All right,

Welcome.

Thank you so much for being here for today's live session on manifesting in 2022.

So I'm going to head over to the comments and see what popped up.

I asked you guys why you decided to join here if you have any questions.

Good morning.

Good morning,

Katrina and Eric and Astrid.

I have a wish.

Well,

What is your wish Astrid?

I want to hear Kimmy.

Good morning.

It is seven o'clock here.

Hi,

Kathleen.

Welcome back.

Good to see you again.

Katrina,

I love it.

Hi,

Debbie.

So thank you all so much for being here and for joining.

It is very cold here in Pennsylvania,

But I'm trying to stay warm and do the best that I can.

But today I want to talk about manifestation.

It's one of my favorite topics to talk about and discuss.

So I'm seeing so many familiar names from last week.

I'm so excited.

So manifestation is a really beautiful process.

A lot of times people go in over their heads.

We overthink it.

And I say we because myself is included in that conversation.

And to realize that manifestation is fine.

It's it's life manifestation is like we are manifesting every moment of every day.

So manifest as manifestation isn't just when we get the things that we're desiring.

It's everything that we receive everything that we get in our lives comes because we manifested it.

And we manifest things by lining up with them.

So it all depends on where our vibration is,

And how we are aligned.

So manifestation comes from our vibration and alignment.

So I'm going to step up to the board.

Now I'm going to start mailing and step up to the board and start talking.

And really kind of get into the meat of today.

So manifestation comes from our vibrations and our alignment.

And we can know where we're vibrating and where we're aligned.

Because we could pay attention to our emotions.

Because they are our guidance.

Are we feeling good?

We're in a vibration where we're going to attract more good into our lives.

Are we feeling sad and angry and mad?

Well,

Like we were going to manifest things that are not so great in our lives.

Not to say we shouldn't feel those emotions,

But our emotions are our guidance.

They are our guidance system,

They tell us where we are and how we're aligned.

So our emotions are our guidance.

We don't ever want to push down and pretend like we don't feel the negative things because we're so afraid to embrace or to have I got to need to turn one more light on it feels really dark.

I know it is on.

Why is it so dark in here today?

Sorry,

Really dark in here today.

I'm gonna try to turn on another light.

Um,

So we can and this is where I got chipped up a lot when I was really focusing on on manifesting and I was like,

Oh,

I'm thinking about thought,

Oh,

I can't think that thought any works.

I'm going to manifest bad things.

And we can't think like that.

Like I said,

In the very,

Very beginning that our contrast helps us helps guide us.

So we can't look at our emotions as good or bad.

Our emotions are simply our guidance system.

And we can say,

Well,

Where am I vibrating right now?

And really paying attention to them.

So I'm going to hop into the comments and just see kind of what's going on here.

So Kristelle says to have some structures I can practice regularly.

Love the vibe and staying to listen.

Oh,

Beautiful.

Well,

We're happy to see where this guides you to learn more about this in 2022.

I'm manifesting an internal journey exploring and influencing the galaxy of cells in my bodies.

Wow,

That is powerful.

Eric,

That's amazing.

I love it so so much.

So our emotions are our guidance system.

And as we go through this conversation today,

Please say questions,

Give comments.

Let me know what's what's resonating,

What's not or if you want to dive deeper into a certain subject.

So I know Kristelle had asked about structure and practice.

Yeah,

That is pretty fabulous,

Isn't it?

So our vibrations and our alignment.

So if we're looking for structure,

And we're looking for something to say,

What do I need to do?

One of the things that was really beneficial for me and has been really beneficial and continues to be so is listening to my emotions,

Not ignoring them,

But really,

Really listening.

Because what we tend to do,

And whether you you know about manifestation manifestation or not,

A lot of us a lot of human beings,

We feel the things we don't like,

We feel the negative emotions,

We feel sad,

We feel angry,

We feel mad.

And we're like,

I don't want to feel that that's not good.

Let me just ignore it.

And the worst thing you can do is ignore your emotions.

You have to listen to them.

And you have to go,

I'm not feeling so great.

And then you can either say what's going on,

You can feel it,

You can feel it in your body.

So if we're really going to listen to our emotions,

Where's my eraser?

If we're going to listen to our emotions,

And we want to listen,

How do we listen?

And what do we do once we start listening?

So I've been reading so much,

Just personal development,

And books and podcasts,

And all sorts of things.

And what the common theme I keep seeing is,

It's not about ignoring how you feel,

It's about listening to how you feel.

And there are so many different ways to do this.

So when you're listening to your emotions,

Right,

So if we're listening,

And we're paying attention,

And we're saying,

You want to listen to your emotions,

And you're going to listen to your emotions,

And what are they saying to you?

They're simply telling you how you feel,

And how you feel.

You cannot change.

And if you can accept,

Accept,

Recognize,

And appreciate.

So if you can listen to your emotions,

And I'm talking mostly about the ones that are not so great that we try to avoid,

If you can accept,

Recognize,

And appreciate all those things that you're feeling for what they're doing for you,

Then you can move through them.

And you don't let go of your emotions,

But it's in your recognition.

It's in your acceptance.

It's in your appreciation.

But those emotions will naturally just fall away.

And you'll go,

But it's okay.

It's okay.

One thing I learned,

It's okay,

Everything's okay.

You are exactly where you are meant to be.

And you are having an emotional reaction to something in your life.

It's okay.

It's okay to feel that way.

And I was going to come up to the comments,

But I want to share this really quick before I get distracted.

A couple years ago.

So pretty much my story really,

It starts a long time ago,

But 2018 was a really big year for me.

I made a lot of big changes.

It's really when I went internal and I was like,

I can no longer live the way that I'm living.

I need to do something different.

And it was really the thing that kind of pushed me to really change my life and live my life differently.

And so I started doing that,

But what was really hard is I was starting to accept all my emotions and I was like,

I'm angry,

I'm mad.

And I was journaling and I was getting,

I was like word vomiting,

All of the stuff that it was like buried inside of me for so long.

And it was really hard,

But what I've realized is it's okay to feel my emotions.

So I had a supervisor back in 2018 when I was going through all of this and really dealing with a lot and,

And seeing doctors and crying.

And it was like an emotional,

Absolute emotional roller coaster.

And I was saying to,

To my supervisor,

I was like,

I'm really overwhelmed.

I kept kind of kept saying it.

I couldn't quite verbalize exactly what was going on,

But I could simply verbalize how I was feeling,

But I couldn't say why I couldn't say what was happening.

I'm like,

I'm just overwhelmed and I'm,

I'm,

I'm scared and I'm worried.

And I can't,

I can't do this anymore.

And in my review,

The words actually said overwhelm your overwhelm is that her overwhelm is an exaggeration.

So she was telling me how I was feeling.

And I'll never forget reading that going,

Well,

That doesn't feel right.

And the more I sat with it,

You know,

A couple of weeks later,

I was like,

Wait a minute,

Nobody can tell me how I feel.

And that's the same thing for you.

So if you are feeling overwhelmed,

Frustrated,

Angry,

It's okay.

Take that,

Accept it,

Recognize it and appreciate it and say,

What is this emotion telling me?

A,

This emotion is telling me I am out of alignment.

Okay,

So I'm out of alignment.

That's okay,

I'm out of alignment.

I'm not in alignment with my inner being,

But my inner being still loves me and is still guiding me.

What can I do to get back into alignment?

What can I do to get back into alignment,

I can slow down,

I can meditate,

I can take a quick nap,

I can go for a walk,

I can do all of these things.

But I want to start here and saying,

It's your emotions that are your are guiding you.

And no matter how you're feeling,

It is okay,

No matter what emotions you're feeling right now,

You are okay,

And you are exactly where you need to be.

That's it.

All right,

Now I'm going to come up to the comments and see what conversation.

I'm trying to integrate my shadow side this year instead of denying it and fighting it.

Kimmy,

That is beautiful.

And that is what we're talking about here is talking about there's,

We've got light and we've got dark.

And Abraham Hicks will say,

There is no dark switch,

Like you're not going to go into a room and flip the dark switch on,

You're going to flip the light on.

So when you have those shadows,

And you have that darkness,

Turn the light on.

You don't turn the darkness on the darkness is there,

Simply turn the light on and shine a light on it.

And when you are accepting,

Recognizing and appreciating all of your emotions,

What you're doing is you're shining a light on it.

And it's no longer darkness.

So that anger,

That frustration,

Those shadows,

No longer become darkness,

But they become light.

So let them become light.

And when you see them in the light,

You see them so much more clearly.

And you can move forward so much more easily.

And they're both okay.

Oh,

Beautiful,

Kimmy.

I'm glad that's resonating with you.

So yeah,

So listen to your emotions.

So we want to manifest these things.

And as we're talking about this live,

It is January of 2022.

It is the beginning of a new year,

But this stuff is applicable no matter what time of year it is,

No matter what day it is,

No matter what year or month or whatever,

It doesn't matter.

This stuff applies all of the time because you are constantly manifested your life.

What your current life right now is a manifestation of previous thoughts and beliefs.

Right?

Manifestation.

I want to write this down.

What buddy?

I'm in the office.

What kiddo?

Yes,

I'm actually what time is it?

Can you set a timer and then once the timer is done,

Get dressed for basketball,

Please.

Okay,

30 minutes.

Okay,

See,

Typically we get an interruption.

So manifestation is all your previous thoughts and beliefs.

Previous thoughts and beliefs.

So if you would like to change the future,

For your manifestation,

If you want to manifest a manifest a new future,

You simply need to change your thoughts and beliefs.

So by understanding and shining a light on the thoughts and beliefs that got you to where you are right now,

You can look at and say those are the thoughts and beliefs that got me here.

Those are beautiful.

Those are amazing.

They brought me here,

They gave me so much clarity.

And now I'm going to take those thoughts and beliefs because I've manifested something that I want more I want something different I've learned.

And now I'm simply going simply I say simply,

But it is not the easiest thing to do.

I'm simply going to change my thoughts and beliefs.

I'm going to choose to think and believe in a different way.

And when I think and believe and believe now I need to believe today differently to change my future.

So your thoughts and beliefs today will lead to your future.

Oh,

That's a that's hard to write there.

That was really hard to write on that angle.

They lead to your future.

Katrina says I love that so much.

The darkness is already there and we are shining a light on it and embracing it.

Yes.

So mid talk.

Yes,

It happens all the time.

Yes.

Katrina,

You're right.

It's usually mid mom talks.

Time for a timer timer.

Yes.

Simple to do change thoughts and beliefs,

But not easy.

Yes.

That's the word that is the work of life.

Katrina.

That's it.

That's it.

That's exactly how I view it.

And I see it.

This is life.

We can't look back with regret.

And a lot of times we do because we're like,

Well,

I think I made this bad decision and I didn't do this right.

Or this was wrong and this didn't work out.

And maybe I made the wrong choice.

No,

You never make a wrong choice.

There are no wrong decisions.

Was the one of the greatest pieces of advice I ever got was there's no wrong decision in life.

You're either going to get if you're listening to your guidance system or if you're not listening to your guidance system,

You're going to get something.

You're going to get what you desire.

You're going to learn a little bit more so that you can grow.

Like we're always growing and changing.

So if we can shine a light on the thoughts and beliefs that got us to where we are today and we can shine a light on them and we can embrace them and recognize them and appreciate them.

And then we can go,

Okay,

I'm going to shift that thought for the future.

Then you've got a new future ahead of you.

You always have a new future ahead of you and all just based on your thoughts and beliefs.

What are you going to choose to do now?

Maybe this is the question you're thinking.

This is the question that just popped up into my head.

So if I'm off track,

Just let me know.

Just keep being in the comments.

I will keep checking.

But I feel like the next question is,

Okay,

I don't know.

Is it,

Is the next question,

How do I know what I'm thinking and believing?

Or how do I actually,

I know what I'm thinking and believing.

I know what my,

My beliefs are that have gotten me here and I want to change them.

So how do I change them?

So what's,

What's the bigger question?

You guys let me know,

Or if there's something else.

So we,

I,

You know,

I'm feeling guided to talk about thoughts and beliefs and where we go here.

Diane says,

Seeing that I actively put myself into current situation and that I can change it.

Yes,

You can change it.

And it's okay that you put yourself in a situation because essentially what happened was you put yourself in a situation and you can go,

Oh,

I did X,

Y,

And Z,

And that got me here,

But that's not really where I want to be.

So let me now do a,

B and C and maybe I'll get here.

You don't know.

We don't know.

We don't know the how we don't know the when,

But we can in our hearts,

Listen to the why,

And that's listening to our inner being.

So Katrina says I'm living in so much regret for how I raised my kids.

Oh,

Trina,

It is very unpleasant.

I felt very unpleasant and disconnected.

And now that I want to really plug in their teenagers and don't want to connect,

I'm really trying to move through the regret,

But I'm realizing I just keep living there.

Ah,

Okay.

So let's,

Let's guide that conversation around the I've done something.

It wasn't how I wanted to live.

Now,

How do I move forward?

Because so Katrina,

If you continue to live in regret,

So if we continue to live in that regret,

Where are you going to stay?

So if we continue thinking the same thoughts and we're in regret,

And we keep thinking that over and over and over,

We're,

We're going to continue to do it.

So in order to change it,

It's saying,

You know what?

I wasn't perfect.

I wasn't perfect.

I made mistakes.

And guess what?

Every single person in this room right now,

No matter where they are or what they're doing has made mistakes in their life.

And you do,

You feel guilty.

You're like,

I probably didn't handle it correctly.

Especially when we're,

When we're younger and we're,

We're teenagers and we're in our twenties or we're in our thirties.

We're like,

But that probably wasn't the best choice.

But what I want you to realize is no matter what you did your best with the knowledge you had.

So you did the best you could with the knowledge,

With the knowledge you had.

And guess what?

As you got older and as you got more experiences and you learned more things,

You are continuing to do the best you are the best you can with the knowledge you have.

So forgiving yourself and saying,

You know what?

I did the best I could.

I didn't know that all then.

Could I go back and change things up?

No,

I can't go back and change things,

But in my heart,

Do I kind of wish I did know what I know now then?

Absolutely.

But we can't do that.

And if we continue to live in the past,

We're going to continue repeating that cycle.

So understanding that number one,

Um,

You know,

I go back all the time.

So my kids are six and nine.

No,

They're not teenagers,

But when they were infants and even when I was pregnant or early on in my marriage,

I could like,

I was not a nice person.

I was dealing with a lot of stuff.

I was not great as a parent when they were infants.

Like I was just very frustrated and scared,

But I did the best I could with the knowledge that I had at that time in my life.

All I can do now is change from here on forward and continue doing that.

But what I also want to say is you need to do the changes for you,

No matter how anybody else around you reacts or responds to what you're doing,

Whether it's your children or your spouse or your friends or your family or your coworkers,

Whatever it is,

You have to do the changes for you.

But if you're doing something because you expect somebody else to do something in return,

You,

You have to learn to let that go.

So with my husband and I,

I talked about this a lot.

He went through a really big bout of depression and it was not fun.

It was not enjoyable.

I thought our marriage is going to fall apart.

And I was like,

I can't live like this anymore.

And what I did is I started working on me for me,

Not because I had spent years trying to help him feel better.

What can I do to help you?

Because if I help him feel better and he's happier than I'll be happier,

But I was allowing somebody outside of me to dictate how I was feeling.

And I started working on me and I started saying,

Well,

This marriage doesn't work.

Then it,

Then it,

I got to let that go.

I can't live my life so unhappy that I'm not taking care of myself.

So what I did was I took care of myself.

I didn't know how that was going to affect my kids or my husband or our marriage or our family.

I didn't know how that was going to affect everything,

But I just did the work on myself.

I did the best that I could.

And what happened was things changed.

He grew,

He got better and he got stronger.

I don't know if that happens for everybody,

But we can't do the changes with the expectation that things outside of us are going to change things outside of us will change,

But they might not go the way that we intend.

So we have to do the changes and we have to do the work for ourselves.

And then the external things will kind of will come along and they will come along for the ride.

But if we're waiting for those things to change,

If we're like,

Well,

I know I'm doing a good job when my kids respond X,

Y,

And Z way to me,

And they're no longer mad at me.

Well,

Guess what?

They might not be very happy with you.

And that's okay too.

You have to let them also experience their emotions and their feelings.

And that's a really hard place to be saying,

Well,

Maybe they are mad.

Maybe they are angry,

But I'm just going to continue working on me and being the best me that I can be without trying to change them.

My job is not to change anybody else.

My job is to continue working on me and everything else will fall into place.

Yeah.

So I'm going to come back into it.

Where's my mouse?

Okay.

Scroll up in the comments.

Yeah.

Look at that.

I love all of the comments for Katrina is beautiful.

Yeah.

I love it.

See,

This is part of the community that I love so much.

So can you says I spent a lot of time thinking the universe is on my side and that I know that blocks the manifestation.

I'm changing that this year.

The universe is on your side.

We block ourselves.

So we look inside of ourselves and we do something and we're like,

Ooh,

That didn't feel so good.

Guess what?

Inside your inner being in the universe is still supporting you no matter what you do or say.

And,

And that says they are changing as little humans.

Yes,

They are changing and they're going.

And what they're going to do is they're going to see you doing the work on yourself.

And what you're teaching them is they can do the work for themselves too,

Whether they do it right now,

Or they do it 10 years from now or 20 years from now,

All you can do is the best version of you.

And as a mom,

It's really hard,

So much easier to say than to do.

I used to blame my parents until I realized I chose all of this before I got here.

Yes.

I'm not perfect.

Yep.

Our children chose us.

Yep.

We're on the journey together.

And I think that also goes back to,

Um,

I did a lot of this when I was doing this work,

You know,

Kind of on myself and with my husband,

It helped my relationship with my parents as well.

Cause I was like,

You know what?

I can forgive my parents for the things that weren't so perfect in my childhood.

Cause I can be like,

You know what they were doing the best that they could with the knowledge that they had.

And they're continuing to do the best they can with the knowledge that they have.

They're not on the journey that I'm on.

I'm not on their journey.

I don't know what their life experiences were,

But I know that they're,

They're doing the best that they can with the knowledge they have.

And I can't blame them.

And I can't expect them to change,

To make me happy.

I can make me happy and I can allow them to be who they are.

That's a really beautiful space to be in when you're so confident in yourself and you're like,

This is who I am,

But I'm also so confident that I'm just going to allow you to be you.

I don't need you to be anybody else in order to make me happy,

But you being who you are is so beautiful.

And I know that you're going to continue to grow,

But I can't change your journey only you can.

And that's,

That comes a lot out when I do my coaching as well.

It's like,

It's not my job as a coach or a teacher to tell you what to do.

It's my job to show you what's possible.

Only you can make the changes so I can get up here and teach all that I want.

I can't change anything or do anything for any of you.

It is up to you,

All of you to go and leave here and do the work and do all of these things and do what feels good to you.

And you know,

At the same token of saying this feels good,

But this doesn't.

So do what feels good and don't do what feels good.

Coaching for me really comes from just a perspective shift.

You get an outside perspective to look at something and then you take that perspective and go and take the actions that feel good to you.

That's the same thing.

When I come up here and teach,

I give you my perspective,

You guys give me information.

I take a perspective.

I kind of see what downloads come to me,

What feels good.

I share it and then you go and do with it.

Whatever feels good to you as long as you're following your inner being and your inner desires.

Yeah.

Yes.

So Kathleen,

You felt a very similar way of Katrina.

I can't change what happened so I can only be present.

She's a 15 year old and I believe teens one and still need that connection.

If they're just too cool to show it,

That's my fear.

My kids are nine and six.

And then my 15 hook comes and word vomits on me and that doesn't pop up for a month.

That's a teenager and is here.

I'm here to learn so I can teach others.

Yes.

And we don't teach by our words.

So yes,

I'm up here teaching by my words and I'm sharing with you,

But when we're really with family and friends and people that are with us,

They learn from our actions and they're watching and they're paying attention.

It's not what I say to my children.

It's what they see me doing.

It's when they see me up here teaching.

It's when they see me stressed out and going to meditate instead of throwing a fit and getting angry.

I still do that.

I clean when I'm angry.

I don't know about anybody else.

I feel like it makes me feel like I'm in control,

But I have working to I'm just really working a lot on feeling my emotions and I point to my gut cause that's where I feel a lot of my emotions.

So yeah,

We are all doing our best.

It's like living with 100 different people.

Katrina is talking about teenagers.

Nikki,

How did your work change and change have an impact on your husband?

What steps did he start taking?

I'm right where you are right now.

Beautiful.

Oh,

Kimmy.

Thank you.

They are watching just like we did.

Yes.

Yes.

We have to give ourselves a timeout.

So da asked how my work had an impact on my husband.

So I will tell you,

And I've told this story before.

So what I did,

So I just started working on myself.

I actually stopped also asking him how he was feeling.

How are you feeling?

Are you okay today?

Is today a good day?

I just stopped asking.

And I would kind of ignore him.

I don't know if it was the most best solution,

But I was doing the best I could with the knowledge that I had at the time.

So what happened was I just started doing the work and I would get up early and I'd meditate,

Take care of myself.

And his changes came a lot more slowly.

So one of the biggest changes I did was in 2018,

I started seeing a holistic healthcare practitioner,

Chiropractor,

And does a different type of chiropractic,

Not a cracking bones,

Chiropractic,

But very energy opening and releasing and all the work that the chiropractors do with the nervous system.

And it changed me from the inside out,

Going there and being there.

And the beauty is now I work there.

I work at this office.

One of the biggest changes.

So my husband was dealing with a physical pain and it was really detrimental because the physical pain was affecting everything and he just couldn't get his mind off of it.

And about five ish months after I started care at this office,

Never suggested it to him.

Maybe I did like once or twice,

But I really didn't.

I just kept going.

And I don't know,

Cause I'm not him.

I can't say from his perspective,

What shifted.

But he had been going from doctor to doctor to doctor,

And there was just no solution in sight.

So he was like,

You know what I might as well just do,

Do this too.

Might as well just go talk to this guy and see.

And it was the thing that changed.

But he made that decision on his own.

He made the decision to go to this office on his own.

He went under care.

And it just shifted him within a month or two,

May at no more than three.

His pain had gone away and things started changing.

It was really,

Really powerful,

But he started just making these decisions on his own and I was just letting it happen.

And then a couple of months later,

He ended up finding a coach that he found online and has been working with that coach.

Gosh,

I guess it's almost three years now has been working with that coach for three years.

And through that coach just kind of slowly started making his own changes.

And it was a coach I didn't know.

I just kind of allowed him to go through this experience,

Not knowing what was going to happen.

So now we sit and have conversations that are just bizarre that four,

Four years ago,

Five years ago,

Six years ago,

I don't,

I didn't think we ever would have had.

And we're just continuing to learn and to grow together.

So those are the biggest changes.

I've watched him now want to be a coach himself,

Which is really cool to kind of watch and see.

So that was the biggest change.

I just allowed him to go on his journey and really took myself out of the equation.

Not knowing what was going to happen.

Was this going to bring us closer or was this going to bring us apart?

I had no idea.

It brought us closer.

So yay,

Little happy,

Happy note there,

But no matter what would have happened,

I had to be open to it.

And I had to know I couldn't change him.

I couldn't change him.

Only he could do it.

So hopefully that answers your question.

Yeah.

Yeah.

My partner and I went to have kids someday in the future,

But I'm so anxious,

Even with the idea of being a parent to the parents here,

How to navigate and move through that need to be perfect.

There's this fear of damaging another being that blocks me out.

Oh,

Okay.

Yeah.

I'm sure you're going to get a bunch of responses.

I did the same with holistic chiropractor.

Sounds kind of like where we are moving.

Yay.

That's awesome.

Just continue taking care of you,

But not,

And continue supporting your partner on their journey as well.

That's the biggest thing,

Not intervening,

Not trying to change,

But just allowing them to go on their journey and just supporting them.

So what I really learned to say to my husband was like,

He'd kind of be venting or talking.

And I'm like,

I can't,

I would actually say like,

I can't listen right now because I feel like I'm going to get angry.

So I just can't listen to the complaining right now.

It's just not going to work.

I can say that to him now.

And he's like,

Okay,

Well,

You can go complain to someone else,

But I know I'm not in a space to actually listen.

But what I would also do is as he was kind of talking and complaining,

I would actually kind of,

I would listen,

But I wasn't fully listening.

So I was kind of talking to myself of like,

You know,

Repeating affirmations of like,

Just letting him vent.

He's allowed,

He's allowed to have his emotions.

These are his emotions,

Allow him that space,

Provide him that space and that support,

But try not to take it on.

And then I would go and like do something else to take care of myself.

So just giving them that space to be who they are as well.

Yeah.

Oh,

Katrina talking about having kids is the best decision ever.

They are good.

We are all human and humans are broken and beautiful to be able to walk through this world with these other beings.

It's I'm going to cry.

It is a privilege,

Katrina.

I agree with you a thousand percent.

Emily says,

I'm a parent of two young kids and both have taught me wonderful things,

But the work I needed to do was internal meditate and grow.

So what I will say,

Children will be your greatest teachers.

They will teach you all the things that you never wanted to learn.

They will be your mirror and they will show you your shadows.

And if you are doing this work now,

I have chills and my toes are freezing.

But if you are doing this work now and you're going to bring children into this world,

Embrace it.

You will not be perfect.

You will make mistakes.

You will continue to learn.

And that beautiful baby,

Those beautiful children are going to grow along with you and they're going to be a part of your journey.

It's a learning process.

I would,

I still beat myself up with like,

Oh my God,

I did this thing.

And now I scarred my child.

And now I'm like all these things I'm working on to heal.

I'm like,

Right now I'm giving my kids more stuff to heal.

But I listened to a podcast a couple of months ago.

I can't remember which it is.

So I apologize.

But they were,

It was two authors were talking and she said,

You know,

I realized my job wasn't to keep them from creating trauma in their lives or creating issues or creating things for them,

But it was teaching them that once they had those issues,

How to work through them.

And by doing this work I'm teaching,

She said she was teaching her kids that they could go do this work themselves because she's not always going to be there.

There's going to be coaches.

There's going to be teachers.

There's going to be friends.

There's going to be friends,

Parents.

There's going to be other influences.

And if we are able to teach our children to do this work and to embrace what's going on in life and to accept life and to continue moving forward,

Then we're doing the best that we can.

And we are giving them the tools to move through life.

We're not going to give them a perfect life.

But if we,

As parents,

My goal is to give my kids as many tools as possible to move through this life,

Because I'm not always going to be there.

They're going to go off and they're there in school and they're hearing things at school and hearing things from friends and teachers that I don't have control over.

But if I can do my best to show them and provide them with the tools to live a really fulfilling,

Happy life,

Then that's all I can really focus on.

That's where I keep my mindset at.

Yeah.

We learn and we grow and have fun laughing.

Yeah.

They are like having little comedians in the house.

Oh,

You're welcome.

I'm so glad that was supportive for you.

Oh,

Much love to you,

Too.

And so glad you're here as well.

Awesome.

All right.

So we are gearing up close to the 45 minute mark.

So.

Does anybody have any comments or questions?

I feel like,

Like,

What else can I say?

We just had a really big conversation.

We did lead a little way from manifesting in 2021,

But I think it was the conversation that needed to happen.

And I'm grateful for all of you for being here.

So there's one thing I feel like we can walk away with.

It's that we're not perfect.

Shine a light on all of your emotions.

And keep moving through life and putting one foot in front of the other.

That's a really beautiful quote.

No idea where it came from,

But it's when sometimes life hands you situations when all you can do is put one foot in front of the other.

One of my favorite quotes.

I found it.

It's funny.

It's a little funny story is that was the quote in my eighth grade yearbook.

When I graduated eighth grade,

All the eighth graders got to put little quotes.

And I found that one and it just stuck with me.

I think I used it as my senior year of high school quote,

Too.

Sometimes life hands you situations when all you can do is put one foot in front of the other.

This is a really beautiful quote.

And we just do we just have to stand up.

We can sit down.

We can get beat up.

We can feel it.

Feel it.

Feel the emotions.

Accept it.

But then know what's the best thing I can do?

Stand up and keep moving forward.

Stand up and keep moving forward.

That's it.

Yeah,

How kids Yes,

Are the kids are our mirrors and our shadows.

This is being recorded.

Yes.

Yes.

Summer star.

This is being recorded and I will upload it this week.

I asked her if we need an easel for the whiteboard.

I would love an easel for the whiteboard.

That's actually a great idea.

Dave,

I would I would be open to that.

Yes.

Yeah.

Oh,

Yes.

Summer star manifested a trip.

She's been coming on here live for a while and she manifested a trip.

She's got her passport,

Which you didn't procrastinate.

What about empaths?

I'm very sensitive to others energy.

So my emotions tend to go all over the place.

Continue to be aware.

We're all empaths.

So we are all empaths.

Because we all take on emotions.

We feel things we feel a lot of things.

So understanding of just being more aware and as you are more aware,

It's not going to be perfect from day one.

So I've got friends who are really big empaths and they take on a lot of energy and they're they're very cautious and careful of where their energy is coming from.

And they're very aware of like is,

You know,

I believe my one friend will say she asked herself the question,

Is this mine?

Or is this somebody else's?

And it's a constant questioning of yourself.

This is my emotion or somebody else's?

I don't know if this is mine or somebody else's.

But this is what I'm feeling.

And then continuing to be open and honest and say,

This is what I'm feeling.

Not sure if this is mine or somebody else's,

But I'm just going with it.

So that's,

That's a really beautiful place to be.

Yeah.

Oh,

Summer Star.

Yes,

I have a podcast,

If you'd like.

So I put my lives only go up here on Insight Timer.

I'm actually going to stop the recording real briefly.

So thank you for so much for listening to manifesting in 2022.
