  1. 0:00You don't meditate to get good at
  2. 0:01meditation. We meditate to get good at
  3. 0:02life and part of being good at life is
  4. 0:05providing for a family and having
  5. 0:08partners and having great sex. Like this
  6. 0:10is so to like to deny yourself
  7. 0:12abundance, to deny yourself sexuality
  8. 0:14does not make you closer to God.
  9. 0:18Welcome to the Deja Blu podcast where we
  10. 0:21believe that living a life of magic can
  11. 0:23be the default.
  12. 0:25Join us each week as we playfully and
  13. 0:27authentically dive into the mysteries of
  14. 0:29life and explore what it truly means to
  15. 0:31be human.
  16. 0:32From spirituality, wellness and all
  17. 0:34things taboo, we don't hold anything
  18. 0:37back. So without further ado, let's let
  19. 0:39the magic unfold. Hello beautiful
  20. 0:42humans. Welcome back to another episode
  21. 0:44of the Deja Blu podcast. I have had
  22. 0:49an outrageous
  23. 0:51blast with this woman over the past four
  24. 0:54or five days since she has graced this
  25. 0:56entire house, the queendom, with her
  26. 0:58presence, her light, her magic, her
  27. 1:01enthusiasm and excitement for life, her
  28. 1:05intricate embodied storytelling that
  29. 1:07leaves me on the edge of every single
  30. 1:09word of what it is that she's sharing,
  31. 1:11her empowerment of the permission that
  32. 1:14she has given herself to breathe her
  33. 1:16magnificent into the space without
  34. 1:18saying sorry, while also maintaining a
  35. 1:21very deep level of empathy of her
  36. 1:22spatial awareness. That is such a gift
  37. 1:25in itself. So just by being in the
  38. 1:27presence of this woman, I have met
  39. 1:30deeper parts of myself that she doesn't
  40. 1:31even know about what we'll uncover on
  41. 1:33the podcast, saving the juicy golden
  42. 1:35nuggets for all of y'all. And uh
  43. 1:38before we even do this podcast, um there
  44. 1:40was like something that I was feeling on
  45. 1:42my heart and we just raged it out to a
  46. 1:44song and anytime Okay, so here was that
  47. 1:47was another thing. We had a dance party
  48. 1:49at the house the other night and
  49. 1:53for me dancing is such an incredible way
  50. 1:56of being able to get to know somebody's
  51. 1:57soul without a single word.
  52. 1:59The way that we choose to move our body.
  53. 2:01Now it's not about actually being a
  54. 2:03great dancer. It's more so the
  55. 2:04permission we give ourselves to feel.
  56. 2:07And that is very strong testament to me
  57. 2:09around
  58. 2:11the permission we give ourselves to feel
  59. 2:12in life in general outside of the dance
  60. 2:14floor.
  61. 2:14And so that shows me the amount of work
  62. 2:16that has internally been done to meet
  63. 2:19one's self, one's own edges and one's
  64. 2:22entirety of all of our emotions. And so
  65. 2:25when I had Emily Fletcher come meet me
  66. 2:27on the dance floor the other night,
  67. 2:29I'll tell you I'm feeling it. I'm
  68. 2:30vibing. I'm having a great time. And all
  69. 2:32of a sudden enters Emily stage right.
  70. 2:34And she just locks eye dead looks at me
  71. 2:37dead in the eye and she get down and up
  72. 2:40and sideways and everything in between,
  73. 2:42knee sliding across the room, riding
  74. 2:44brooms, doing performances, laughing,
  75. 2:46dancing. And the liberation that is
  76. 2:49flying off of you is just these
  77. 2:51invisible permission slips that just
  78. 2:53rest so deeply in the core of my being
  79. 2:55that they last so much longer than the
  80. 2:57present moment. And I've received so
  81. 3:00much medicine from the essence of who
  82. 3:01you are. So that's like my personal
  83. 3:02experience of your radiance and I've
  84. 3:06been able to witness the
  85. 3:08empowerment, the transmissions, the
  86. 3:10activations, the liberation of shame and
  87. 3:12guilt, what you've done for group
  88. 3:13settings at Burning Man and there's just
  89. 3:15been different spaces that I've
  90. 3:16witnessed your
  91. 3:18uh your activations at Arcardia
  92. 3:22uh and then it's just been these last
  93. 3:24few days that I've really actually got
  94. 3:26to know you you and you are consistently
  95. 3:30epic across the board. So it's not just
  96. 3:32who you are when you're standing on
  97. 3:34stage, but it's also who you are from
  98. 3:35the moment you wake up and we're doing
  99. 3:36our saunas and our cold plunging and all
  100. 3:38of the beautiful things in between. And
  101. 3:40so that's outside of my own personal
  102. 3:41experience, you're also a
  103. 3:43incredible author,
  104. 3:45um writer, entrepreneur. You guide
  105. 3:48hundreds of thousands of people around
  106. 3:50the world into a deeper
  107. 3:51Ziva meditation practice. Uh you host
  108. 3:54retreats all around the world. You have
  109. 3:57introduced so many people into deeper
  110. 3:59levels of sec magic and the liberation
  111. 4:00beyond their shame and their guilt. Uh
  112. 4:03you're also a mother of incredible son
  113. 4:05Jasper who is a soon-to-be
  114. 4:08paleontologist.
  115. 4:09Little known fact.
  116. 4:12And all around incredible sister, lover,
  117. 4:14muse and inspiration and mother to all
  118. 4:17so many of us. So Emily Fletcher,
  119. 4:19welcome to the Deja Blu podcast. I I
  120. 4:21don't think I've ever cried so many
  121. 4:23times in an intro. That was like three
  122. 4:25tear jerkers. Wow, Blu. Being seen by
  123. 4:29you is such a gift. I admire you so
  124. 4:32much. Your impeccability of spirit, your
  125. 4:36profundity of imagination and now like
  126. 4:38your playfulness that I am just starting
  127. 4:41to get to know is such an honor to be in
  128. 4:44the presence of. And so thank you that
  129. 4:45mirror, that reflection really means a
  130. 4:47lot to me. Thank you.
  131. 4:50It's been so It really is um rare and
  132. 4:53also such a
  133. 4:55such a beautiful gift to be met by a
  134. 4:56sister and not only be met by a sister,
  135. 4:58but be celebrated and cherished and seen
  136. 5:02and inspired by. And something that
  137. 5:04really stands strong for the way that
  138. 5:06you weave in spaces is that you are a
  139. 5:08curious person. You're interested.
  140. 5:10You're interested to ask really great
  141. 5:12questions. You listen intently to the
  142. 5:14response and then you reflect the beauty
  143. 5:15that you see, which I believe is a
  144. 5:16three-step process to melt the heart of
  145. 5:18anybody. And I don't even know if you
  146. 5:20knew the context of those three steps,
  147. 5:22which dropped in for me a few years ago,
  148. 5:23but the way that you weave in the space,
  149. 5:25I'm like, oh, she's picked up on that.
  150. 5:27Even though probably not have the
  151. 5:28context for it, but the way that you
  152. 5:30enter space, there's two ways, right?
  153. 5:32You're a very interesting human.
  154. 5:34However, there's two ways that we can
  155. 5:35present to the world. We can be an
  156. 5:37interesting human or an interested
  157. 5:39person.
  158. 5:40And I found that sometimes when people
  159. 5:42are very interesting, they then just
  160. 5:45talk about themselves all the time
  161. 5:46because they're interesting, right?
  162. 5:48There's a lot of stories to share.
  163. 5:50However, the magnetism is activated in
  164. 5:53the presence of somebody that's a very
  165. 5:54interesting person, but they're
  166. 5:55interested.
  167. 5:56And you 1,000%
  168. 5:59are an interested human.
  169. 6:01And so It's like how do you get to be
  170. 6:04interesting without being interested?
  171. 6:07I mean, well how do you get to be
  172. 6:08interesting without being interested?
  173. 6:10Interested, right? Like you have to you
  174. 6:11have to absorb the stories of others.
  175. 6:13You have to absorb the knowledge of
  176. 6:14others. You have to absorb the
  177. 6:15transmissions of others in order to
  178. 6:17become interesting.
  179. 6:18Right. Yeah. Uh
  180. 6:19100%. Yeah, I didn't even like really
  181. 6:21lace the two together, but that makes
  182. 6:23perfect sense. If you genuinely are an
  183. 6:25interested person, then it's because
  184. 6:27it's a byproduct of listening deeply,
  185. 6:29which is I think that's what you've
  186. 6:30essentially done for so much of your
  187. 6:32life as you've absorbed, listened,
  188. 6:33learned and then created your own
  189. 6:35version of and created your own
  190. 6:36fingerprint of. And also from the
  191. 6:38stillness of of your own latent genius,
  192. 6:41you've then been activating places and
  193. 6:43and and and pieces within others. And I
  194. 6:46There's something that I just really
  195. 6:47want to dive into straight off the bat.
  196. 6:50Is
  197. 6:52the way that you weave in the world hold
  198. 6:53doesn't feel like it holds much shame
  199. 6:55and guilt. Mm. And specifically around
  200. 6:57your eros, your pleasure, your pleasure
  201. 6:59practice of sex magic and what you've
  202. 7:01been speaking into recently.
  203. 7:03And I'm curious what your journey has
  204. 7:05looked like for you around the
  205. 7:07liberation of your own shame and your
  206. 7:08guilt specifically around your eros and
  207. 7:10your sensuality because the way that you
  208. 7:11walk into a space and the way that you
  209. 7:13claim your presence and the way that
  210. 7:14you're not apologizing for your presence
  211. 7:16is so inspiring to me and also
  212. 7:19illuminating where I'm still kind of
  213. 7:21shrinking a little bit.
  214. 7:22Mm. Um and so I'd love to hear a little
  215. 7:23bit about your journey. If Surely you
  216. 7:25didn't come out I mean maybe you did
  217. 7:27come out of your mama's womb just
  218. 7:29claiming that [ __ ] but like there must
  219. 7:30have been like an unlearning and a
  220. 7:31relearning along the way. Yeah, so
  221. 7:33actually the funny that you bring up
  222. 7:34coming out of my mother's womb because
  223. 7:36that my mom jokes that I was born on
  224. 7:38stage. There was actually like she was
  225. 7:40at a teaching hospital and there was
  226. 7:41like a whole team of nurses that that
  227. 7:43watched my birth. And it was actually
  228. 7:45recorded.
  229. 7:48And
  230. 7:50and and so but it was actually very
  231. 7:51dramatic cuz I was three weeks
  232. 7:53premature. I had a heart murmur and I
  233. 7:54had jaundice and they told my mom I was
  234. 7:56going to die.
  235. 7:57And and there was an audio tape of it,
  236. 7:59like a cassette tape cuz I'm
  237. 8:0143 years old. I was born in 1979. So
  238. 8:03they made a cassette tape recording of
  239. 8:05it. And I remember listening to it when
  240. 8:07I was a little girl and feeling like I
  241. 8:09probably should not be listening to this
  242. 8:11right now. Like I didn't really know
  243. 8:12what trauma was, but I was like, this is
  244. 8:14probably not a good idea to listen to my
  245. 8:17own birth, but I did. Um but I then I
  246. 8:20grew up Southern Baptist. Like I'm from
  247. 8:21Tallahassee, Florida. I grew up Southern
  248. 8:23Baptist and there was a lot of shame
  249. 8:25around sexuality, a lot of you know, we
  250. 8:28don't talk about that. Self pleasuring
  251. 8:30is a sin. It's just for a man and a
  252. 8:32woman. You only have sex after you're
  253. 8:33married. Like all of that. You know, the
  254. 8:35stuff that most people are swimming in,
  255. 8:37that conditioning and indoctrination
  256. 8:39that most of the world is swimming in to
  257. 8:41some degree.
  258. 8:42And I remember even at a young age like
  259. 8:44having this sweaty man in a khaki suit
  260. 8:47yelling from the pulpit telling me what
  261. 8:49I shouldn't do with my body and being
  262. 8:50like, that is not it.
  263. 8:52And then I got to college
  264. 8:54and I started studying musical theater
  265. 8:56cuz that was when I felt the closest to
  266. 8:57God. And so I was singing and dancing
  267. 8:59and acting.
  268. 9:01I loved it so much, but what I loved was
  269. 9:03actually the unity that was created in
  270. 9:05the people. Right? Like being on stage
  271. 9:07with a group of people dancing in
  272. 9:09unison, singing in harmony, all working
  273. 9:11towards this creative goal. Like that
  274. 9:14felt like divine play to me. But the
  275. 9:17thing I would always get cast as was the
  276. 9:18[ __ ] Like I would joke that I I'm so
  277. 9:21diverse, I could be an English [ __ ] a
  278. 9:22French [ __ ] a German [ __ ] an
  279. 9:24American [ __ ]
  280. 9:25Oh, the 50 shades of [ __ ]
  281. 9:28And so even though I I it was a
  282. 9:30character, it was roles that I was
  283. 9:31playing when I was dancing in my
  284. 9:33sexuality then. And then I got on
  285. 9:34Broadway. And I was on Broadway for 10
  286. 9:36years and I became world-class
  287. 9:39at making people want me.
  288. 9:41Mm.
  289. 9:42I was professional at knowing how to be
  290. 9:45wanted, to move every part of my body,
  291. 9:47move my eyes, like bring people in, be
  292. 9:51like the embodiment of
  293. 9:54this It's showgirl, right? And but I did
  294. 9:58not know want.
  295. 9:59I did not know my own desire until very
  296. 10:03recently.
  297. 10:04And so, you know, I was very much
  298. 10:06sitting quietly in a chair teaching
  299. 10:08meditation, speaking about neuroscience,
  300. 10:10framing the stuff as a high-performance
  301. 10:12tool, which I'm very proud of, but then
  302. 10:142 years ago, almost 3 years ago, my life
  303. 10:17really radically changed when I I asked
  304. 10:20for a divorce, and then 3 weeks later I
  305. 10:22met Layla Martin, your roommate, my now
  306. 10:25best friend, world-famous tantra
  307. 10:27teacher,
  308. 10:28and my cosmic lover Adam, and then a few
  309. 10:32months later I moved in with Regina
  310. 10:33Thomashauser, aka Mama Gina.
  311. 10:36And so all three of these people in my
  312. 10:38life have been these huge liberating
  313. 10:40forces, you know, just I mean, talk
  314. 10:42about walking permission slip, you know,
  315. 10:44like that they've dedicated their whole
  316. 10:46lives to deconditioning themselves and
  317. 10:47deconditioning hundreds of thousands of
  318. 10:50other people. And so I've had the the
  319. 10:52very good fortune of of intimately
  320. 10:54weaving with these people, and anything
  321. 10:56that was left,
  322. 10:59any shame, any conditioning, any stories
  323. 11:01left have really um transmuted over
  324. 11:04these past few years. So it's like I
  325. 11:05already knew how to tap into that eros,
  326. 11:08right? Like if I've been dancing with it
  327. 11:09my whole life. To be on stage and to be
  328. 11:10magnetic, you have to play with sexual
  329. 11:12energy, even if you're not doing it
  330. 11:13consciously. Like I watched Hugh Jackman
  331. 11:16in a Broadway show a few months ago, and
  332. 11:18I was like, oh, like now that I can see
  333. 11:20it, now that I can see sexual energy,
  334. 11:22like this man is a masterful. He's
  335. 11:25basically making love to 3,000 people at
  336. 11:27the same time energetically.
  337. 11:29That's why he's so charismatic. But I
  338. 11:32don't know that I consciously could see
  339. 11:34that before.
  340. 11:35So it's been this combo platter of like
  341. 11:37natural aptitude to tap into it,
  342. 11:41and then really good fortune of calling
  343. 11:44in and magnetizing great people.
  344. 11:47And
  345. 11:48I still have a lot of work to do.
  346. 11:50I still have a lot a lot of work to do.
  347. 11:55Well, from my own personal experience
  348. 11:56witnessing you guiding others in their
  349. 12:00self-pleasure practice and um activating
  350. 12:03the the frequency of pleasure in a group
  351. 12:06environment. So I come in
  352. 12:08from this
  353. 12:10I don't know, British boarding school
  354. 12:12upbringing, and you know how the Brits
  355. 12:14are, and really yeah, you did stiff
  356. 12:16upper lip. That that goes that goes with
  357. 12:18your your monogamous partner and
  358. 12:21everything else. That's not allowed,
  359. 12:23slut-shaming slut-shaming
  360. 12:26and um being called a [ __ ] and all
  361. 12:28these things like really basic stuff was
  362. 12:30just sort of like my childhood. So
  363. 12:32then when those labels are no longer
  364. 12:35present, well, who becomes the
  365. 12:37perpetrator? I do. So I didn't realize
  366. 12:41how much of a cage that I had placed my
  367. 12:43eros in until I was in the presence of
  368. 12:45you and Layla and Regina and being able
  369. 12:48to have the blessing of being able to
  370. 12:50witness you all, and then the way that I
  371. 12:52you've entered into my reality has been
  372. 12:55I mean, you're wearing you know, like
  373. 12:57like fully dialed, you're leading a
  374. 12:59whole group of individuals, like full
  375. 13:01power activation,
  376. 13:03um witnessing you on Aubrey Marcus'
  377. 13:05podcast and talking about sex magic,
  378. 13:07um and so from my perspective, you've
  379. 13:09been able to gift me what what Layla and
  380. 13:13Regina have gifted you, and so um the
  381. 13:16power of a woman that has reclaimed her
  382. 13:18sensual and sexual energy is A going to
  383. 13:21trigger
  384. 13:22and B going to liberate.
  385. 13:24But the trigger ultimately is that to
  386. 13:25teach us something. So I would love to
  387. 13:28hear a little bit about your journey
  388. 13:29around So in this reclamation, of
  389. 13:31course, there's an acknowledgement that
  390. 13:33there's so much more also to to go, and
  391. 13:35at the same time,
  392. 13:37how do you navigate the projections of
  393. 13:40shame and guilt that is placed on you
  394. 13:42because
  395. 13:44you're a powerful woman that's claiming
  396. 13:46her worth.
  397. 13:47So that's also going to bring up the the
  398. 13:49forces of jealousy and denial within
  399. 13:51others.
  400. 13:52What
  401. 13:55I almost
  402. 13:57I'm a little afraid to speak this
  403. 13:59because I don't want to jinx it, but I
  404. 14:02have had like the most charmed path so
  405. 14:06far.
  406. 14:08Like it has just been like golden
  407. 14:09footstep after golden foot. Like the
  408. 14:11path just keeps illuminating itself, and
  409. 14:13I don't know if this is outrageous
  410. 14:15bravery or just blind naivete,
  411. 14:18or if if the world is actually just
  412. 14:21changing frequencies and if that we are
  413. 14:23really on on the precipice of this new
  414. 14:26sexual revolution, which I think is
  415. 14:28actually the truth. Because I've always
  416. 14:30I've always been able if I have one
  417. 14:32superpower, it is being able to feel
  418. 14:35like what's next, like what's about to
  419. 14:37be the next thing. Like I started the
  420. 14:39world's first online meditation training
  421. 14:40in 2013.
  422. 14:42I had spent 10 months building it. I
  423. 14:44spent $25,000 building this course,
  424. 14:46which was more money that I had made in
  425. 14:48a year,
  426. 14:49and and I I 6 weeks leading up to it,
  427. 14:51and I did a call, my first sales call,
  428. 14:53and three people signed up.
  429. 14:56Like I made like $700
  430. 14:58on a $25,000 investment, and I was like,
  431. 15:01oh, no. I've made a horrible mistake.
  432. 15:04And my ex-husband, much to his credit,
  433. 15:06was like, stay in the game, stay in the
  434. 15:08game, like it's just not yet, not yet.
  435. 15:10And I feel like we're just And so I had
  436. 15:12that moment that moment with meditation,
  437. 15:14where like, why isn't everyone doing
  438. 15:15this? And now everyone is. Like
  439. 15:17meditation is so mainstream, there's
  440. 15:19millions of apps, there's millions of
  441. 15:20YouTube channels. And I feel like we're
  442. 15:22there with sacred sexuality. I feel like
  443. 15:25we're just on the precipice of people
  444. 15:26really starting to learn that we can use
  445. 15:28the most creative force that we have in
  446. 15:30order to manifest. And so to be a bridge
  447. 15:34in that feels like my role to play in
  448. 15:36this. So I've not actually received too
  449. 15:39much shame or blowback, but I've also
  450. 15:41been so far a little under wraps, you
  451. 15:44know, like I've been keeping it a little
  452. 15:46close to my chest sort of until the
  453. 15:48release of this new podcast that I'm
  454. 15:50birthing in the studio, and um and so I
  455. 15:54don't know if that blowback is coming,
  456. 15:56or if my ability to articulate sort of
  457. 15:59triggering esoteric concepts in a way
  458. 16:01that is both attractive and accessible
  459. 16:03is is um
  460. 16:05protecting me from that. So remains to
  461. 16:08be seen. Regina keeps warning me. She's
  462. 16:09like, Emily, like, are you sure? Are you
  463. 16:12sure you want to do this? You're going
  464. 16:13to get your heartbroken again and again
  465. 16:15and again.
  466. 16:16So far it's been like sunshine and
  467. 16:19roses.
  468. 16:21I 1,000% um I'm picking up on that piece
  469. 16:24around the depth of your claiming and
  470. 16:28the aligned essence of your belief
  471. 16:31is therefore not creating it to be as
  472. 16:33much of a prominent vibrational um a
  473. 16:37match to
  474. 16:40those that are questioning. Yeah. But if
  475. 16:43there's any aspect of our psyche, for
  476. 16:44example, like if we start a new program
  477. 16:47and we price it at X amount, and then
  478. 16:50there's this little voice inside of my
  479. 16:51head being like, who the heck do you
  480. 16:53think you are? How can you get away with
  481. 16:55that? What are you doing? So then I then
  482. 16:58for example, put it out, and then all of
  483. 17:00a sudden, who do you think you are?
  484. 17:03AND THEN IT'S LIKE, OH, YEAH, WAIT, WHO
  485. 17:06AM I? YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M going to give
  486. 17:07it for free. I'm going to pay you.
  487. 17:10You take my course, I'm going to pay
  488. 17:11you.
  489. 17:12Exactly, because it it's a match to the
  490. 17:14part within our own psyche. However,
  491. 17:16that's been one of the consistent things
  492. 17:18that I felt with your presence is this
  493. 17:20this depth of claiming
  494. 17:22that I'm just so fascinated by, inspired
  495. 17:26by, activated by, and um
  496. 17:29giving me the opportunity to look at
  497. 17:30myself of where could I claim a little
  498. 17:32bit more. Um I would love for you to
  499. 17:35just share
  500. 17:37you know, you talk about utilizing
  501. 17:39pleasure
  502. 17:40as an opportunity to manifest what you
  503. 17:42want to create. Love for you to break
  504. 17:43down what that you're talking about,
  505. 17:45right? I'm coming from like I I
  506. 17:47understand because I've also like been
  507. 17:49in the parameters of of these incredible
  508. 17:51what we call sex witches.
  509. 17:54Uh however, for those that are listening
  510. 17:55and tuning in that that got this on
  511. 17:57their headphones and they're on a walk
  512. 17:58with the dog, um and if you're on a walk
  513. 18:00with your dog with the headphones on,
  514. 18:02this one is for you.
  515. 18:04Um what is this? What is What is the
  516. 18:07ability to utilize that sexual sensual
  517. 18:09energy
  518. 18:11to
  519. 18:12direct it into a position that is placed
  520. 18:15with that attention and intention. Yeah.
  521. 18:17So I've been teaching manifesting for a
  522. 18:19long time, right? Like that's Ziva. It's
  523. 18:21mindfulness, meditation, and
  524. 18:22manifesting. And there are some key
  525. 18:24ingredients in order to be an effective
  526. 18:26manifestor. You have to have a clear
  527. 18:28intention, you have to have a burning
  528. 18:30desire, you want to take inspired
  529. 18:32action, detachment, like these are all
  530. 18:34the key ingredients. So when you start
  531. 18:36to add pleasure to that equation, you're
  532. 18:38basically supercharging
  533. 18:41the manifestation that's already in
  534. 18:42place. So
  535. 18:44to be very honest, manifesting is an
  536. 18:46advanced technique. I actually I
  537. 18:48at Ziva, I have people learn to meditate
  538. 18:50first to tap into the unmanifest first,
  539. 18:53to remind themselves that they are
  540. 18:55actually God pretending to be human
  541. 18:56first, to flood their brains and bodies
  542. 18:59with dopamine and serotonin, so that
  543. 19:00they have access to that visceral
  544. 19:02reality, that their bliss is only ever
  545. 19:04found inside. We do all of that first.
  546. 19:07Because if you're trying to manifest
  547. 19:09from a place of lack or need or less
  548. 19:11than, then we get into the I'll be happy
  549. 19:12when syndrome, and we start to have a
  550. 19:13death grip on our desires, and we think
  551. 19:15that those desires will make us happy.
  552. 19:17And that is um a recipe for not
  553. 19:19manifesting. It's a recipe for
  554. 19:21frustration.
  555. 19:22And so if if from prayer or art or
  556. 19:26however it is that you remind yourself
  557. 19:28that you are the ocean inside of the
  558. 19:30wave,
  559. 19:31um from that place, we simply ask the
  560. 19:33question like, what would I love?
  561. 19:36What would I love?
  562. 19:38And then we listen.
  563. 19:40We listen. What would I love? Not what
  564. 19:41do I need? Not what do I want? Not
  565. 19:43what's going to look good on Instagram,
  566. 19:44but like, what would my soul love?
  567. 19:47And then there might be something
  568. 19:48standing in the way of that, some some
  569. 19:50disbelief, something just a funk. And
  570. 19:52then we want to clear the channel,
  571. 19:54right? So that might look like
  572. 19:56a rage journal or punching a pillow or
  573. 19:58doing an angry dance like we just did or
  574. 20:01having a good cry. Like anything to just
  575. 20:03open up the vessel, clear the channel.
  576. 20:06Um reclaiming your pleasure. For for so
  577. 20:08many they've been shamed to think that
  578. 20:09it's not theirs, that it's wrong or
  579. 20:11dirty or bad. So some sort of a
  580. 20:13reclamation practices might be dancing
  581. 20:14in front of a mirror.
  582. 20:16Um and then from that space of sort of
  583. 20:19clarity on the dream, a clear channel,
  584. 20:22then we start to build the charge.
  585. 20:24Which you don't have to do this with
  586. 20:26sexual pleasure, right? Like you could
  587. 20:27do it with breath, you could do it with
  588. 20:29dance.
  589. 20:30Um you could do it simply by like, you
  590. 20:31know, massaging your hands if you like.
  591. 20:33It's just easier honestly if you are
  592. 20:36pleasuring yourself because it's such a
  593. 20:37direct access to so much
  594. 20:41like so many powerful internal
  595. 20:44chemicals.
  596. 20:45Dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin,
  597. 20:48endorphins, norepinephrine, which again
  598. 20:50are all of the chemicals that we need to
  599. 20:52train our body that our dream is safe.
  600. 20:54Mhm. So many of us are scared of our
  601. 20:56dreams. And so when the opportunity
  602. 20:58comes, which it will because you
  603. 20:59wouldn't even have the desire if it was
  604. 21:01not already on the way, right? The
  605. 21:02desires are divinely manifested. So the
  606. 21:04desire is actually just the breeze that
  607. 21:06precedes the train in the subway tunnel.
  608. 21:08Mhm. Right? And so what we do when we
  609. 21:11embody the manifestation, it's like
  610. 21:13we're readying ourselves for the
  611. 21:15opportunity that's already on the way.
  612. 21:16So that you get to feel to like make
  613. 21:19love to your dream. Mhm. So that when it
  614. 21:22shows up, you feel deserving.
  615. 21:24You feel ready and that you start to
  616. 21:26vibrate at the same frequency of the
  617. 21:29dream. Cuz so many of us when we're
  618. 21:31manifesting something big, there's a
  619. 21:32piece of that still feels unworthy.
  620. 21:34And when you get out of And that happens
  621. 21:36in the mind, right? That fear, that
  622. 21:38unworthiness that happens in the mind.
  623. 21:40So these are really embodied manifesting
  624. 21:42tools. So it's like we're bringing that
  625. 21:43desire into the body and swirling it. So
  626. 21:46I I talk in terms of um
  627. 21:49I'm trying to make this language really
  628. 21:50accessible for folks. So what I'm I'm
  629. 21:52calling this is pleasure prayer. Just
  630. 21:54simply using your pleasure to pray. As
  631. 21:56we build the charge in our hoo-ha, which
  632. 21:58again is like a really simple a really
  633. 22:00simple term that is all genders, male,
  634. 22:03female, trans, cis, all genders. And it
  635. 22:05includes the anatomy and the energy
  636. 22:07center. Mhm. Um so we start to build
  637. 22:09that charge in the hoo-ha, we let it
  638. 22:10build all the way up into the heart, and
  639. 22:12then all the way up into the head. And
  640. 22:14the moment of peak pleasure, it's like
  641. 22:16you're dedicating that that energy to
  642. 22:20your vision, to the thing that you want
  643. 22:21to create. And And that's a really
  644. 22:23foreign idea for a lot of people too
  645. 22:25that you could actually dedicate your
  646. 22:26pleasure to something. Mhm. Because it's
  647. 22:29we're in this like sort of
  648. 22:31masculine zero sum like goal-oriented,
  649. 22:35well, let me just like get off and be
  650. 22:37done, right? Or just stress release. Or
  651. 22:39it's like a I think Regina calls this
  652. 22:41and I am sorry, but she calls it a
  653. 22:43crotch sneeze.
  654. 22:47Which I you could never unhear that
  655. 22:48term.
  656. 22:50But this is a very different practice,
  657. 22:52right? This could take 20 minutes, an
  658. 22:53hour. And it's it's really about simply
  659. 22:57building the pleasure and the charge in
  660. 22:58your body and dedicating it to your
  661. 23:00dream. Now the cool thing is every
  662. 23:01single time we orgasm,
  663. 23:03um we don't make a baby.
  664. 23:06Right? Because if we did, it would be
  665. 23:07very crowded on Earth.
  666. 23:10And so like thank goodness that doesn't
  667. 23:12happen every single time. And yet we
  668. 23:14have that level of creative power
  669. 23:17available to us in that orgasmic state.
  670. 23:20And so it's like where are we directing
  671. 23:21that? The veil is thin. And when I ask
  672. 23:23people how they feel after they orgasm,
  673. 23:25it's usually
  674. 23:27peaceful, blissful,
  675. 23:30connected, pure,
  676. 23:33beyond myself,
  677. 23:35melted, joyous. And And that is a really
  678. 23:39powerful place to manifest from. Much
  679. 23:42more powerful than like you're driving
  680. 23:44to work, picking up your kids, going to
  681. 23:45get milk, got to get the dog food before
  682. 23:47your vacation. Like to manifest from
  683. 23:48that stressy, fear place, it's there's
  684. 23:51no fertile soil for the seeds to take
  685. 23:53root. Mhm.
  686. 23:55Mhm.
  687. 23:56How do you see pleasure and sensual
  688. 23:59sexual energy, building that energy, and
  689. 24:01the um difference in the manifestation
  690. 24:04quality of laughter?
  691. 24:06Ah. I said this to you my boyfriend
  692. 24:08yesterday. He went to a comedy show last
  693. 24:09night. It's the opening of a new show um
  694. 24:12in Austin. And I said, "Hey, Blue on my
  695. 24:15podcast said that, you know, when you're
  696. 24:17in aisle three at the grocery store an
  697. 24:19orgasm is not available to you, play is,
  698. 24:22laughter is. It is a release. It is this
  699. 24:25like you're in on the cosmic joke.
  700. 24:27You're flooding Again, you're flooding
  701. 24:29your brain and body with beautiful
  702. 24:30endogenous bliss chemicals." And so I
  703. 24:33invited him. He was going with his
  704. 24:34co-founders and friends. I was like,
  705. 24:35"What if you guys use this as a
  706. 24:36collective prayer time?" And so he
  707. 24:39didn't use it as a collective prayer,
  708. 24:40but he did himself. He was like in this
  709. 24:42heightened ecstatic cuz laughter is an
  710. 24:44is its own ecstatic state, right? There
  711. 24:46is like laughter meditation, laughter
  712. 24:48yoga where you just laugh and laugh and
  713. 24:50laugh. And And so he did. He would place
  714. 24:52some orders from these heightened
  715. 24:54elevated states. So I think, you know,
  716. 24:56you're right. Like if if if sensuality
  717. 24:59or
  718. 25:00um
  719. 25:01erotic energy is not available to you
  720. 25:03for any zillions of reasons that it's
  721. 25:05not, you know, you're with your mom uh
  722. 25:08at at church or something, then yes, we
  723. 25:10can use laughter and play. Mhm. You do
  724. 25:13it so well with your son. And it is such
  725. 25:16a gift to witness the way that you
  726. 25:17interact with your son. Your son is
  727. 25:19nine?
  728. 25:20He'll be five.
  729. 25:21Oh, five. I know. It's He seems like
  730. 25:23he's nine.
  731. 25:24He's so like
  732. 25:26he's so youthful, of course, but like so
  733. 25:28developed. Like his conversation, his
  734. 25:31communication, his presentation of his
  735. 25:33paleo intelligent dinosaur project with
  736. 25:34his friends and the way that he's
  737. 25:36describing it to them. The way his
  738. 25:37friends are so interested in what he's
  739. 25:39got to say as opposed to be like, "Oh,
  740. 25:40boring." They're so fascinated. They're
  741. 25:42asking questions. He's been playing
  742. 25:44drums and dancing. But the most
  743. 25:46important thing is that you're right by
  744. 25:47his side as his student, laughing and
  745. 25:49playing with him. And I see when you
  746. 25:52weave with him that you see through his
  747. 25:53eyes and therefore receive the gift of
  748. 25:56magic that is always around us.
  749. 25:59However, as adults we've become
  750. 26:00disconnected with that latent genius
  751. 26:03that you have rekindled, reactivated
  752. 26:06within your relationship with Jasper.
  753. 26:08And I think that this is like prime
  754. 26:10manifestation space, too. If you two are
  755. 26:12laughing together in the genius of
  756. 26:14finding the magic in the mundane. Yes.
  757. 26:16And he really is my biggest teacher. And
  758. 26:19thank you for like reintroducing these
  759. 26:21concepts of of play and laughter as
  760. 26:23manifesting tools cuz I don't think I
  761. 26:25would have connected those dots Mhm. uh
  762. 26:28so easily. So truly thank you for that
  763. 26:30gift. Um and yeah, he's well I can't
  764. 26:32wait for you all to really meet and drop
  765. 26:34in cuz he's so special.
  766. 26:36wait to play. He's so special. So you're
  767. 26:39also the queen of meditation.
  768. 26:41Um and you have a course called Ziva.
  769. 26:45Um and there have been hundreds of
  770. 26:47thousands of people that have gone
  771. 26:48through this program.
  772. 26:49Well, 50 so far. 50,000.
  773. 26:5150,000? Okay, so we're almost there.
  774. 26:5350,000.
  775. 26:54is one click away from 100.
  776. 26:55Yeah, yeah, yeah.
  777. 26:56It took me 10 years to do 50, but let's
  778. 26:57go for the next 100 in the next 50,000
  779. 26:59is a lot of humans, though. Yeah, and
  780. 27:01just to clarify, it's not like 50,000
  781. 27:02people have downloaded an app. Like
  782. 27:0450,000 people have like gone through a
  783. 27:0615-day training and learned to do this
  784. 27:08on their own where they don't need me
  785. 27:09anymore cuz I'm really big on
  786. 27:11self-sufficiency and now have like a
  787. 27:13twice-a-day practice that they can do
  788. 27:15for the rest of their lives. So how do
  789. 27:17you teach meditation, right? Because we
  790. 27:18I think that we've got this expe- or
  791. 27:20this idea collectively, maybe, that when
  792. 27:24you meditate, you close your eyes, but
  793. 27:25it's more so just like thinking with
  794. 27:26your eyes closed. Mhm. But like how do
  795. 27:29you teach meditation? How do you get
  796. 27:32people into a place of being like, "Ah,
  797. 27:34four kids
  798. 27:36and I got a day job and I got all these
  799. 27:38responsibilities. Why is meditation
  800. 27:40important? How do I get started? And why
  801. 27:42would it be important for me to take
  802. 27:44some sort of course when
  803. 27:46the general perspective of meditation is
  804. 27:48just close your eyes?"
  805. 27:50Well, some Well,
  806. 27:51I mean, try it. You know what I mean?
  807. 27:52Like you are not a good data point,
  808. 27:54okay? So like
  809. 27:56you're like a very special fish. But for
  810. 27:58most people, if they just close their
  811. 28:01eyes, like that's what their parents did
  812. 28:02to them to torture them for punishment.
  813. 28:04Go to time out. People When I mean, I
  814. 28:07anyone listening, like when's the last
  815. 28:08time you sat down and closed your eyes
  816. 28:10and didn't do anything for 3 minutes,
  817. 28:134 minutes? Probably for most people,
  818. 28:15never. They weren't listening to a song,
  819. 28:17journaling, you know, actively thinking
  820. 28:20about something
  821. 28:22or or sleeping. Right? And so it's not
  822. 28:25something that we're trained at. And And
  823. 28:27I really would argue that meditation is
  824. 28:29a skill.
  825. 28:30And And it's fascinating to me that
  826. 28:32people won't take the time to learn a
  827. 28:34skill that is going to optimize the
  828. 28:36thing that is making every single
  829. 28:39decision in our lives and printing every
  830. 28:41single cell in our bodies. We're like,
  831. 28:44"Oh, I don't have time to meditate." I'm
  832. 28:45like, "What the [ __ ] else are you
  833. 28:47doing?"
  834. 28:49Like truly. Like cuz people don't
  835. 28:51understand how much stress is costing
  836. 28:54us. Like it is truly making us stupid,
  837. 28:57sick, and slow. And if you look
  838. 28:59globally, you know, I mean, there's so
  839. 29:00many shifts happening, but the whole
  840. 29:01world went through basically a
  841. 29:03near-death experience. The whole world
  842. 29:04faced its mortality in a different way,
  843. 29:07you know, over the past few years. And
  844. 29:09so the ripple effect of that is that
  845. 29:11some people It's woken some people up,
  846. 29:13you know, you face death and it wakes
  847. 29:14you up, it makes you really live. For
  848. 29:16some people, it was very traumatizing
  849. 29:18and and really created many many many
  850. 29:20layers of stress. And now we see that
  851. 29:22stress
  852. 29:25playing out in this fight or flight. So
  853. 29:27many people are looking for an enemy,
  854. 29:28they're looking for someone to blame.
  855. 29:29And now there's this unprocessed trauma.
  856. 29:31Even like even for me, like in New York
  857. 29:33City, I had an amazing friend group of
  858. 29:3524 people. 23 of them left New York in
  859. 29:38the pandemic. And like that was like a
  860. 29:40bougie high-class problem as far as
  861. 29:43problems go with COVID. But still losing
  862. 29:45my friend group felt traumatic. And I
  863. 29:46didn't do a therapy session on that. I
  864. 29:48didn't do any tapping on that. So, I
  865. 29:50have this like unprocessed stress in my
  866. 29:53body from that. And that's just one tiny
  867. 29:54little drop of the collective stress
  868. 29:56that the planet has gone through. And
  869. 29:58so, we're seeing the ripple effect of
  870. 29:59that now where we're where we're
  871. 30:00bifurcating. You're the enemy. You're
  872. 30:02the enemy. They're the enemy. We're all
  873. 30:03looking to fight something. Mhm. When
  874. 30:06actually, if collectively we were to get
  875. 30:08into stay and play, if we were to get
  876. 30:10into that sympathetic nervous system or
  877. 30:13parasympathetic, right? That rest and
  878. 30:15digest, we wouldn't be so quick to be
  879. 30:17looking for an enemy or someone to
  880. 30:19blame. We would actually just have more
  881. 30:21resilience to feel it. So, actually have
  882. 30:23on my last retreat, I had a woman who
  883. 30:25has 10 children. Not one, not two, not
  884. 30:28three.
  885. 30:2810? 10. You need a mini bus. Yeah. Yeah.
  886. 30:33I mean, really like a total mystery to
  887. 30:35me, but she meditates every day twice a
  888. 30:36day. I have taught CEOs of Fortune 500
  889. 30:39companies, like Oscar award winners, NBA
  890. 30:42players, like people who are really
  891. 30:44{quote} {unquote} busy. Mark Hyman says
  892. 30:46that he now
  893. 30:48when he does Ziva, it gives him back 3
  894. 30:50hours in his day. So, a lot of the drum
  895. 30:53that I've been beating over the past 10
  896. 30:54years has been like, "Hey, this thing is
  897. 30:56going to give you more time. It's going
  898. 30:58to make you more money. It's going to
  899. 31:00make your sex better." And so, I very
  900. 31:02much was wrapping the powerful medicine
  901. 31:04of meditation in the candy coating of
  902. 31:07sex and money.
  903. 31:08And which that's true.
  904. 31:10Like those that's true. And then it
  905. 31:13creates this beautiful foundation to to
  906. 31:15build these other spiritual practices on
  907. 31:17top of. Mhm.
  908. 31:18So, I woke up this morning, and I was
  909. 31:20walking around the the house, and I had
  910. 31:22no idea. Didn't even realize you were in
  911. 31:24the corner of the room meditating and
  912. 31:25just having your little moment in your
  913. 31:27little space to just drop into that
  914. 31:28solitude. And even though there was my
  915. 31:30noise moving around the house and
  916. 31:32talking to the dog, before I realized
  917. 31:33that you were actually meditating, I was
  918. 31:35when I I looked over at you, and there
  919. 31:36was just this this peacefulness and this
  920. 31:38stillness that was just emanating all
  921. 31:40around you from this constant every
  922. 31:43single day twice a day or once a day?
  923. 31:45Twice a day. Mhm. To check in
  924. 31:48with the center. And and what I've
  925. 31:50noticed is even just when I look at you
  926. 31:52in that state, I see you
  927. 31:55like a grand oak tree. And your roots
  928. 31:58are going deeper and deeper and deeper
  929. 32:00into the center of the earth. So, that
  930. 32:01then, you know, things happen. A podcast
  931. 32:03and this and then a plate smashed and
  932. 32:06dogs over here barking and then this
  933. 32:07happens and this is just, you know,
  934. 32:09whatever. Like get the text message from
  935. 32:10the thing that you didn't want to hear.
  936. 32:12So, the wind is blowing. However, the
  937. 32:15tree is only as sturdy as the depth of
  938. 32:17the roots. Mhm. And the depth of the
  939. 32:19roots is a contribu- contribution of
  940. 32:22every morning and every night,
  941. 32:24non-negotiable, you drop into that place
  942. 32:26of stillness so that then when you're in
  943. 32:28the presence of stress, strong energy,
  944. 32:31or conversation that's challenging, you
  945. 32:34feel so grounded and rooted in your
  946. 32:36presence that when the wind blows, the
  947. 32:39tree's not being uprooted. It may sway
  948. 32:40slightly, but it's not going anywhere.
  949. 32:44Thank you for that reflection. And and
  950. 32:46one thing I wanted to say is when when
  951. 32:48you're like, "You claim so much, but you
  952. 32:49don't apologize." When I was in college,
  953. 32:52I went to Florida State University. I
  954. 32:54was a theater major.
  955. 32:55FSU? FSU. Go Noles, baby.
  956. 32:58That's a party school. It I was the
  957. 32:59number one party school when I was
  958. 33:00there.
  959. 33:01Yeah. Yeah. Just I might have
  960. 33:02contributed to that. We're rich country.
  961. 33:04I can definitely see you upside down on
  962. 33:06a beer barrel.
  963. 33:07Oh, yeah. I definitely did like what are
  964. 33:09they called? Like headstands keg stands
  965. 33:11for my 21st birthday.
  966. 33:13Yeah. I came out from
  967. 33:14from
  968. 33:16England, and I was in like military
  969. 33:18boarding school. And um
  970. 33:21I went to college in Florida. Oh. Yeah.
  971. 33:24Um
  972. 33:25in between Tampa and Orlando in in
  973. 33:27Lakeland. Oh. It was a small private
  974. 33:29college. What school? Um Florida
  975. 33:31Southern College. FSU? No, FSC. FSC. So
  976. 33:35close to you.
  977. 33:36FSU was you. FSC was me.
  978. 33:38All these letters.
  979. 33:40Um yeah, so I wasn't that far away from
  980. 33:41you, but Florida's a party place.
  981. 33:43Yeah, it's it's a whole 'nother
  982. 33:45university down there. But I remember
  983. 33:46this one time we would have a call
  984. 33:47board, and the call board is where they
  985. 33:49would put like they here's the new cast
  986. 33:51of the new show, and here's the new
  987. 33:53schedule. It's like it was like nervous
  988. 33:55system of the whole theater school. And
  989. 33:57I went up to look and see like, you
  990. 34:00know, did I get the lead? Did I get the
  991. 34:01role that I auditioned for? And I was
  992. 34:03trying to make my way to the front. I
  993. 34:04was like, "Oh, sorry. Oh, excuse me. I'm
  994. 34:07I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." And I
  995. 34:10apologized like six times on the way to
  996. 34:12the board. And this this senior girl
  997. 34:13pulls me aside. I was a freshman. And
  998. 34:15she was like, "Stop apologizing.
  999. 34:18You don't have anything to apologize
  1000. 34:19for." I was like, "Oh, I'm so sorry."
  1001. 34:22I was like apologizing for apologizing.
  1002. 34:24And so, it got on my radar. So, the fact
  1003. 34:27that you say that back to me is actually
  1004. 34:28like a really big compliment. But then
  1005. 34:31when I was acting and then teaching
  1006. 34:32acting and helping run auditions, it
  1007. 34:35tells you so much when you're behind the
  1008. 34:37table and you watch a thousand people
  1009. 34:38come into a room wanting a job,
  1010. 34:41and how many people walk in and it's
  1011. 34:43like, "Oh, is it okay if I get sit this
  1012. 34:45chair? Oh, I'm so sorry. Can I Is it uh
  1013. 34:49and they're just so uncertain, so
  1014. 34:51unsure, so apologetic for their very
  1015. 34:53existence. And it makes you nervous. It
  1016. 34:56makes you nervous to be around that
  1017. 34:57energy. And so, that's when I started to
  1018. 34:59really cultivate it like, "If anyone
  1019. 35:01deserves to be here, I deserve to be
  1020. 35:03here, too." Um my friend Susan Blackwell
  1021. 35:06says, "No one above, no one below,
  1022. 35:07haters to the left." Like no one's
  1023. 35:09better than you, no one's worse than
  1024. 35:11you.
  1025. 35:11above, no one below, haters to the left.
  1026. 35:15I love
  1027. 35:16it. Yeah, that feels like a very blueish
  1028. 35:17slogan. That's brilliant.
  1029. 35:20That's great. Okay. Yeah.
  1030. 35:22Actually, you should have Susan
  1031. 35:23Blackwell on if you're interested. She's
  1032. 35:25in a brilliant She's a Tony
  1033. 35:26award-winning writer, performer. She
  1034. 35:28consults with Disney and Pixar. Whenever
  1035. 35:32I give talks, I hire her to like help me
  1036. 35:36craft it and just like make it like
  1037. 35:39like make sure that the the essence of
  1038. 35:41what I want to communicate comes
  1039. 35:42through. If I I've scripted a talk
  1040. 35:44literally one time in my life, but the
  1041. 35:45one time that I did, I hired Susan.
  1042. 35:49Oh, that sounds amazing. And what I'm
  1043. 35:51also receiving here is that
  1044. 35:53sisterhood has been such a huge
  1045. 35:55implementing part of your path.
  1046. 35:57Yeah. From your experience with Layla to
  1047. 36:01Mama Gina Regina,
  1048. 36:04to the women in your life that have
  1049. 36:06like, you know, even this woman that
  1050. 36:07pulled you aside and was like, "Stop
  1051. 36:09complaining." Oh, and stop stop stop
  1052. 36:10stop complaining. Stop apologizing for
  1053. 36:13your very existence.
  1054. 36:14And then then in return, the permission
  1055. 36:17that you've also granted me in your
  1056. 36:19presence. Like there's there's something
  1057. 36:20that there's a theme here that I'm
  1058. 36:21picking up on. Would love for you to
  1059. 36:23just speak into the role that sisterhood
  1060. 36:26has played in the evolution of your
  1061. 36:27consciousness and the claiming of the
  1062. 36:28magic of who you are today.
  1063. 36:30Yeah, so what's so funny is I just had
  1064. 36:31this thought this morning because
  1065. 36:33as I was getting ready and doing my
  1066. 36:34makeup, I was on a Zoom call with um
  1067. 36:37this thing called Council of Queens, and
  1068. 36:39it's an entrepreneur group. I think
  1069. 36:40there's eight of us. It's like eight
  1070. 36:42female entrepreneurs in the wellness
  1071. 36:44space, and we've been doing it now for
  1072. 36:46about 9 months, I think. We meet once a
  1073. 36:48month, 2 hours. And it's just a place to
  1074. 36:51bring our greatest successes, our
  1075. 36:53greatest challenges um because it is so
  1076. 36:56unusual. It's like less than 3% of of
  1077. 37:01um
  1078. 37:02like less than 3% of female-owned
  1079. 37:05businesses cross the seven-figure mark.
  1080. 37:08And that's like an abysmal figure. 3%.
  1081. 37:123%? 3% of female-owned businesses cross
  1082. 37:14the seven-figure mark. Yeah. And so,
  1083. 37:16it's a really
  1084. 37:18tiny It's like a small pool. And so, to
  1085. 37:21be able to support each other and help
  1086. 37:23each other and ask those questions. And
  1087. 37:25because just like sex is shamed, so is
  1088. 37:27money. And for it to be a woman who's
  1089. 37:29making money, and certainly a woman in
  1090. 37:31the spiritual space making money, it's
  1091. 37:33like, "How dare you? You know, you you
  1092. 37:36should not want to put your son in
  1093. 37:38school or wear clothes or pay rent." And
  1094. 37:41it's just the fact that we're willing to
  1095. 37:43like that it's totally fine for
  1096. 37:45petroleum executives to make hundreds of
  1097. 37:47millions of dollars, but if someone
  1098. 37:49who's teaching meditation and raising
  1099. 37:51the consciousness of the planet, they
  1100. 37:52should be poor because that is holy.
  1101. 37:55Like I I It's a podcast for another day.
  1102. 37:57But sisterhood. Right before I got here,
  1103. 38:00I was on a call.
  1104. 38:00that's a whole subject in itself. I'm so
  1105. 38:02down to go down that path. Great.
  1106. 38:04Honestly. So, I was on this Council of
  1107. 38:06Queens. I mean, we're in Queendom West.
  1108. 38:08I live in Queendom East. So, like that
  1109. 38:10sisterhood feels really strong to me. I
  1110. 38:12have an amazing sister. Her name is
  1111. 38:13Jessica. She is 7 years older than me.
  1112. 38:16And and we've had such a beautiful,
  1113. 38:19fascinating relationship because 7 years
  1114. 38:21is a lot, right? It's a big gap. Where
  1115. 38:23it's like she very much mothered me.
  1116. 38:25Like my mom worked a lot when I was
  1117. 38:27little. And so, my sister played a huge
  1118. 38:29role in as a parental role to me. And
  1119. 38:32then moved out when she was 16. And so,
  1120. 38:34I was nine when she moved out. And so,
  1121. 38:37we're now like my mom just turned 80,
  1122. 38:39and we got to really like be a team
  1123. 38:41throwing my mom's 80th birthday party.
  1124. 38:43And so, and my mom comes from a family
  1125. 38:45of 10. And it was nine women, one man.
  1126. 38:47And the man died early. So, it's really
  1127. 38:49like I I matriarchy is like in my
  1128. 38:52in my cells. Mhm.
  1129. 38:56I can feel it. It runs strong, and it's
  1130. 38:58good medicine.
  1131. 39:00Um then I think that this is like a
  1132. 39:01great segue into what you just talked
  1133. 39:04about. Like this is a really juicy topic
  1134. 39:06here around
  1135. 39:08um
  1136. 39:09what it means to be a woman on the
  1137. 39:11spiritual path that is making money for
  1138. 39:13what it is that she's creating and
  1139. 39:14that's what the shame and guilt that
  1140. 39:15comes with that. And how do you think
  1141. 39:19that or if if at all, do you think that
  1142. 39:21that shame is related to sexuality or
  1143. 39:24like interwoven in some sort of way?
  1144. 39:25Mhm. That's interesting cuz, you know,
  1145. 39:27they're both at the root, right? Like
  1146. 39:29creativity, survival, money, sex,
  1147. 39:31they're all these like lower chakras.
  1148. 39:33Uh-huh. And so, if they're blocked or if
  1149. 39:37you're not talking to them or accessing
  1150. 39:39them, and then they can all they can
  1151. 39:41both sort of wither, you know, your
  1152. 39:42sexuality, your sensuality, and your
  1153. 39:44abundance.
  1154. 39:45What I have found is that in the past
  1155. 39:47years, I took a 3-month sabbatical last
  1156. 39:49year, and Ziva had its best financial
  1157. 39:51year to date. So, that I mean, that was
  1158. 39:54that was wild evidence to me that
  1159. 39:57actually being in my feminine, leaning
  1160. 39:59back, making space for new cognitions,
  1161. 40:02being in magnetism and receptivity
  1162. 40:05is the frequency of the time, which is
  1163. 40:08very different than how I started the
  1164. 40:10business. It was a different age in
  1165. 40:112010. It was a different world. Like it
  1166. 40:14was I mean, my book is called stress
  1167. 40:15less accomplish more. I was like,
  1168. 40:18meditate so you could accomplish more.
  1169. 40:20Just different paradigm.
  1170. 40:22Um,
  1171. 40:23and so I do think that what it proved to
  1172. 40:25me, taking that sabbatical, making space
  1173. 40:27to birth and nurture these new things
  1174. 40:30that wanted to come through, and then
  1175. 40:32the fact that more people were drawn to
  1176. 40:34my work, more people were seeking me
  1177. 40:37out, it felt like a real high five from
  1178. 40:39nature of like, keep going. Keep going.
  1179. 40:41Like the world needs this message. I
  1180. 40:43know it's scary to talk about sex, even
  1181. 40:45say the word sex, and people get like
  1182. 40:47hella triggered, you know.
  1183. 40:49And and I again, I'm Southern Baptist.
  1184. 40:50Like I've not even really talked to my
  1185. 40:52mom and sister too much about this work.
  1186. 40:54Like that's the thing that's going on in
  1187. 40:55my mind. I'm like, I seem brave and I
  1188. 40:57seem super claiming, but like there's
  1189. 40:59still like I haven't really sat my mom
  1190. 41:01down and be like, hey, so I have a dream
  1191. 41:03about 80,000 people climaxing in Dallas
  1192. 41:05Cowboys Stadium at the same time.
  1193. 41:08Will you be there?
  1194. 41:10Like I haven't really done that yet. She
  1195. 41:11probably is not a subscriber for the
  1196. 41:13Daily Shavuot podcast. I think we're
  1197. 41:15safe.
  1198. 41:16But unless you like pull up this clip on
  1199. 41:17social and someone sends it to her
  1200. 41:19Facebook.
  1201. 41:21Ah. So, you know, there's many ways that
  1202. 41:24I'm brave and there's many ways that I'm
  1203. 41:25not, but actually money was a tough one
  1204. 41:26for me. Like I remember I would get
  1205. 41:29those comments of like, how dare you?
  1206. 41:30Like, you know, how dare you charge
  1207. 41:32money for your meditation class and
  1208. 41:34meditation should be free cuz it's not
  1209. 41:35only being a woman, it's not only being
  1210. 41:37the spiritual space, not only making
  1211. 41:38money, but because we have price
  1212. 41:40anchored meditation as free, right? That
  1213. 41:43we think that it's only monks that are
  1214. 41:44doing it. And by the way, definition of
  1215. 41:46a monk, well,
  1216. 41:47there's lots. But in India, you're
  1217. 41:49either a monk or you're a householder,
  1218. 41:51and it's less than 1% of the world's
  1219. 41:53population that is monastic by nature.
  1220. 41:55And that means that like you don't want
  1221. 41:56to have a family. You don't want to have
  1222. 41:58sex with people. You don't want to live
  1223. 41:59in society. You actually want to be
  1224. 42:00reclusive and celibate. That's your
  1225. 42:02desire.
  1226. 42:04And for us to try and be monastic when
  1227. 42:06we're not does not make us more holy.
  1228. 42:09Right? And I think it's one of the big
  1229. 42:10games of translation that has made us
  1230. 42:12feel unnecessary shame around sexuality
  1231. 42:15and unnecessary shame around money
  1232. 42:17because we think that the monks, because
  1233. 42:19they have these seemingly superpowers,
  1234. 42:21it's not because they're special, it's
  1235. 42:23just they're just have different
  1236. 42:24practices. They're contributing society
  1237. 42:26in a different way. If you don't have a
  1238. 42:28job or kids or like too many things to
  1239. 42:32do during the day, then you can help to
  1240. 42:33contribute to collective consciousness
  1241. 42:35through laundering your own
  1242. 42:36consciousness. So, it's just a different
  1243. 42:37modality versus people like us, people
  1244. 42:40that are householders who want to have
  1245. 42:41kids and have jobs and be in society,
  1246. 42:43we're doing different styles,
  1247. 42:46and so they require less time, but we do
  1248. 42:50those styles so that we can get good at
  1249. 42:52life.
  1250. 42:54We don't meditate to get good at
  1251. 42:55meditation. We meditate to get good at
  1252. 42:56life. And part of being good at life is
  1253. 42:59providing for a family and having
  1254. 43:02partners and having great sex. Like this
  1255. 43:05is so it's like to deny yourself
  1256. 43:06abundance, to deny yourself sexuality
  1257. 43:09does not make you closer to God.
  1258. 43:13So, let's continue to unravel the shame
  1259. 43:15and the guilt that is holding these
  1260. 43:17specific pieces captive while also
  1261. 43:20recognizing that we can live in a
  1262. 43:22reality where we can receive it all,
  1263. 43:24which is I think is actually sometimes
  1264. 43:26very triggering to to even say that,
  1265. 43:28especially with the amount of suffering
  1266. 43:30that is happening on the planet for
  1267. 43:31people when you say, oh, well, you can
  1268. 43:33have it all. And then it can kind of go
  1269. 43:35into this narrative of privilege. And of
  1270. 43:37course, there's many different layers
  1271. 43:38around that specifically. However, what
  1272. 43:41I'm hearing from you is the depth or the
  1273. 43:44deepening of your feminine principle, of
  1274. 43:46your magnetism, and that is found in the
  1275. 43:48stillness. And the stillness is found in
  1276. 43:51carving out very like specific times of
  1277. 43:53non-negotiable meditation and navigating
  1278. 43:57the internal waters so that we can
  1279. 43:58actually align with the reality that is
  1280. 44:00there for us as opposed to hustle,
  1281. 44:02chase, push down, step on, dog eat dog,
  1282. 44:07go out and make it happen. Yes, there's
  1283. 44:10a degree of aligned action because if we
  1284. 44:11just sit on our sofa at home and we just
  1285. 44:13meditate all day, then actually it's not
  1286. 44:15the energy is not being put in motion.
  1287. 44:18However, the aligned action but based
  1288. 44:20from a place of I know who I am, I know
  1289. 44:22why I'm here, and I know how I serve,
  1290. 44:23and I've anchored this in my morning and
  1291. 44:25night is now aligning you with a
  1292. 44:28magnetic force field so that when you
  1293. 44:29show up to the space, it's not about
  1294. 44:31what you do, it's about who you be while
  1295. 44:32you do it that allows it to come to you
  1296. 44:34with ease and grace. Yes, so well said.
  1297. 44:36As a matter of fact, just this morning
  1298. 44:37we're talking to Matrix, our DP over
  1299. 44:39here.
  1300. 44:40And and he was saying like from watching
  1301. 44:42all these episodes and seeing all these
  1302. 44:43people, he's like, you know, the people
  1303. 44:44who are making it are the people who are
  1304. 44:45doing both. They're saying the prayers
  1305. 44:48and they're walking the walk. Like it's
  1306. 44:49not just about the 5D. It's not just
  1307. 44:51offer up the prayer and take a nap. And
  1308. 44:53it's not just hustle and grind. It
  1309. 44:56really requires that masterful
  1310. 44:57simultaneity of like absolute clarity of
  1311. 45:00the vision and full and total detachment
  1312. 45:03of the result and taking, like you would
  1313. 45:06say, aligned aligned action.
  1314. 45:09Those that I feel myself to be super
  1315. 45:11drawn to and inspired by are the ones
  1316. 45:13that have integrated the masculine
  1317. 45:17go with the feminine flow. The
  1318. 45:21masculine
  1319. 45:23essence of structure, numbers, follow
  1320. 45:26through, being on time, agreeing you
  1321. 45:29know, to to show up at this certain
  1322. 45:30space and this certain time at a certain
  1323. 45:32date, and actually doing that and
  1324. 45:34following through with it,
  1325. 45:36being able to be impeccable with our
  1326. 45:38word.
  1327. 45:40And then that combined effort of showing
  1328. 45:43up and then not needing to be nothing
  1329. 45:45needs to be said per se. It's not like I
  1330. 45:47go there with an agenda, but more so
  1331. 45:49then in the softening of the feminine
  1332. 45:50principle is the embodiment of I know
  1333. 45:53who I am, I know I'm here, and I know
  1334. 45:54how I serve, and my presence alone is
  1335. 45:56already worthy and is already enough,
  1336. 45:59and showing up with that essence with
  1337. 46:00also the masculine that's holding it in
  1338. 46:02place or the structure that's allowing
  1339. 46:04the showing up. But once the showing up
  1340. 46:06is done, the emphasis on it's not about
  1341. 46:09what I do, it's about who I be while I
  1342. 46:12do the thing. The doing is still there,
  1343. 46:14but the emphasis is on the being part
  1344. 46:17that then penetrates the do, if that
  1345. 46:19makes sense.
  1346. 46:20So, that's what I that's what I sense in
  1347. 46:22you very strongly, which is why I'm very
  1348. 46:23drawn towards you and as an inspiration
  1349. 46:26in my life and and and a strong woman
  1350. 46:28that activates me and inspires me by the
  1351. 46:30way that you choose to weave the world
  1352. 46:32and the way that you choose to see life
  1353. 46:33is from a very grounded space.
  1354. 46:37And I think in the spiritual community,
  1355. 46:39there's a lot of individuals that are
  1356. 46:41very much in the 5D. However, when when
  1357. 46:44it comes to like having our feet on the
  1358. 46:46earth and following through with things
  1359. 46:48that we said that we would do, it starts
  1360. 46:50to fall short, and then it's hard for me
  1361. 46:52to receive the teachings
  1362. 46:54of an individual that is not fully
  1363. 46:56embodied.
  1364. 46:58Because it's the embodiment that the
  1365. 47:00frequency lands in the body.
  1366. 47:03So, when you speak, your wisdom lands
  1367. 47:05for me because it's coming from an
  1368. 47:07embodied place.
  1369. 47:09Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. That is
  1370. 47:11the biggest compliment that you could
  1371. 47:12give me because I've spent a lifetime
  1372. 47:15sort of
  1373. 47:17Like I also talk about like mood making.
  1374. 47:19Like there's a lot of people making a
  1375. 47:20mood about meditation, and like now it's
  1376. 47:23on to psychedelics and sex. It's like
  1377. 47:24almost like meditation is passe, and I'm
  1378. 47:26like, we everybody, like
  1379. 47:28please for the love of all things holy,
  1380. 47:30like please start a meditation practice
  1381. 47:32before you start blasting yourself open
  1382. 47:34with 5-MeO-DMT and going to tantra
  1383. 47:36retreats and having orgies. Like all
  1384. 47:38those things can be amazing.
  1385. 47:41Like you know, like truly, I've had
  1386. 47:42great experiences with all of those
  1387. 47:43things. But like if you don't have the
  1388. 47:45ability to like ground and rest and
  1389. 47:48integrate and and change your own seat
  1390. 47:50of consciousness internally, then that
  1391. 47:52stuff can be bifurcating, you know, it
  1392. 47:55can create fractures if you don't know
  1393. 47:57how to reintegrate yourself. I mean, the
  1394. 48:00whole point of it is to be an expansion.
  1395. 48:02Psychedelics, breath work, sacred
  1396. 48:03sexuality, they expand you open, which
  1397. 48:05is amazing. But if you don't know how to
  1398. 48:08bring yourself home or have this
  1399. 48:10foundation on which to build those
  1400. 48:12things, then I find that they can be not
  1401. 48:14not as effective. And to your point,
  1402. 48:16like no one wants to learn meditation
  1403. 48:17from someone who is stressed. No one
  1404. 48:19wants to take financial advice from
  1405. 48:20someone who doesn't have any money. And
  1406. 48:22in this day and age where everyone is
  1407. 48:23becoming a coach, it's like, great. Like
  1408. 48:26if you know A, teach A. If you know B,
  1409. 48:28teach B. So, I'm not like one of those
  1410. 48:29people that's like, everyone's a coach.
  1411. 48:31But it's like, I do think we want to
  1412. 48:33equip people who are on the upward
  1413. 48:35spiral to help people who are not.
  1414. 48:39And to your point, if you're not
  1415. 48:41embodied, if you're not practicing what
  1416. 48:42you're preaching, it's just not going to
  1417. 48:44be as impactful.
  1418. 48:48Yeah, I mean, Matrix is over at the side
  1419. 48:51of this podcast right now. He's just
  1420. 48:52clicking his waving his hands in the
  1421. 48:53air. He's feeling it. He's vibing it.
  1422. 48:56Matrix, the unsung hero of the Daily
  1423. 48:59Shavuot podcast. He really is. We just
  1424. 49:01like massive shout out to Matrix right
  1425. 49:03now for all of the magic and the the the
  1426. 49:04energy that you hold for the the queens
  1427. 49:06that come on this podcast and the kings
  1428. 49:08and everything in between.
  1429. 49:10It's a great follow for you, brother.
  1430. 49:11Um,
  1431. 49:13so moving forward, you you talked about
  1432. 49:16you have a vision for bringing X amount
  1433. 49:18of individuals all in one space and
  1434. 49:21creating a pleasure practice. Uh,
  1435. 49:24I would love for you to just break this
  1436. 49:25down just for a second cuz I'm sure
  1437. 49:27there's somebody that's sitting at home
  1438. 49:28that's probably choking on a the peach
  1439. 49:30that they're eating right now. They're
  1440. 49:31like,
  1441. 49:32like, what? You want to bring all these
  1442. 49:33humans together and do what?
  1443. 49:35Um, and yet also it's this pattern
  1444. 49:37interrupt courageous heart that I do
  1445. 49:40believe is the pioneering energy for a
  1446. 49:41new paradigm. Um, and so, I'd love to
  1447. 49:43hear your perspective on
  1448. 49:45what is your why behind wanting to
  1449. 49:47create an experience where there are x
  1450. 49:50amount of people, large amounts of
  1451. 49:51people in the same space uh creating a
  1452. 49:53pleasure practice. And what do you feel
  1453. 49:55like that would actually contribute to
  1454. 49:57the fabric of the collective
  1455. 49:58consciousness moving forward?
  1456. 50:00So, the original vision I was on my
  1457. 50:02one-year anniversary um in in Santa Fe
  1458. 50:05on the sacred Chigong ground, and I met
  1459. 50:07this amazing woman named Amanda, and she
  1460. 50:09asked for permission and she's like,
  1461. 50:11"May I?" And she put her hands on my
  1462. 50:12knees, and she said
  1463. 50:16tap into my future. And she was like,
  1464. 50:18"That's weird." I was like, "What?"
  1465. 50:20She's like, "This is normally my dream."
  1466. 50:22And I was like, "What?" And she's like,
  1467. 50:23"But this is clearly you."
  1468. 50:25You're on a stage, and it's not just
  1469. 50:26you, there's a lot of women around you,
  1470. 50:28and it's let's just say it's the Dallas
  1471. 50:30Cowboys Stadium, there's 80,000 people
  1472. 50:32there. And and what was weird is that
  1473. 50:34I've been having that vision as well.
  1474. 50:35Like, not Dallas Cowboys Stadium, I
  1475. 50:36didn't know it was 80,000 people, but
  1476. 50:38I've been having a dream of like me and
  1477. 50:39a lot of women in a circle with a
  1478. 50:41stadium of filled with people. And I
  1479. 50:43didn't know exactly what it was, but a
  1480. 50:45few weeks later it's like the whole run
  1481. 50:46of show dropped in. And now now I can
  1482. 50:49feel the frequency of that, and I had an
  1483. 50:51Akashic record reading at New Year's
  1484. 50:52that was like, "Yes, like yes, keep
  1485. 50:54going. Liberation through pleasure,
  1486. 50:57liberation through pleasure, but let go
  1487. 50:58of the container, and let go of the
  1488. 51:00timing."
  1489. 51:01Right? Like, it's not necessarily this
  1490. 51:03container, and if you try and push it on
  1491. 51:05your timeline, then you're going to pull
  1492. 51:06like if you try and pull the rubber band
  1493. 51:08faster than it can sustainably hold
  1494. 51:10itself, you're going to have the
  1495. 51:12snapback, and you're going to create
  1496. 51:14suffering. And they were talking like,
  1497. 51:15you know, burned at the stake type
  1498. 51:16suffering. So, like while I've been
  1499. 51:18really protected so far, it was
  1500. 51:21basically a warning that like on
  1501. 51:22nature's time, not your time. On
  1502. 51:25nature's time, not your time. So, that
  1503. 51:26doesn't doesn't diminish me from the
  1504. 51:28audacity of the dream, because I think
  1505. 51:30that there's magnetism in the audacity
  1506. 51:32of the dream, but what I am now more
  1507. 51:33flexible around is like how we get
  1508. 51:35there, and um and then just last night
  1509. 51:38we had like a little mini council
  1510. 51:40meeting, a few of us. We're so special.
  1511. 51:42We're so special.
  1512. 51:43special.
  1513. 51:44It was you know, myself and and you and
  1514. 51:47Layla and Aubrey and Vilana, and and
  1515. 51:50Aubrey was sort of challenging me on
  1516. 51:51this, right? And he's like, "Why? Why do
  1517. 51:52you want to do this in public? Why
  1518. 51:53press? Why cameras? Like, is this just a
  1519. 51:56[ __ ] you?" And I was like, "No, there's
  1520. 51:58zero [ __ ] you energy in this."
  1521. 52:00It is like the fact that we even think
  1522. 52:04that pleasuring ourselves is sinful or
  1523. 52:07bad or audacious, and yet we'll watch
  1524. 52:10war movies and video games, and the fact
  1525. 52:13that no one's asked for consent to talk
  1526. 52:14about someone being shot, no one asked
  1527. 52:16for consent before punching someone in
  1528. 52:18the face, fighting, boxing. This stuff
  1529. 52:20is happening, people are paying money
  1530. 52:22for that.
  1531. 52:23Fighting someone, killing someone.
  1532. 52:26This is okay,
  1533. 52:28but pleasure, reminding ourselves that
  1534. 52:31God is actually inside of us, that
  1535. 52:33somehow this has become the devil, that
  1536. 52:36this has become wrong and a sin, again,
  1537. 52:39is just so incomprehensible to me. Like
  1538. 52:42I like I really cannot believe that we
  1539. 52:44have managed to forget that we're
  1540. 52:46actually God. And it's been so many tens
  1541. 52:49of thousands of years that it feels
  1542. 52:51audacious when it's really not.
  1543. 52:53And I am not a ding-dong. Like I
  1544. 52:55recognize how much conditioning we're
  1545. 52:57all swimming in, and so I like the idea
  1546. 52:59of us maybe like doing it in private,
  1547. 53:01secretly doing it, getting, you know,
  1548. 53:03500 people, then 5,000 people, then
  1549. 53:0610,000 people, and maybe it's on
  1550. 53:07someone's private land, and we don't
  1551. 53:09bring the cameras yet, we don't bring
  1552. 53:10the press yet, but what I think will
  1553. 53:12happen
  1554. 53:13is that we get into coherence with
  1555. 53:15ourselves, we get into coherence with
  1556. 53:17each other, and we offer up these
  1557. 53:19prayers, not only for ourselves, but we
  1558. 53:21offer up these prayers for the
  1559. 53:22collective.
  1560. 53:23And I know that you have seen this
  1561. 53:24before, right? Like, there's one person
  1562. 53:27praying is amazing, a thousand people
  1563. 53:29with the same prayer is 1,000 x more
  1564. 53:34powerful. It's not a thousand times more
  1565. 53:36power, it's it's to the infinite. We
  1566. 53:38used to start to talk multitudes more
  1567. 53:39power.
  1568. 53:41And so, my theory is that if we can get
  1569. 53:44tens of thousands, maybe eventually
  1570. 53:45stadiums, you know, network together,
  1571. 53:48people all climaxing in like thinning
  1572. 53:50the veil between the unmanifest and the
  1573. 53:52unmanifest, right? In these
  1574. 53:54extraordinary ecstatic states holding a
  1575. 53:56collective prayer for the species that
  1576. 53:58the planet is regenerative, that humans
  1577. 54:00are living in harmony with the planet,
  1578. 54:02that we are living in harmony with each
  1579. 54:03other, my theory is that it will change
  1580. 54:06the timeline of the species. And the
  1581. 54:08reason why this does not feel audacious
  1582. 54:09to me is that if we don't system if we
  1583. 54:12don't pattern interrupt,
  1584. 54:14then like the bus is currently heading
  1585. 54:16off the cliff.
  1586. 54:19Like it's
  1587. 54:21It's like or or or we could just let the
  1588. 54:23planet keep burning.
  1589. 54:25Does that feel like a smart like that
  1590. 54:26seems audacious to me, actually. And
  1591. 54:28that's what I said to you yesterday in
  1592. 54:29the kitchen, I said, "Thank you so much
  1593. 54:31for your courage." Or the kitchen
  1594. 54:33somewhere.
  1595. 54:34Um, and your response was something
  1596. 54:37along the lines of
  1597. 54:38I mean, I see that there, so we like
  1598. 54:41we run ourselves off the the edge of the
  1599. 54:43cliff. Like
  1600. 54:45it's kind of just like the choice is
  1601. 54:47choice.
  1602. 54:48And I thought that was
  1603. 54:49such a beautiful response, because it
  1604. 54:52does place an emphasis on the way that
  1605. 54:55we are weaving in the world, the way
  1606. 54:56that we are consumering, the way that we
  1607. 54:59are treating each other, the wars that
  1608. 55:01are living within inside of our own
  1609. 55:02heads, therefore subsequently
  1610. 55:03contributing to the wars that we see on
  1611. 55:05the planet, the division mentality. I
  1612. 55:07mean, there's just so much that's going
  1613. 55:09on, the way that we're operating from
  1614. 55:11this
  1615. 55:13this
  1616. 55:14forward is that we we're finite right
  1617. 55:16now. We don't have,
  1618. 55:17you know, much much time here.
  1619. 55:20even the world we want to be living in?
  1620. 55:23Is this really what we choose?
  1621. 55:25Like, if we could make a different
  1622. 55:26paradigm, would we?
  1623. 55:28You said said something about the the
  1624. 55:30hair analogy of how much time we've
  1625. 55:32actually been here. Oh, yeah.
  1626. 55:34Can you share that?
  1627. 55:36So, in the Museum of Natural History,
  1628. 55:37which I go to a lot because again, I
  1629. 55:38have a four-year-old paleontologist in
  1630. 55:40my family. Um, so there's this beautiful
  1631. 55:42called the Hayden Planetarium, there's a
  1632. 55:43giant sun, and it's basically like the
  1633. 55:45whole building. It's like four stories
  1634. 55:47high, whole sun, and they they made it
  1635. 55:49to to give you a scale of like, here's
  1636. 55:51Mercury, and here's Earth, and here's
  1637. 55:52Jupiter, so you can see the size of the
  1638. 55:55sun in relationship to the other
  1639. 55:56planets. And then there's this spiral
  1640. 55:58walkway that goes all the way around the
  1641. 56:00sun, and it basically you start on the
  1642. 56:01third floor, and it's the beginning of
  1643. 56:02time, like however many hundreds of
  1644. 56:04millions of years ago. And you take one
  1645. 56:07step is like a hundred million years in
  1646. 56:09each step, and you just see like, "Oh,
  1647. 56:11one floor down, here's dinosaurs, and
  1648. 56:13here's another era of dinosaurs, and
  1649. 56:15here's another era of dinosaurs. Oh, and
  1650. 56:16here's like
  1651. 56:18reptiles, and here's the and here's
  1652. 56:20trees." And then the last step you take,
  1653. 56:23there's a single strand of human hair.
  1654. 56:26And that is how long humans have been on
  1655. 56:28Earth.
  1656. 56:30And it's this real lens shift. Like, you
  1657. 56:33pull the lens way back, and you realize
  1658. 56:36like
  1659. 56:37we're so narcissistic, and we can't help
  1660. 56:39but think that this is all there is, but
  1661. 56:42the
  1662. 56:42Earth has been around for a long time.
  1663. 56:46Really long time.
  1664. 56:48And and so, when you think that like
  1665. 56:50dinosaurs probably thought that they
  1666. 56:51weren't going to go extinct,
  1667. 56:53you know, and people are like, "Oh, save
  1668. 56:54the planet, save the planet." Like, this
  1669. 56:55is not about the planet. The planet will
  1670. 56:57be fine. She might shake us off, but she
  1671. 57:00will be fine. The question is, what do
  1672. 57:02we want our existence to be on this
  1673. 57:04planet for the time that we have left?
  1674. 57:07And and my I mean, now especially being
  1675. 57:09a mom, you know, my son is four. By
  1676. 57:112050, I'm not great at math, but let's
  1677. 57:14say that puts him in his like 30s or
  1678. 57:16something. There's supposed to be more
  1679. 57:17plastic in the ocean than fish by 2050.
  1680. 57:20Say that again. By 2050, there's
  1681. 57:23supposed to be more plastic in the ocean
  1682. 57:25than fish. Like, by volume, by weight.
  1683. 57:28And like the thought of my son like
  1684. 57:30swimming in plastic and not seeing any
  1685. 57:32fish in the ocean, it's like
  1686. 57:35No, that's not it. And just like you
  1687. 57:37will abuse and neglect your body when
  1688. 57:40you don't feel connected to it, I feel
  1689. 57:42that's what we're doing to the Earth.
  1690. 57:43We're like abusing and neglecting the
  1691. 57:45Earth because we don't feel connected to
  1692. 57:47her. And so again, the hypothesis is
  1693. 57:49that if we can reconnect to the ecology
  1694. 57:51of our own bodies, then we can start to
  1695. 57:53reconnect to the planet. And if at the
  1696. 57:56very least, it's just like
  1697. 57:58we learn how to pray in a more powerful
  1698. 58:01way,
  1699. 58:02and if we take all of the energy that we
  1700. 58:06spend worshipping our worries,
  1701. 58:08and start to spend that worshipping our
  1702. 58:10dreams,
  1703. 58:11like one, it would just be a lot more
  1704. 58:12fun place to live. And two, they might
  1705. 58:15even start coming true.
  1706. 58:19Just you saying worshipping our
  1707. 58:21worries as opposed to worshipping our
  1708. 58:23dreams, I can feel
  1709. 58:25the just the internal shift that happens
  1710. 58:28in the way that I perceive my day,
  1711. 58:31and how the worries are so much louder
  1712. 58:34than the dreams.
  1713. 58:36And yet, the dreams are actually all
  1714. 58:37here. It's just because of how loud the
  1715. 58:39worries are, and then it obstructs my
  1716. 58:41ability to receive the dream that's
  1717. 58:42actually already been made manifest. And
  1718. 58:45that's the individual responsibility
  1719. 58:47that we all have to genuinely create a a
  1720. 58:50more beautiful world that our hearts
  1721. 58:51know is possible.
  1722. 58:53Is
  1723. 58:55to take ownership of what's going on
  1724. 58:57between our ears.
  1725. 58:58And I would offer that that to do that,
  1726. 59:01to make that shift organically from
  1727. 59:02worshipping your worries to worshipping
  1728. 59:04your dreams, is very very challenging,
  1729. 59:06almost impossible, if you don't have a
  1730. 59:09handle on your neurochemistry. Like, if
  1731. 59:10you are swimming in adrenaline and
  1732. 59:12cortisol and fight or flight, if your
  1733. 59:14body thinks that it's being attacked at
  1734. 59:16any given moment, it is virtually
  1735. 59:18impossible to actively worship your
  1736. 59:20dreams. I mean, you can, but it's hard.
  1737. 59:23It requires a lot of white knuckling.
  1738. 59:25And so, that's why I mean, I know I'm
  1739. 59:27evangelical about this, but truly like
  1740. 59:28meditation is like step one for
  1741. 59:31manifesting, because you have to get out
  1742. 59:33of fight or flight and into stay and
  1743. 59:34play. You have to change this
  1744. 59:35neurochemistry so that you have the
  1745. 59:38luxury, really the privilege then of
  1746. 59:40being able to direct your attention
  1747. 59:42where you choose. Because otherwise this
  1748. 59:44meat suit's trying to survive and you're
  1749. 59:46not going to be able to override
  1750. 59:48survival in the body with some happy
  1751. 59:50thoughts about your dreams. Mhm. Mhm.
  1752. 59:54How do you feel like meditation plays a
  1753. 59:55role in allowing us to shift from
  1754. 59:59survival into thriving uh within the
  1755. 1:00:01somatic experience of our body and our
  1756. 1:00:03nervous system? So when we get stressed
  1757. 1:00:05we go into fight or flight, right?
  1758. 1:00:06Everybody knows this. But like the
  1759. 1:00:08physiologically what happens is um
  1760. 1:00:11body starts preparing for a tiger
  1761. 1:00:13attack. So it will um
  1762. 1:00:16heart rate increases
  1763. 1:00:18um
  1764. 1:00:20blood pressure increases, bladder and
  1765. 1:00:22bowels evacuate so you can be light on
  1766. 1:00:24your feet so you don't you shouldn't
  1767. 1:00:25like weighed down. Your vision starts to
  1768. 1:00:27narrow so you're focused on your
  1769. 1:00:29opponent. Your um skin uh sorry, your
  1770. 1:00:32digestion floods with acid to shut down
  1771. 1:00:34digestion because you need all hands on
  1772. 1:00:36deck to fight or flee the tiger. That
  1773. 1:00:38acid seeps onto your skin so you don't
  1774. 1:00:40taste very good if the tiger bites you.
  1775. 1:00:42Your blood starts to thicken and
  1776. 1:00:43coagulate so if the tiger bites you you
  1777. 1:00:45don't bleed out. So all of these
  1778. 1:00:47chemical responses are really useful if
  1779. 1:00:49your demands are predators. But now our
  1780. 1:00:52our demands in most parts of the world
  1781. 1:00:53are not predatory attacks.
  1782. 1:00:55Right? Now it's in-laws and deadlines
  1783. 1:00:58and emails and banks collapsing and new
  1784. 1:01:01AIs coming out and just being asked to
  1785. 1:01:03adapt, adapt, adapt. And so now what we
  1786. 1:01:07do when we meditate and with Ziva
  1787. 1:01:09specifically we're giving the body rest
  1788. 1:01:10that's five times deeper than sleep. So
  1789. 1:01:13within a 15-minute meditation it's the
  1790. 1:01:15equivalent of almost an hour and a half
  1791. 1:01:17of rest but without a sleep hangover on
  1792. 1:01:18the other side. And so then you go in
  1793. 1:01:21and you de-excite the nervous system and
  1794. 1:01:22you start to get rid of that adrenaline
  1795. 1:01:23and cortisol which are stress hormones
  1796. 1:01:25which make the body acidic and not taste
  1797. 1:01:27good. And then almost immediately we
  1798. 1:01:29start to flood the brain and body with
  1799. 1:01:30dopamine and serotonin which are bliss
  1800. 1:01:32chemicals which feel good in the moment
  1801. 1:01:35but then good news they stay with you
  1802. 1:01:36even outside of the meditation. So that
  1803. 1:01:38bliss starts to permeate the other 23
  1804. 1:01:40hours of the day which is what you're
  1805. 1:01:41responding to when you see like those
  1806. 1:01:43roots or that groundedness or that
  1807. 1:01:45claiming that I'm like that's what that
  1808. 1:01:46is. That's me accessing
  1809. 1:01:49this
  1810. 1:01:50this thing that is much bigger than me
  1811. 1:01:52and then bringing it with me into the
  1812. 1:01:54rest of the day not just in meditation.
  1813. 1:01:57Um so but main but main thing for most
  1814. 1:01:59people it's like get out of fight or
  1815. 1:02:01flight, get into stay and play. Like get
  1816. 1:02:04the body into not only homeostasis but
  1817. 1:02:07into this alkaline blissed out nature so
  1818. 1:02:10that you have options so that you can if
  1819. 1:02:13you choose.
  1820. 1:02:16Mhm.
  1821. 1:02:19See right there, that's a prime example
  1822. 1:02:21of you marrying your study and your
  1823. 1:02:25wisdom and your time spent learning and
  1824. 1:02:27then also your intuition and your
  1825. 1:02:29feeling in the realm of understanding
  1826. 1:02:31emotional waters and those two partner
  1827. 1:02:33together allows the message to land.
  1828. 1:02:35Mhm.
  1829. 1:02:36Like I understand what you're saying and
  1830. 1:02:39it lands in a very grounded, practical,
  1831. 1:02:42helpful way for my mind to digest so my
  1832. 1:02:45body can receive it. Yes.
  1833. 1:02:47That's all I'm doing. You're like how
  1834. 1:02:49can you teach people to meditate? All
  1835. 1:02:51I'm doing like honestly like I don't
  1836. 1:02:53teach a one-day meditation course but I
  1837. 1:02:54could because it's not hard. It is
  1838. 1:02:57simple.
  1839. 1:02:58But people confuse simplicity with
  1840. 1:03:01ease, right? It's not easy. It's simple
  1841. 1:03:04but it's not easy. So and you most of
  1842. 1:03:07what I'm doing in my course is is
  1843. 1:03:09getting people's intellect to catch up
  1844. 1:03:11to why they should devote their most
  1845. 1:03:14valuable resource which is their time
  1846. 1:03:16and their attention to sitting still and
  1847. 1:03:19still and doing nothing. Now we're not
  1848. 1:03:21doing nothing, okay? Just like when you
  1849. 1:03:23go to sleep at night you ain't doing
  1850. 1:03:24nothing. If anyone has read Why We Sleep
  1851. 1:03:27you know that we are not doing nothing.
  1852. 1:03:29You go like three days without sleep and
  1853. 1:03:30you like increase your chances of cancer
  1854. 1:03:32by a zillion percent or something. Like
  1855. 1:03:33sleep is imperative for the body's
  1856. 1:03:35restorative processes. You're not doing
  1857. 1:03:38anything. You are not doing anything
  1858. 1:03:40when you're sleeping but body is healing
  1859. 1:03:42very, very elegantly. Same thing is true
  1860. 1:03:45in this style of meditation. You're not
  1861. 1:03:47doing anything. You're not visualizing,
  1862. 1:03:49you're not chanting, you're not praying,
  1863. 1:03:51you're not breathing. You're not doing
  1864. 1:03:54anything but your body sure is. Like
  1865. 1:03:57body goes into this deeply restful
  1866. 1:03:59state. Um the the neuroplasticity starts
  1867. 1:04:02to increase between the right and left
  1868. 1:04:03hemispheres of the brain which
  1869. 1:04:04strengthens the corpus callosum which is
  1870. 1:04:06the bridge between the right and left
  1871. 1:04:08hemispheres. So left brain is in charge
  1872. 1:04:10of individuality but right brain is in
  1873. 1:04:11charge of totality. And most of us like
  1874. 1:04:14you said there is sort of either or.
  1875. 1:04:15We're either like fully here in the 3D
  1876. 1:04:17totally stressing about our taxes and
  1877. 1:04:19traffic or we're just like it's fine.
  1878. 1:04:21I'm going to manifest on my vision board
  1879. 1:04:23and I'm never going to go to work again.
  1880. 1:04:24And to have this like simultaneity of
  1881. 1:04:27like I know how to pray and I know how
  1882. 1:04:29to move my feet. This is quite rare and
  1883. 1:04:32it's why I love this tradition so much
  1884. 1:04:34and it's why I love this practice so
  1885. 1:04:35much is because it puts equal weight on
  1886. 1:04:38both the human and the divine, the right
  1887. 1:04:40brain and the left and that the practice
  1888. 1:04:42itself is about merging the two
  1889. 1:04:45together.
  1890. 1:04:45Mhm. Which is that beautiful awakened
  1891. 1:04:47state which is what we see depicted as
  1892. 1:04:49the third eye, the eye of Horus. It's
  1893. 1:04:52it's right in between the left and the
  1894. 1:04:53right hemispheres, the masculine and the
  1895. 1:04:55feminine poles of the uh uh lobes of the
  1896. 1:04:58brain which sits in the center point
  1897. 1:05:00which is the third eye to be able to see
  1898. 1:05:01beyond the illusion and beyond the veil
  1899. 1:05:03of the distortion of everything we've
  1900. 1:05:04been told up until this point that's not
  1901. 1:05:06in vibrational alignment with our truth
  1902. 1:05:07or the direction that we're supposed to
  1903. 1:05:08be moving in. Um
  1904. 1:05:10and so it sits there for a reason.
  1905. 1:05:13And I think we can get caught up in this
  1906. 1:05:16this narrative of thinking that what's
  1907. 1:05:17female or feminine is to females and
  1908. 1:05:19masculine is to males. Like it's they're
  1909. 1:05:21so far from that. It is it's a
  1910. 1:05:23recognition of energetics within our own
  1911. 1:05:25psyche and the rebalancing of those
  1912. 1:05:27pieces so that we can activate that
  1913. 1:05:28awakened state that is that beautiful
  1914. 1:05:30sweet balance right between the two.
  1915. 1:05:32So I just want to say thank you, thank
  1916. 1:05:34you, thank you, thank you, thank you for
  1917. 1:05:35the work that you've done to align those
  1918. 1:05:37two um lobes of your brain and to be
  1919. 1:05:40able to create service from that space
  1920. 1:05:42and spaces for other people to be able
  1921. 1:05:44to meet themselves in an empowered
  1922. 1:05:45nature because that's what's going to
  1923. 1:05:46take. And the only way that your
  1924. 1:05:49teachings and what it is that you share
  1925. 1:05:51can really land is from that place of
  1926. 1:05:53embodiment that we talked about before
  1927. 1:05:55and it is uh landing and it is impacting
  1928. 1:05:58so many people. 50,000 people that have
  1929. 1:06:01gone through your program. Holy [ __ ]
  1930. 1:06:02that's so many humans. Um from your
  1931. 1:06:05books to

  1933. 1:06:09activations to your pleasure practice to

  1936. 1:06:15a lover and to being a um and now a
  1937. 1:06:18podcast host as well which is so
  1938. 1:06:20exciting.

  1970. 1:07:20podcast is called Why Isn't Everyone
  1971. 1:07:22Doing This? And the amazing Blue is one
  1972. 1:07:25of our guests.
  1973. 1:07:27Um and it's really built on that idea of
  1974. 1:07:28like when you find something that's so
  1975. 1:07:30good and you have that thought like why
  1976. 1:07:31isn't everyone doing this? So we're
  1977. 1:07:33going to examine those and then and then
  1978. 1:07:35the why. Um
