Hello, welcome back to another episode. Today's is a little bit different in that it is actually an episode taken from the pure potential podcast, where I was interviewed as a
guest. And after this conversation, I reached out to the podcast host Alex, and just said to her that was such an amazing conversation, there was so much juiciness so much gold, Alex has an amazing way of interviewing and asking really powerful questions, and I just had to bring it to you, because there's so much juiciness inside
of it. We spoke about some of the common mindset blocks, which always come up for women when starting something new in their life or trying to create a really big juicy goal or business. We spoke about how to get past limiting beliefs and an actual process that I use and teach clients. We spoke a lot about manifestation and what it is and what it isn't. Alex asked a lot about my journey in the year that I worked with Bob Proctor and some of the things
that I was able to manifest. We spoke about lots and it was just honestly another thing. Sorry, there was so much another thing that we spoke about was confidence and what that is and what that isn't, and how to actually improve your confidence, so that you can create all of the outcomes that you want. We spoke about designing a dream life and how you can actually go about starting if you're lost and you don't have direction, we spoke about what it means to be on purpose, and what it doesn't
mean to be on purpose. And just so much, so I had to get this to your airwaves. I'm going to share the link in the podcast notes to Alex's podcast. Like I said, it was a really great conversation, I had such a great time, and there was just so much value packed inside of it. So I wanted to get it to you. So as always, please feel free to let me know your takeaway moments or our has and tag us we would love
to hear from you. So without me banging on as I do in the introductions, here is an episode from the pure potential podcast. Alright, so thank you so much, Brianna, firstly, for coming on the podcast. Thank you for having me, I love chatting all of this stuff, this is an honour. It's gonna be so good. I just absolutely love your vibe and your energy and everything that you do. So I'm so pumped to talk to you today. All about mindset, business, and like everything in
between. But I would love to know first, where did this kind of start for you? Like, where were you before you started your business? And how did it or what was the catalyst that you were like, now I love this stuff. I'm going to turn it into a business. And yeah, how did that all unfold for you? For there's like a long version and a short version. But I'll try to give like a pretty concise version, where I was was a million places, because that's just been my nature. I love
doing lots of things. And I'm so passionate and interested in so many things. But it kind of manifested in a lot of frustration because I could never find like the one thing, you know, the main purpose. So I started off with a degree a law degree and I was in a law firm, sort of guess it same as you Oh, I literally just finished my law degree like two years ago. And then I was like what am I doing that for? That was a silly expensive piece of
paper. No. So yeah, I actually finished with a law degree found myself in a law firm thinking like, is this actually going to be my life? I don't know if this is it. So then I did journalism, I did all of this different stuff. And then because I was just really obsessed with travel to be completely honest, I got
into teaching. And that was the real spot that everything sort of started for me because I always say it was like a beautiful, beautiful accident that I ended up in the classroom because it's led me to exactly where I am. And that was working with teenagers. Essentially, I was an English teacher, but I never, I always cared more about their well being and what was going on underneath the grades.
And I could see so many students not coping because we weren't giving them the tools that they needed to thrive, we weren't really teaching them about the power of their mind. We were teaching them to regurgitate
facts and feed inside a box. And I was getting quite frustrated at the education system, but it was also fueling a passion within me to find out more and figure out how I could help my students more and then it just grew and grew and grew to the point where I started mindset coaching with teenage girls helping them because it's a bloody hard time for teenage girls. It's really hard and my heart bleeds for them honestly like the pressure that they're
under. So I started there and then it just grew and grew and business grew really fast. And then I sort of observed that I can only help teenage girls so much but if they go home to mothers who are also in pain and teaching poor, you know poor thought processes and thought poor self talk. I've got to do more with mothers. And then I started helping women. And then as business grew, people were asking me about business coaching and all of that. So it's been a ride. But that's
kind of where it started. I would say it started in the classroom. Yeah, that's so awesome. So you have that beautiful background in teaching as well. And then now you can encapsulate like your mindset work in business, because I think it's so like, it's important in life. And in business, the mindset piece like it's, it's just so huge. And I love that you're sort of mantra is really helping people to live that dream life and have that dream business that they've
always wanted. And I just, I love hearing that, because I feel like we don't hear that enough. Like so many people just think it's just not a possibility. And I guess what was the thing that changed for you where you're like, No, I'm going to do this. And this is going to work. And what's the advice that you give to your clients about, like really seeing that possibility for themselves?
This is always actually very interesting inside of my course, which I run with women, twice a year, we start with a month of dream life design. And that is really getting to what is my dream life. And for so many women, it's actually the hardest part because we haven't dreamed for so long. And instead, we're living out of like, what we believe is possible for us and what our finances say we can do or what our current
circumstances say we can do. And because of that, when you and then you add all the fear, and then what's realistic, and I feel greedy for wanting more. And I should be happy with what I've got, and all of these stories that are running in our heads. When I ask ladies like, honestly, if you could have anything? What do you want? It's a real process. And I think the first step and what helped me so much I had the best mentor in in the world who's just passed away, and it broke my heart, but
he's still with me. And I believe that he's with me right now. But he helped me to dream bigger than I'd ever dream before. And he said, stop living from circumstance and live from desire, if you could have anything and if you couldn't fail, and if success was inevitable, what would you ask for. And then I started seeing that, whoa, my dream life is totally different to what I'm doing now. And a lot of women
see that too. But it starts with giving yourself permission just to dream as if you're a child, and just play around with it and come from that energy of if I could have anything and I wouldn't be judged, and I couldn't get it wrong. And no one would leave me and I wouldn't be abandoned and all of the other stories that we have, if I could have my dream life, what would I wish for if there was a genie in a bottle? That's when we get to the real? Okay, that's what's on your heart.
Yeah, that's so good. And as you say, like we don't do that we keep to the predictable and the realistic. And it's because we're conditioned to do so. And it's from school. And it's from everything as we go through life. And then I think sometimes maybe we won't even let ourselves go there because we're so scared of the disappointment of if it doesn't happen, and
everyone's seeing us fail. So what are some of the like, limiting beliefs that you see that are the most common that come up when people start doing this work? It's always some manifestation of fear. Like it's always fear based. And it's usually like it's, I've said it a lot lately. I think the real pandemic I mean, the pandemic, I see, is this not enough story? Like it's the fear that what if I'm not enough? What if I can't do it? What if people judge me? What if
people leave me? What if I'm not smart enough? And it all comes back to this story of like, what if I'm not enough, and then people judge me or all of those fear based self doubt thoughts? Those tend to be the ones that really cripple people. Because ultimately, as humans, all we want to do is belong all we want to do is be loved. And sometimes putting yourself out there and daring to dream or to do things a little bit differently. Being different takes so much courage.
And if you're starting a business, well, Jesus Christ, it is the superhighway it is the superhighway to dealing with your mindset stuff. Because you're already going against the grain you're already doing things a little bit differently. Most people have jobs and it's very easy, like not easy, but it's a simple path to follow business is very different. And so what I found is really self doubt that comes up. Yeah, yeah, it's massive. And I think that's it's the being
different. Like it's so we're so fearful of that being different, even if it's like inside what we desperately want, we will just stay there and I we like discovering our own limiting beliefs. What are some sort of practical tips or what are the ways that we can sit down and identify what it is for us?
I think awareness is always the first thing and like this Were becoming the observer, just the curious observer, like I always say to clients, just for a moment, go outside of your mind and watch yourself, like, listen to the thoughts in your head with curiosity. Just observe them and and it's not getting caught in them. It's going, Oh, that's interesting. I just heard a voice that said, you could never do that. Where did that come from? And that's the next
question. Because it's not you the voices, aren't you they usually some I don't know, critical parent or a teacher that said something to you, or girls in high school that said something to you that hurt you, or society's conditioning, that's maybe it's got all these stories running around. But when you can learn, first of all, to separate yourself and become the bird's eye view that the observer of your thoughts and just observe them with
curiosity. That's the first step because then you realise what narratives are running. And my narrative was always something along the lines of stop talking so much, because and that's so hard because I am such a talker. I love chatting. I've always been a storyteller. I've always wanted a microphone in my hand. I love podcasting. I love that's why I do journalism. I love telling a story and investigating and sharing and like my, my biggest inspiration
was always Oprah. But then in high school, I remember, I was 14, and the girls did like an intervention, my best friend's or did this like intervention. And they went around a circle, one by one saying what they didn't like about me. And yeah, and that I am what I found, every woman has got some sort of experience like that, where it just got them. And it hurt them. And it created a story. And that's all it is. So my story stopped talking so much. When I
really thought about it. That's where it came from year nine, I was 14, I know which which voice it is which girl's voice that was that said, You talk too much. And it really hurt me. And now that was my voice. But having that awareness to go, Okay, I know where that came from. And I don't want to live with my 14 year old self anymore. My 14 year old self, you know, she got hurt, but I've got a higher purpose. So observe the thoughts, ask where they came from, and then move on anyway.
Yeah, that's incredible. And how beautiful to think now that thing that you might have thought going through your teenage years was something really negative aspect of yourself, you can really like live into in your business and your life. Now I think that's such a beautiful reframe, and how we can because I think that is for a lot of people can think that they're negative parts. Because of the conditioning.
Again, like when we I think when you get older, and you really claim who you are, you can actually see how powerful those parts of you are. So I think that's a really beautiful story. And one of mine, I think, definitely be just being shy, really shy, so too. And I've had that for a long time. And but now obviously, I'm hoping to break free with that with the doing a podcast and everything in between. But you talk a lot about confidence. And I would love to hear your thoughts on
confidence. Because I think some of us think some people are just born with it. Or like, I can't do that because I don't have it. I'm shy. So what are your thoughts on confidence? Firstly, and then if we are feeling like we've just never really felt that power, that confidence within us? What can we do to really embrace more confidence in our life? I love this question. And I find it so interesting that your story was about being shy because I have not had that
experience with you at all. It's just such an inch like, don't we tell ourselves such BS, the stories in our heads, it's such BS, I, I don't know why I'm feeling like to share this. But I had a client that I was working with last week who had the story that I'm just not a creative person. And that really could stump you in business. I'm just not creative. I'm just not creative. She's a photographer, by the way. So to think that you're not creative is so interesting, the BS stories we
tell ourselves. But then when we dive deeper, it was like, Oh, I remember the moment my year nine art teacher said that. And so she had a year nine art teacher telling her that she's not creative, yet she had a very profitable photography business. It's just crazy. So back. So the question with confidence, I think there is this idea that confident people are either born with it, or they're the loudest, or they're the most extroverted. They're the life of the party.
And that is just a lie from the get go. It's a generalisation. And sometimes those people are really over there over delivering because of a deep lack of confidence. And so just knowing that confidence comes in so many different forms and being okay with that, but also, confidence to me is a byproduct. Like it's what we feel when we have belief in ourselves. And that doesn't mean that you need to believe I'm amazing at everything and I can Do everything and I'm good at
everything. For me, the confidence comes from building trust and trust in yourself that actually I can figure it out, I can do hard things, I can find the right people, I can get the right mentor, I can find the answers. And that's why, you know, when I was a teacher, I was really quite passionate about making sure children had the opportunity to be challenged, and to do things that they thought they couldn't
do. Because once they've done the thing that they once thought they couldn't do they have this belief that I can do hard things. So then later in business, when you go, Oh, my God, I can't do this. I'm not confident in reels, I'm not confident in putting my face on camera. I'm not confident, whatever the other story is. But I've done hard things before. And really, I trust myself that I'll figure it out. And so confidence is just a byproduct
of self trust, essentially. So for my clients, I'll really take them on a journey of a finding evidence of all of the hard things they've done in their life that they weren't thought they couldn't do, just to reinforce that belief, and then be how can you really improve your self trust? So when you say you're going to do something, do it or don't say it, don't say you're going to do something, and then not do it? Because all that does is perpetuates that lack of trust. So self trust
equals confidence? Yeah, that's so true, I think and because we can break promises to ourselves so often, and that does have such a destructive effect on our confidence. And I think confidence and that mindset around confidence that you can figure it out, I think that's so important that no matter what you face, because challenges are going to come no matter what.
But if you have that mindset of like, I could, there's always another way, or there's something I can do to figure this out, I think is so incredible. And I think it's something that you absolutely need in business, having that confidence in that type of mindset, what other kind of core beliefs or things in our mindset do we need, if were were starting your own business, or were in business to really to be successful and make it work?
I really, I think, honestly comes back to a self belief like I can do this, I can do hard things. And for business resilience, like you have to be persistent. It's especially the startup phase, like that first year, or whatever it is, like, whatever that startup phase looks like. For some people, it's three months. For some
people, it's three years. And at the end of the day, if you persist, and you keep coming back, and you take, and I'm using like air quotes, but like failure, you take a failure as feedback and you pivot and you try something new. And then you go again, and again. And again, inevitably, you're going to win, but a lot of people sort of give up before they get to that golden spot. And I think persistence, and that comes again, you're only going to persist when you have got such a
clear vision. And that's why I said I start with Dream Life Design, you will only persist. In spite of your fears, in spite of all of the hard stuff that comes up, you only persist if you're driven by a vision that gets you so lit up that you're willing to move through it. And that's why we start with desire, and what do you really want and what is the dream life look for
you. And then when all of this stuff comes up, you keep persisting, you keep persisting, because at the other end, you've got a vision, like, you know, I want to change so much I want the education system to start teaching this stuff that I teach, like, I want everybody to understand the power of the mind. So I have to persist even when things feel hard, because the vision is so much more important than all of the fear and the stuff that comes up.
Yeah, I think that's so key, knowing your why and knowing your vision to be able to keep going. And I think one of the other things as well, like
business is hard. But then there's also like what you talk about a lot of when you're out of the box and you're like doing something people don't expect you to do or you're worried about judgement, how some of the ways that we can really deal with that because I think that can be something that sort of, even if your business is starting okay, you still have that like sitting on your
shoulder. How do we kind of deal with that so we can move forward confidently, even if things outside our business are kind of on our mind? Yeah, as in like the fear of judgement. Yes. Yeah. i It's a knowing that you're human, and you want to belong, and it's okay that you feel this fear of judgement. It's normal because we're social creatures. But I think and I don't know if you've had the same experience for me, like as I get older, and become so much more confident in who I
am and so much more. I love myself. And so I don't need the validation and approval of people out side of me because I'm happy with who I am. And that takes a lot of work for a lot of people to get to that point where they actually can say, I like who I am, I have a good heart, I try my best, I've got good intentions. And the right people are going to love
me for that. Like, I really, I think it helps like, you know, there's that analogy about ice cream, and you can go into a gelato store and for me, like, I'll always go cookie dough every single time. There's 100 different flavours, they'll always go chocolatey or always go cookie dough or something. I'm not a sorbet person. And it's not sorbets, bowl, it's not anything personal. You just can't be everybody's flavour.
And you just can't and it's not it's not personal, you know, it's just knowing that nothing is personal. And when you are really, really being your most authentic self, you're either going to attract people right to you like a moth to a flame or not. And that's completely okay. But it really has to come from it first from I know who I am. I like who I am. And I attract the right people by being me.
Yeah, that's so true. And I think it's by trying to not do that you're only keeping yourself small and keep yourself stuck. If you're like, trying to please everyone, because you ultimately will fail at that as well. You feel this way. But um, yeah, I think that's, that's so true. Because it's all to do with that like confidence, resilience, persistence, there's so many important things. And then also Yeah, dealing with that those outside influences as
well is is so important. And I'd love to now get into some more sort of exciting big siding things in the more positive things and you talk a lot about manifestation. And I really want to try and break this down for people because I think a lot of us like, particularly if you're new to it have don't really understand what it is or we think that doesn't really work for me. So I'd love if you can kind of break it down for us like what manifestation is, what it isn't, and how we do it properly.
No, whoa, oh my god, this is so much fun to me. It's an i It's funny, I still laugh that I'm a big like a lot of my courses even a teaching this these things, because I was not that person. either. I was like, I roll like literally iro if you start talking about bloody crystals, or universe, or God or angels, I will iro and check it out. I'm checking out but like I mentioned my mentor, just a while ago, I spent a year working with Bob Proctor who is basically the the godfather of
manifestation. He is the godfather of personal development. And that was at a time when I really needed some tools to help my students. And it was all about really understanding the mind. That's what manifestation is, it comes hand in hand with understanding your mind. And so I went on a 12 month experiment with him where I said, right, I'll get rid of my own, you know, beliefs, and I'll just, I'll be open and I'll suspend all my disbelief and do
everything this man says. And my life has literally never been the same in any way, shape, or form. And it gets better and better and better. And I get goosebumps talking about it. Because I've seen it happen with hundreds of my clients. Like when you start to understand this stuff, life feels amazing. And so the first thing is like what it's not and this is I'll start with what it's not because I know there might be people that are going like I was, oh my lord, like this is so hippie
dippie woowoo. It's not sitting and manifesting and putting your crystals under the moon and just saying like a manifesting it and leaving everything to the universe. And it's going to happen, because there is that sort of, I think there might be that sort of connotation inside of that world. I know nothing about crystals, like I know nothing. People always find me crystals as presidents, and I'm like, that's really nice, thank you beautiful, but I know
nothing about them. So it's not this like sit and meditate and sing Kumbaya and you know, wait for the universe to save you. It's really not. It is essentially just the idea and the belief, which is also very, very backed might I need to add this because for the logical brain people and I'm the same massive researcher, I need facts to really help me I need to go deep into all the research. It's backed by neuro neuroscience. It's backed in like the most ancient wisdom of all
civilizations. It's backed almost by any kind of school of thought. They're all saying the same thing, but using different language. So it's all saying the same thing. But essentially, if you say manifestation, it's the idea that your thoughts become things and that your thoughts have powerful powerful like such
power. It also with that comes the law of action, which is a completely different thing to the law of attraction but essentially it's that you are always attracting Based on what you are in harmony with, so like attracts like, if you are a negative person, you probably attract more negative experiences and people into your life purely because you're in resonance with you know, you've probably seen it in workplaces, the winners hang together, because they're in energetic
harmony with each other. And like, you've seen it you know, some when you say I vibe with that person, vibe literally comes from the word vibration. And vibration is a scientific fact it can be it can be measured, when you vibe with someone, it's just saying that our vibration is literally in harmony with each other. I feel like I mean, you know, I get on with it energy, it just works. And so it's basically yes, your
thoughts become things. And because of that, when I teach people manifestation, I love how they become very, very aware of their thoughts, and willing to work through mindset stuff, because it is, it is how you manifest through your mind. Yeah, yeah, I think it's really just that awareness of how powerful your thoughts are. And to be a lot more conscious of what is cycling in there all the
time. Like, what are some of the things what are your favourite practices like to sort of get a handle on if you feel like something's going around in there or toxic thought patterns? What are some of your favourite practices to really, yes, sort of get that out and get back into the vibration that you want to be.
And there's a few in terms of clearing out the the waves, the waves and the negative belief patterns, probably either working with a coach or doing like some journaling and looking for evidence to disprove those beliefs. So you know, if you have a belief that it's going to be really hard to build a business, go and find evidence of people that have made it look enjoyable, and they love their business. And if you have a belief that this is a real common one for my clients, it's
always money stuff. But the belief that money is the root of all evil, wanting more money makes you greedy. Go and find evidence like Oprah, and other people who have dedicated their lives with all of their money to making the world a better place, like go and find evidence to disprove. But in terms of changing your vibration, and using your mind in a powerful way. My favourite practice is always visualisation. And that's because visualisation rewires
your subconscious mind. And your subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between what's real and what's imaginary. So, when you imagined something beautiful or terrible, you trigger that result you trigger that feeling inside of your body, you can you know, most of us spend our days worrying and seeing and visualising negative outcomes. And then we live in a
state of anxiety and panic. So, if we can just switch the switch it and visualise positive outcomes, we start to vibrate that higher level as well. Yeah, I think that's, it's just amazing. And it's one of the things that it isn't taught in school that how powerful your thoughts are like this is what's been mind blowing for me in the last sort of five or six years when I've started to do this work is like I just neglected that whole. I just thought my crazy mind that just was telling
me all these things. That's just normal. Yeah. And it's so it's so interesting, once you start to pull that apart. It's just, it's huge. And I think that plays a big part in your mission. One of your missions is really to help people live life by design, and not by default. I absolutely love that. Because I think if we don't get a handle on these things, we are living our life by default. We're just responding to things and we're not proactively creating that
life that we want. So what are some of the biggest things that you need? I think we need to get a handle on to really create the life that we want a life by design. The first thing is clarity, I think and that that can be a process to like, it's again, coming back to like, what do I want, because otherwise you will you'll you'll become a tumbleweed blowing in any direction that your teacher said you should go or your parents said you should go, I got offered this job. So I'll just
take it. And then 20 years later, you're like, What the hell, I don't even like this job. How did I end up here. So if you don't have a clear vision that you created you, not your parents, not your teachers, not your friends, your partner, your husband, whatever. If you don't start with a clear vision and a dream, you will become subject to anybody else's plans for you.
So to make sure that you're living by design, you have to come back to that clarity and that question of what would I wish for if my success was inevitable? Yeah, that's incredible. I think that's such a good mantra to even just start your day with and sit and visualise what that would be like. And I'd love to know that you with Bob Proctor, like how was that and what were your biggest takeaways? I think that's Oh, incredible. How did that even come up?
It came up right at the time when I was getting frustrated at the education system, and trying to figure out what my higher purpose was because it was still getting that niggling feeling that I'm not here to teach Shakespeare and essays on repeat, I was so awful, I was just so off it. So personally, I was trying to find what I was going to do next, while helping my kids figure out how I can help them, you know, understand
their mind. So I stumbled across, I think I might have watched the secret or something. And I don't know. And then I saw him and I was really attracted to his energy because to me, I really feel people's energy. And he just felt kind and genuine and pure. And even though I never connected with that whole God universe, angels, whew, like I didn't at the time, I really resonated with his belief that
you can do anything. And I truly, I've always believed that my I think that's why I probably was quite a popular teacher, because my students could tell me that they wanted to be the first person to run to the moon. And I'd be like, course you can, like, you can do anything. You can do whatever you want. I believe that. And when Bob was saying that all the time, I was like, This man is so infectious.
And I want what he's got. So I yeah, I just ended up somehow on a sales call, essentially, with his team that were like, You should spend all of your money that you don't have. And I was so afraid. So if I didn't even tell my partner, I was like, I cannot tell him how much this was. Because, you know, we had goals we were trying to save for a house. And I just went and blew the money on a Bob Proctor programme. And it was so Whoo.
So Whoo. So my partner was like, what you've, you've lost the plot, you have gone and lost the plot, like, this is another moment where I'm just doing another thing probably end up doing another degree like, so anyway, yeah, the year that followed, like, a just magical and the the biggest lesson was that literally, you can have whatever you want, when you learn the power of your mind. And and that is what we're not taught at school, and I get so
mad about it. So I have clients that have, you know, 3040 50, and they're only learning this stuff now. And I just think it needs to be taught It's the power of the mind. And really, you can have anything if you remove the layers of conditioning, if you remove the conditioning, because the only limit is the limit we have put on ourselves. Yeah, that's incredible. What like, that's such an awesome year and such an awesome story. Does your partner concur that it was money well spent?
Oh, my God, it's so funny. And I actually have a lot of clients that say to me, free that I did a q&a box, actually last week inside of my programme, and I said like any question, let's go, I love answering questions. And a lot of them said, How do I bring my partner along for this journey, who's kind of struggling, you know, with the Whoo, and with my personal development. And I said, like, don't try to convince anyone, I never tried to convince my partner about any of this stuff.
I just went and lived it. Like I lived it. And he and it's funny. My whole family was a bit the same my brother a few months. A few months later, after my brother was like, Yeah, right. Oh, what the hell like you spent what you did what? All of a sudden people started going, Hey, um, can I could I borrow your login? Can I can I have a look? And I was like, it's just infectious because people kind of it's like, you know, to put it in whoo terms, higher vibration is very attractive.
It's an attractive or magnetic force. And people start becoming curious. So yeah, my partner he says things all the time now. And I, I just think, God, I love you. But also, wow, you've changed you go. Yeah, you're right. Like, it's just about energy. It's just a vibration, isn't it? Like, I love you so much. And that's the thing it rubs off. And then you attract those things that you're after as well. And it's just it, I think it's a beautiful way to work and
to live. If that's like you're just attracting the people that feel that from you. And they're gonna get what they need from you, like you did with Bob Proctor. You could feel that. And then working with him is obviously one of the biggest years of your life. Yeah, just just
amazing. And I guess that's another piece of evidence for people that when you're just being you, whoever that is, whether it is a shy person or out there person or a performer or an artist when you're just being you, the right people resonate with that and love you for it. And so, it's just more evidence that being you is safe, and they'll always you'll always find your people.
Yeah, exactly. And it's that abundance thing as well and just realising because I think that's what some people can come into business and be like, but who will want what I've got like, who's who's gonna want it? How do you kind of coach your clients through that to really help them understand, like, there's people, your people are there? Yeah, I love this because it does it comes back to that scarcity mindset of, there's not enough for me, or she's already doing it, or how am I going to
do that? What where are the clients gonna come from blah, blah, blah, which is scarcity mode. And when we can tap into abundance, like first of all, there are 7 billion people in the world probably more, I don't know, there's 7 billion people in the world, most people too when I look at their business, and we look at their numbers, like actually look at your numbers. Alright, so we've done your dream life design, you've told me that you want a six
figure business. And when we actually kind of reverse engineer that, and we go, okay, so we want you to do, let's say, for example, they're like, I want to do 10k months. Cool. So for you to do 10k months, we've decided based on your offers, that you would need five
clients, right? To get your dream life, your dream life, you need five clients, are you telling me there's not five humans in this world, five out of 7 billion, that it's like, all of a sudden, it starts shifting, it doesn't feel so far
away. So I think when you crunch your numbers, and realise how abundant the universe is, and understand that abundance is actually the the natural way of things like, go and spend some time in nature, and you'll realise that nature's not worrying about where the oxygens coming from, nature's not worrying about the flower next to it, outgrowing it, it just grows, it just is it just
expands and were the same. So abundance is actually our most natural state all of the limitations and the scarcity that we put on top of that. That's conditioning. That's crap. So, you know, it's an abundant universe, and we get to be part of that. Yeah, that's so incredible. And just it is all about just embracing who you are. And I think one of the things we can also struggle with is, is not knowing our purpose, or we think that we don't know what our purpose is, or maybe it's not
grand enough? Or maybe it's too out there. Yeah. How do you help people really solidify what that is, and help them to know that they can work in a way that incorporates their purpose? I love this question, because it used to make me so frustrated, like, what's my purpose? What's my purpose, and it was so stressful. It was so stressful. And what I found is that we're always on purpose, there's no elusive like, Oh, my God, I'm off purpose. Even if it feels like that. It's part of your
purpose. And you know, all those years that I spent frustrated and trying to figure it was, was actually what I needed. I needed to be in the classroom, I needed to be having those conversations, I was always on purpose. And sometimes understanding that can take away the pressure. So it's like, look for the lessons, if you're feeling frustrated, how will you know when you feel more clarity, or, like, you're always on
purpose. The other thing about that is, even underneath all of those phases of life, like if you feel like you're frustrated, you know, I was frustrated inside of the classroom. But underneath that, I was still quite on purpose. Because as long as there's humans and connection, and deep conversations, and that's when I look back to even being in the law firm, it wasn't the right
thing. But moments where I loved moments where I was lit up was actually having banter with colleagues, mostly about how we don't like this job. But like, you know, it's still there, there was still moments where I was like, interesting, or when I was writing for the spotlight, doing some sports journalism, it was still the interviewing people and getting to know people deeply and all of that. So inside of that, what I thought was, I don't know what I want, I'm off purpose. Inside of
that. If you look deeper, I was still living my purpose in those moments of human connection and creativity. And it's all leading me to exactly where I am now. And it's evolving, and it's growing, but you're always on purpose and look for those underlying lessons, those moments where you're like, Oh, that was brilliant. I loved that part. I liked that piece. I don't like that, but I liked that. There'll be an underlying
theme. Maybe it's just that you know, for you You're somebody of service or you're somebody of creativity or and the universe will give you all of these experiences to help you filter out Oh, that's not it. That's not it. That's it, that's it and all of it takes you to alignment but you're always on purpose. Ah, that's so good. And and just that everything it's and it's that abundance mindset as well. Like everything that you're doing is contributing to where you're
going. Like all a part of it. I really love looking at it like that and and it's sort of also a way that you can really just be grateful for what's happening now, even if it's like, not where you want to be. Is that something you changed your clients as well, just that grateful pays, because I know there's always Yeah, nothing that we need to incorporate. Yeah, 100%. And it's the thing about manifestation, if you want to use that term, you cannot attract what you don't vibrate.
So if you are trying to attract abundance, and flow and ease, but you're sitting in a place of frustration, and this isn't enough, and I'm not there yet, you're just attracting more of
it. And I always say to clients, especially in business, and when they come in, they're like, I'll be happy when I'll feel good, when I will be successful when that right there is a red flag and attract because if you can't feel it now, and if you can't be grateful and happy and satisfied in the present moment, I promise you, that goal is not going to do it either. It's just not because we have to train ourselves to be so present and happy in this moment. And gratitude is always back to
gratitude. You know, if you're breathing, and you're listening to a podcast, and you're driving to a job that maybe you don't like, You're honestly part of the most affluent, affluent in the world, like, and we've kind of lost sight of that sometimes. Because you know, more and more and more and more and more.
That's, that's a worry. I think when we it's ironic, because I tell people dream big, and I want you to dream big, not so much because of the goal, and what and the things and the possessions and the titles that you get, but of who you get to become on the way and who, who
you're being. And you want to be the person that's always in abundance and lives from a place of gratitude, regardless of the external, the external stuff, because the money the cause the jobs, the business, it's it's not going to join anything if you can't feel abundant now.
Yeah, that's, and I think that, taking it back to business as well, particularly if you're starting or you're not seeing results, I think that can be such an incredible way to help yourself to keep going to be really grateful for where you are and realise yet that you're getting there. But you won't get to that goal. Because I think that's something like, and I
know, I still do it. Like it's like, Oh, I'll be like things will start I'll have a bit more momentum when this happens or deliver and when this happens. And yeah, I love that too. Just remember that you need to feel that now and is Do you reckon the best way to do that is like visualisation is to sort of feel that way. Now, when you're in your business, and you're starting and you're like, it's not going, how do we go? Like, how do we just know that this is gonna work out?
I think literally, and I say this to clients, sometimes I want you to literally take an inventory, like a stock list of all of the evidence in your life as it is right now have so much overflow. And that might mean you've got the most amazing friends or your kids are healthy, or you've got a bloody roof over your head, look at your fridge, like, look how many options you have for food, you can pick up Uber Eats right now and get anything to your front
door. Literally take a stock of all of the evidence in your life as it is. And what you focus on grows, what you seek you find. So when you start looking for it, you see more of it. And then you go, Oh my god, I'm actually already so abundant and more is coming to me. And when you tap into that more does come quite quickly, actually, because you've changed your state and you start coming from that
place. So I think also, like I totally understand like the startup in business, it's it just brings up so much impatience. But I want it now. And it's really hard, like it can be so hard. And that's where it can't, you really have to just surrender. And you have to let go of the grip on your timeline and your expectations. And your attachment to how it's meant to look and keep coming back to taking stock of all of the things in my life right now.
That truly matter. Like truly because, yes, you've got a vision, yes, your business is important to you. But if you were to die tomorrow, do you think that your family is going to talk about your business success? Or who you are and who you are being? And do you think that you're gonna regret moments with your family? Or, you know, like, really think about that too, because it just helps to put everything into perspective. And for you to loosen that grip. Yeah, that's so incredible.
Because I think as well we can get so attached to time, like time is a big one that we're like, why don't you set and I think it's like, do you encourage people to set goals that are time bound? Or how do we sort of navigate that or if you don't hit them, then what's the next step? How do we keep going? Yeah, I put a timeline on it, but also say and the universe has got its own clients like I in the business space. I remember people saying, Oh, you don't usually turn a profit for
five years. I'll allow they're all the stories that people tell about if I had believed that, yeah, like, time is our human construct. And I do believe that putting a timeline on it helps us to get into action. And it can actually sometimes the quicker the timeline we put on it, the more productive we become. So it can be really, really great. But also knowing that things will happen what for me? I was very lucky, like things happened way quicker than I probably thought they would.
And for some people, it takes a bit longer. But that doesn't mean anything. It just means we keep pivoting, we keep going. And it's all going to work out. But yes, the to answer the question, yes. Put a timeline and be okay with whatever happens. Yeah, yeah, I think that's so important so that we don't get let down. But that Yeah. And I think it's just that, isn't it, having that mindset of like, it's coming, I'm doing the work, I'm showing up. I'm doing my part like it's coming. I think
that's so powerful. And I'd love to know, like, this has been such a beautiful conversation. I just, yeah, this is why I have this podcast for these kind of incredible conversations. But I'd love to know what it looks like to work with you and what office you've got happening at the moment. It looks a lot like what we've just spoken about. But doing doing the work, like really getting deep onto Who am I like, who am I really? And what do I
want. And so my main course that I run twice a year, it's called level up your life. And it's that it's 12 weeks, it's pretty intense. And we do we start with Dream Life Design, and what do I want and who What would my life look like if I could have anything and we stoke that sort of desire. And then we do six weeks of mindset and subconscious reprogramming. And it looks a lot like in a child like doing some inner child
work. And it looks like visualising and all of the things that we need to rewrite our stories and our narratives, release the conditioning, figure out where it all came from, and then release it. And then in the end, we do a little bit of understanding more of the whoo sort of law of attraction stuff, once they've got to, once they understand that actually, it's all just science, and it's based on the brain or the mind. So that's what it looks like. And that's level up. It looks like a
fun time. It also looks like a lot of like, Whoa, I didn't know that. I didn't know that I had that story running. And you know, it's really cool. It's really cool to witness people change their story and create their reality from a place of desire instead of default. Yeah, it's so and I think is that what you love the most about your work is seeing those like breakthroughs and transformations. Yeah, I love those moments. I
had one this week. And somebody said to me, like, I've finally figured out where that voice came from. And I know whose it is. And that voice isn't mine. And I'm not. I'm not giving it oxygen anymore. And oh, yes. I love I live for the moments too. When people say why weren't we taught this at school? Like, yes, that's literally what I was hoping for. So those are the moments that I love. And it's I have big I have a big vision to put this into schools, so Oh, gosh, yeah, I'd be all for
that. That'd be so good. Because it's just yeah, it's so crucial that time in our lives and I think a lot of us leave and we've been fumble around for years before you learn it and then you like ah, yeah, this before? Like yeah, so powerful. And so where can we find you follow you and see all your incredible Instagram is so good and your podcast I want to hear all about that.
Yeah, probably those two to be honest so the podcast is the Miss mindset podcast and Instagram is at Miss mindset underscore so frustrating that I needed the underscore it was already taken. Little business. He still has the original. I did in the end. I was like oh come on. She's never used it. She's got five posts or something. And I don't think it's been used in years. Like that's so cool. But you know business you take what
you do with business. So yeah, at Miss mindset underscore is the the Instagram. Oh, beautiful. Oh, well, I just want to thank you so much Breanna for coming on and just sharing so beautifully. And you're so authentic and down to
earth and real. And I think that's really great for these kinds of conversations where we do talk about manifestation and we do talk about the law of attraction, things like that, to have someone who is so grounded and so real and so authentic, I think just really helps people to know the power of it and how important it is. So I just want to thank you so much for your time today. No worries. Thank you for having me. It's so nice. I love you know, being able to speak.
Yes, you can finally let yourself no one's gonna tell you talk too much anymore. It's so good. It's like yeah, the cosmic little cosmic joke of the universe that we had to get through that to get to the other side. Yeah, so perfect. Thank you so much. Thank you
