 --> 00:01:34.379
 where that came from for a while.
 
 00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:36.421
 And then I graduated,
 
 00:01:36.462 --> 00:01:37.402
 went on to university.
 
 00:01:37.462 --> 00:01:39.003
 I thought, oh, fresh start.
 
 00:01:39.143 --> 00:01:41.924
 Like this is going to solve everything,
 
 00:01:42.063 --> 00:01:42.364
 right?
 
 00:01:42.424 --> 00:01:43.765
 I can reinvent myself.
 
 00:01:43.844 --> 00:01:44.945
 I can go to college.
 
 00:01:45.775 --> 00:01:46.956
 And my mental health
 
 00:01:46.975 --> 00:01:49.236
 continued to go on a
 
 00:01:49.277 --> 00:01:50.576
 downward spiral in college.
 
 00:01:51.576 --> 00:01:52.658
 Once I graduated,
 
 00:01:52.977 --> 00:01:54.698
 I decided to move across
 
 00:01:54.718 --> 00:01:56.879
 the country from Michigan to California.
 
 00:01:57.480 --> 00:01:57.620
 Now,
 
 00:01:57.799 --> 00:01:59.861
 this was the opportunity for me to
 
 00:01:59.900 --> 00:02:02.182
 feel better inside, as I told myself.
 
 00:02:03.081 --> 00:02:05.605
 And what I found in my early twenties,
 
 00:02:05.745 --> 00:02:07.007
 as I sat in a
 
 00:02:07.067 --> 00:02:08.750
 psychiatrist's office and
 
 00:02:08.770 --> 00:02:09.671
 got put on three mind
 
 00:02:09.692 --> 00:02:11.614
 altering medications within
 
 00:02:11.653 --> 00:02:12.656
 fifteen minutes,
 
 00:02:13.977 --> 00:02:15.780
 I really spiraled out from there.
 
 00:02:15.860 --> 00:02:17.562
 So medications did not work for me.
 
 00:02:18.342 --> 00:02:20.185
 And through that journey and
 
 00:02:20.305 --> 00:02:21.825
 realizing that I was the
 
 00:02:21.945 --> 00:02:23.427
 only person that can
 
 00:02:23.527 --> 00:02:25.068
 actually heal myself and
 
 00:02:25.088 --> 00:02:26.090
 make myself happy,
 
 00:02:26.631 --> 00:02:28.711
 I set forth on a journey to figure out,
 
 00:02:28.771 --> 00:02:29.212
 I thought, you know,
 
 00:02:29.233 --> 00:02:30.454
 if you can rewire a computer,
 
 00:02:30.493 --> 00:02:32.155
 we could rewire our brains, right?
 
 00:02:32.716 --> 00:02:34.737
 And so I started diving into
 
 00:02:34.978 --> 00:02:37.280
 natural remedies, holistic health,
 
 00:02:37.419 --> 00:02:38.520
 naturopathy, and
 
 00:02:38.901 --> 00:02:39.920
 energy healing.
 
 00:02:40.260 --> 00:02:42.421
 And I just ultimately just
 
 00:02:42.442 --> 00:02:44.042
 started layering in
 
 00:02:44.603 --> 00:02:46.943
 different practices that
 
 00:02:47.122 --> 00:02:49.383
 helped heal my brain and heal my body.
 
 00:02:50.163 --> 00:02:52.944
 And so that's kind of it in a nutshell.
 
 00:02:53.025 --> 00:02:55.185
 But I got here on purpose
 
 00:02:56.225 --> 00:02:58.265
 due to my own struggles in my life.
 
 00:02:58.545 --> 00:03:00.486
 And now I get to help others that...
 
 00:03:01.127 --> 00:03:01.326
 you know,
 
 00:03:01.347 --> 00:03:02.326
 hopefully they don't have to take
 
 00:03:02.347 --> 00:03:04.008
 a decade of their life to
 
 00:03:04.108 --> 00:03:06.788
 figure it out or longer, um,
 
 00:03:06.848 --> 00:03:07.927
 and help them help them
 
 00:03:07.948 --> 00:03:08.907
 start the healing process.
 
 00:03:08.927 --> 00:03:11.669
 Cause I believe we all can heal ourselves.
 
 00:03:11.908 --> 00:03:12.669
 So when I first got the
 
 00:03:12.709 --> 00:03:14.329
 opportunity to have you on the show,
 
 00:03:14.628 --> 00:03:16.969
 I was like, yes, a hundred percent.
 
 00:03:16.990 --> 00:03:17.189
 Yes.
 
 00:03:17.270 --> 00:03:18.710
 Because, um,
 
 00:03:19.409 --> 00:03:20.830
 this has been my journey and
 
 00:03:20.950 --> 00:03:21.971
 along the path,
 
 00:03:22.251 --> 00:03:23.931
 finding professionals that
 
 00:03:23.971 --> 00:03:25.931
 have the background, the experience,
 
 00:03:26.211 --> 00:03:28.431
 their own personal experience as well,
 
 00:03:29.032 --> 00:03:30.151
 with medications just not
 
 00:03:30.192 --> 00:03:30.872
 working for them.
 
 00:03:31.552 --> 00:03:32.712
 And having that credibility,
 
 00:03:33.193 --> 00:03:34.592
 that's been really challenging.
 
 00:03:34.633 --> 00:03:35.873
 And now it's changing now.
 
 00:03:35.973 --> 00:03:37.133
 Like, you know, ten years,
 
 00:03:37.174 --> 00:03:38.153
 twenty years later down
 
 00:03:38.193 --> 00:03:39.713
 through this journey, it's changing now.
 
 00:03:40.354 --> 00:03:41.615
 I'll just briefly share with you guys,
 
 00:03:42.055 --> 00:03:42.735
 a lot of people who have
 
 00:03:42.754 --> 00:03:44.055
 listened to the podcast hear this story,
 
 00:03:44.074 --> 00:03:45.036
 but I was medicated
 
 00:03:45.895 --> 00:03:47.135
 numerous times and I'm very
 
 00:03:47.195 --> 00:03:48.096
 sensitive to medications.
 
 00:03:48.116 --> 00:03:48.816
 I'm also a medium,
 
 00:03:48.876 --> 00:03:50.217
 so I'm sensitive to substances,
 
 00:03:50.236 --> 00:03:51.097
 I'm sensitive to energy,
 
 00:03:51.137 --> 00:03:51.877
 I'm just sensitive.
 
 00:03:52.377 --> 00:03:53.479
 And for my journey,
 
 00:03:53.519 --> 00:03:55.501
 it was a lot going and just
 
 00:03:55.540 --> 00:03:56.641
 trying to figure it out.
 
 00:03:56.822 --> 00:03:58.402
 And so someone like you in
 
 00:03:58.443 --> 00:03:59.444
 this day and age where so
 
 00:03:59.465 --> 00:04:00.705
 many people are medicated,
 
 00:04:00.746 --> 00:04:02.227
 so many people are seeking
 
 00:04:02.568 --> 00:04:04.068
 alternative solutions.
 
 00:04:04.128 --> 00:04:04.629
 And I know we're going to
 
 00:04:04.669 --> 00:04:06.651
 talk a little about ADD as well today.
 
 00:04:07.132 --> 00:04:08.674
 So I'm really excited to get to that.
 
 00:04:08.734 --> 00:04:11.216
 But I'm curious, like along your journey.
 
 00:04:12.076 --> 00:04:13.518
 your personal journey for you?
 
 00:04:13.638 --> 00:04:14.758
 Were there any milestones
 
 00:04:14.798 --> 00:04:16.538
 for you that related to
 
 00:04:16.559 --> 00:04:17.418
 your cognitive mental
 
 00:04:17.459 --> 00:04:20.201
 health that drove you and say, okay, now,
 
 00:04:20.620 --> 00:04:21.240
 this milestone,
 
 00:04:21.841 --> 00:04:23.341
 I'm done here in this part
 
 00:04:23.382 --> 00:04:24.242
 of the depression,
 
 00:04:24.283 --> 00:04:25.822
 or this part of the learning,
 
 00:04:26.023 --> 00:04:27.384
 you had learning disabilities,
 
 00:04:27.543 --> 00:04:28.625
 and you were working with
 
 00:04:29.045 --> 00:04:29.725
 learning challenges,
 
 00:04:29.785 --> 00:04:30.886
 and you're working with ADD.
 
 00:04:31.466 --> 00:04:32.706
 What were the milestones for
 
 00:04:32.745 --> 00:04:34.387
 you that you sort of just
 
 00:04:34.586 --> 00:04:35.567
 kind of connect that you
 
 00:04:35.588 --> 00:04:36.728
 could start to work with
 
 00:04:36.788 --> 00:04:38.408
 and help other people along the journey?
 
 00:04:39.557 --> 00:04:40.757
 Well, first,
 
 00:04:41.096 --> 00:04:42.778
 it was the realization that
 
 00:04:42.838 --> 00:04:44.858
 nothing's wrong with me.
 
 00:04:44.978 --> 00:04:46.399
 It's just the way I wound up
 
 00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.459
 being and really
 
 00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:51.699
 recognizing that I am smart,
 
 00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:53.000
 I am intelligent,
 
 00:04:53.240 --> 00:04:54.339
 and my brain just works
 
 00:04:54.379 --> 00:04:55.221
 differently than other
 
 00:04:55.261 --> 00:04:59.762
 people's and embracing my own unique,
 
 00:05:00.081 --> 00:05:01.201
 I'll say weirdness,
 
 00:05:01.521 --> 00:05:03.463
 because my kids will say, you're weird,
 
 00:05:03.502 --> 00:05:03.663
 mom.
 
 00:05:03.682 --> 00:05:04.642
 I'm like, thank you.
 
 00:05:04.802 --> 00:05:05.043
 Yeah.
 
 00:05:05.990 --> 00:05:08.310
 So I'm definitely different.
 
 00:05:09.091 --> 00:05:11.471
 And the biggest milestone
 
 00:05:11.672 --> 00:05:15.353
 was forgiving myself for my past as well.
 
 00:05:15.452 --> 00:05:16.834
 So when we're not mentally well,
 
 00:05:16.874 --> 00:05:19.975
 we choose to do things that are not well.
 
 00:05:20.535 --> 00:05:20.894
 Right.
 
 00:05:20.935 --> 00:05:23.055
 So, you know, people say, well,
 
 00:05:23.096 --> 00:05:24.216
 love yourself, love yourself.
 
 00:05:24.237 --> 00:05:24.357
 Well,
 
 00:05:24.377 --> 00:05:25.596
 how are you supposed to love yourself
 
 00:05:25.617 --> 00:05:27.317
 when you're not doing lovable things?
 
 00:05:27.937 --> 00:05:29.798
 for yourself to yourself.
 
 00:05:30.538 --> 00:05:32.819
 And so once I forgave myself
 
 00:05:32.858 --> 00:05:34.980
 from my past and I realized that,
 
 00:05:35.660 --> 00:05:37.360
 you know, the things I've done in my past,
 
 00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:38.521
 where I came from, um,
 
 00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:41.802
 mistakes I've made do not define me.
 
 00:05:42.341 --> 00:05:43.442
 And I chose to take the
 
 00:05:43.541 --> 00:05:44.983
 lessons extracted from
 
 00:05:45.043 --> 00:05:46.843
 those moments and leave the
 
 00:05:46.923 --> 00:05:48.382
 emotions in my past and
 
 00:05:48.403 --> 00:05:50.504
 just move forward with those lessons.
 
 00:05:51.204 --> 00:05:53.704
 I started to feel lighter inside.
 
 00:05:53.764 --> 00:05:53.845
 Um,
 
 00:05:55.146 --> 00:05:56.346
 And so that was a big thing.
 
 00:05:56.406 --> 00:05:57.947
 So forgiveness to myself and
 
 00:05:57.987 --> 00:05:59.410
 letting go of the past and
 
 00:05:59.449 --> 00:06:02.132
 not allowing it to shape my future.
 
 00:06:02.252 --> 00:06:04.314
 And then I actually had
 
 00:06:04.374 --> 00:06:05.894
 quite a few run-ins in the
 
 00:06:05.935 --> 00:06:07.175
 medical industry.
 
 00:06:09.077 --> 00:06:10.598
 As I worked through my depression,
 
 00:06:11.379 --> 00:06:12.781
 I ended up getting pregnant.
 
 00:06:13.622 --> 00:06:16.362
 And I really had a wonderful pregnancy.
 
 00:06:16.723 --> 00:06:18.023
 I just,
 
 00:06:18.363 --> 00:06:21.163
 it was a beautiful experience until
 
 00:06:21.244 --> 00:06:22.305
 I went to give birth.
 
 00:06:22.685 --> 00:06:25.906
 And I had a very unsettling
 
 00:06:25.966 --> 00:06:27.706
 birthing experience where
 
 00:06:27.726 --> 00:06:28.887
 this doctor wanted to
 
 00:06:28.927 --> 00:06:30.526
 vacuum my son out of me.
 
 00:06:30.846 --> 00:06:32.067
 And I said, no.
 
 00:06:32.307 --> 00:06:33.468
 And it was like, well,
 
 00:06:33.507 --> 00:06:34.329
 the doctor came in the
 
 00:06:34.348 --> 00:06:36.269
 middle of the night to deliver this baby.
 
 00:06:36.548 --> 00:06:37.829
 And now you're going to like,
 
 00:06:37.870 --> 00:06:39.949
 it was my fault that my son
 
 00:06:40.009 --> 00:06:41.430
 wasn't ready to come out.
 
 00:06:42.980 --> 00:06:44.560
 And then right after that,
 
 00:06:44.781 --> 00:06:46.961
 birthing a child is very traumatic,
 
 00:06:47.461 --> 00:06:48.622
 first and foremost.
 
 00:06:48.862 --> 00:06:50.742
 It's a beautiful traumatic experience.
 
 00:06:50.762 --> 00:06:52.622
 Your body needs time to heal from it.
 
 00:06:53.483 --> 00:06:54.963
 And after that,
 
 00:06:55.163 --> 00:06:56.463
 when my hormones shifted as
 
 00:06:56.504 --> 00:06:57.384
 my milk came in,
 
 00:06:57.983 --> 00:07:00.384
 I got postpartum depression
 
 00:07:01.865 --> 00:07:03.964
 at such a level of,
 
 00:07:05.245 --> 00:07:06.326
 it's like I think back to
 
 00:07:06.346 --> 00:07:07.886
 it and I think I was a different person.
 
 00:07:08.865 --> 00:07:11.267
 and it scared me um I
 
 00:07:11.307 --> 00:07:12.588
 remember I told my my
 
 00:07:12.648 --> 00:07:14.709
 husband that there was a
 
 00:07:14.790 --> 00:07:16.370
 gun in the hallway closet
 
 00:07:16.430 --> 00:07:18.052
 and I said do something
 
 00:07:18.072 --> 00:07:19.252
 with that and I started
 
 00:07:19.293 --> 00:07:20.012
 crying I'm like I don't
 
 00:07:20.033 --> 00:07:21.634
 know what just take it away
 
 00:07:21.713 --> 00:07:22.415
 just because I knew it was
 
 00:07:22.435 --> 00:07:24.696
 there and it's like I never
 
 00:07:24.735 --> 00:07:25.916
 wanted to hurt my child but
 
 00:07:25.956 --> 00:07:28.999
 myself and I had to work so
 
 00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:31.420
 hard mentally to like be
 
 00:07:31.459 --> 00:07:32.841
 like this is just an
 
 00:07:32.901 --> 00:07:35.083
 experience this is just an experience
 
 00:07:36.343 --> 00:07:39.007
 And then I went to my doctor
 
 00:07:39.346 --> 00:07:40.487
 and the thing they offered
 
 00:07:40.509 --> 00:07:41.309
 me for postpartum
 
 00:07:41.329 --> 00:07:43.232
 depression was an antidepressant.
 
 00:07:43.894 --> 00:07:46.735
 And I just remember, I'm like, remember,
 
 00:07:46.834 --> 00:07:48.055
 Anna Marie, remember,
 
 00:07:48.095 --> 00:07:50.475
 you've been here before, right?
 
 00:07:50.514 --> 00:07:52.276
 But when you feel so bad inside,
 
 00:07:52.315 --> 00:07:53.175
 you're desperate.
 
 00:07:53.636 --> 00:07:54.576
 And so, you know,
 
 00:07:54.615 --> 00:07:55.596
 and I've been programmed to
 
 00:07:55.677 --> 00:07:57.797
 go to a doctor with a white
 
 00:07:57.836 --> 00:07:59.317
 coat and get a pill.
 
 00:07:59.916 --> 00:08:03.458
 And so that woke me up even more.
 
 00:08:03.497 --> 00:08:04.658
 And I'm like, I will get through this.
 
 00:08:04.697 --> 00:08:06.298
 So a lot of mental...
 
 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:08.500
 work I have done.
 
 00:08:10.439 --> 00:08:11.540
 And so that was another
 
 00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:13.600
 reminder of you get to
 
 00:08:13.641 --> 00:08:15.242
 choose your health and well-being.
 
 00:08:15.742 --> 00:08:18.142
 And yes, these are just experiences.
 
 00:08:19.062 --> 00:08:20.764
 And so looking at my life as
 
 00:08:21.824 --> 00:08:24.524
 a bunch of experiences versus saying, oh,
 
 00:08:24.584 --> 00:08:26.565
 I have so much trauma, right?
 
 00:08:27.086 --> 00:08:28.045
 Yeah.
 
 00:08:28.146 --> 00:08:30.987
 And so so that's that's a big piece of it.
 
 00:08:31.107 --> 00:08:32.488
 And then I got pregnant with
 
 00:08:32.528 --> 00:08:33.888
 my daughter and they told
 
 00:08:33.908 --> 00:08:35.009
 me that my daughter most
 
 00:08:35.048 --> 00:08:36.369
 likely had Down syndrome
 
 00:08:37.009 --> 00:08:38.070
 and wanted me to go to a
 
 00:08:38.149 --> 00:08:39.490
 geneticist and said I could
 
 00:08:39.529 --> 00:08:40.629
 abort her up to twenty
 
 00:08:40.669 --> 00:08:41.951
 weeks and just like.
 
 00:08:43.106 --> 00:08:44.727
 I have so many stories of
 
 00:08:44.807 --> 00:08:47.250
 run-ins and I think I just
 
 00:08:47.269 --> 00:08:49.351
 find it interesting and I laugh.
 
 00:08:49.432 --> 00:08:50.552
 I'm like, okay, universe,
 
 00:08:50.572 --> 00:08:51.493
 you just keep throwing
 
 00:08:51.513 --> 00:08:52.573
 these things at me to
 
 00:08:52.634 --> 00:08:55.015
 remind me to stay grounded,
 
 00:08:55.615 --> 00:08:57.778
 to search for information
 
 00:08:58.077 --> 00:09:00.080
 and to stand up for myself.
 
 00:09:00.820 --> 00:09:01.821
 And I believe there's a time
 
 00:09:01.841 --> 00:09:02.780
 and place for medicine.
 
 00:09:02.821 --> 00:09:03.922
 Do not get me wrong.
 
 00:09:04.822 --> 00:09:07.365
 But there is also we need to
 
 00:09:07.725 --> 00:09:09.105
 make decisions for our health,
 
 00:09:09.326 --> 00:09:11.567
 not out of fear, first and foremost.
 
 00:09:11.606 --> 00:09:14.570
 And we need to ask why and ask questions.
 
 00:09:15.929 --> 00:09:17.511
 And so those have been some
 
 00:09:17.591 --> 00:09:19.312
 pretty impactful moments in
 
 00:09:19.373 --> 00:09:22.235
 my life in terms of my mental health,
 
 00:09:22.315 --> 00:09:25.437
 but really recognizing to let the past go,
 
 00:09:25.517 --> 00:09:27.597
 forgive myself and realize
 
 00:09:27.638 --> 00:09:29.178
 that every single thing
 
 00:09:30.019 --> 00:09:31.740
 that we take into our lives,
 
 00:09:32.020 --> 00:09:33.341
 what we choose to see,
 
 00:09:33.880 --> 00:09:35.321
 what we choose to smell,
 
 00:09:35.541 --> 00:09:37.062
 what we choose to taste,
 
 00:09:37.121 --> 00:09:37.922
 put in our bodies,
 
 00:09:37.961 --> 00:09:39.402
 what we choose to listen to,
 
 00:09:39.741 --> 00:09:40.942
 who we choose to hug,
 
 00:09:41.702 --> 00:09:43.403
 our environment that we choose to be in,
 
 00:09:43.442 --> 00:09:44.342
 are we outside?
 
 00:09:45.163 --> 00:09:46.864
 All of that is downloading
 
 00:09:46.984 --> 00:09:49.384
 information into our being,
 
 00:09:49.445 --> 00:09:50.565
 into our auric field.
 
 00:09:51.721 --> 00:09:52.600
 And if you're not paying
 
 00:09:52.642 --> 00:09:54.001
 attention to the downloads,
 
 00:09:54.341 --> 00:09:55.383
 you are going to be getting
 
 00:09:55.623 --> 00:09:57.364
 downloaded information that
 
 00:09:57.403 --> 00:09:58.705
 is not serving your highest
 
 00:09:58.764 --> 00:10:00.024
 good for you to live a true
 
 00:10:00.044 --> 00:10:01.046
 and authentic life.
 
 00:10:01.745 --> 00:10:03.027
 And so that's another piece
 
 00:10:03.067 --> 00:10:04.107
 that I started to wake up
 
 00:10:04.168 --> 00:10:05.828
 to versus letting being
 
 00:10:05.869 --> 00:10:08.389
 reactive in life to be in
 
 00:10:08.570 --> 00:10:10.331
 action with life and be in
 
 00:10:10.730 --> 00:10:12.272
 the present moment with life.
 
 00:10:13.945 --> 00:10:15.326
 I love that you were really
 
 00:10:15.386 --> 00:10:16.947
 sharing how much that your
 
 00:10:17.269 --> 00:10:18.769
 process and your journey
 
 00:10:18.789 --> 00:10:20.131
 was just an experience.
 
 00:10:20.673 --> 00:10:23.716
 I think disconnecting the shame, the fear,
 
 00:10:23.936 --> 00:10:24.616
 the stigma,
 
 00:10:24.976 --> 00:10:27.179
 these kind of like this
 
 00:10:27.299 --> 00:10:28.301
 energetic signature,
 
 00:10:28.942 --> 00:10:30.744
 we have an idea of mental illness,
 
 00:10:30.783 --> 00:10:32.446
 we have then along with those ideas,
 
 00:10:32.485 --> 00:10:33.647
 there's layers of feelings,
 
 00:10:33.667 --> 00:10:35.269
 there's layers of associations that
 
 00:10:35.788 --> 00:10:38.032
 We in our culture,
 
 00:10:38.072 --> 00:10:39.975
 in movies and what we've learned, again,
 
 00:10:39.995 --> 00:10:40.655
 this is all the things
 
 00:10:40.676 --> 00:10:41.437
 you're saying that's coming
 
 00:10:41.476 --> 00:10:42.357
 into our arc field that
 
 00:10:42.378 --> 00:10:43.360
 we're just absorbing and
 
 00:10:43.379 --> 00:10:44.280
 it's just there on the
 
 00:10:44.380 --> 00:10:46.423
 unconscious where we're not aware of it.
 
 00:10:46.464 --> 00:10:49.086
 And it's just that's how our perception,
 
 00:10:49.167 --> 00:10:51.429
 our worldview, our identity,
 
 00:10:51.470 --> 00:10:53.253
 we potentially identify with that.
 
 00:10:53.692 --> 00:10:55.014
 a mental health diagnosis.
 
 00:10:55.374 --> 00:10:56.715
 And I think the biggest step
 
 00:10:56.774 --> 00:10:58.836
 to help people understand
 
 00:10:58.875 --> 00:11:00.157
 the separate that is so powerful.
 
 00:11:00.177 --> 00:11:01.037
 And then you did that work.
 
 00:11:01.397 --> 00:11:02.298
 And the surrendering work
 
 00:11:02.337 --> 00:11:05.418
 itself is the most challenging,
 
 00:11:05.499 --> 00:11:07.320
 almost ongoing process, I think,
 
 00:11:07.340 --> 00:11:08.160
 for some people.
 
 00:11:08.581 --> 00:11:09.421
 And some people never really
 
 00:11:09.441 --> 00:11:10.621
 have the tools or resources
 
 00:11:10.682 --> 00:11:12.043
 or the awareness to be able to get there.
 
 00:11:12.503 --> 00:11:13.683
 but I always tell people
 
 00:11:13.703 --> 00:11:14.924
 like you know it's isn't it
 
 00:11:14.965 --> 00:11:16.886
 interesting that with a
 
 00:11:16.947 --> 00:11:18.168
 physiological health issue
 
 00:11:18.207 --> 00:11:19.268
 we don't have so much shame
 
 00:11:19.308 --> 00:11:20.109
 around it like if we're
 
 00:11:20.129 --> 00:11:21.629
 diabetic and you're like oh
 
 00:11:21.690 --> 00:11:22.931
 I have to take insulin you
 
 00:11:22.951 --> 00:11:23.951
 know and maybe that person
 
 00:11:23.991 --> 00:11:24.972
 has to for their particular
 
 00:11:25.212 --> 00:11:26.774
 journey there's no attached
 
 00:11:26.815 --> 00:11:29.316
 shame necessarily and same
 
 00:11:29.336 --> 00:11:30.037
 thing if you twist your
 
 00:11:30.116 --> 00:11:31.477
 ankle you know it's not
 
 00:11:31.498 --> 00:11:33.058
 like oh my gosh I am you
 
 00:11:33.078 --> 00:11:34.299
 know a horrible person all
 
 00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:37.163
 these layers of that don't get piled on
 
 00:11:37.883 --> 00:11:40.264
 So I just find that really,
 
 00:11:40.283 --> 00:11:40.984
 really interesting.
 
 00:11:41.484 --> 00:11:42.724
 Now, you're, of course,
 
 00:11:42.744 --> 00:11:44.445
 we're talking so much about
 
 00:11:44.965 --> 00:11:46.144
 the information that's
 
 00:11:46.164 --> 00:11:47.225
 coming in and how you're
 
 00:11:47.245 --> 00:11:49.605
 assimilating it in your being.
 
 00:11:50.485 --> 00:11:52.567
 When did you first realize
 
 00:11:52.606 --> 00:11:53.667
 that there was a connection
 
 00:11:53.947 --> 00:11:55.268
 between the mind and body?
 
 00:11:55.508 --> 00:11:56.587
 When did that start for you?
 
 00:11:56.668 --> 00:11:57.548
 And then how did that
 
 00:11:57.587 --> 00:11:58.708
 progress with in working
 
 00:11:58.729 --> 00:11:59.609
 with your clients?
 
 00:12:01.057 --> 00:12:01.337
 Well,
 
 00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:04.360
 I started to realize that when I
 
 00:12:04.421 --> 00:12:06.803
 chose to look at the positive,
 
 00:12:07.083 --> 00:12:07.825
 I felt better.
 
 00:12:08.125 --> 00:12:09.145
 It was that simple.
 
 00:12:09.687 --> 00:12:10.607
 When I chose,
 
 00:12:10.888 --> 00:12:12.549
 like I would be the person
 
 00:12:12.570 --> 00:12:13.890
 that would show up and
 
 00:12:13.931 --> 00:12:15.011
 complain about everything
 
 00:12:15.032 --> 00:12:15.812
 that went wrong on my
 
 00:12:15.852 --> 00:12:16.693
 morning drive to work.
 
 00:12:18.191 --> 00:12:19.451
 And that was exhausting.
 
 00:12:20.371 --> 00:12:21.413
 And so when I started to
 
 00:12:21.452 --> 00:12:23.313
 just like not complain
 
 00:12:23.594 --> 00:12:26.336
 about the things that in my
 
 00:12:26.375 --> 00:12:27.277
 life that seemed
 
 00:12:27.317 --> 00:12:29.038
 challenging or that I didn't like,
 
 00:12:29.638 --> 00:12:31.418
 I started to just view what was good.
 
 00:12:31.479 --> 00:12:32.460
 So it's really that
 
 00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:35.260
 gratitude practice because our mind,
 
 00:12:35.400 --> 00:12:36.081
 our brains are very
 
 00:12:36.142 --> 00:12:37.962
 powerful and they will
 
 00:12:38.082 --> 00:12:39.583
 actually filter out
 
 00:12:39.844 --> 00:12:42.326
 everything to see the very
 
 00:12:42.365 --> 00:12:43.105
 thing you're telling your
 
 00:12:43.125 --> 00:12:44.606
 brain to look for, right?
 
 00:12:45.147 --> 00:12:47.327
 And we're programmed to look for danger.
 
 00:12:47.408 --> 00:12:48.649
 This is why we always go to
 
 00:12:48.668 --> 00:12:49.490
 the negative first,
 
 00:12:49.509 --> 00:12:50.509
 because this is a survival
 
 00:12:50.549 --> 00:12:52.831
 mechanism that is instilled in our being.
 
 00:12:54.231 --> 00:12:56.753
 But majority of people don't
 
 00:12:56.793 --> 00:13:00.215
 have to live in survival mode anymore.
 
 00:13:00.774 --> 00:13:02.735
 And so it was making a
 
 00:13:02.796 --> 00:13:04.057
 conscious choice to look
 
 00:13:04.076 --> 00:13:07.099
 for what was good and then
 
 00:13:07.139 --> 00:13:10.259
 allowing myself to see that.
 
 00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:12.581
 And I physically started to feel better.
 
 00:13:13.740 --> 00:13:15.181
 And then I started to,
 
 00:13:15.381 --> 00:13:18.543
 I learned about Dr. Emoto's work with,
 
 00:13:18.624 --> 00:13:19.504
 if you've ever heard of him,
 
 00:13:19.544 --> 00:13:21.427
 I'm sure you have, with, you know,
 
 00:13:21.486 --> 00:13:23.448
 the consciousness of water.
 
 00:13:24.168 --> 00:13:25.429
 And with that experiment,
 
 00:13:25.470 --> 00:13:27.392
 he proved that water has consciousness,
 
 00:13:27.491 --> 00:13:31.975
 meaning that you can say words to water,
 
 00:13:32.115 --> 00:13:33.837
 love, love, love, love,
 
 00:13:33.918 --> 00:13:36.179
 and that water will actually vibrate and
 
 00:13:36.500 --> 00:13:37.941
 at B with beautiful crystals,
 
 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:39.480
 it'll form beautiful crystals.
 
 00:13:39.841 --> 00:13:41.562
 Um, if you freeze that water,
 
 00:13:41.662 --> 00:13:42.741
 and then if you have water
 
 00:13:42.782 --> 00:13:45.844
 that is spoken to with negative words,
 
 00:13:46.484 --> 00:13:49.504
 then that water freezes in a darker,
 
 00:13:49.725 --> 00:13:50.826
 more chaotic form.
 
 00:13:50.846 --> 00:13:50.946
 Um,
 
 00:13:52.025 --> 00:13:54.206
 the other thing is you look at plants
 
 00:13:54.326 --> 00:13:55.187
 and I started learning
 
 00:13:55.226 --> 00:13:56.607
 about plants and there was
 
 00:13:56.628 --> 00:13:59.869
 this really cool exercise that, um,
 
 00:13:59.969 --> 00:14:00.828
 I don't even remember the school.
 
 00:14:00.869 --> 00:14:01.450
 It was a school.
 
 00:14:01.509 --> 00:14:02.590
 I saw this video on YouTube
 
 00:14:02.610 --> 00:14:04.971
 and it really made an impact in my mind.
 
 00:14:05.974 --> 00:14:07.154
 And what they did is they
 
 00:14:07.195 --> 00:14:09.256
 had like a foyer where there was,
 
 00:14:09.918 --> 00:14:10.278
 you know,
 
 00:14:10.599 --> 00:14:14.081
 glass and there was essentially
 
 00:14:14.121 --> 00:14:15.442
 the same lighting that came
 
 00:14:15.482 --> 00:14:17.105
 through and they had two boxes,
 
 00:14:17.865 --> 00:14:19.447
 one box of glass that had a
 
 00:14:19.486 --> 00:14:20.648
 plant in it and the second
 
 00:14:20.668 --> 00:14:21.989
 box of glass that had a plant in it.
 
 00:14:22.929 --> 00:14:24.931
 Both boxes had the same soil,
 
 00:14:24.971 --> 00:14:25.991
 the same plant,
 
 00:14:26.072 --> 00:14:28.013
 like everything identical.
 
 00:14:28.552 --> 00:14:29.514
 They had microphones that
 
 00:14:29.553 --> 00:14:30.554
 went to each plant.
 
 00:14:31.235 --> 00:14:32.076
 The one microphone,
 
 00:14:32.096 --> 00:14:32.895
 kids could only say
 
 00:14:32.956 --> 00:14:34.496
 positive affirmations to it,
 
 00:14:34.537 --> 00:14:35.317
 positive things.
 
 00:14:35.738 --> 00:14:36.557
 The other plant,
 
 00:14:36.738 --> 00:14:37.639
 kids could only say
 
 00:14:37.719 --> 00:14:38.720
 negative things or tell all
 
 00:14:38.740 --> 00:14:39.539
 their problems to.
 
 00:14:39.820 --> 00:14:41.100
 Within thirty days,
 
 00:14:41.721 --> 00:14:43.081
 the plant that was spoken
 
 00:14:43.121 --> 00:14:44.582
 to with all the negative
 
 00:14:44.623 --> 00:14:46.004
 things and all the problems
 
 00:14:46.203 --> 00:14:47.585
 started to wither and die.
 
 00:14:48.625 --> 00:14:50.086
 And so if our bodies are
 
 00:14:50.167 --> 00:14:51.626
 mostly made up of water,
 
 00:14:52.788 --> 00:14:53.629
 What do you think your
 
 00:14:53.688 --> 00:14:55.190
 thoughts and your words are
 
 00:14:55.250 --> 00:14:56.990
 doing to your biochemical makeup?
 
 00:14:57.610 --> 00:14:58.871
 So that's what I started to
 
 00:14:58.912 --> 00:14:59.812
 really study energy
 
 00:14:59.852 --> 00:15:00.773
 medicine and started to
 
 00:15:00.854 --> 00:15:03.534
 realize like the words that I speak,
 
 00:15:03.775 --> 00:15:05.096
 the thoughts that I have
 
 00:15:05.235 --> 00:15:06.677
 are incredibly powerful.
 
 00:15:07.418 --> 00:15:08.918
 And that really started to
 
 00:15:08.979 --> 00:15:10.419
 wake me up and started for
 
 00:15:10.740 --> 00:15:12.280
 me to start shifting.
 
 00:15:12.721 --> 00:15:14.403
 I would catch myself with, you know,
 
 00:15:14.423 --> 00:15:16.703
 we all have that background of downloads.
 
 00:15:16.903 --> 00:15:17.705
 I'm not good enough.
 
 00:15:17.764 --> 00:15:19.166
 That's not available to me.
 
 00:15:19.245 --> 00:15:20.366
 People don't like me.
 
 00:15:20.486 --> 00:15:20.687
 I mean,
 
 00:15:21.466 --> 00:15:23.408
 I have all of these programs
 
 00:15:23.567 --> 00:15:25.308
 into my subconscious.
 
 00:15:26.169 --> 00:15:27.971
 And every time I consciously
 
 00:15:28.130 --> 00:15:30.392
 override that and remind my subconscious,
 
 00:15:30.451 --> 00:15:31.812
 yes, but this is not true,
 
 00:15:32.932 --> 00:15:34.333
 that it frees you.
 
 00:15:34.474 --> 00:15:35.835
 Your body feels lighter.
 
 00:15:35.894 --> 00:15:36.695
 You feel better.
 
 00:15:36.794 --> 00:15:40.057
 So that mind-body, that is a real thing.
 
 00:15:40.096 --> 00:15:41.376
 You can think yourself ill
 
 00:15:41.417 --> 00:15:42.778
 and you can think yourself healthy.
 
 00:15:43.278 --> 00:15:45.919
 I believe all dis-ease starts in the mind.
 
 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:48.160
 And we're all mental,
 
 00:15:48.221 --> 00:15:49.782
 so that's why good health matters.
 
 00:15:50.322 --> 00:15:51.682
 So you got to do the things.
 
 00:15:52.984 --> 00:15:53.163
 Yeah.
 
 00:15:53.224 --> 00:15:53.724
 I think it's,
 
 00:15:53.903 --> 00:15:55.725
 it's definitely something to say if,
 
 00:15:56.265 --> 00:15:57.265
 you know, if you're thinking about,
 
 00:15:57.285 --> 00:15:58.006
 I want to point out about
 
 00:15:58.047 --> 00:16:00.087
 the plants because I think
 
 00:16:00.648 --> 00:16:01.828
 I love this interesting
 
 00:16:02.048 --> 00:16:03.289
 transition we have with our,
 
 00:16:03.649 --> 00:16:07.692
 our society now where we have been so, um,
 
 00:16:07.731 --> 00:16:10.033
 left brain science oriented, logical,
 
 00:16:10.374 --> 00:16:10.994
 structured,
 
 00:16:11.153 --> 00:16:14.817
 oriented to physical proof and, and this,
 
 00:16:14.836 --> 00:16:14.876
 um,
 
 00:16:15.897 --> 00:16:17.217
 awareness that we have more
 
 00:16:17.258 --> 00:16:18.577
 than this that side of our
 
 00:16:18.758 --> 00:16:19.938
 brain and you know even I'd
 
 00:16:19.958 --> 00:16:21.058
 extend it beyond that like
 
 00:16:21.259 --> 00:16:22.019
 you know we only have a
 
 00:16:22.059 --> 00:16:25.541
 specific gray matter and
 
 00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:26.261
 the way that our brain
 
 00:16:26.341 --> 00:16:27.481
 operates for specific
 
 00:16:27.581 --> 00:16:29.143
 orienting us to five senses
 
 00:16:29.403 --> 00:16:30.383
 now as a medium I'm always
 
 00:16:30.423 --> 00:16:31.543
 like there's so much more
 
 00:16:31.604 --> 00:16:33.105
 to yeah consciousness and
 
 00:16:33.644 --> 00:16:34.345
 and when people are
 
 00:16:34.384 --> 00:16:35.926
 skeptical about it I I you
 
 00:16:35.946 --> 00:16:37.466
 know I accept that they're
 
 00:16:37.527 --> 00:16:38.486
 operating from that place
 
 00:16:38.506 --> 00:16:39.287
 in awareness so that's
 
 00:16:39.386 --> 00:16:40.368
 there's no needing to fight
 
 00:16:40.408 --> 00:16:41.668
 it right but I kind of
 
 00:16:41.707 --> 00:16:42.308
 point out the whole thing
 
 00:16:42.349 --> 00:16:44.750
 with the plants like plants don't have
 
 00:16:45.350 --> 00:16:47.010
 a conscious awareness of
 
 00:16:47.150 --> 00:16:48.971
 what we as humans deem to
 
 00:16:49.011 --> 00:16:50.652
 be quote unquote negative or positive.
 
 00:16:50.692 --> 00:16:50.871
 You know,
 
 00:16:50.912 --> 00:16:53.072
 we create that polarity of judging.
 
 00:16:53.092 --> 00:16:53.974
 That's a negative thought or
 
 00:16:53.994 --> 00:16:54.854
 that's a positive thought
 
 00:16:54.874 --> 00:16:55.553
 of what they're saying,
 
 00:16:55.615 --> 00:16:56.534
 of the kids we're sharing.
 
 00:16:57.215 --> 00:16:58.456
 But I love kind of bringing
 
 00:16:58.475 --> 00:17:00.277
 it back to energy medicine and
 
 00:17:01.456 --> 00:17:04.459
 the loving thoughts are, they're coherent.
 
 00:17:04.519 --> 00:17:06.221
 They bring together, they combine,
 
 00:17:06.260 --> 00:17:07.020
 they connect.
 
 00:17:07.501 --> 00:17:09.383
 And that's what we feel within ourselves.
 
 00:17:09.442 --> 00:17:10.644
 I think when we're in that space,
 
 00:17:10.663 --> 00:17:11.924
 when you're overriding your programs,
 
 00:17:11.964 --> 00:17:12.105
 right?
 
 00:17:12.125 --> 00:17:13.486
 You're feeling connected to yourself.
 
 00:17:13.506 --> 00:17:14.326
 You're feeling coherent.
 
 00:17:14.346 --> 00:17:15.487
 You're feeling connected to others.
 
 00:17:15.507 --> 00:17:16.307
 There's no judgment.
 
 00:17:16.748 --> 00:17:17.608
 And the opposite is true
 
 00:17:17.648 --> 00:17:19.630
 with what we would label as negative,
 
 00:17:19.670 --> 00:17:20.691
 where we start to
 
 00:17:20.750 --> 00:17:21.951
 disconnect from ourselves,
 
 00:17:21.991 --> 00:17:23.012
 disconnect from each other,
 
 00:17:23.133 --> 00:17:24.534
 creating a separation.
 
 00:17:24.614 --> 00:17:26.635
 And with the Masairo Moto thing,
 
 00:17:27.296 --> 00:17:30.057
 Isn't it so cool to see with the negative,
 
 00:17:30.479 --> 00:17:32.019
 the kind of the disoriented
 
 00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:33.621
 music that's being played or the words,
 
 00:17:34.001 --> 00:17:35.061
 the water molecules and the
 
 00:17:35.082 --> 00:17:37.104
 crystals become, like you said, chaotic,
 
 00:17:37.144 --> 00:17:38.986
 they become disoriented and disconnected,
 
 00:17:39.026 --> 00:17:40.267
 not coherent and connected.
 
 00:17:41.688 --> 00:17:43.068
 So like those two things,
 
 00:17:43.209 --> 00:17:44.990
 as we continue this conversation here,
 
 00:17:45.451 --> 00:17:46.872
 coherence or disconnection,
 
 00:17:47.152 --> 00:17:48.153
 I'd like the audience to
 
 00:17:48.173 --> 00:17:49.034
 keep those in the back of
 
 00:17:49.054 --> 00:17:50.634
 their mind because I feel
 
 00:17:50.654 --> 00:17:51.675
 like it kind of stems from
 
 00:17:51.715 --> 00:17:53.557
 that as the foundation for all of this.
 
 00:17:54.357 --> 00:17:56.119
 um but I know we kind of
 
 00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:57.020
 shared here a little bit
 
 00:17:57.060 --> 00:17:57.902
 you shared the things that
 
 00:17:57.922 --> 00:17:58.882
 you learned along the way
 
 00:17:59.123 --> 00:18:00.683
 for how thoughts shape our
 
 00:18:00.723 --> 00:18:02.766
 health um is there any
 
 00:18:02.846 --> 00:18:04.007
 other things related to
 
 00:18:04.126 --> 00:18:05.469
 that topic any science or
 
 00:18:05.528 --> 00:18:06.348
 research you'd like to
 
 00:18:06.369 --> 00:18:07.951
 share anything with that
 
 00:18:08.010 --> 00:18:09.192
 mind body awareness that
 
 00:18:09.471 --> 00:18:10.353
 you didn't mention already
 
 00:18:10.393 --> 00:18:11.354
 with the plants and the
 
 00:18:11.374 --> 00:18:13.036
 maseromoto and our
 
 00:18:13.076 --> 00:18:14.477
 programming subconscious
 
 00:18:15.018 --> 00:18:16.118
 that you find very fascinating
 
 00:18:16.903 --> 00:18:17.844
 Yeah, well,
 
 00:18:17.923 --> 00:18:20.085
 I think that I want to point
 
 00:18:20.164 --> 00:18:22.306
 out one thing about the
 
 00:18:22.346 --> 00:18:24.307
 brain that I think a lot of
 
 00:18:24.326 --> 00:18:26.868
 people can relate to is we
 
 00:18:26.929 --> 00:18:28.068
 all went through that whole
 
 00:18:28.109 --> 00:18:31.171
 period of the fear around COVID, right?
 
 00:18:32.251 --> 00:18:35.032
 So when we get put in a
 
 00:18:35.134 --> 00:18:38.154
 state of high fight or flight fear,
 
 00:18:39.336 --> 00:18:41.477
 and this was pushed on
 
 00:18:41.777 --> 00:18:43.097
 every single one of us,
 
 00:18:43.117 --> 00:18:44.179
 I don't think anyone was
 
 00:18:44.298 --> 00:18:46.319
 untouched from this, right?
 
 00:18:46.500 --> 00:18:48.240
 What happens is there's a
 
 00:18:48.280 --> 00:18:50.803
 part of your brain where
 
 00:18:51.063 --> 00:18:52.644
 this amygdala that starts
 
 00:18:52.763 --> 00:18:54.224
 going a little bit crazy
 
 00:18:54.845 --> 00:18:57.186
 and this emotional part of
 
 00:18:57.207 --> 00:18:59.407
 your brain starts to take over.
 
 00:18:59.827 --> 00:19:02.670
 This is very true when we are teenagers.
 
 00:19:03.835 --> 00:19:05.636
 And when that's happening,
 
 00:19:05.997 --> 00:19:07.518
 what happens is it cuts us
 
 00:19:07.657 --> 00:19:09.779
 off from using our prefrontal cortex,
 
 00:19:09.819 --> 00:19:11.921
 which is our executive function thinking.
 
 00:19:12.882 --> 00:19:14.403
 And so when we are in a
 
 00:19:14.502 --> 00:19:18.686
 state of fear and worry and anxiety,
 
 00:19:19.692 --> 00:19:22.674
 we are not making the best
 
 00:19:22.714 --> 00:19:23.974
 decisions that's for the
 
 00:19:24.035 --> 00:19:25.435
 highest good of all.
 
 00:19:26.395 --> 00:19:29.998
 And so many people live in
 
 00:19:30.038 --> 00:19:32.098
 that energy and they feel
 
 00:19:32.179 --> 00:19:34.039
 so dense and they feel so
 
 00:19:34.140 --> 00:19:35.381
 tired and they're not
 
 00:19:35.540 --> 00:19:36.402
 sleeping and their
 
 00:19:36.461 --> 00:19:37.602
 thyroid's bothering them
 
 00:19:37.622 --> 00:19:38.643
 and they're not digesting
 
 00:19:38.702 --> 00:19:40.824
 food properly and they get
 
 00:19:40.884 --> 00:19:43.464
 lower back pain and their joints ache.
 
 00:19:43.924 --> 00:19:44.986
 And there's, I mean,
 
 00:19:45.705 --> 00:19:47.106
 I see this every day with
 
 00:19:47.166 --> 00:19:48.268
 people I work with.
 
 00:19:49.127 --> 00:19:53.310
 And so when we really take
 
 00:19:53.431 --> 00:19:55.792
 inventory of our physical
 
 00:19:55.833 --> 00:19:59.295
 body and recognize that if
 
 00:19:59.335 --> 00:20:00.715
 we go inside every single
 
 00:20:00.855 --> 00:20:02.738
 cell till we can't go any further,
 
 00:20:02.778 --> 00:20:04.999
 the only thing that's left is energy.
 
 00:20:05.940 --> 00:20:07.361
 So to not address the
 
 00:20:07.560 --> 00:20:09.122
 energetics of the human
 
 00:20:09.201 --> 00:20:11.042
 body when it comes to healing,
 
 00:20:12.023 --> 00:20:13.105
 I believe we're missing a
 
 00:20:13.204 --> 00:20:14.645
 whole aspect of healing.
 
 00:20:16.009 --> 00:20:17.872
 And so we just paying
 
 00:20:17.892 --> 00:20:19.854
 attention to how you're thinking,
 
 00:20:20.433 --> 00:20:22.056
 what you're allowing to come in.
 
 00:20:22.476 --> 00:20:23.856
 If you're an anxious person,
 
 00:20:23.957 --> 00:20:26.579
 you should not be watching the news.
 
 00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:27.480
 Yeah.
 
 00:20:27.520 --> 00:20:29.883
 Like, like do not do that.
 
 00:20:30.083 --> 00:20:31.544
 You should be in the evening
 
 00:20:31.584 --> 00:20:32.565
 going outside.
 
 00:20:32.744 --> 00:20:33.625
 We should all be doing this,
 
 00:20:33.925 --> 00:20:35.768
 putting your bare feet in the grass,
 
 00:20:36.188 --> 00:20:38.369
 walking around, being in nature.
 
 00:20:39.907 --> 00:20:43.010
 And so it's incredible what
 
 00:20:43.050 --> 00:20:46.153
 the earth gives us in terms of sunshine,
 
 00:20:46.755 --> 00:20:48.777
 in terms of like being in nature,
 
 00:20:48.817 --> 00:20:49.777
 just going outside your
 
 00:20:49.817 --> 00:20:51.199
 front door and how that
 
 00:20:51.318 --> 00:20:52.619
 starts to help with the
 
 00:20:52.660 --> 00:20:54.541
 body and how the brain is functioning.
 
 00:20:55.261 --> 00:20:56.202
 But I think it's important
 
 00:20:56.222 --> 00:20:56.903
 for people to take
 
 00:20:56.983 --> 00:20:58.204
 inventory of how is your
 
 00:20:58.244 --> 00:20:59.185
 brain functioning, right?
 
 00:20:59.846 --> 00:21:01.326
 and going and getting a
 
 00:21:01.366 --> 00:21:02.728
 medication first and
 
 00:21:02.768 --> 00:21:04.248
 foremost as your first step
 
 00:21:04.307 --> 00:21:05.269
 to think that you're
 
 00:21:05.288 --> 00:21:06.588
 improving your brain health,
 
 00:21:07.109 --> 00:21:10.891
 I feel like that is a huge, huge mistake.
 
 00:21:13.112 --> 00:21:14.913
 Medication, in my opinion,
 
 00:21:15.493 --> 00:21:16.634
 and in my experience,
 
 00:21:16.733 --> 00:21:18.714
 should be the very last thing,
 
 00:21:19.255 --> 00:21:20.635
 the last resource,
 
 00:21:22.136 --> 00:21:23.616
 and reminding people that
 
 00:21:23.636 --> 00:21:24.597
 your brain doesn't even
 
 00:21:24.637 --> 00:21:25.738
 fully develop until you're
 
 00:21:25.758 --> 00:21:27.019
 around twenty-five years old.
 
 00:21:28.191 --> 00:21:29.571
 And so more and more people,
 
 00:21:30.333 --> 00:21:31.294
 especially young people,
 
 00:21:31.314 --> 00:21:35.116
 I see a lot of young people are anxious.
 
 00:21:35.356 --> 00:21:36.377
 They're not sleeping.
 
 00:21:36.557 --> 00:21:38.660
 They're on these devices and
 
 00:21:39.500 --> 00:21:41.903
 they're just so anxious.
 
 00:21:41.942 --> 00:21:42.864
 So of course they're not
 
 00:21:42.923 --> 00:21:44.285
 using their prefrontal cortex.
 
 00:21:45.405 --> 00:21:46.386
 All of us weren't using it
 
 00:21:46.487 --> 00:21:48.868
 anyways when we were younger.
 
 00:21:48.929 --> 00:21:50.691
 But thank God I didn't have
 
 00:21:50.770 --> 00:21:52.291
 cell phones when I was that age.
 
 00:21:52.332 --> 00:21:53.813
 Like I can't even imagine.
 
 00:21:54.513 --> 00:21:57.016
 So I think really paying
 
 00:21:57.036 --> 00:21:58.396
 attention to how your brain
 
 00:21:59.217 --> 00:22:00.637
 is functioning and the
 
 00:22:00.678 --> 00:22:01.499
 thoughts that are coming
 
 00:22:01.538 --> 00:22:03.160
 through and recognizing
 
 00:22:03.299 --> 00:22:05.842
 that you are energy first.
 
 00:22:05.882 --> 00:22:08.084
 First and foremost, we are all energetic.
 
 00:22:08.763 --> 00:22:10.384
 And so we have to pay
 
 00:22:10.404 --> 00:22:11.705
 attention to the energies
 
 00:22:11.746 --> 00:22:13.606
 that we're allowing to surround us.
 
 00:22:15.167 --> 00:22:16.068
 Even the thoughts of other
 
 00:22:16.128 --> 00:22:18.951
 people impact our physical body,
 
 00:22:19.030 --> 00:22:19.991
 which is crazy.
 
 00:22:21.133 --> 00:22:23.094
 But it's super powerful, right?
 
 00:22:24.537 --> 00:22:25.196
 Yeah.
 
 00:22:25.537 --> 00:22:26.636
 I think that it's been
 
 00:22:26.737 --> 00:22:28.557
 really challenging watching
 
 00:22:30.178 --> 00:22:31.438
 my child kind of go through
 
 00:22:31.478 --> 00:22:32.637
 this process that I had to
 
 00:22:32.678 --> 00:22:34.058
 go through with he wanted
 
 00:22:34.078 --> 00:22:35.239
 to choose to do medication,
 
 00:22:36.138 --> 00:22:37.278
 every single medication
 
 00:22:37.439 --> 00:22:40.180
 within twenty minutes to two hours.
 
 00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:43.799
 Horrible effects like floor rippling,
 
 00:22:44.299 --> 00:22:45.641
 space is not feeling right,
 
 00:22:45.681 --> 00:22:48.020
 kind of getting high off of a very,
 
 00:22:48.040 --> 00:22:49.641
 very low dose of either
 
 00:22:50.361 --> 00:22:52.741
 something that really
 
 00:22:53.521 --> 00:22:54.321
 And again,
 
 00:22:54.342 --> 00:22:55.461
 medication is something that's
 
 00:22:55.501 --> 00:22:56.682
 supportive for some people,
 
 00:22:56.762 --> 00:22:58.843
 but it shouldn't be the first thing.
 
 00:22:59.522 --> 00:23:01.943
 And then even the challenges
 
 00:23:01.963 --> 00:23:03.844
 with coming off of them.
 
 00:23:04.003 --> 00:23:05.864
 That's where I think the
 
 00:23:05.903 --> 00:23:07.064
 dangers are that people
 
 00:23:07.163 --> 00:23:08.644
 don't really get that
 
 00:23:08.684 --> 00:23:09.984
 informed consent ahead of time.
 
 00:23:10.025 --> 00:23:10.464
 Like, okay,
 
 00:23:10.505 --> 00:23:11.464
 this is the medication that
 
 00:23:11.484 --> 00:23:12.125
 you're going to take and
 
 00:23:12.144 --> 00:23:12.865
 it's going to help you with
 
 00:23:12.884 --> 00:23:14.246
 this or it should help you with this.
 
 00:23:14.685 --> 00:23:15.965
 But there's never any chat
 
 00:23:15.986 --> 00:23:17.145
 about what happens when I
 
 00:23:17.385 --> 00:23:18.405
 maybe decide that I'm done
 
 00:23:18.425 --> 00:23:19.346
 with it or I'm taking it
 
 00:23:19.366 --> 00:23:20.967
 for a short period of time in my journey.
 
 00:23:21.826 --> 00:23:22.768
 I'd love if you'd share a
 
 00:23:22.807 --> 00:23:23.548
 little bit about that
 
 00:23:23.588 --> 00:23:24.348
 because that's something
 
 00:23:24.368 --> 00:23:25.471
 that's not talked about.
 
 00:23:25.770 --> 00:23:26.571
 And I think it's really
 
 00:23:26.612 --> 00:23:28.053
 scary from what we've experienced.
 
 00:23:28.073 --> 00:23:29.134
 My son has now been off for
 
 00:23:29.193 --> 00:23:31.296
 four weeks on medication
 
 00:23:31.375 --> 00:23:32.817
 and he's doing neurofeedback,
 
 00:23:32.916 --> 00:23:35.138
 which is freaking phenomenal.
 
 00:23:35.159 --> 00:23:35.720
 I don't know if you want to
 
 00:23:35.740 --> 00:23:36.361
 talk about that at all,
 
 00:23:36.381 --> 00:23:37.361
 but I just feel like
 
 00:23:37.381 --> 00:23:38.261
 there's things that people
 
 00:23:38.281 --> 00:23:39.002
 aren't aware of
 
 00:23:39.202 --> 00:23:40.304
 specifically with
 
 00:23:40.423 --> 00:23:42.026
 medications and getting off of them.
 
 00:23:42.704 --> 00:23:43.005
 Yeah.
 
 00:23:43.045 --> 00:23:43.664
 So, I mean,
 
 00:23:43.724 --> 00:23:45.105
 this is where we ask questions.
 
 00:23:45.306 --> 00:23:46.546
 We're supposed to ask questions.
 
 00:23:46.605 --> 00:23:47.925
 So if your doctor is going
 
 00:23:47.965 --> 00:23:50.666
 to put you on mind-altering medications,
 
 00:23:51.446 --> 00:23:52.826
 you should be asking,
 
 00:23:53.446 --> 00:23:54.826
 what training do you have
 
 00:23:55.047 --> 00:23:56.907
 to get me off of this medication?
 
 00:23:57.587 --> 00:23:59.768
 How long should I be on this medication?
 
 00:24:00.228 --> 00:24:01.469
 What are the side effects of
 
 00:24:01.509 --> 00:24:02.669
 this medication in
 
 00:24:02.709 --> 00:24:05.769
 conjunction with other medications,
 
 00:24:06.430 --> 00:24:07.890
 with supplements I take?
 
 00:24:08.884 --> 00:24:10.905
 Like we need to ask more
 
 00:24:10.945 --> 00:24:13.346
 questions and quit allowing
 
 00:24:14.188 --> 00:24:15.407
 a doctor to give us
 
 00:24:15.468 --> 00:24:16.949
 medicine and we don't ask a
 
 00:24:16.989 --> 00:24:19.450
 question and we just start taking it.
 
 00:24:19.849 --> 00:24:21.211
 Like this to me is like,
 
 00:24:21.391 --> 00:24:23.112
 this is exactly what I did, by the way.
 
 00:24:23.152 --> 00:24:23.912
 This is why I'm so
 
 00:24:23.991 --> 00:24:24.853
 passionate about it because
 
 00:24:25.153 --> 00:24:26.473
 I did not ask a question.
 
 00:24:26.574 --> 00:24:28.174
 I was twenty two years old
 
 00:24:29.055 --> 00:24:30.195
 and put on three mind
 
 00:24:30.236 --> 00:24:31.236
 altering medications
 
 00:24:31.496 --> 00:24:33.096
 without a fully developed brain.
 
 00:24:34.857 --> 00:24:36.198
 Like to me,
 
 00:24:36.238 --> 00:24:38.398
 that is like insane and younger
 
 00:24:38.419 --> 00:24:39.179
 and younger and younger
 
 00:24:39.219 --> 00:24:41.279
 people are being put on
 
 00:24:41.319 --> 00:24:42.259
 these medications.
 
 00:24:42.980 --> 00:24:44.101
 And the other thing is,
 
 00:24:46.040 --> 00:24:47.001
 we don't even know how to
 
 00:24:47.061 --> 00:24:49.041
 measure brain chemistry, right?
 
 00:24:49.142 --> 00:24:50.123
 Like you're not gonna get
 
 00:24:50.182 --> 00:24:53.243
 put on a heart medication
 
 00:24:53.443 --> 00:24:55.284
 without testing your blood pressure,
 
 00:24:55.644 --> 00:24:57.545
 without doing some type of
 
 00:24:57.644 --> 00:24:59.086
 scan or some type of
 
 00:24:59.145 --> 00:25:00.266
 testing of the heart.
 
 00:25:01.971 --> 00:25:05.173
 So this is, this is Russian roulette.
 
 00:25:05.394 --> 00:25:07.515
 This is a game of figuring
 
 00:25:07.674 --> 00:25:09.476
 out what could work.
 
 00:25:10.557 --> 00:25:10.737
 Yeah.
 
 00:25:10.817 --> 00:25:11.738
 It's a lot of guessing.
 
 00:25:11.857 --> 00:25:14.179
 It feels like it is.
 
 00:25:14.318 --> 00:25:16.460
 It is a lot of guessing, right?
 
 00:25:16.500 --> 00:25:17.760
 So do you try this?
 
 00:25:18.582 --> 00:25:20.001
 Do you have anything to speak on?
 
 00:25:20.182 --> 00:25:20.423
 You know,
 
 00:25:20.482 --> 00:25:21.542
 everyone's of course unique in
 
 00:25:21.563 --> 00:25:22.423
 their bodies different,
 
 00:25:22.523 --> 00:25:24.204
 but I know one thing that I
 
 00:25:24.244 --> 00:25:24.964
 don't know if everyone
 
 00:25:25.005 --> 00:25:27.366
 thinks about also as well is, um,
 
 00:25:28.395 --> 00:25:30.218
 your genetic expressions,
 
 00:25:30.397 --> 00:25:31.558
 specific things that maybe
 
 00:25:31.679 --> 00:25:32.559
 are confiscating your
 
 00:25:32.700 --> 00:25:34.142
 detoxification pathways.
 
 00:25:34.602 --> 00:25:36.804
 So that may, you know, your liver, kidneys,
 
 00:25:36.844 --> 00:25:38.806
 methylation, things that, you know,
 
 00:25:38.865 --> 00:25:40.567
 people don't have that awareness as well,
 
 00:25:40.587 --> 00:25:41.469
 that also could be
 
 00:25:41.509 --> 00:25:42.750
 contributing factors to
 
 00:25:43.190 --> 00:25:44.551
 symptoms for mental health issues.
 
 00:25:45.406 --> 00:25:46.928
 Yeah, great point.
 
 00:25:46.988 --> 00:25:48.709
 And this is where I always remind people,
 
 00:25:48.909 --> 00:25:50.028
 get back to the basics.
 
 00:25:50.169 --> 00:25:52.210
 So about forty percent of
 
 00:25:52.230 --> 00:25:53.651
 people have an issue with methylation.
 
 00:25:53.871 --> 00:25:54.671
 Some of you may say, well,
 
 00:25:54.691 --> 00:25:55.551
 what is methylation?
 
 00:25:56.051 --> 00:25:57.613
 Methylation is essentially
 
 00:25:58.333 --> 00:26:00.794
 we put something in our body, a vitamins,
 
 00:26:01.094 --> 00:26:01.694
 anything,
 
 00:26:02.355 --> 00:26:04.695
 and our our body converts it to
 
 00:26:04.736 --> 00:26:06.277
 make it bioavailable so we
 
 00:26:06.297 --> 00:26:07.757
 can use those raw materials
 
 00:26:08.278 --> 00:26:10.618
 to do basic necessary things,
 
 00:26:11.318 --> 00:26:12.640
 functions of the human body.
 
 00:26:13.380 --> 00:26:15.240
 So if you're not working and
 
 00:26:15.280 --> 00:26:17.321
 you don't have access to raw materials,
 
 00:26:17.362 --> 00:26:19.503
 this is like building a house, right?
 
 00:26:19.584 --> 00:26:20.124
 Like, oh,
 
 00:26:20.144 --> 00:26:21.944
 we don't have enough screws or we
 
 00:26:21.984 --> 00:26:23.425
 don't have enough nails or
 
 00:26:23.465 --> 00:26:24.205
 we're going to miss a few
 
 00:26:24.246 --> 00:26:25.366
 pieces of wood here.
 
 00:26:26.688 --> 00:26:29.048
 It's not going to work out so great.
 
 00:26:29.189 --> 00:26:31.710
 You could get a standing structure, yes,
 
 00:26:31.851 --> 00:26:35.292
 but there's issues there.
 
 00:26:35.772 --> 00:26:38.094
 So I always say go back to the basics.
 
 00:26:38.233 --> 00:26:39.835
 We should be eating fruits
 
 00:26:39.954 --> 00:26:40.955
 and vegetables regularly.
 
 00:26:41.655 --> 00:26:44.559
 Meats, fats, seeds, nuts.
 
 00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:47.722
 I mean, nutrition is not confusing.
 
 00:26:48.564 --> 00:26:49.625
 It's really simple.
 
 00:26:49.705 --> 00:26:51.407
 But with advertising to us,
 
 00:26:51.508 --> 00:26:53.170
 it has become very confusing.
 
 00:26:53.410 --> 00:26:55.571
 I believe and I see from my
 
 00:26:55.592 --> 00:26:57.294
 own experience with the clients I see,
 
 00:26:57.354 --> 00:26:59.936
 a lot of them are deficient in minerals.
 
 00:27:00.057 --> 00:27:00.137
 Yeah.
 
 00:27:01.098 --> 00:27:03.240
 And then also in terms of vitamins,
 
 00:27:03.821 --> 00:27:04.082
 you know,
 
 00:27:04.102 --> 00:27:06.365
 making sure you're getting a
 
 00:27:06.424 --> 00:27:08.866
 vitamin in its most bioavailable form.
 
 00:27:09.528 --> 00:27:11.029
 This is why I created my own
 
 00:27:11.230 --> 00:27:12.832
 line of nutraceuticals
 
 00:27:12.912 --> 00:27:14.854
 specifically for the brain,
 
 00:27:15.394 --> 00:27:16.576
 because I was finding I was
 
 00:27:16.615 --> 00:27:17.336
 sending people to the
 
 00:27:17.356 --> 00:27:18.397
 health food stores or
 
 00:27:18.417 --> 00:27:20.039
 telling them to go online to the wild,
 
 00:27:20.059 --> 00:27:20.721
 wild west.
 
 00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:22.803
 to order, you know,
 
 00:27:23.022 --> 00:27:24.403
 B vitamins or this or that.
 
 00:27:24.443 --> 00:27:25.424
 And then I'm realizing that
 
 00:27:25.444 --> 00:27:26.846
 they're getting on methylated,
 
 00:27:26.865 --> 00:27:27.987
 that they're getting stuff
 
 00:27:28.027 --> 00:27:30.789
 that is full of magnesium stearate there.
 
 00:27:31.029 --> 00:27:32.090
 It's just full of stuff that
 
 00:27:32.191 --> 00:27:33.872
 actually is not helping.
 
 00:27:34.712 --> 00:27:34.972
 Um,
 
 00:27:35.093 --> 00:27:37.915
 and so it's really important to know
 
 00:27:37.996 --> 00:27:39.297
 what your body is able to
 
 00:27:39.356 --> 00:27:40.458
 process or what it's not.
 
 00:27:40.817 --> 00:27:42.098
 And I just say we should all
 
 00:27:42.179 --> 00:27:43.058
 act like our body's not
 
 00:27:43.119 --> 00:27:44.119
 processing properly.
 
 00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:45.760
 So we should, you know,
 
 00:27:45.961 --> 00:27:47.342
 supplement accordingly
 
 00:27:47.362 --> 00:27:47.781
 because if you're
 
 00:27:47.801 --> 00:27:48.542
 supplementing with the
 
 00:27:48.643 --> 00:27:50.023
 right good products,
 
 00:27:50.064 --> 00:27:51.203
 then you don't have to
 
 00:27:51.223 --> 00:27:52.224
 worry about methylation.
 
 00:27:52.704 --> 00:27:55.866
 And then the other thing is eating well,
 
 00:27:57.147 --> 00:27:58.449
 drinking water.
 
 00:27:59.229 --> 00:28:00.890
 I mean, all of these things are important.
 
 00:28:01.230 --> 00:28:02.050
 If you haven't,
 
 00:28:02.877 --> 00:28:03.518
 you know,
 
 00:28:03.557 --> 00:28:06.199
 had a good solid diet for sixty
 
 00:28:06.239 --> 00:28:07.038
 to ninety days,
 
 00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:08.339
 if you haven't been going
 
 00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:09.539
 outside for at least an
 
 00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:11.000
 hour every single day,
 
 00:28:11.040 --> 00:28:12.361
 putting your feet in the grass,
 
 00:28:12.421 --> 00:28:13.582
 hanging out in nature,
 
 00:28:14.041 --> 00:28:15.001
 if you're not sleeping
 
 00:28:15.061 --> 00:28:16.923
 seven to eight hours every single night,
 
 00:28:17.282 --> 00:28:20.324
 if you're not, you know, having a hobby,
 
 00:28:20.663 --> 00:28:23.444
 a purpose, purpose is so important.
 
 00:28:24.424 --> 00:28:26.066
 You know, if you're not doing these things,
 
 00:28:26.086 --> 00:28:27.046
 you're not having good
 
 00:28:27.105 --> 00:28:28.386
 positive conversations and
 
 00:28:28.426 --> 00:28:29.287
 good relationships.
 
 00:28:29.386 --> 00:28:30.567
 If you're not doing like
 
 00:28:30.606 --> 00:28:32.288
 those five basic things,
 
 00:28:33.961 --> 00:28:36.784
 You need to start doing those first.
 
 00:28:36.923 --> 00:28:37.964
 I would highly recommend
 
 00:28:38.005 --> 00:28:39.665
 that you start working into
 
 00:28:39.705 --> 00:28:41.886
 those things first to
 
 00:28:41.946 --> 00:28:45.690
 create that support around you.
 
 00:28:45.869 --> 00:28:47.111
 And so your body and your
 
 00:28:47.151 --> 00:28:49.432
 brain can function in a way
 
 00:28:49.451 --> 00:28:50.633
 that is supportive.
 
 00:28:51.473 --> 00:28:53.575
 But I think too often, yeah,
 
 00:28:53.835 --> 00:28:56.136
 we go to the bottle first and it's like,
 
 00:28:56.636 --> 00:28:56.916
 you know,
 
 00:28:57.017 --> 00:28:58.597
 when's the last time you had a
 
 00:28:58.637 --> 00:29:00.920
 green leafy salad and ate blueberries?
 
 00:29:00.980 --> 00:29:01.140
 Yeah.
 
 00:29:01.359 --> 00:29:03.760
 I mean, these are important basic things,
 
 00:29:03.780 --> 00:29:04.381
 but I think they're
 
 00:29:04.500 --> 00:29:06.961
 overlooked just because of
 
 00:29:07.000 --> 00:29:08.682
 the culture we live in in
 
 00:29:08.761 --> 00:29:10.281
 terms of consumption, consumption,
 
 00:29:10.321 --> 00:29:11.041
 consumption,
 
 00:29:11.423 --> 00:29:13.522
 competition over collaboration.
 
 00:29:14.982 --> 00:29:17.284
 So it's a culture thing as
 
 00:29:17.364 --> 00:29:19.184
 well that we really need to
 
 00:29:19.325 --> 00:29:21.045
 override because we're not
 
 00:29:21.404 --> 00:29:24.046
 programmed to want to heal
 
 00:29:24.105 --> 00:29:25.685
 ourselves like we used to
 
 00:29:25.726 --> 00:29:26.506
 when we used to live in
 
 00:29:26.566 --> 00:29:33.047
 villages and we used to have –
 
 00:29:29.989 --> 00:29:32.075
 everyone would help each other.
 
 00:29:32.095 --> 00:29:33.659
 And that was a beautiful thing.
 
 00:29:33.699 --> 00:29:35.964
 And now it's not like that
 
 00:29:36.005 --> 00:29:36.666
 that much anymore.
 
 00:29:37.781 --> 00:29:38.883
 Well, like you said earlier,
 
 00:29:38.942 --> 00:29:40.243
 with the frontal lobe kind
 
 00:29:40.284 --> 00:29:41.244
 of going offline,
 
 00:29:41.305 --> 00:29:42.526
 our executive functioning
 
 00:29:42.586 --> 00:29:43.405
 that we can think and
 
 00:29:43.425 --> 00:29:44.767
 connect the dots between things.
 
 00:29:44.866 --> 00:29:45.988
 And when we go through trauma,
 
 00:29:46.087 --> 00:29:47.509
 like the collective trauma of COVID,
 
 00:29:47.930 --> 00:29:48.930
 that kind of shuts down.
 
 00:29:48.950 --> 00:29:50.491
 And being able to see or think that way,
 
 00:29:50.511 --> 00:29:51.271
 it doesn't matter how many
 
 00:29:51.311 --> 00:29:53.153
 PhDs you have or how smart you are.
 
 00:29:53.913 --> 00:29:55.815
 It still is not operating the right way.
 
 00:29:55.875 --> 00:29:57.076
 So I feel like thinking our
 
 00:29:57.115 --> 00:29:58.477
 way out of it is not the answer.
 
 00:29:58.798 --> 00:29:59.538
 It never works.
 
 00:30:00.278 --> 00:30:01.199
 Downregulating the nervous
 
 00:30:01.219 --> 00:30:01.940
 system and doing all the
 
 00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:02.681
 things you're sharing.
 
 00:30:03.060 --> 00:30:03.861
 But I find it really...
 
 00:30:04.701 --> 00:30:06.362
 just so fascinating because, yeah,
 
 00:30:06.382 --> 00:30:08.343
 we do live in a culture of competition.
 
 00:30:09.222 --> 00:30:10.423
 And to me,
 
 00:30:10.442 --> 00:30:12.084
 I look at it from this broader
 
 00:30:12.104 --> 00:30:12.884
 perspective, like, OK,
 
 00:30:12.943 --> 00:30:14.324
 if we are trying to really
 
 00:30:14.364 --> 00:30:15.924
 compete and play the world
 
 00:30:15.964 --> 00:30:17.944
 game of whether the local game,
 
 00:30:17.964 --> 00:30:18.585
 the regional game,
 
 00:30:18.605 --> 00:30:21.105
 the world game of being better, competing,
 
 00:30:21.125 --> 00:30:22.026
 coming out on top,
 
 00:30:22.086 --> 00:30:23.926
 whatever that that winning looks like,
 
 00:30:23.946 --> 00:30:25.366
 whatever that standard of winning is.
 
 00:30:26.307 --> 00:30:28.588
 Why not be well rested so
 
 00:30:28.608 --> 00:30:30.230
 that you have the stamina?
 
 00:30:30.371 --> 00:30:31.771
 Why not have better mental
 
 00:30:31.811 --> 00:30:33.413
 health in your your entire
 
 00:30:34.054 --> 00:30:35.555
 economic system so you can
 
 00:30:35.595 --> 00:30:36.935
 compete your your community,
 
 00:30:36.996 --> 00:30:38.817
 your our citizens can
 
 00:30:38.857 --> 00:30:40.239
 create some sort of
 
 00:30:40.298 --> 00:30:41.480
 innovative product or
 
 00:30:41.539 --> 00:30:42.361
 something that creates
 
 00:30:42.381 --> 00:30:43.461
 something on the market for
 
 00:30:43.481 --> 00:30:44.603
 bringing in more income and more.
 
 00:30:44.942 --> 00:30:45.202
 You know,
 
 00:30:45.563 --> 00:30:47.565
 lessening poverty and improving health.
 
 00:30:48.125 --> 00:30:50.086
 Why does that not compute
 
 00:30:50.405 --> 00:30:51.366
 that that is the way to
 
 00:30:51.406 --> 00:30:52.907
 complete compete in a
 
 00:30:52.948 --> 00:30:55.088
 global market when we are not winning?
 
 00:30:55.430 --> 00:30:56.470
 We are not winning.
 
 00:30:57.570 --> 00:30:58.672
 I know that's like a side thing,
 
 00:30:58.692 --> 00:30:59.531
 but I don't know if you
 
 00:30:59.551 --> 00:31:00.633
 want to talk on that,
 
 00:31:00.653 --> 00:31:02.433
 but it does not make any sense to me.
 
 00:31:03.128 --> 00:31:03.729
 Well, I mean,
 
 00:31:03.868 --> 00:31:09.372
 I think also it has to do with – I mean,
 
 00:31:10.092 --> 00:31:11.051
 I'm kind of – I could be
 
 00:31:11.092 --> 00:31:12.653
 maybe considered a conspiracy theorist,
 
 00:31:12.673 --> 00:31:13.712
 but I don't think so,
 
 00:31:14.032 --> 00:31:17.434
 is that if you keep certain people down,
 
 00:31:19.015 --> 00:31:26.251
 you know, just imagine if every person –
 
 00:31:24.423 --> 00:31:26.506
 lived their true authentic life,
 
 00:31:26.826 --> 00:31:29.807
 meaning every person who is
 
 00:31:29.827 --> 00:31:30.969
 showing up to a job they
 
 00:31:31.009 --> 00:31:32.891
 don't like every day that is unhappy,
 
 00:31:33.290 --> 00:31:34.471
 goes home, yells at their kids,
 
 00:31:34.511 --> 00:31:36.813
 drinks beer every night, just feeling,
 
 00:31:38.674 --> 00:31:41.096
 what if they decided, you know,
 
 00:31:41.297 --> 00:31:43.077
 I am really into cars.
 
 00:31:43.778 --> 00:31:45.779
 I love rebuilding old cars.
 
 00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:48.701
 And they got to do that for their life.
 
 00:31:49.083 --> 00:31:50.304
 And they got to figure out a
 
 00:31:50.324 --> 00:31:51.904
 way to follow their dream
 
 00:31:53.196 --> 00:31:55.238
 and completely be in that
 
 00:31:55.397 --> 00:31:58.978
 world I mean that would be
 
 00:31:59.018 --> 00:32:00.138
 so powerful but what
 
 00:32:00.199 --> 00:32:01.679
 happens is people get in
 
 00:32:01.719 --> 00:32:03.359
 the rat race I have been
 
 00:32:03.400 --> 00:32:05.400
 there you get in the rat
 
 00:32:05.440 --> 00:32:07.381
 race of going to a job
 
 00:32:07.441 --> 00:32:08.401
 every day to collect a
 
 00:32:08.441 --> 00:32:09.580
 paycheck and maybe you do
 
 00:32:09.641 --> 00:32:10.621
 enjoy it and maybe you're
 
 00:32:10.661 --> 00:32:13.281
 good at it but you're not thriving
 
 00:32:14.061 --> 00:32:16.123
 You're not like living in a
 
 00:32:16.202 --> 00:32:18.263
 way that is so abundant.
 
 00:32:18.463 --> 00:32:21.265
 And I did this for eighteen years.
 
 00:32:22.125 --> 00:32:23.326
 It wasn't until I turned
 
 00:32:23.405 --> 00:32:24.865
 forty years old that I
 
 00:32:24.925 --> 00:32:27.326
 walked away from a six figure salary.
 
 00:32:27.886 --> 00:32:30.147
 Check all the boxes, insurance,
 
 00:32:30.528 --> 00:32:33.209
 health benefits, you know, retirement,
 
 00:32:33.409 --> 00:32:34.009
 all of that.
 
 00:32:34.930 --> 00:32:37.030
 And it felt so scary to me.
 
 00:32:37.671 --> 00:32:38.431
 I was like literally
 
 00:32:38.471 --> 00:32:39.912
 paralyzed for two years and
 
 00:32:39.951 --> 00:32:40.951
 couldn't make the decision
 
 00:32:41.011 --> 00:32:42.492
 to just step away.
 
 00:32:43.093 --> 00:32:44.153
 And I needed to step away
 
 00:32:44.193 --> 00:32:45.814
 because I was good at the job.
 
 00:32:46.454 --> 00:32:47.474
 I was helping people,
 
 00:32:47.714 --> 00:32:49.955
 but it wasn't to my full capacity.
 
 00:32:50.155 --> 00:32:51.355
 So something felt empty
 
 00:32:51.395 --> 00:32:52.656
 inside of me and I felt
 
 00:32:52.696 --> 00:32:54.758
 like just not right inside.
 
 00:32:55.801 --> 00:32:57.343
 And it wasn't until I walked
 
 00:32:57.383 --> 00:32:59.124
 away from that and started
 
 00:32:59.163 --> 00:33:01.345
 to fully invest myself into
 
 00:33:01.404 --> 00:33:03.925
 Happy Whole You that I have
 
 00:33:04.046 --> 00:33:05.886
 the most clarity in my life.
 
 00:33:06.707 --> 00:33:08.607
 I have like the best blood
 
 00:33:08.647 --> 00:33:10.648
 work I've ever had in my life.
 
 00:33:11.409 --> 00:33:13.369
 I have an abundance of
 
 00:33:13.950 --> 00:33:16.652
 social outlets and just
 
 00:33:16.892 --> 00:33:18.932
 time with my children and
 
 00:33:18.972 --> 00:33:20.012
 with my husband.
 
 00:33:20.874 --> 00:33:23.335
 And what's crazy is
 
 00:33:24.134 --> 00:33:26.415
 everything else took care of itself.
 
 00:33:26.615 --> 00:33:28.896
 And that's trusting, right?
 
 00:33:28.938 --> 00:33:31.318
 Like when we trust in the process of life.
 
 00:33:32.118 --> 00:33:34.039
 And if you can believe in
 
 00:33:34.059 --> 00:33:36.101
 yourself enough and your
 
 00:33:36.121 --> 00:33:37.701
 dream and what you truly want,
 
 00:33:37.842 --> 00:33:40.103
 and you follow it your way, not how...
 
 00:33:40.944 --> 00:33:42.027
 you know these people on
 
 00:33:42.067 --> 00:33:43.009
 social media oh make ten
 
 00:33:43.048 --> 00:33:43.871
 thousand dollars a month
 
 00:33:43.911 --> 00:33:45.554
 and I'll show you how no no no
 
 00:33:46.262 --> 00:33:47.844
 Like literally you have an
 
 00:33:47.923 --> 00:33:49.484
 organic blueprint within
 
 00:33:49.525 --> 00:33:50.925
 your soul and how you're
 
 00:33:50.945 --> 00:33:52.067
 supposed to show up and how
 
 00:33:52.086 --> 00:33:52.907
 you're supposed to help
 
 00:33:52.948 --> 00:33:54.188
 move humanity forward.
 
 00:33:54.949 --> 00:33:56.890
 And if you can tap into that,
 
 00:33:57.691 --> 00:33:59.511
 I promise you things are
 
 00:33:59.551 --> 00:34:00.792
 going to take care of themselves.
 
 00:34:01.153 --> 00:34:02.814
 And maybe the way you do
 
 00:34:02.834 --> 00:34:04.174
 that is you do have a job
 
 00:34:04.194 --> 00:34:05.195
 that you go to and you
 
 00:34:05.395 --> 00:34:07.538
 leverage where you're at so
 
 00:34:07.637 --> 00:34:09.719
 you can do your soul's work
 
 00:34:09.778 --> 00:34:12.240
 and your purpose as a side
 
 00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:14.461
 thing for a while, right?
 
 00:34:14.481 --> 00:34:15.003
 There's not...
 
 00:34:15.963 --> 00:34:17.463
 right or wrong way to do it.
 
 00:34:17.625 --> 00:34:18.545
 And well,
 
 00:34:18.684 --> 00:34:19.865
 I'll say there is a wrong way to
 
 00:34:19.905 --> 00:34:20.867
 do it when you're doing it
 
 00:34:20.887 --> 00:34:22.027
 like other people and
 
 00:34:22.047 --> 00:34:23.369
 you're not doing it like
 
 00:34:23.809 --> 00:34:25.570
 you and how you're supposed to do it.
 
 00:34:26.150 --> 00:34:27.771
 That's when we're on the wrong path.
 
 00:34:28.713 --> 00:34:31.856
 And so I think most people
 
 00:34:31.976 --> 00:34:34.317
 are not living their true authentic life.
 
 00:34:34.376 --> 00:34:35.898
 And so that's why we feel so
 
 00:34:35.938 --> 00:34:37.860
 dysregulated and people's
 
 00:34:38.320 --> 00:34:39.681
 immune systems are down.
 
 00:34:39.942 --> 00:34:40.282
 People's
 
 00:34:45.865 --> 00:34:47.487
 And, yeah,
 
 00:34:47.567 --> 00:34:49.047
 I think that if we go back to
 
 00:34:49.148 --> 00:34:52.170
 our soul and who we are, I mean, you know,
 
 00:34:52.230 --> 00:34:52.909
 as a medium,
 
 00:34:52.969 --> 00:34:54.731
 you probably see this all the time,
 
 00:34:55.152 --> 00:34:55.592
 you know,
 
 00:34:56.172 --> 00:34:58.052
 spirits and guides sharing with
 
 00:34:58.092 --> 00:35:00.275
 you or whoever's in front of you, like,
 
 00:35:00.514 --> 00:35:02.856
 hey, tell them everything is okay.
 
 00:35:02.896 --> 00:35:05.338
 You are supported.
 
 00:35:05.438 --> 00:35:07.119
 And so I think we forget
 
 00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:08.559
 that we are supported all
 
 00:35:08.599 --> 00:35:09.539
 the time when we're in our
 
 00:35:09.579 --> 00:35:10.701
 true authentic self and
 
 00:35:10.800 --> 00:35:12.601
 following our soul's purpose.
 
 00:35:12.621 --> 00:35:12.702
 Yeah.
 
 00:35:14.186 --> 00:35:15.927
 I think that the work and
 
 00:35:15.967 --> 00:35:16.969
 the journey that you have
 
 00:35:17.009 --> 00:35:18.030
 done and that so many
 
 00:35:18.090 --> 00:35:19.289
 listening are either
 
 00:35:19.349 --> 00:35:20.891
 starting or they're in the middle of,
 
 00:35:20.911 --> 00:35:21.512
 or they're getting back,
 
 00:35:21.612 --> 00:35:22.733
 jumping back onto this
 
 00:35:22.793 --> 00:35:25.074
 journey of finding the self,
 
 00:35:25.173 --> 00:35:26.795
 like the true authentic self.
 
 00:35:26.815 --> 00:35:28.755
 You can't connect with it.
 
 00:35:29.056 --> 00:35:31.077
 You can't do it and live
 
 00:35:31.097 --> 00:35:32.478
 your purpose until you know who you are.
 
 00:35:32.719 --> 00:35:34.159
 And those processes you said
 
 00:35:34.239 --> 00:35:36.360
 of eating well, connecting with yourself,
 
 00:35:36.420 --> 00:35:38.103
 reprogramming, getting sleep,
 
 00:35:38.483 --> 00:35:39.523
 all those I think are part
 
 00:35:39.563 --> 00:35:40.063
 of the journey.
 
 00:35:40.463 --> 00:35:42.764
 That is part of the process.
 
 00:35:42.965 --> 00:35:43.766
 And then you get to that
 
 00:35:43.806 --> 00:35:44.686
 part where then you have
 
 00:35:44.726 --> 00:35:46.047
 the awareness of self and
 
 00:35:46.347 --> 00:35:47.507
 your authentic purpose.
 
 00:35:47.887 --> 00:35:48.469
 And then, of course,
 
 00:35:48.528 --> 00:35:50.849
 the bravery and developing that journey,
 
 00:35:50.869 --> 00:35:51.690
 that part of the journey of
 
 00:35:51.731 --> 00:35:53.070
 leveraging and whatever
 
 00:35:53.110 --> 00:35:53.992
 that looks like for each
 
 00:35:54.032 --> 00:35:55.092
 person when they start
 
 00:35:55.112 --> 00:35:56.893
 jumping into the expression of that.
 
 00:35:56.934 --> 00:35:58.755
 But I love living right now.
 
 00:35:59.954 --> 00:36:00.534
 Oh my gosh.
 
 00:36:00.695 --> 00:36:01.476
 I'm getting goosebumps.
 
 00:36:01.576 --> 00:36:03.096
 It is so incredible.
 
 00:36:03.255 --> 00:36:03.516
 The,
 
 00:36:03.757 --> 00:36:05.317
 the leaps and bounds of what I would
 
 00:36:05.336 --> 00:36:06.617
 say is our conscious, you know,
 
 00:36:06.717 --> 00:36:08.657
 soul human evolution of
 
 00:36:08.697 --> 00:36:09.918
 moving into just this,
 
 00:36:10.219 --> 00:36:11.900
 just what you did and just what, you know,
 
 00:36:11.920 --> 00:36:13.519
 what I'm doing when I'm, when we are here,
 
 00:36:13.539 --> 00:36:14.099
 you know,
 
 00:36:14.119 --> 00:36:15.081
 really trying to inspire our
 
 00:36:15.101 --> 00:36:17.101
 guests to do our listeners and,
 
 00:36:17.181 --> 00:36:17.981
 and all of us around and
 
 00:36:18.001 --> 00:36:19.141
 we're walking each other home with this,
 
 00:36:19.161 --> 00:36:20.282
 like Ram Dass says, you know,
 
 00:36:20.322 --> 00:36:22.623
 it's something that is so cool.
 
 00:36:23.083 --> 00:36:25.304
 It is right now.
 
 00:36:25.804 --> 00:36:26.244
 It is.
 
 00:36:27.505 --> 00:36:29.146
 One thing I do want to throw in here is,
 
 00:36:30.144 --> 00:36:31.586
 Because some of you may be saying, oh,
 
 00:36:31.686 --> 00:36:32.126
 Anna Marie,
 
 00:36:32.146 --> 00:36:33.789
 but you don't know what I'm
 
 00:36:33.829 --> 00:36:35.891
 going through.
 
 00:36:36.032 --> 00:36:36.172
 Right?
 
 00:36:36.192 --> 00:36:39.155
 You don't know what I've been through.
 
 00:36:39.375 --> 00:36:40.335
 And you're right.
 
 00:36:40.777 --> 00:36:42.257
 But I want to remind all of
 
 00:36:42.358 --> 00:36:49.686
 us that we get to go through the good,
 
 00:36:49.987 --> 00:36:51.648
 the bad, and the ugly.
 
 00:36:52.885 --> 00:36:54.626
 We get to go through that.
 
 00:36:54.766 --> 00:36:56.047
 It is a gift.
 
 00:36:57.047 --> 00:36:59.467
 So when you can recognize
 
 00:36:59.688 --> 00:37:00.608
 the things you've been
 
 00:37:00.628 --> 00:37:02.108
 through in your life and
 
 00:37:02.148 --> 00:37:03.190
 you view them through the
 
 00:37:03.289 --> 00:37:05.831
 lens as if they are a gift,
 
 00:37:07.112 --> 00:37:08.552
 and I have some things in
 
 00:37:08.612 --> 00:37:10.293
 my life that are not.
 
 00:37:11.525 --> 00:37:13.146
 You would not look at them and say,
 
 00:37:13.286 --> 00:37:14.347
 that was a gift.
 
 00:37:14.789 --> 00:37:15.369
 However,
 
 00:37:15.710 --> 00:37:17.170
 I choose to look at them as a gift
 
 00:37:17.231 --> 00:37:19.393
 now because of the lessons
 
 00:37:19.432 --> 00:37:20.954
 that they taught me,
 
 00:37:21.014 --> 00:37:22.916
 because of how I have developed.
 
 00:37:23.657 --> 00:37:24.858
 Nobody gets to go through
 
 00:37:24.878 --> 00:37:27.141
 this lifetime and this human experience
 
 00:37:27.762 --> 00:37:30.103
 easy smooth sailing there
 
 00:37:30.123 --> 00:37:31.163
 are going to be ups and
 
 00:37:31.202 --> 00:37:32.182
 downs as much as I've
 
 00:37:32.222 --> 00:37:33.864
 worked on myself I know the
 
 00:37:33.943 --> 00:37:35.764
 universe and god is going
 
 00:37:35.804 --> 00:37:37.965
 to bring me more challenges
 
 00:37:38.425 --> 00:37:40.226
 because every time I get
 
 00:37:40.306 --> 00:37:41.445
 met with a challenge in
 
 00:37:41.505 --> 00:37:43.527
 front of me yes it doesn't
 
 00:37:43.606 --> 00:37:45.907
 always feel great sometimes
 
 00:37:45.987 --> 00:37:47.248
 I feel like how in the
 
 00:37:47.447 --> 00:37:48.527
 world am I going to get
 
 00:37:48.568 --> 00:37:50.068
 through this but then I go
 
 00:37:50.148 --> 00:37:51.768
 back to who I am from a
 
 00:37:51.849 --> 00:37:54.010
 soul level and I say you chose this
 
 00:37:55.230 --> 00:37:57.351
 You have been chosen to go through this.
 
 00:37:57.990 --> 00:37:59.251
 And what is going to be on
 
 00:37:59.271 --> 00:38:00.351
 the other side of this?
 
 00:38:01.211 --> 00:38:02.371
 And there's always something
 
 00:38:02.411 --> 00:38:03.672
 beautiful on the other side of it.
 
 00:38:03.773 --> 00:38:05.333
 And so I just,
 
 00:38:05.492 --> 00:38:07.614
 I strongly encourage you to
 
 00:38:07.833 --> 00:38:10.375
 get out of the mindset of, yeah,
 
 00:38:10.394 --> 00:38:12.014
 but you don't know what's happened to me.
 
 00:38:12.074 --> 00:38:13.594
 And my life is so hard.
 
 00:38:13.976 --> 00:38:15.695
 Because if you keep saying those things,
 
 00:38:15.715 --> 00:38:16.416
 your brain's going to
 
 00:38:16.476 --> 00:38:17.757
 filter everything to make
 
 00:38:17.777 --> 00:38:18.817
 you see everything that's
 
 00:38:18.836 --> 00:38:19.677
 hard in your life.
 
 00:38:20.177 --> 00:38:22.197
 And life is not supposed to be easy,
 
 00:38:22.217 --> 00:38:22.318
 right?
 
 00:38:22.458 --> 00:38:22.757
 right?
 
 00:38:22.918 --> 00:38:24.278
 It's supposed to be challenging.
 
 00:38:24.340 --> 00:38:25.539
 It really is because that's
 
 00:38:25.559 --> 00:38:26.380
 what develops you.
 
 00:38:26.400 --> 00:38:27.782
 That's what evolves your soul.
 
 00:38:28.742 --> 00:38:29.664
 So I just want to remind
 
 00:38:29.704 --> 00:38:31.445
 everyone that we are chosen
 
 00:38:31.505 --> 00:38:32.905
 to go through those hard times.
 
 00:38:33.786 --> 00:38:35.228
 And I also believe that
 
 00:38:35.288 --> 00:38:37.929
 before we came to earth, that we agreed,
 
 00:38:37.949 --> 00:38:38.831
 we had like this soul
 
 00:38:38.871 --> 00:38:40.331
 contract that we agreed to
 
 00:38:40.371 --> 00:38:41.393
 go through what we went through.
 
 00:38:41.413 --> 00:38:42.813
 So then I also remind myself,
 
 00:38:42.873 --> 00:38:44.454
 you pick this, you chose this.
 
 00:38:44.494 --> 00:38:44.574
 Yeah.
 
 00:38:44.594 --> 00:38:44.795
 So yeah.
 
 00:38:44.856 --> 00:38:45.036
 Yeah.
 
 00:38:47.858 --> 00:38:48.798
 Well,
 
 00:38:48.878 --> 00:38:50.599
 I'm so grateful to connect with you
 
 00:38:51.380 --> 00:38:53.001
 and just really chat about all of this.
 
 00:38:53.320 --> 00:38:54.601
 And one of the things that
 
 00:38:54.702 --> 00:38:55.822
 always comes up for me,
 
 00:38:56.101 --> 00:38:57.603
 and even more so recently
 
 00:38:57.663 --> 00:38:59.143
 with social media,
 
 00:38:59.324 --> 00:39:01.445
 and there's a lot of people
 
 00:39:01.485 --> 00:39:02.485
 maybe recognizing that
 
 00:39:02.505 --> 00:39:03.106
 they're struggling with
 
 00:39:03.126 --> 00:39:04.646
 mental health issues, or they might say,
 
 00:39:05.086 --> 00:39:06.367
 I think I might have ADD,
 
 00:39:06.568 --> 00:39:08.068
 or I think I might have ADHD.
 
 00:39:08.829 --> 00:39:10.349
 So let's dive into that,
 
 00:39:10.530 --> 00:39:11.951
 because I know that you
 
 00:39:12.110 --> 00:39:13.291
 were diagnosed with ADD.
 
 00:39:13.891 --> 00:39:15.313
 I'm wondering, this whole...
 
 00:39:16.552 --> 00:39:16.992
 To me,
 
 00:39:17.514 --> 00:39:18.835
 I'd love to hear your perspective on this,
 
 00:39:18.914 --> 00:39:20.596
 but those type of labels
 
 00:39:20.635 --> 00:39:21.655
 are for insurance companies
 
 00:39:22.356 --> 00:39:24.398
 for creating billing codes.
 
 00:39:25.278 --> 00:39:27.760
 And we are buying into these symptoms,
 
 00:39:27.780 --> 00:39:29.101
 this collection of symptoms.
 
 00:39:29.621 --> 00:39:31.282
 How much of those symptoms...
 
 00:39:32.043 --> 00:39:33.585
 are created from our diet
 
 00:39:33.704 --> 00:39:35.367
 are created from our trauma
 
 00:39:35.507 --> 00:39:36.409
 as a collective maybe
 
 00:39:36.489 --> 00:39:37.409
 through our own individual
 
 00:39:37.429 --> 00:39:39.072
 journey or coven because I
 
 00:39:39.112 --> 00:39:40.293
 have so many people I've
 
 00:39:40.474 --> 00:39:41.434
 talked to and worked with
 
 00:39:41.494 --> 00:39:43.097
 myself with had oh I have
 
 00:39:43.157 --> 00:39:44.980
 adhd symptoms but down
 
 00:39:45.039 --> 00:39:45.920
 regulation the nervous
 
 00:39:45.960 --> 00:39:47.023
 system cleaning up the diet
 
 00:39:47.043 --> 00:39:48.704
 there is no more that's not there
 
 00:39:48.945 --> 00:39:50.065
 it's not there and people
 
 00:39:50.146 --> 00:39:51.405
 are so I think people are
 
 00:39:51.425 --> 00:39:52.186
 getting excited though
 
 00:39:52.206 --> 00:39:53.126
 because they're like I just
 
 00:39:53.146 --> 00:39:54.088
 discovered what's quote
 
 00:39:54.108 --> 00:39:55.228
 unquote wrong with me I
 
 00:39:55.248 --> 00:39:56.849
 have adhd and this is why I
 
 00:39:56.909 --> 00:39:58.050
 do these things like okay
 
 00:39:58.570 --> 00:39:59.489
 but then they're trapped
 
 00:39:59.510 --> 00:40:00.690
 into that I you know this
 
 00:40:00.731 --> 00:40:01.791
 sort of this is how it is
 
 00:40:01.811 --> 00:40:03.552
 now and I I don't want to
 
 00:40:03.793 --> 00:40:04.793
 like this may be very
 
 00:40:04.833 --> 00:40:06.153
 controversial my opinion on
 
 00:40:06.193 --> 00:40:07.454
 that because my opinion is
 
 00:40:07.494 --> 00:40:08.795
 it's not it's not it's not
 
 00:40:08.855 --> 00:40:10.135
 something it's something
 
 00:40:10.476 --> 00:40:12.356
 that if we were living in nature
 
 00:40:12.757 --> 00:40:13.496
 outside and we had to
 
 00:40:13.536 --> 00:40:14.257
 survive and we had to
 
 00:40:14.438 --> 00:40:16.318
 easily quickly scan our
 
 00:40:16.338 --> 00:40:17.739
 surroundings with our peripheral vision,
 
 00:40:17.778 --> 00:40:18.958
 hear any animals coming out of us.
 
 00:40:19.360 --> 00:40:19.539
 Yeah,
 
 00:40:19.559 --> 00:40:21.280
 we'd be looking all over the place
 
 00:40:21.400 --> 00:40:21.981
 and quickly,
 
 00:40:22.420 --> 00:40:24.280
 easily distracted because
 
 00:40:24.300 --> 00:40:25.422
 that's how we would survive.
 
 00:40:26.222 --> 00:40:28.063
 So why is that something
 
 00:40:28.083 --> 00:40:29.143
 that's wrong with us then
 
 00:40:29.483 --> 00:40:30.664
 if we are in that place in
 
 00:40:30.684 --> 00:40:31.744
 that state of our nervous system?
 
 00:40:32.083 --> 00:40:32.945
 So go ahead and take it away
 
 00:40:32.965 --> 00:40:34.085
 because I'm really very
 
 00:40:34.125 --> 00:40:35.126
 passionate about this, obviously.
 
 00:40:35.186 --> 00:40:35.945
 Yeah.
 
 00:40:36.445 --> 00:40:37.806
 Well, first and foremost,
 
 00:40:37.987 --> 00:40:42.490
 when we feel uneasy inside all the time,
 
 00:40:42.811 --> 00:40:43.791
 that's not normal.
 
 00:40:44.333 --> 00:40:45.753
 It is normal to have moments,
 
 00:40:45.793 --> 00:40:47.195
 like you said, where we're scanning,
 
 00:40:47.235 --> 00:40:48.996
 where we're anxious, where we're sad,
 
 00:40:49.036 --> 00:40:50.858
 where we're happy, where we're joyful.
 
 00:40:51.539 --> 00:40:53.059
 It's just not normal to feel
 
 00:40:53.300 --> 00:40:54.942
 anxious and fear all the time.
 
 00:40:55.141 --> 00:40:56.682
 And if that is happening or
 
 00:40:56.722 --> 00:40:58.184
 being distracted all the time,
 
 00:40:58.264 --> 00:40:59.885
 can't focus on anything, it's
 
 00:41:00.202 --> 00:41:01.262
 When these things are happening,
 
 00:41:01.342 --> 00:41:02.583
 this is your body's way of
 
 00:41:02.664 --> 00:41:06.246
 saying something is not
 
 00:41:06.628 --> 00:41:08.909
 going on and something's not right inside,
 
 00:41:09.070 --> 00:41:11.472
 meaning you're not helping me.
 
 00:41:12.152 --> 00:41:13.713
 You are abandoning me.
 
 00:41:14.614 --> 00:41:16.235
 You are making me struggle
 
 00:41:16.335 --> 00:41:17.237
 and I'm trying to
 
 00:41:17.297 --> 00:41:20.900
 compromise in ways so you can survive.
 
 00:41:22.181 --> 00:41:24.043
 And so, you know,
 
 00:41:24.182 --> 00:41:26.224
 with the whole ADHD thing,
 
 00:41:26.284 --> 00:41:27.945
 like for me personally,
 
 00:41:28.387 --> 00:41:30.371
 it was I wasn't great at
 
 00:41:30.510 --> 00:41:31.952
 sitting in a classroom for
 
 00:41:32.373 --> 00:41:35.018
 six to eight hours a day I
 
 00:41:35.057 --> 00:41:36.940
 needed to when I learned
 
 00:41:37.001 --> 00:41:38.141
 and taught myself how to
 
 00:41:38.222 --> 00:41:41.708
 study I literally would go to the loudest
 
 00:41:42.625 --> 00:41:44.184
 coffee shop when I was in
 
 00:41:44.224 --> 00:41:46.106
 college and I could sit
 
 00:41:46.146 --> 00:41:47.885
 there and I could focus and
 
 00:41:48.025 --> 00:41:50.427
 I could literally study for
 
 00:41:50.467 --> 00:41:51.467
 like an hour or two.
 
 00:41:52.128 --> 00:41:54.447
 And that was like the max for it.
 
 00:41:55.088 --> 00:41:55.929
 Even to this day,
 
 00:41:55.989 --> 00:41:59.068
 when I go to write or study something,
 
 00:41:59.108 --> 00:42:00.409
 I'm writing my second book right now.
 
 00:42:01.170 --> 00:42:02.809
 I go to a loud coffee shop
 
 00:42:03.510 --> 00:42:04.650
 or somewhere that's loud or
 
 00:42:04.710 --> 00:42:05.610
 Barnes and Noble,
 
 00:42:06.311 --> 00:42:09.931
 because that is how my brain works.
 
 00:42:10.152 --> 00:42:11.652
 There's nothing wrong with that.
 
 00:42:12.599 --> 00:42:13.922
 right?
 
 00:42:13.942 --> 00:42:15.043
 What doesn't work for me is
 
 00:42:15.083 --> 00:42:16.244
 to sit in a classroom where
 
 00:42:16.324 --> 00:42:17.867
 everybody is quiet and have
 
 00:42:17.887 --> 00:42:18.869
 to sit there and listen to
 
 00:42:18.889 --> 00:42:19.630
 someone talk about
 
 00:42:19.670 --> 00:42:21.192
 something I'm not very interested in.
 
 00:42:22.094 --> 00:42:23.054
 And that's the other thing
 
 00:42:23.235 --> 00:42:24.817
 is people will say, oh yeah,
 
 00:42:24.958 --> 00:42:26.579
 my kid has ADD or ADHD.
 
 00:42:28.402 --> 00:42:30.744
 well they might not care
 
 00:42:30.764 --> 00:42:31.884
 what the teacher's saying
 
 00:42:32.505 --> 00:42:33.565
 but you know what you take
 
 00:42:33.585 --> 00:42:35.347
 them outside and they get
 
 00:42:35.367 --> 00:42:37.568
 to like experience nature
 
 00:42:37.608 --> 00:42:38.367
 or you can teach them
 
 00:42:38.489 --> 00:42:39.969
 science in a way that is
 
 00:42:40.010 --> 00:42:41.570
 like touching feeling more
 
 00:42:41.630 --> 00:42:43.052
 tactile and their brain is
 
 00:42:43.072 --> 00:42:45.132
 like yes I am learning all
 
 00:42:45.193 --> 00:42:46.434
 of this if you're teaching
 
 00:42:46.474 --> 00:42:48.655
 a math and with a ball and
 
 00:42:48.675 --> 00:42:49.755
 a hula hoop and you're
 
 00:42:49.775 --> 00:42:50.797
 teaching them how to like
 
 00:42:51.297 --> 00:42:52.398
 you put this many balls in
 
 00:42:52.418 --> 00:42:53.677
 the hula hoop you take two
 
 00:42:53.717 --> 00:42:55.539
 away how many do you have I mean
 
 00:42:56.603 --> 00:42:58.065
 that is very different than
 
 00:42:58.146 --> 00:42:59.748
 something on paper that is
 
 00:42:59.788 --> 00:43:02.170
 very linear right and so
 
 00:43:02.650 --> 00:43:03.672
 the fact that we're even
 
 00:43:03.811 --> 00:43:06.554
 labeling people children at
 
 00:43:06.635 --> 00:43:10.239
 that is insane and now it's
 
 00:43:10.280 --> 00:43:11.701
 more socially acceptable
 
 00:43:12.262 --> 00:43:13.523
 like like I said when I was
 
 00:43:13.543 --> 00:43:15.324
 in high school I didn't
 
 00:43:15.364 --> 00:43:16.887
 know what depression was
 
 00:43:17.827 --> 00:43:20.509
 Like, I mean, I don't know,
 
 00:43:20.668 --> 00:43:22.990
 but I can get teenagers in
 
 00:43:23.030 --> 00:43:24.972
 here all the time that sit in the chair.
 
 00:43:25.391 --> 00:43:28.152
 They're like, yeah, I have ADD.
 
 00:43:28.273 --> 00:43:29.393
 I have depression.
 
 00:43:29.574 --> 00:43:31.514
 I also have anxiety all the time.
 
 00:43:31.875 --> 00:43:33.576
 I'm like, these are not things you have.
 
 00:43:34.036 --> 00:43:35.856
 These are things you're experiencing.
 
 00:43:36.617 --> 00:43:38.077
 So let's dive into why
 
 00:43:38.117 --> 00:43:39.398
 you're experiencing those.
 
 00:43:40.807 --> 00:43:42.688
 And so, yeah, I just,
 
 00:43:42.909 --> 00:43:44.929
 I'm with you on that.
 
 00:43:45.510 --> 00:43:46.489
 I think that all these
 
 00:43:46.530 --> 00:43:48.411
 labels are a disservice.
 
 00:43:49.572 --> 00:43:51.371
 They are definitely billing codes.
 
 00:43:53.172 --> 00:43:54.193
 If you've ever looked at
 
 00:43:54.213 --> 00:43:55.793
 your explanation of benefits,
 
 00:43:56.574 --> 00:43:58.315
 so anytime you,
 
 00:43:58.434 --> 00:43:59.576
 if you have a health insurance,
 
 00:44:00.536 --> 00:44:01.297
 most people don't know this
 
 00:44:01.317 --> 00:44:02.577
 because we also work with
 
 00:44:03.217 --> 00:44:04.597
 businesses and corporations
 
 00:44:04.898 --> 00:44:06.239
 on worksite wellness
 
 00:44:06.278 --> 00:44:07.559
 programs for their staff.
 
 00:44:08.619 --> 00:44:08.840
 And
 
 00:44:09.780 --> 00:44:11.282
 If you look at your billing codes,
 
 00:44:11.402 --> 00:44:13.603
 so one time I looked at
 
 00:44:13.623 --> 00:44:14.463
 some billing codes.
 
 00:44:14.623 --> 00:44:18.885
 I went to an OBGYN and there
 
 00:44:18.925 --> 00:44:19.746
 were all these billing
 
 00:44:19.766 --> 00:44:21.085
 codes for all these things.
 
 00:44:21.367 --> 00:44:23.307
 And one of them on there was
 
 00:44:23.407 --> 00:44:25.668
 a pregnancy test.
 
 00:44:25.708 --> 00:44:25.909
 Well,
 
 00:44:26.048 --> 00:44:27.869
 how am I getting a pregnancy test
 
 00:44:27.889 --> 00:44:29.550
 when I'm getting an IUD out?
 
 00:44:30.431 --> 00:44:30.891
 Tell me that.
 
 00:44:31.570 --> 00:44:32.831
 I didn't pee in a cup.
 
 00:44:33.472 --> 00:44:35.672
 I didn't get a pregnancy test, right?
 
 00:44:35.693 --> 00:44:36.333
 But guess what?
 
 00:44:37.079 --> 00:44:38.659
 Because I'm female and they
 
 00:44:38.679 --> 00:44:39.960
 could bill and get an extra
 
 00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:41.860
 forty bucks here, forty bucks there.
 
 00:44:42.721 --> 00:44:43.501
 That's what's happening.
 
 00:44:44.481 --> 00:44:48.943
 And so I call the doctor's office and say,
 
 00:44:48.963 --> 00:44:49.103
 hey,
 
 00:44:49.123 --> 00:44:51.344
 you billed for a pregnancy test and I
 
 00:44:51.364 --> 00:44:52.083
 did not get that.
 
 00:44:52.563 --> 00:44:53.304
 And they're like, oh, well,
 
 00:44:53.344 --> 00:44:53.925
 your insurance paid it,
 
 00:44:53.945 --> 00:44:54.465
 so you're going to have to
 
 00:44:54.485 --> 00:44:55.025
 call your insurance.
 
 00:44:55.065 --> 00:44:56.485
 I call my insurance company and say, hey,
 
 00:44:56.505 --> 00:44:56.965
 by the way,
 
 00:44:57.045 --> 00:44:58.085
 so they billed for this
 
 00:44:58.365 --> 00:44:59.327
 pregnancy test and I didn't
 
 00:44:59.347 --> 00:45:00.126
 have a pregnancy test.
 
 00:45:01.949 --> 00:45:02.568
 And they're like, oh,
 
 00:45:02.608 --> 00:45:04.130
 you need to go talk to your doctor.
 
 00:45:04.831 --> 00:45:07.893
 At that point, who has time for that?
 
 00:45:08.152 --> 00:45:10.594
 So there's also all these billing codes.
 
 00:45:10.675 --> 00:45:12.976
 And once that goes on your record,
 
 00:45:13.536 --> 00:45:15.157
 like I had a client who had,
 
 00:45:15.177 --> 00:45:17.119
 I'm using air quotes,
 
 00:45:17.259 --> 00:45:21.961
 had lupus and she went to go get,
 
 00:45:22.182 --> 00:45:23.003
 I think she said she was
 
 00:45:23.043 --> 00:45:23.623
 trying to get life
 
 00:45:23.684 --> 00:45:25.005
 insurance and she couldn't get it.
 
 00:45:25.885 --> 00:45:28.648
 She did work on herself and
 
 00:45:28.807 --> 00:45:30.208
 it was no longer detectable
 
 00:45:30.248 --> 00:45:31.791
 with the blood work that she was doing.
 
 00:45:31.831 --> 00:45:34.833
 And this is about nine months later or so.
 
 00:45:34.873 --> 00:45:35.695
 She did a lot of work,
 
 00:45:35.715 --> 00:45:36.394
 did a lot of work here,
 
 00:45:36.414 --> 00:45:37.496
 did a lot of stuff on her own,
 
 00:45:38.257 --> 00:45:40.179
 went back and they said, no,
 
 00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:41.280
 you can't get life
 
 00:45:41.340 --> 00:45:43.382
 insurance because of this,
 
 00:45:43.722 --> 00:45:45.103
 whatever code was put on
 
 00:45:45.143 --> 00:45:46.025
 her medical records.
 
 00:45:46.184 --> 00:45:46.925
 And that's going to follow
 
 00:45:46.945 --> 00:45:48.226
 her the rest of her life.
 
 00:45:49.815 --> 00:45:52.577
 So so we have to really wake
 
 00:45:52.677 --> 00:45:53.836
 up and pay attention.
 
 00:45:53.916 --> 00:45:55.858
 What are you allowing to be?
 
 00:45:56.219 --> 00:45:58.059
 Essentially, I call it cords,
 
 00:45:58.099 --> 00:45:59.541
 but corded to you or
 
 00:45:59.920 --> 00:46:02.342
 literally stamped on you.
 
 00:46:02.802 --> 00:46:04.123
 And you don't even have and
 
 00:46:04.163 --> 00:46:05.284
 most people don't even know
 
 00:46:05.324 --> 00:46:06.204
 this is happening.
 
 00:46:06.425 --> 00:46:07.125
 They don't even look at
 
 00:46:07.164 --> 00:46:08.485
 their explanation of benefits.
 
 00:46:08.865 --> 00:46:10.246
 They're like, oh, my insurance covered it.
 
 00:46:10.467 --> 00:46:11.807
 You're paying your insurance
 
 00:46:11.887 --> 00:46:13.148
 and maybe you don't pay out
 
 00:46:13.168 --> 00:46:13.949
 of pocket for your
 
 00:46:13.989 --> 00:46:16.112
 insurance or your employer is paying.
 
 00:46:16.132 --> 00:46:16.552
 But guess what?
 
 00:46:16.592 --> 00:46:17.672
 The reason you're not making
 
 00:46:17.733 --> 00:46:19.213
 more higher salary or a
 
 00:46:19.293 --> 00:46:21.376
 higher hourly rate is
 
 00:46:21.416 --> 00:46:23.117
 because that employer is factoring.
 
 00:46:23.137 --> 00:46:24.137
 They got to pay for this
 
 00:46:24.177 --> 00:46:24.918
 insurance for you.
 
 00:46:26.262 --> 00:46:29.764
 And so I just, a big fan, ask questions,
 
 00:46:30.184 --> 00:46:31.206
 pay attention,
 
 00:46:32.065 --> 00:46:33.626
 because we don't really
 
 00:46:33.666 --> 00:46:34.786
 know where this is going.
 
 00:46:34.806 --> 00:46:36.807
 And if you have a child and
 
 00:46:36.847 --> 00:46:38.088
 they're seven years old and
 
 00:46:38.108 --> 00:46:40.750
 they're being diagnosed with ADHD,
 
 00:46:41.110 --> 00:46:42.210
 they're being diagnosed
 
 00:46:42.231 --> 00:46:43.851
 with bipolar disorder.
 
 00:46:45.313 --> 00:46:47.494
 I mean, wow.
 
 00:46:50.034 --> 00:46:51.135
 What's going to happen when
 
 00:46:51.275 --> 00:46:52.195
 they go to get their own
 
 00:46:52.255 --> 00:46:53.717
 insurance and there's no
 
 00:46:53.757 --> 00:46:55.038
 longer open enrollment?
 
 00:46:57.237 --> 00:46:57.338
 Yeah.
 
 00:46:57.358 --> 00:46:59.420
 That is so good to know.
 
 00:46:59.760 --> 00:47:00.001
 Yeah.
 
 00:47:00.181 --> 00:47:03.646
 And in this country, to my knowledge,
 
 00:47:03.686 --> 00:47:04.987
 because I've tried to get this,
 
 00:47:05.248 --> 00:47:05.768
 you can't...
 
 00:47:07.005 --> 00:47:08.266
 My family pays about fifteen
 
 00:47:08.286 --> 00:47:09.467
 hundred dollars a month in
 
 00:47:09.507 --> 00:47:13.427
 like bare minimum health insurance.
 
 00:47:13.588 --> 00:47:15.367
 Like I was like, hey,
 
 00:47:15.507 --> 00:47:16.628
 I just want something
 
 00:47:16.929 --> 00:47:18.168
 catastrophic insurance.
 
 00:47:18.309 --> 00:47:19.449
 Can I get catastrophic
 
 00:47:19.489 --> 00:47:20.949
 insurance if there's an accident?
 
 00:47:21.050 --> 00:47:21.289
 Right.
 
 00:47:21.369 --> 00:47:22.969
 If there's my arm goes
 
 00:47:23.010 --> 00:47:24.150
 flying off in a car
 
 00:47:24.210 --> 00:47:25.411
 accident or I need a
 
 00:47:25.530 --> 00:47:27.231
 surgery or like something
 
 00:47:27.271 --> 00:47:28.291
 where the medical industry
 
 00:47:28.351 --> 00:47:31.692
 is so amazing at saving lives.
 
 00:47:32.353 --> 00:47:33.373
 I want that insurance.
 
 00:47:34.032 --> 00:47:34.632
 And guess what?
 
 00:47:34.733 --> 00:47:35.432
 In this country,
 
 00:47:35.574 --> 00:47:36.773
 you can't get that insurance.
 
 00:47:36.893 --> 00:47:38.634
 You have to have a baseline
 
 00:47:38.793 --> 00:47:41.175
 of health insurance, which is really,
 
 00:47:41.235 --> 00:47:42.795
 in my opinion, sick insurance.
 
 00:47:43.615 --> 00:47:44.976
 And I'm paying fifteen
 
 00:47:44.996 --> 00:47:47.597
 hundred dollars a month.
 
 00:47:47.637 --> 00:47:50.577
 Almost eighteen thousand dollars a year.
 
 00:47:50.597 --> 00:47:52.199
 Yeah.
 
 00:47:52.219 --> 00:47:54.159
 I mean, this is criminal to me.
 
 00:47:55.599 --> 00:47:56.699
 And I can be punished and
 
 00:47:56.760 --> 00:47:58.019
 fined in this country for
 
 00:47:58.079 --> 00:48:00.420
 not having that people.
 
 00:48:00.721 --> 00:48:03.061
 Why are we not asking more questions?
 
 00:48:04.360 --> 00:48:04.440
 Yeah.
 
 00:48:04.460 --> 00:48:04.559
 Yeah.
 
 00:48:04.579 --> 00:48:05.740
 So anyway, sorry, I went on a rant there,
 
 00:48:05.800 --> 00:48:07.601
 but thank you for listening.
 
 00:48:08.543 --> 00:48:09.824
 I mean, asking questions is where we,
 
 00:48:10.043 --> 00:48:11.344
 we take our power back in
 
 00:48:11.445 --> 00:48:12.925
 every single aspect of our lives.
 
 00:48:13.206 --> 00:48:13.525
 Yes.
 
 00:48:13.806 --> 00:48:14.867
 And when they're telling you
 
 00:48:14.967 --> 00:48:16.347
 not to ask those questions
 
 00:48:16.407 --> 00:48:17.628
 or they're blowing you off
 
 00:48:17.668 --> 00:48:19.150
 and they're saying, look this way,
 
 00:48:19.990 --> 00:48:21.010
 that's when we need to ask
 
 00:48:21.070 --> 00:48:22.331
 even more questions and be
 
 00:48:22.371 --> 00:48:23.552
 even stronger in the
 
 00:48:23.592 --> 00:48:24.893
 questions that we're asking.
 
 00:48:24.914 --> 00:48:25.835
 Yeah.
 
 00:48:25.875 --> 00:48:28.195
 Because it's just, yeah,
 
 00:48:28.277 --> 00:48:29.177
 there's a whole lot of
 
 00:48:29.217 --> 00:48:30.277
 stuff going on that most
 
 00:48:30.318 --> 00:48:31.119
 people aren't aware of.
 
 00:48:31.139 --> 00:48:32.278
 Yeah, absolutely.
 
 00:48:32.659 --> 00:48:33.099
 Absolutely.
 
 00:48:34.164 --> 00:48:36.806
 Well, so asking my final questions,
 
 00:48:36.826 --> 00:48:38.047
 since we're going on questions,
 
 00:48:38.106 --> 00:48:41.068
 questions is the best way to go.
 
 00:48:41.269 --> 00:48:42.530
 I would love to learn more
 
 00:48:42.590 --> 00:48:43.871
 about the audience and
 
 00:48:43.911 --> 00:48:44.632
 listeners want to learn a
 
 00:48:44.652 --> 00:48:46.333
 little bit more about any
 
 00:48:46.373 --> 00:48:47.494
 cool things you're up to.
 
 00:48:47.934 --> 00:48:49.315
 I mean, you mentioned your book,
 
 00:48:49.516 --> 00:48:50.976
 your programs, your offerings.
 
 00:48:51.617 --> 00:48:53.179
 We'd love to hear and share
 
 00:48:53.219 --> 00:48:53.878
 with what is it that you're
 
 00:48:53.918 --> 00:48:55.039
 up to that you're offering
 
 00:48:55.059 --> 00:48:55.900
 the world that we can learn
 
 00:48:55.940 --> 00:48:59.643
 more about from you.
 
 00:48:59.664 --> 00:49:00.804
 Gosh, I...
 
 00:49:03.378 --> 00:49:04.981
 I'm really just up to like
 
 00:49:05.521 --> 00:49:07.164
 learning more from others.
 
 00:49:07.344 --> 00:49:08.204
 So this is why I appreciate
 
 00:49:08.364 --> 00:49:09.806
 you bringing me on this podcast.
 
 00:49:09.887 --> 00:49:11.469
 And I love listening to
 
 00:49:11.489 --> 00:49:14.353
 podcasts and just hearing
 
 00:49:14.373 --> 00:49:15.574
 different voices, right?
 
 00:49:15.594 --> 00:49:17.217
 Like we don't have to agree
 
 00:49:17.257 --> 00:49:18.338
 with other people's
 
 00:49:19.079 --> 00:49:20.298
 thoughts and opinions,
 
 00:49:20.719 --> 00:49:21.639
 but I think it's important
 
 00:49:21.659 --> 00:49:23.119
 that we're exposed to them.
 
 00:49:24.041 --> 00:49:25.641
 So some goals and things I'm
 
 00:49:25.681 --> 00:49:28.822
 up to this year is my goal
 
 00:49:28.942 --> 00:49:32.063
 is to be on over thirty
 
 00:49:32.103 --> 00:49:34.483
 podcasts and to record one
 
 00:49:34.523 --> 00:49:36.885
 podcast a week on my podcast,
 
 00:49:36.905 --> 00:49:38.324
 the Happy Whole You podcast.
 
 00:49:39.365 --> 00:49:41.005
 And so that's something I'm
 
 00:49:41.085 --> 00:49:42.827
 up to because I love
 
 00:49:42.947 --> 00:49:44.286
 collaborating with other
 
 00:49:44.306 --> 00:49:46.768
 people and I love having conversations
 
 00:49:47.628 --> 00:49:49.548
 And I encourage other people to do that,
 
 00:49:49.588 --> 00:49:50.690
 like pick up the phone and
 
 00:49:50.730 --> 00:49:52.351
 call someone again.
 
 00:49:52.431 --> 00:49:54.231
 No more just texting, you know,
 
 00:49:54.331 --> 00:49:55.373
 ask someone to go for a
 
 00:49:55.432 --> 00:49:57.172
 walk just to have conversation.
 
 00:49:58.434 --> 00:49:59.255
 So that's something.
 
 00:49:59.394 --> 00:50:00.295
 And then the other thing
 
 00:50:00.335 --> 00:50:03.436
 that we're up to that we've
 
 00:50:03.496 --> 00:50:04.918
 really pushed out this year
 
 00:50:05.057 --> 00:50:06.358
 is our work site.
 
 00:50:06.619 --> 00:50:07.739
 We call them well-being and
 
 00:50:07.778 --> 00:50:09.480
 performance programs where
 
 00:50:09.500 --> 00:50:10.860
 we're working with companies to
 
 00:50:11.481 --> 00:50:14.362
 Um, we're doing webinars with companies,
 
 00:50:14.402 --> 00:50:15.864
 we're doing cooking classes,
 
 00:50:15.903 --> 00:50:18.085
 we're doing DYI skincare
 
 00:50:18.125 --> 00:50:18.985
 and just like all these
 
 00:50:19.045 --> 00:50:22.007
 holistic opportunities, paint nights, um,
 
 00:50:22.286 --> 00:50:22.867
 locally.
 
 00:50:23.128 --> 00:50:24.969
 And we're working with, uh,
 
 00:50:24.989 --> 00:50:27.750
 clients that are remote, um, you know,
 
 00:50:27.769 --> 00:50:29.371
 in other areas just to
 
 00:50:29.471 --> 00:50:32.193
 bring that wellbeing and
 
 00:50:32.333 --> 00:50:34.153
 opportunities of wellness, um,
 
 00:50:34.753 --> 00:50:37.516
 And to people that otherwise
 
 00:50:37.775 --> 00:50:39.177
 maybe are caught up in
 
 00:50:39.197 --> 00:50:40.577
 their day to day and they're not thinking,
 
 00:50:40.878 --> 00:50:41.039
 oh,
 
 00:50:41.079 --> 00:50:42.840
 taking a paint night or doing a paint
 
 00:50:42.860 --> 00:50:45.722
 class or, you know, oh, I can make my own,
 
 00:50:45.882 --> 00:50:48.623
 you know, laundry detergent or, you know,
 
 00:50:48.704 --> 00:50:50.244
 my own cleaning products
 
 00:50:50.284 --> 00:50:51.385
 that saves you time.
 
 00:50:51.445 --> 00:50:52.347
 It helps your, you know,
 
 00:50:52.387 --> 00:50:53.487
 it's better for your health.
 
 00:50:54.288 --> 00:50:56.170
 um, saves you a lot of money.
 
 00:50:56.871 --> 00:50:58.032
 Um, you know,
 
 00:50:58.072 --> 00:50:59.393
 and then we do these six week
 
 00:50:59.432 --> 00:51:01.675
 programs on mindset and
 
 00:51:01.735 --> 00:51:03.137
 raising your frequency.
 
 00:51:03.456 --> 00:51:04.597
 And so that's been really
 
 00:51:04.657 --> 00:51:05.938
 fun to go into companies,
 
 00:51:06.018 --> 00:51:07.820
 all sorts of companies, public sector,
 
 00:51:07.860 --> 00:51:11.324
 private sector, and work with these, um,
 
 00:51:11.385 --> 00:51:12.105
 individuals.
 
 00:51:12.204 --> 00:51:14.427
 It's, you know, I'm just a people person.
 
 00:51:14.487 --> 00:51:16.670
 So I love just developing,
 
 00:51:16.750 --> 00:51:18.952
 creating relationships and, and, uh,
 
 00:51:19.632 --> 00:51:19.911
 you know,
 
 00:51:19.972 --> 00:51:21.612
 helping people see some things
 
 00:51:21.632 --> 00:51:22.934
 that I've learned and if
 
 00:51:22.974 --> 00:51:24.675
 they love it and they pick up on it,
 
 00:51:24.715 --> 00:51:25.295
 that's cool.
 
 00:51:25.335 --> 00:51:26.275
 And then I love learning
 
 00:51:26.295 --> 00:51:28.556
 from other people as well.
 
 00:51:28.657 --> 00:51:29.056
 Awesome.
 
 00:51:29.217 --> 00:51:30.597
 And so we can learn more about,
 
 00:51:30.637 --> 00:51:31.378
 I want to put everything in
 
 00:51:31.398 --> 00:51:33.699
 the show notes for accessing your podcast,
 
 00:51:33.719 --> 00:51:34.440
 your website.
 
 00:51:34.920 --> 00:51:35.800
 Is there anywhere you want
 
 00:51:35.820 --> 00:51:36.740
 to specifically that you're
 
 00:51:36.760 --> 00:51:38.621
 really active on any platform,
 
 00:51:38.641 --> 00:51:39.382
 social media that you
 
 00:51:39.422 --> 00:51:41.063
 really love to interact with people on?
 
 00:51:42.199 --> 00:51:42.980
 Well, I did.
 
 00:51:43.099 --> 00:51:44.161
 We did just start
 
 00:51:44.260 --> 00:51:47.842
 doctor.anna.marie on Instagram.
 
 00:51:47.943 --> 00:51:48.923
 And so that's going to be
 
 00:51:49.003 --> 00:51:50.806
 more of like me personally
 
 00:51:51.947 --> 00:51:52.907
 sharing things.
 
 00:51:53.027 --> 00:51:55.469
 And then the happy whole you
 
 00:51:55.750 --> 00:51:57.451
 on Instagram is more of our
 
 00:51:57.550 --> 00:51:58.612
 brick and mortar Instagram.
 
 00:51:59.271 --> 00:52:01.494
 location in Bakersfield, California,
 
 00:52:02.275 --> 00:52:04.235
 and services that that we provide.
 
 00:52:04.315 --> 00:52:08.039
 So either one of those is, is good.
 
 00:52:08.079 --> 00:52:10.240
 And then happy whole you.com.
 
 00:52:10.601 --> 00:52:12.463
 You can, you know,
 
 00:52:12.483 --> 00:52:13.503
 see the nutraceuticals
 
 00:52:13.523 --> 00:52:15.626
 we've created and the
 
 00:52:15.726 --> 00:52:17.367
 courses that we have there
 
 00:52:17.427 --> 00:52:18.668
 just to help lift you up.
 
 00:52:18.748 --> 00:52:20.929
 And yeah, all of it's there.
 
 00:52:20.949 --> 00:52:22.271
 Awesome.
 
 00:52:22.311 --> 00:52:22.391
 Well,
 
 00:52:22.411 --> 00:52:24.413
 we have two final questions we ask
 
 00:52:24.472 --> 00:52:25.653
 everyone after when they're
 
 00:52:25.693 --> 00:52:26.954
 on our show for the first time.
 
 00:52:28.193 --> 00:52:29.594
 So the first question is,
 
 00:52:29.934 --> 00:52:31.556
 what is your favorite product,
 
 00:52:31.896 --> 00:52:32.956
 wellness topic,
 
 00:52:33.376 --> 00:52:36.099
 or self-care indulgence at this time?
 
 00:52:36.860 --> 00:52:38.079
 Oh, my God.
 
 00:52:38.119 --> 00:52:39.221
 There's so many.
 
 00:52:39.501 --> 00:52:39.661
 Yeah.
 
 00:52:39.721 --> 00:52:40.481
 And you can mention a couple
 
 00:52:40.501 --> 00:52:40.882
 if you need to.
 
 00:52:40.902 --> 00:52:41.902
 Okay.
 
 00:52:41.943 --> 00:52:44.623
 So I'm a big fan of castor oil.
 
 00:52:45.105 --> 00:52:47.306
 I literally rub it all over my face.
 
 00:52:47.847 --> 00:52:48.867
 If there's a problem,
 
 00:52:48.927 --> 00:52:51.728
 castor oil is involved everywhere.
 
 00:52:52.190 --> 00:52:52.269
 Um,
 
 00:52:52.409 --> 00:52:54.172
 I woke up one morning and I slept wrong
 
 00:52:54.411 --> 00:52:56.094
 on my, on my arm.
 
 00:52:56.333 --> 00:52:57.135
 I believe I slept wrong.
 
 00:52:57.175 --> 00:52:58.115
 My husband said it was cause
 
 00:52:58.135 --> 00:53:00.219
 we went bowling and he's like, no,
 
 00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:01.420
 you got sore from bowling,
 
 00:53:01.480 --> 00:53:02.641
 which I'm not going to believe that,
 
 00:53:02.702 --> 00:53:05.364
 but I like couldn't lift my arm up.
 
 00:53:06.045 --> 00:53:07.487
 And so what I did is I put
 
 00:53:07.547 --> 00:53:08.708
 tons of castor oil with
 
 00:53:08.728 --> 00:53:10.490
 cayenne pepper and wrapped it up and
 
 00:53:11.090 --> 00:53:12.713
 And literally it was like
 
 00:53:12.873 --> 00:53:14.775
 better within like twenty four hours.
 
 00:53:14.815 --> 00:53:16.097
 So that was cool because
 
 00:53:16.257 --> 00:53:17.097
 actually the first twenty
 
 00:53:17.117 --> 00:53:18.639
 four hours I was just like, oh,
 
 00:53:18.679 --> 00:53:19.740
 and I was dealing with the pain.
 
 00:53:19.760 --> 00:53:19.981
 I'm like,
 
 00:53:20.121 --> 00:53:21.603
 why am I not putting castor oil on this?
 
 00:53:21.623 --> 00:53:22.824
 Why am I not doing cayenne pepper?
 
 00:53:22.864 --> 00:53:24.226
 And once I did that, boom,
 
 00:53:24.246 --> 00:53:25.126
 it started to improve.
 
 00:53:26.728 --> 00:53:29.530
 So that, and then I have to say,
 
 00:53:29.550 --> 00:53:32.530
 I'm going to shamelessly
 
 00:53:32.992 --> 00:53:35.353
 plug two of my products.
 
 00:53:37.114 --> 00:53:37.253
 One,
 
 00:53:37.273 --> 00:53:38.574
 because I've worked so hard on
 
 00:53:38.635 --> 00:53:41.016
 creating these and formulating them.
 
 00:53:41.916 --> 00:53:45.478
 But, um, our whole you,
 
 00:53:45.518 --> 00:53:48.840
 it's a liquid multi-food based,
 
 00:53:49.021 --> 00:53:51.722
 like think of it as micro dosing, macro,
 
 00:53:51.742 --> 00:53:54.244
 micro minerals, amino acids, fatty acids.
 
 00:53:54.264 --> 00:53:54.664
 It's like,
 
 00:53:54.864 --> 00:53:56.385
 it's my blanket because I used
 
 00:53:56.425 --> 00:53:57.766
 to take like twenty some
 
 00:53:57.806 --> 00:53:59.487
 pills a day and literally I
 
 00:53:59.507 --> 00:54:01.007
 take an ounce shot of that every day.
 
 00:54:01.989 --> 00:54:03.990
 And that is like my jam.
 
 00:54:04.630 --> 00:54:08.094
 And I combine that with one
 
 00:54:08.114 --> 00:54:09.255
 of our flagship products,
 
 00:54:09.295 --> 00:54:10.815
 which is called Bright U.
 
 00:54:10.896 --> 00:54:12.157
 It's neuroprotective.
 
 00:54:12.177 --> 00:54:13.639
 It's anti-inflammatory,
 
 00:54:13.679 --> 00:54:15.019
 kind of anti-aging.
 
 00:54:16.061 --> 00:54:19.884
 And that is like my everyday go-to combo.
 
 00:54:20.423 --> 00:54:22.166
 And I love it because like I said,
 
 00:54:22.266 --> 00:54:23.327
 I used to take like
 
 00:54:23.646 --> 00:54:24.547
 I would have to like spread
 
 00:54:24.588 --> 00:54:26.070
 my pills out throughout the whole day.
 
 00:54:26.150 --> 00:54:27.192
 Cause I would take so many
 
 00:54:27.231 --> 00:54:29.054
 pills and I could not swallow them all.
 
 00:54:29.795 --> 00:54:30.016
 Um,
 
 00:54:30.115 --> 00:54:32.079
 and so now I take three pills and one
 
 00:54:32.159 --> 00:54:34.983
 out shot every day and I'm good to go.
 
 00:54:35.302 --> 00:54:37.686
 So, um, those are my things.
 
 00:54:37.766 --> 00:54:39.208
 And I started, uh,
 
 00:54:39.228 --> 00:54:41.231
 Pilates reformer Pilates, um,
 
 00:54:41.371 --> 00:54:43.932
 And that has been beautiful,
 
 00:54:44.414 --> 00:54:45.894
 non-impact on my body.
 
 00:54:46.074 --> 00:54:47.155
 I used to be a runner.
 
 00:54:47.277 --> 00:54:48.398
 I don't do that anymore.
 
 00:54:49.097 --> 00:54:53.181
 And my body is so happy with that.
 
 00:54:53.342 --> 00:54:53.983
 And I, it just,
 
 00:54:54.143 --> 00:54:56.125
 it feels so good and it's challenging.
 
 00:54:56.844 --> 00:54:59.288
 And so I, that feels good for me.
 
 00:55:00.195 --> 00:55:01.876
 That's awesome.
 
 00:55:01.896 --> 00:55:03.456
 I would love to know if with
 
 00:55:03.476 --> 00:55:04.257
 the castor oil,
 
 00:55:04.318 --> 00:55:05.557
 did you ever get one of the,
 
 00:55:05.677 --> 00:55:06.858
 the actual wraps that go
 
 00:55:06.878 --> 00:55:07.579
 with the castor oil?
 
 00:55:07.599 --> 00:55:09.599
 I just got one specifically for the neck.
 
 00:55:10.119 --> 00:55:10.400
 Oh yeah.
 
 00:55:10.420 --> 00:55:11.501
 It's actually like it's
 
 00:55:11.621 --> 00:55:13.802
 washable and it actually has Velcro.
 
 00:55:13.822 --> 00:55:15.021
 You can step it on and then
 
 00:55:15.141 --> 00:55:16.543
 pop it on and sleep with it.
 
 00:55:16.862 --> 00:55:18.483
 Got one for my, for my abdomen area.
 
 00:55:18.523 --> 00:55:19.824
 I was so excited when I found these,
 
 00:55:19.844 --> 00:55:20.804
 I didn't know they existed.
 
 00:55:21.364 --> 00:55:21.764
 Oh yeah.
 
 00:55:21.824 --> 00:55:22.105
 Yeah.
 
 00:55:22.224 --> 00:55:22.925
 No, they're great.
 
 00:55:23.146 --> 00:55:23.226
 Um,
 
 00:55:24.065 --> 00:55:26.246
 I don't I haven't bought
 
 00:55:26.286 --> 00:55:27.367
 like one of those wraps,
 
 00:55:27.427 --> 00:55:29.847
 but I'm notorious for
 
 00:55:29.927 --> 00:55:31.568
 rubbing castor oil all over
 
 00:55:31.608 --> 00:55:33.469
 my body and having just my
 
 00:55:33.548 --> 00:55:34.668
 underwear and bra on and
 
 00:55:34.708 --> 00:55:36.389
 like doing a few things,
 
 00:55:36.449 --> 00:55:37.670
 doing laundry and letting
 
 00:55:37.710 --> 00:55:38.909
 it kind of absorb.
 
 00:55:39.050 --> 00:55:40.010
 And then I put on like an
 
 00:55:40.130 --> 00:55:41.431
 old nightshirt and go to bed.
 
 00:55:42.710 --> 00:55:44.811
 Um, but it, it can get sticky for people,
 
 00:55:44.851 --> 00:55:46.431
 but I just do like a thin layer.
 
 00:55:46.711 --> 00:55:48.672
 And so, um, yeah.
 
 00:55:48.733 --> 00:55:51.094
 And then if I am going to do like a wrap,
 
 00:55:51.833 --> 00:55:52.054
 um,
 
 00:55:52.253 --> 00:55:54.034
 I'll do like the liver wrap and then
 
 00:55:54.074 --> 00:55:55.355
 I'll sometimes do like dry
 
 00:55:55.414 --> 00:55:56.934
 herbs on that as well.
 
 00:55:57.574 --> 00:55:58.576
 Um, so I really,
 
 00:55:58.876 --> 00:56:01.115
 I like that for a little detox.
 
 00:56:01.516 --> 00:56:02.757
 Um, that always feels good.
 
 00:56:04.090 --> 00:56:04.250
 Awesome.
 
 00:56:04.289 --> 00:56:04.570
 Well,
 
 00:56:04.610 --> 00:56:05.869
 the last question actually is related
 
 00:56:05.891 --> 00:56:06.471
 to detox.
 
 00:56:06.630 --> 00:56:08.550
 So the last question is,
 
 00:56:08.811 --> 00:56:10.530
 if you could detox one
 
 00:56:10.570 --> 00:56:13.791
 thing in your life or the world right now,
 
 00:56:13.871 --> 00:56:19.733
 what would it be?
 
 00:56:19.833 --> 00:56:25.014
 I think I would detox sadness.
 
 00:56:25.054 --> 00:56:26.215
 Like I get emotional.
 
 00:56:26.275 --> 00:56:26.994
 Like I...
 
 00:56:27.983 --> 00:56:30.346
 never want someone to feel
 
 00:56:31.306 --> 00:56:33.327
 that depressed state where
 
 00:56:33.427 --> 00:56:34.989
 every day feels hard,
 
 00:56:35.568 --> 00:56:37.110
 where every day feels like,
 
 00:56:38.030 --> 00:56:39.190
 I don't know if I can do it
 
 00:56:39.271 --> 00:56:42.373
 because like you so can.
 
 00:56:45.474 --> 00:56:48.376
 And there, there is hope and you can,
 
 00:56:48.556 --> 00:56:50.878
 I just, from my heart,
 
 00:56:51.159 --> 00:56:54.380
 like you are here on purpose and,
 
 00:56:55.342 --> 00:56:58.505
 And, like, you have so much,
 
 00:56:59.045 --> 00:57:00.306
 so much that you're
 
 00:57:00.346 --> 00:57:01.666
 supposed to be contributing.
 
 00:57:02.768 --> 00:57:04.250
 But it does start with you
 
 00:57:04.289 --> 00:57:05.371
 loving yourself and
 
 00:57:05.471 --> 00:57:06.891
 embracing the uniqueness
 
 00:57:06.911 --> 00:57:09.454
 that you are and living unapologetically.
 
 00:57:10.195 --> 00:57:11.576
 as your true authentic self.
 
 00:57:11.697 --> 00:57:13.577
 And I just would love if
 
 00:57:13.657 --> 00:57:14.898
 people could find that
 
 00:57:14.958 --> 00:57:17.960
 within them and show up in
 
 00:57:18.161 --> 00:57:20.222
 the world with who they really are.
 
 00:57:20.682 --> 00:57:22.164
 And to me,
 
 00:57:22.585 --> 00:57:24.565
 so I would detox sadness and
 
 00:57:24.626 --> 00:57:27.829
 fill the body up with all the goodness.
 
 00:57:29.530 --> 00:57:30.150
 Awesome.
 
 00:57:30.251 --> 00:57:31.092
 I love that one.
 
 00:57:31.231 --> 00:57:32.313
 Thank you so much.
 
 00:57:32.952 --> 00:57:33.693
 Thank you.
 
 00:57:33.813 --> 00:57:34.954
 I appreciate you coming on.
 
 00:57:35.434 --> 00:57:36.695

 And if you have any questions,
 
 00:57:44.561 --> 00:57:46.282
 something specifically we did not address,
 
 00:57:46.342 --> 00:57:47.003

 00:57:47.103 --> 00:57:47.722
 I want to have her come
 
 00:57:47.742 --> 00:57:50.045
 back on again and talk about this,
 
 00:57:50.144 --> 00:57:51.144
 we can absolutely do that.
 
 00:57:51.184 --> 00:57:52.146
 Maybe help her hit her goal
 
 00:57:52.206 --> 00:57:53.547

 00:57:53.586 --> 00:57:54.847
 year she wants to do for
 
 00:57:54.887 --> 00:57:56.648
 other podcast episodes, we can do that.
 
 00:57:57.248 --> 00:57:57.630
 But again,
 
 00:57:57.650 --> 00:57:59.231
 thank you so much for coming on.
 
 00:57:59.851 --> 00:58:01.211
 Yes, thank you.
