1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,560
Tell me more about your vision for Lift One Self.

2
00:00:04,560 --> 00:00:07,220
So my vision is exactly the word that she said

3
00:00:07,220 --> 00:00:10,400
is to create safety and sacred spaces.

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,480
And it's also change.

5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,920
And so what I know about change is changes within.

6
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,840
So if I can hold the space for people to go within

7
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,400
their body, then they can begin the change.

8
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,280
And then that starts to ignite all around us.

9
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,740
And that's where we see a different world.

10
00:00:26,740 --> 00:00:29,920
Everybody wants to say they want to change in the world,

11
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,080
yet they're not willing to do their own work.

12
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,640
They want to place the blame where

13
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,360
if you start doing your own work,

14
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,600
then you can hold the space for others to do their own work.

15
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,720
And then that's where we'll see the change.

16
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,800
And that's exactly it's that what

17
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,920
is that one finger pointing at someone else

18
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:47,400
and the rest pointing back at you

19
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,480
and knowing that we have to do the work on our own.

20
00:00:49,480 --> 00:00:53,440
And that definitely aligns with what you've been saying.

21
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,200
It's just creating a safe space to be vulnerable

22
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,720
and to have understanding that it's OK to cry.

23
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,120
And but it's also a good time to reflect and understand

24
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,020
that it starts with you before you can actually

25
00:01:06,020 --> 00:01:06,720
change the world.

26
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,640
We really can't change unless we do change ourselves.

27
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:16,200
And another one too is I know we talk about sadness and peace.

28
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,320
There's also befriending anger.

29
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:20,420
Anger is a very healthy emotion also.

30
00:01:20,420 --> 00:01:24,040
And to be able to let go of the rage,

31
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,400
when you're feeling helpless and there's

32
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,760
a lot of things that are going on in the world that we're

33
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,520
being aware of that makes us feel helpless.

34
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,720
So it ignites the anger and rage.

35
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,040
And your body needs some expression.

36
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,040
And so working with it rather than repressing it

37
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,960
or suppressing it or actually taking some actions

38
00:01:43,960 --> 00:01:47,080
that you don't want to because that's not the way that you

39
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,240
want to show up.

40
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,280
So it's actually working with the energy

41
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,880
and changing the narrative of, well,

42
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,440
what is this actual emotion?

43
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,260
What are the underpinnings so that I

44
00:01:57,260 --> 00:02:00,160
can stay within myself and not tell myself

45
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,240
I should be something other or feel something other

46
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,600
than what my experience is?

47
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,360
Makes all the sense in the world.

48
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,200
I remember hearing the boiling pot.

49
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,600
And I believe that that's us taking our anger

50
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,880
and suppressing it and pushing it down and down and down

51
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,040
or and then topping it with so many other feelings

52
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,520
until that one day comes where you can't control anything

53
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,960
in that pot and it's just boiling and it's just like,

54
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:25,460
boom.

55
00:02:25,460 --> 00:02:28,440
And now you've put yourself in a situation

56
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,320
to where there's nothing else you can do

57
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,040
but show the anger that you've pressed down so much.

58
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,840
So I really do love that.

59
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,560
I love that you said that because so many people say

60
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:40,960
it's horrible to be angry.

61
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:46,040
It's then coming out and it's more rage.

62
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,160
I think there is a healthy angry.

63
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:49,520
There is a healthy anger.

64
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,160
And the rage is the part that where you end up suppressing in

65
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,200
and now it's just coming out on everyone and everything.

66
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,400
So I definitely, I can see that.

67
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:00,520
And I love that.

68
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,480
I totally love that.

69
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:07,280
When it comes to all of this and you starting this,

70
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,520
how long have you been, how long has this been going on

71
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,160
for you, this business?

72
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,760
I created Lift One Self in 2019, the summer of it,

73
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,720
and then bang, COVID happened.

74
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,160
I was about to ask.

75
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,760
Go ahead, talk about it.

76
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,800
Yes, so COVID happened.

77
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,520
So that first year I was in a lot of empathy

78
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,360
and seeing that a lot of people were in pain.

79
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,280
So I offered a lot of freeness and offering my space.

80
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,360
And actually also as a parent of two

81
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,000
navigating through those waters,

82
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,240
I had already pulled my children out of the school system

83
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,480
to do some homeschooling.

84
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,620
So I wasn't forced into it.

85
00:03:44,620 --> 00:03:47,360
So it was a different transition.

86
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,920
Yet we did a lot of outdoor things.

87
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,240
And so being told that you can't go outdoors

88
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,640
and not able to do this and that, we had to pivot.

89
00:03:55,640 --> 00:04:00,080
And I had to take better care of myself with the stress

90
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,800
and being isolated and me seeing it a different way

91
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,240
than anybody else.

92
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,360
So I had already went through death

93
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,520
and had a better relationship with it.

94
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:15,440
So it gave me more of a curriculum to better have the verbiage

95
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,960
and the simplicity in my language to serve others.

96
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,680
So that's why this year now I've been on so many podcasts

97
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,680
and offering my presence of there's a different way

98
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,860
of being able to better understand your biology

99
00:04:30,860 --> 00:04:33,740
and better understand what regulating your nervous system

100
00:04:33,740 --> 00:04:36,480
and what your authentic emotions are.

101
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,320
So this is where at times you have to get planted again

102
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,640
and go down and make sure that those roots

103
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,120
are more stronger so that when the winds come,

104
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,980
you're not getting pulled out.

105
00:04:46,980 --> 00:04:49,920
So that's what COVID did for me and the business

106
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,120
to better understand it and what I can offer to others.

107
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,800
Absolutely, because at that point in time,

108
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,440
you had to lift oneself up and everybody else in the home.

109
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,640
I had often said during that time,

110
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,840
it either make you or break you.

111
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:08,240
Just the isolation was just something so different

112
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,400
that never experienced, it was a make or break.

113
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,160
And that's in business, that's in oneself,

114
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,080
that's in parenting, that's in relationships overall.

115
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,320
I mean, that was a time.

116
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,140
So to create this in 2019,

117
00:05:24,140 --> 00:05:27,600
it seems like that was something that was divine.

118
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,000
It's like, oh, I'm gonna put this in your head,

119
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,840
but let me take it even further.

120
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:33,600
I'm about to shut the world down.

121
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,240
Now what can you do?

122
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,560
Exactly, and it showed me that times,

123
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,000
something will be planted in you

124
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,160
and we want momentum right away.

125
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,000
Yet you have to remember what slow momentum is

126
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,800
and see that do you have the patience

127
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,560
for the endurance of the long-term?

128
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,680
Because when you don't have the attention or the momentum,

129
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,720
it's like you wanna give up because what's the point

130
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,280
where it's like, actually, you might be in a cocoon

131
00:05:59,280 --> 00:06:01,840
somewhere to better understand yourself.

132
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:04,720
And like everybody talks about the caterpillar,

133
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,340
the cocoon and the butterfly,

134
00:06:06,340 --> 00:06:08,680
what they don't talk about is where the cocoon,

135
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,620
the caterpillar is eating itself and turning into goo.

136
00:06:11,620 --> 00:06:13,520
So that doesn't feel good,

137
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,480
yet you weren't seeing that there's transformation going on.

138
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,920
So it allowed me to really understand

139
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,960
more of a business perspective,

140
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,840
where also understanding my ego of needing that validation

141
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:28,760
and recognizing this is much more profound than that.

142
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,840
Absolutely, I love that, I love that.

143
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:34,560
It is so crazy how our journey

144
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,300
is not necessarily set by ourselves,

145
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:41,620
but if we are okay with who we are and within ourselves,

146
00:06:41,620 --> 00:06:45,000
the journey can be easily set out for you

147
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,040
rather than us taking the wrong road

148
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,240
and doing the wrong thing.

149
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,920
And so when it comes to being,

150
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,400
now you said you've been on several podcasts.

151
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,120
When it comes for us, what's your goal

152
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,240
for being on the show?

153
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,220
What would you like and where would you like that to go?

154
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,120
I would love to create collaboration

155
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,120
and understand that the listeners that are listening in,

156
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,720
you're here for a reason.

157
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,840
And I just want to direct you back within yourself even more

158
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,300
and to know that there's community out there.

159
00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:21,600
So like-minded of what you guys are creating out

160
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,320
into the podcast world and YouTube world

161
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,400
of showing people that you can have a vision for your life,

162
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,240
no matter how small or big it may look like,

163
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,280
it's your vision and it matters.

164
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,200
So I just want to amplify that to remind people

165
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,880
that there's so much more potential in themselves,

166
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,400
yet they just have to regulate their nervous system.

167
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,080
And once they do, that's where the magic begins.

168
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,260
Absolutely.

169
00:07:46,260 --> 00:07:47,240
I love that.

170
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:48,280
I love that.

171
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,740
So with you doing this and you actually,

172
00:07:51,740 --> 00:07:55,440
I believe, I guess I would say that this had taken flight

173
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,800
really 2021, 22 for you.

174
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,000
Yeah, about that.

175
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,400
Because another thing that happened is in 2022,

176
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,240
my friend was diagnosed with breast cancer

177
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,900
and then pancreatic cancer all in a span of three months.

178
00:08:10,900 --> 00:08:13,600
So I was assisting her and she was only given

179
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,320
three months to live.

180
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,680
Yet here she is about, in March it was a year.

181
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,040
So we're in July now.

182
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,200
And like she says, if it wasn't for me,

183
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,560
she wouldn't be here.

184
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:30,560
So that took, that also showed what I'm able to do

185
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:35,440
with the regulation in regulating the nervous system

186
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,020
and helping to bring back homeostasis and stuff like that.

187
00:08:39,020 --> 00:08:43,000
So I would say 2023 is where I've been now

188
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,560
really supporting Lift One's self

189
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:48,680
and bringing it out to the masses

190
00:08:48,680 --> 00:08:51,000
so that they can see what's possible

191
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,840
within their own biology.

192
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:53,800
Absolutely.

193
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,440
So everything that you pretty much do

194
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,120
is pretty much online, right?

195
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,320
And over the telephone and is that Zoom as well?

196
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:02,720
It's Zoom.

197
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,760
I do my sessions through Zoom

198
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,680
so that I can see the body image

199
00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:11,920
because I can hear it in a tone also

200
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,920
because I can feel it energetically.

201
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,840
Yet I wanna create safety also

202
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,940
so that when somebody sees an expression

203
00:09:18,940 --> 00:09:21,440
that they can see that I can reveal my vulnerability

204
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,240
and somebody's not gonna turn away.

205
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,960
So that brings more safety into the world.

206
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,200
And when I see people,

207
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,520
I can see when they're blocking certain emotions.

208
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,160
So I'll be like, bring that out.

209
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,960
Like what that right there, let's let it come out.

210
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,560
So it can have the light of your awareness

211
00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:39,820
and it can see that it's safe to feel that expression

212
00:09:39,820 --> 00:09:44,160
and go through the arc of the charge.

213
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:49,040
So your position in this, is it energy healer

214
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,280
or what is your title mask?

215
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,120
I title it energy healing,

216
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,440
yet I think I'm gonna go more into regulating

217
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,200
the nervous system, cause that's what I'm doing.

218
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,640
Cause I really understand the nervous system.

219
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,040
Cause like I said, those lesions in my brainstem

220
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,960
and my cerebellum gave me a front seat window

221
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,600
with the nervous system and seeing these chemical dumps.

222
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,840
And I had to relearn how to walk

223
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:17,040
and formulate thoughts together and take actions

224
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,440
and bring back energy into my body

225
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,200
to be able to function and everything else.

226
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,040
So it's going to be probably,

227
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,720
that's where I'm going to pivot

228
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,880
where it's gonna be nervous system regulation

229
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,020
by anchoring in your breath.

230
00:10:34,020 --> 00:10:35,320
Got it, got it.

231
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,760
So as a leader in this and everywhere

232
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,560
that you're wanting to go,

233
00:10:41,560 --> 00:10:44,880
where do you see the challenges?

234
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,620
And this is a question that we ask everyone.

235
00:10:48,620 --> 00:10:51,240
When it comes to funding your vision,

236
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,760
why do you believe that leaders hide

237
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,080
from funding their vision?

238
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:56,760
So although you're on Zoom

239
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,120
and I'm sure you're at a place right now

240
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,280
where your Zoom is not the free Zoom, right?

241
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,320
You're now trying to fund your vision

242
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,480
and where you're going to go,

243
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,920
where are you going to go?

244
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:10,240
Where are you headed to?

245
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,560
And what does that look like?

246
00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:15,580
And how do you feel about leaders funding their vision?

247
00:11:15,580 --> 00:11:19,220
You know, with anything that you believe in,

248
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:22,100
you're going to have to use the currency to spend.

249
00:11:22,100 --> 00:11:23,700
So you're going to have to spend,

250
00:11:23,700 --> 00:11:25,300
you're going to have to fund.

251
00:11:25,300 --> 00:11:28,940
I think at the beginning when 2020 happened,

252
00:11:28,940 --> 00:11:32,260
I got to see that I had a relationship with currency,

253
00:11:32,260 --> 00:11:34,020
which is money funding,

254
00:11:34,020 --> 00:11:37,300
yet there was still a part where it was blocking me.

255
00:11:37,300 --> 00:11:39,900
And so this year, that's why I'm putting myself out

256
00:11:39,900 --> 00:11:44,620
because I understand that I'm deserving of receiving.

257
00:11:44,620 --> 00:11:46,940
And that's the work that leaders have to do.

258
00:11:46,940 --> 00:11:50,580
It's very good to give, give, give all the time.

259
00:11:50,580 --> 00:11:54,040
Yet you also have to learn to receive

260
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:58,500
and understand that if you believe in a higher power,

261
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:00,660
then that funding will be supported

262
00:12:00,660 --> 00:12:03,780
and you'll be in alignment of finding those doors

263
00:12:03,780 --> 00:12:05,640
and those opportunities.

264
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,160
And it's going to take some action

265
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:08,820
that is needed for yourself.

266
00:12:08,820 --> 00:12:12,820
Yet it really takes a different relationship with currency

267
00:12:12,820 --> 00:12:16,300
to understand where can we go and take some risks.

268
00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:17,340
Like any business,

269
00:12:17,340 --> 00:12:20,100
you're going to have to go into the unknown and uncertainty.

270
00:12:20,100 --> 00:12:22,700
You're going to have to take some risks and some gambles,

271
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:25,660
yet be intentional with it.

272
00:12:25,660 --> 00:12:27,580
So that if there is a loss

273
00:12:27,580 --> 00:12:30,040
that you will see it as a learning loss.

274
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,660
It's not like a loss,

275
00:12:31,660 --> 00:12:35,380
there's still something to be taught and learned in

276
00:12:35,380 --> 00:12:38,700
so that you can still pivot and still keep momentum.

277
00:12:38,700 --> 00:12:41,280
So I think with the vision that I have,

278
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,660
I'm doing these small intimate ways,

279
00:12:43,660 --> 00:12:48,020
yet I'm envisioning bigger retreats and bigger stages,

280
00:12:48,020 --> 00:12:50,940
bringing myself in different places of the world

281
00:12:50,940 --> 00:12:55,200
so that when they're in my frequency of my nervous system,

282
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:56,940
they can feel that safety

283
00:12:56,940 --> 00:12:59,860
so that they can regulate their own nervous system

284
00:12:59,860 --> 00:13:01,080
and see what's possible.

285
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:01,920
Cause like you said,

286
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,740
I'm living testimony of something that you don't see as much,

287
00:13:06,740 --> 00:13:10,540
yet I'm living proof that there is things that are possible.

288
00:13:10,540 --> 00:13:12,780
That I love this.

289
00:13:12,780 --> 00:13:15,380
I so love this because it fits,

290
00:13:15,380 --> 00:13:18,820
it all fits with lifting, lift oneself,

291
00:13:18,820 --> 00:13:23,740
and everything that I've read on your website.

292
00:13:23,740 --> 00:13:27,500
And then I also went and I saw some of your podcast

293
00:13:27,500 --> 00:13:31,180
on Facebook and I was like, okay.

294
00:13:31,180 --> 00:13:34,180
And then for you to come on and it all to marry,

295
00:13:34,180 --> 00:13:37,900
I think that's one of the things that we have come to see.

296
00:13:37,900 --> 00:13:39,220
So transparency,

297
00:13:39,220 --> 00:13:42,180
this is actually my first co-hosting free show.

298
00:13:42,180 --> 00:13:46,140
And the cool part about it is when we read

299
00:13:46,140 --> 00:13:48,340
and I've done things differently

300
00:13:48,340 --> 00:13:53,340
and I've been lifting oneself to say in my past,

301
00:13:54,860 --> 00:13:59,020
but to see and read and then go to the patterns

302
00:13:59,020 --> 00:14:01,260
of what you have or what you submitted,

303
00:14:01,260 --> 00:14:05,900
it actually marries when you talk while speaking.

304
00:14:05,900 --> 00:14:09,340
So I really, really see that this is something

305
00:14:09,340 --> 00:14:13,820
that you're very strongly feel about

306
00:14:13,820 --> 00:14:18,820
and that you have a great vision and you're so there.

307
00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:23,100
It's not wavering because of the simple fact

308
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:24,580
this was your own testimony.

309
00:14:24,580 --> 00:14:28,220
And I think that's where a lot of good leaders come in at

310
00:14:28,220 --> 00:14:30,180
is having their own testimony

311
00:14:30,180 --> 00:14:32,420
and being able to take that testimony

312
00:14:32,420 --> 00:14:34,740
to actually help somebody else.

313
00:14:34,740 --> 00:14:39,740
So I don't really have any other questions.

314
00:14:40,980 --> 00:14:43,340
Do you have anything for me?

315
00:14:44,300 --> 00:14:46,220
What is your vision?

316
00:14:46,220 --> 00:14:49,140
What's your vision for you personally

317
00:14:49,140 --> 00:14:53,260
and your vision of how you service other people?

318
00:14:53,260 --> 00:14:55,860
My vision is very interesting.

319
00:14:55,860 --> 00:14:59,780
And so when, as I'm working on myself right now,

320
00:14:59,780 --> 00:15:04,780
I say daily that I wanna make a living eulogy.

321
00:15:04,980 --> 00:15:09,260
And often, seeing so many funerals happen, COVID happen

322
00:15:09,260 --> 00:15:11,460
and so much death going around,

323
00:15:11,460 --> 00:15:16,180
you see the joy and the love of people when others are gone.

324
00:15:16,180 --> 00:15:20,580
And that's not when we necessarily need to hear it, right?

325
00:15:20,580 --> 00:15:22,780
Because that's the spirit talking.

326
00:15:22,780 --> 00:15:26,540
So daily, I want to love unconditionally.

327
00:15:26,540 --> 00:15:29,620
I want to work hard and be kind,

328
00:15:29,620 --> 00:15:31,620
which is the shirt that I have on.

329
00:15:31,620 --> 00:15:34,940
And I want to make sure that I realize

330
00:15:34,940 --> 00:15:37,460
that no one is disposable.

331
00:15:37,460 --> 00:15:39,860
So we tend to pick and choose.

332
00:15:39,860 --> 00:15:42,340
And for myself, if I can spiritually say,

333
00:15:42,340 --> 00:15:43,580
I do believe in God.

334
00:15:43,580 --> 00:15:47,380
And so I think the biggest thing for us

335
00:15:47,380 --> 00:15:50,740
is to love one another.

336
00:15:50,740 --> 00:15:52,980
And that's the true, but sometimes the biggest

337
00:15:52,980 --> 00:15:55,340
and the hardest thing is to love people

338
00:15:55,340 --> 00:15:56,380
that are hard to love.

339
00:15:56,380 --> 00:16:00,460
So in my daily eulogy and to create that eulogy

340
00:16:00,460 --> 00:16:03,540
is to say, I'm gonna love you regardless of who you are.

341
00:16:03,540 --> 00:16:06,300
And I'm going to want to be able to connect with you

342
00:16:06,300 --> 00:16:07,140
on a level.

343
00:16:07,140 --> 00:16:08,420
And we may not be that connection

344
00:16:08,420 --> 00:16:10,300
where we stay together forever,

345
00:16:10,300 --> 00:16:12,740
but I can accept you for who you are

346
00:16:12,740 --> 00:16:15,420
because for everyone, there's a story.

347
00:16:15,420 --> 00:16:17,980
And so, because I may not know that story

348
00:16:17,980 --> 00:16:20,180
or nor do I have the opportunity

349
00:16:20,180 --> 00:16:22,900
or they don't become that vulnerable to tell me that story,

350
00:16:22,900 --> 00:16:25,940
I know without a shadow of a doubt, everyone has a story.

351
00:16:25,940 --> 00:16:29,060
And that story can affect the present.

352
00:16:29,060 --> 00:16:30,820
And that might not be towards me,

353
00:16:30,820 --> 00:16:32,580
but it could be just towards the story

354
00:16:32,580 --> 00:16:36,500
and that opportunity to not meeting someone like yourself,

355
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:40,620
to give them that space and that safe place to say,

356
00:16:40,620 --> 00:16:43,460
I can change, I just have to deal with the gut

357
00:16:43,460 --> 00:16:45,300
and everything that's in there

358
00:16:45,300 --> 00:16:47,300
that I don't necessarily have control over

359
00:16:47,300 --> 00:16:48,820
nor do I know how to say.

360
00:16:48,820 --> 00:16:51,940
So for me, that's my vision.

361
00:16:51,940 --> 00:16:54,020
Those are the things that I see.

362
00:16:54,020 --> 00:16:57,380
And at the end of the day, I just really believe

363
00:16:57,380 --> 00:17:01,460
that we don't have control over a lot, right?

364
00:17:01,460 --> 00:17:02,780
And it's okay.

365
00:17:02,780 --> 00:17:05,060
And when you don't have control and you let go,

366
00:17:05,060 --> 00:17:09,340
when you try to focus on the day and the present,

367
00:17:09,340 --> 00:17:10,900
then I think all is well.

368
00:17:10,900 --> 00:17:11,900
All is well.

369
00:17:11,900 --> 00:17:13,220
