Episode 92 The Art and Science Behind Manifestation Part 2 of 3 Series with Mo Naboulsi The NeuroScience & Energy Work Behind Manifestation

manifestation. This is part two, which is going to be focused on the neuroscience, the mindset and the energy work the spirituality of manifestation. So really bridging like, what is the neuroscience? What do we know in the science or what is actually the art of it. And I'm super excited about this because if you guys know, I'm launching my eight week how to become a powerful manifester course right now, and you get access immediately when you enroll. But

we are starting on Friday. So Friday is the day that there's the first live one, it's eight recorded modules I've done an my model manifestation is an eight sequence. It's an eight sequence model. And then what you do from that model is I'm going to add more to it from the first time that I ran out, which was back in 2019. And I've definitely learned so much about manifestation back since 2019, and embodying it being at creating it. So I'm super, super

excited for this course. And it's going to be incredible, so make sure to enroll. And before we get into this episode, I just want to take a moment and welcome you all to our weekly show the Colleen Gallagher podcast if you're returning Oh Hey, and if you're a brand new

And with that, I super hope you enjoy this part two of three, and are the in our collaboration series with more on the art and science of manifestation really tuned into the neuroscience and the energy work of it. I love you and I'll talk to you soon. Hey guys, it's Colleen Gallagher.

And Moe we are super super excited because this is the second episode in our three part series of the art and manifestation are the art and science of manifestation. And this part part two is going to be all about the neuro science mindset versus the spiritual work energy work with manifestation like really what is that last week we went into they are episode one or part one of this, we went into the hand of the masculine and feminine of manifestation how the two really

moved together. And now we really want to go more into the science and the spiritual because it's really important to understand because there's two ways to do it. So yeah, I'm super excited. And I don't know most of you want to open up about your first thoughts of the science and spiritualist behind manifestation or the woowoo. And the more grounded or what your thoughts are really can go into it. Yeah, I do love the the neuroscience for really just stimulating your brain for

mindset and manifestation. I mean, I love it all. But so Andrew Huberman talks a lot about trying to understand what interview rooms is one of them, but he's kind of like my favorite newest neuroscientist, and he talks a lot about how, how what you think and what you say, actually has a actually has an effect to how you feel and how you interact and how you go about your day. The understanding of neuroplasticity, to be able to learn and absorb information and

whatnot and so forth. And I think that all has app, it all has some sort of application to your day to day but I just want to simplify it for the people listening and just kind of go like a step by step type of list of importance. First and foremost. I think a lot of people overlook the fact that that rest recuperation and and pure like play and by play I mean like things You enjoy to do that have no, they have absolutely zero effect to like

your work. So something that you enjoy, maybe it's, you know, playing an instrument, maybe it's playing soccer, basketball, drawing puzzles, you know, board games with your family, go into the gun range, whatever it is like to have some form of true enjoyment of, of being able to play and just have that time for you dedicated, every single week, I think is huge, the other, the other portion is rest

to rest. And a lot of times we live in a world where we are constantly doing things like I just explained to you that I've been on calls since 430. This morning. And yes, it I'm not physically doing anything that's labor. So I'm not, I'm not lifting things, you know, day in and day out hour after hour, but your your, your brain gets

exhausted. And there's too much stimulation is too much simulation, from light to stimulation from screens and, and like I'm losing my voice like you can hear me clearing my throat. So there's, you have to be able to find a way to understand that you your body,

your brain does need rest. And that's that's a huge proponent, the other proponent, we're gonna go into your things, but the other proponent that I really love, that is backed by science, and as well as the will, is designs of, or the art of gratitude, and how how important gratitude is to your pursuit of achieving goals and being able to increase serotonin levels, so that you can get in that state of mind, feeling happy, and whatnot, which also coincides

with like meditation. And I think a lot of people overanalyze meditation, I think people think that meditation is some, like, you have to go through some, you know, some, some long journey with a guru, and, you know, you have to learn these things and whatnot. But you don't, it's, I mean, it's as simple as just being able to turn off your brain. And, and just, you know, focusing on one thing, and I like to focus on my breath. And, and it's, it's a daily practice, it's something

you have to do every day. And by have I mean having in the sense that if you want to progress, and you want to become better, and you want to become more connected to yourself, and to everything that's around you, then, you know, with a with, with anything that you have to do in life, you have to

practice it. And I think that's, that's, you know, huge and that also leads to understanding what gratitude is, because it's proven that gratitude makes you happier, like on a scientific level, that it makes you

happier. And it allows you to create a success mindset, because when you're in the state of gratitude, you're in the state of, of wanting, like, when I'm in gratitude, I want to give, I want to give and I want to, I want to share it, I want to share experiences, I wanna share thoughts, I want to have, you know, amazing conversations, and I want to be able to connect

with people. And when you're not in the state of gratitude, you're thinking, you know, negative thoughts and, and, you know, you might be like in a victim mentality, oh, woe is me, you might be bitter resentment, and that, that falls off of you that lets like, that's energy just kind of, like spewing off

of you. And, and, you know, if you have a family, it can, it can omit to a lot of the things that you're doing on a day to day basis, and it gets spread like a virus and like your children might see it and your, your significant other might see it and feel it. And even though you're not trying to do anything, that, you know, it's it's very, it's very real. And that's not something that you want to have happen and to carry

through your environment. So excuse me, so I think that's, that's, that's very important for me. Because you have to be deliberate and, and understanding that gratitude is a powerful tactic and to be in a state of gratitude takes practice. And I think we touched on this our last episode, but, you know, it's difficult to be in gratitude when you're trying to create something that may seem like pure fallacy, and it's

not real. So I try to put myself in a position I actually just had a conversation with a friend of mine and, and he was talking about how he was able to manifest his life in literally under four years, he went from

being on the couch. You know, being a drunk and having issues with alcoholism, a broken family, essentially, like he just everything was miserable to thriving successfully building a 30 $40 million dollar company, and having the most amazing relationship with his children, his with his wife, and he's like, you know, all I did was, every day I would practice I would practice being in the state of gratitude, and I write down, you know, the things that I want, but I would write them

down, like I've already achieved them, and I would have to trick my brain and so and eventually it became part of my belief system. And that it was real, it was no longer like, the thing that could happen. It became the

reality. So now my reality now Like, now I have to now I'm starting to write things that are, you know, having bigger visions and bigger goals and things that I'm having to write down, you know, from manifesting to be an author and public speaker this that the other better husband better father, and the way that he did, it was interesting calling and he would write, like, you know, I'm going to be on stage speaking with, like, the best speakers, and entrepreneurs in the world,

like, and it was, it was vague, but it was specific at the same time. And, and he would write it like it had already happened. Not like how I just said it, and I completely confused the fuck out of people. But he would write it as though it already took place. And I think that was I thought that was fascinating. Anyways, that's enough about me

talking, we can go No. More further, later on, you know, one of my biggest practices, and it's funny, we're relaunching my eight week how to become a powerful metaphor faster course right now. And we the second time I've run it live, it was a recorded course I did back in 2019. I went live, and then I've sold that self study. And so I'm really excited. But one thing that you said, that's super powerful, and I even have my notebook here, I always have different journals.

But a big practice of mine is journaling, right? Almost every single day. I mean, not almost every single day I journal Right? And, yeah, you you want to journal about your life, from the present tense, like it's already done. I'm saying like, I'm, like, instead of saying, I'm wanting to be a millionaire, I'm so excited, like I am. I am now so grateful. I am a millionaire. Like I, you feel it, you're stating it in the present, like you said, like

it's already done. You're not like putting it out there in the future. Because if you're talking in the future, your subconscious mind is always gonna put it out there, it's always gonna go into the future.

So you want to Yeah, a huge part of the science and neurologically like your body has a chemical reaction when you're saying like, this is now like, example, if you were if I was to, like, really think of like, the right now, I was think of a big betrayal that happened or whatever, like, I would have a chemical response, like I would either become angry or become sad, or I would like, you know, whatever. Like example, like there was like, like Valentine's Day today, right?

There's like someone as a guy, I hope they text me and they didn't text me. And I was like, I'm so sad, right? Like, this is like something that happened, right like this. And I was like, But why think that way? Like, I need to think like, obviously, God's having to happen for this, like having it happen for a reason. It's the highest good of all. And obviously, like the highest my life was not for that person to text me like that the miracles and magic come in. And I switched that conversation

really, really quickly. But if you let yourself wallow in the present of what actually is, you will get sad or anxious or depressed or angry or whatever. And you can change your state at any moment. So yeah, you always want to be looking at okay. I mean, I guess I'm very future oriented. I always have been, but like, you always want to look at what do you want your future to be? And maybe people

don't think like that. I mean, I guess maybe more people should but like, what do you want your life to be like, like, I know, I could not wake up and be living the same life day in and day out. Like it would literally bore me, I just couldn't. And it's like a fear almost. And I feel like there has to be a way when you began to think like, I

want my life to be different. I always want it to grow and evolve, I want the adventure I want, there's something to be I don't know, I want there to be something greater, and you allow yourself to become open and available for ideas. And that has an neurological chemical response, if you said within your thoughts and then your body for you to react a certain way. And you can change that state. And that's just a practice. So that's definitely the science

behind it. And the neurological response behind it like getting your subconscious the present tense Writing, Speaking. Yeah, and it's always more powerful the right things and to type things because when you're writing it, there's more muscles that have to use it in your body. So the muscle memory is stronger, whereas in your typing, there's not as many and they always like the biggest.

One of the biggest things between a millionaire and a billionaire is a billionaire writes their goals and their types or goals, which I thought was funny. But um, I mean, I don't know if that's true or not. There's like stats, but I'm the energy behind it is like, that's where the imagination comes in. Like, right? That's where the future like, this is what I love to happen. This would be the most amazing out of the box out of the experience thing. Like I actually was at a

party. What was it a week ago now? Like, no two Fridays ago, so and when I was at that party, there was a guy, he's much older, he was in his 70s. He came up to me and he was like, he was like, intellectual, smart, beautiful. I was like, Yes, I was like, laughing. And he was like, So what do you want? And I was like, Oh, I told I was like telling him he's like

dream bigger. I was like, Well, I actually would love to be like an investor and like space ports like others airports, I want to be an investor in the space ports, like as we design it for when we go into space, like that would be one of my cool dreams.

He's like, think bigger, and I was like, oh my god, like literally I could like he tapped me out on where I was like thinking bigger and I was like, oh my god, I'm so happy I met you like he literally was expanding me and expanding, expanding me even what I've already feel like I went beyond and it was just so cool. And that's the magic. That's the spiritual side. That's the energetic side of manifestation.

It's like that's the side that's the intangible, and then you have to practically go like practice bringing that into reality. You can't just do it for a moment of like, oh my god, that magical and I want a six pack for a second and that would be so nice. If I have that and like you say it but then there's nothing that you continually do to get it. And I think people are like, Oh, but it's so much work right? So it's but it's like it's It's more work to not

do this. Like it's like more painful and more work in the long run to not do things like this. So, yeah, I think that's really my cents around I think both of them. But I, I think you said some powerful things. And I definitely like I know what you're saying with a guy. I mean, I haven't created a 30 or

$40 million company. But I mean, in four years, I've really changed my life in so many ways, like people to travel the world, my master's, my PhD, three book, three books, 25 online courses, a 70,000 person community podcast products, like, yeah, I blows my mind, to be honest, what's happened in four years like in that it all stemmed, it just all stemmed from a desire of wanting more. And when you do that, you naturally become open and available for different habits

and actions in your life. And then you do them and you see what works. And then it gives you a result, and then you just keep going. And I don't know, I It's so hard for me to try to even think of a life where you wouldn't want to do that, I guess, like, even traveling the world? Like why wouldn't you want to travel the world? I don't know. Like, why wouldn't you want to? It's just so hard

for me to even comprehend. The desire to stand still versus the desire for more, and I don't know, maybe that's, I some people might say it's greedy, or some people say whatever. But like, you're meant to live a life of mourning, you're meant to live a life of every desire and thing that you wish you had your life would be easier, like you're meant to make that happen. If you want a private chef, if you want to. Mate, if

you want someone to do it. Like if these are things that are annoyances, like you literally have these thoughts of what you want, because they're meant there, so you can get that. Yeah, I don't know, I think everyone has those thoughts, but maybe you just suppress them or aren't being honest about them being there.

Yeah, or they're just, you know, or they're just buried because of societal standards and, and what has been taught to us, you know, at an early age, like I mean, I always reference Robert Kiyosaki Rich Dad, Poor Dad, because it's a great, it's a great explanation, and an example of two different thought patterns. You've got his poor dad that, you know, didn't have this abundance, mindset, and abundance. Excuse me, abundance isn't. When we talk about abundance, it's not specifically

financial. But the thing is, is that the only thing in the world that in our society that moves, things is money. The monetary source of money is a tool, it's a tool in order for us to be able to leverage things, right. We can inspire people, we can employ people, we can help people, we can help ourselves, we can create opportunities. I mean, it's just a tool. And so when people think of oh, they're just money isn't the end all be

all. It's not, it's the purpose behind it, it's the value that that we're building outside of it, money is just a tool, just like your pencil is a tool or your pen is a tool, right? You can't write with just your fingers. I mean, you can but that would suck because you'd have to probably, you know, prick yourself to let out some blood every time you wanted to write something. So like, again, it has practical application. The funny thing is that you mentioned about writing things

down. I was always curious about this, because I would, I would, I was uh, I would write all my notes on my phone. And it wasn't until I spoke to pardon me, I forget who it was actually. But they told me that the difference between writing things down versus typing is that when you write things down, you're creating like over 10,000 neural pathways in your brain in like one sitting, whereas if you were to type it, it's only 600 neural

pathways. So it's significantly more impactful to be able to write things down because like you said, you're moving more muscles and, and what have you. So, you know, it's like, what 1516 times is as useful, or at least as useful in the sense that it is creating those neural pathways which, which opens you up to, you know, a myriad of opportunity. But going back to the thing you're talking about I think what most people don't have this growth mindset is again, it's it's the Rich Dad

Poor Dad mentality. It's, you have one perspective that's being you know, brought upon you throughout your life where it's the, the, you know, the standard, the standard that was instilled in us since the Industrial Revolution, where you're going to go to school, you're going to get a good education, you'll graduate, you'll go get a good job, you set up a good career, you work

at a great company. You retire from that company, you live off your retirement, you build a family, you buy a house, that's the American dream, excuse me. But but the American Dream is no longer the American dream. Because it's a it's a it's an outdated. It's an outdated form.

Yeah. And the funny thing is that people actually realize what was taking place at that time is that entrepreneur like we everybody was an entrepreneur at one there was no There was no employee, like, even if it was, everybody was a woman in the house it was it still, it's still a transferable skill. That mean, I just want to put that out there just because, anyway, yes, go on.

Yes, absolutely. And so, you know, that's, that's the reality and something along the way, somewhere it shift, it shifted. And we're still stuck in that mindset of, you know, this is the traditional route. And this

is just my belief system. And my own opinion, so you take this with a grain of salt, but unless you are, unless you are wanting to specify in something that that absolutely requires you to have a degree like in the medical field, you know, an attorney, a lawyer, you know, an architect, what have you where you absolutely have to have a degree, then then go for it, because those are their prereq prerequisites, there's no other option available to you in order to become the thing that you

want. But if, if you fall in line with anything else, like you need to look at other options, and you have to understand that there are, there are potentials now for you know, self education, online education, different strategies for you to implement, be able to learn, you know, I didn't know I, I didn't know I enjoyed learning until I was an adult. That's crazy. I didn't like school, I the only part of school that I enjoyed was the social aspect of things. Apart

from that, I wasn't a fan. There wasn't anything that really excited me. I thought I hated science, I grew up and I fell in love with science, because I wanted, I learned the things that I wanted to learn. You know? So it's just like, you can't you can't, you can't always assume that that just because you may not have a growth mindset, it's, it's, it's necessarily your fault. It's only your fault, if you don't do

anything about it. And if those aren't, and if you're not listen, if you're happy making 40 grand a year, and you are living a full and purposeful life, and and genuinely enjoying every single moment, then you're fucking winning. That's, that's my opinion. But, but if you're making, you know, 150k a year and you hate your job, and you're miserable, and you take it out on your family, and you can see the misery spewing from

you. Then there's you, you got to look at other options like money isn't the the the only common denominator look at when you're trying to make strategies and shifts in your life. But, you know, I mean, not unfortunately, fortunately, we live in a world where we can create something out of nothing. Yeah, I don't really know. And, and make a profit from it. Oh, oh, I was gonna say one thing you said that. We got, I got I got a little sidetracked. I just thought

I loved it. I wanted to go backward just a little bit when you were talking about like, yeah, like everyone was an entrepreneur. And one thing that came to my mind, or one thing I wanted to say is a great one thing that I think it's really important and like why I get so inspired by my journey is like, I genuinely do not enjoy cooking. And I know that sounds like so bizarre, right? Cuz like just gender norms and everything, right? Like, I know, my, my wife doesn't like it either.

I'm this Yeah, like, I genuinely do not enjoy it. Like, there, there are some things you like, enjoy, like, this is just not one of them coffee, I enjoy eating coffee, I enjoy making coffee, I enjoy finding whatever like that I enjoy. But, you know, I had it. Like when I was younger, right? Like I thought and a lot of ways. I mean, I knew I didn't want to get in a relationship young, I've shared that before. But I always have this fear. Like if I got in a relationship and like, am I

gonna have to? I'm so committed to my career, am I gonna have to like, cook and worry about this and that and like, it's just not a desire. So then I began to think, obviously, if this is such a dislike in my mind, what if there's a desire that's being birthed here? And the desire that I realized was like, what if I could hire a private chef?

Or what if I could do whatever and so what if I start rewriting my reality out of I am now so grateful I have a private chef, I'm now so grateful I have in home staff that someone can do this. I'm now so grateful. I have a nutritionist, like and I started to write those things out, right, like as it was

already done. And I've I've never hired that's like a private well, I have had private shops, I mean, but like full time like an in house, but I'm sure I will like once I have a family or do things like for sure that's a goal that I've aligned to and I'd love to have and I think why I want to share that is that the science and the art behind that or that sorry, the science in the spiritual Ness behind manifestation is like, I had this feeling inside of me that and your feelings are

spiritual. Because your feelings come from source your feelings come from an energy and energy cannot be created or destroyed. So it's coming from something that's existing and so the more that you acknowledge it, that's when the magic can be birthed.

And from the magic I then took it into the actual application of the writing of the things, but I think for a lot of us, we suppress those we feel bad if I would have walked around my whole life being like, I hate cooking, but I'm just gonna do it or this or that and I never would have seen like maybe there is a creative solution here. Maybe there is an idea where I can do something different like that would have heartburn with

me. The other thing that I like to use and I think it's super important to talk about is like, people who have moms or dads who have chosen to stay at home and

then like the at home route. I think there's so much shame and guilt around this as well when it's like your skills like I mean, I can tell you if I've seen a stay at home mom or dad, I mean, you guys are organized know everything to pull out of your pocket your your thing, you know what websites to go to, I mean, you are like super person on steroids, like you know, all these little things of how to do this, you absolutely can transfer that into a manifestation of money into

manifestation of love into manifestation of like support, like you, there's so many things that you can do, it's just a choice and decision that okay, instead of me just doing this, like here, I'm going to also do it in a way of money, I'm also going to do it in a way of earning. And I don't know, I just think like, there's just so much judgment sometimes that we place on ourselves, or we play some people around, I don't

know, like around this stuff. So I just, I wanted to say that if there's something you don't like right in your life, and there's something that bothers you, there's a reason that it's bothering you. And there's there's a spiritual solution or there's a there's an energetic solution that's being asked to come through you so that you don't have to do things you don't want to do. And that's really manifestation manifestation is getting yourself into a state where you're living in a life of joy.

And you start slowly like this, right? The things that I wanted that I wouldn't do now, like I wouldn't even dreamed of before. Like now it's so funny. Like, even when I lived in Cabo for like three weeks in November. It was funny, every single morning, I was at this resort every single morning, I called them I

got roomed ordered. What's it called latte vanilla almond milk, literally, the guy would drive the golf cart down, knock on my door, eventually, he would just open it because he knew I wasn't getting out of bed, delivered it right to my bed. It was funny, like the woman next to me, she's like, You are hilarious. She's like, but you've really dialed this in. And I was like, I would have never thought like that. You heard him saying that, like, I'm gonna go, that's too much or too

bougie or whatever. And like, now, just the desire I have. So I'd be mad about it. I like that I do that. Now, the next thing is like, I want to have my own cafe or my own machine in my home and like, learn how to do that. Like, I think that'd be epic. You know, so like, my desire, like before, I would have felt so guilty and shameful for something like that. But it's not. You don't need to feel like it is your desire. And it's there for a reason. And just trust it and make it happen and

write about it. Like I would have never written about a coffee machine in my home or like a top, you know, 1000 podcast to a top 500 podcast that I'm doing now. Like, I would have never had those thoughts, it would have never done those things. But as you do it, they come more and more and more. I think the first step is just the hardest to be honest

about yourself. And actually, I love that Kim Kardashian just said that in her third Vogue issue, like, be honest with yourself about what you want, and choosing yourself and then you can, you know, make it happen. I talked about that in my third book and uncompromised life, like really choosing you. And so that's like the art the art is the choosing you that the spiritual part is choosing the spiritual part is the connection, the spiritual part is like slowing down enough to

feel it all. And then from the feeling. doing the work like that. That's that is the art and the science of manifestation that is the neuroscience. Because once you feel it, and then neurologically, you begin to act from this place of feeling. Neurologically, you are having a different chemical reaction in your body. It's creating different habits in you and creating you to think different like today, when I literally had a thing I was going so sad, someone didn't text me for Happy Valentine's

Day. And then I was like, obviously, it's for the highest alignment. Obviously, it's for the highest wrote, like I trust it, and I believe it and just move forward with life. And it's showing me a sign. I'd rather get the sign earlier than much later. Like I change it doesn't mean I'm not sad, but I change the state and I don't well, like dwell there. Yeah, do you? Are you? Are you fan? Are you a fan? of

Valentine's Day? I feel like some reason I thought that you would be a person that would think that it's built on? No, I do. Like in a way I do. And I definitely think I've been in I think in the past I've been like very anti what's it called? Anti holidays, anti things like for sure. I think I've been that way. What shifted in me? I don't know. It's not even like you need to because like yeah, it's not like it's a big, I don't know, it's not like it's a big

thing. But I guess when you I guess when you care about someone, right? And there's like, you feel like there's whatever it doesn't have to be like, I mean, it's kind of a good morning text. I guess in the same way like you know what I'm saying? Like you don't have to like every morning or something. You're not like expecting someone to be like Good morning, but when you get like oh my god, yeah, like it never really loses the specialness of it's really

coming from the heart. And I think how I've transitioned in some ways of what I feel about holidays or celebrations it's more just a time to be extra present or extra whatever, but I don't think it's needed. I think everyone needs to figure it out on their own. But I definitely have been anti anti anti in the past. Like this is so dumb. And like why is this like I've been way anti and I've kind of balanced more now. But I'll always my favorite, my favorite

numbers 13. And so always my favorite day is the 13th of every month because 13 represents the goddess so yesterday was goddess day so it's all that is always my favorite day like the goddess day of love, but I don't know that so I yeah, I don't know. I think it's God goddess goddess. In what sense? And like, like mythology

for give? Yeah. So yeah, the number 13 Is it was coined I'm lucky because I was like representing like back in the which kind of the witch phase it was like representing the Goddess energy or the feminine energy and so why it's still quite unlucky is actually because because you go back to like what's trials and things they look and it was Jesus and the 12 disciples like 13, but we

don't say 13 We say 12? Like, I don't know, there's just like a lot of like numbers like that if you go through different, you go through different religions are just things there's actually 13 set of like 12 or whatever, but they they just don't coin it that way. So anyway. Yeah, that's something but I don't, I think you can manifest whatever you want. That's the that's even like, to your point, like, I think in the past, like your manifestations can change, desires can change, your

feelings can change. And then from that, you can create different realities.

I think is also interesting to point out that you really have to find clarity in your intentions, you know, when it comes to manifesting, because if I know, it's easier said than done, but if it's hard to bridge the gap between desire and outcome, and and so, you know, you have to look at it from the sense of, okay, well, one reason why we might struggle like, as people is, and this is for anything, is because we don't have, we don't have intention, nor do we have or not, that we

don't have intention, but we can't, we can't find clarity in the information, and then we get overwhelmed with the amount of information. And then that's where like paralysis by analysis comes into play. And this is applicable to anything, not just manifesting it just in everything, because what ends up happening is that you, you create this like roadblock in your head. And so for manifesting, if you're not really clear on, like, what are

my true intentions? Why am I trying to manifest like, what

what's the point? In essence, right, then, then, then there's really, that's where I've, and this is just for me speaking personally, that's where I felt like there was a big disconnect between the, what I'm trying to manifest feeling like a lie, and and then the reality that I was trying to create, and there was anything in between, like, that was able to connect, and so I was able to understand that okay, okay, so I need to find, what am I clear intentions behind? What what I'm trying to

manifest? What is this life that I'm trying to create? And and why is it so that's when I started writing things down. And, you know, and trying to look at my list regularly and find what was fulfilling and you know, what did what wasn't what I found fulfilling, and what I found wasn't fulfilling in my life, and then really starting to take an audit of myself on a day to day basis, and then understanding that value isn't always synched with logic, which is, I think, is might be a

little bit taboo for people. But that was just my own. Take, what are your thoughts? I like what you're saying in my first book, Love your truth, I

talk about that, right? You have to become open but you and my first program that goes with that book, which is called how to create your fairytale life, we focus on like, okay, clarity on your purpose, like, what is the one word with clarity on why you're here and like what that is, and it is important, because if you're not clear right on what you want, you're not clear on where you want to go and feels good. You're kind of like dabbling. I think all of us like

dabble. You know, I think like there's a point you're like, Okay, let me try this. Or let me try that or let me try this. If you're figuring it out. You're dabbling. But once you find the thing need to be focused, and even when you are dabbling, there still should be intention like I'm dabbling to get clear on what it is I actually enjoy. And I think from there you began to go all in like I think from there, you began to just take the action so yeah, I It's so

hard. I feel like that's one of my zone of genius is clarity like so I don't I don't have many times my life I don't really have a clear direction of where I'm going or what I doing and also because I'm so guided by a higher power than myself, I have such a trust if such a relationship I such a devotion, I even if it feels like I don't

know what's going on. I always trust that there's a higher purpose or reason so like exam, like I mean, it's so silly, but I keep bringing up because obviously, like, even this text message writer, this person, I really wanted this person to text me even if it's like a big thing, like they already told me they don't even really believe in it. Like we've already talked about it. You know what I'm

saying? Like, it's already wasn't talking to a topic and in my heart, I'm still like, Oh, nobody wants to text me and like, Oh, my God, like, this is the little like person in me, you know? And then I'm like, okay, but if it doesn't happen, right? There's obviously a greater reason there's obviously something that's more expensive.

That's what's to come and there's obviously whatever and then as soon as I did that, literally, I had what was it a 20 or 20,000 dollar payment come in over like a payment plan for like the next few months. I was like, oh my god, like as soon as I did that, I released it like this money came in. I'm not always saying that's the reality, right? But I'm just showing you the energetics of manifestation, right? Like, I wasn't even focusing on the

manifestation of money. I was focusing on manifestation of this response or this person to reach out to me. But as soon as I like, let it go, then something else came in. And it's like, that is manifestation actually, because my focus was wrong. I guess my clarity was, I don't know not what. Yeah, got it. I'm trying to like think how to put what I'm feeling into words like you. You have to not judge yourself for what you're feeling. But you have to still know what you want out of this

life. Right? Like, and I guess in my example is I didn't I was gonna go this way in this podcast, but like, in a way in this this conversation with this person that I'm like, Oh, my God, please text me this. Like, obviously, there's already things I probably know about the relationship that it's not going to work. Like, it's not going to be long term. Like I already probably know that. Obviously, I wouldn't be saying it. But there's something in me that

still wants it. And it's like, okay, so then this is obviously what's healthy. This is obviously the right thing, you know, maybe there still will be a surprise in the day, who knows, but I'm not going to focus on it. But if I took my whole day to be sad, upset, blah, blah, blah, and didn't show up to the podcast and didn't do my other podcast, didn't talk to my clients didn't do my writing didn't schedule the things for this week, didn't look at my PhD didn't do my journaling, like, this is all

done by 130. You know, and I got my coffee, and I did a 30 minute walk, like, you know, like, these are all things that all happened. And you're like, Well, how do all those things happen in such a short amount of time, but it's like, because time isn't real. And when you beginning to operate in, like, when you're beginning to operate in the manifestation, you get so much more done in a small amount of time. And that's the science

behind it. Because you're in a flow state, you're just going going going and you have to stop the treadmill, you have to stop the thing for it to happen, like and so what you're saying clarity, I mean, yeah, you want to know, like, I want a successful business, right? Like, I want to impact a lot of people. I know when people enroll, they're gonna have transformational experiences. I love my podcast. I love my coffee. I expect to have amazing

coffee every morning. Like, you know, I don't know, like, you have to have definitely clarity on what are the things that bring you joy? What are the things that bring you whatever, and then just surrender to whatever is being thrown at you, I guess, in a way like, I don't know. I don't know what else. So by surrender. So by surrender, what's being thrown at you? Are you does that mean? Does that mean? Let go the things that are out of your control. Hmm. What does that mean?

Yeah, I think Surrendering just means like whatever is whatever, once you make the decision, this is what like, I made a decision, I'm gonna have a successful business, right, multiple, six figures, multiple, seven figures hope to have multiple eight figures, you know, like, that would be awesome, you know? Um, and is that something that you practice every day? Or is that like, a one time thing? And no, I mean, I don't know if I say every day like, I don't know, if

I go every day. I'm like, Oh, my God, but it's a constant thought that comes back and forth. Like before, you know, oh, my god, 10 million would have felt so unreachable, right. Like, oh my god, that felt like so much. My I remember, I was dating a guy one time, he had a $10 million company. And I was like, I remember just being like, that's so much money. Like, you know, it's so it sounds like now it's much more of a natural conversation like 100 million a billion, like, I would love to

be a billionaire. I think it'd be awesome. Like, I think it'd be with all these products I'm doing I could see how it could work. But like, I you can hear the tone of my frequency. I haven't yet claimed that 100 million or billion like that feels to outreach, a bowl, like unattainable, but you know, 10 million of my life, that's definitely gonna happen, for sure. Like, you can feel that and I hope that I can keep aligning to more and more and

more. So it's not like, yeah, it's a constant state, right? Like today was not a day where I'm talking about money or in my journals, or my thoughts today's more like a day, like, I released love, or I release whatever because of this drama that I'm creating my mind about this thing or like I we have a new team member like there's different things, you know, but you when I first was starting my first year in business, I mean, yeah, probably it was every

single day, right? Like, I'm going to be a millionaire I'm a multi millionaire. I'm so excited to be a multi millionaire. I'm so now grateful. Like I literally probably brought that out every day like, you know, now it's so locked in that I don't really think about it, you know, but there's days when you're like going, it's all in a flow. That's the energetics part like that's that that's the art of manifestation like you don't have to sit there and have this practical logical linear way

from nine to 920. To do this, from this to this like it's more of like this is what's alive in the present inside of me today.

Let me do that. But everything that's alive is moving you in the direction of where you want to go like right like I've created my life, a lifestyle career, a lifestyle brand, where everything I do naturally is an extension of my business of me so everything I'm feeling everything I do, can't not grow my business like I've literally wired my brain in my life this way that everything I do is always growing my business. Everything I do is grow my brand. Everything is going to

impact people. Everything is going to community like I've grown it and I say those things. But I didn't just sit out one day, I guess in like, I got a mentorship I got in coaching. I got like guides like myself, like I've paid a lot of money and education to get these thoughts inside my head. And I showed up and did the saying, which is the neuroscience to now have this neurological pathway. That's a natural part of my being. But yeah, that wasn't always a natural part of my

being Definitely not. So I don't know if that answers your question, but I think it's like, it's I'm very intuitive. So it's like if today, like felt like it needed to be about money, then absolutely. I do. Like a couple days ago, it was really heavily on money. I was like really focusing on $10,000 and something like that. And it didn't happen. Like I was praying and doing whatever. And I did, I did all the things I felt like I did, and it didn't show up. And I was like, okay,

it wasn't meant to show up. And then what two days later and 20,000 Like you don't I'm saying so it's that day was really having that. So it took like a delayed two day time. But in the moment, I'm like, come on, I want this manifestation. Like I'm like, literally like what is happening, but two days really isn't that long. Yeah, I the only reason why I asked you mentioned is because you are very intuitive. And not

a lot of people are. One thing that really helped me was I always thought that perception became perception came before belief. wasn't, it wasn't until I learned that belief actually came before perception was when

things really changed for me. So like, you know, like the, what is it the reticular activating system, you know, like, when you first hear about a car, or let's say you're looking to buy a car, and it's like, you see that car, and then all of a sudden, that's the only car that you see, you start seeing it everywhere. You know what I'm saying? So it's like the part of the brain that that chooses what information

you notice. And so how our brains function is essentially, like, the thing that we focus on is the thing that we see more of, and that's why like, I'll give you another example, like you're in a room. And there's, let's say, You're not an event

or something. And if you're, if you're like constantly focused on like, everyone's an asshole, everyone's a liar, everyone's a critic, then you're creating the circumstances around that belief, and so, so, like, you're going to be hypersensitive to how you're going to communicate with people. And then the evidence that proves that belief to be correct, will therefore show itself, right. Whereas if you came from the mindset of like, everyone here is awesome.

I'm going to do deals, I'm going to network, I'm going to create 20 new relationships that are going to carry me to a $10 million year, well, then, now you created that belief system, right for that given mind, mind frame, and, and then then the perception comes into light where you're, you're on that pathway. So I think that is very huge. And it's such a simple

thing. To, to just kind of, like think about it's like okay, so in essence this has been scientifically proven you guys can Google this neuroscience. It's called the reticular activating system RAS for short, but essentially what ends up happening is that what you believe you perceive, so if you believe you're gonna have a shitty day, guess what you're gonna have a shitty day. That's where like the law of attraction before everything was backed up by science, that's where it all

came from. It's like well, what you attract you receive. So if you want to attract negativity, you're going to get negativity, if you attract positivity, you're gonna get positivity, that's the kind of thing and you know, eliminating negative thoughts also plays in that line. And so so now you have a viable way of explaining it

cool. Well, now I know that as long as I ask for the things that I want versus like I remember looking back calling that I would literally ask for the things that I didn't want because I was saying the shit out loud totally and and and that and then I got more and more of it. I'm like what the fuck is happening right? Yeah, I totally agree and there's so it was done. I never heard the word like what you said that perception believing I've never heard someone say that and I was just reflecting

but it is so true. My in my first book Love Your truth. I talked about this and the fourth part, which is love of the five step process. I should and um, yeah, like I mean, back to again like it's funny but I'm just saying like, I don't even know why but back to this text message today, right? Like I could have been like, oh, this that you know, whatever. And I didn't ignore those feelings I felt but I go okay, but is that fundamentally true? No, it's not

true. It's not whatever and they're still the rest of the day left if it's not going to happen it's because of you know, something greater is going to happen whatever and I like instantly did it but if I was to live my life and instead of always thinking worst case scenario, think best case scenario like example like I had, I've had very few like for how like four years in business I've only had two clients ever who have complained like did not like something like it was like

and they they was it they went to the bank to like refuted or whatever and one of them they never they never showed up to the one on one call. So obviously like, of course you may not feel like cuz they're not showing up to the call and I can't force someone to show up and the other one, he wasn't an engineer and he took one manifestation courses on social media and It just wasn't his vibe really, like we had calls. And he did. He wasn't implementing what I said, and it

was like literally working. But I think he wanted more like he's he was more masculine he wanted more like, this is the system this the process tell me what to do like to be fair. Um, so I got that but he refunded, or he asked for a refund on PayPal, and then PayPal, I won anyway. But those are the only two clients and for years that I've had that word like bad really, which is kind of shocking when you think of for years, especially in the online space.

This is not a brick and mortar store to have really just two that are like that I have hundreds of clients that have had this, that's a pretty good ratio. And I've had some like conversation with you were like, Hey, I thought this or this and I've always navigated it really

great. And everyone's like, wow, I really appreciate your leadership and whatever that is, but I really designed my business back to journaling when I was like, I have so many clients so my clients have to pay me people have to pay me in full people have to pay me in abundance. People have to overpay me. Like I literally write this into existence. So I don't really have a lot of client issues. And again, yeah, that was from me writing that. That was from me creating that

that was from me. Just believing I guess in a way like I don't know, so back to I wanted to choose the good so even like if something bad that seemingly bad happens, or it's like it doesn't go well instead of me going like oh my god let me freak out and do this or whatever. I'm like okay, well what's the best case scenario? And then I always think like, what's the good that's going to happen from this

you know what I'm saying? Like, even if it's something like that, I always think of the good and that's how it is if you think like oh, this is annoying or the the weight holder this is going to be annoying. You can't live your life like I don't know like or even I had someone comment on a picture lately like I have like I've like I really toned up especially cuz I have

60% of male clients. I really toned up my journaling around like this is about a year ago where I was like the men who comment on my photos are actually ideal clients are not just commenting on my looks or how hot I am or whatever that is like they actually are their clients engage with the content men actually read the read the things like whatever that is, as soon as I started to do that, everything shifted like yes, there's men that will make your beautiful your this but it's

such a different energy than it was before such a different energy than it was before. And even like the people that I get my Valentine's, like the men, the men who are just doing their clients, they're not I mean, so respectful, literally just so sweet, so respectful. And I really created that, right? Like instead of like being like, oh, and people around me, but oh my

god, but met online. And I'm like, I don't know, I have 60% male clients, I don't feel that at all like, and of course a man is going to look at my either my client and say that I'm beautiful. Like, that's just, like, let's just call the shots are where the shots are. Like, it's not that that's not a bad thing, you know? And I think, yeah. Yeah, it changed the narrative, right of what it would mean, I changed the narrative of how it was gonna run in my mind. So the impact

would be greater. And then that changed everything. I believe you're right. Yeah. Yeah. And then you created the environment, which then therefore created the culture. Yeah. So which isn't an easy, it's not an easy task, especially. Especially for like, real

masculine men. And when I mean, real, I mean, men that may have been set in their ways, maybe a little bit older, you know, they old school, mental, you know, ways of thinking where the man goes to work, the woman stays at home kind of thinking, You know what I'm so yeah, I don't have clients like that, necessarily. Because they wouldn't be attracted to me. But yes, I know what you're saying. Yeah, but I was getting at the same time. Go, you'll be

surprised. I mean, you would be surprised just how, you know what, when they are ready, or receptive? Just if you're, if you're receptive, and if you're willing to want to have a different perspective. You'd be surprised just how many people would actually want it. Yeah. And I think Do you like even if that was, because it's not got nothing to say? Like, even

if that was your reality? Like, let's say if there was like, even if that was your reality on things, like I have guy friends that are a lot older, updated, like, I mean, like, I mean, what I'm saying older, like 40s 50s 60s 70s, like, I and one of my mentors is at right, I have people I have I have I have men that are in my life. And yeah, it's it is very different, like the way they grew up or the way they think right but I you can say it like in a bad way.

Like you could say like, oh, whatever or you could just say like, this is how this is my standard of how I want to be treated, how to be taken seriously and how I want to do

business. And this is what I feel like men are going to do and then as soon as you make that decision, like as soon as you you claim what you want the universe responds to and that is again a neurological response because you change the belief on what you think people are gonna respond and since I think all men are like this or all women are like that's like we're talking about my cosmic lover

circle right now. Like how often do people like might not like this woman or like that's been wrapped up in like, but you are saying that so of course it's true to me. I have a very, very, very different reality. like very different, um, like, let me give you an example. I mean, this is I know we're gonna go here but like so I was out this is this event called uncork and there was a guy he was much young, I mean younger, I'm sayin a young 20s But very, like personality very young. But he

was so funny. I, you know, I give it to him. So he came up to me, he was like talking to me, and he's like, let me get your Instagram. And ironically, I saw I signed this guy up, I gave two books to this guy who works at a bar. And I went back and signed it because this guy like he really wanted to rise. So anyway, he followed this card, something like this. I was like, oh my god, this is so funny. Like, how, who would have thought or whatever. And I told

him the story. And so anyway, he was you know, a very immature I mean, immature for a guy, which the normal 20 to 21 year old guy would act this way. It's not that but what was so sweet. And this is like a reality as most guys, right? They text you after I left the event, and they texted me like, Hey, wanna hang out, or they do something dumb, like, in a way, this guy is so

sweet. Like, I thought he just goes at 3am He sends a message on Instagram, it goes up, and I my girlfriend's I was like, You know what, good job. You know, he didn't like cross a line. That was disrespectful. He did the best he could at 21 and 22. Like, yes, you know, and like, that's just an example of like, my reality like most guys, except when I hang out, or hey, when, like something just

generic, you know. And it was just a really good art manifestation of showing like, wow, you know, he's doing the best he can with what he has. And it was like a testament to what I've laid as a boundary that you can't even cry as a man, you wouldn't even cross into something more than that. Because the respect levels already too high from the way I carry myself. And that's a

manifestation. I mean, then this isn't even like a man woman thing I'm just sharing like, this is this is also the way of the spiritual side of it, and then also the science of it. But I've cultivated these thoughts in this way of being. And that's how it manifests in different ways. I think that's awesome. It just goes to show that you can create your own reality and your version of reality, because I mean, honestly, like, the thing that I had to come to terms with is what is reality anyway?

That's a whole different, yeah, predetermine. You know what I mean? I know, we're not getting into that. But, you know, like, I just knew that I just knew that I wanted to create the life that I want. And, and, and, you know, I want to set it up how I want it. And, you know, part of the part of that is through manifestation and, and being able to create the So,

why are you sharing? Well, yeah, there's so many I was like, but I, but I think maybe why the neuro, the neurological side that we talked about here, and the message of why better relationships, I mean, not just so I mean, ironically, it was just Valentine's Day, but why I brought that up is because relationships are key in your life. And your I mean, your relationships really does dictate your net worth in so many ways. So it's like, never, never discount what one person

could bring into your life. And so I think it's really powerful. And when you begin to operate in a way of how you want your relationships to be and what you expect from them, that naturally happens quicker, faster, more abundantly. So yeah, and I think, the next one on our third one, we can definitely open the conversation with what is reality? I think we can open with what we're talking about, because that is definitely something I think it's very

important to talk about. Though, it is, and I will preface it by saying that I am not like I just it's one of those things where if, if you say you know everything about this topic, I I generally I'm like, I don't know shit, like I just don't know, I don't know what I don't know.

But I can tell you based on what I've acquired in the last span of my life, and my version of it, and my opinions on it, and how it's been able to, and that's what I just want to tell everybody is that, like, this is our experience that we're sharing. This is our perception, this is our belief, this is things that we've been able to

learn, cultivate. And then And honestly, like put into practice, from a practical standpoint that we apply on a day to day life that actually has some wonderful wonderful what do you call it? I guess you can call it a commission in some sense, like, you know, we're able to, we're able to profit on so many different facets of of abundance that it just makes things it makes things amazing.

And if you can take one thing and you can apply it and it can truly change your life or it makes you want to learn a little bit more and you want to reach out to Colleen this is her field of expertise that is not mine.

Then you know that's something else like you're on you're well on your way Yeah, and I think if you're listening to this and you ended up like I said my eight week how to become a manifestor it's on my website Colleen gallagher.co to self study course or we're running it live starting the last week in February so if you listen to this whenever it goes live and you want to do and you can always join us but i This is the second time I've run it live in three years so it's definitely

like if you want to know I definitely recommend it. I don't know when I run a live again. But it's always powerful so but I'm super grateful for you Mo and I really enjoyed this and I'm excited to catch you guys on our part three. Sweet Thank you
