WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.680 Hi, Javanka. Good morning to you. Thank you for 00:00:03.680 --> 00:00:07.120 having me here. It is truly an honor for giving 00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:11.519 me your space to share about my journey, basically 00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:16.539 my story. So right now, what you mentioned, currently 00:00:16.539 --> 00:00:19.519 what I'm doing is, well, let's just put it this 00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:23.140 way. I am the founder of the movement Worthy, 00:00:23.140 --> 00:00:29.179 Authentic, and Abundant. Why Worthy? Why authentic? 00:00:29.300 --> 00:00:31.780 Why founded? Well, simple. I like to keep things 00:00:31.780 --> 00:00:35.979 very simple. Worthy is because you need to find 00:00:35.979 --> 00:00:38.020 your worth. So whether you're at a corporate 00:00:38.020 --> 00:00:40.340 or whether you're on your entrepreneurial journey, 00:00:40.460 --> 00:00:44.179 you have to know your worth. But how do we know 00:00:44.179 --> 00:00:49.920 your worth? For me, life had to humble me for 00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:55.000 me to really look within. Who am I and what? 00:00:56.039 --> 00:00:59.640 Who am I supposed to be and how do I want to 00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:02.679 present myself out into the world? And in that, 00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:07.579 I need to unlearn a lot of things. Second part 00:01:07.579 --> 00:01:11.540 would be authentic. I don't want to say that 00:01:11.540 --> 00:01:15.859 it's being loosely used in the world right now, 00:01:15.900 --> 00:01:21.540 but truly, if you're not authentic, because everybody's 00:01:21.540 --> 00:01:25.140 born an original, nobody's born a copy. right 00:01:25.140 --> 00:01:27.819 you are one of one and i also don't believe in 00:01:27.819 --> 00:01:32.299 this phrase of one in a million so yes and once 00:01:32.299 --> 00:01:35.560 you know your worth that that that means that 00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:37.939 takes unrooting certain limiting beliefs that 00:01:37.939 --> 00:01:40.439 you have since your your you know childhood or 00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:42.700 adolescent years or it could even be your adult 00:01:42.700 --> 00:01:47.840 years you present yourself to the world as your 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:52.909 truest essence and automatically this too you'll 00:01:52.909 --> 00:01:56.049 be stepping to your most abundant timeline and 00:01:56.049 --> 00:01:59.569 that's why it's that tagline of mine yes yes 00:01:59.569 --> 00:02:03.930 i love that and um understanding your worth i 00:02:03.930 --> 00:02:07.870 i often believe that that that might be the most 00:02:07.870 --> 00:02:10.689 complex thing if you don't take time to sit with 00:02:10.689 --> 00:02:14.830 yourself And truly, as you mentioned, unlearn 00:02:14.830 --> 00:02:17.689 a lot of things because a lot of things that 00:02:17.689 --> 00:02:20.849 we tend to do in life is often based on, like 00:02:20.849 --> 00:02:23.229 you said, our childhood, the way we grew up, 00:02:23.250 --> 00:02:26.250 the environment that we're in. So I truly love 00:02:26.250 --> 00:02:28.550 that. And to be authentic, as I mentioned to 00:02:28.550 --> 00:02:31.830 you, me coming on here and knowing very little 00:02:31.830 --> 00:02:34.389 about you because I want the world to know that, 00:02:34.389 --> 00:02:37.550 you know, we're all on this journey. Most of 00:02:37.550 --> 00:02:41.439 us are on this journey to. finding who we are 00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:46.219 and with who we are definitely determines where 00:02:46.219 --> 00:02:49.259 we'll be today and go, you know, in the future, 00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:51.639 which means right now we're talking about our 00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:54.599 careers and entrepreneurship and what that looks 00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:58.259 like for you. So off screen, we did have a conversation 00:02:58.259 --> 00:03:02.400 about where you were, your story. Go ahead and 00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:04.460 share with everybody else because I'd love for 00:03:04.460 --> 00:03:10.180 them to hear it as well. Okay. Right. So my story 00:03:10.180 --> 00:03:16.060 is a bit of, there's always, okay, growing up, 00:03:16.060 --> 00:03:20.379 I've always been an overachiever. And for most 00:03:20.379 --> 00:03:22.740 of the part, it's for good reasons. You know, 00:03:22.780 --> 00:03:26.699 I am who I am because of that. And that drive 00:03:26.699 --> 00:03:31.240 really drove me to attain what I've attained. 00:03:31.419 --> 00:03:35.479 But that also provided me with a very false foundation 00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:41.240 of what success. is um or was you know how i 00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:44.939 viewed success before now my grew up in a middle 00:03:44.939 --> 00:03:51.199 class uh family dad always told me that knowledge 00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:56.919 is power education is key so you've got to you 00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:00.180 know work excuse my language your ass off at 00:04:00.180 --> 00:04:03.719 school so you can you know get the job graduate 00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:10.000 become you know the valedictorian and then work 00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.319 your way up the corporate ladder and i thought 00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:15.240 that that was what i envisioned myself and that 00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:21.660 was the vision of success that is ideal for me 00:04:21.660 --> 00:04:27.579 yes but little did i know it wasn't at all um 00:04:27.579 --> 00:04:34.399 when i remember at 17 at 30 at 17 i imagined 00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:39.759 my life would be sorted Settle down, have kids, 00:04:41.139 --> 00:04:46.660 get my good, on the way to a C -suite position. 00:04:46.939 --> 00:04:51.120 Yes. Okay. And taking off those milestone house, 00:04:51.420 --> 00:04:55.300 cars, whatever. And all this, the accumulation 00:04:55.300 --> 00:04:59.160 of material possessions. Yeah. But at 30, I found 00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:08.970 myself divorced, burnout. And having to rethink 00:05:08.970 --> 00:05:13.569 about this whole identity that, hey, I used to 00:05:13.569 --> 00:05:16.629 be an overachiever, but I don't think I align 00:05:16.629 --> 00:05:20.290 with that anymore. In terms of, and the context 00:05:20.290 --> 00:05:26.689 is doing things my way and only my way without 00:05:26.689 --> 00:05:31.329 regard to what I should be doing, what's aligning, 00:05:31.389 --> 00:05:38.540 what is aligned to my soul purpose. Yes. And 00:05:38.540 --> 00:05:43.500 that's that for now. Okay. Yeah. No, no, no. 00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:46.300 And that's, that's good because at the end of 00:05:46.300 --> 00:05:50.160 the day, it tells the journey of what I, our 00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:54.240 idea was at such a different age, right? 17 to 00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:57.800 30. I hate to say it. I'm 46. So when I say this, 00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:00.699 it's not, I don't want it to be bad. It's a big 00:06:00.699 --> 00:06:03.300 difference, right? What we think we want at 17 00:06:03.300 --> 00:06:07.720 and then what we want at 30. What I thought at 00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:11.379 36 and what I think now at 46, I'm like, not 00:06:11.379 --> 00:06:15.839 the same. So with that said, you now are an entrepreneur. 00:06:15.980 --> 00:06:19.259 And what's the name of your business? Well, it 00:06:19.259 --> 00:06:23.839 is the Nick Nearest Holistic Lifestyle. OK. And 00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:27.620 with that, with that story and as you told that. 00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:33.759 Tell us more about how this fits into who you 00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:38.060 are and your purpose now. So, okay. So I guess 00:06:38.060 --> 00:06:44.199 that's a follow -up to my story. 2023. So the 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:47.939 whole spiritual awakening, me having to look 00:06:47.939 --> 00:06:51.600 within, started my journey inwards, was the year 00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:54.680 that I got divorced, 2019. And it's also a year 00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:58.389 before COVID. So I thought to myself, okay the 00:06:58.389 --> 00:07:01.170 love department isn't for me but that was the 00:07:01.170 --> 00:07:03.709 first time that actually felt worthless because 00:07:03.709 --> 00:07:07.430 i remember fighting for the um the marriage to 00:07:07.430 --> 00:07:12.089 you know to not fall apart but we had to go in 00:07:12.089 --> 00:07:16.250 our separate ways um there were things that we 00:07:16.250 --> 00:07:20.550 needed to learn separately and things that were 00:07:20.550 --> 00:07:23.170 that we thought were right then but it wasn't 00:07:23.170 --> 00:07:27.610 right when we got together so i completely shifted 00:07:27.610 --> 00:07:30.430 my focus to work because it was at the height 00:07:30.430 --> 00:07:34.670 of my career when we got divorced and covid happened 00:07:34.670 --> 00:07:37.269 i was like okay you know what i'm gonna nail 00:07:37.269 --> 00:07:41.290 this thing i'm gonna get my promotion and i did 00:07:41.290 --> 00:07:44.009 but then the second year covid happened i started 00:07:44.009 --> 00:07:48.709 getting into projects that were crappy okay i 00:07:48.709 --> 00:07:54.339 i i was Totally. I was a star performer during 00:07:54.339 --> 00:07:56.759 the first year. And then the second year, the 00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:59.360 third year, it became very, I don't know, the 00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:03.800 universe is trying to shake me at least at my 00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:06.480 core that, hey, Nick, wake up. This is not you 00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:09.319 anymore. You're not because you did not. Number 00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:12.579 one, I think part of it, I did not grieve about 00:08:12.579 --> 00:08:16.379 the loss of the relationship because I felt that 00:08:16.379 --> 00:08:21.160 a part of myself really died with that. And then 00:08:21.160 --> 00:08:26.720 I just, because it's always go, go, go. For me, 00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:29.759 at least before, I operated in the way that if 00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:32.200 these things don't work out, I don't need rest. 00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:35.399 I mean, it's just not for me. What's the next 00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:41.419 best thing for me to work on? And that also means 00:08:41.419 --> 00:08:43.879 I was operating more in my masculine energy. 00:08:45.460 --> 00:08:50.429 And I never knew or I never really. got in touch 00:08:50.429 --> 00:08:53.149 with my feminine side like what's it what does 00:08:53.149 --> 00:08:56.389 it look like to just rest and heal and really 00:08:56.389 --> 00:09:00.529 process all those emotions and then COVID happened 00:09:00.529 --> 00:09:03.049 it was a very humbling journey for me that was 00:09:03.049 --> 00:09:05.309 the first time me being alone by myself after 00:09:05.309 --> 00:09:09.429 a long -term relationship and then I had to sit 00:09:09.429 --> 00:09:15.309 with myself and really feel that was the first 00:09:15.309 --> 00:09:17.919 time that I really feel into everything like 00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:21.899 every song that i listen to i put myself in the 00:09:21.899 --> 00:09:26.220 lyrics and the movies and i would just cry and 00:09:26.220 --> 00:09:29.820 cry and cry for days on end and after i fully 00:09:29.820 --> 00:09:34.919 i cried like bawling my eyes out um in my own 00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:38.600 apartment by myself with my cat i said is this 00:09:38.600 --> 00:09:43.559 what it means to be truly alive i had to mourn 00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:50.639 the old nicolette In hindsight, me crying was 00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:53.980 to mourn that what I identified with before is 00:09:53.980 --> 00:10:00.440 no longer my identity now. In 2021, I came across 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:05.840 Mindvalley by Vishen Lakhiani. I came across 00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:08.639 Rapid Transformational Therapy by Marisa Peer. 00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:11.679 She talks a lot about subconscious reprogramming. 00:10:13.500 --> 00:10:17.399 find out about how i could help myself yes and 00:10:17.399 --> 00:10:21.620 in turn as well use that to help other people 00:10:21.620 --> 00:10:23.919 because i know there's so many people who are 00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:28.799 in not so favorable relationship or jobs but 00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.600 and they're scared to leave because of you know 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:35.919 um that lack of stability or sense of security 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:40.259 right and i said let me be the trailblazer because 00:10:40.259 --> 00:10:43.940 you know from accounting to psychology like how 00:10:43.940 --> 00:10:49.120 big of a difference it is super fast so i took 00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:52.840 two years to find out um to really think when 00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:55.519 i saw the course it was quite expensive and it 00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:57.480 was kobe and i'm like am i gonna stay in this 00:10:57.480 --> 00:10:59.740 job i don't know how am i gonna afford this never 00:10:59.740 --> 00:11:04.120 mind two years later and i was during this period 00:11:04.120 --> 00:11:08.409 i was already into the spiritual realm like deep 00:11:08.409 --> 00:11:11.850 into it.

I cannot not say that 30 % more it 00:13:48.690 --> 00:13:51.470 is expensive right and it often happens in a 00:13:51.470 --> 00:13:55.350 timing that fits best with you so considering 00:13:55.350 --> 00:13:58.330 or thinking about the fact that you this was 00:13:58.330 --> 00:14:03.250 a journey from 2019 all the way to 2023 you have 00:14:03.250 --> 00:14:08.009 now developed this this podcast to have this 00:14:08.009 --> 00:14:12.340 discussion And now a business as an entrepreneur. 00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:15.100 And I want I do want to say this. I know I talk 00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:16.940 probably just as much as everybody else. But 00:14:16.940 --> 00:14:20.179 you said that you were you were an all in kind 00:14:20.179 --> 00:14:23.860 of person like you were. You go all in and you 00:14:23.860 --> 00:14:26.679 reach this level. You're doing the same thing, 00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:30.120 just in a different way. And I'm super, super 00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:33.080 proud of you because it's a big difference when 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:36.600 you do it to make it to a C -suite from a difference 00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:40.059 where you're making it. to feel sweet and give 00:14:40.059 --> 00:14:43.639 it all back to other people and that's what you're 00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:46.580 doing so go all in on this and that's what you 00:14:46.580 --> 00:14:49.419 did just a little 30 more but go all in on this 00:14:49.419 --> 00:14:52.940 because i'm here for the journey nick i'm here 00:14:52.940 --> 00:14:56.440 for the journey oh my god that you just you're 00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:59.360 just making my evening better javanka i'm gonna 00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:02.200 sleep better tonight but yes to echo on that 00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:04.799 like and you mentioned just before we started 00:15:04.799 --> 00:15:08.870 the interview why would you want to build somebody 00:15:08.870 --> 00:15:12.470 else's dreams when you can build yours you're 00:15:12.470 --> 00:15:14.929 already putting two thousand percent into it 00:15:14.929 --> 00:15:17.289 what if you actually put that two thousand percent 00:15:17.289 --> 00:15:22.629 into your own thing and be that light that people 00:15:22.629 --> 00:15:24.509 need in the world because i believe everybody 00:15:24.509 --> 00:15:28.509 has gifts yes and i'm not saying people in nine 00:15:28.509 --> 00:15:31.690 to five don't have gifts no you might be very 00:15:31.690 --> 00:15:38.570 content and very full with you know joy and happiness 00:15:38.570 --> 00:15:43.110 just by doing say for example um uh what's what's 00:15:43.110 --> 00:15:48.450 a good um uh just a trainer for example yeah 00:15:48.450 --> 00:15:51.710 they love to train people um on boarding new 00:15:51.710 --> 00:15:56.950 new employees and they do a excuse my language 00:15:56.950 --> 00:16:00.429 a damn good job at it and they take pride into 00:16:00.429 --> 00:16:03.809 that so it's the same thing yes but for me i'm 00:16:03.809 --> 00:16:08.120 uh i'm a non -conformist I could only confirm 00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:12.620 for so long. Yes. And I noticed when people, 00:16:12.860 --> 00:16:16.620 because I wouldn't want to take advice from people 00:16:16.620 --> 00:16:23.399 who I don't want to live their lives. Yes. Yeah. 00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:30.419 So if I don't see you are, I mean, on that par 00:16:30.419 --> 00:16:35.690 where I want to be, you're not there. Yeah. And 00:16:35.690 --> 00:16:37.750 I think what you're saying, it sounds to me like 00:16:37.750 --> 00:16:41.110 even just having a mentor or someone's desire 00:16:41.110 --> 00:16:44.950 to to be where they are. You can't follow everyone. 00:16:45.049 --> 00:16:48.049 Right. And I believe it is very interesting. 00:16:48.350 --> 00:16:51.669 We shouldn't follow anyone. It's the idea of 00:16:51.669 --> 00:16:54.070 their lifestyle is something that you would like 00:16:54.070 --> 00:16:57.110 to entertain or you want for yourself. Makes 00:16:57.110 --> 00:16:59.509 all the sense in the world. But I get what you're 00:16:59.509 --> 00:17:03.220 saying. For myself, how am I going to sit here 00:17:03.220 --> 00:17:05.500 and listen to you when you haven't done what 00:17:05.500 --> 00:17:08.539 I'm doing? You know, you get a couple of steps 00:17:08.539 --> 00:17:13.799 before, you know, and you know, yes, people haven't 00:17:13.799 --> 00:17:16.619 done the work. Yeah, because they're at this 00:17:16.619 --> 00:17:18.779 step that I'm trying to get to. But you don't 00:17:18.779 --> 00:17:24.000 have a story so much like yourself. Life is a 00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:27.039 story. And if you don't sit with it, you said 00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:29.920 there was a moment where you sat and you felt 00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:32.799 the songs and you felt the movies and you put 00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:37.059 yourself in there. If that moment hasn't arrived 00:17:37.059 --> 00:17:40.039 in some people's lives and they want to give 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:44.480 back, I don't know if that would be effective 00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:47.559 for what you're doing right now. Because if we 00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:50.700 go with the mind and not the heart, the mind 00:17:50.700 --> 00:17:53.500 is telling us, hey, let's do this, let's do that. 00:17:54.059 --> 00:17:59.779 saw you for something you are the yeah the angels 00:17:59.779 --> 00:18:03.660 speaking to you right now thank you interesting 00:18:03.660 --> 00:18:07.759 enough is is when you I wonder, do people understand, 00:18:08.059 --> 00:18:11.619 even in podcasts, there is still a transfer of 00:18:11.619 --> 00:18:14.460 energy. There is a look on our face. There is 00:18:14.460 --> 00:18:18.180 an engagement in our body. And that still happens. 00:18:18.420 --> 00:18:21.039 And so for those that aren't actually watching 00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:23.779 this, there is a transfer of energy. There's 00:18:23.779 --> 00:18:26.839 an energy that speaks joy, that speaks happiness, 00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:32.140 that speaks understanding. And with what you're 00:18:32.140 --> 00:18:35.410 doing now, I'm sure. That's how you're carrying 00:18:35.410 --> 00:18:38.950 this business on. So how has it been and how 00:18:38.950 --> 00:18:42.210 long have you been doing this? OK, so booted 00:18:42.210 --> 00:18:46.410 out last year. So I took at least a good few 00:18:46.410 --> 00:18:48.430 months to think about where I'm going to live 00:18:48.430 --> 00:18:51.890 next to keep my overhead slow because I don't 00:18:51.890 --> 00:18:56.420 want to go to corporate. So I took my trip. uh 00:18:56.420 --> 00:19:00.160 last year i went to the states and simply because 00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:03.220 most of my guests are from the states and um 00:19:03.220 --> 00:19:07.420 and i actually met up with them and because i 00:19:07.420 --> 00:19:10.440 know this is not it's it's a we're in it for 00:19:10.440 --> 00:19:15.059 the long run right relationship building um relationship 00:19:15.059 --> 00:19:22.579 and so august 2024 i registered it in my home 00:19:22.579 --> 00:19:27.650 base which is malaysia And 2025, February, I 00:19:27.650 --> 00:19:30.809 came out to the world that says, hey, I've transitioned. 00:19:31.589 --> 00:19:36.630 And, okay, of course, prior to that, I had been 00:19:36.630 --> 00:19:40.509 coaching some people for free because they all 00:19:40.509 --> 00:19:45.170 come to me for advice. And I just want to help 00:19:45.170 --> 00:19:47.809 people, but it can be very draining, Javanka. 00:19:48.009 --> 00:19:52.009 So I have to learn how to draw the line, the 00:19:52.009 --> 00:19:57.869 energetic boundaries. And then in 2025, I broadcasted 00:19:57.869 --> 00:19:59.650 to the world that, hey, I've transitioned. So 00:19:59.650 --> 00:20:05.630 the responses were half and half. Some were like, 00:20:05.670 --> 00:20:08.690 oh, my God, Nick, you are, I'm so proud of you. 00:20:08.750 --> 00:20:11.029 You're finally following what you feel right 00:20:11.029 --> 00:20:15.049 in your soul. But some were like, hmm. But we 00:20:15.049 --> 00:20:18.490 know they're watching. When we put the content 00:20:18.490 --> 00:20:20.130 out there, we know they're watching, even though 00:20:20.130 --> 00:20:22.549 they're no likes. So I kept on putting my stuff 00:20:22.549 --> 00:20:28.029 out there. Some people came to me and very, very, 00:20:28.049 --> 00:20:32.309 I guess a prominent example would be a lady. 00:20:32.609 --> 00:20:37.509 She found me on Google and she just said, I needed 00:20:37.509 --> 00:20:40.190 somebody to help me with my spiritual integration. 00:20:40.970 --> 00:20:45.569 I said, okay. I think because I also do, I'm 00:20:45.569 --> 00:20:48.430 very intuitive. Now I'm leaning into what I've 00:20:48.430 --> 00:20:51.769 always been good at, but I kind of put that aside. 00:20:52.829 --> 00:20:56.230 And she was like, the way she was saying those 00:20:56.230 --> 00:20:59.130 things, we were like connecting just like virtually 00:20:59.130 --> 00:21:02.650 like this. And she said, girl, I think you're 00:21:02.650 --> 00:21:04.549 the one that I need to work with. So I said, 00:21:04.609 --> 00:21:08.009 okay, you know what? Well, let's do this. So 00:21:08.009 --> 00:21:11.829 ever since then, I've had some clients in person. 00:21:12.509 --> 00:21:15.309 And right now, Javonica, I'm still building. 00:21:16.049 --> 00:21:21.210 But I believe, again, it had to go back to my 00:21:21.210 --> 00:21:23.660 self -worth. Because when you are an entrepreneur 00:21:23.660 --> 00:21:27.480 online, when you're a life coach or you're doing 00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:31.240 programs, when you're especially pricing, you 00:21:31.240 --> 00:21:34.220 need to know your worth and you need to believe 00:21:34.220 --> 00:21:38.619 your worth. So I had the biggest work was on 00:21:38.619 --> 00:21:44.119 that. And some people, the right people will 00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:48.440 be repelled. They will repel because they're 00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:51.740 not ready for you just yet. But the right ones 00:21:51.740 --> 00:21:55.019 will say, you're the right person that I'm looking 00:21:55.019 --> 00:22:00.940 for. Here, take my money. So I believe in that. 00:22:01.059 --> 00:22:08.559 And right now, some of my clients are short -term 00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:11.900 basis. So the long -term ones, I'm still looking 00:22:11.900 --> 00:22:14.700 for them. But I know they're out there. Because 00:22:14.700 --> 00:22:17.819 it's just been, let me see, February, July, five 00:22:17.819 --> 00:22:22.039 months in? Yes. But I believe in myself and I 00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:25.000 believe in the mission. Absolutely. Absolutely. 00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:28.160 And I'm super proud of you. And it's funny how 00:22:28.160 --> 00:22:30.539 you say it was half and half. Some people say 00:22:30.539 --> 00:22:34.119 they're proud of you. The other people are still 00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:39.079 in question. Yes. And interesting enough, I'm 00:22:39.079 --> 00:22:41.859 going to say this because I feel it. those are 00:22:41.859 --> 00:22:44.319 the people that are scared to jump. Exactly. 00:22:45.019 --> 00:22:49.079 You said it. Yes, yes, yes. You're thinking it. 00:22:49.220 --> 00:22:55.880 I was just watching the movie. I swear, I was 00:22:55.880 --> 00:23:00.539 just watching it. I had to do it. You see the 00:23:00.539 --> 00:23:06.259 residents? And those are the people that are 00:23:06.259 --> 00:23:10.019 that. Fear. And I just said this in another one 00:23:10.019 --> 00:23:14.299 of my podcasts. When when people talk about jumping, 00:23:14.420 --> 00:23:17.220 they think automatically they're going to fall. 00:23:17.380 --> 00:23:20.720 But what if you jump and fly? You know, and sometimes 00:23:20.720 --> 00:23:24.519 it's not not not. Of course, it's in the thought. 00:23:24.619 --> 00:23:26.960 It's in metaphorically kind of thinking it's 00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:29.740 sometimes somebody needs to push you. And that's 00:23:29.740 --> 00:23:33.269 the universe kicking you out of an area. to where 00:23:33.269 --> 00:23:36.069 you thought you were super comfortable, but it's 00:23:36.069 --> 00:23:41.150 not where you thrive at. So in all, I want to, 00:23:41.150 --> 00:23:42.829 I'm going to ask, and even though, you know, 00:23:42.869 --> 00:23:44.630 we're near the end, but it's really important 00:23:44.630 --> 00:23:48.269 to understand that Vision Pros Live talks about 00:23:48.269 --> 00:23:50.390 visions and things like that. But we also have 00:23:50.390 --> 00:23:53.289 to inform everyone that entrepreneurship and 00:23:53.289 --> 00:23:57.710 business, nothing happens overnight. In this 00:23:57.710 --> 00:24:00.950 moment and time in your life, in the five months. 00:24:01.559 --> 00:24:04.319 that you've created this business of helping 00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:11.339 people tell me about your vision well words are 00:24:11.339 --> 00:24:14.339 spells right so i'm putting this out in the universe 00:24:14.339 --> 00:24:19.000 my vision is to create my first ever retreat 00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:25.160 next year 2026 between now to then i'll be holding 00:24:25.160 --> 00:24:29.970 some master classes cohorts where i will be teaching 00:24:29.970 --> 00:24:35.490 about expansive how to expand worthiness expansion 00:24:35.490 --> 00:24:39.849 so it's going to be in under the umbrella worthiness 00:24:39.849 --> 00:24:42.529 being authentic and being abundant what does 00:24:42.529 --> 00:24:45.049 it mean to each one of you because everybody 00:24:45.049 --> 00:24:49.970 has a different definition um to that so that's 00:24:49.970 --> 00:24:53.849 the vision and you guys heard it as well as i 00:24:53.849 --> 00:25:00.089 did in 2026 her first retreat regarding worthiness, 00:25:00.369 --> 00:25:04.329 authenticity, the abundance of life. I'm for 00:25:04.329 --> 00:25:08.369 it. I'm totally for it. With all of that, it's 00:25:08.369 --> 00:25:12.690 amazing. And again, I've said it probably twice 00:25:12.690 --> 00:25:15.710 already. I'm super proud of you for taking that 00:25:15.710 --> 00:25:19.529 leap, regardless if it was one that you wanted 00:25:19.529 --> 00:25:22.349 to do or one that you were pushed to do. How 00:25:22.349 --> 00:25:25.589 can people learn more about you? So your website 00:25:25.589 --> 00:25:28.789 and your social media handles, please. Oh, thank 00:25:28.789 --> 00:25:32.670 you. I love this part. Okay, so I've been pushing 00:25:32.670 --> 00:25:36.670 out my content on my Real Summit podcast for 00:25:36.670 --> 00:25:38.890 the longest time, but right now I've started, 00:25:39.029 --> 00:25:42.170 push it again, breaking that barrier, creating 00:25:42.170 --> 00:25:45.309 Talking Heads content. So I'm available on all 00:25:45.309 --> 00:25:49.750 platforms, at least not Snapchat, though.
