Hey guys, Colleen Gallagher here with the Colleen Gallagher podcast, I'm super excited to be bringing you episode 69.

So with that we're gonna get into today's episode. So for those who who know, I'm all about love, I believe what love is one of the most powerful forces on the planet. But I believe what is actually more powerful than
love is fear. I never really thought of this, I used to say love is the most powerful force in planet but when you think about it, fears, what inspires people into action fears, what inspires people to begin a different life to navigate a different life to to to move into a change behaviour into a
change habit. And so, what I really wanted to share here, what I really wanted to dive into in this is that my first book is called The intoxicating movement, or it's called Live Your Truth, but it's about the intoxicating movement where we learn to intoxicate the world with love, I really make this world a perfect alchemy of what
it needs to be. So when I say the intoxicating movement, what I mean is an intoxicating is basically someone who's looked within to take the time to remove the toxic and become what's left. So that's why it's like in talks as you're looking in to look at the toxic to then remove it to become what's left your truth, which is then the tour which is making this more of like an activator, like you're claiming this part of your identity of the truth of
who you always were. And so what I'm so excited and what I'm so pumped to bring to you guys and I never really done this before is I finally have an intoxicate the world with love sticker and the sticker goes with your laptop, it goes on your person can go on your coffee mugs but like this perfect little sticker that literally is like the logo that I've had, which is heart was a heart and it's birds that are like made up in the heart.
And the reason I had this it was an incredible designer that I had draft this draw this the reason that I had this done was because I feel like often we feel like that we are not free or we want to be free or want to feel like we have more freedom of expression more freedom of whatever truth more freedom of money more freedom of to do what we want their time like we have all these things about freedom could mean to us and I really felt like a bird represents the perfect freedom because a bird
can be sitting somewhere and literally like in an enclosed area I'm fly up above that area and just leave. And I really loved kind of watching birds and like trip around or I'd like watch them leave areas or like they flock in certain areas based on the time of the year. And it kind of reminded me of like how often we actually can move ourselves and we can we maybe can't move ourselves out
of our environment. We can't move ourselves out of like the household we're in or out of the job we're in like, we can't just do it in a moment. There needs to be a strategy. But what I wanted to say is that when you can start to think of your heart when you start to think of loved ones or to think of your mindset like love like that you are the one that holds the key
to fly away. Like you're You can always fly away, you can always fly into a new reality, you can always go wherever you want within your mind in your mind's eye, you can always do that. And the sticker of intoxicate the world was love. And this logo of this beautiful heart I'm looking at, it's like this beautiful heart with the birds that like it starts at the bottom, you know, and then like the birds are flying away at the top of
the heart. Like, what it really represents, to me is that, like, we always have the opportunity to expand our life to uplift our life to really, like, empower ourselves. And it's funny because like, I'm kind of why I'm in my car right now and usually did my podcast with my microphone because I want it to be professional. And my sticker just got here yesterday. And it's funny because this is like my seventh or eighth products
that I now have. And it's like my favourite product it just so simple, but it's like it represents such a conversation starter it represents like, why would you say intoxicate the work of love? Like, what does that mean? And it really like reminds me of why I started this journey of love of believing in myself. And one day I wanted more than anything in the world
was just to fall in love. I remember there's this guy Dave, after college, really loved the guy was madly in love with him, like, madly, madly in love with this guy. Incredible. Like, we just experienced the most amazing things together, we just I don't know, we just did this life together. But he really introduced me to some things in the world that I never really thought of that I never knew existed, that he helped me find parts of myself that I didn't
know. And I remember like, we would go to these like electronic festivals and we would just be like up late talking. And what this brought into me is that like how much we can just fly away into freedom, like freedom is already ours, like freedom is already here.
Like we can't there's nothing to do to become free and if you keep living your life day in and day out as I often did of like going to the same job writing the same blogs or reaching out to the same clients like if you kind of keep doing that habit of like you keep perpetuating that right there's gonna be a time when it just nothing changes and you're like, I feel like I'm doing all these things I'm doing so much but nothing in my life
is changing. And when I really started to date this guy and I really started to understand fundamentally love that this frequency of love when you're truly in this like divine experience in relationship with love. Like the world just becomes better becomes brighter, it becomes more expansive, like I don't know like this feeling of love where you get intoxicated, really by this overwhelming sensation. And we all desire that freedom of love
that freedom of expression. But if we don't change our habits, right, we don't have like, tokens around us like a sticker to look at everyday that our subconscious mind is constantly looking at if we don't have like, the goal of we want a million dollars or the goal of we want you know this to be our money result this month and we don't have those goals in place that we're constantly looking
at. We're constantly seeing we don't create these new habits these new thought reflective forms of what if I could do this? What if I could do that? Like all these other things? Basically, what if I don't? Like what what if I could What if this could happen? What if I could fall in love? What if I could live a freedom lifestyle? What if I could have more than enough money? What if money wasn't an object of thought, but it was just something that I
knew was always there? Like if you had these thoughts that were constantly returning to instead of like shit, how am I going to pay the bills? How am I going to do this shit, I can't do this I don't have money and I've been there like I've been in that place where I've been like shit, I don't have money to do this.
And it's not a fun feeling. But when I started to understand the thing of intoxicating the world with love to align to love to align to relationships, when I began to understand this my life really began to shift because I began to take greater risk I'm believing in myself and having faith in who I am I began to believe I think the whole meaning of this episode of I just really pulled my car over cuz I have to go into an appointment but I wanted to like share this episode because when
you think of like love so often someone's had like every love relationship there's an element of toxicity. But I think the the core the commitment to our life, the journey is that the more that we look within to remove our toxic the more that we stop looking at the external world and saying like, everyone's so selfish or people look transactionally or people are doing whatever like every time people say that kind of thing. This is what people are looking at. It's their shadow. It's their, their
project. You're projecting what's really inside of you awesome. To the world, think of it like a root like a tree like a flower. Under the soil, there's like all these roots. And there's these things that have grown and they're growing, there's just a whole interconnected web. But it's easy to pretend that that flower is placed in conveniently. But it's like do you know the roots, the shadows, the background of everything that's led that
flower be there and grow. And it's like, you can blame the external world for all these things that are happening around you, or all these things are going on. But like, you're the flower, you're the root, like, all these things are just literally things that are happening inside of you. But it's under the dirt, it's under,
like you can't see it. And then it's manifesting in ways of like, traffic, or it's manifesting with oh my god, there's a bird that just flew in front of me when I said this holy shit, as I'm literally talking about this, there was a bird and it's like, literally my logos, you'll see the photo of it, and you can pick it, but that was crazy. It flew right in front of my car, it was a
blackbird. Wow. But what I wanted to say back to what I was saying is that everything that manifests outside of you everything you feel frustrated with in the world, it really is just a reflection of what it's
asking to be healed within. And the more that you can become okay with that, the more that you can dance with that, the more that you can expand that the external world is just what's in the, in your roots, like it's about your the flower and like what's under the soil and everything you hate about the external world. It's like, what you're hiding from in the
soil. It's like what you can't see in your own soil, but it's coming out and you're thinking it's the world but it's literally just a reflection of you. There's people like, you know, I've had this and I just went for a four day thing in my PhD or a four day like weekend,
my Ph. D. programme. And one of the quantitative professors, which is more like strictly numbers, was saying something along the lines of like, there's these variables that you get on that luck, space, not luck says that manifestations based, like that space where things just flow, that things are things are synchronous, synchronistic things are just happening. And as you do that, right, they're just inflow, and they're synchronistic. And things are happening. As that's happening
in your life, right? It's because you've began to look at this toxic traits, these things under the roots that were attracting negative things because you began to look within and that's why intoxicate the word love is so beautiful, because you're looking within for the toxic you're looking within to remove the toxic like, instead of looking for the world term of the toxic, the world will not remove the toxic until you remove yours. You go first and the universe follows you
lead yourself. Like I've led myself into my PhD, I've led myself into my business my writings, like even when I got no one was listening, even when I had no followers, even when my podcasts had no really downloads or anything. I still showed up every week, I remember, like, so excited for five downloads, like I would just be so pumped. And now we were, you know, more in like the 100 100 downloads range
per episode. But that's still so exciting that they when I get 1000s, and then when I get millions preppers like, I'm still gonna remember this moment of like, Wow, I'm so grateful that I got 100. Like, I'm so grateful I got whatever that I was like, I'm still gonna be grateful for that. But it's because I looked within remove the toxic that I was like, You know what I need to speak about what I want to speak about, because it's on my heart and mind. And I just trust that it's
my purpose. And people will show up and listen, and it's gonna show up and build a community. And I kind of just did this and that was me, intoxicating the world with love. And then before you know it, when I got my 3000 downloads, I had like a virtual Happy Hour people left review. And so once people have to review, like I was like, Oh, my God, like this has really
changed people's lives. And then I had the idea that, you know, once I get more downloads, I could have like, yearly parties of the Colleen Gallagher podcast or whatever that it is. And I started really doing this, I started really thinking this and I just started to see that I can intoxicate the world with love, I can look within from the toxic and I can become the love my own love story. The love that I always dreamed of the love that
I always want. And I feel like I'm kind of going all over the place. It's kind of like ADHD is kicking in. But I really just felt called to do that in this car because the stickers that came yesterday have intoxicate the world with love and that Blackbird that literally just physically came when I'm recording this podcast. It just shows like The symbolism of everything's on the right track. It just shows the symbolism of that everything's working out.
It just knows that if you're here like if you're listening to this, I want you to know like money is safe. Money is going to come and you don't have to do it all by yourself. money is safe, and you don't have to do it all by yourself. money really is safe and you don't have to do it all by yourself.
And when you begin to have believe that money is safe money will always show up for you, there's more than enough money for you to live the freedom lifestyle for you to travel the world, for you to leave your job, like in a strategic way, like when you began to just believe that money is safe, and money will always be there. And that your dreams and that living the life of love and purpose is what's meant to happen for you.
When you begin to do this, I promise you, the world just shifts it has to it does, I'm seeing it my own life. And you know, I've made a lot of financial decisions. You know, mistakes, I should say my three and a half years in business, I wasn't a finance person, I was more creative and marketing
person. And I was from the mindset there's more than enough, but there was times when I literally didn't have money in my account, like I literally would be like negative would be negative in my accounts like negative overdraft negative overdraft and I just keep charging it like literally, like why have it's always gonna keep charging to the bank literally declines it. But everything I would buy was like for food or was like for my purpose or was
like for my business. Like, it was just funny because it's like, literally I didn't see money, like I had to have money to do something, I always have this like, assumption basically that if it's for purpose, the money will always be there. And like literally, if it was like ordering things on negative money, I would still do it because like it's part of my story. And I know the money will come back and I know this is what I meant to do.
Yeah. I just feel like what I wanted to share them and talk to them about love means that you're more committed to your vision of love, you're more committed to your frequency, you're more committed to your truth, you're more committed to you're more committed to the freedom no matter what, and the money becomes a second thought because you have to choose the
freedom. It's almost like think about it, if you were like going to I don't know, like a political event or like a, I don't know, like something like you have to choose the wedding dress, right give the choose the wedding dress, you have to choose the mentor, you have to choose the different life like you have to choose to make the investment in your education
like you have to choose it. And until you choose it if didn't choose to have the money when you don't have the money because otherwise you're never gonna create the money it's always gonna be in a loop so anyway, that's what I wanted to share.
