Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Redefining Money, Abundance, and the Spiritual Path

• Contradicting the Narrative: Traditional upbringing often taught that spiritual fulfillment and financial abundance are mutually exclusive. Both Sahara and Mimi bust this myth through lived experience.
  • Sahara: "My biggest block was, you can either do what you love and be broke, or sell your soul to make money."
  • Mimi: "My parents are artists... the one thing growing up that they would fight about was money. There was sadness, fear, and negativity around money."
• The Realization: Abundance is not reserved for those born into wealth or privilege. Mindset is the most critical lever to shift.

2. Limiting Beliefs About Money

• Common Blocks:
  • "Money can’t buy happiness."
  • "Rich people aren’t happy or cheat on each other."
  • "Having money makes keeping relationships hard because people use you."
  • "I'll be happy when I have money."
• Mimi: “If you want to make money and you're holding on to the belief ‘I'll be happy when I have money,’ then you're never going to be happy... you live in a perpetual state of lack.” ([09:38])

3. Abundance as Effortlessness & Intuitive Alignment

• Following Your Dharma: The more you align with your soul’s purpose, the more abundance flows.
  • Mimi: “You’ll make the most money when you’re so in line with your soul’s purpose... Intuition, especially as a woman, is our biggest strength.” ([14:04])
• Don’t Copy—Create: Trying to duplicate someone else’s dream backfires energetically.
  • “If you’re copying someone else, you’re not in your soul’s purpose. The universe just doesn’t support that.” ([14:04])

4. Understanding & Using Activations

• Mimi’s Innovation:
  • Activations are not meditations; they are energizing, motivational guided visualizations paired with cinematic music, designed for listening while in motion.
  • “Activations... are essentially programming you to feel like your future self... It's reprogramming the brain in a subliminal but also conscious way.” ([16:49])
  • Stackable with daily routines—skincare, walking, etc.—to rewire identity and self-worth.
• Key Difference: Activations help you be that version of yourself, not just visualize—bringing energy into everyday moments.

5. Shifting from Scarcity to Clarity & Action

• Step 1: Clarity: Get honest, remove numbing distractions (endless scrolling, binge-watching, etc.), and allow your authentic desires to surface.
  • “Most of us have clarity deep down, but can’t access it because we’re numbing all day long.” ([21:37])
• Step 2: Intuition & Self-Reflection:
  • Use journaling: List “what I want” vs. “what I don’t want,” “what I’m good at” vs. “what I’m bad at.”
  • Seek uniqueness in your venture; a small twist can set you apart.
• Business Reflection: Your business growth mirrors your personal growth.
  • “The years where I’m thriving in my personal development are the years my business grows the most.” ([23:07])

6. The 10x Principle for Entrepreneurs

• Big Shift: Focus only on the 1-3 actions with potential to 10x your business instead of many 2x actions.
  • Mimi: “10x is easier than 2x. My entire team's focus is on one or two things. We stopped 90% of what we were doing and doubled our growth.” ([25:59])
• Practical Application: Evaluate activities by their 10x potential, drop the rest.

7. How to Choose Focus When Multi-Passionate

• Experimentation: Try many things (throw spaghetti at the wall), but use intuition to know when to let go or lean in.
  • “When you feel connected, the path unfolds itself. When you’re disconnected and numb, you are confused. Taking action brings clarity.” ([31:37])

8. Feeling as the Magnet for Manifestation

• Embodied Visualization: The most powerful tool is to feel the desired state in your body, not just see it in your mind.
  • Mimi guides listeners: “Don’t think your visualization—feel your visualization. It comes from the heart... Feel how it is to be that future self now.” ([33:51])
• Layering Emotions: Start with abundance, then layer in health, love, joy. Make it normal—not on a pedestal—to ease its arrival.

9. Love, Relationships, and Manifestation

• It’s All Connected: The frequency you cultivate for money, purpose, and relationships is the same—what matters is “how it feels” in your body.
  • “Stop focusing on the external, focus on how your dream partner makes you feel.” ([45:11])
• Personal Stories: Mimi manifested her now-husband Ben less than 24 hours after recording an activation about love.
  • Mimi: “I described how he made me feel, not how he looked or who he was. I met him the next day.” ([48:00])

10. Manifestation: Feeling vs. Controlling the Outcome

• Essence Over Specifics: Manifestation isn’t about exact outcomes but about feeling the frequency of what you want now.
  • “All I knew was that I wanted to live a big, interesting life... I didn’t know the details. There are many realities that can give you that feeling.” ([51:41])
• Patience and Surrender: Drop obsession with the “how” and “when”—trust timing and the mystery.

11. Rewiring Your Brain (The Bunny Trail Analogy)

• Changing Thought Habits: Old negative thoughts are like a well-paved road; new empowering beliefs are like forging a bunny trail—awkward at first but eventually become the new default.
  • “The first few times are uncomfortable, ducking for branches... But soon the trail gets worn in and becomes the new easy path.” ([61:20])
• Act As If: Be “her now” in daily life. 
  • “That is 90% of the equation—when you act, think, and feel as her, you’re already there.” ([54:18])

Transcript

[A]

It doesn't actually need to be that hard, which is very controversial. I deeply believe we all, each and every one of us, hold so much potential deep down, whether it's money you want, whether it's love you want, whether it's joy and bliss, every single day, aliveness. I believe all of us have that potential. And what I've discovered over the years is that it actually doesn't need to be too complicated when it comes to creating your dream life. You just need to know what levers to pull, and then it becomes a lot more simple and a lot more effortless.

[B]

Welcome to the Highest Self podcast. My name is Sahara Rose, and on this podcast, I love to talk about spirituality, but make it modern, fun, grounded, and relatable so it can actually serve your needs. One of the biggest questions I get is, how have I created the business that I have today that I literally am paid to be me in all versions of me? It's crazy. Sometimes I pinch myself. I'm like, how am I, like, literally making seven figures? And I'm in Bali and Egypt and India and talking about past lives and karmic relationships and embodying temple sacred feminine Rose Serpentine. Like, whatever I'm interested in, I get to talk about, and I am paid for it. It's so freaking cool. Like, and I started to look back, and it was all of these mindset shifts that I made. Like, it didn't. It didn't happen randomly. No woman in my family even worked. My lineage comes from Iran, let alone living their purpose, let alone making money. I was told that you're gonna get a job that you hate, and that's what life is. I was not around people doing things they loved. I never met anyone. No one from my small town, Massachusetts, was doing anything cool. So it's not that I grew up in, like, the, you know, spiritual Will Smith's family or something, you know? And if anything, my biggest block was, you can either do what you love and you're going to be broke, or you have to, like, sell your soul to make money. Like, that is all I saw, because as I went on my spiritual journey and I went to places like India and Bali, I was seeing people who are, you know, like tantricas and shamans, but they were all, like, struggling with money. And so I thought, okay, this is the crossroads. I'm either gonna have to take the full spiritual path and pretty much never be able to travel, never be able to have, you know, like, organic foods and massages and things like that. Like, just have a Very simple life. But I can do what I love, or I have to, like, become a real estate agent and, like, do something extremely masculine and financial, and I'll make money, and I probably will not have any time for anything spiritual and lose that and have to just kind of keep it as a hobby on the weekend sometime. Those are the two paths. Like, my mind created this very, like, linear thing. And it was as I further went along the journey that I started to realize, like, oh, I went through my health challenges for a reason, because I'm here to share about them. And I don't know how it will happen, but I know I meant to share this in a deeper way. And then I got the idea to write a book, and then I wrote the book, and then I got a book deal, and then Deepak Chober wrote the forward of the book, and then I wrote three more books, and it just kept going. And then I started. I was like, how do you make an online course? And I just started following that. That thread, and then my membership community, and then my institute, and it just kept growing. And throughout it all, I continue to stay anchored within myself, into my dharma, into my soul's purpose. And I realized that the more I was living my purpose, actually the higher levels of abundance I would create because I was being true to myself. And I started to meet other people who are doing that, like, making friends with people and seeing. And I'm like, oh, wait, this is like a universal law. Like, it's not just me. And so years ago, I came across this queen named Mimi and saw that she was first starting to record these. These activations and witnessing her journey grow. And she was on the podcast, like, a year and a half ago, and the platform has even exploded since then. And she's someone who, in her own way, walks that path of not living in a family that had, you know, abundance and entrepreneurial, like, in this kind of way mindset. And she listened to the synchronicities, found her soul's purpose, began embodying it, and then creating maximum levels of abundance. Living in Bahamas with the love of her life. She just got married. Like, all these things that you're like, whoa, how did that happen? And in this episode, we break it down, we break down exactly what she did, what were the limiting beliefs she unblocked and the tool that she created. So what she was doing to rewire her own brain, that brought her from scarcity mindset to abundance mindset, from not knowing who she was going to be in a relationship with to manifesting her ideal man who I'm. I'm going to do this one right after the episode. Girls, all these things. And she actually has now created this platform called Activations. It's an app and she's given us a a free two week trial on activations.comsahar. i'm just put that the very first link so we don't miss that because that's two weeks free plus a huge discount. And so she's created this like, literally her dharma of like, wait, I went through this really hard thing. This is what actually brought me out of it. And now how can I share with other people? And so she's sharing with us, like, and I asked like, you know, some of my per. I open up about what my type is and the recent date I went on. Can't believe I shared that. Good thing no guy ever dates. Listen to to this podcast. So I'm safe here. It's a safe space on the Internet. So we talk about that and she actually guides us through an activation right here on the conversation on this podcast. So that's really freaking cool. So without further ado, let's get into this episode. And before we get into this episode, be sure to hit subscribe. That allows you to stay in the loop for future conversations.

And let's get into this one. All right, well, welcome back to the Highest Level podcast. Mimi, it's so good to have you back.

[A]

I know, I'm so excited for this. Sahara, I like, we're talking about off air. Since I last saw you. It's been like a whole year and a bit year and a half. And we were just catching up because you're in Dubai now and then Bali and now back in la. And I feel like so much has advanced in the past year.

[B]

It's been crazy. I mean, it's like, what can happen when we truly, like, commit to creating a change in our lives? And you, I mean, like, I was talking to my friend Krista of almost 30 about you, and it's like, what the bigness of your purpose that you have manifested and created for yourself is so inspiring. And I know so many people right now are in this, like, transitional place in their careers where they're like, okay, it's time for me to stop playing small. It's time for me to stop, you know, kind of staying in the spiritual closet or holding back who I really am. And I'm just really curious. I mean, I want to talk with you about like abundance because even just like the levels that you're doing things are so huge and career and how you're stepping into your purpose, but people might look at you now and be like, oh my God, you have this incredible app. You have activations, you are impacting, you know, hundreds of thousands of people. And you know, your app is doing so financially well and you live in the Bahamas. I was like, girl, I wanna live in the Bahamas. But you didn't start there. So can you share how you grew up and what was the money story and everything you taught were taught about money growing up?

[A]

Okay, well, it's a really great thing to talk about because I enjoy actually sharing how different life used to be because it allows people to realize that they can also create a better life for themselves, even if they didn't come from a. And that's actually a really big thing. So I didn't come from a lot of money. My parents are artists and I love them, they're amazing people. But the one thing growing up that they would fight about and the whole household would be stressed out about is money related stuff. And there was just a lot of sadness and fear and negativity around money growing up that it was really ingrained to me as a child. And I remember that feeling of just not feeling safe, Safe when, when, you know, I'm overhearing my parents argue about how we can't afford something. And I just, I remember that little girl feeling this feeling of like, oh, I wish things were different. And yeah, so I. We didn't have a lot growing up and I actually think that's what inspired me to be financially free myself and to create so much wealth for myself. It's because it was such a polarity when I was younger. It was very lacking and, and that was kind of what got me into personal development. I'm not going to lie. At the beginning, it wasn't anything but money. I just wanted to become my best self so I could become wealthy and safe finally. So it actually in a way motivated me. But yeah, so I didn't. I felt a lot of fear growing up around money. There were a lot of limiting beliefs that I was told, like money. People that have money aren't happy, rich people aren't happy or they cheat on each other so their relationships are not happy or all these crazy things.

[B]

I've heard those for sure.

[A]

Really wild.

[B]

So what else? Like what are some other Limiting beliefs people may have around money just so we can see them in ourselves.

[A]

That you can't have fulfilling relationships once you're rich because people are just going to try to use you the whole time. That's a big one that it's really hard to maintain once you get there. And it's like you're constantly on this uphill battle. And also the biggest one is I'll be happy when. If you want to make money and you're holding on to the belief I'll be happy when I have money, then you're never going to be happy. And you're going to live in this perpetual state of lack, and that's not going to get you there.

[B]

I love that nuance because a lot of people, they look at their money stories and they're like, okay, so I need to make a lot of money so I can be safe. But you're saying if you think that money in itself is thing that's going to make you happy, it's also not that.

[A]

Okay, this is a very interesting topic.

[B]

Yeah, let's dive into this nuance.

[A]

Yeah. Because I will be honest and I'm going to be completely honest and say that making more money, in a way has made me happier, but I've also been doing the work on myself, so I don't really know. You know, it's. It's not the only thing that's going to make you happy. There are so many wealthy people that are not happy, but there are so many poor people that are not happy. Right. So it's difficult, but it does relieve a lot of stress from you, and it does bring you joy to be able to give to the people you love and to be able to support certain causes and things that you believe in and have that freedom. So there is definitely an interesting point here when it comes to, does money make you happy? Because it has. I feel happy when I'm in a beautiful hotel and I feel happy when I can buy, you know, my sister present that she's been wanting. Or I feel happy when I can help out my parents. I feel happy when our car just broke down last week. And it's like, it's fine. Let's just like, if we have to get a new car, we have to get a new car, you know, so, you know, happiness is one of those things that you can cultivate at any income level, but money brings this certain safety and ease to life, and it reduces the amount of things that you get stressed out about. So I think wealth and money is a Very positive thing. And I love to talk about it. And I think that it's achievable for every single person listening, having more money and not being worried about paying rent the next month or not. You know, getting that crappy sinking feeling when you look at your bank account and you're like, oh, I don't know if I have enough. That. That's not a good feeling. I don't think anyone, you know, wants that. Right. So it's possible to create that. And I've. I Honestly, my. My whole life has been this constant. Well, the past 10 years of my life, since I've been in personal development, it's been this. This constant stream of synchronicities and coincidences since I've started really doing this work. And I thought to myself, okay, I'm not special. Like, I just started listening to that little voice inside of me that said, what if there was more out there? So any single person listening, I deeply believe we all, each and every one of us, hold so much potential deep down. Whether it's money you want, whether it's love you want, whether it's joy and bliss, every single day, aliveness. I believe all of us have that potential. And what I've discovered over the years is that it actually doesn't need to be too complicated. It doesn't actually need to be that hard, which is very controversial. I talk about it effortlessness when it comes to creating your dream life. You just need to know what levers to pull. And then it becomes a lot more simple and a lot more effortless.

[B]

And I feel like that is such a big piece, the synchronicities that are guiding us towards the way that we are meant to make money. Because I think we can all agree that having more money, the ease on the nervous system of, like, you know, I travel a lot, my bag is always overweight. And, you know, before would be like, the most stressful freaking thing of, like, what am I gonna take out of my bag? How much I fit into my backpack, like, how am I gonna get it on? Because it's like, $50 to pay overweight, and I can't do that. And now, like, I'm like. I fill it up, and I know it's overweight because I'm just gonna pay the overweight fee or check an extra bag, which apparently is a little less, actually. But, like, you know, I don't have to worry about it so much. It's like, whatever, you know, Like. And so I think we can all agree, like, that feels really good. But Then I think where I've noticed even my own beliefs in the past get caught are like, but the things I have to do for money are things I don't want to do. And so it's like, I want the money, but I don't want to sell my soul for the money. So then I'd rather not have it than have to do what it takes to make money.

[A]

This is interesting because I actually believe that you'll make the most amount of money possible if you are so in line and in tune with your soul's purpose, if you're doing something. This is actually something that came up today because my team was texting me these screenshots we got on Instagram of, like, this copycat app and this girl that's basically doing the same thing. And I'm like, well, does she not know that we have a trademark? Whatever. Anyway. And I. And at first I got annoyed, but then I was like, I'm actually not worried because I know the laws of the universe and I know that that will never actually kick off. Like, that person will never be successful if they're trying to copy something. There is an energy when it comes to copying, and it just doesn't work. So that means that she's not in her soul's purpose because she's trying to take someone else's, like, soul's purpose or goal and replicate it. But I deeply, deeply believe when you get in tune with your intuition and you keep flowing into the things that you know are meant for you in this life path, that is your true goal. And your true goal is so much easier to fulfill, as opposed to you trying to do something that's not actually aligned with you, whether that's seeking a bit too much inspiration from somewhere, or whether that's your parents telling you that they want you to be a doctor, you know, whether that is you telling yourself, you know, that you need to do something a certain way, but not actually realizing that's not your deep, sole purpose. And leaning into intuition over and over and over again, especially as an entrepreneur, especially as a woman, I think it's our biggest strength. And that's my biggest piece of advice. I think when you're creating, you know, a new business especially, it's like, lean in to what you deeply feel in your soul is your thing. Create something, and it's going to be so much better and more abundant that way.

[B]

So this reminds me, because I listen to these incredible activations that you have, and I know you're releasing a new series on entrepreneurship so how can people tune into? Like, I think everyone's like, okay, I don't even know what the thing would be that I would do related to my sole purpose, that would also bring me. Because I do believe each person is meant to, to have a certain level of abundance that like what we're desiring is desiring us back. And so certain people, it's like for their soul's purpose, like for yours is like, maybe you really are meant to like be in like private jets and this and that, and that's why you're creating this kind of business for someone else. It might be, I just want enough to buy land in Costa Rica and like live off grid for someone else. It could be X amount. But we can only do that when we can first be really honest with ourselves and then begin to create careers that are in alignment with our truth. So how can we use your activations and if you can share what the activations are for really understanding what is the right purpose and career path for ourselves, for sure.

[A]

So activations are a new type of audio that I developed a couple years ago, well actually eight years ago at this point. And it's not meditation, it's activation. It's a new category of sound. So just like you have your podcasts, just like you have music, just like you have meditation, those are all great for certain moments of the day. Activations kind of fit a new need that a lot of people have had. You can habit stack listening to these. So activations are designed to be listened to in everyday moments. So while you're walking the dog, while you're getting ready in the morning, these are motivational guided visualization audios that are paired with cinematic movie moment type music. And they are essentially programming you to feel like your future self. All of them are very transformation focused. So unlike meditation. That's amazing to create, clear your mind and calm your nervous system and really tune in. Activations are very energizing. And you listen to them while you're moving, while you're doing things. So it's kind of like a modern take on the Pavlov's dog theory, classical conditioning. You know, Pavlov rings the bell, the dog salivates. So listening to an activation, flooding your brain with new thoughts and beliefs and a new energy while you're, say, doing your skincare routine in the morning. Soon enough you don't even need to be listening to an activation to feel empowered, abundant, confident, magnetic when you're doing that. So really it is reprogramming the brain in kind of A subliminal way, but also in a conscious, you know, listening to this guided verbiage and this motivational music at the same time. So really, it just. It reconditions you. It changes how you think, changes how you feel. And at the end of the day, how we think and how we feel creates our life and how we feel about ourselves, how we see ourselves creates our life. Our self image creates our life. So if you could just have a little tool in your back pocket to listen to, to kind of, you know, dial up that aliveness feeling, that's activation. So we've.

[B]

So you have two that are about going on a first date. And I was listening to them because before a first date, especially on a date dating app, I want to vomit. I'm like, I'm never doing this again. This sucks. I'm going on a blind date with a stranger right now. I'm so nervous.

[A]

Oh, it's a blind date.

[B]

It's like a hinge date, which is pretty much a blind date because I've never met them before, and I always want to cancel. I don't want to do it. And I literally start to feel nauseous. And so I listen. And there. There was, like, one that was a longer one, and it was like, confidence.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. And it was like, this person's lucky to be on a date with you. That's right. They're lucky. Because I think it was like, some. I had this belief of, like, I don't want to waste their time. What if I don't like them? Oh, so I don't want to waste their time. Or I feel bad, or I feel confident.

[A]

I like this. Yeah.

[B]

And I. And I would. But I would feel bad. My limiting belief was like, I feel bad that I'm wasting their time.

[A]

Right.

[B]

But never thought about my own time.

[A]

Like, I thought you meant the opposite.

[B]

No. Yeah, I felt bad about their time.

[A]

But you should have it as the opposite. Like, I know. I know I'm not gonna like them, and this is gonna be.

[B]

Yeah, well, I was worried I won't like them and I'll feel bad for them. Or I was also feeling bad that they would have to buy dinner and that I wouldn't like them. And so I was feeling bad about that. And so I was always like, could I get myself to like them?

[A]

No. Yeah.

[B]

You know, and always, like, trying to find ways that I could, like, because I have high standards, girl. And so it was like, yeah, you should. Yeah. So it was like, I always kind of felt like they're never going to meet my standard. So then how can I make this? Like, I kept feeling sorry for them. And what that activation helped me do was like, no, like, I get to have this experience of getting ready and going out to a restaurant and having a conversation with a person and they got to get to know me. And, you know, and I provide so much freaking value. I, like, help everyone find their dharma the day, you know, like, and so it really helped rewire and I could really see how it wasn't a meditation, it wasn't me listening to music, but it was like something else that was very empowering.

[A]

So did you feel more confident on that date?

[B]

I did. Now I always listen to it. So it is part of my pre date routine now.

[A]

Yeah, Honestly, we have so many, like, niche activations in the app. Like, I know Thanksgiving is coming up around the corner. I told my team I'm like, we need to highlight our, like, calm down after a family argument activation for the holidays.

[B]

That's a good one. I'm going to have that replaying the whole entire time now. But yeah, it's. I mean, how do you even. We'll get into that. Like, how do you even record all of these? It's crazy. But tell us about how we can help find the right career and entrepreneurial path for ourselves to really have our highest level of abundance.

[A]

Absolutely. So it really starts with that just connecting with yourself, that intuition and just getting the numbing stuff out of the way. Because a lot of us actually have clarity deep down, but we just can't reach it because we're numbing all day long. Think about how many of us are just glued to our phones. We're distracted all day long. Back in the day, people would sit around bored and just think, people don't do that anymore. So I think the first step just to clear the cobwebs before feeling clarity. If you want to become a business person or you want to even get a raise at work, whatever it is that you want to do in your career or your business to get to that next level, the first step is just getting a bit of clarity, you know, like washing your brain a little bit. And I think that feeling of clarity comes so much more effortlessly when you just unnumb. And the things that numb you are things like mindless scrolling and doom scrolling for hours at a time. Binge watching Netflix shows, even binge eating, overeating over drinking, drugs, anything like that numbs you out and it really makes it hard to feel clarity. So the first step is like get yourself in a state of clarity, because that's the first step to transforming anything in your life. Clarity is the first step, becoming as the second step. I know we spoke about this in our previous episode together, but clarity is. Is incredibly important because that really sets the dial.

[B]

It.

[A]

It shows you where you're going to go, what road you want to go down, and then, you know, what actions to take. Right? So that's the first step. The second step is to really tune in to your intuition. What are you good at? What are you bad at? Like, I honestly think that there's so much power in just sitting down with nothing except for you and your journal and putting a line down the middle of the page and writing on one side, things I want to do or the, you know, qualities in the man I want, qualities I don't want in the man I want. Things I want to do in my business or my career, things I don't want to do, things I'm good at, things I'm bad at. Just like getting clarity and sitting down and actually taking a bit of action. So hence the first step, I think. And then the second, if you want to get a little bit more practical here from an entrepreneurial perspective, is really try to find something unique. Is a really big one that I know I touched on earlier, but there's so much stuff out there. There are so many businesses, so many things that you can do. If you could even just take something and make it slightly more unique, that will help you stand out so much more. So that's a really big tip. But you're right in saying that we are launching an entrepreneurship series on activations. There are a dozen incredible activations from writing activations, trying to figure out, you know, your purpose to. When you're facing a really hard business decision and you don't know which way to go, and when you're feeling confused and stuck. Because as you know, as especially a female entrepreneur, it can be messy, it can be hard. You cannot know what direction to take. But at the end of the day, if you keep showing up and you keep doing the work on yourself because our businesses are a reflection of ourselves, right? The years that I have not been feeling my best are the years my business has not grown that much, the years where I am thriving in my own personal development, spirituality journey, it is crazy how much money you can make. So, yeah, that's the number one thing I think, is just being the best you to show up in the best way and to have your business also embody that same energy. You're the one creating it. Just like how when you're pregnant, you want to eat healthy because your baby, you want it to be healthy. Same thing goes, if you're creating your business, you want it to feed it good stuff and, and align with, you know, what you desire.

[B]

It's so true. It really is all, it's all a mirror to ourselves. And we see it's, it's us. Like our business is going to show us our gifts, it's going to show us our shadows. Like, it's going to show us the things that we don't really look at. Like I remember I would like sign up for all these subscriptions for things and forget about that. You know, all these like website builders and plugins and this and that. And then they'd be going for years. And then I'm like, where am I spending all this money from? And it was because I just wasn't, you know, and it was showing me like to be more, a little because I'm very creative. But I needed to like be more organized, like pay attention to things more. Do you have an activation for this?

[A]

Well, what I was going to say is a huge business realization that I had about a year and a half ago has. It has literally transformed my business. And it's a new, like way philosophy, a way of thinking. 10x is easier than 2x. This was a book that a business coach recommended to me. I didn't even read the book, I just read the summary. It's a very simple concept. 10x is easier than 2x. So essentially I used to focus on so many things in my business that had the potential to 2x. My business, like Pinterest, this, that, that. Like I have all the different subscriptions and plugins. It was so, like messy and complicated and took so much time. I was burning out. And then I read this book, my business coach told me about it and it essentially says, stop everything you're doing. Simplify it. What is like, what are the 1 to 3 things that have the potential to 10x your business? If I asked you this right now, what are they?

[B]

I'm already like, you're getting to me, girl.

[A]

Yeah, you made a million or whatever a hundred thousand last year. How could you get to a million? If you made a million, how could you get to 10? Think way bigger than you're thinking and stop doing everything that is not 10x. So now we actually stopped like 90% of the things we were trying in the business. I wasn't even growing the business. And then we Just started focusing on, like, the 10 that's our 10x. And I've doubled since I've. I've had that realization just over a year ago. And this is one of the biggest pieces of advice I would tell anyone in business is 10x is easier than 2x. It is. Because my entire team's focus is on one or two things. It used to be like, 10 things. Everyone was tired. Everyone was like, I tell my team, listen, you know, you can take. You don't have to work for the full eight hours a day. If we need that done, then great. But, like, it's more about the 10x than it is about just busy work. Right. So we've stopped doing all the things that have not that don't have the potential to 10x our business. Like, there are so many things that we try to do because we think we should, because everyone else is doing them, but I can tell you right now, you don't actually have to do them. Anyone listening right now that has a business that feels like there's so many things to test and do, Just try to figure out one to two things that could 10x your business and put all of your energy and focus on that. It'll make it easier to grow. And you're not going to be as burnt out. You're going to feel more magnetic because you're not going to be as burnt out. And things are going to flow.

[B]

And that's really what living your dharma, your soul's purpose is all about. It's like your zone of genius, you know? And your zone of genius is the thing that no one else can do. And it's going to lead to the most abundance.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

And the. The 10x growth. Whereas I was like, yeah, trying to Pinterest and then repost things on TikTok and then do them on shorts and do them. And there when you say, like, what's the thing that would 10x for me? I think if I did, like, two podcasts a week, you know, because it's like, I love podcasting, I love having these conversations, but then I'm like, doing all these other things that I'm like, oh, wow. Maybe it's just like doubling down. So, guys, do you want two episodes a week? Will you really listen to them?

[A]

So I think we do. Let's go. Yeah, we want to listen to Sahara.

[B]

But I think a lot of people, it's like that. I think step one is that clarity of, like, I don't even know what is the thing that can 10x so can you tell us more about or the activation that we can do on the clarity? And do you have like a discount or something that you can give our people or for sure a little free experience or something?

[A]

I can definitely give you guys a discount here. So we can't do discounts on the App Store because Apple, like don't let us. But what we can do is like a special link for your audience if you want. We can do like activations.com SL Sahara. Is that good? Just your name?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Okay. Yeah. By the time this episode is live, that link will be live. And you know, we can also do, we can add your list of favorites, like your favorite playlist or whatever on there. So if anyone's interested in starting and doing the two week free trial, they can also look at what your favorites are and start there. Yeah.

[B]

And we can all do the entrepreneurial career activations together.

[A]

Yeah. The entrepreneurship series. I think it'll be out by the time this episode's out, but yeah, I.

[B]

Actually feel in this own place in my life of I've closed down my coaching institute.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And I had that institute for five years.

[A]

Oh, wow.

[B]

And it was so much of what I share about here on the podcast and have focused on and it was just time for that chapter to close. You know, I was a different version of myself when I started it. And I've just been like, I told you, I was living in Bali and India and Egypt and just going so much deeper into my own spiritual path and the sacred feminine and less in the coaching space. And I just feel like it was a beautiful chapter that I outgrew. And now I'm in this place of like, what's my niche? Like, you know, what is this next version of me? And so I'm excited to actually do these activations myself because I do feel for me, it is this mix of sacred feminine beauty as a spiritual path. Also like the serpent mysteries and the rose lineage and the priestess and seeing ourselves as a temple. And I've been writing this new book that I've been working on this year. But what advice do you have for people that have a lot of different ideas? We're very multi passionate, so I could see like all these different directions my life could go. I'm like, maybe I start like a jewelry line or, you know, this. And so what advice do you have of like, we want to do all these different things, but what's. How can we choose what's most important to focus on now?

[A]

Yeah. So it's easy to say the 10x thing when you don't know what the 10x thing is. So the first step, my opinion, throw spaghetti at the wall, see what sticks. That was my entrepreneurial kind of motto when I was first starting. I had so many different businesses or ventures I was involved in before I ever started acting.

[B]

So how do you know how all out to go? Like at what point are you like.

[A]

It's because what if people back into yourself and your intuition you have there's a balance and it's not the same answer for everyone. That's the thing. I wish I like there was the same answer for everyone. But you need to just keep tuning into yourself and know when it's time to move on and know when it's time to lean in. And. And the more intuitive you are, the more that your soul is going to direct you in the direction that you need to go in. Right. And when you feel connected, the path unfolds itself. When you feel disconnected and numb, you are confused. But taking action is the number one thing that will give you clarity. If you don't know where or what, you know who direction you need to go. And throw the spaghetti at the wall, see what sticks. Try many different things and then lean in, analyze.

[B]

Yeah, I think that it is such a discernment and like we need to know and it's like very, very subtle energy of knowing when to let go of something, when an old career, an old chapter is no longer working and to not let it get so bad. You know, I think sometimes we like try to like force something and hold on for too long, but that energy.

[A]

Repels what you want it repels it. So my whole theory with manifestation is I'm actually not very strict on like these exact situations happening. What I'm strict about is like the feeling that I want to create. And that could mean many different things. So my future self frequency, I call it. I think we spoke about this in the last episode too. My future self frequency is it feels this level of abundance where it's like I kind of feel like I'm in the middle of a castle with a moat around me. Like I feel very untouchable. Like anything I want to do, I can do. Anyone I want to give to, I can give to. Like nothing bad can happen to me from like an abundant financial perspective. It's kind of this like new energy that I've been getting into. And I feel radiant in my health. I feel love every day. I feel so much passion for what I do. And those that like very like specific, unique Frequency that I dial into could mean many different things. It can mean my.

[B]

Can you guide us through how we can tune into what our abundance frequency is? Because I. I liked that visual of the mo. I've never thought of that.

[A]

It's Kate's all about feeling. You know, this. The listeners probably know this too. But it's a really healthy reminder when you want to tune in to the frequency that you desire to call in more, which is. It's very, very simple. What you exude, you attract. Okay? So it is your body inside and around you. Don't think your visualization, feel your visualization, okay, in your body. And it comes from the heart. Your heart is literally the most powerful radio signal to what you desire. So just with whatever you're doing right now as you're listening to this podcast, feel your body, acknowledge it. Feel the energy inside of you, the energy around you. Tune into it, okay? Now think about your future self. The version of you that has everything you want and more. The most abundant, rich, happy, joyful, blissed out, healthy, loved up version of you. Okay? How does it feel to be her now in your body? It's not hard. Just tune into it. Don't overcomplicate it. How would it feel to be who you want to be in this moment, to exude that energy, to feel it inside every single one of your cells? Like you are in this bubble, this energetic bubble of this frequency. And perhaps that frequency has a level of abundance in there that just feels so safe, a level of abundance that makes you feel untouchable, like I was just saying, a moat around you of so much wealth and abundance that is so enough, that makes you feel like nothing can actually happen to you. You're safe no matter what. What is that number for you? It's different for everyone. What if it's the feeling of a yearly income that. What does that feeling give you? The goal that you have financially? What does that make you feel inside and around you? And then you can layer in other areas of your life. Love, for example. How does it feel to be loved by someone that you desire? You might not even know them yet. How does it feel to be so loved up and so in tune with your best self? When in your romantic life, your health. How does it feel to be radiant and healthy and energized every day? Anything else that you're trying to call in, just bring it all. Mix it all into the same frequency inside and around you. Layer it in, and if it helps, you can start with one emotion at a time. You can start with abundance in your body. And then you can layer in health, and then you can layer in joy, you can layer in love. But just feel it, okay? And when you are embodying this, and if you're closing your eyes right now, by the way, try to slowly open them while holding on to this energy. And if you have to close your eyes to get back in, do that. But try to speak with your eyes open or live with your eyes open while you're holding on to this frequency. Because it's important to be able to live with it, right? So many of us in meditation will close our eyes and open our eyes, and we're kind of like the same person we were before. It's really important. That's the difference with activations is that it actually teaches you to live your future self in daily moments and conditions you to be her in these everyday moments. Right? So I hope that little exercise helped make you feel more magnetic. And the trick is to feel that and be that. And then naturally, you're just going to start acting like you're already there. And when you do that, you start to magnetize yourself towards all these different opportunities and even bringing it down. I was reading this thing about quantum physics the other day, and it actually spoke about how, like, particles attract like particles. And it's like thought to myself, we are literally made out of particles. Can you imagine? You know, it just makes so much sense to me, the reality of this, of you being an energetic being made up of atoms and particles. If you are vibrating at a certain frequency that's aligned with health and wealth and happiness and love, it's kind of inevitable that that's what you're going to experience in your life. But so many of us get bogged down. We try it for a day and it doesn't work immediately. And we think, oh, this didn't work. But life is a mirror. But it happens like a boomerang. You throw the boomerang and it's coming back, and then you fail and you quit right before because you don't believe it. But you just have to wait an extra few weeks or days or whatever it is. So just remember that. You know, I. I've been reading a lot lately about this and. And coming back to, like, my core belief system of how the universe works and how the world works. And it's this again, this, like, concept of life is a mirror. And you have to prime yourself to see if something that is unfavorable, if that's happening to you, you have to immediately Think, oh, the mirror slide hasn't adjusted yet. I know that I'm living in a new reality right now. It just hasn't adjusted yet. And just keep having faith, even when it's hard. And then when you can break through and actually maintain that faith, that's when so much abundance comes your way. But you need to be familiar with the feeling. That feeling I just got everyone to do in their bodies. You must get so familiar with it, make it feel normal. Okay? Don't put too much importance on it. Your goals that you have, like, move towards it. Have the intention that this is mine, have the knowing that this is mine, but don't put it on a pedestal. Don't say, I'll be happy when I get there, because that's going to create separation. You need to just be on the same exact frequency and, and, and live it in the moment.

[B]

And that reminds me of the feeling of falling in love. Like when you are in love with someone, you are in that same frequency and that's what makes that moment, moment so incredible. And you replay it in your mind, like again and again because you were like two atoms operating in the same frequency for this moment of time where you're so present with each other and you're like dancing with each other's cells. And it's like the spark that creates the big bang that created the universe. Like, that's why falling in love is the most, like, insane high. Because it's like, it's literally what God consciousness this is, you know, and like, I've had that moment. There's probably like one person in the seating journey, and it was just like, oh my God. And it's like, you know, and that person doesn't want a relationship. And so it was like, hard for me, but it's like, okay, the mirror of like, what's the part of me that's not. Didn't want a relationship, wasn't ready for a relationship because it was like always a mirror. And like, practically we would not have worked, but it was that feeling that now I know is possible that I won't settle for anything less than that, you know, And I feel like that's what these things help us do of like show our bodies. Like, oh, this is what it's like. So don't just settle for breadcrumbs of abundance, of love, of anything in life when you are already operating at that frequency.

[A]

So important though, not to make it overly. To create excess potential when you want something. So. And I actually had this lesson a month ago. I Wanted something really badly, and things were happening that were not so supporting that thing, you know, manifesting. And I said, what's going on? I'm usually really good at this manifesting thing. And I had to realize that I was actually giving it excess potential. Quantum physicist Vadim Zelin talks about this in his massive book.

[B]

So you were kind of hyping up in your mind.

[A]

You're saying, no, I just wanted it too badly. I wasn't comfortable with it. It felt like I wasn't living it now. And funny enough, since I've, you know, I was like, wait a minute. Just like, pulse check. What am I doing now? I just have to be in the energy, and then it'll come. So many more advancements have happened, and.

[B]

That'S even like with.

[A]

With.

[B]

With my story and the dating. It's like that experience of love is not defined with that one person. And it's, like, so easy for my mind to be like, but that person. Why couldn't it work for that person? And it's like, no, that was my love. I have that feeling inside of myself. And now that I know it's possible and it's there, I will magnetize a situation that's not just a moment of it, but to live in it, to stay in it, to not just do the meditation. Open your eyes, and you're back in your old reality, to live like that. And as you guide us through that experience, I was tuning into what does abundance feel like for me? And it's like a cornucopia of, like, fruits, like an altar. Like, you know, in Persian culture, it's very maximalist. Like, our tables have, like, so many fruits and candles and color offerings and colors. And, yeah, we were always making altars. It's. It's like how we celebrate the new year. And so that. And then I was also just imagining, like, a feather boa, and I'm, like, reclining on this velvet couch, and it was like this, like, violet purple. And also it was the feeling of having a home. And I would say if I tuned into the energy of abundance one year ago, when we last saw each other, it was like to be free to travel, to, you know, explore something new. That's because I was, like, in my apartment for a long time, and so I was craving that, going out into the world. And now I've been in Airbnb after Airbnb be, and I'm like, oh, my God. To have all of my things in a place, like, to open the closet and my clothes are there, like, that's what abundance feels like for me. And that's why I feel like it's so important to connect back to ourselves, to do these activations, these practices, because it's a moving target. It's not always the same.

[A]

No, exactly. But the beautiful thing about just tuning into this future self and I was going to get to this point, I forgot to say it earlier, the beautiful thing about being in that future self frequency and having that as the goalpost of what you're trying to manifest means that the actual what is still up to, you know, it's not up to you necessarily. It's still going to be a pleasant surprise. You're still going to experience awe and wonder. So I'm very strict on my future self frequency being the goal.

[B]

What if you have a type?

[A]

Strict on the goalpost. But I'm not on the when and the how. Right. But you, you can have a type and that's fine. But just be open because the more that you control, the more you resist. Right. And I, I'm the same. Like, I have to learn that lesson all the time. Like we, you know, we, we know what we like. We like what we like.

[B]

Do you think when you're doing activations, when it comes to love now?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Let's say I have a type. I, I have a very specific physical type and it's like, I can share with you guys.

[A]

Fine, go on.

[B]

It's like tall guys, they tend to be like Indian a lot. Most of them like North Indian. They've been Punjabi specifically.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Like, it's a specific culture and they have serious, not specific person. No. Because now I found like multiple versions of this person. And so long hair, beard, creative fun. Like, we have always, like a very fun rapport and it brings out my most fun, creative, expressive side. Like, those have been the types of people. And I tried recently dating someone who is multiple people who are not this type, but most recently the same, this Danish guy. I've never been attracted to a Danish person. To be honest, I wasn't even attracted to him. But I was like, you know what? He's nice. He's consistent.

[A]

He fits the box.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And as I talked to him, we had so many things in common. He loves to travel, he likes philanthropy, likes all these things. I was like, wow, this is super cool. But there was no attraction there.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And I thought, you know what? Maybe it can grow over time. That's what they say. Like, and it just wasn't there.

[A]

Okay, my question is stop focusing on all the other Just focus on how your dream man makes you feel. How does your dream man make you feel? That's the only thing you should be focusing on. Don't focus on his height. Don't focus on give a short guy a chance. No, I'm kidding. You know, don't focus on anything external. Just focus actually on how he.

[B]

So not even who they are, but just how they make you feel.

[A]

Just how does your energy feel in the presence of them? And maybe you feel very safe and like delicate and that could translate to him being tall, whatever, you know. So how do you feel when you think about being in a deep, beautiful partnership with this person? Don't think about the looks, think about how he makes you feel. And I'm telling you, Sahara, if you can just tune in to that frequency in your daily life, you're going to attract someone who gives you that feeling and you're going to start noticing it doesn't matter as much about, you know, if he's from this place in the world, whatever it is you just he. If he's going to make you feel a certain way. That Danish guy did not make you feel that way. Okay, so it's less about it. Don't over complicate it. I like to say this all the time. Don't over complicate it. Just how does he make you feel? How does being rich make you feel? Okay, what's that energy in your body that being abundant makes you feel? What about being healthy? Like anything that anyone wants. Anyone listening right now? Anything that you want. Just hone in on the feeling of what it feels to have it and think about what version of you gets to live that kind of life and have that kind of thing, right? And you're obviously so in your magnetic energy. You always have been. Every time I've met you, you are so magnetic. You are so feminine. And I have no doubt that this perfect person for you is already already in transit. He's not even out there. He's already on his way to you. So that's the other energy we got to tune into. What we want is already on our way to us. It's already ours. It just hasn't happened in this moment in time. It's already ours. There's a reality where it's already existing and we just have to tune into that.

[B]

I love that so much. And yeah, it was exactly that. That the version of myself that I love to be in relationship is the one that feels the most playful. I love that version of me when I can be silly and Laughing like, that's who I want to hang out with, that Sahara. But then I'll go on dates with people that. It's like we're very intellectual or we're very, you know, this. And then I'm like, I leave and I didn't feel how I wanted to feel.

[A]

Like I'm bored. Exactly.

[B]

Or like they check. I guess it's like this ideal person for me. I've never met someone that does both the safety and the fun. It can be fun and it's unsafe here. And then it's like, save it as boring.

[A]

You know, it exists.

[B]

It's the both. So I'm going to definitely listen. Do you have some good activations on that?

[A]

Gosh, we have so many. Because you were.

[B]

Can you tell us your relationship journey for a bit?

[A]

I don't know if I mentioned this last time we spoke, but this is like the craziest manifestation. First of all, I got married three months ago.

[B]

Oh, congratulations.

[A]

Thank you.

[B]

And you guys live in the freaking Bahamas.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I'm manifesting to be your neighbor.

[A]

Listen too. You know Ben, my husband and I, and we met just over eight years ago. And on October 12, 2017, I. Because before I launched activations, I would just create my own activations because I couldn't really find anything out there like it. I would find all this cinematic music online, go in GarageBand, mix it with these voice memos I'd record to myself. So it was this whole, like, side project I would do. Anyway, on October 12, 2017, it's still on my phone. I recorded an activation.

[B]

What day is it?

[A]

Today? Today? Yeah. October 20th.

[B]

Okay. I was thinking October 12th. Okay.

[A]

Literally eight years and a week ago.

[B]

Wow.

[A]

I recorded an activation describing my future partner and describing how he made me feel. And I met Ben October 13, 2017. The following day. I don't know, it's coincidence, it's crazy, but I was in this mode. I was. That was like the most recent activation I was listening to. I was living my day. Like. Like. Yep. I. And this is the crazy thing. I actually think he was out of my league at the time. This is before I went through my transformation. He was like the most attractive person I have ever been with. Like, I was literally like the old me before starting to do this work. Listening to activations and doing all this self development stuff would have probably put him on too much of a pedestal, created that excess potential and created resistance, and he probably wouldn't have been my. I honestly deeply believe that that activation that I recorded that I Listened to, listened to on repeat for the following 24 hours. Made it so that I was very magnetic and towards him, and he was magnetic towards me. And I didn't create this, like, overly important. I didn't put him on a pedestal. I felt very aligned with the feeling that he gave me. So we just kind of meshed and then since then, we've been, you know, completely inseparable. But obviously that was very quick. We have so many, you know, attract your dream partner writing activation on the app. We have a whole writing category that helps journaling if you need more guidance. We also have just normal activations for every moment of the day. So a lot of relationship one. By the way, I love how this podcast has been like, abundance and love. Like, it's connected.

[B]

Yeah, it's so connected because I will say I'm living my dream job. Like, I get to be paid to be myself. I get to be paid to have conversations that I love to have. Like, you know, 10 years ago, if you told me this is genuinely how you're going to be making your perfect amount of money that you can travel the world freely, fly business class, go to spas, like, even going through my divorce, knowing that I can just live wherever I want, I don't have to worry about it because I was financially still providing for myself even then. Like, I wouldn't have even believed it was possible. And so because I've walked this path around the abundance and the career and the purpose, I know that it's possible. Just like you're speaking of a relationship right now that I'm like, I've never seen that before, but you're living it. So you're like, no, no, trust me, girl.

[A]

It's getting familiar with the feeling now. Like, make it so you that you were already in this, like, beautiful, you know, safe, playful relationship with yourself, that you're just feeling it constantly and it's gonna happen. It's just the. This work never fails. It doesn't. It's just a matter of time. So just keep showing up.

[B]

I think, like, do you ever have people that they're like, I'm afraid I'll feel it and it won't happen, and then I'll feel let down.

[A]

It will happen. You're just not being patient enough or you're not actually being that person, because the version of you that has it, if you become them by embodying their energy that reminds you to be them and you start acting like them, doing things that they do, it's inevitable it will happen. Just I. The biggest thing is don't be so strict on the how and the when, okay? Because you can't control everything like that. But just believe that what you want, if you can continue to commit to this practice, what you want is going to happen in a way that you might not expect. And don't we want that awe and wonder in the world that's such a beautiful part of being alive is that those like sudden little surprise surprises. I didn't know I was going to live in the Bahamas. I never visualized that back in the day. I had no idea. All I knew is that I wanted to live a really interesting big life and I wanted to do something unique and feel in my purpose and live a very abundant life. That's all I knew. I didn't know I'd have a home there, I'd have a home in London. I didn't know that I'd be with Ben. I didn't know I have the career I have today. But all I knew is that I wanted the feeling the end result would give me. There are so many different things, There are many different men that could give you the feeling that you're seeking. Right?

[B]

I love that you said that because I've been going through this thing around the word manifestation, how it's being used of like, just say you're calling in this thing and just visualize that thing and do a vision board on it and tell commanded from the universe and this and then that thing is going to happen. And I'm like, it made me just turned off from the word. And I love how you're saying of like you didn't know you were going to live in the Bahamas. You didn't know about this career. You didn't manifest this exact life that you're in. But it was the feeling, it was the essence. And I'm like, yes, that's actually the thing that we can actually control. Right. It's like. And I mean, and we're co creating it, we're not totally in control with that either. But like, whereas I feel like a lot of the manifestation world has become.

[A]

All around control, you know, of like.

[B]

I want this and I know best and it's.

[A]

I want it now. Yeah, the universe better give it to me.

[B]

As if the universe is like your little sugar daddy who's going to give you everything. And it's like the universe is like, no, I'm the big dom over here, okay. And you my sub. So. So it's like I gotta just go with the swing sometimes. But Find the pleasure in it. And so, but I love that of like, okay, I want to feel expressed, free, abundant. I can just start feeling that. And then it's like there's all these different timelines my life can take. And that's where the surrender piece comes in of like, I don't know how it's gonna happen now. I'm surrendered to the unknown and be it now.

[A]

That's, honestly, that's, that's one of my favorite, like, sayings that I've kind of like, you know, been talking about on a lot of the interviews I do and online and in the activations. Be her now. Those three words, I think I probably had mentioned it last time we spoke as well. But this is truly such a powerful, simple reminder. If you do anything, if you take anything away from this podcast, whoever is listening, just remember that if you can remind yourself to be her now or be him now, whatever. In everyday moments, whenever you are moving through your day, if you can just remember that and you just step into it, that is 90% of the equation. Because when you start to do that, you start to act like them, think like them, have the habits that person has, and then in turn you're going to create that life, but it makes it enjoyable in the process. You, you can't hate yourself to a life you love. You cannot shame yourself to a relationship you love or to a body you love or to a career you love. You cannot feel so much negativity and then. And finally get what you want. No, it has to be the reverse. You have to feel that joy and happiness and abundance now. And it actually brings what you want so much closer to you so much faster. That's one of the biggest things. So the reminder that I give myself all the time that I used to literally have plastered on a post it note on my water bottle, on the back of my phone, have reminders on my phone. Be her now. It's like my Nikes. Just do it.

[B]

And then that thing happening doesn't even matter so much because if you already are her, if you already are that abundant version of yourself with the feather bow or in the boat or this. And like, that's how you're walking through the day. That's the energy. It's like the variables don't even matter anymore. And then it's almost like the universe now has to like, reorient to fit this new Persona.

[A]

Even thinking about that could turn someone off that wants it so badly because they're like, no, but I want it. Yeah, the truth Is the truth is you will get there no matter what. But it's a difficult challenge sometimes to just remove the importance. Just act as if to be her now, to just be in that flow and expect it to happen. And also, you know, be happy in the moment before having it. We always feel like we're not allowed to be happy until we get what we want. We always feel that. Why? Yeah, it's so sad.

[B]

Don't you want to almost like, like makes us. Holds us like accountable, I guess of like, let's say you want to make six figures or something. Then it's like this struggle feels like it's pushing you into doing it and you're afraid. If I really feel abundance at $60,000 a year, then how will I ever get to $100,000 a year?

[A]

Right.

[B]

So I have to like feel the not enoughness of now to push me into that.

[A]

It doesn't work that way. No, that's not how it works. So we have to remind ourselves when we feel that way. That's not how the universal laws work. It's not it. Because like attracts like. We all know that. So just simply feel more magnetic, feel more abundant, feel more confident because that energy is going to translate. For example, if you, if a listener wants to get a raise at work, okay, we actually have like pre meeting confidence type of activations in the app. So those are really great to listen to. We actually had a user write in last week saying that she listened to before a big meeting type of activation and she said that she got double the amount that she wanted and it was because she came in there, negotiated properly, was confident, and also knew her worth. And a lot of us, especially women, feel unworthy. How in the world do we think we're going to manifest our dream lives when we are feeling unworthy? So you need to train yourself to be in that confident, that clear mindset mode before getting into big conversations, like negotiating a raise, even going for a job interview. And I think one of the biggest things is that like act as if principal, even if you don't feel it. Just it's not that difficult to act as if it's act like you're like a method actress, you know what I mean? It's kind of fun sometimes to just put on, you know, this, this veil of, of confidence even if you're not fully feeling it. And confidence comes from a deep level of self love and also it comes from decreasing importance about what others think of you. Right. So I think confidence is such a big one when you're in a place of trying to make more money for yourself, negotiating or raise your going to an interview, knowing your worth. So just getting your mindset right before those big conversations is so important.

[B]

It's so true. And what you're saying is completely backed by science, you know, of like, there's even math theories that show us that, like, the way that we feel about ourselves is what will be mirrored back in this, like, holographic world that we're in. And if we're waiting for that thing but we don't feel it, it literally cannot happen. And I think sometimes it's like we don't know how to change that state of like, you know, for example, we want to make the money, but we're like feeling the scarcity of where we're at. And like, I. My people's brains are like, I don't even know how to feel about it when I have rent to pay and this and that. And I think that's where these practices like activations and, you know, journaling and all these things come in of, like, you gotta practice it. Like, you, you can't wait. You have to, like, set the tone. You have to do some sort of, like, pattern interrupt, right? Like, I know in the morning when I, you know, often I'll freaking check social media in the morning. I'm not gonna lie to you guys. And then I'm kind of in that. And I'll do my morning breath work. And once I do the breath work, I notice the quality of my thoughts shift. The way I'm moving through the space shifts. Like, I. I'm a different version of myself once I do it. And the days I don't do it, I'm carrying Instagram real consciousness with me throughout the day as opposed to a breathwork consciousness business. And so I love this with the activations of like, I remember even just doing that one before the date of like, oh, yeah, like, I can relax in this. And so I'm excited. And I'm excited for people to share in the YouTube comments too. Like, what? Because I loved that story of she went in for the job interview and she got double. And it's so true. I mean, there's so much around woman we don't know our worth. We're still paid 70 cents to the dollar. And so the new paradigm is woman having access to resources and being able to make money because that is what is needed for our freedom. That is like what true, like sacred feminine liberation is about. It's about us not waiting for a man as the vehicle for the money of like, I need to appease to him and have him choose me to have access to the life that I want in my youth and beauty and sexuality is the price I have to give for that which is going to go away at a certain time and then I'll be replaced, which is like this tale as old as time story that we're told. And to re pattern it of like, no, I get to be abundant for who I am. And it just keeps getting more and more and more abundant. And there's more than enough.

[A]

I have a really interesting kind of visual when I describe changing your brain. Thinking new thoughts, rewiring old thought patterns. Essentially it's uncomfortable the first few times, obviously, when you're trying to think a new thought and get into a new way of, you know, thinking. Think about a potential limiting belief you have. Maybe it is, oh, like, they'll never give me this raise because that's just too much or whatever it is. Think about this thought pattern as a big paved road, okay? That thought in your brain is going down a big paved road. It's easy, you know, to drive down that road. But then if you begin to consciously choose a new way of thinking, one that is more abundant, more magnetic, more confident, more seeing the potential in life, you essentially choose to take the bunny trail. Think next to this big paved road. You have a forest. And you can take this little bunny trail on the side of the paved road to. And that's thinking a new thought. It's uncomfortable at first. You're going to have to duck when there's a branch or move, you know, leaves around to get through. But that first time is the most uncomfortable because the more you take that bunny trail, the more it becomes its own little paved trail and the more it widens. And then slowly, soon enough, one day, if you keep it up, it will become its own big paved road. And the old paved road will have, you know, cobwebs and trees. You don't even want to walk down that road anymore, right? So just understanding that rewiring your brain is possible. Thinking new thoughts and beliefs every day, becoming a new version of yourself, the best version of yourself, the authentic, most real version of yourself that is so possible. And it just comes down to remembering in daily moments to be her now and to think like her, right? And then every time you do successfully, you're taking the bunny trail. So you can ask yourself when you're in a moment of, okay, I could go down this old path, think these old thoughts or I can choose to change in that moment. When you're at the crossroads, choose the bunny trail.

Amazing. We have, you know, over 700 activations in the app. We've released three to five new ones every week. There's so much content. We have a whole team of audio engineers, composers, writers.

Congratulations. Writing a book is like really just such a baby. So I'm congratulating you. We'll link that book below so people can learn more around what activation really is all about. So be sure to check out the link below. It's right there in the description activations.com Sahar I'm so curious to see what you activate into your life. If you love this episode, share it with a friend. This is a really good one, especially if you're like, let's get our money right this year or let's, you know, really find true sacred union, love and whatever it is that you're calling in. This is such a good one to listen to with your friends. Throw in the group chat, all listen to it and hold each other accountable. Do the activations together. Like, like it's the kind of thing that sometimes we fall off the bandwagon when we do things by ourselves. But when you have, like, it's like a book club, like, when you have, like a friend or other friends doing it with you, it's such a powerful way to, you know, share what's coming up for you and also have deeper conversations with your friends. I feel like so many of us were on that, like, kind of complain and coffee train with hanging out with people, and instead it's like, what are you manifesting in your life? Like, what are you calling in? And it allows us to have our friendships take us. Us higher and higher and higher rather than like, be this. This thing that can drag us down sometimes. So this is actually such a cool thing to. To bring into. Into a friendship. So be sure to share it.
