Okay, so I'm so excited because guess what? My paperback of Abundant Ever after is coming out on 11 11. How cool is that? Simon and Schuster said that they picked that date without Even realizing that 1111 is kind of that date that's like known for synchronicity and that's what the whole book is about.

It's free. You can go to Kathy Heller.com workshop and take a listen. Welcome back. It's nice that we're all gathering together. You guys are just continuingly surprising me with how you want to reach for new levels of peace and the presence, right? Your own, your own sanctuary within which you are starting to realize is available to you. Peace arrives every moment at our door through choices, through what we choose. So let's do this. Since we're here, we may as well be here. So close your eyes for a second. Put your hand on your heart. Feel your heart beating. And let your attention land here. Let your attention land in this breath. Feel your breath moving through. Feel the air coming through. Whether it's your nose or your mouth. And feel the full arc of the exhale. There's no moment that's more real than the one you're in right now. There's no place in the future or the past that requires your attention and presence as much as this moment. So tune your dial to presence. It's not something that you have to strive for or earn. It's something that you remember. This is where life lives. And just hear your soul say, I am here and I am here now. And let your self arrive fully drinking in this moment. And just remember that when your inner world matches your outer worlds, peace returns to your life. So just ask your soul, what divine instructions do you have for me right now? Where might I be out of sync? And what's the invitation to return and tune into my alignment? Let your soul direct you toward whatever wisdom you need today to bring you into integrity with yourself. And just hear your soul reminding you, I align with my truth. I align with my divine instructions and set an intention that every action and every choice you make today will be directed from the deepest part of you. What is it that you heard that was here waiting for you to arrive fully in the present? To allow yourself to remember might just be a gentle, soft word. It might be something bigger than that. When you're ready, you can open your eyes and perhaps you want to take out a pen and just jot down a few of the things that just showed up. Even if it was just the feeling in your body that you want to remember. Oh, peace is available when I collect myself and take my attention off of the distraction and bring it to meet me here in this moment. So, you guys, I'm so excited because I just recorded 30 meditations. Those of you who are already in this abundant life, and those of you who just joined, which is so many of you, I'm going to be sending you every single day for the month of June a meditation, an affirmation, and an intention for the day. And they're so good that I just said to my team, I highly suggest that you guys also listen to these. And they just flowed. It was so wonderful. And I have zero doubt that if you show up for that practice called coming home to yourself, that your life will feel as good as it was designed to feel. And in addition to those daily meditations and affirmations and intentions, and by the way, they're all 90 seconds or less, because that's how quickly you can make a quantum leap. It's not time, its frequency, its potency. It's where it is in the register. So if you do those and what we're going to offer, we always offer it. But I'm going to remind you, inside the program, I highly recommend you take advantage of what we have, which is called Zen pals. Like a pen pal, what we call it a Zen pal because that's literally what it is. It's somebody in the program who will keep you accountable to yourself and you to them to do it every day for 90 seconds. And it's highly effective to check in and know, oh my God, someone is going to reach out to me. However we set it up, whether you want to have each other, email each other, text each other, DM each other, but you know that that text is coming before noon, let's say. And you'll get it in because you won't want to say that you haven't done it. Also, you'll love it so much you'll get used to doing it. But in addition to that, I'm going to be live with you as I always am every other Tuesday. And I'll be breaking down for you what will become so routine for you. You'll just be able to do it on your own. But it's just like learning yoga. At first, going to classes is really helpful as you master the poses, but eventually you'll be able to do this. And eventually, some of you just joined Abundance Mastery, which is our mastermind program. Eventually that might really feel like the next invitation. And for some of you, if that is, I'm happy to answer questions about that. But I think the foundation is peace. The foundation is wholeness. You have to have your own attention. You have to be present in the potency of the abundance of what's been trying to reach you. But when you're not present in the wholeness of this moment, there's a constant way that we're turning off the radio. And so we want you to anchor yourself in this practice. The extra, extra, extra special deal is gone tomorrow. So you can get the $97 by joining by Sunday. But if you want it $72, we're basically giving you $72 instead of 97 because we're saying, here's 25 back so you'll go buy this book. Because I do think that this will be a nice thing next to your bed, just to read a few moments before you go to sleep at night. You can also listen to the audio which I recorded. So if you want the $72, use the code book before tomorrow. If you join before June 1st on Sunday, you can get it for $97, which is still an amazing deal because the normal price is 297amonth. And people have been happily in it. So you will. It's not. It's not our first rodeo. You're in good. You're in good hands. It's a good place to tune in and learn that this is not just some vague concept that you can't touch literally. You're going to change your life by building the sanctuary within you. And as above, so below. And as you begin to return and nourish and recharge and hear your soul and actually find potency and equanimity in your day, you're going to be like, oh, my God, I'm tasting this orange. I'm actually here. I feel my feet on the ground. I'm going to teach you walking meditation. I'm going to teach you eating meditation. I was just showing my team. I started teaching. So I worked with this woman named Susan Kaiser Greenland, who taught me how to teach this. She wrote a book called the Mindful Child and several other books. She was actually nice enough to thank me in the book because I was amongst her first students and. And I was studying with her. And then my. I found the flyer for my very first mindfulness class from 2009, and I was like, I really like that picture. And I was like, not a bad name. It was called Opening the Present. So I shared that with my team today. But it's really full circle. It's really full circle because I realized that my next book should be about mindfulness practice, because before you can get into mysticism and quantum jumping timelines, it's like you have to have the instrument, and the instrument comes by tuning in. And how do you tune in? Not in the future, not in the past, not in the mind, not in the story. Deeply rooted at what happens is you show up at arriving at your own door. And what's in the door, right here in this moment, is your wisdom. It's where the compass and the charts live. It's where the divine instructions live. It's where wholeness lives. And we don't manifest from lack. You have to be in wholeness. And so all of this work that I do, you have to tune first the instrument, and then we can play Mozart, but we first have to have an instrument that's right here in tune. And so often we're so firing in fight or flight that we're not even able to play music because we've got to Tune the instrument. So type A1 if you're excited for that. I'm excited to just go back and listen to the ones that I just read. It just was. The ones I've just recorded were so delicious. For instance, I always have some mindfulness thing on my desk. So this is a box of Thich Nhat Hanh cards. And this one says, manifest a miracle. And what does it say? Concentration is the practice of happiness. And then you go, does he mean. Here's what he means. There isn't happiness without concentration. He says, think of it. When you eat an orange, try to practice concentration. Eat the orange in such a way that pleasure, joy, and happiness are possible. Because you look at the orange, you breathe it in, it reveals itself as a miracle, which it is. This ordinary orange is nothing less than a miracle. And you taste it and you smell it, and you enjoy the entire experience. And just like you, you're a miracle of life. And when we're too caught up in the distraction of the mind, we miss the actual abundance, which is the life. The life all day long. And when we tune in here, we actually move into opening our heart. We have such an effect on reality when we do that. And nothing feels urgent. We don't feel like we need things to make us powerful. We feel whole. We feel equanimity. So we have to develop that practice. We can't just think, oh, that's a good idea, and then keep ourselves in the struggle all day long, when there's literally a way to tune in to the peace, the deep peace that lives within us. And you realize everything I thought I wanted, I don't even want. I want this. I want a sanctuary to return to every day. I want a slow morning. I want a morning that feels like prayer, not pressure. I want to drink in the beautiful synchronicities. And I'm always at the right place at the right time. And this is the work, this is what I've been doing that allows me to do everything that has come since without any pressure, without any focus on the outcome, because the moment itself is the outcome, because it's so delicious and it's so deeply nourishing. And you being in that state, by the way, will affect your whole family. I used to teach kids mindfulness until I realized that it was the parents who needed to learn mindfulness. Because when the mom was centered, the whole family was centered. Everyone in the house shares your nervous system. So if we want to affect change in the people around us, it comes by deeply rehoming ourselves inside Ourselves. Oh, it's exciting. Okay, so. And then once you have a deep sense of mindful living, do you understand what comes out of you? Books, songs, podcasts, connections. It doesn't stop because that's where all the music is. It's all there. You think somebody can sit down and think their way to, like, an inspired book? No, it's all a download. Every single person I know was like, oh, where'd I get the idea for this? I was taking a walk. I was. It just flopped in. Right. And so it comes in when there's space for it to come in because there's no baking soda in the water. And if you don't know what I mean by that, I did a whole class on it yesterday. Jennifer, I'm going to call you up in case you want to help me be part of this moderating. And we can have people answer and ask and share questions, whatever feels good for everybody.

My favorite thing to do here, Vanna, you're Sack.
- [16:22]
B
Yeah, Vanna. Also, we're going to do a giveaway today. Some of you were really excited, and I appreciate all of the eagerness, and we're like, how do I get in the giveaway? And so you just had to leave a review for my podcast or my book, which is just always such a gift when you do that. And it helps other people find it is how it works. And so thank you for doing that. And we're going to do a giveaway today. Later. Okay.
- [16:53]
C
This is such a good question, Kathy, that Linda has here. You talk a lot about mystical practices. I'm getting stuck on that word. Can you define what mystical means to you?
- [17:03]
B
Yeah. So the thing is that we are each mystical. And what I mean by that is we're often looking for the mystic outside of us. Like, this person has the answer, this person has the wisdom, but the mystic lives inside of all of us because we're not separate from God. God is infinite. People forget that. Right. People want to limit God. Be like, God's over there. God's only up, not down. Like, God's everywhere. It's just oneness. Right. It's everywhere. It's. It's like that's how powerful this force is that created this universe. You know, science used to believe there was no beginning to time. Time always existed. Now they go, no, there was a for sure beginning to time. Right. And so the big bang now is what everybody's on board with. With tracks. Exactly. With what the Kabbalah says happened, that there was this shattering of this light, and it Kind of depicts the whole thing. There's an amazing book that's written by a scientist at MIT called Genesis and the Big Bang. He was not a person who was into any of, like, connecting with God and through his work. And by the way, I worked for. When I first. First first graduated from college, one of the jobs I had, I worked for a guy who. He studied the work of Albert Einstein and did all these exhibits on Albert Einstein's work. And in those writings, there is so much on this, like, God force, this one infinite field, right? And so it used to be like Sir Isaac Newton and the scientists who were initially helping us understand the world. It was a given that there was a divine energy. And then they were explaining the mechanism in which this divine sort of created the world. So there's so much that tracks on that, which is amazing. But essentially, when you understand that the mystic lives in you, it's you, you are the instrument, and God is the maestro. And so when you tune in to the mystical part of you, you become a portal for that light. I've had really amazing experiences in the last several years where I actually went to a lab at UC San Diego, which is not a random place. It's like a pretty prestigious university. And in the lab, there was a incubator with pancreatic cancer cells, and they were doing a clinical trial where they brought in a group of meditators. These were not monks. These were just what they call super meditators, people who've been meditating for many, many hours. There was a certain amount of hours that they had under their belt, and they went into the room to see if, just by creating elevated consciousness in their energy, if they could change the cells, they did. So they were able to literally change the cells. And I've had on my podcast so many people who gave me so much amazing data about this, but one of the Most amazing is Dr. James Doty, who was head of neurosurgery at Stanford, and he now works with the Dalai Lama on a amazing project. And I think he's been sick, actually, so we should send him our. Our light. But his book into the Magic Chop, is amazing. And then he has another book about manifestation, which is really about wholeness and compassion. But he talks about how in the or, it was uncanny how he would have everybody remember that they are a portal for the mystical. And no matter what they say, he said, we're going to go into someone's brain. So I'm going to need you to suspend your disbelief and get on board with me right now and sink your energy. And sure enough, he has so many experiences that are so beyond description, you can't even believe these things that happen. Because I don't want to get too detailed because it's kind of graphic. But when, when you're doing brain surgery, it gets pretty graphic in there and it's hard to see. Let's just say that if something goes wrong, and he says that it's the meditative force of the collective mystical inside of everyone that has allowed him in moments, to do the divine where he knows it wasn't from him. It was just guided by the field of energy around this person. And he wound up making that a piece of the medical school of Stanford. That was. It had to be taught. If you were going to go into that work, you had to learn to meditate. And I think that's unbelievably powerful if your physician is meditating before working with you, right? So that's what it means to be the mystical. In fact, Deepak Chopra showed me this. He said, he said, doctors don't heal people. They create the environment by which hopefully the person chooses to heal themselves. And so he showed, I was in a small group with him and he showed each of us how we could all. We could all actually do Reiki. We could all actually be available to be an instrument because we all have the same instrument here. Literally an electromagnetic conductor of energy. And he then helped us all see that literally the biology in the room changed in everyone when we all were a portal for that. That's what it means to be the mystic. And it's pretty wild if you live your life not knowing that you have that capacity in you. And we see it all the time, right? Twins will be born and one is struggling, and the other twin just from like love literally brings this other baby back to life. We see it in all of the work. Dr. Emoto and what he did with water and speaking to water and how the cells or, sorry, that the molecules changed. It's just amazing.
- [23:17]
C
Kathy, there's another question Carol asked. I will be centered and free of the baking soda. You were paying attention yesterday. But then a little later, the murkiness will creep back in. Especially since I'm currently in a job that's not really me, just a paycheck. I feel that being present, grounded and breathing is deeply, the natural way back. But what else can I do that isn't a ten minute meditation?
- [23:40]
B
Well, part of it is what we just talked about, right? If you go back a really good episode to Listen to on my show is me and Deepak Chopra. I was just talking about him obviously. But he said that you have to know who you are. Right. Who are you? Right. And people will identify. They're just in the non stop train of thought that says the end of the sentence of I am right. What does it tell you all day long, subconsciously, all the things that are your responsibility, all the things that you are, all the things that you're not. Is most of it true? Most of it's not true. Right. And one of the ways he did this with me is he said, tell me your name and say I am. So I said, I am Kathy Heller. He goes, say it again. So I say it again. He goes, now just say it without your last name. So I say I am Kathy. He goes, does that feel any different? I go, it does feel different. He goes, say that again. I do it. He goes, now just say I am. Does that feel different? So, so much of it is that we have this adaptive self, the self that we created from whatever was going on in our living room, let's say from the time we were two to the time we were 12. And it's a very stressful way to be. And knowing who we really are is knowing that we are nobody, nowhere and no time. Someone, some of the one just really identifying with the truth of yourself, the wisdom within the part of you that always was whole, that always was enough, that came to the world with a divine assignment. That's what it begins with. It's an identity switch. You don't need to always do a meditation when the identity is always, always and always the truth of who you are. So it's moving back into that identity and beginning to make decisions in your life from what you know to be true and unhooking from whatever is, is telling you anything other than the truth of that identity. And that is deep. That is why beginning your morning with having a meeting with yourself should be totally non negotiable to meet with yourself every day. Once you are aware of who you are, then you can find it. You can find your way back to it all the time. Yeah.
- [26:24]
C
Can I give a personal example? Because it might be helpful. Yesterday I noticed that I was feeling toward the end of the day, I was like, oh, I just don't feel like fully my self. And I realized that I didn't get outside like last night. I was like, oh my gosh, I didn't get outside. So today I went and I intentionally, I. I did my meditation practice and then I also went outside, which is something that brings me so much joy. And I feel like a completely different human. All of you can probably feel it in my energy. Like I feel like a whole different person because I noticed. But here's the thing. A lot of times we're living life and we're not noticing. We think that that feeling that I was feeling yesterday is our normal. We think that's it. That's not it. What is it is me going outside and like communing with God and really feeling into using the practices to really feel into myself as well, which I like to meditate while I'm outside. I'll listen to Kathy's visualizations while I'm outside because that's what's best for me.
- [27:27]
B
So.
- [27:28]
C
But the, the much we think that that's, that's it. And it's not that feeling, that resistance, that stress that that cortisol drip is not.
- [27:37]
B
It's.
- [27:38]
C
It's not it. So the practice that Kathy helps us build is really that noticing we, we start to feel like, oh, this is what it feels like for me to feel in flow. This is what it feels like for me to be connected. This is the wholeness, this is it. And it starts to become the normal. So when you're not normal, you notice and you can bring yourself back home to it. And that's the work that we're doing so much because you're human and you're going to get pulled out of it. Is that helpful, Kathy?
- [28:07]
B
I mean it was totally helpful. I just want to add that to what you're saying, that if we want to be healthy, let's say, let's say we want to be in our optimal health, we could think about ourselves as healthy, which would be great. But if we don't brush our teeth and we don't get sleep and we don't walk and we don't drink water, there's no way you have to sleep. You have to physically move your body, you have to drink water. You, you must. It's imperative. So we are functioning most of the time in a cyclone that is not pointing us toward what brings us back to this open hearted portal. Wisdom, channel, energy, wholeness. Like so if we just leave it up to chance that from waking up in the morning to go into sleep at night, we'll do anything other than checking our phone, checking our phone, checking our phone. Getting involved with other people's energy is, is like a tornado around all the things we have to do and then going to sleep before checking our phone. Three more times. That's just absurd. That is what your day will look like now. If you do that every single day and you keep doing it and you do it every day, every week, every month, every day, every week. And it just is the way you spent the last three months or three years or 13 years, that would be a perfect way to feel very filled with everything but yourself and exhausted and depleted. Right. And so that's why I said in the post that I did yesterday, the world's not going to come and tap you on the shoulder and give you permission to have your own peace. Like you're going to have to do that. And when you start building in practices like you all have, you brush your teeth, you take a shower, that's really good for your health. So now you just do it like clockwork. And you do drink throughout the day and you do move your body. You're not sitting all day long. If you did, your back would hurt. So you know to move your body at least a little. Although so many of us sit too often because of the technology. Right. But there are so many practices that are now just part of your life which give you some level of health. Okay. Even though there's a lot that could be improved upon for sure. When it comes to your own peace and your own attention, we have to get to a place where we make a decision that this deserves our attention and we are going to make that a non negotiable in our life that there is some way that we are led back to the practices that feed us, that keep us connected, that bring us back to peace, that bring us back to our intuition. And that's a good thing to, that's a good thing to decide. Just like it would be a good thing to decide if you sign up for yoga and you're like, I'm going to seriously. Because that is a great gift to yourself. Right. And so a lot of people have downloaded meditation apps. A lot of people. And a lot of people have. It's, it's very on trend. Like there is a, a whole wave of human beings who have seen it, they do it, they practice it. And also when something is a new habit, all of the data shows that that's very Herculean to take it on and to be consistent. And so when we hook oursel to something that will keep us accountable, the Data says we're 97% more likely to do the thing just from the accountability of the thing. And so having these little post it notes, let's say in your day because you're in a practice where you're being reminded to do the homework and to do the things. Eventually you're like, I'm just feeling good all the time. Well, yeah, you're getting all that stuff in. You're getting those moments of air and oxygen into your soul throughout the day through these different practices. For me, when I started learning mindfulness and meditation, I spent three years just going to school to learn that, and I was taking it on, like, through a fire hose. But eventually it's so great because when I'm eating, I'll feel the temperature of the food. I'll like, literally feel it, and I won't rush through it, and I'll taste it and I'll hear if it's crunchy. And I will be there in that moment. And when I'm talking to a person, I'll be aware that I'm here to drink in this conversation and not be anywhere else. Or if I'm, you know, standing outside, I'll feel gravity, and then I'll hear the birds and I'll take it in. And I'm like, oh, my God. Every one of those moments is, like, cashing in on, like, treasure. It's. It's just such a deep feeling of wholeness and satisfaction. And so I feel wholeness and satisfaction in many, many moments in my day, I was sitting. This morning, my cat was sitting next to me, and I'm like, oh, my God, he has, like, eyeliner on. Like, God made cats with eyeliner. It's so gorgeous, his face. And I was just drinking in his perfection. Like, totally perfect, Nothing missing and watching him breathe and feel, feeling his fur and listening to him, her, and looking out the window and being like, oh, my God. Life is perfection. It's so good. There's nothing missing. It's whole. It's amazing. I'm so grateful for it. Oh, my God, I'm so grateful for life. Life is such a mic drop. It's like a sound and light show. It's so amazing. I feel that way all the time, and then there's no urgency. I don't have to worry about the outcomes or my feeling of my sense of self coming from how people perceive me, or if something goes right or wrong, it's like I'm just so unhooked from the outcome. I'm already in the outcome. Life is a sound and light show, but it's a practice over time that I've just, like, brought myself back into the moment over and over and over so I can do it. Now, for a sustained period of time, you literally build a muscle in the front of your brain. I used to. We used to do this with children, and we would show the teachers the data that executive function is what actually changes in kids when you teach them mindfulness. That is literally the thing that data shows changes. And what is executive function? It's the ability to sort of be here fully in the present moment, like a drone view for this moment. And why does that help them in school? Because then they can prepare their seat before they take the test. They can actually be present and collect themselves. And so it shows tremendous improvement when kids have executive function. What does that actually mean? It means that there's literally tissue in your brain. Like, we can talk about this in a way that's theoretical, and there is theory to it, but there's also physical matter. Your. Your prefrontal cortex. Just like if I was lifting weights and the muscle literally grew, and now I have a greater capacity to carry more weight because I'm stronger. Your brain changes. It not just neuroplastic changes and different circuits fire and wire together. That's true, but that's. And that's physical, but it's harder to touch. What's even stronger is that there's a. Literally a thickening to the front of the brain, this frontal lobe. When they look at a monk under a fmri, there's. This is, like, super thick. It's like someone's been doing bicep curls. But right here, what happens then is there's just this tremendous override where the brain can't go into the cortisol addiction. Because this. So anchored. This is so anchored. That is just wisdom, compassion, presence, equanimity. It's just firing so strongly that all that little stuff that's trying to get your attention, it's almost impossible because the weight of this muscle is so present. It's, like, unbendable. It's, like, unshakable. That's why I often, you know, people laugh. I'm like, you could take the Dalai Lama to the DMV on the worst day. And he'll be like. And you're like, is he okay? It's like, he's fine. He's totally fine. You know what I mean? Like, I call Rabbi Aaron is like one of these very holy, enlightened people. Like, I'll call him when the world is, like, upside down. And he goes, hi. And I'm like, what? And he's like, just hold the eye contact and see another person in their wholeness. It's like, that's what he does all day long. And he can't be shaken from it. It's like, well, didn't you see that? Didn't you hear that? Didn't you? It's like, it's all amazing. It's like. And it's not spiritual bypassing. It's being so connected to the reality itself, which is really. It's not net neutral. Our world is really net positive. The amount of ways that the world moves into wholeness all the time. All the time, all the time. I mean, we had the worst fire in California's history. And my friend's backyard, her house was burned to the ground. And she goes, look. And she just shows me yesterday, this green, the things that are growing out of the yard. And she's like, it just restored itself. It just regenerates. I'm like, the world is awesome. I mean, it's just. It's just made to be amazing. It's made to regenerate. It's made to always go back into alignment. It just does. The earth goes from heating periods, cooling periods. The dance that the world does and how it does and how people who are in broken relationships, let's say with a parent or a spouse, can find their way to something better and heal. I mean, it's just amazing. So it's, it's. It's something that we can talk about, which is lovely, but it's an actual muscle. And the more you build the muscle of being present, this stuff has such a. A lesser effect on you because it's. It's no match. It's not a match. In fact, if you look at it on a sonic level, when somebody is in a state of incoherence because they're stressed, let's say, or they're firing anger or something that's dysregulating the vibration itself that's coming off of this person. When they put this. When they actually look at the sound waves and they put sand on a tray and it actually creates this chaos. But when a person is coming from presence and wholeness and they measure the vibration of what comes off of that person, the sand that's affected by those sound waves creates patterns. It literally is creative. You literally create from coherence, literally. And there's all this data about when people get together in a city and they lead a meditation retreat, how crime rates go down. Do you know that when birds are singing, it affects the hospitalization rates and the crime rates from birds singing? We just don't recognize that we're in A we're in a snow globe of positive, and it's just always working toward us. And so when we can hook in a little bit and we have this muscle that we're building, it's. It's amazing. You'll be tapping into that, and you just start speeding up your ability to create good in your life. Because it was designed. It just needs something to connect to. And when you're in the baking soda, you can't connect to the net positivity of the way the universe is made. So there's so much to say about it. But the practice is worth everything. It's just worth everything to have that practice.
- [39:58]
C
Yeah. It's such a good question, Kathy. I wonder, in speaking of the practice, there was a question. I wonder if you can connect. What she basically said is that if I'm not having my basic needs being met, then how could this practice help me to manifest? Like, how is this practice going to help me if I'm in that state of, like, fight or flight, just stressed about money, stressed about all of the things of life? How is this specific practice that you teach and the work that you do, how is it going to help?
- [40:30]
B
I mean, this is our basic need. Our basic need is peace. Our basic need is the wholeness within. And there is such quantum possibility at every moment that's brimming that when we move into the energy of the solution, we're available to receive the solution. When we're in the energy of the static and the problem, we can't even perceive. And the solution is right here. It's literally right here. I think you guys have heard me tell this story, but I mean, there's so many stories that communicate this. So many. I don't even know where to begin. But one story that just comes to mind that you guys have heard me tell pieces of there. When I was going through fertility treatment for many years, I went to the same doctor. And so I would park in the same parking garage and walk down the same street in those years when I was going through this process. And there was always the same man who was telling people on the street how beautiful they were, what a miracle they were. And everybody would give him money because he was living on the street. And he was always in this, like, super positive, energetic state that he would just give people blessings like, you're a miracle. Did you know? You're a miracle. Look at me. You're a mirror. And people were just like. People would be. They wouldn't be able to help but smile because he was so. And so one day, I used to give him, like, a dollar. Now I have no cash on me ever. It's like, I'm like, if you take Venmo, I'm like, I need to carry cash. Like, I, I, I, I don't even know where I, where I find cash. I haven't been to an ATM in 20 years or whatever it is, many years. So anyway. But I used to give him, like, a dollar. And one day it was raining, you guys. We didn't have Venmo. Then one day it was raining, and I reached in to give him a dollar, but all I had was, like, $10. And so I looked at the $10 for, like, three seconds. I was like, give me $10. I was like, whatever. That's all I have. And it's raining, so let's keep it going. So I hand him $10, and he's like, thank you so much. The same way he, you're such a miracle. Oh, my God, what a blessing. That's how he was to everybody. And I see out of the corner of my eye that three seconds later, there was another guy who was homeless walking by him. And the guy I gave the $10 to in a second was like, hey, brother, you're a miracle. Here's $10. And he handed it to him. He, like, literally had it for three seconds and then gave it away. And I thought, oh, my God, he's so abundant. Like, he's so abundant that he would rather have the treasure of giving this than the feeling of whatever he could buy with it. He wanted to give it to this guy. So then years later, and everybody kind of knew this guy because he was on this corner all the time. Years later, a friend of mine tells me this incredible story. And I'm listening to the story, and I put together that it's the same guy. So years later, my friend tells me about this guy that he met on this street. And I knew the street. It was Bedford in Little Santa Monica. So that's where he was. He goes, yeah, I met this guy. And he goes. He was always so positive. And one day I offered him a job to clean the windows in my building, and he did it anyway. Long story short, that guy now owns a business, window washing, and he makes hundreds of thousands of dollars, and he has all these people working for him that used to experience homelessness. And I thought, that's, like, the most amazing story. And how did that happen? Because his energy was so magnificent and he was so abundant that everybody used to give him money. Some of it he would clearly give away and people would offer him stuff until one day someone's like, you're amazing. You should come work for me. I'm going to give you a job. And then he loved these other people that he gave them jobs. And then he has this company. I rest my case. I mean, I've heard so many of these stories, you guys, that I'm like, you know, I might like jaw drops. I mean, Howard Schultz, who created Starbucks, I just knew Starbucks. I didn't know until I interviewed him and spent 90 minutes with him alone. I didn't know that he grew up in public housing below the poverty line and had no money. And his father was on disability coming home from the war, and they lived in a two bedroom public housing tenement and that they used to be given food because they had no money for food. Oh, now he's a billionaire. How did he do it? That's a great story. You should listen to that podcast. It's the same story, though, as what I just told. It's a different version of the same story. The story is that possibility is infinite, and we limit possibility because sometimes we get on that, we play that song. But Howard told me what unhooked him. His whole life he was unhooked because his mother used to put him to sleep and say, we live at the last stop of the L train, but it's not your last stop and I know you won't get off here. And he told me that, and I just burst into tears. And he goes, now you're making me cry. And I go, oh, my God, no one knows this story. And he's like, no, some people know it. He's like, I've given a lot of talks, some people know it. And he goes, but maybe not totally. He's like, maybe I haven't talked about it enough. And I'm like, this is so inspiring because everybody knows Starbucks. I think there's a Starbucks on Mars. But people don't know he came from total, abject poverty. And the story is so good. The whole story is so good. You have to go listen to that episode. Our greatest resource is not a resource. It's our resourcefulness. It's our capacity to have a vision. It's our capacity to turn moments into. Into love and energy. And when we do that, we move right into the solution every time. I mean, I could literally sit here for the next thousand hours and I'd be like, let's talk about Dr. Edith Eager, who's a friend of mine. Let's Talk about that. Forget all of the things. I mean, obviously her whole story is insane, right? And then she wrote a book at 89. Best selling book. She was on Oprah for the first time at 89. She's amazing. And I tell you this, all she says to me when I see her is stand up, turn around, let me see the whole outfit. Oh, I like that one.
- [47:29]
C
So cute in her blue suede shoes.
- [47:34]
B
Literally blue suede shoes. I go, Dr. Edith, the shoe. She goes, somebody finally noticed because I came in the morning and she goes, nobody mentioned my shoes yet. I'm like, her shoes are amazing.
- [47:46]
C
Well, and one of the things is whole being in a. In a field of people like Edith Eager and a field of people like you, Kathy, because you attract those kinds of people that we, we hold for each other's possibilities and not holding for each other's limitations. One of my favorite prompts that we do sometimes in our breakout rooms is help her rise. So we're helping each other rise to the possibility. Instead of meeting each other down in all the reasons why it's not working, we learn to be possibilities. Possibilities. That's not a good word because I can hardly say it, but you know what I mean? Like we're, we are really helping each other in that way. Speaking of which, we actually have a call in 10 minutes. We're going to answer a couple more questions. But we do have this abundant life call that we're hopping into that Kathy's going to hop into with us immediately following this call. So if you join, you can go hop into that with us. But just so that you know that's something that you'll be able to come hop into with us if you want to. Where we're going to do some of those breakout rooms as well. Kathy, we do have a. There's one question that somebody asked. They said, if you feel the pull for exploring a side hustle that is meant for me, would you recommend starting with the building blocks of this abundant life before jumping into your Mastery program?
- [49:01]
B
No, I would jump into the Mastery Program. I mean, first of all, here's the thing about what you choose to do. What you choose to do is always, what is your commitment to your outcome? What's your outcome, by the way? We each have a different soul destiny. Right. So my outcome and your outcome are specific and unique. So you have to know what that is for you. But what we choose to do is how committed we are to that outcome and what we think is our best choice in speeding up time. Because what's more valuable money or time?
- [49:36]
C
Time.
- [49:37]
B
Time is so much more valuable. When my dad was dying in hospice last year, all he wanted was time. Time is more valuable. So when we start to glimpse who we really maybe are, and we start to glimpse what really might be possible, wouldn't we rather quantum leap and be in whatever vertical, whatever environment, whatever mentorship we need in order to collapse the time? Or would we rather spend time and save money, but spend time? Because we've made the decision that money feels more valuable than time, when really so often time is being spent and being spent and being spent and we really probably should have invested money to save the time. So you have to know what for you collapses time. But I spent three years in Jerusalem and three years studying with the most amazing teachers. Mindfulness. That's six years. And the money I spent to do that, I mean, it wasn't a small amount because I had to make that whole thing my priority in order to get it done. And I'm so grateful. And. And I do it every single time I feel that there is something that someone has that's the code for me to expand. It's not even a question. It's like, I'm going on that ten day silent retreat. I'm done. It's done. I just commit to the outcome. And me spending the money on the thing is me committing to the outcome. That's it. I'm going. And so it's usually once a year that I go do something like that. And it's always that I have someone in my life who's helping me get to that next level. Sometimes it's a physical training that I'm doing sometimes, but it's never like a book or like a low hanging ticket thing. I want the whole thing. I'm like, I want the intimacy to be this close and personal to this person. And then I want to make the quantum leap because that's it. Because it serves me, because I'm in this for my growth and because once you glimpse what's possible for you, you just no longer want to hold back on who you get to become when somebody fully sees you as yourself. I mean, Jen, you and I were talking about other friends of mine that do this. Like Peter Crone. People meet Peter and they're just like, I don't care what it costs. Like those words. And you have to know who your person is. You know, I have friends who go to every single Dr. Joe retreat and I've done four of them and I've had breakfast with the guy And I've done cool stuff with him and I'm like, go do it. It's worth every penny. It's worth 100 times what you're spending on it. Just go do it, do it again, do it again, do it again, do it again. Keep updating the software. It's like a software update within you that is everything. And I'm so grateful that my circle of friends, we're not in it to be the Walmarts of the world, right? We want to make like potent change right in the world. And the people that I have as my mentors are the real thing. It's not watered down. So I love that this exists. And by the way, until Sunday, and we just opened it up this week because we felt called to do it. We've never opened it up before. I'm sure some people are like, she never offered that before. If you sign up for Abundance Mastery and you do it and you decide to do it in full, which is right now $3,000 off, you get a one on one day with me, which you can do it in person or you can do it virtually. And that's worth the entire amount that you're spending on the thing. So I would do that. If it was me, I would do that. But that's how I am because I go first and the universe responds. And I know that. And I know I'm not confused about how much magic lives within me or in any of you. And so I'm willing to bet on that. And if you think about how people have made the most money, by the way, in their life, what do they do? They take the risk. They buy the building and then they flip the building, right? They invest in their business and then their business grows. It doesn't come without risking. And what do you risk risking? Belief. And who you're believing in. Yourself. But you have to. You have to. The thing I can't do for you is you have to know. But what is the thing that my soul says? It's that because for everybody it's something different, right? For everybody it's something different. And there's plenty of people who can help you make that quantum leap in your life so you can choose what works. I think that we've made this the right size. Where my healer has agreed because of my relationship with him, he comes into Abundance Mastery once a month. I'm not going to give details, but multiple friends of mine have said to me, he is literally changing. He's changing my entire spiritual path, right? Quantum leaps. People are Seeing major changes. So he comes into our program once a month. We have a hypnotherapist that comes in once a month to change your subconscious mind, because I can talk to you right now and your subconscious mind talks to you all day. And someone's got to get a hold of that. So we do that in there. There's also business auditing, where you're going to come in and show me and I'm going to tell you what needs to change in the messaging, marketing and storytelling. What story needs to be changed and what offer needs to come from who you really are and not from the part of you that's playing to everybody's ego, but playing to people's highest self and what the real people want. The transformation, they're willing to pay for it. So what's the greatest thing you could offer? Low cost is a race to the bottom. So we're going to do business auditing. We're going to do spiritual work. It's really the whole enchilada. I would get in by actually had.
- [55:39]
C
A business class or a business audit call just before this. And there is a. There's this, the call with Manu tomorrow. So these are happening.
- [55:47]
B
The call with him is tomorrow.
- [55:49]
C
You're getting business. Honest. There's a call with MANU Tomorrow morning, 9:00am Pacific Time. You can be on that call with him if there is something that is coming up for you right now. Like, let me tell you, talk about quantum leaps. Talk about quantum.
- [56:04]
B
He just sent me also amazing, because we do it. We do a convo. I mean, I work with him all the time, one on one, but we do a convo once, once a month where I tell him what I believe is sort of the feedback he needs to hear from what's happening for the group collectively. And he prepares a specific journey. And that journey is happening tomorrow. And you guys are going to love it. It's basically the replays, too. Jennifer did all the math and she goes, kath, I added it up. And she goes, no joke. The time you spend coaching in there and everyone you brought in to do this work, if people paid for it on their own, it would cost them $40,000. But that's just true. But I spend that like nothing because of the dividends. So you don't have to spend that. Right? And right now it's $3,000 off. And you can do it monthly. You could say, I just want to join for a month at a time and see if I love it. And you can do that and you can get $300 off a month if you do it monthly, or you can join it for the year and be like, where am I going to be in a year? I'm committing to that outcome. And then you get a day long VIP with me virtually, or you can even do it in person. And we're putting together small groups of like four of you and we're going to build these beautiful VIP days where you'll have one on one time plus this group work, but a small, small, small group in person and you can choose and that is worth the cost of it. So, so it's either you do Abundance Mastery, which we're just talking about now, or you get in right now before tomorrow for $72 to join us in this abundant life. After tomorrow it'll be 97amonth. Or you join Abundance Mastery, which is our mastermind. So two totally different programs, but they're both available. And if you join this abundant Life, you can use the book coupon for $25 off. And I'm so ready to rock with you. It's my birthday month. I'm always extra fired up in Gemini. This is me in all my Gemini glory.

B
Katherine wants the code. Okay, so. Yes, Charlotte just told you. Thank you, Charlotte. I love you. So if you use the code book, you can get the 97 month for $72. And by the way, why this is so good is because it's normally 2.97amonth. So you get it for 72 instead of 97. And then if you stay in it, which you will love to do, you can keep your $97 a month. It doesn't bounce back up to 297, which is huge. So you can stay in it and enjoy it. And if any time you want to upgrade to Abundance Mastery, we usually let you put some of what you're spending on the monthly in this abundant life toward what you'll spend on Abundance Mastery. So you kind of get that investment back. So it's really, really Lori's like, it's basically free. So I would say if you're here, you need a permission slip. You need to join that for 72 bucks, go to kathyheller.com join and use the code book before tomorrow. And then if you. And then if you want to join Abundance Mastery, if you join in full, you get a VIP day with me and Jillian. Just DM me so I can tell you all the things. Okay, guys, you're gonna. If you're already in, congrats. If you're in Abundance Mastery, you have a call with Mana tomorrow. If you're in this abundant Life, we have a call right now. So we're gonna go jump in there. And everybody else, our first session starts June 2nd. We are going to begin, and you're going to get your first meditation sent to you June 1st. I'm so excited. Love you guys.
