Hey babes, welcome to the Manifesting Doll podcast. I'm Barbara Orban from NoDietBabe.com.
(01:05):
So in the last episode, I talked a little bit about my relationship struggles
and manifesting love and I got some amazing feedback of people really resonating
with that and feeling also So some people,
you know, worried about their age and the pressures that we feel from society
(01:26):
around our 30s. And I mentioned that...
I was single right up until almost 36 years old.
So actually, Robbie and I made things official on my 36th birthday.
So that was a long journey from being single and having a few short relationships along the way.
(01:53):
In the last podcast, I mentioned I had a long-term relationship when I was young.
And then after that my heart was really closed
for a very long time unknowingly and I
did surface level manifest manifestation techniques and
I was able to open my heart enough to manifest a relationship but it wasn't
(02:14):
the right relationship and then I started doing lots of programs there are lots
and lots of dating programs online and I did lots of dating programs and honestly Honestly,
it just led me down the wrong path.
To be honest, a lot of them, because I had to work on codependency patterns,
(02:36):
being able to set boundaries and really honoring how I feel.
So the truth is with weight struggles, there's usually a huge disconnect with your body.
Okay. With weight struggles that read any metaphysical book about weight issues. shoes.
And this is where I started as well.
(02:57):
I read the metaphysical reasons for weight gain and like pick up any book and
you'll just get this short paragraph of a few lines.
I have to share them on my Instagram stories where it just talks about the metaphysical
reason for weight gain is like not feeling your emotions or feeling shame and guilt.
(03:19):
And it can't be like more true, like it is so true and I remember first reading
the from Louise Hay this reasoning back.
In my 20s and not quite grasping it because I was so unconscious and I just
did not have the level of awareness that I have today.
(03:42):
And I'm sure in 10 years time, I'll be saying the same thing.
I'll be saying 10 years ago, I didn't have the level of awareness that I have
today because that's just the nature of diving into this self-development work.
You're just going to, as you commit to this journey of healing,
it's a lifelong journey and you will continue to to uncover things that you
(04:03):
were like, holy shit, I never saw that before.
Anyway, like I said, weight issues are about not being connected to yourself.
And guess what happens if you're playing out codependent dynamics? It's the same thing.
And you're going to probably call yourself an empath.
(04:24):
I hear that word a lot and people are like, I'm just an empath and I'm just
a people people-pleaser.
But deeper, there's these patterns of codependency that you want to like look
out for. Because if you're saying I'm an empath, it sounds like,
there's a lack of boundaries there and there's a lack of separation between
your emotions and the person, the emotions of another person and,
(04:48):
and being, having empathy for someone else just means holding space for their emotions.
It doesn't mean completely absorbing them. Okay.
And that's a huge correlation with weight issues.
Okay. So if you have weight issues and you're also like, I'm an empath.
I want you to recognize the connection there.
(05:09):
And so that's pretty much everything.
I'd help with all of this. So don't panic.
If this is you, this is literally what I'm here to help you with through my
offers, through my courses, through my coaching programs.
And so I also received an email this morning, which was beautiful, from a client.
(05:31):
She's like Like two years on, I'm so happy I made that investment with you,
you know, because the investment into my programs is multiple four figures, yeah?
And the feedback that I get is how profound it is and from years to come afterwards,
how she's being impacted.
And she said, years later, I'm still being impacted by that coaching program
(05:56):
was the best investment.
I'm just so happy I made that investment. You've changed my life.
She's just feeling so comfortable in her body and just completely changed her relationship to food.
She was so scared in the beginning of weight fluctuations and I taught her how
to connect to her body more and manifest a reality where her weight is stable.
(06:20):
So much changed for her and we go into so much work in coaching with my clients.
And that is my intention always is that.
I call upon the highest level clients where it's a beautiful co-creation.
It's for the highest good of all.
(06:40):
And so if you feel it in your heart, if you feel you're drawn to it,
like you're going to have transformation for years to come because that's what
I'm manifesting for my clients.
And here we are years later and I still get testimonials from clients from years
ago telling I got a recent testimonial from a client from a year ago.
(07:02):
She had lost 20 pounds during that time working with me.
And then this is Diana.
She lost 20 pounds during working with me a year ago, and she messaged me recently
a year later, and she said, I've lost another 20 pounds, so 40 pounds in total now.
(07:24):
And so she is continuing to get results, okay?
And so this is a beautiful thing. This is what I intend for people.
And what I want is that you continue to do the work after.
So it's a continuation of this healing.
And that's exactly what I did with my relationship stuff too.
(07:46):
So during my 20s, I was just doing surface level techniques.
Like I said, I was, I was, I was really just affirming that I trusted in the
universe's timing, like trusted God's timing.
And I would listen to audios that would calm me down because I remember being
28, I think around 28 years old and really panicking people around me were getting married.
(08:09):
And it was such a horrible, like just, you know, almost like inducing panic,
panic attacks type of feeling and, and absolute falling into depression when
I went through a breakup in my thirties,
I think, I think it was in my thirties.
Oh my God. Like just, I went through so much, so much heartbreak,
(08:30):
so many problems with dating.
And then when, yeah, so when I was 30 and I was just feeling depressed and everything,
I came across some more manifestation content, which was
a bit more deeper just not
just that surface level of trust the universe and your
time will come and a lot of people just say that as
(08:52):
well like oh just like stop thinking about
it and it will happen and I get
that people mean well but when they say things like you're too picky or just
like wait and the person will come like they're super super wrong so one of
my affirmations And one of the things that I actually helped my friends with,
(09:15):
which a lot of them, surprisingly,
after I helped them because I was going through the transformation,
I naturally started coaching them.
And they all met partners as well.
So they all met their soulmates as well after me because I just naturally start.
Being a bit of a coach sometimes when I'm on the phone. And so they ended up
(09:36):
manifesting their partners too, just because of my energy and what I was,
what was coming through me at the time from what I was working on.
And the things that, the things that were going on for me was saying to them,
I was like, forget that you're being too picky.
You're not being picky enough. You're lowering your standards because you don't
(09:59):
believe that you can have what you want.
These people who who say you're being too picky don't understand that they're
in love and you can't be picky to be in love.
It's about what you're being a vibrational match to though.
And that is coming from your childhood, from your subconscious mind.
So you're going to have to work on some of your perspectives of how you're brought
(10:21):
up and stuff lingering in your subconscious.
And you may need need some assistance with that. Like I, I hired a coach and
without that coach, I don't think I personally don't feel that I would have
accessed my blind spots.
I just did not see what was going on. And thankfully I invested in a coach for
(10:43):
six months and I continued the work that she gave me for two years.
Like it took me two years to, to implement what she taught me in that six months.
And, and then, yeah, like Robbie, Robbie came along, but throughout that time, I,
I had some tough moments and I had to say things to myself, like,
(11:05):
you can't go backwards, you can't go backwards forever.
God's will, I got this one, I think from Amanda Francis, like God's will is
not so fragile. You can break it. God has not forgotten about me.
I think she was saying that as well when she was trying to manifest love as well in her thirties.
And it's just really important that you don't get bogged down by societal expectations.
(11:29):
Here was a reframe that really helped me. me, I was like, let's say heaps of
people are getting married about age 28 or 30, or people are really,
I know I had lots of friends getting married in their early 30s.
So if you're like, I'm 25 or I'm 23 and my friends are getting married.
Yes, same here. I had lots of friends getting married at that early age,
(11:54):
but I also then later on had people getting married around closer to 30.
And I had to go through all of that and feel like I'm a loser and people must
think there's something wrong with me.
Oh, she's so pretty. Why doesn't she have a partner?
There must be something wrong with her. These are some of the messages we've
heard in society that can really affect us subconsciously and cause us to carry
(12:19):
a different vibrational frequency.
So these are some of the things that I had to work on. So my perspective that
really helped me through that was if people are getting married,
let's say people get married at age 30,
okay, and you're spending, you're meant to be spending the rest of your life with that person.
So let's say you live till 100, right?
(12:42):
You're spending another 70 years with that person.
I know I'm being generous with the ages, but I like to be generous with age,
okay? Let's think positively.
Let's live a long, happy life. Okay.
So let's say you live till a hundred and you're like thriving in love until
you're a hundred years old with this person and you both die peacefully at the
(13:06):
same time in arms, like in the notebook. Right.
And let's just say you're, then you're married for 70 years and then you're
worried about meeting the right person at a a certain time frame,
you're willing to potentially rush into the process.
(13:28):
And I don't want to say marry the wrong person, but I know a lot of people get
divorced in their late 30s, early 40s because they rushed into getting married before 30. Yeah.
And so let's just think of it that way. If you're, if it's not aligned for you,
but you kind of just go, no, no, no, I'm at this age, I, I need to get married because I'm at this age.
(13:53):
It's, it's what I have to do because that's what society tells me to do.
That's, and then you start just romanticizing getting married,
but not actually living in the reality of your relationship.
You're just fantasizing and romanticizing about getting married.
Married and you completely ignore your actual feelings in the relationship and
(14:15):
the person that's in front of
you, why would you just, what I thought to myself was why would I do that?
Because I was with somebody that I could marry at age 31 and we broke up because
I said this isn't right for me.
Even though he was an amazing person, I felt like it wasn't the person,
like Robbie, how I feel about Robbie.
(14:38):
That's what I wanted. And I knew that there was more for me and holy shit, that was so hard.
So many people did not understand why I was breaking up with him at age 31 and
that I should just stay because I'm too old and blah, blah, blah.
And I was like, I'd rather, why wouldn't you wait?
I waited another five years to meet the love of my life.
(15:03):
And then I get to spend the rest of my life with the love of my life.
So you're willing to potentially, you know, not wait an extra five to 10 years
to meet the love of your life.
So you can spend the next 60 to 70 years with somebody that you actually love
and, and not just love, but has the characteristics and the dynamic that you wanted.
(15:29):
Like, really, really? But I'm saying this because I want you to snap out of it.
I want you to get conscious of the unconscious tendency of societal programming to do this to you.
You know, I'm saying this with love because my intention for you is that you
(15:49):
wake up and you get connected to yourself and what your actual desires are and
you trust that you can have the desires of your heart.
And that's what I did. I believed in the desires of my heart and I,
but I had to go ahead and do the work. Okay.
It's not just surface level stuff. It's not just going to magically use script
at once and then it shows up.
(16:10):
It's going to take, oh my God, daily, daily transformational subconscious work
and healing and working on patterns, usually around codependency and stuff like that.
So So anyway, I do a lot of that with my clients because sure enough,
weight issues usually manifest from patterns of low self-esteem,
(16:33):
codependency, toxic shame.
So they do overlap a lot. And it's a huge part of weight issues being about
not getting our needs met.
And like I said before, with people who say, I'm an empath and I'm a people
pleaser, I'm a perfectionist. And I'm like, yes, I know, because that's literally
(16:54):
what causes the manifestation of weight issues.
Of course, I'm being general here and there's a lot more specificity to it when
I work with my clients, but hopefully you're starting to get the gist of what I'm saying.
So anyway, with relationship stuff, oh my God, I had to start dating to see
(17:17):
what I was was a vibrational match too.
Because in my twenties, I just kind of hid away and was like,
I just trust in God's timing and it's going to show up on my doorstep.
And that's fine for some people, but my heart was closed and I was what my coach
called anti-dependent.
So it means when you're independent and your heart is closed because of past hurts.
(17:43):
And so I had to learn learn how to open my heart, but also date simultaneously
with boundaries. Like that was so interesting. Holy shit.
I look back and I'm just like the dating stories that I have, you guys.
Oh my God. I could create, I wanted to create like an anonymous blog at the
(18:03):
time, but I did not have the guts because it was just so funny.
The stories that I had about dating. but what
happened I have a beautiful story about
contacting my spirit baby so
highly recommend the book spirit babies it's by a psychic who a late psychic
(18:25):
that helped people get in touch with their spirit baby so they could conceive
a baby now I'm not trying to conceive and I wasn't trying to conceive,
this was, I think, July 2021 that I got the book.
Spirit babies. And I was really connected to the universe at that time.
(18:50):
So when you do a lot of healing work, and I mean, like on a daily basis,
if you keep your energy quite clean and you're very connected to yourself,
you will also have, we all can like have psychic abilities.
Okay. But I do believe it requires a level of connection and openness to the
(19:11):
universe. Like you have to to have this openness.
And I had spent a lot of time developing that. And so I was very,
very available to receiving some kind of contact from my spirit baby.
And I set the intention and it happened so quickly because I was so aligned, like within 20 minutes,
(19:32):
my spirit baby, or if it's not my spirit baby, it's something in the universe,
like my inner guides showing me that I'm going to have a baby.
And actually I've scripted as well, stuff that's, that's like downloaded stuff from written down.
(19:53):
Like there's a Gabrielle Bernstein prompt where you're like contacting your
inner guides and you get a blank piece of paper and then you start free writing
from downloading from your guides. And it's crazy.
They were saying stuff that I'm like, Like, oh, wow, that is actually kind of manifesting now.
Anyway, so I contacted my spirit baby.
(20:14):
And for some of you, I'm very woo-woo, okay?
Like, I'm very quantum physics, manifestation, woo-woo stuff, okay?
So if this is not for you, then just skip this part.
Okay, so I contacted, I set the intention, contact my spirit baby.
(20:35):
But I kind of, like, just let it go. and I was at my parents' house at the time
and I was hanging out with my parents.
Mom and I were just talking upstairs and all of a sudden the radio turns on full, full volume.
Like it was so loud and my mom's like yelling at my dad, why you got the radio on so loud? Turn it down.
(20:59):
And my dad then comes out, he's upstairs with us and the radio is downstairs. Yes.
And we're like, nobody's downstairs. Who turned the radio on?
This is crazy. We're all upstairs.
The radio is downstairs. You can't make this stuff up. Nobody could have turned that radio on.
And the other thing is, mom said she's never turned the radio up that loud to full volume.
(21:25):
That was not at full volume.
She's like, I promise you, I have never had it up that loud.
Loud it would hurt our ears we're old like
we don't want it that loud and so it was up
full volume and it was playing a song and the song was I don't know if you guys
(21:48):
know the song I have to sing it because forgive my singing skill but I have
to sing it it's by Little River Band and it's It's like, hold on,
help is on its way.
I'll be there as fast as I can.
Hold on, a tiny voice did say, somewhere deep inside the inner man.
(22:12):
Anyway, I was just, I get shivers even just saying it because then after the
song finished, the radio turned off, the batteries were flat.
The batteries were flat in the radio.
Anyway, if you go and look up the lyrics to this song, first of all,
it's like hold on, help is on its way.
Like I'll be there as fast as I can, meaning –.
(22:36):
My baby will be there like as fast as it can. Like I just, I have to be patient.
I have to wait. It'll be here as fast as it can be.
Okay. So let me actually just read out the lyrics to you because it's so insane.
Like this is just a message from spirit. Okay. So here's the lyrics for Help
is on its way by Little River Band.
(22:56):
Why are you in so much hurry? Is it really worth the the worry.
Look around, then slow down.
What's it like inside the bubble? Does your head ever give you trouble?
It's no sin. Trade it in. Hang on. Help is on its way. I'll be there as fast as I can.
Hang on. A tiny voice did say from somewhere deep inside the inner man.
(23:21):
Are you always in confusion, surrounded by an illusion?
Sort it out. You'll make out. Seem to make a good beginning.
Winning someone else ends up winning don't seem
fair don't you care hang on help is on
its way I'll be there as fast as I can hang on a
tiny voice did say somewhere deep inside the inner man don't you forget who'll
(23:42):
take care of you it don't matter what you do form a duet let him sing melody
you'll provide the harmony oh my god I'm about to cry because it just don't
forget who will take take care of you, like meaning God.
It don't matter what you do, like he's coming, your partner's coming.
(24:03):
Form a duet, meaning just don't focus on the baby right now,
just form a duet, like just focus on dating.
Let him sing melody, you'll provide the harmony.
Like it's just so beautiful. Why are you in so much hurry? Is it really worth the worry?
Look around then slow down. Help is on its way.
(24:25):
And I met Robbie literally three months after this.
And we've been together two and a half years now.
And a few short months ago, I was telling this exact story to one of my friends
and her dad, her mom and dad were there.
It's actually my sister-in-law's sister and
(24:48):
parents and I told them
this story and I said that it's
the song is help is on its way by little river band
and now so my partner when
I met him Robbie he was living in Geelong at the time he now lives with me but
(25:10):
at the time when I met him he was
living in Geelong and they and and so So Monique, my friend, her dad said.
Do you know Little River Band is named after Monique?
Geelong. And I was just like, what the hell?
(25:32):
Little River Band named after Geelong. So I Googled it. I'm going to Google it now.
And so the band was driving on their way to Geelong and it says,
Little River Band, an Australian rock band, was formed in Melbourne in 1975.
The brand's name was inspired by a road sign they saw while traveling to a gig in Geelong.
(26:01):
And it's just, how can you make this up?
Like, it's just so many synchronicities of the song and the lyrics and the song
Chosen is named after Geelong and Robbie was living in Geelong.
Just, Just, oh, it makes me so emotional. But what I hope this inspires you
(26:21):
is like the magic of the universe and how beautiful and just these moments of,
I have so much gratitude for these moments of magic when you,
the more you surrender to the spiritual work.
And sometimes I feel embarrassed to talk about it. sometimes I feel,
(26:44):
oh, people are going to think I'm crazy because you know what?
If you notice on television, they always portray spiritual, a lot of the time
they portray spiritual people or psychic people to be crazy or the way that
they portray them is kind of forms,
makes society have these negative judgments.
And so I feel self-conscious if I'm met with somebody that doesn't understand
(27:07):
that we're, you know, there's some societal programming and they're a bit They're
a bit like programmed by the matrix, you know what I mean?
And if they're not understanding, okay, no, this is just like a person who's
connected to themselves and the world and the universe and so on.
(27:28):
Sometimes I feel a bit funny about sharing that stuff, but the more you surrender to it and allow it.
So I know if you're listening to this podcast, you are a spiritual person,
but even as a spiritual person, we can sometimes feel ashamed of that.
And so the more you kind of unprogram or unlearn that shame and learn to step
(27:53):
into who you you are and work on that connectedness, you too can get this magical guidance.
Or maybe you already have this magical guidance.
Maybe you already feel this deep connection and you've had similar stories and
amazing stories of guidance as well.
So, you know, trust in that. I printed out the lyrics and I held them and actually
(28:17):
I didn't need them for long to bring me comfort because my man came along. long.
But that was a long time coming. It took me till age 36.
So like I said, if you are stressing about your age, just remember my little
mindset shift of if I have to wait an extra five years, that doesn't matter,
(28:37):
or 10 years, or however long it takes.
I'm willing to surrender to that, but I'm going to do my part.
You have to do your part. You can't just surrender the timeline to God.
You have to actually do your part to become a vibrational match to love.
And work on the subconscious self,
aspects that may be closing you off from what you actually want.
(28:58):
So anyway, that is all for today's episode.
I just wanted to share my story. I've been wanting to share the story of the
spirit baby contact with you guys for a while.
I did not expect to get so emotional, but I'm one of those those people that cry very, very easily.
